Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 728 God's Messenger

At the huge fork in the Amazon and the South Bank, Taichang was staring at the wonderful scene in front of him in a daze.

Everyone thought he was surprised to see such a huge three-forked river in front of him, but he was not.

The reason why he was fascinated was because he felt a call that was vaguely there.

Originally, he felt that he was a little baffled, and he didn't know why he rushed over regardless of the danger as soon as he heard about the giant horse tribe.

This time, he was indeed a little sloppy.

He also visited the front line of Liaodong in person, he also went deep into the grasslands outside the Great Wall, and he also drove himself to conquer Dongying.

However, that was not called any danger, because he was surrounded by large armies those few times, and the situation was basically ascertained. He was absolutely sure of winning, so naturally there would be no danger.

This time it was different, he went deep into the unknown Amazon jungle to meet the great chief of hundreds of thousands of tribes.

Leaving aside whether others will be unfavorable to them, the dangers in the Amazon jungle are everywhere, and the army cannot spread out at all.

Why would he take the risk himself?
He didn't understand it yesterday when he crossed the main trunk with a width of four to five hundred miles, but when he arrived here today, he seemed to understand it.

Something seems to be calling him in the dark!
The great chief of the giant horse tribe?
This person has such great ability?
He looked at the tributary in the middle that was tens of miles wide, and then asked, "Zhongyong, is that the tributary leading to the south?"

Wang Chong cupped his hands without hesitation and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, that's the one."

At this time, the nine hundred households waiting here have already rushed over one after another on wheels. After the ship was combined, they quickly boarded the flagship.

They had seen Taichang standing on the top floor looking out from the binoculars a long time ago, so after boarding the boat, they immediately bowed together and said, "The last general will see the emperor."

Taichang nodded slightly and said: "Okay, let's all come up, combine the detected maps and take a look."

After that, he turned around and walked into the cab.

Seeing this, the nine people hurriedly filed up to the top floor and walked quickly to the cab.

The wheelhouse of this armed merchant ship is a level higher than that of large fishing boats, and the space inside is also relatively large. It doesn't feel crowded with more than a dozen people standing in it.

After the nine hundred households walked in, they took out the blueprints they had detected in their arms and carefully placed them on the big map on the table without Taichang's confession.

Wang Chong didn't talk too much, he just picked up the charcoal pencil, and then drew the small drawings on the big map in detail.

The width near the mouth of the Amazon River is four to five hundred miles. After shrinking here, it is roughly two to three hundred miles. And this tributary goes south, not west. Moreover, a half-foot-sized map represents five hundred miles. Therefore, after roughly half of the drawing, another large map will be attached below.

Fortunately, the large table in the wheelhouse of this armed merchant ship is one foot in size, and there is no problem with a half-foot map placed under it.

Wang Chong worked hard for a while, and finally collected all the maps detected by the nine hundred households on the big map. At this time, everyone's faces were already shocked.

Unexpectedly, the river course in the south is even more complicated than the river course near the mouth of the Amazon River.

This is really a dense spider web!

There are too many tributaries branched out from this tributary in the south, some go southeast, some go southwest, some go straight south, and some even connect to a huge river.

Fortunately, what Wang Chong told him was that he would come back within five hundred miles at the most, otherwise most of the nine hundred households would have not come back at this moment.

Taichang pointed to a wide river about five hundred miles to the south: "Is this another big river tens of miles wide?"

A hundred households immediately cupped their hands and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, the last general ordered someone to drive a Spike warship to go back and forth on both sides of the river, and the width of the river was measured to be about thirty miles."

This should not be the main road of the Amazon, because the west of this tributary is also connected to a river of about [-] miles, and the Amazon River runs from east to west, even if it turns, it is impossible to turn a big bend of four to five hundred miles. .

There should be another big river.

Taichang couldn't help thinking of a bay they encountered when they came along the coastline.

In fact, there is a huge bay less than three hundred miles southeast of the mouth of the Amazon River.

The bay is more than 100 miles wide at the entrance alone, and the depth seems to be more than [-] miles. Anyway, the end of the bay cannot be seen with the most accurate telescope.

At the beginning, he was in a hurry to come to the Amazon River, so he didn't send anyone to explore the bay.

Now it seems that the big river in the south on this map should flow into that bay.

Taichang thought for a while, and then asked: "Can large fishing boats and armed merchant ships reach that big river through the channel of this tributary?"

The hundred households nodded without hesitation and said: "No problem, the widest part of the river passing by the end is five or six miles, and the narrowest point is also one or two miles. Moreover, we have been using bamboo poles to detect the water depth along the way. Large fishing boats and armed There is no problem for merchant ships to go there."

Taichang thought about it again, then nodded slightly and said: "Well, it seems that the chief of the giant horse tribe should live near that big river, Zhongyong, let's pick up that chief of Aluka, and then let him take Let us go to their warchief."

we?

The emperor really wants to go to see Chief Aluka and the Great Chief of the Giant Horse Tribe in person!

Hearing this, Wang Chong couldn't help being stunned.

However, he didn't ask too much.

He chose the word "loyalty" for himself, which means swearing allegiance to the emperor to the death.

He did what the emperor said to do.

He immediately waved without hesitation: "The fleet turned around and entered the easternmost fork."

Soon, a fleet of more than a thousand large and small ships entered the easternmost fork.

The easternmost fork looks quite wide, but in fact it is not very wide nor very long. The main river is about fifty miles long, and the tribe where Aluka belongs is in the main river. Beside the tributary for more than twenty miles.

After the fleet entered the main river channel, it was less than a quarter of an hour before Wang Chong raised his hand decisively and said, "Send the order, stop advancing, and line up."

Immediately afterwards, he pointed to the entrance of a tributary in the front left and said, "Your Majesty, Aluka's tribe is in that tributary."

The reason why he ordered the fleet to stop here is because this is a trumpet mouth, and further inward, the width of the river is only about five miles, and it is a bit crowded when more than a thousand ships rush in.

Taichang thought for a while, then nodded slightly and said: "Order someone to load one hundred bags of corn, one hundred bags of flour, kill two cows, bring the meat, and then go pick out some pots and pans, spices and seasonings, etc. Come on, let's go to Aruka's tribe together."

Uh, the emperor really wants to go to Aluka's tribe.

Well, anyway, it has been checked over there, so there shouldn't be any danger.

Wang Chong nodded, and then went to make arrangements.

Taichang waited for a while, and when the things were almost ready, he climbed down the hanging ladder with dozens of expert guards and got into Wang Chong's car.

Seeing the emperor coming, Wang Chong quickly waved his hands and said, "Let's go."

More than [-] Spike warships started immediately and went straight to the tributary in front left.

It's not that he doesn't want to bring more warships and manpower to protect the emperor. The main tributary is too narrow, especially near Aluka's tribe. It's a bit crowded, if he brings more, the river will be blocked.

After the fleet sailed for about half an hour, the temporary pier was already in sight, and Aluka had already brought the young and strong of the clan there, looking forward to it.

There's no way, the food sent by Daming is so delicious, they finished it in less than two days, and now the clansmen couldn't help crying when they saw Daming's boat!
People in primitive tribes are like this. Eating is the most important thing for them, and it is also the thing they look forward to the most.

Wang Chong couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw his enthusiasm.

Fortunately, last time I didn't give away too much food, otherwise the family might not be so warm.

He directly directed the car to come up to the temporary pier to screw on the screws, and then waved fate to connect the food ships one by one, continuously moving corn, flour and beef to the shore.

When Patriarch Aluka saw this, his face was full of joy, and the young man beside him danced with excitement.

Taichang pointed to the temporary pier and said: "Zhongyong, isn't there two sets of holes on the iron plate on the ship's side? From now on, two rows of iron ladders will be directly placed on it, and a two-foot-wide thick wooden plank will be laid in the middle, so that it will be more secure. Soldiers don’t have to be careful when moving things for fear of falling into the water.”

Wang Chong hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "The general understands."

All these things were moved ashore, and Taichang ordered the guards to go halfway up, and then he came down to the ashore accompanied by Wang Chong and others.

Seeing this, Aluka hurried up to greet him, and said earnestly, "Oh, Mr. Wang, you are so polite, and you brought so many things. How is it? What did the chiefs say?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Baiyun whispered in Taichang's ear.

She is quite familiar with the words of the tribe here, so it is natural for Taichang to take this little girl with her when she travels.

Wang Chong pricked up his ears to listen to Zhao Baiyun's translation, and quickly pointed to Taichang respectfully and introduced: "This is our Emperor Ming, the chief of everyone."

Ah!
Hearing this, Aluka was so frightened that he quickly lay down on the ground, kowtowed respectfully and said, "Aluka pays homage to all the chiefs."

The young and strong people behind him also lay down on the ground, kowtowing their heads one after another.

Seeing this, Taichang couldn't help being dumbfounded.

What's going on here? Could it be that Wang Chong taught them etiquette?
He couldn't help but look at Wang Chong.

Wang Chong shook his head inexplicably, he hadn't taught others etiquette yet, and he didn't know that Taichang would come over in person this time.

This is strange.

Taichang was stunned for a moment, and then said to Zhao Baiyun, "Ask him why he kowtows on the ground."

Zhao Baiyun babbled and asked, and Aluka quickly explained: "This is the etiquette to meet our great chief. Our chief is the messenger of God, and everyone's chiefs should also be the messenger of God, right?"

Messenger of God!
Does the great chief of the giant horse tribe really have any skills?
Uh, how do you say this?

I am the son of heaven, and I can be regarded as the messenger of God.

Taichang simply nodded, then raised his hand and said, "Get up, Aluka, I want to ask you for a favor."

Aluka quickly got up from the ground, and said earnestly: "If you have anything to do with the chiefs, just tell them, and Aluka will definitely help."

Taichang nodded slightly and said: "I want you to lead the way to your great chief."

Uh, this.

Aluka was stunned for a moment, but he still pulled a few young men to explain in detail.

Zhao Baiyun whispered in Taichang's ear again: "Your Majesty, he is afraid that after he leaves, this little food will not be enough for the clansmen to eat for more than 30 days, so tell these young and strong not to be lazy, and must go hunting every day."

Where do you need more than 30 sun rises and sunsets?
Taichang smiled slightly and said, "Tell him, three days is enough."

what?
Aluka couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this.

How can three sunrises and sunsets be enough?
Can they fly over like birds?
