Chapter 225 The first stop, Wanwan
"Yuan Qiao..."

Seven sea-going ships straddled the sea, and Jing stood on the deck and looked up.

This is a natural port, suitable for fishing at sea, so the villages gather here.

Yuan Qiao is Taiwan.

The earliest history of Taiwan can be traced back to the Yin and Shang Dynasties. According to records, it was called Loanyu, Yuanqiao.

In fact, Taiwan, and even the southeastern coastal islands, were influenced by the civilizations of the Shang Dynasty and even the Zhou Dynasty.

During the Warring States Period, the book "Yugong" which included the mountains, rivers, terrain, soil, and products of various places also recorded: "Island Yi Huifu, Juewei weaving shellfish, Juebao orange pomelo, Xigong."

The island barbarians here refer to the aborigines of Taiwan.

At that time, Taiwan and Zhuxia had established a certain relationship and were influenced by Zhuxia civilization.

During the Qin Dynasty, the aboriginal forces in Taiwan began to disperse, and there were many different regimes. In addition, the first emperor focused more on the Hetao area bordering the Central Plains and the South Vietnam area, so he did not establish official contact with the islands for a long time.

At the same time, because it is far away, the government is too dispersed, the risk is high and the return is low, Daqin has no idea of ​​intervening in the internal affairs of the islands.

However, the first emperor launched many times to search for immortals in the sea, after all, he couldn't avoid Taiwan.

As for Jing, after becoming a disciple of the Yin Yang family, he has learned a lot of knowledge, and has a certain understanding of Taiwan's history, so he can't even pronounce his name.

After starting from Fusang, Jing's first stop was not Taiwan, but an archipelago.

Naturally, there are also Yi people living here, but the population is even smaller than that of Fusang.

For the time being, it is still a tribal system, with fishing and hunting as the mainstay and farming as a supplement.

Because there are many islands, there are hundreds of people on each island, dozens of people less, and a thousand people at most.

The farming techniques are extremely poor, probably just throwing the seeds on the ground and then letting fate go.

This place was marked by Zhao Si as the Ryukyu Islands on the map. They passed through here when they returned to Qin. Although Jing and his party only had seven boats and hundreds of people, they were placed in the Ryukyu Islands. In terms of combat power, they were enough to unify the entire Ryukyu Islands.

The population of this place is relatively scattered, there are not many large tribes, and the tribes attack each other.

Because the next ocean voyage will be carried out, after Jing landed here, he simply replenished the food and water resources to mark the monument and then set off again.

The geographic location of Ryukyu is quite important. Leave a coordinate and it will be taken down sooner or later.

Daoyi, in fact, is the one that the losers of the ancient times withdrew from the Central Plains.

To be honest, the relationship with the Central Plains culture is not small. During the Yin and Shang Dynasties, they were subject to the Yin and Shang, and the Zhou Dynasty was subject to the Zhou Dynasty. The two sides had exchanges with each other, and there is a clear history of tribute.

Although they are still using oracle bone inscriptions, they already have a crude regime and civilization.

Seven sea-going ships docked at the port, and barbarians from nearby islands spontaneously gathered at the port.

The small board boats that were still wandering in the offshore fishing also rushed to the shore and fled into the crowd in embarrassment.

Holding crude weapons in their hands, they stared at Daqin's ships, full of vigilance.

Jing frowned and rubbed the center of her brows, a little troublesome...

There is no one on my side who is familiar with the other party's language, and no one can communicate with each other. It seems that there is probably a fight.

Actually this is the norm...

The simpler the civilization, the easier it is for violent conflicts to break out, and the more mature the civilization, the easier it is to maintain restraint.

When landing supplies in the Luzon Islands, Jing led a team to destroy an indigenous tribe.

Without knowing where the other party got the courage, dozens of people dared to attack Daqin's sea-going ships in small board boats with crude stone tools.

Or take the initiative to attack...

This time when we arrived at Yuanqiao, the situation was a little better. The opponent could at least see the gap, and maintained a certain degree of restraint. He didn't take the initiative to attack, and his vigilance was greater than his desire to attack.

But looking at the posture maintained by the other party, I know that as long as one side continues to call on the port, war will inevitably break out.

It's not that Jing doesn't want to try to send envoys to communicate, but the language barrier, the lack of translators, and the limited number of crew members, to put it bluntly, Jing is more willing to kill them all than to take the risk of losing one person.

"Light up the flag of Daqin, and continue to berth in Hong Kong!"

wind!
Accompanied by Jing's order, the Qin flag with gold letters on a black background was lifted into the sky over the waters of Yuanqiao. The strong sea wind made the flag roar, and the seven ships began to dock slowly but firmly.

With the start of the Daqin sea ship, the islanders on the shore became more nervous. Some people were panicked, some were angry, and some shouted wildly.

It's a pity that the sea breeze is too strong and I can't understand what the other party is saying.

"Crossbow arrows are on the string, trebuchets are ready, once the opponent launches an attack, immediately fight back!"

Jing is a smart man, he knew at a glance that the range of the opponent's crude weapon was much worse than that of Daqin's.

As long as the opponent dares to attack, Daqin can wander outside the opponent's range and give a powerful counterattack. At worst, he will go ashore in another place after the fight, just to kill chickens and monkeys, and show Daqin's strength, lest the opponent think that he is a soft persimmon, and he has to weigh it if he wants to pinch it .

Jing very much agrees with what Zhao Si once said.

"After going out to sea, communication with the barbarians must be within the range of the Qin Nu!" Jing repeated what Zhao Si had said.

In this era, most areas are still tribal, and they are not so monolithic. It is nothing more than changing places to port. It is a good thing to let the other party understand that Daqin is not easy to mess with through a fight.

"Leader! It's not good! It's not good!"

Inside a "palace", if it can be called a palace...

A few black-and-black guys with bare upper body hurriedly broke into the palace that was comparable to the mansion of the county-level local tyrants in Qin State.

"The people of Qin are here! The people of Qin are here!"

A few guys talked to each other, and a slightly obese middle-aged man sat up in shock when he heard the sound!

"Qin man? Where?"

"The Qin people are at the port!"

Today's island barbarians have gone from competing in the Central Plains to surrendering to the Shang Dynasty and even the Zhou Dynasty, and they are now falling into disintegration.

Right now, the area near the port is ruled by Luan, known as the Daye Ministry. It has independent smelting technology, farming technology, and even historical records in documents. Objectively speaking, Luan is still orthodox, but now it can only shrink back This seaport has a radius of hundreds of miles, and most of the ancestral inheritance has been lost, and the areas suitable for farming have almost been robbed.

Logically speaking, the currently divided Daoyi has no way to know that the Central Plains has been changed to Qin.

Thanks to Xu Fu's blessing...

Xu Fu went out to sea to search for immortals, falsely calling Yuan Qiao Yingzhou, one of the three Penglai fairy mountains.

Although the Daye Ministry at that time was in decline, it was still able to dominate all around with its smelting technology and farming technology.

At that time, the leader of the Daye tribe was Luan's father, Chuan.

Unfortunately, Xu Fu brought hundreds of large ships to the Penglai Immortal Island he was talking about, and was about to land at the port under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Daye.

By the way, they crushed a group of overwhelmed natives who tried to prevent the Qin people from landing.

Chuan angrily summoned his tribe to fight with the Qin people.

Then he was easily crushed, and Chuan died in battle because of this. The Daye tribe was engulfed by all sides because of the big defeat, and Luan was ordered to take the remaining tens of thousands of tribes to abandon the land and wealth to gain a foothold here.

After several years of recuperation and encroachment, the current population of Daye Ministry has recovered to [-].

However, due to the limited terrain here, the land that can be cultivated is really limited, and there can only be so many people. Now the surrounding tribes are guarding against the Daye Ministry. If there is no accident, the Daye Ministry may be locked up for a long time With this population, the former glory of 30 tribes, radiating dozens or even hundreds of tribes, can no longer be restored.

"How come...the Qin people didn't come from this port last time..." Luan's face was full of surprise, puzzlement, fear, and inexplicable powerlessness.

I have moved hundreds of miles, is it the unlucky co-author or the Ministry of Daye?

Isn't this the meteorite's own tracking and positioning?

Although he didn't participate in the last battle, his fear of the Qin people was deeply engraved in Luan's heart.

"Quickly restrain the people, let them lay down their weapons, and don't act without authorization. You go to evacuate the tribe, and I will go to the port in person..."

Luan's obese body exploded with astonishing power at this moment, even ignoring the riding and driving, he directly pulled a war horse and rushed towards the port in a hurry.

The good news is that the territory of the Daye Ministry is pitifully small now, and this port is a rare open port, which is convenient for fishing, so Luan's palace is very close, and it didn't take long to rush over.

Objectively speaking, if Luan boarded a boat and went to sea, he would be considered to have gone abroad.

"Put down the sword! Put down the sword!"

Luan shouted under the protection of the guards. The islanders believed in Luan, put down their weapons one after another, and was restrained by Luan to retreat.

"Let them dock at the port. They are not trying to invade our land, nor are they trying to plunder our food. If you don't resist, no one will be sacrificed!"

……

Jing stood on the deck watching a farce.

A man who looked a little better dressed was riding a horse and shouting under the guard.

Shimai retreated in confusion...

"The leader of the tribe? In short, he is a person who can talk, and it seems that he can try to get in touch with him?" Jing touched Baal, then turned and gave orders.

"Go and prepare to take a boat to the port to contact the other party..." Jing appointed a person alone, and signaled the other party to take a small boat to try to communicate with the other party.

Although there is a language barrier, it is not impossible to establish some simple conventions.

As long as you don't come up, you will meet each other, and you will have a basis for communication.

The assigned soldier, called Wei, was just about to put down the boat to dock alone, but was stopped by Jing again.

"Wait a minute, he's coming..."

A gleam of splendor flashed in Jing's eyes!
The person who restrained the tribe from retreating and laying down their weapons just now seemed likely to be a person of extraordinary status among the other party. With the help of the people around him, he stepped onto the boat.

one person!

Alone!He didn't carry any weapons, and in order to prove his honesty, Luan even took off his coat and exposed his arms.

Luan struggled to row the sails!

The terrifying warships of the Qin people hovered in the sea like sea beasts.

Just now, a wonderful thought flashed in Luan's mind.

Now, the Daye tribe has been locked up by the surrounding tribes, and he wants to use his life to gamble on the future!
(Tomorrow after tomorrow, there are so many tomorrows, March, you must have three shifts tomorrow, don’t let me down again!)
