Chapter 973 Extra is like the Greeks conquering the ancient Amazons

"It seems that the actual yaw mileage is not as far as expected. Although this place is wilder and the climate is warm."

As the fleet sailed to the north, Li Su finally saw the land appearing in the telescope, his mood also relaxed a lot.

Li Su's wife and concubine may also be the only woman in this era who has had experience in "traveling to the sea" - of course, it is limited to the Eastern world, not including the Romans in the West.

There are also marine ethnic groups like Mediterranean civilization, and noble women go out to sea to migrate.

Zhen Mi and others were floating on the sea for half a month and finally could see the mainland again. They were also very excited. They lay on the porthole of the captain's room in the stern building, holding a telescope and looking out.

"Wow, what is that? Is it the Kun in "Zhuangzi. Xiaoyaoyou"? There is more than one." Zhen Mi and Zhou Ying were so shocked that they almost fell to the ground when they saw the giant whale coming out of the water and gushing the fog.

Fortunately, the telescopes that Li Su placed at the porthole were fixed on the shelf, otherwise these high-end precision instruments worth hundreds of thousands of yuan would be smashed directly.

"This is a whale. It seems that this area is where the warm and cold currents meet, so the fishing grounds are so rich and huge whales are in groups." Li Su at least had some common sense in middle school geography, so he explained it casually to his wives and concubines.

He knew that several famous fishing grounds in the world were at the intersection of sea currents, and it would be better that there were large rivers entering the sea to impact, resulting in the rise of sedimentary substances.

In theory, the Zhoushan Fishery in China also has a warm and cold current intersection, but the cold current part is much weaker, just a little bit of the remnant power of the Qiandao Cold Current after breaking through the first island chain,

The warm current is stronger than that of Japan. It is the one that goes north along the Philippines and Bay Bay coasts, which is considered the front part of Japan's warm current.

Therefore, the formation of fishing grounds in Zhoushan is mainly due to the impact of the Yangtze River entering the sea, and the proportion of ocean currents is relatively small. In Japan, there are no large rivers entering the sea, so the main cause of fishing grounds is ocean currents.

However, Japan's offshore fishery was not famous in later generations because of the explosion of population and scarce resources. It was a huge fishing trip hundreds of years earlier than China, destroying the offshore fishery.

But it is obviously different now. Japan at the end of the Han Dynasty had only a population, and its fishing tools were so primitive. Even if all the islanders caught fish, they could not destroy the fishing resources in the Western Pacific.

Li Su also took a cruise in his previous life to visit the Three Kingdoms of East Asia and traveled a lot. Judging from the size of the whale school, he suspected that Gan Ning had sailed to the southeast end of Iyu Island (Shikoku), sailed north along the shore, and entered Osaka Bay in Setoui.

Sure enough, Gan Ning led the fleet to sail north. Not far away, he saw a very sharp promontory extending towards the Pacific Ocean. The closer he got to that area, the more obvious the fish jumped out of the water, the more humpback whales were, and dolphins followed the bow of the boat to save effort.

On the sea surface outside the tip of the cape, you can also see the cold and warm currents coming from north to south, with slightly different colors, occasionally hedging to form vortexes.

Li Su estimated that it was Muroto, the southeasternest end of Yi Yu. When he played the glorious "Taige Lizhi 5" in his previous life, he even checked in and checked in. Later, he also took photos by passing by on a cruise ship.

Li Su enjoys the beautiful scenery, and Zhuge Liang appreciates it completely at another angle.

He also saw these resources on the ship, but he was thinking about how to spread sea salt when he came to control Sanhan and Fusang, and how to expand the production of pickled salted fish in a crazily manner, and sell them back to the mainland with improved low-cost sea ships to form an economic cycle...

Muroto-kong is the place where the warm current and Chiba cold current are most intense, and it should be the best result here. The warmth and long sunshine of Tosa Bay are also more suitable for large-scale salt drying than other rainy and humid places.

The fleet drove north along Yiyu Island for another day. Gan Ning asked Li Su several times whether to land. Li Su asked Gan Ning to use a telescope to observe whether there were signs of civilized countries nearby.

In the late Han Dynasty, the Shikoku region, especially the coast of Tosa Bay, was indeed not ruled by civilized countries. Gan Ning had no results in several surveys, so it continued to go north and go deep into the bay.

The next day, when he was about to enter Osaka Bay, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but wonder, so he took a quick look over and asked Li Su: "Mr., why are there so many fish in this Fusang land, and there are so many giant whales and dolphins frequently appearing. Yesterday, the sailors on the boat casually took a rope fork, and all of them had thousands of big fish forks, and they couldn't finish them."

Li Su also recounted the geographical common sense he knew to Zhuge Liang, but there was no hidden private information.

Zhuge Liang did not accept it completely, but also thought and criticized it for a while, and then raised new questions:

If the fishing ground really relies on the intersection of ocean currents and the intersection of warm and cold rivers and the entry of the big river into the sea, then the only advantage of ocean currents is better than that of the Yangtze River Estuary. However, there are no big rivers here. The two conditions and advantages and disadvantages are offset by, so it will not be better than Juzhang County, at the Yangtze River Estuary.

But now I have seen it with my own eyes that there are indeed many more fish than Juzhang County, especially giant whales and sharks.

Li Su couldn't answer this, so he asked Zhuge Liang to observe and summarize it himself later. Anyway, the principle had been told to him.

Zhuge Liang hid the problem in his heart and observed it for a while, but he found the reason and figured it out by chance that he could find the reason.

It turned out that before noon that day, Gan Ning led the fleet and finally arrived at the narrow strait between Iyu Island and Awaji Island, and was about to completely enter the Seto Inland Sea.

At the beginning, the ship was also very fast, even faster than normal sailing on the open ocean, which really surprised Gan Ning himself.

Li Su, Zhuge Liang and others were also a little surprised. Out of a tourist-friendly mentality, they went to the deck to let the wind open and feel the sensation of the fleet's rapid advance. Li Su estimated that the speed of the ship could be close to fifteen knots at the fastest, which was almost not the speed that sailboats could achieve. Modern sailboats, even with four masts and five masts, were basically about eighteen knots in high-speed flying shears.

Li Su's current ship is not that streamlined, and his sails are not that big. He will definitely sail less than fifteen knots by the wind. Moreover, the wind was not so strong that it was not considered a storm at that time, so it seemed even more strange.

Zhuge Liang was good at observing. He looked at the coast and the water flow carefully and immediately noticed that the fleet was sailing into a huge water flow, and the water speed was very fast, so he pushed the boat so fast, which shocked him very much.

Zhuge Liang has built sea ships for many years and has also learned about sailing in depth. He has only seen the large drop rivers that rushed out of the mountain canyons in Liangzhou, Yizhou, with such a large water flow speed. But he has never seen the ocean currents in the sea flow so fast. After all, the sea level is flat and there is no drop.

"If something goes wrong, there will be a demon. It is obviously still in the sea. How could the water speed be so fast?" Zhuge Liang was still deducing the calculations there,

As a result, after less than half an hour of thinking about it, the situation suddenly changed before the fleet had all passed through the strait. The speed of seawater flowing suddenly slowed down in a very short time. After another hour, it actually began to flow backwards, and the water speed was getting faster and faster.

Most of the ships in the Ganning fleet had already passed through the strait at this time, but some ships at the end did not come and were rushed backwards. The power of the sail itself could not offset the thrust of the ocean currents and was swept backwards.

It was the first time that Gan Ning encountered this situation. He quickly shouted loudly and used flag words to command some of the ships behind the hall to retreat first, and the ships that had already passed through the strait also tried to get off the side and anchor as much as possible to stabilize the hull and respond to changes in the same way.

Unfortunately, in the end, two big lucky ships were swept into the vortex formed by the reverse currents and collided. Some of the broken hulls and the sailors who fell into the sea were swept away by the big vortex.

Seeing this, Li Su felt a little shocked: "This is Muroto, walking towards the Seto Inland Sea...that is between Shikoku and Awaji Island, this is not the Naruto Strait whirlpool!

If you make a mistake, you should let the fleet take the waterway between Awaji Island and Honshu Island, and you should not take the waterway between Awaji Island and Shikoku! Alas, we didn't expect it."

Li Su was a little bit self-blame, but there was nothing he could do. After all, he was not omniscient and omnipotent. It was impossible for him to know Japan's geography well.

The reason why I saw the uriculture of the ship being destroyed and people was killed was that I remembered that this was the Naruto Strait between Awaji Island and Shikoku. It was because I watched the Japanese comic "Naruto" in my previous life.

The reason why the protagonist in that movie is called "Naruto" is because the ninjutsu designed for the protagonist is called "Rusuenwan", so the naming is to cater to the Japanese people's understanding.

In the Japanese impression, when you mention the whirlpool, you think of the daily rise and fall of the Naruto Strait. When the tide is high, the water level in the Pacific rises, and it pours from the narrow Naruto Strait into the Seto Inland Sea. When the tide is low, the water level in the Pacific first drops, and the sea water in Seto surges out from the Naruto Strait.

When the influx of ocean currents convert and collide, they will form a large vortex, which is also the most famous vortex in Japan.

Of course, the currents brought by this type of high tide and low tide exist in all narrow straits connecting Setoui and the Pacific Ocean and the Japanese Sea, and the narrower the strait becomes, the more obvious it becomes.

For example, the final battle of the famous Genhihei Battle, which left behind the Battle of the Altar Noriu, which was the allusion of "Eight Flyings" by the Hiraki Sutra. Genhi was crazy about the war morality of the time, shooting and killing the boating sailors of the Hiraki family, delaying the attack time, and finally dragging the ups and downs near the Guanmen Strait to a favorable direction for Genhi, and then launching a counterattack.

Not only Japan, but also the Mediterranean in Europe. Sicily has had Greek myths of Siren Banshee since ancient times, because the salinity level of the Eastern Mediterranean and Western Mediterranean near the Sicily Strait is different.

The Eastern Mediterranean was closed before the ancient Suez Canal was dug. The rise at high tide was replenished by the water from the Western Mediterranean, and the Siren Banshee whirlpool in the Sicily Strait.

In contrast, the Osaka Bay between Awaji Island and Honshu Island is much wider than that of Naruto Strait, so although there are fluctuations and tides there, it will not rush to form a large vortex.

Zhuge Liang lived to be twenty-seven years old and this was the first time he saw this magical craft of nature. The question he had previously considered "Why are the fishing grounds richer than Juzhang County" was also revealed as he saw this strange scene.

Zhuge Liang asked, "Teacher! Is it because there are such a whirlpool of rising and falling tides here, and there are internal and external seas, so every day the ocean water pours into the inland sea and then exits, which also forms the effect of "water flow erodes and deposition"? This tide comes once a day, which is similar to the Guangling tide."

Li Su: "...I don't know what you are like to be a teacher. You should learn to analyze and think about it yourself."

The Guangling tide mentioned by Zhuge Liang is the Qiantang tide in later generations. The tide near the Yangtze River estuary has been moving south from the Qin and Han Dynasties to later generations, mainly affected by the alluvialization of silt and sand at the estuary, changes in the terrain, and land growth.

The daily high tide and ebbing tide are obviously more effective for fishing grounds than the single Yangtze River water injection.

...

Due to the unexpected losses caused by the whirlpool, the fleet found a relatively safe anchorage at the north entrance of Naruto Strait, and had to go ashore to deal with it overnight and set up camps. The location of the camp was not on Iyu Island, but on Awaji Island.

Anyway, Li Su didn't plan to open up so many places and could not rule. His main purpose was to capture and eliminate Fusang's original inherent regime.

There were only some primitive tribes on the island, and Li Su had no interest. He just used trade and used supplies to lure local people to barter and provide labor, help log and repair ships, and killed those who wanted to grab things.

After a few days of rest, the stronghold on Awaji Island was not retreated, and the two survivors who survived the crashed ships were kept. They were originally the navy of the Han Dynasty and directly sent weapons to station in the local area and asked the locals to raise their own food and wages.

The locals also plant rice, wheat, green onions, leeks, and fish. There are about a few thousand savages, so there is no problem feeding the crew of the two boats.

The main fleet continued to advance eastward. Two days later, on May 20, successfully landed between Osaka and Kobe in later generations.

Before he got ashore, Li Su was still speculating on what kind of civilization form he would see. After all, he was a very realistic person and never fantasized about "Hui Mihu is a beauty" like those otaku, not to mention that Hui Mihu in this time and space had been killed by Gongsun Kang.

Information collected from the previous information from the Gan Ning Zhou Yu also showed that the rule of Xiematai was limited to Zhuzi Island. So Li Su was very clear that Honshu Island and Zhuzi Island in this era were ruled by two different groups of countries.

In addition, he didn't read much about the early nonsense history of Japan in his previous life, and could not remember the more than ten generations of miscellaneous emperors.

I don’t know what the “Divine Kung Fu Queen” ruled between 200 and 270 AD. Before the Divine Kung Fu Queen, she was her husband and the tenure of the 14th Emperor Zhong Ai. After the Divine Kung Fu Queen, she was her son and the fifteenth Emperor Ying.

Anyway, these records must be nonsense, because "Japan" also says that the empress of the divine power lives over 100 years old. From the perspective of life span, it is still a fictional character. After becoming pregnant at the age of 30, the former emperor died. She was regent of the queen, and her son was born as the prince. She was the prince for seventy years and was not in charge of her rule until her mother died at the age of 100.

Isn’t this kind of life span completely nonsense in ancient times? How could he be a prince for seventy years? Even if his mother can survive, as long as he is a patriarchal society, he should take power immediately when he becomes an adult. The Empress of Divine Kung Fu is just a queen and not a queen.

Before Li Su's people landed, they searched along the way and confirmed signs of a dock anchorage where humans were active before they leaned on it.

Although the local pier is small, it is made of rammed earth and wood. The largest one has only seen a snare boat three or four meters long, and the rest are all without even a snare. Faced with a landing fleet of thousands of people, the local rulers could not resist the enemy from the sea at all, which was easier than hunting.

Gan Ning took advantage of several fishing villages and docks by the sea, and allocated the broken wooden houses to the sailors for temporary residence. They also took out some strange things that the natives had never seen before, bought dietary supplies, wood, and caught people to work.

Not long after, local rulers finally came to trade with Ganning.

Li Su himself only observes behind the scenes and is too lazy to deal with such a mess, let alone whether the locals can speak Chinese.

But the observation quickly refreshed Li Su's cognition.

It turns out that all those who come to negotiate and barter trade are women.

Occasionally, there are men who also help the mothers or sisters in power and protect them.
