Chapter 1090 The Expedition Team Gathers

When more than a dozen colleges started school, a group of people rushed from the capital to Tianjinwei by train.Among them are senior students of the university, artisans, farmers, herdsmen, teachers, and even farmers' children.This group of them will leave the mainland, arrive at Edo Castle from Tianjinwei, and then follow the North Pacific warm current to the west coast of North America, aiming at the San Francisco area on the west coast of North America.

"Is everyone ready? It will take at least three years for us to leave our homeland this time. It is best not to make any mistakes before we set off." The captain of the North American expedition held a roster and was counting the people who were going to establish the San Francisco colony. player.

Due to the maritime mortality of the age of sail and the difficulty of establishing colonies, expedition members were prepared to sacrifice.If it weren't for the massive subsidies provided by the government, the artisans, farmers, and herdsmen who relocated would not be willing to leave their homeland and travel across the ocean to explore the unknown and wild primitive continent on the west coast of North America.

"Spring and summer are the best times to start. If you arrive in the New World in winter, you will encounter cold and famine. The temperature at our destination Jinshan is still very suitable for human beings. If we continue to advance along Jinshan to the north, the mainland there will be as cold as winter." It’s as cold as Siberia.” The captain said to himself a little while counting the players.

"Why did we change to a new captain? The captain is really nagging. I think he will be annoyed to death when we arrive at Jinshan."

"I heard that when the captain who went to Ryukyu with us for field training returned to his hometown, a plague broke out in his village. I was infected with the plague. Although I survived, I was blind in both eyes."

"It's really embarrassing that such a thing happened. It happened before we set off."

"I don't know if the new captain is reliable. Does he look too young, not yet 30?"

"Don't you know who this new captain is? He used to be one of the generals who pacified Nanyang, Cao Bianjiao! He served for the imperial court when he was more than ten years old. His uncle is still a member of more than a dozen regiments of the Kyushu Army. The head of the corps, he himself has served as the temporary head of the corps, and he has a high position."

"No way? An important figure in the military actually wants to serve as the captain of our North American expedition. Wouldn't he be able to live a comfortable life by staying in the mainland? He might even be able to become a general after a few years."

The team members privately discussed Cao Bianjiao as the new captain. Many people couldn't figure out that a candidate for a general with illustrious military exploits and a promising future would spend three years as the captain of the North American expedition.

"I know a student in the Army Lecture Hall. It is said that our new captain is frustrated in love and the woman he wants to pursue is about to get married, so he wants to leave the capital when that woman gets married, so he offered to serve as our North American expedition team captain."

"Even if you want to escape, you don't need to escape to an unknown new continent, right?"

"Ask what love is, and teach life and death. Maybe our new captain is an extremely emotional person. Want to find a place as far away as possible to relieve the pain caused by emotions?"

"It's hard to imagine who the woman the new captain is pursuing is that she would reject a future general. If she agrees, won't she be the general's wife?"

"The dragon is hidden in the capital and the tiger is crouching. Who knows if there is another important person who also falls in love with this woman?"

Before leaving Tianjin Wei to go to the unknown new continent, the idle people talked about gossip about Cao Bianjiao.

"Hey, what are you guys talking about? Run around the pier three times!" Cao Bianjiao, who was counting the team members, came over with a straight face and gave them orders, as if he was in a military academy.

After several members of the expedition knew that Cao Bianjiao was an officer, they were full of awe of Cao Bianjiao, and dared not disobey his orders, so they had to run around the pier of Tianjin Wei.

The merchants, porters, and passers-by at Tianjinwei Wharf all looked at the group of people gathered at the wharf curiously, not knowing their identities and purpose.

Cao Bianjiao continued to count the expedition team members.As these gossip said, Cao Bianjiao was studying in the Army Lecture Hall, and he was pursuing Goya, who was also in the Army Lecture Hall, but not only was Goya rejected, but Goya was also planning to marry Yu Cheng.Cao Bianjiao was more or less hit.

Of course, Cao Bianjiao, who charged into the battle as a soldier, did not want to escape to the unknown new continent just because of such a blow, but because the war in East Asia subsided. The task of the military department is to quell the rebellion in the newly acquired territories, and each place has its own law and order. The troops, as well as the standing army of 30 to [-] people, rarely have the opportunity to go out.Facing a place with a population of tens of millions in Japan, the Ministry of the Army only dispatched an infantry brigade, and then used the conflict between the local daimyo and samurai to resolve the affairs of Japan.

After Cao Bianjiao gradually calmed down in East Asia, he wanted to venture to the New World. This was the motivation for Cao Bianjiao to serve as the captain of the North American expedition.

Not only Cao Bianjiao himself, because the government encourages exploration of overseas and new continents, there are many students who want to be adventurers in the Army Lecture Hall, Navy Lecture Hall, and Beijing Normal University Hall.Many members of the North American expedition joined the voyage with the spirit of exploration and serving the motherland.

"This group of people went to Ryukyu for field training and didn't learn anything. It's better to go to the military academy for three months of training." Cao Bianjiao was dissatisfied with the discipline of the expedition team he took over.

In the past, he led soldiers, and the military academy was also managed in a semi-military manner, with strict requirements for discipline. Now he is not very satisfied when he leads an expedition team that is not very strict.

"You are Li Yizhu, a fifth-year student of the Agricultural University, and your ancestral home is Lushunwei?" Cao Bianjiao went to find the team members one by one, wanting to get familiar with these players and their specialties and abilities as soon as possible, so that they can quickly arrange the division of labor and establish a new team in San Francisco. town.

"Yes... yes..." Li Yizhu asked nervously.

Seeing Cao Bianjiao's strict requirements, she thought that Cao Bianjiao was a fierce person, so she couldn't help but feel nervous.

"The most important thing in the construction of a new town is food. Only sufficient food can satisfy the normal operation of the town. I will leave it to you in the future." Cao Bianjiao is still full of respect for these technicians.

Agricultural colleges study how to increase crop yields, including fertilizers, farming systems, maintenance of soil fertility, and hybrid varieties.Moreover, the current agricultural university actually includes four major subjects of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery, providing a group of talents for agricultural progress.The construction of colonies is also inseparable from agricultural talents, and agriculture is also the foundation of industry.

Li Yizhu didn't expect that Cao Bianjiao's tone towards her was gentle, and it didn't seem so fierce.
