Chapter 434 The moonlit night at sea, the voice from Haiyuan!
An unprecedented scale of the Daqin navy, down the river.
It has long been known that His Majesty the First Emperor was on a personal expedition.
Nowadays, a large number of people from various counties naturally come to the piers of their respective counties to watch the ceremony.
Looking at the majestic fleet coming in the distance, the shouts from both sides of the strait continued.
He is constantly praising the function of His Majesty the First Emperor, and the kindness of the Daqin immortals.
At the same time, he is also cheering for the prosperity of the Qin Dynasty.
This burst of cries seemed inconspicuous.
However, it boosted the morale of the 100,000 soldiers in the fleet.
Sailing all the way, cheering all the way.
No matter day or night, every time you pass by the dock of the county, you can see countless people gathered here.
This also greatly satisfied Lao Zhao's "seven and eighty zeros" for his vanity.
In one day, the fleet entered the sea along the river and came to the Bohai Sea.
This time, the navy's marching route did not take the fastest route, from the Hanzhong Wharf to the East China Sea from Kuaiji.
Instead, they went directly from Xianyang to the big river, changed their course several times after entering the sea, and then went to Fuzhu.
The most important factor among them is because this time it is for Lao Zhao Yujia to personally recruit.
If starting from Hanzhong, there are too many uncertain factors on the road from Xianyang to Hanzhong, and it is not conducive to the people of Xianyang City to see off the ceremony.
After all, in today's Daqin, Xianyang is the capital of the country, so naturally everything must be dominated by Xianyang.
Going to the Bohai Sea, although entering the sea nearly a day earlier, the distance traveled by sea has been lengthened.
All in all, the time spent on the road was a little longer.
However, for such a short distance, for a ship equipped with a steam engine propeller power structure, it is a matter of one or two hours at most.
"Uuuuuuuuuu...35
With the loud whistle, the naval fleet that entered the sea began to change its formation.
From the end-to-end connection of the original river voyage, it has become a formation with Lao Zhao's flagship of the Black Water Dragon in the center, and other ships guarding on both sides.
More aggressive than before.
"You stay, I'll go back to rest first.
Lao Zhao watched for a while on the deck, but he couldn't bear the more severe seasickness after entering the sea. He quickly said hello to Su Yu and went back to rest.
Su Yu smiled and shook his head.
Lao Zhao's seasickness is so evil.
If things go on like this, I am afraid that before Lao Zhao has fully adapted to sailing at sea, the fleet has already reached Fusang Island.
Watching the sunset gradually sinking below the sea level, Su Yu went upstairs to the wheelhouse.
This is the position of this year's Daqin steam-mechanical ship, which specializes in controlling the direction of the ship.
It is located at the highest point of the whole ship, so it is convenient to observe the conditions of the sea and the surrounding fleet.
If it wasn't for Lao Zhao's seasickness, he should have been sitting here.
In the wheelhouse at this time, three experienced helmsmen are on duty.
At the very front of the rudder is a huge modified Sinan, which is used to guide the navigation.
Sinan has existed since the Warring States Period.
This large Sinan was brought to the boat by Su Yu from the Old Zhao Palace.
Anyway, Daqin to Fusang is only more than a day's voyage, plus there are astrology and coastline as a guide.
There is no need to go to war and waste time and energy to build a nautical compass.
Explain the principle of this kind of thing, and then leave it to Li Simengyi and others who stayed in the customs to do it.
Glancing at the heading and comparing it to an enlarged version of the chart hanging on the wall, Su Yu exhorted:
"You must control the course of the ship and mark the track on the chart every half hour. 99
Today's Daqin has no satellite status, so Su Yu can't be careless.
"Here!
The three helmsmen on duty saluted solemnly.
Obviously they also know that in the entire fleet, the position of the three of them is the most important.
After all, the entire fleet is now following the flagship of the Blackwater Dragon.
If there is really something else, the entire fleet will be lost in the vast sea, and the immortals and His Majesty will be in deep crisis...
Even if they had a hundred more heads, it wouldn't be enough to chop them off.
After instructing the three, Su Yu left the wheelhouse and continued to blow the sea breeze and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
More than 30 giant ships, surrounded by a large number of small ships.
It can be called the most luxurious fleet in the world today, running rampant on the vast Bohai Sea.
The sky is dark, and the stars are shining.
The dark blue sea reflects sparkling waves under the bright moon hanging high in the sky.
With such a beautiful view, Su Yu was in a state of ecstasy and intoxicated.
In fact, it stands to reason that the starry sky, the bright moon and the vast sea in ancient and modern times should not have changed.
But it may be the reason for the lack of modern technological influence.
The sky is clear, so that the starlight is not affected in the slightest.
The sea water is clear, and there is not even the slightest bit of man-made garbage.
Su Yu lay on the deck, constantly thinking about how the future Daqin and the future world will develop.
Also sigh.
In just two years, he has already begun to worry about the world.
Fate is truly amazing.
Suddenly, drowsiness struck.
As summer approaches, the sea breeze blowing from the south has a touch of warmth.
Su 5.0 Yu gradually fell asleep like this...
After an unknown amount of time, the sea level in the east gradually turned white.
Soldiers on various ships came to the deck one after another and watched the rising sun "rising from the sea".
Because of the reason for the landing operation, the soldiers on the ship were basically the ground troops of Da Qin, and the navy only accounted for a very small part.
For these people who have always lived in the inner road area, the beauty of the sea is undoubtedly full of attraction.
And at this moment, a strange and ethereal, yet faintly fearful voice, suddenly came from the sea not far in front of the Black Water Dragon.
"Woo~woo...
"Ugh..."
