Wentang

Chapter 560 Dongsheng Shenzhou
Thousands of miles away on the sea, the big ship has been sinking gradually, and several small boats kept coming and going to transfer the personnel and materials on this ship to the surrounding big ships.

"Priority is transferred to the personnel. Take what you can get, and throw away what you can't get." Sun Fucai stood on the ship's side and yelled loudly with a horn made of iron sheets.

"The boat is about to sink. If Bie Te Niang's ink is stained, please move her away."

"Er Gouzi said to you, what do you want to do with the broken mattress? Hurry up and throw it away. When I come back, labor and capital will replace it for you."

"And you...that whoever, threw the broken vat to the labor and management."

Everyone was busy transferring materials and had no time to pay attention to him. After racing against time, he finally completed the transfer work before the big ship sank, and Sun Fucai was relieved.

"What a bitch..." Sun Fu wiped off his sweat and cursed, but he didn't know who he was cursing.

The time has entered April and it is late spring and early summer in the Tang Dynasty, but it is still in severe winter in the hellish Bering Strait.To urinate, you have to keep hitting it with a wooden stick, otherwise it will freeze.

According to the map Yue Shan gave him, the width of this strait is less than two hundred miles, and it takes less than two days to cross the ocean to Dongsheng Shenzhou, but no one thought that the winter here is so long.

It took them five months to arrive here from Dizhou, but after arriving, they found that the entire sea was frozen and it was impossible to sail.

After asking the local aborigines, I found out that the ice age will not end until April next year.

Speaking of which, it was also Yue Shan's mistake. He never thought that the Bering Strait would freeze for half a year, otherwise Sun Fucai would not have let Sun Fucai set off in summer.

The best time to go from Datang to Dongsheng Shenzhou is in winter. When you arrive at the Bering Strait, it happens that the ice age ends and you can cross the strait.

After arriving on the other side, hurry up to do things, and dare to cross the strait and return to Datang before it freezes in October.

There is another reason for such a mistake besides the wrong information provided by Yue Shan, the route is not familiar.

The map he gave could only point out the general direction, and there was no specific route. Sun Fucai's journey was all groping forward.

Moreover, his group has a task to explore a safe route, so one can imagine how difficult this journey is.

The journey that originally only took two months took four or five months, just in time for the arrival of the ice age.If the route is familiar and there is enough time to cross the strait, there will not be so many things.

However, their trip is the first voyage with a clear purpose in the history of the Tang Dynasty and in the history of mankind. It is worth spending more time on the exploration route.

However, Sun Fucai and his party didn't know what their actions represented, and they were extremely irritable in the face of the frozen strait.

In desperation, Sun Fucai ordered to rest in place.

They also conquered several local tribes during the renovation... It is said that 90.00% of the ancient ocean adventurers have another identity-pirates.

This is actually not true at all.

Sailing on the dry ocean is a very tormenting thing. Over time, all moral rules have become a joke, and finally only human instinct is left.

Alcohol and sex are the best narcotics.

Alcohol is scarce and difficult to obtain, and sex has become everyone's only choice.The main purpose of conquering those native tribes was for slaves and women.

Slaves are used to order, and women are used to vent their desires.

Sun Fucai did not stop this, he knew very well that he couldn't stop it - if it wasn't because he was an eunuch, he would have made the same choice as everyone else.

But he also has his own pursuit, which is to leave a name in history.

Because he had served the queen in the palace, his vision surpassed most people in this era, and he knew how great an achievement it was to bring back the good breed.

It is this great pursuit that supports his day-to-day sailing on the dry sea.

So as long as these people under him don't rebel, as long as it doesn't delay his recovery of the good seed, no matter what they do, he can turn a blind eye to it.Rules and so on, let's talk about it later.

During this period, he was not idle, collecting information everywhere, getting a general understanding of the situation here, and sorting out the previous HNA records.

For example, which forces have a wide range of rule; which places are suitable for parking and can be used as resting places; which route can be used as the main route, which route can be used as a backup route, and so on.

After waiting until April, the freezing period finally ended, and the ice and snow on the sea surface began to melt. Only then did Sun Fucai lead his people across the strait.

However, the weather is still cold, and the most dangerous thing is the ice floes in the water. For safety, their speed is very slow, and more than a dozen small boats are specially dispatched to eliminate dangers around.

However, an accident still happened. A small piece of ice was rolled up by the waves and smashed onto a large ship, leaving a hole the size of a water tank in the hull.

If it is summer, if the water temperature is not so low, Sun Fucai will definitely try to repair it.

But no if.

It was too cold and the water was too cold, and salvaging the ship was likely to make a lot of people sick.He knew very well the consequences of getting sick on a ship. A common ailment on land could kill a person on a ship.

At the time of departure, there were two hundred crew members plus 1000 soldiers, but now there are less than 1000 people left, and the rest died on the road.

So he decisively ordered the ship to be abandoned, even the supplies it carried were not required, as long as the people were transferred to other ships.

Their fleet has ten large ships with a length of 60 meters or more, and the largest one is 90 meters long and 55 meters wide. It is not a big problem to abandon a ship.

However, the silence of a ship is not a good thing, which made everyone feel a little depressed, but this mood did not last long.

Not long after, a pleasant voice came from the observation deck:
"Hey...Look, look, land, there is land ahead."

Sun Fucai, who was writing records in the cabin, threw the pen and ran out. When he came out, he found that the deck was full of people.

He squeezed to the bow and took out his clairvoyance to look eastward, and what caught his eyelids was a long coastline.

Already an experienced navigator, he can easily judge that this kind of coastline is definitely not something that islands can have, so there is only one possibility, Dongsheng Shenzhou has arrived.

Unable to restrain his ecstasy any longer, he shouted loudly: "Brothers, Dongsheng Shenzhou is here, we are here."

"Oh!" Everyone cheered together.

After ten months of voyage, they finally arrived at the fabled destination, and that kind of joy cannot be experienced without light experience.

After all, Sun Fucai is the leader of the team, and he knows that the more he can't be taken lightly at this time, he doesn't want to be the one who died before dawn.

So he quickly adjusted his mood, ordered everyone to drive at a uniform speed in an orderly manner, and the others were ready to land.

Three hours later, this long-distance fleet from Datang finally docked on the coast of Dongsheng Shenzhou.
