Because of this magical chart, everyone worshiped His Majesty the Emperor.Well, in fact, they don't know yet, they have been killed by His Majesty the Emperor.Where can Chongzhen draw any nautical charts, this nautical chart is nothing more than what he forcibly pieced together with his shallow geographical knowledge.Originally, Chongzhen wanted the Ming fleet to follow the coastline, from Manila to Malacca, then from Sri Lanka to Cape Town, Recife, and finally to Port Cadiz.The route was extremely safe, and it was easy to get supplies along the way, uh, it was fine to walk in front, but it went off track and went deep into the ocean.If you are an experienced navigator, you will be able to spot the problem when there are fewer fish and seabirds.It's a pity that even Zheng Zhilong hasn't walked across the ocean, how can he find out that he has gone astray?
The dolphin knows, but people are beasts and can't speak.This hurts, although the Ming fleet has enough supplies, but no matter how many supplies there are, there will be times when they run out of food, if there are no supplies, they will really starve to death.Fortunately, the madmen of the Academy of Sciences developed the steam engine and built an iron-hulled ship, which was heavy enough, the draft was deep enough, and they did not encounter typhoons, so they sailed on the ocean safely for the time being.The vassal kings have sailed these days, and they can be regarded as having seen the world, and they have long known that the huge octopus that Zheng Zhilong had been talking to them about before did not exist at all.And the octopus is quite delicious, chop off its octopus and grill it over a charcoal fire is delicious, and it can be eaten raw!
The ocean can really broaden people's eyes, everyone imagines Africa, Europe, and America on the other side of the ocean, believing in this endless resources and gold and silver, and their mouths are about to smile.To be able to build a country overseas and achieve a hegemony is better than being in the palace of the old and dead, right?
It is?
The fleet is sailing, the course is on, why is something wrong?
Why is it always sea water and there is no place to resupply?
The food on board was also running out.The coal has also been burned, and the last resort is to rely entirely on the wind, but the ocean is boundless, and the water and the sky meet, as if it is about to reach the end of the world?"
Dog Emperor!"
Even Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, who had always been good-tempered, was furious and scolded, "This king knows that the dog emperor is the best at tricking people, and sure enough, he has cheated this king again."
This sea is boundless, when is it a head, this king doesn't want to die on the sea, don't say that he died on the sea, look at this hot sun, I'm afraid that this king will have to become a human sooner or later!
”Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, wants to cry without tears, anyway, now that he is at sea, this king scolds you to death A dog emperor, what can you do to me?
Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, was enjoying the refreshing feeling of scolding the emperor, but at the same time he was deeply worried about his future, and his hair was gray."
Hehe, Lao Tzu also thinks that this dog emperor is unreliable, what kind of chart?
actually refers to Lao Tzu lost. ”Zheng Zhibao was originally suspicious of Chongzhen, and before the Dog Emperor left, he did not forget to send someone to bring his sons to the capital, which was called protection.In fact, it is a hostage!
Zheng Zhibao and Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, found a common language because they scolded Chongzhen, and the two actually became confidants, drinking on the boat and spraying the emperor.Although the language they scolded was extremely unpleasant, it brought a touch of anger to the monotonous voyage, and everyone didn't bother to pay attention to them.But as Chongzhen's die-hard fan brother Zheng Zhilong, he still has great trust in His Majesty the Emperor, and he feels that His Majesty the Emperor's charts will not go wrong.Even if they make a mistake, it is just to test them, Your Majesty is afraid that they will succeed too easily and will be proud in the future, so he deliberately set up some obstacles for them to break through.If they break through, they will be able to live up to His Majesty's trust, and if they can't, it must be that their ability is too poor.I have to say that Zheng Zhilong's mentality is exactly the same as that of some celebrities in modern society!
In the eyes of brainless fans, idols can't be wrong, if idols are wrong, then the world must be wrong.But Zheng Zhilong is a bit more brain-dead than a celebrity, at least Zheng Zhilong won't think that His Majesty's nautical chart is not wrong, what is wrong is this sea area!
Although Zheng Zhilong was very panicked, he was not afraid at all, he really regarded this catastrophe as a test, and seriously studied the chart and checked Sinan.At this time, Zhu Huakui and Zheng Zhibao, the kings of Chu, were still scolding, thinking that although the king of Chu was a little timid, he was still quite elegant.On weekdays, this guy is an elegant prince, and he is quite admired by some women.Didn't expect that?
This will really be like a shrew scolding the street, saliva foaming straight out, if it is really a person, people can't look good, everyone lives with the devil in their hearts, just see if the devil can't wake up.It's so boring!
Zheng Zhilong felt tightness in his chest, as if he couldn't spit out a breath, he stopped checking the charts and raised his head to look at the sky.The sky was cloudy, and the pressure was getting lower and lower, and suddenly, the wind rose very strongly, and his clothes blew.This is a sign of an impending storm, and anyone who begs for a living at sea knows that it is quite dangerous for a ship to encounter a storm, and there is a high risk that the ship will capsize.All seafaring ships add weight to their ships so that they don't overturn in the event of a storm.This fleet of the Ming Dynasty does not have this problem, because the Ming fleet is an iron-hulled ship, and there is a lot of cargo on board, so the weight is enough.This kind of weight is extremely heavy, enough for the ship to be as stable as a dog at sea, but Zheng Zhilong found that something was wrong with this storm, it was bigger than any storm he had seen before, even if the Ming fleet was as stable as a dog, I was afraid that it would be unstable.The wind and waves were higher and higher, as if they were going to sweep everyone away, and just now the wind and waves were calm, and the waves suddenly rose.Zheng Zhilong pulled a thick rope and tied himself to death, and then shouted, "If you can hide, hide quickly, and if you can't hide, tie yourself to death, lower the sail, turn on the steam engine, and rush over." ”Fortunately, Zheng Zhilong still has some coking coal left, otherwise this time it would be really over.Zheng Zhilong was directing the sailors to escape the storm, and Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, who was still furious just now, suddenly regained his timid personality.He crawled and was about to hide in the cabin, but found that the doors and windows had long been closed, and no matter how he knocked on the door, people would not open it.The damned Chu King Zhu Huakui had to pull the rope as well, tie himself firmly, and then shrink into a ball to fight against the impending storm.This is the first time Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, has seen this kind of wind, it is extremely violent, setting off stormy waves, and the huge fleet is like a boat in front of the storm, precarious!
