Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

About six or seven miles away from the coast, there is a small village. This village maintains the original posture of the tribe, which can be said to be very backward.

There is only such a small village within a radius of dozens of miles. The main reason is that the living environment in this place is too harsh, so most of the tribes that can survive better have moved to the west. I don't want to live in the reefs and mountains in the southeast.

On this morning, when the men of these tribes were about to leave home to go fishing in the sea, they were suddenly shocked by the scene in front of them.

Countless densely packed ships suddenly appeared on the vast and boundless ocean. These ships were large and small, and the largest of them was a bit bigger than the biggest whale these fishermen had ever seen in their life. The red flag on it was also It looks extraordinarily dazzling.

For the men of these tribes, they obviously couldn't understand what they found in front of them at all, so they ran back home in a panic the next moment, and began to take their families and children to hide in the distant mountains. It is also a common method they use when they encounter powerful enemies.

Zhao Qian, the crown prince of the Great Han Kingdom, was standing on the deck of the leading Yuhuang warship, and couldn't help laughing after watching this scene.

Frankly speaking, this is actually not the first panicked tribe that Zhao Qian saw in the process of going south to conquer various tribes on the Korean Peninsula, but whenever he saw this scene, Zhao Qian couldn't help but feel his heart tremble. A sense of contentment and pride emerges.

There is no way, who made the Great Han Kingdom so powerful? Looking at the tribal villages in front of us like savages, you can know how valuable the Great Han Kingdom is today.

Zhao Qing took a deep breath, glanced at the fleet commander who was already eager to try, and said with a smile: "Commander Li, you can give orders now." ;

So after a quarter of an hour, when a large number of Han Kingdom naval fleets began to dock one after another, the soldiers of the naval fleet jumped down along the shore and marched towards the village not far away.

Half an hour later, the hundreds of tribal people in the village who had not had time to leave were all gathered together. They watched in fear and anxiety at the heavily armed Han Navy soldiers around them, not knowing that they were about to face What kind of fate is right.

Zhao Qian has long been used to this kind of situation, he coughed, and said lightly: "What about the translation, don't give it to me, come here quickly." ;

Soon one, who seemed to be a native of the Korean peninsula, ran over wearing the armor of a Han soldier, nodding and bowing.

This is also impossible. If you want to communicate with these local aborigines, of course you still need some translators. After all, these aborigines are similar to the savages in their own languages. They are not from the Shang Dynasty like North Korea. Able to communicate with Zhao Qian in elegant words.

Zhao Qian opened his mouth to the local natives of the Korean Peninsula in front of him: "From today onwards, you are the people under the rule of our Great Han Kingdom. Next, officials will come to rule and educate you. You must do your best to follow his orders." Words, otherwise you will have a very miserable end. ;

After waiting for the translator to translate these words to these natives, Zhao Qian reached out and pointed to a sheep not far away.

Several Musketeers of the Han Dynasty who had already prepared for a long time raised their muzzles at the same time, and fired several shots at the same time, smashing the sheep into a sieve in an instant.

After seeing this scene, the natives in the village screamed in unison, and some even knelt down towards the musketeers with a look of panic, kowtowed, and said something in their mouths?

Zhao Qian glanced at the translator, the translator understood, and immediately said: "Your Highness the Cavalry Prince, these savages don't understand, because they think these Musketeers are envoys sent by the gods, so they are expressing their awe to these envoys." heart of. ;

Zhao Qian couldn't laugh or cry after listening to what the interpreter said, thinking that this lack of culture is really terrible, even musketeers can be regarded as messengers of gods.

But that's fine, in the next contact process between Zhao Qian and the natives, these natives may have been really frightened by the musketeers, and they knew everything about Zhao Qian's inquiries, and they had nothing to say.

So, in the ordinary inquiry this time, Zhao Qian actually had an unexpected harvest.

It turns out that the villages of this tribe, they don’t mean that they live here all the time every year. For a few months every year, they often choose to retreat into the mountains and forests in the north, the purpose is to escape, and they come from the southeast. Harassment by some sea bandits.

As soon as Zhao Qian heard the news, he immediately became interested, and immediately asked: "What kind of sea bandits?"Can you describe it to me in detail? ;

Then the natives of these tribes spoke out in detail. They didn't know exactly where the bandits at sea came from, but they knew that the bandits at sea came from far, far away islands. , every year in a canoe or a very simple sailboat.

Sometimes they come to trade with the local aborigines in exchange for goods, but in recent years, I don't know why they are more willing to choose to rob and kill.

It is precisely because of this that there were actually several villages in this area, but later these villages were all moved away one after another in order to avoid bandits. Only this village is relatively strong because of their force, so it is said that Adventure stay here.

After all, after the other villages move away, there will actually be more prey in these places, and more fish can be caught when going out to sea. This is also a very important reason why this village stays here.

After Zhao Qian listened to the words of the natives in these villages, he actually had some calculations in his mind.

That night, Zhao Qian unfolded a world map in his room on the ship, and looked at it for a long time.

There was a knock on the door, and Zhao Qianxin responded, and then Zhao Zheng walked in, and said to Zhao Qian: "Why doesn't His Royal Highness take a rest?"It is very late. ;

After so many days of tempering, Zhao Zheng's seasickness has finally improved a lot, so he can move relatively freely now.

Zhao Qian smiled and told Zhao Zheng the news he heard during the day, and then said to Zhao Zheng: "If I guessed correctly, the so-called sea bandits should actually come from the four islands of Fusang." ;

After Zhao Zheng listened to Zhao Qian's words, he thought for a while, nodded and said: "That's true. According to what His Majesty told us before, these bandits on the sea should take advantage of the annual monsoon and ocean currents, and then take advantage of them." The canoes drifted directly over. ;

Zhao Qian said with a smile: "I also heard from my father before that those distant western Vikings could use a small boat to cross a very vast and vast ocean. At that time, I still felt that this The matter is simply a myth, but I didn't expect to hear it with my own ears at this time. ;

Zhao Zheng smiled, then looked at Zhao Qian and said: "If His Royal Highness is willing, we can actually assemble a small army here, and when those sea bandits arrive, we can directly catch them." , if we ask them to guide us at that time, we must be able to cross this ocean and reach the four islands of Fusang safely. ;

Zhao Zheng was actually quite happy when he was talking, because this time Zhao Qian still has a task, which is to create as many conditions as possible for the future attack on the four islands of Fusang as a supervisor. A group of aborigines who were originally from the four islands of Fusang were caught.

After Zhao Qian heard Zhao Zheng's words, he smiled and didn't speak, but His Royal Highness's eyes shone with a light that had never appeared before.

After a while, Zhao Qian made up his mind and said to Zhao Zheng: "Actually, I don't think we need to wait for some sea bandits here. After all, we don't know what time of year these so-called sea bandits are." Come on, I don't know if they made it up or not. ;

After Zhao Zheng heard Zhao Qian's words, he was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly seemed to understand something, and looked at Zhao Qian in surprise: "Prince, do you mean;

Zhao Qian smiled, and said to Zhao Zheng with certainty: "It seems that you already understand what I mean, that's right, I just want to go directly from here to the four islands of Fusang." ;

After Zhao Zheng heard Zhao Qian's words, even though he had already been mentally prepared, he couldn't help but turn pale with shock at this moment, and subconsciously said to Zhao Qian: "Your Highness the Crown Prince must not do it this time." ;

You must know that before this, the ships of these fleets have always been operating along the coastline, so basically there is no experience of leaving the coastline and directly entering the depths of the ocean.

Now Zhao Qian actually wants to go directly across the Korean Strait on the map to the four islands of Fusang. This is undoubtedly a very risky move, and it is difficult for Zhao Zheng to agree.

But Zhao Zheng's objection did not shake any of Zhao Qian's confidence. He said with great certainty: "I have made up my mind. This time, I must let the whole world and my father know that I, Zhao Qian, am not a flower in a greenhouse." , I can also make a career. ;

Chapter 1182 Zhao Qian Crossing the Sea (No.14)

Although Zhao Zheng tried his best to persuade Zhao Qian, there is a very important fact that Zhao Qian is the real prince of the Han Dynasty, so unless Zhao Kuo himself is present, other people's opinions are actually insufficient To persuade Zhao Qian who has made up his mind.

On the second day, Zhao Qian came to look for him, the commander of the navy.

After hearing Zhao Qian's words just now, the naval commander was also taken aback, and tried his best to oppose this matter, but Zhao Qian was the same as when he dealt with Zhao Zheng, without any wavering at all, and even took out the prisoner at the end. The position of the army directly forcibly suppressed the opinion of the naval commander.

The position of Supervising Army can be dismissed directly at certain critical moments, and the master will take over the command in the future. In other words, if the naval commander is unwilling to agree with Zhao Qian's opinion, then Zhao Qian can dismiss him on the spot. To serve as the new naval commander himself.

It was also for this reason that when Zhao Qian raised this point, the naval commander had no choice but to submit.

After all, if the commander of the navy is present, the situation can be controlled. If Zhao Qian is the commander, then he really does not know how things will develop next.

Of course, the naval commander didn't mean to agree with Zhao Qian's opinion unconditionally, but he also put forward his own ideas.That is, a part of the ships must be left to build a city here, so that it can be used to support Zhao Qian's return at that time.

For the request of the navy commander, Zhao Qian readily agreed to him, and even took the initiative to give this unbuilt city a new name.

;There are two mountains in this place, which look like a kettle, so this city is called Busan. ;

One is Busan City, a new city in the south of the Korean peninsula of the Han Dynasty, which was named after that.

And the young and middle-aged labor force in that tribe became the first batch of workers to build Busan. Of course, since they are now classified as the people of the Han Kingdom, they don't need to get that kind of slaves inhuman treatment.

After a while, the Han army led by Xiang Yan and Wang Jian will also arrive here. At that time, the large number of captives brought by the army will be the best targets for the real construction of this city.

In fact, the main force of Xiang Yan's army is not far from Busan City, only about five or six days away.

Of course, Zhao Qian was well aware of this situation, so he didn't wait until Xiang Yan arrived, but directly set off with 15 ships of all sizes after making some preparations.

On this day, Zhao Qian looked at the bright sun shining brightly in the east, with a smile on his face.

Zhao Qian has always been a very well-behaved child, but in fact, he also has a kind of youthful activity and ambition in his heart.

He also wanted to give it a try, to do some very challenging things, to prove to the world, especially his father, that he had grown up and was able to return to the Han Kingdom to make some contributions.

Now this time going to sea is undoubtedly a very good opportunity.

And in Zhaoqing's view, the risk of going to sea this time can be completely controlled, because the Korean Strait is actually not too far away from the map, and only a few days should be enough to reach the four islands of Fusang on the other side.

So after thinking of this, Zhao Qian also smiled and said to the naval commander beside him: "Commander Li, you don't need to be so discouraged. You must know that if we really discovered the four islands of Fusang, we will definitely have a great contribution this time." . ;

The Admiral of the Navy looked at Zhao Qian with a sad face. In fact, the Admiral of the Admiralty was quite broken at the moment, because he didn't know what it was like to go to sea this time. If something really happened to Zhao Qian, then the Admiral of the Admiralty could It is said that the lives of the whole family have to be paid.

But there is no way, who let Zhao Qian, the prince, be suppressed here.

Under the sunshine of this early morning, Zhao Qian led 15 large and small ships to set off towards the east, and sailed all the way into the vast ocean, disappearing from everyone's sight.

It was not until three days later that Xiang Yan and Wang Jian finally led the main force of the Route Army to Busan City.

This speed is actually very fast. After all, it is not convenient for the army to move all the way, and it is necessary to clean up all kinds of disobedient barbarian tribes along the way.

But even so, Xiang Yan and Wang Jian were dumbfounded at the same time after learning that Zhao Qian had actually taken a boat to the east.

After half a minute, Xiang Yan said: Does our prince really know what he is doing? ;

Wang Jian sighed and said: "Even the commander of the navy was taken away, and all the small boats that were not suitable for going to sea were left behind. Do you think he doesn't know what he is doing?" ;

Xiang Yan patted the table annoyed, and said: "He's just an underage child, why is he so bold?" ;

Wang Jian touched his nose and said after a long time: "Perhaps, this is His Majesty's blood." ;

No matter how anxious and speechless Xiang Yan and Wang Jian were, they couldn't do anything at this time, they could only leave an army at Busan City, waiting for Zhao Qian's return.

Zhao Qian ran into trouble.

Thanks to the help of the compass, Zhao Qian went out to sea this time relatively smoothly.

But on the second day, the situation changed a little bit.

Zhao Zheng, who rarely came to the deck, said to Zhao Qian: "The sky is cloudy, it looks like it's going to rain." ;

Rain is definitely not a good thing for any boater who lives at sea.

Zhao Qian's face changed slightly, and after a while he said: "I hope the rain won't bring too much wind." ;

However, at noon the next day, Zhao Qian suddenly realized that he might be wrong.

Although it was noon, the extremely thick dark clouds had already reached the top of the fleet, and there was no light at all.

This situation undoubtedly brought strong psychological pressure to everyone.

At this time, Commander Li of the Navy also hurried over.

;Your Highness, this may be a gale! ;

; windy? ;

;Yes, this is a saying of our people on the beach. Every time this kind of strong wind comes, it is like this. All fishermen must return to the shore after seeing this strong wind. If they continue to stay At sea, that's basically death without life! ;

After listening to Commander Li's description, Zhao Qian and Zhao Zheng looked at each other in blank dismay.

Because they have already thought that in the geography class, Zhao Kuo once taught them a typhoon, an ocean phenomenon!

According to Zhao Kuo, there are many levels of typhoons. Typhoons above level [-] can often destroy many buildings by the sea and cause casualties, and typhoons of higher levels are more destructive.

And if the fleet encounters a typhoon, it will be a devastating disaster!

It is no exaggeration to say that this may wipe out the entire fleet this time!

Zhao Qian's Adam's apple rolled, and he said, "Commander Li, if we return now, is there still time?" ;

Zhao Qian is not stupid, he really hopes to reach the four islands of Fusang, but he is not tired of work.

Commander Li shook his head helplessly, and said: "It's too late for us to find out. It's absolutely too late for the return journey now. I'm afraid we can only continue to fight eastward." ;

While speaking, the tick-tock rain had already started to fall, falling on the sea and among the boats.

The rain soon became heavier.

That night, the pouring rain covered the sea area where Zhao Qian was located, and the thunderous sound of raindrops struck Zhao Qian's heart, making him feel very irritable.

But this is not the end, amidst the heavy rain, the strong wind has also arrived.

Heavy rain is actually not the biggest threat to the fleet, but the threat of strong winds is absolutely fatal to the fleet struggling to advance on the sea.

When the strong wind blows, even if it is a big ship like the Yuhuang battleship, the whole ship is still flying up and down on the sea surface, swinging from side to side, which is very dangerous.

This time, Zhao Zheng, who ran over to stay in the same room with Zhao Qian, was in trouble. He was already seasick, but now he vomited and diarrhea, almost vomiting his intestines out.

Zhao Qian was also very uncomfortable, but he still tried his best to control himself, trying to maintain his balance in this back and forth shaking.

At this moment, Zhao Qian felt somewhat regretful. Maybe he shouldn't have gone to sea so recklessly in the first place, and he should have collected more information before making a decision.

But in any case, there is no regret medicine in this world, so Zhao Qian can only resign himself to fate at this moment.

An extremely bumpy night just passed away.I don't know when, the boat slowly became stable, and the wind and rain gradually became smaller.

There was also a knock on Zhao Qian's door at this time. Zhao Qian opened the door and found that Commander Li was standing outside covered in water.

"Commander Li, how is our situation now?" ; Zhao Qian sent out almost immediately, asking.

Commander Li showed an ugly smile, and said to Zhao Qian: "Three ships lost track in the wind and rain, and the other ships were damaged to varying degrees, but they were all still able to go." ;

;3 ships? ;After hearing the news, Zhao Qian's body trembled visibly.

Commander Li left after seeing that Zhao Qian and Zhao Zheng had no major problems. He was still in a hurry to clean up the mess.

Although Commander Li left, Zhao Qian stood there quietly without speaking for a long time.

Zhao Zheng seemed to understand Zhao Qian's thoughts, he stood up with some difficulty, and said to Zhao Qian: "Your Highness, don't blame yourself too much.None of us knew that this typhoon would suddenly appear this time, and this is not your responsibility, His Royal Highness. ;

Zhao Qian nodded, and said with a long sigh: "It's true that no one knew about the typhoon's appearance this time."But this also taught me a lesson, that is, when I do something in the future, I must take all possible unexpected factors into account, otherwise, if I encounter other similar things in the future, I will still do it. It's a big loss. ;

Zhao Zheng nodded, then closed his eyes.Drowsily fell asleep.

For Zhao Zheng.In the night that just passed, he vomited and passed out for a whole night, and now is a rare time to rest.
