Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 741
At the port wharf in the southwest of Xinma City, hundreds of armed merchant ships slowly left the port and lined up to the south bank of the Amazon River.

Followed by twenty Aegis ships, and twenty large fishing boats.

Twenty Aegis ships were lined up in a straight line, walking on the center line of the fleet, while twenty large fishing boats were cruising left and right.

Originally, Taichang did not allow Aegis ships to sail in channels other than the main Amazon River, because the draft of Aegis ships was too deep, and as long as the water level of the river channel was shallower, it was likely to touch the bottom and run aground.

This time he has no choice, because he is going to pull people, and other ships can transport goods, but they can't pull people.

It's like an armed merchant ship and a large fishing boat with the same 5000 materials. It would be a bit crowded to stuff the thousand people into it, but an Aegis ship can easily hold more than [-] people.

Twenty Aegis ships can easily accommodate more than [-] people, and all of them can sit in rows on canopy beds. If it's a family, it's no problem to squeeze a bed directly, and you won't be tired at all. .

Armed merchant ships and large fishing boats are not specially designed for carrying people. The fish and goods inside can be piled up, so the load capacity is large, but people cannot be piled up and pressed together.

As for the high-rise gunships, that's even worse. The upper cabins are basically full of ammunition and gun carriages, and there is not much room for people to stand.

Therefore, he can only dispatch the aegis ship.

Fortunately, the water level at the bifurcation from Xinmacheng to the South Bank tributary is very deep. As long as the Aegis ship is not too close to the river bank, there will be no problem.

This time, Taichang not only brought Li Shuchu and Li Shuben brothers, but also Ma Xianglin, Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming, three masters of jungle warfare.

Because the trees in the designated area of ​​Xinma City are almost cut down, they don't have to stare there anymore.

This is undoubtedly good news for Taichang. The soldiers of the Shenwu Battalion are not only brave in fighting, but also good at building cities and docks.

With the participation of [-] to [-] soldiers from the Shenwu Battalion in the construction of Xinma City, it is estimated that the speed will be increased by at least ten times.

Of course, the soldiers of the Shenwu Battalion not only know how to build cities and docks, they also know many things.

On the flagship, Taichang turned the binoculars and glanced at the situation of the fleet, then raised his head and said softly: "Xianglin, are you tired of leading people to cut down trees during this time?"

Uh, this, I'm not tired, it's just too boring.

Ma Xianglin was stunned for a moment, then cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the last general is not tired. The felling of trees and logs is done by machines. We just cut off branches and leaves, dragging trunks and so on. It's still very easy."

Taichang nodded slightly and said: "It's good if you don't get tired. Next, many cities will be built here, and many passages will be opened in the forest. You may have to work hard for a few months until the young and strong of the tribe here learn these basic things." It's almost time for you to rest."

Uh, build many cities and open many passages in the forest?

Then don't cut down trees again!

To be honest, facing those wooden stakes every day is really boring.

Ma Xianglin sighed secretly in his heart, then cupped his hands and said: "No matter what, the emperor just orders, anyway, they are idle anyway, doing some work is considered exercise."

Yes, Not Bad.

Taichang nodded slightly, then waved and said: "Let's go, the fleet will sail for a few more hours, let's discuss it first."

Hearing this, everyone hurriedly followed him to the meeting room.

This Aegis ship is not comparable to an armed merchant ship or a large fishing boat. The Aegis ship was originally designed as a flagship, and the functions on it are simply not too complete.

On the table in the meeting room, there was already a map of Wang Chong's rough exploration. This map showed the area from the mouth of the Amazon River to Xinma City and then to the Giant Horse Tribe.

Taichang didn't ask everyone to sit down, he just asked everyone to stand in a half circle around the front half of the conference table, then pointed to the map and asked: "A Suzu, can you understand the map now, you giant horses Do you know the general area of ​​the tribe?"

Zhao Baiyun will show him various maps when he goes back in the past two days, so he can understand the maps naturally.

A Suzu directly gestured on the map with his fingers and introduced: "Our Giant Horse tribe is roughly distributed from the south bank of the Amazon River to the north bank of the Giant Horse River."

The Juma River is the big river more than [-] miles south of the Amazon River. Anyway, Taichang didn't know what that river was called, so he simply named it after the Juma tribe.

This area is roughly five hundred miles in radius.

Taichang then asked again: "Have you been to all the places in your giant horse tribe?"

How can I have that time.

A Suzu shook his head again and again and said: "No, I have roughly walked around the north bank of Juma River and this mountain forest a few times, and I have never been to most of the other places."

Uh, mountains?

Li Shuben couldn't help coughing, which meant that he wanted to talk.

Taichang nodded slightly and said, "Zhongke, tell me."

Li Shuben immediately asked: "A Suzu, where is this mountain forest, roughly how big is it, and roughly how high is the mountain there?"

Of course, he is very clear about where this mountain is. The question is how high is the mountain and how to describe it.

A Suzu thought for a while, then pointed to a piece on the south side of the map and introduced: "The mountainous area is less than a hundred miles to the northeast of where I lived, and the range is about a hundred miles. They are roughly tens of feet high."

Oh, what a place!
Li Shuben immediately asked again: "Is there a river near the mountain forest that can pass through the Spike warship?"

Hearing this, A Suzu searched carefully on the map, then pointed to a tributary and said, "This river goes half a circle around the north of the mountain, and its width is about one mile. It's no problem."

Very good!
Li Shuben was quite excited and said, "Your Majesty, why don't we go over there tomorrow to have a look?"

This one.

Taichang looked at the map carefully, then nodded and said: "Okay, look at the distance, this place is about two hundred miles away from where we parked, we can go there to have a look, but we have to come back tomorrow afternoon.

After all, we are mainly migratory population these days, and we can take our time looking for places to plant herbs. "

Li Shuben nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, Your Majesty."

Then there is the issue of migration.

Taichang thought for a while and asked again: "Asuzu, will everyone in the Giant Horse Tribe listen to your orders?"

A Suzu nodded and said: "They will obey my orders, our giant horse tribe has this rule."

Taichang asked again: "Then do you give the order yourself or can you give some token to others and let them pass the order for you?"

Uh, token?

I don't have this thing!

A Suzu said inexplicably: "I don't have any tokens. If the distance is too far, I don't have time to go there. I just need someone to bring a message to go there."

So simple?
Taichang couldn't help being surprised and said: "Then what if someone uses your name to spread orders indiscriminately?"

A Suzu shook his head again and again and said: "No, I am the messenger of the gods, they dare not use my name to pass orders indiscriminately."

Messenger of God!
How to say this?

To be honest, this kid really might know some supernatural powers, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to predict that he would come.

Taichang subconsciously wanted to ask what was going on with the art of supernatural power, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it.

It doesn't really make much sense for him to predict the future through the power of light, because he has things in his mind for hundreds of years in the future!
The fleet sailed on the river for about five hours, and finally arrived at the mouth of the big three-forked river.

At this time, the Aegis ship could no longer move forward, and Wang Chong had already received the order to lead thousands of Spike warships to wait here.

He was ordered to come here to investigate the terrain here in detail, because he has roughly explored this side, so in the past three days, he has almost explored the detailed terrain here.

Taichang looked at the detailed map he brought up, thought about it carefully, and then said decisively: "Tomorrow, you will divide your Spike warships into one hundred teams, and take A Suzu's people to pass orders to set up two hundred All the people from the giant horse tribe in Li Nei will take over."

Uh, people from Azuzu?
Asuzu was standing here alone, and he didn't see anyone from the other giant horse tribes!
Seeing this, Taichang couldn't help smiling and said: "Wait a minute, Aluka has been ordered by Asuzu to gather the young and strong from the nearby tribes, and he will be back in about an hour."

Sure enough, about an hour later, Aluka boarded the boat with hundreds of young men from the giant horse tribe.

These young men were still in a daze when they came up, but when they saw A Suzu, they immediately lay down on the ground and kowtowed respectfully.

A Suzu nodded slightly, and then said loudly: "I have ordered that all the tribesmen of the Juma tribe come to assemble with the warships of the Ming Empire, and then migrate to the big city on the other side of the river."

None of the hundreds of young and strong people raised any questions or hesitated, and they all kowtowed immediately: "Respect the order of the great chief."

A Suzu nodded slightly, then waved his hand and said: "Go, everyone get on a warship of the Ming Empire, and take them to gather the clansmen."

Hundreds of young and strong people quickly got up from the ground and followed the elders of the North American Indian tribe who brought them up.

Is this all right?

Taechang is a little confused

He was stunned for a while, and then asked: "How do they know you are the great chief?"

A Suzu pointed to the clothes on his body and said, "Only the great chief of our giant horse tribe can dress like this."

Well, the young men of the giant horse tribe have bare buttocks and bare heads, and there seems to be nothing else on their bodies except leaves and grass ropes.

A Suzu's attire is indeed different.
