    After dinner, Chen Huaixiu invited the girls to come out to watch the stars together.

    Although, in this era, even big cities do not have too much light pollution, and girls are accustomed to the sky full of stars.  But the bright stars fell on the sea, creating endless silver waves.  This gorgeous and spectacular scene was the only one they had ever seen in their lives.

    In March, the night breeze on the sea was only slightly cool, and finally there was no need to worry about getting sunburned. Several girls wrapped themselves in cloaks and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the sea and sky on the deck, while smiling and talking about themselves.  if.

    Even the eldest princess, who had not been seen since boarding the ship, came out of the cabin and leaned lazily on the deck chair, sipping wine and watching the stars in the sky blink, just like Zhao Lang's big eyes.

    It¡¯s already the third day since we were separated, and I miss him.

    Zhao Hao is a smart man and knows that it is not a good idea to go to the girls or talk to his godmother at this time.

    He would rather ask Zheng Ruozeng for advice on how to use the star board.

    Zhang Xiaojing felt very itchy when she saw the two of them on the top deck, gesticulating with wooden boards.  But she had been pestering Zhao Hao in the afternoon, so why did she have the nerve to get in touch with him again?

    She had no choice but to retract her envious gaze and continue the girls' conversation.

    Xiao Zhuzi¡¯s eyes were caught by Ma Xianglan who was standing aside.  Secretary Ma secretly laughed in his heart. Just after leaving Jiangnan, Miss Zhang's thoughts came to life again.

    It¡¯s not in vain that Sister Ma has been cheering her on for a while, but Xiao Zhuzi didn¡¯t give up. She finally adjusted her strategy and ushered in a turning point.

    In the view of the wily Sister Ma, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms will naturally last longer than the conflict between Chu and Han.  If you go back and work harder to bring out the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, your life will not be too easy.

    "However, the young master's ability to bear it must also be considered.  It is better to reduce one by one and create the Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons.

    As for her, she will naturally never fight for hegemony and defend the country harmlessly to humans and animals.

    ??~~

    "A sneeze, a sneeze" On the top deck, Mr. Zhao sneezed several times, and Gao Wu quickly put a cloak on him.

    Zheng Yiluan also put a cloak on his old father.

    "It doesn't matter." Zheng Ruozeng waved his hand, signaling him not to interfere with him.  Then he continued to demonstrate to Zhao Hao how to use the 'Star Holding Board'.

    A set of star board consists of twelve square ebony boards, the largest one is about 24 centimeters on a side, which is called the "Twelve Fingers".  Each piece is reduced by two centimeters, and the smallest piece with a side length of two centimeters is called a 'one finger'.  A rope about 72 centimeters long is threaded through the center of the board, and it is very simple to make.  Zheng He relied on it to measure the heights of stars and measure their directions.

    Despite its humble appearance, only a few of them are used by the Ming Dynasty today.  Zhao Hao had asked Uncle Mi and Elder Niu Ma before, and all three of them knew about the existence of this thing.  But the star-pulling board alone is useless. It also needs to be used in conjunction with the star-pulling chart. None of them have seen the star-pulling chart, so naturally none of them know how to star-pulling.

    When Zheng Ruozeng was in the shogunate of Hu Zongxian, he used the excuse that naval warfare was needed to resist the Japanese, so he rummaged through a number of star maps from the cabinet library of the Southern Ministry of War, including the shipping routes for grain transportation in the Yuan Dynasty.

    It was by relying on these star-holding maps that he was able to sail across the seas of the Ming Dynasty and write the immortal thirteen volumes of "Cao Hai Tu Bian".

    ??~~

    "The star-pulling technique is actually very simple." Zheng Ruozeng said, while looking up at the starry sky in the north, he picked up the 'six-finger' board with his right hand and straightened his right arm.

    Then he picked up the string threaded through the center of the board with his left hand and placed it in front of his eyes.

    "Look at the lower edge of the board first, level the lower edge with the water, and then see if the upper edge of the board is even with Beichen." He shook his head slightly and said, "If it is wider, it will block Beichen. Change four fingers."

    Zheng Yiluan quickly changed the 'Four Finger' board. After repeating the above action, Zheng Ruozeng saw the North Star appear on the edge of the board and Fang said in a deep voice: "Beichen Four Finger."

    His second son quickly took note of the new boat lantern After being able to blow glass by himself, this kind of portable, weatherproof kerosene lamp would not be difficult to make, but it would still use lamp oil as fuel.  Especially in windy and rainy weather at sea, it is really a great lighting tool for the crew!

    Zheng Ruozeng used the same method to observe the positions of Vega and Northwest Busi.  He put on his reading glasses and looked up a booklet. This was the "Atlas of Beiyang Stars" that he copied from the Staff Department of the Ministry of War.

    Finally, he turned to the page he was looking for and read slowly: "The Black Water crosses the ocean. Look at the North Star with four fingers flat on the water, the Vega in the east with seven fingers flat on the water, and the northwest Star Busi with eleven and a half fingers. Master, we don't have it."  yaw."

    Everyone was relieved when they heard this. The sea is boundless and the journey is a long sea route.  Fifty boats are like a fleet of antsbsp;He is the number one supporter and advocate of Zhao Hao's maritime strategy. He believes that only by defeating the enemy at sea can the Ming Dynasty's maritime security be completely guaranteed.  Only by crossing the sea and giving Japan a lesson, knocking them down, and making them call Ming Dynasty daddy every day like North Korea, can the glory of the Celestial Kingdom be restored!

    And Tamluo is the advance base planned by Zheng Ruozeng for Zhao Hao.  No matter how you use this place as your business base, you can earn endless silver from the Japanese.  Or as a future military base, it would be great to raise troops and horses here, and to send troops to invade Japan.

    "When we return to the island, let's go to the island and take a look around, and then consider the long term." Mr. Zhao smiled and reassured Zheng Ruozeng. Time waits for no one but Zheng Ruozeng.

    "There's nothing to worry about, it's just horizontal! The more horizontal you are, the more comfortable they will be." Zheng Ruozeng stretched out his hand and clenched his fist, saying as if holding Tamluo in his hand: "How can such a good place be run like a fool?  Just leave it to us obediently!"

    ps. There is another update, but there are still more than a thousand words, please wait a moment.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
