Chapter 598: Surveying and Mapping


In the next two days, Du Yuhui conducted a comprehensive survey of the Ryukyu Island, and yes, he took the fleet around the Ryukyu Island."

Second Young Master, if you land, I think it's good here, there are no trees to block it, although they are all mountains and rocks, but it's better than going directly into the forest area and not seeing the light of day!"

Because there are various records, every time Junko sees a suitable place to land, Junko will say, "There are 4 places where you can land along the way, you have recorded them all!"

And the general graphics of this island are like this, if you come in the future, look for these places!

At the same time, according to the speed of our boat and the time, I also have an idea of the approximate size of this island, and when we come next time, I will plan carefully!

”Du Yuhui said: "Well, we have all recorded it, look at the place where the second young master has arrived at the place where we cut down the tree, hahaha!"

We're back!

”Kuroko looked at the mark he had made in the distance and shouted happily: "In this way, we will land at the closest place we just selected to here, and then rest for two days, and then we will return to the sea!"

”Du Yuhui said: "Second Young Master, this sea fish is really delicious, but we must eat it immediately when we catch it, and there is no way to store it!"

”Junzi said: "This matter will be said in the future, we have to come step by step, in addition, we are looking at the periphery of this island now, and we must not choose the inhabited place we see to land in the future, after all, we don't know whether the people on the island are aggressive, by the way, Uncle Zhang, do we have a deal with the people on the island?"

”Du Yuhui asked: "Yes, there are no good things on the island, and they can't afford the things we have here, so there is no large-scale transaction, most of them are mainly supplies when passing by." ”Zhang Tou said: "Brother Shunzi, let's go to everyone's place and land!"

Those few places where people live, let's not bother them for the time being, of course, we don't know the situation on the island, so after landing, we should prepare for defense, let's go back and we are ready to go ashore!

”Du Yuhui instructed: At this time, the Ryukyu Islands were a general term for Taiwan and other places, and the place where Du Yuhui is now surveying and mapping is the island of Taiwan in later generations, and it was called "Yizhou" during the Three Kingdoms; The Sui Dynasty changed its name to "Liuqiu"; In the Song Dynasty, it was called "Vishana", also known as "Vishya"; The Yuan Dynasty called it "Ryukyu", and the Yuan government set up the Penghu Inspection Department to govern Penghu and Ryukyu; At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it was called "Dongfan", and later it was called "Jijian Mountain", "Beigang", "Bengang", "Taiwowan", etc., and it was called "Taiwan" during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.The current Great Song Dynasty is called "Vishena", of course, the historical records recorded in 1171, this place was assigned to the jurisdiction of the Great Song Dynasty, in other words, now this is an ownerless barren land, from the appearance, here in addition to the forest area is a mountainous area, of course, there are a small number of people living on it, Du Yuhui does not bother them, so he chose a place that can land, but there is no human population, the main force landed, and a third of the children were left on the ship to guard!"

Second Young Master, this is a barren place, why are you here here?

I've always wanted to ask this question!

”Junzi asked: "You also said that this is a barren land, and our Great Song Dynasty does not have jurisdiction over this place, don't you say that this place is not good if we occupy it!"

I came out this time, the chart that my dad gave me, is to let me take a look at this "Vishena", if I can, this place will become Dujiazhuang, and at the same time, this island can be developed well, you can control the entire Song Dynasty's foreign maritime trade, Dad said that the geographical location here is very important!

”Du Yuhui said: "Ao, so that's the case!

But if you want to develop here, I am afraid it will not be possible without decades of hard work!

”Junko said, "It doesn't matter how long it takes!"

Anyway, you and I are young, even if we see it in our lifetime, it will not be in vain!

”Du Yuhui said: "Second Young Master, we found a large number of fanged things near a small river over there. ”A child came up and reported: "Let's go and see!"

”After Du Yuhui finished speaking, he took some people over!

As a result, when I arrived at the place, I saw that there were dozens of large crocodiles!"

This thing is called a crocodile, don't get close, this thing is extremely aggressive, if they don't go ashore, we won't go over, because this thing has a strong attack power in the water, if they go ashore, they will shoot it with a bow and arrow, and drag the crocodile over after they are killed, and the meat of this thing can also be eaten!"

Du Yuhui looked at the crocodiles in the river and said: Of course, the most critical point is that Du Yuhui did not let the children attack to kill the crocodiles, yes, when Du Yuhui saw these guys for the first time, he could feel that they were much bigger than the crocodiles in Africa seen on TV, and then Du Yuhui thought, this may be ancient times!

Because the damage to the link is not very large, and the climate change is very small, many animals in this era are much larger than later generations!

Judging from the size, a crocodile is twice the size of the later generations, so Du Yuhui doesn't dare to make a mistake, right!"

Hurry up and retreat, don't you see this thing that big!"

Junko shouted: After all, they haven't seen anything like this before!"

It is good for us to retreat a little farther, so that after we set up camp today, we must prepare a patrol and light some more bonfires at the same time, if this thing comes ashore, the attack power will be greatly reduced, but you must remember not to go near the river, you know no!"

Du Yuhui said: He knew that the children came to the river to fetch water and found crocodiles, and if it weren't for the fact that there were so many crocodiles visible to the naked eye in the entire river, it was estimated that the children who fetched water would suffer!"

There are fierce beasts in the rivers on the island, and there will be more fierce beasts in the forest area."

Kuroko reminded, "That's it!

We set off the day after a day of rest, this time our previous purpose has been achieved, as long as we can return normally, then it will be considered complete, in addition, Du pre, you see what we need to prepare if we come to this kind of place to survive, this time after you go back, you think about it, we will try to bring some next time. ”Du Yuhui asked: "En's main thing is still weapons, the master has marked the drawings of many weapons, I will study it when I go back, we will produce some weapons first, do a good job of defense first, and build our own homes is not in a hurry!"

”Du Yu said: "I also know this, but when I saw these crocodiles today, I thought of something, if the crossbow arrows we fired, if a long rope can be tied to the back, do you think it's okay?"

When we launch it, for example, the crossbow arrow penetrates the crocodile's body, and although we can't go into the river to get the crocodile back, we can drag the shot crocodile back with a rope, and let the children taste the crocodile when the time comes!

And if you encounter a pirate, if the pirate ship is small, we can use this method to repeatedly attack their small sails, I just put forward an idea, you study and study specifically, this is not in a hurry!

”Du Yuhui said: "I understand what you said is reasonable, Second Young Master!"

Even we can use it in the defense of Dujiazhuang, in that case, the arrow in front of the crossbow arrow that shoots out needs to be remade, so that it can't escape after it penetrates something, well, I want to think about it!

”Du Yu said: "By the way, every child on the boat, can they drive the boat by themselves?"

”Du Yuhui asked: "I don't know this yet, but there are Zhang Tou here, I don't think it's a big problem!"

”Junko said: "If we go back, let the people we hire watch from the sidelines, let the children control the boat themselves, and if there is anything wrong, let them help remind them, and this matter must be ordered immediately!"

”Du Yuhui said!

On the morning of June 4, after a day's rest, Du Yuhui and the children embarked on the way home, "Zhangtou, today we will go back in a circle, I want to take this route!"

”Du Yuhui gestured to Zhang Tou on the map and said: "If it is safe for adults, I think we should go back the same way!"

”Zhang Tou was still afraid that there would be a problem, so he said: "It's okay Uncle Zhang, there is no danger when we come, I estimate that there will be no big problem when I go back, and I want to train the children to drive their own boats in the deep sea, this time listen to me, and one more point, all the ships are lined up for me, and they move forward horizontally at the same time, and the interval between each ship is two nautical miles!"

During the night break, all the ships move closer to the flagship and drop anchor, and after dawn, they still move forward in this way, and each of your ships in the process of traveling, if you find any island, no matter the size, you must record it, it must be depicted, of course, if you find the island ship with fireworks signal, we will stop and wait for you, if the found island is big enough, we can go to the island to rest for a day, everyone understands!

If you understand, you will go" Du Yuhui finally ordered: Zhang Tou has no choice but to obey orders!

According to Du Yuhui's plan, the fleet began to sail to the real Ryukyu Islands in the future, Du Yuhui wanted to make nautical charts, there was no way he could only use this way, and according to the approximate time when he left "Vishana", and then calculate how long he walked, what kind of islands he encountered in what places, and the size of the islands, so that he could roughly calculate the direct distance of each island, which was a way to do it, after all, if you want to develop maritime power, this nautical chart is crucial, Now although the Great Song Dynasty also has so-called routes and waterways, those are still incomplete, and the most important thing, those uninhabited islands, will not be drawn, because they use trade routes, where there is trade, many old shipwrights will go, but these routes without trade, after all, who will go to those places to see the scenery!
