What's more, apart from being able to identify the direction by relying on the sun, the whole sea looks the same on all sides, which side is north?Where is South again?
Zheng Zhilong even wondered if the people like himself had been sailing in the direction of the sun, and whether they would go to Zizhu Island where Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva lived in the South China Sea.
While salvaging the stern ship that was overturned by the dragon sucking water, Zheng Zhihu also came to Zheng Zhilong's flagship from the second blessing boat.
The first sentence Zheng Zhihu asked made Zheng Zhilong angry: "Brother, where are we now?"
Squinting at Zheng Zhihu, Zheng Zhilong said angrily: "Ask me, who am I going to ask? You have to ask the dragon sucking water just now, and ask him where he got us!"
Although Zheng Zhihu was simple-minded, he wasn't too stupid, so he immediately smiled coyly and replied, "Don't be upset, brother, isn't this just because I'm in a hurry."
Seeing Zheng Zhilong's complexion improved, Zheng Zhihu asked again: "Brother, where are we going next?"
Zheng Zhilong snorted angrily and said, "I don't know! Now I don't even know where I am, how do I go? Anyway, we just ran all the way south, and then turned around and headed northwest."
Zheng Zhihu asked curiously, "Shouldn't we go straight north and find supplies?"
Zheng Zhifeng, who also came from another ship, said with a smile: "We are going to India. If we go north, we will go to Nanyang Zhufan? What's the use of that? As for supplies, there are only ships on the sea?"
Hearing what Zheng Zhifeng said, Zheng Zhihu knew what this guy wanted to do.
Now my brothers are members of the Ming Navy, but they were serious pirates before, so they can be called pirates if they don't rob at sea?
The Western barbarians have so many ships going to Daming, they just plunder a few ships and destroy the corpses, who knows that their brothers did it?
The vast sea can cover up all the evils that should not appear in the world.
Zheng Zhihu, who felt that this matter was reliable, responded simply: "Okay, I will handle this matter."
Zheng Zhilong snorted and said: "Fuck you, now first scoop up the brothers on the tail ship, and then talk about how much you can save."
That's what he said, but even Zheng Zhilong himself didn't have much hope—this time the dragon sucked water so damn cruelly, and now he doesn't even know where the tail ship is, and can only rely on the floating objects floating on the sea There are also dead bodies to confirm the approximate location.
The final result was actually similar to Zheng Zhilong's expectation. The entire ship was photographed in the sea, and none of the stern ships survived.
Of the 120 soldiers and [-] sailors, none survived.
Only a few hundred corpses were salvaged, and there was not even a shadow of the rest.
In fact, it doesn't make much sense to salvage or not.The sea is different from the land. If the body is found on the land, the ashes can be cremated and brought back.
But what about at sea?
If it is necessary to take them back for burial, they are basically rotten and smelly, which is more likely to breed plague.
Therefore, no matter what the reason is, these corpses must be buried in the sea again.
Unless there is land not far away, it can be cremated in time.
Zheng Zhilong thought for a while, but it's better, even if he sailed northward, it would take four or five days before he could see the land.
And the weather at this time is as hot as a dead dog, will there be one of these brothers' corpses to see?
When the sun went west and was about to sink into the sea level, the entire sea surface was dyed golden, which looked incomparably magnificent.
Who would have thought that a few hours ago, a large ship with more than a thousand people sank on this sea, and no one survived?
The majesty of heaven and earth, even here, is unspeakable, unfathomable, one thought lives, one thought dies.
The men who searched for the stern ship also returned to report to Zheng Zhilong. Except for the salvage of 760 nine corpses, they found nothing.
Or there were still some planks of the ship, and there was nothing left.
Taking off the helmet on his head, Zheng Zhilong sighed deeply and ordered: "Prepare the white silk and wrap the corpses of the brothers. The governor will come as soon as he goes."
These brothers are all going to be buried at sea, and now they are salvaged, but they will eventually sink into the sea.
It's just that there are three vassal kings on board, so for the funeral, it is necessary to ask the three vassal kings for instructions.
After all, these brothers died for these three princes.
After arriving at Zhu Yujian's cabin, Zheng Zhilong briefly explained the matter to Zhu Yujian and the other three, and then asked for instructions: "Now that the bodies of these brothers have been salvaged, I need to ask the three princes to show me how to deal with them. "
In terms of titles, Tang Wang Zhu Yujian and Qin Wang Zhu Cunji are undoubtedly the two highest. As for Qing Wang Zhu Zhuohong, although he is also a one-word king, he cannot compare with Tang Wang and Qing Wang.
But Tang Wang Zhu Yujian has a high title, and his seniority is the uncle of Qin Wang and Qing Wang, so among the three, Tang Wang Zhu Yujian is the head.
After listening to what Zheng Zhilong said, Zhu Yujian said: "These soldiers are for state affairs after all. I wonder if they can all be salvaged and brought back for burial?"
Zheng Zhilong clasped his hands and said: "Reporting to the lord, the weather is hot now, and it will take four or five days to land at the fastest, so there is really no way to take them back for burial. In addition, those brothers who can't be found can't be found. "
Zhu Yujian hummed and said: "In this case, then follow General Zheng's wishes, and this king will also send off the soldiers."
Zhu Yujian didn't go directly to the deck. Instead, he ordered the eunuchs to prepare pens and ink, and after writing a sacrificial oration, he brought Zhu Cunji and Zhu Zhuohong to the deck.
At this time, the soldiers on the flagship deck were busy taking off the identity cards on the hundreds of corpses, and at the same time wrapped the corpses in white cloth.
Funerals are simple.
There is no sacrifice of three animals, only a salute to see off.The string windows of the nine blessing ships were opened, and more than two hundred cannons were fired one after another.
Seeing off the heroic spirit.
Then, after the simple but solemn etiquette, the 760 nine corpses were sunk into the sea.
Zhu Yujian opened the sacrificial text, and even the little eunuch was useless, so he read it directly: "On July 400th, the second year of Wei Daming's Chongzhen reign, a ship capsized when the Ming Dynasty's overseas advance army encountered a dragon absorbing water, and [-] soldiers were killed. Zhu Yujian, King of Tang Dynasty of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Cunji, King of Qin Dynasty, Zhu Zhuohong, King of Qing Dynasty, and all the officers and men of the navy made sacrifices together at sea, saying:
Alas!
Expedition overseas, expand my territory.The road is ragged, to open the sea.
The business of founding a country is very difficult.If you encounter the strong wind first, you will suffer the national calamity.
The wind is strong and the tide is torrential.Green blood for thousands of years, Yi Fan Weiyang.
Ossification into iron, monuments into tombs.Encourage Houkun to expand the territory.
The wind and cloud in the South China Sea, the rain and thunder, the heroic soul of the Ming Dynasty, and the eternal town of all nations.
Those who are pregnant come and return, the green hills are luxuriant, mourning my heroic spirit, and mourning the frost.
In the sky is dry, in the earth is kun, never forgetting, national Kunlun.
The sky is gloomy and weeping, and the four seas look around and are plain.
Tell the heroic spirit today, will Hu come back?
This heart is not obliterated, offering wine and wine is a ritual, God knows it, and learns the fragrance of my heart.
