Chapter 95 The Dog

Most of the greatness in this world begins with adventure, and adventure means that it will most likely fail at first.

People who are in the test often do not know that they are in the test. They can only see endless despair when they raise their eyes. Each necessary quality determines whether it will fail. But when those necessary quality achieve and determines whether it can succeed, it is a person's inner tenacity.

No one is afraid of suffering. The most difficult thing is to be defeated by suffering several times before standing up.

"There is a string of islands on the sea south. From west to east, the savage Jurchen Black Water Marteller dragged a raft and could come to buy and sell. You said that they lived in an igloo, and they were leading a dozen dogs out to hunt. How far was they living five or six hundred miles away?"

Ma Gui rubbed his face and let the rider who was lost to six hundred miles away to rest. Then he ordered his confidant entourage to dig out the map of Wangxiazhou, survey and map the coastal map of northern Asia, and patch it up together in the Melica map of southern Spain, staring at the map for a long time without saying a word.

"Who are we going north?"

This is not the first time Magui wants to slap himself in the face after being appointed as the general of Kuwu Island. He can't even remember how many times this has been.

Because when these three incomplete maps were put together and the letters returned by the Jurchen rider, he gradually had a general guess about the production activities here.

The Jurchens said that the black water maritime was on a raft toward the east island. Magui thought that he was likely to lead a fleet to dock there. At that time, they had just walked 4,000 miles and were unjustly detoured, but there was still a lot of supplies on the ship and stopped on an island for a few days.

Whether it is the landowner who was later called the Chukochi people in Wangxiazhou or the natives who were later called the Aleutian people in Xihanmen who went 600 miles south, there is no difference in the eyes of the Ming people, nor any other title.

This is the same whether it is the Central Plains or the Jurchens.

They also have only one title, according to the animals they depend on for survival, called the Deer Tribe or the Dog Tribe that belongs to the savage Jurchen Black Water Mart.

Ma Gui also met a family there, and asked them the way, asking how to drive a boat to the north. Guangtong translated four of them, namely Jianzhou Jurchen, Beishan Jurchen, Savage Jurchen and the soldiers of the Zhilu tribe, and they got the answer they wanted. They left calmly, leaving some spices brought by Nanyang and two sets of Ming army winter clothes in return.

That is to say, if he asked about the way east at that time, this long voyage might have been another result. The cape would be named Wangxia Prefecture, and the three guards of Kuwu Island were likely to have successfully landed in North Asia Melica and began to enclose land and reclaim.

Ma Jin didn't understand what it meant at first when she looked at the three pictures. Suddenly, she flashed her mind, patted her thighs and screamed, "I just said why don't you even have a figure? Let's go away!"

Not that they had gone far, they drove to a place where only polar bears and walruses could survive.

Going too far.

Ma Gui stood up with his fists, gritted his teeth and looked left and right, and then he calmed down in his deep breathing, saying, "From the three guards of Kuwu, our troops sailed for more than 12,000 miles before they arrived in Xiazhou; from Wangxiazhou, they sent a fleet of more than 10,000 miles to explore the way more than 2,000 miles, and then they decided to set off. After sailing for more than 10,000 miles, they sailed for more than 300 miles.

When he said this, the general general who led his army to Mongolia for more than ten years was crying: "More than 15,000 miles, more than 400 lives."

Just because I didn’t ask any more questions, is there a way to the east?

He felt wronged, so wronged!

Magui looked at the Baihu House, named 4,000 miles at the easternmost end of the Ming map on the west, which was named 4,000 miles by Majin. In that place, Majin led a fleet to go around the bay of the former land of Nurkandus for 4,000 miles. The Baihu House was named in this way to remember this detour. They thought that the road behind was right from that point on.

But unexpectedly, that was just the beginning of another fork in the road.

However, it is useless to complain about oneself, and Ma Gui didn't complain too much. He waved his hand and said, "Go and ask the rider if you remember the way he came. He sent more than ten missions to bring spices, gifts, and two walrus tusks to see them, and inquire about the surrounding terrain and weather."

"If the dogs are not hostile to the Ming army, we need to borrow people, dogs and deer that are sledding, and these baggages are transported south by us, and we don't know how many months will it take to leave."

Ma Gui sat down slowly, and he also put his pipe in his mouth and said, "Let them see the spices from Nanyang, thick winter clothes, and our knives, and also see their goods. If you help me this time, in the future, the Ming ship will dock, you will make a special trip with us to communicate with us."

"If there is no other accident, the delegation will send two horses, and ask the local government to send someone to escort and guide you. Be sure to arrive at the 4,000-mile house before the New Year and bring back the information we found. The weather there is much better than that in Wangxiazhou. I guess the ice and snow will melt in March."

He did not know that the advance army stationed in Wangxia Prefecture had been ordered by the court to be transferred back to Kuwu Island by Ni Shangzhong, and according to the Spanish route, he planned to go to Yamelica after the New Year. He did not know that he had worked hard to recruit three Jurchens and North Korea, and tens of thousands of Mongolian flag troops, and had been transferred to Japan by the court to support the Japanese king to suppress the martial family.

Today, Wangxia Prefecture has only three or four hundred flag troops guarding the fleet. Even they have to sail back to Kuwu Island after the glacier melts.

He didn't even know that his brothers and his troops were already dead in the Ming Dynasty. He was given rewards and imperial edicts to the Right Guard of Datong, and his son went to the Yinyiwei Yinguan.

In the upcoming third year of Wanli, the Ma family can no longer hang Spring Festival couplets.

He only knew one thing - he found the way to North Asia Melica, and really saw this land for the court. His mission had already begun well!

After saying that, he turned to Ma Jin sitting aside and said, "I guess the dog department is not threatening us. There will be no people in the snow and ice. They should not be too many. They should be like me and would not want to die and would not want to come to fight us, but we also need to be careful."

Ma Jin smiled. On the ice field, they had not seen the deer and dogs on the other side. They were armed like archers in armor, and they were not even considered to be the previous dynasty. They were about to go to the Song Dynasty, wearing armored helmets on their heads, with a large armoured encirclement, and using a long bow and spear. They were brave, but they faced an expedition team with almost everyone with a flint-lock gun - forget it.

"It's true that we are afraid of cold and hunger, but we are not afraid of war." Ma Jin patted the ice on her cuffs and said with a stern look: "We come to Yamelica, we are going to fight under the order!"

It was indeed the case at the beginning. Who would have thought that he would be frozen by the orders?

If we fight alone, no matter how big the situation is, it will be much easier than the environment they are facing now.

After finding people and directions, Ma Gui's heart towards the south is stronger. Anyway, the road towards the north is also blocked by the snow-capped mountains, so it is impossible for him to stay here forever.

Due to the difficulty of carrying the cannons of weight above General Zhenshuo, they hid in the Shuihufeng Cave. They were worried that they would not be able to find them in the future, so they erected several stone tablets nearby, with Ma Gui's own poems and essays hidden in the mystery of the cannon search.

He didn't bring all the two-jin cannons, so he pulled out thirty doors and walked with the military supplies, made sleds, packed up the luggage, pulled them with dogs, and pulled them with deer, and pulled them with deer if they couldn't pull them. They went south along the ice sea, surveyed, mapped and opened up a new continent in their hearts!
