Fall in love with the technology tree [Three Kingdoms]

From Haikou, Hainan, Hong Kong, to Kaohsiung, Taiwan, and Weihai, Shandong, the areas listed on Asheng's list of good ports are almost all places outside the Huaihe.The scattered native tribes disappeared from the earth, which did not arouse the vigilance of the Eastern Han Empire at all. Twenty years is enough for the Cao family to build a complete port chain, encircling the mainland from south to north.

The piracy business, which was still in its infancy, suffered a devastating blow. Their small planks were compared to scum by the Cao family's ship in terms of speed and combat effectiveness.In other words, the Cao family has become the only big pirate on the Eastern sea.Even merchant ships coming from Sanhan to the northeast have to pay them escort fees.

However, the last point on the list is different.

Dalian Lushunkou, a famous ice-free port in later generations, is an ancient port that has been used since the Qin and Han Dynasties, and is now called Tajin.Although its population is less than three hundred, it still makes Ah Sheng feel at a loss.

From Penglai in Qingzhou to Tajin in Youzhou, across the mouth of the Bohai Sea, it was originally a way to flee northward.And Tajin, the end point of the sea route, was controlled by the Ta clan of Ta County.

If the refugees want to go north to fight for a living, they have to pay ten qian in Huangxian County, Qingzhou, and another ten qen when they arrive in Tajin, and then they are considered to be on the land of Youzhou.The rich Changbai Mountains opened a small door to them, either hunting or opening up wasteland, filling their hungry stomachs for a long time.

If not caught.

According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, these savages who flowed into the mountains did not have registered households and did not pay taxes. Once they were captured by the northern clans, they would be automatically converted into slaves, and their life and death were not up to them.

Therefore, in order to protect themselves, various ethnic groups were formed. They either continued to flee north, or were isolated from the world, or mixed with Buyeo people, Xianbei people, and Goguryeo people, and they could no longer be distinguished.

A path of barbarism is also a path of survival.

At least, in the hearts of Bu Dalang's family, this is a way out.Even if seawater keeps coming in from the broken side of the ship, and it takes three children to keep bailing out the water to barely maintain the fragile sense of security, there is still a way out.

A long hemp rope connected Bu Dalang's boat to the back of the Chen family's big boat, and the price was 450 of the last [-] five baht coins of the Bu family, plus the only copper hairpin of Bu Dalang's wife Chen's.There is still fifty money, which will be used to pay the "landing fee" for a family of five.

If possible, Bu Dalang didn't want to waste this money.However, the deepest water he has swum in his life is the small river in his hometown Yanzhou. It is almost impossible to take a pregnant woman and three children across the unfamiliar sea.

After fleeing famine, there were still more than 30 members of the Chen family, mostly young and strong, and each family could borrow a large boat with cattle and farm tools on board.This is a small family that can be relied on in troubled times.Following the Chen family's boat, the chance of surviving is far greater than that of a small family.This is the reason why Bu Dalang has to bite the Chen family even if he is stared at and blackmailed.

At least at sea, he wants to bite the Chen family.

Chen's eyes were red: "It's all because of me, if I hadn't quarreled with my father back then..."

"If you hadn't quarreled with Chen Weng back then, you wouldn't have married me, a useless reckless man, and there wouldn't have been Ahan and Aji." Bu Dalang wiped his wife's cheeks, frowned slightly, "rough Yes, the sea breeze blows."

Chen smiled through tears: "I've only been floating on the sea for a day, how can I be blown by the sea breeze?"

The young boy Bu Erlang pretended not to eat dog food, lowered his head and continued to scoop water.He scooped more, and the two little nieces scooped less.

On the other side, Bu Dalang, who comforted his good wife, said to the children: "It's coming soon. We will arrive at Dashi in two days, and we are already halfway there. The old sailors from Donglai are invited on the Chen family's boat, and they will not misjudge the way. "

Ah Ju tugged on her mother's sleeve anxiously: "Father, why do I feel that the waves are getting bigger and bigger?"

Not only are the waves getting bigger and bigger, but also the dark clouds rolling in from the eastern sky, and the sun fading away.Bu Dalang threw down the oar suddenly, found a strong hemp rope from the small broken boat, and tied it around the children's armpits one by one.Until the whole family was tied to the broken boat, the sky was completely overcast.

"It's a storm! Hurry up and furnish the sails!" The big ship in front was already in chaos, but they were packed full of people and grain cattle.

Hope lies ahead.

But the wind and waves blocked them here abruptly, and even swallowed their lives.

The sails were blown full, and the big ship dumped uncontrollably to the left.With a loud bang, the mast snapped and hit the ship.Bu Dalang saw with his own eyes a child of the Chen family who was thrown into the sea by a mast.

Then, the hemp rope pulled the small broken boat forward fiercely, almost causing Bu Erlang to follow in that man's footsteps.

Just as Bu Dalang and his wife grabbed their younger brother, a big wave came over and overturned the Chen family's boat.At the same time, the waterline did not cross the side of the small broken boat, and the whole family fell into the sea.

"Hold the boat!" Bu Dalang yelled, then drew out his dagger and cut off the hemp rope connecting the small boat and the big boat.He bit the dagger between his teeth, grabbed the boat plank with one hand, and dragged his family back to him along the rope around his waist with the other.

The small dilapidated boat is no longer a boat, it can only be regarded as a barely life-saving plank, leading the family ups and downs in the waves, not knowing where they are going.

Ahan's hands were bleeding from the burrs on the wooden board, but the little girl dared not let go of her desire to survive.Even the youngest Aji didn't dare to cry, but just spat out the salty water from his mouth desperately.

The Chen family's boat seemed to be leaking.

The survivors hugged the floating objects and were thrown up and down by the waves together with the Bu family.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen's body gradually lost consciousness, and her breathing became weaker and weaker.Although it is summer, soaking in sea water is still a painful torture for pregnant women.

She might die here, she thought desperately, God really gave no hope at all.

The raindrops are gradually getting smaller, but they can no longer tell where the hopeful north is.Without oars, without sails, he can only drift with the driftwood, and may not be able to land until he dies.

"There's a boat!" Suddenly someone shouted, whoever it was from the Chen family, "There's a big boat!"

Ahan also saw it: "There is a boat! Mother, there is a boat! Mother!"

A giant sea ship with a height of four floors, like a fortress, broke through the waves and appeared on the east sea.Seven or eight tall masts stand like towers.It wobbles in the wind and waves, but even the tallest waves can only throw a few unlucky fish on its deck.In the densely packed round windows on the ship's wall, there is even a comfortable orange light.

In contrast, the so-called big boats of the Chen family are ants at the feet of elephants.

"It's the Cao family's boat!" The pilot sailor was the first to recognize it, and shouted hoarsely, "Help!"

Bu Dalang quickly followed suit and shouted: "Help!"

For a while, the sea full of floating debris was full of voices calling for help.

Finally, in the eyes of everyone expecting, the big ship sailed towards this side.Dozens of figures with ropes tied around their waists jumped down from the high deck; then, dozens of circle-shaped floating objects tied with ropes were also thrown into the sea.

The silhouette of countless ropes soaring on the giant ship is the most spectacular sight that Bu Dalang has ever seen.It's hope, it's strength, it's security, it's the best thing a regime can give.

Because of a brief storm, the Cao family's fleet stayed on the sea for half a day.

"Ah Sheng is really kind." Cao Cao said with a smile, "Didn't you say that there should be no delay?"

Ah Sheng: "If you encounter a shipwreck, you can help. This is also the rule of the sea."

"What kind of rule is this?"

"It is the human law to watch and help each other in the face of natural disasters!" Ah Sheng thumped the table, causing Cao Cao to laugh again.

When the sea was dyed red by the sunset, the maritime search and rescue team all returned.The boatswain Chen Wuxie swung from the escort ship naked to the waist and reported, his eight-pack abs glistening: "I heard from the survivors that there were originally 42 people in their party. Nineteen living people and two corpses were caught. The whereabouts of the remaining 21 people are unknown."

A Sheng nodded: "You have tried your best, then let's set sail."

Chen Wuxie seemed to hesitate for a moment, but she still said: "There is a pregnant woman who has become popular. If the master doesn't save her, it will turn nineteen into eighteen."

"You are dishonest too." Lu Bu jumped down from the cabin roof, "Don't be tricky, my lord."

Chen Wuxie blinked, and looked a bit innocent: "Master will definitely go to save him, it doesn't matter if there are routines or not."

"Since you know she will go, why bother to play pity on her."

Ah Sheng was speechless watching the two ancients "routine" and "routine". She didn't want to admit that these messy words came from her, and she was busy saving people.

Traveling through the halo, in the end, nineteen did not become eighteen, but twenty.

The newborn child of Bu Dalang's family was named Bu Zhen by the head of the Chen family.The earthquake position is the east, implying the Cao family fleet that appeared from the east.

"That sailor is not good at learning, careless and slack, and a little slippery, so he is not worth using. The members of the Chen family have mediocre aptitude, but their temper is not small. But Bu Da is a bit extraordinary." Seeing the coast of Youzhou appear in front of him , Ah Sheng began to discuss with Qin Liu the issue of whether these strangers would go or stay.

One night was enough for Qin Liu to pick out the eighteen generations of these people's ancestors.

"A township brave, who can't read or know how to craftsman, how can he be an 'uncommon'?"

"The Chen family didn't have a single girl on the boat. The two daughters of the Bu family survived. This is how extraordinary Bu Da is."

Fleeing from famine for a year, they had to keep two young girls and a pregnant woman in the midst of hunger, plunder, miscellaneous taxes, disease, and storms, but none of the three were ugly.Then, luck, force, wisdom, tenacity and conscience are all indispensable.

Ah Sheng went to the railing and looked back, looking at the escort ship guarding the stranger: "Before docking, leave the Bu family behind. The Chen family is willing to stay as tenant farmers. That sailor... If you want to leave , Just, just figure it out."

Qin Liu chuckled lightly: "No."

"Break anchor and stop the ship. The marines are on standby. The scouts disguise themselves as refugees and go ashore with the Chen family who are about to leave."

Cao Cao stood up, put on his light armor, and picked up his steel knife.

Lu Bu also sharpened his knife excitedly: "If there are no accidents, it will be a group of mobs who exploit the refugees. 500 people are enough. It's just that we occupy Tajin. How will the county magistrate of Ta County and the Gongsun family of Liaodong explain? Dalang is from Wen County The county magistrate, you can't control the neighbors."

The old man Duan leaned on the cabin door and yawned: "The fish and meat people of the Ta family caused a civil uprising, just happened to be bumped into by Da Lang who was going to take office, and the magistrate of Ta County died in the civil uprising. The memorial has already arrived in Luoyang. This kind of last In the last counties of the prefecture, the whole county has a population of only a few thousand, and the Ta family is placed in the Central Plains, saying that the poor families are all flattering, and if they are killed, they will be killed, the emperor may not care, and the Gongsun family may not care."

"Old Duan is still so... spirited."

"Hahahaha, little girl, you want to say that I am still so vicious."

"...I don't, I'm not, I'm very good."
