Song Dynasty Iron Armored Army

Chapter 240 The Voyage Begins

Three days later in the evening, at Dinghai Port Wharf, Chai Lin and others boarded a steam centipede boat from the port.There are a lot of things prepared on the centipede boat, dozens of iron pots, spears, simple knives, axes, hatchets, salt and other items ready to be exchanged.In addition, there are also a lot of equipment needed for the expedition.

Daoist Ling Yun said: "Master Chai, this boat is not right. Centipede boats have a flat bottom and are known as shore slippers. How can they enter the ocean?"

Chai Lin smiled and said: "The Taoist priest is really not simple, he knows so many things. This boat is small and slow, so naturally it can't go overseas. We are going to the navy port on Hailong Island. There are many people in the commercial port here. "

With a distance of more than ten miles, the steamship arrived before it started running.

In a corner of the navy port, Chailin said, "Don't be afraid, this ship is rather weird."

Ruan Xiaoqi said: "Brother, don't worry, we are at most surprised, not afraid."

Just as the waves were churning, a huge submarine warship came out of the sea, like a black humpback whale. Lin also didn't understand what it was doing, the submarine could still fly?There is also a large transparent cover on the head, and you should be able to see the underwater world clearly when sitting in it.

This is the reward of the system, submarine warship.It carries six passengers and five tons of cargo.Chai Lin nicknamed the warship the Humpback Whale.

Everyone was stunned, and it took a long time to recover from the fact that there is such a strange ship in the world.

Chai Lin said: "Xiaoqi, don't be in a daze, let's start to move in the goods and supplies and we are going to set off."

"Yes."

There were several tons of goods, and everyone carried them back and forth several times before they were completely shipped.In addition to the goods used for exchange, there are green tea, oranges, etc., mainly because they are worried about the lack of vitamins during the long-term voyage.

Ruan Xiaoqi said, "Brother, is the fresh water we filled a little short, only two thousand catties?"

"Xiao Qi doesn't have to worry about the speed of the boat. It will only take about ten days to go overseas. And this boat has the ability to produce fresh water, so the journey is very convenient."

A group of people were completely stunned when they came to the guest cabin. It was as big as a small living room, with bright lights, complete tables and chairs, and a kitchen next to it.

Chai Lin made an arrangement and said: "This is for when the boat stops for a rest. Everyone go back to their seats and sit down. Let's set off right away."

"Okay." Everyone sat in their seats and buckled up their seat belts.This kind of seat is more comfortable than the soft seat of a motor car, and you can lie down and sleep for a long time.

Chai Lin came to the pilothouse and started the boat. Only then did he understand why such a small thing was called a battleship. There were huge waves outside, and the boat was flying close to the water.

It's easy to go 120 kilometers per hour, and it doesn't need to be done by Chailin. After setting the destination, it will drive by itself.The first destination was Jeju Island, an island in the south of Koryo that was still under the governance of the Tamna people at this time.

Waking up early at dawn, everyone was hungry, Chai Lin stopped the boat, everyone ate some biscuits and snacks, cooked some bacon noodles, and had a delicious meal.

The sun is just right, the sea breeze is warm, and suddenly there is a beautiful singing.

Daoist Lingyun suddenly shivered and said, "It's broken, the mermaid is here to sing."

Chai Lin was amused and said, "This is a humpback whale, let's go and see it."

Chailin opened the closed cabin, revealing the deck.Everyone looked around and saw two huge humpback whales playing in the water not far away, splashing waves with big wings and big tails.

Ruan Xiaoqi said: "My dear, this is really big. I'm afraid this one weighs tens of thousands of catties. If you grab one, a whole village can't eat it all."

"Whale oil is used for lighting. Many villages will hunt small whales near the coast. No one dares to mess with this kind of big guy. You must have a big enough boat." Chailin said.

The humpback whale sang gracefully, splashed the waves and ran away slowly.

After a while, a group of naughty dolphins came. These little villains were so naughty that they wandered around the ship on purpose.

"There are so many dolphins here, we can hardly see them near Hailong Island." Ruan Xiaoqi said.

"That's the Bohai Sea. The sea is very shallow. Here is the deep sea, with a depth of hundreds of thousands of meters. Naturally, there are more whales and sea monsters. Dolphins are not a threat to people. If you encounter great white sharks, it will be more dangerous, so Sailors try not to get into the water," Chailin reminded.

"Yes, when my brother invited me, he said that a fish is as big as an ox. I still didn't believe it at the time, but now I find that my brother said it in a small way. That big shark is bigger than ten cows." Ruan Xiaoqi exclaimed.

Dian Zhengnan said: "It's better to be in the mountains, the sea is too scary."

After another one or two hundred miles, a huge island appeared in front of it, which was more than 100 miles long from north to south. The island was lush with forests and grasslands.

Chai Lin said: "Let's find a place to go to the island and see if there are any rare things on the island."

After going around half a circle, I found that there are a few fishing villages in the northeast corner of the island, and there are no other people.

Chailin found an unoccupied harbor to stop the boat, and went ashore on a cork raft.

There is no cropland near the village. Dozens of cows graze aimlessly on the barren beach. It seems that there is no possibility of corn and sweet potatoes here.

As he was walking, he suddenly found a young man under the crooked neck tree in front of him. He untied the bag of his robe and hung it on the branch.

"Tai, what are you doing?" Dian Zhengnan yelled violently, and appeared in front of the young man with a big iron halberd in his hand.

The young man had never seen such a strong man before, and he collapsed on the ground in fright.

Chai Lin asked Taoist Lingyun, saying: "You travel around the world, go over and ask him why he can't think about it."

Daoist Lingyun is very embarrassed, he travels all over the world, but he can only speak dialects from different places in the Song Dynasty, so how can the savages of Fanbang, a small overseas island, understand the dialect.

Before Daoist Ling Yun could speak, the young man said, "You, you, who are you, how can you speak Da Song dialect?"

The young people speak with an authentic Kaifeng accent, which is the standard Mandarin of the Song Dynasty.

Ling Yun shook the Buddha dust, and said: "Young man, I see that your forehead is very dark, and I am afraid that a catastrophe is imminent."

"Wow, who told you to save me, just let me die. I don't want to live anymore, I don't want to live anymore." The young man cried.

Daoist Lingyun said with a fairy-like look: "Although things are difficult, there is no turning point. Seeing that you have a predestined relationship with the poor Taoist, this saved you. But you have to tell the truth."

It turns out that this island is called Tamna Island, Tamna Country, but it is smaller in size, and there are three villages, large and small, with a population of 5000.The young man in front of him is Luo Qing, the king of Tamra, who once studied in Tokyo, the capital of the Song Dynasty, for several years, and speaks Chinese very well.But recently, he, the king, had a major event, and the country of Korea sent an ultimatum, asking them to hand over [-] catties of dried fish and [-] catties of sea cucumber.But now the country of Tamna is very poor, and many people are not willing to pay. If they can't finish it as scheduled, they will arrest him, the king, and go to jail.

Daoist Lingyun stretched out his hand and conjured an orange out of thin air, and said, "So it's His Majesty the king, disrespectful and disrespectful, don't be sad about this matter, eat an orange first to calm your shock."

Luo Qing was very surprised holding the orange, did he meet an old fairy?
