When the horizon appeared in the telescope, Yunhao felt a lot lighter all of a sudden. If you have never experienced a storm, you will never know how vast and terrifying the sea is. If the compass is correct, ahead is Lucheng Port, the home port of the Datang.
Lucheng was also called Yazhou. In later generations, it had an even more famous name, Sanya.
Sunlight! Beach! Bikini! Or have a love-at-first-sight, explosive encounter! All your imaginations don¡¯t exist now!
?This is not a tourist destination these days. On the contrary, only those who made big mistakes and were disliked by the emperor would live here. At this time, there were no high-rise buildings or high-end hotels in Yazhou. There are just vast forests and savage-like aboriginal people.
To be honest, the Hainan aborigines these days look very much like Africans. The skin is dark, still a kind of shiny black. Regardless of men or women, as long as they are over thirty, their faces are full of ravines. The skin on its body is extremely tough, comparable to tree bark. Generally, they are no more than 1.7 meters tall, and some are even less than 1.3 meters tall. Of course, we are all talking about adults here.
The hot weather keeps these people shirtless all year round, and even women can only wear thin shirts. It's so thin that the two protrusions on the chest are clearly printed on the shirt. I can't help it, the weather is just like this here. Most of the time, you don¡¯t need a blanket to sleep here at night. The sea breeze brought salty moisture, and the blanket became very heavy in just one night. The next day I had to take the damp blanket outside to dry!
But there is one thing that is a necessity in this place, and that is a mosquito net. Rich or poor people all try to get a mosquito net. People who really can't afford it can only smoke wormwood inside their houses. That smell Not only did mosquitoes dare not come in, but even people stayed away. There are many kinds of mosquitoes in Hainan. There is one kind of mosquito that is not big in size but is famous for its fierce bite. Just one bite and it's a bag as big as a fingernail. Even though the bag is not big, it is a terrible itch. Yunhao was bitten once, and the itching made him want to use a knife to peel off the skin.
There is another kind, which is about the size of the thumb cap. It makes a scary sound when flying, and it's even scarier when it bites on your body. Yunhao has never been bitten, but according to Gouzi. I got a bite on my arm and felt a pain in my bones.
It doesn¡¯t matter whether the mosquitoes are big or not, this place is also rich in rats. He didn¡¯t know how the rats in Yazhou grew so big, but Yunhao saw with his own eyes a rat the size of a cat. As long as this thing is formed into a group, even dogs dare to bite it. Cats definitely live in fear in this place.
Crocodiles often visit the beach, and the Tang Dynasty called them Jiao. Saltwater crocodiles are characterized by their huge size. It's so big that it can swallow a person alive without any effort. Children who go to the beach to play, as long as they are missing, then they are fucking missing. The chance of finding it again is almost zero. Perhaps the legend of dragons eating humans evolved from this thing.
"Jiaos are scary, but there are even scarier things offshore. The huge shark fin is exposed, like a sail. Such a big crocodile, as long as it is bitten by a shark, there will be a cloud of blood mist on the sea. According to folklore, many fishing boats were capsized by sharks, and then the people on board were eaten alive by the man-eating demons.
Since I can¡¯t go to the sea, I can just farm on the shore. It's a pity that it still didn't work!
I don¡¯t know where so many monkeys and wild boars came from. They appear in the fields in groups at night. Sometimes, I am not afraid of people even during the day. A large area of ??crops was ruined overnight.
In short, this is a place that is seriously unsuitable for human habitation.
Yunhao watched the seagulls flying in the sky and listened to the waves of the sea constantly beating against the hull of the ship. This is a place like this that he wants to go to, and now Yunhao feels that leaving his wife and children in Guangzhou is so damn right.
There are all kinds of bad things here, but one thing is very good. The water channel is wide and the wharf has a deep draft. And it¡¯s also fog-free all year round! This is rare. Everyone knows that heavy fog is a nightmare for sailors. I can't see anything clearly in front of me. God knows if I will hit a rock or something else. When the fog is heavy, it is possible to hit the coastal cliff.
Tons of silver were thrown down, and the port in Yazhou was so beautifully built. It can be seen that neither Feng Ang nor Cheng Chumo later let the money go to waste.
After walking along the rope bridge and getting off the boat, Yunhao still felt a little shaken. This is a sequelae of navigation, and it will definitely not take a day or two to recover from it. When he looked up, he saw an excited Cheng Chumo. After not seeing each other for several years, Cheng Chumo had a tanned head. If his hair were a little curler, Yunhao would think of him as an African brother.
¡°For your humble position, please see the Commander-in-Chief!¡± Cheng Chumo led a group of generals and officers to salute him, and he was now also the title of General Yunhui. There was an old man who was the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He wanted to be promoted, but he couldn¡¯t do it.After bowing and promising, Cheng Chumo immediately took Yunhao in front and started walking around the harbor.
Yunhao waved his hand, and Xiongkuohai stopped those who followed him. Cheng Chumo and Yunhao walked on the wide pier one behind the other, and everyone followed them dozens of steps away.
"Tell me! What happened to Zhang Zhongjian? We haven't seen him for several years. Could it be that he has become a spirit?" Yunhao turned around and looked at Cheng Chumo in confusion.
"Zhang Zhongjian has gunpowder!" Cheng Chumo said very solemnly.
"Black gunpowder, or new gunpowder?" The formula of gunpowder has been stolen by the Persians. In fact, this is also because the gunpowder formula is too simple. Nitro gunpowder is not that easy, it requires a certain knowledge of chemistry. Yunhao didn't think that anyone in this era would have such knowledge of chemistry.
"Black powder!" Cheng Chumo lowered his voice and said.
¡°Oh!¡± Yunhao nodded, but the black powder was fine. Black powder and nitro gunpowder were incomparable in terms of power. Yunhao was confident that he could blow Zhang Zhongjian into the sky in a naval battle.
"They still have kerosene!" Cheng Chumo saw that Yunhao was calm and hurriedly added more fuel!
"Kerosene?" Yunhao nodded, this was a bit troublesome. In naval battles, the release of kerosene is still very concerning. After all, ships in these days are all wooden ships, and with the magic weapon of kerosene, they will burn quickly. Especially if this thing sets the sail on fire, the warship will quickly lose power. Unexpectedly, Li Jing sold Datang to this extent.
There is no way to curse a dead person anymore, Yunhao can only be grateful. Ships like the Datang, Zhenhai and Dinghai have no sails. The speed is also much higher than that of sailboats of this era, so even if there is kerosene, it should not be a big problem.
"How strong is Zhang Zhongjian now?"
"After having gunpowder and kerosene, Zhang Zhongjian became very arrogant. We suffered some losses because the last general's ships were all sailboats. Compared with Zhang Zhongjian, we have no advantage."
"Avoid the edge! This is the right thing to do, don't fight with others!"
"Zhang Zhongjian has a Japanese deputy named Miyamoto Musashi. This man is a master of the war, and the pirates in the entire South China Sea are no match for him. In the past two months, Zhang Zhongjian's troops even attacked the coast of Qiongzhou. A small group of dozens of people The fishing village was completely slaughtered! It was already two days later when Mo Jiang led the people there. There were corpses everywhere! Those people were very poor and had nothing to rob."
"It is indeed very arrogant, and it has become so arrogant. If I don't come, these guys will probably invade the coast of Guangdong. The coastline of the Tang Dynasty is vast, and people like jackals must not be allowed to get in. The South China Sea is so big, we think It's very troublesome to fight them." Yunhao is not afraid of fighting, he is afraid that Zhang Zhongjian will play hide and seek with him in the vast South China Sea. How could he catch people in the huge South China Sea? If he wants to accurately locate the position, Yunhao must first tinker with satellites.
"This should not happen for the time being. A detailed report said that Zhang Zhongjian was too domineering in the South China Sea. It has caused dissatisfaction among other pirates. It is said that the pirates in the South China Sea have a tendency to unite and fight Zhang Zhongjian. And I heard that the pirates in Persia also have gunpowder And kerosene. And they seem to have a lot of kerosene! Not long ago, General Mo led people to destroy a water village in Jiaozhi, and found more than a dozen ships of kerosene in it. The quality of kerosene is even better than what we use. good."
Yunhao rubbed his forehead, there was nothing he could do about this kind of thing. Who would let someone produce this thing at home?
"And! The fisherman is here!"
"Yu Lao? Why are you here?" (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
