In the past, we had experience in transporting people and materials by land in Goujiazhuang, but this time we decided to use all ships for sea transportation, so as to accumulate experience for the next large-scale sea transportation of migrants.

"The Navy can send landing craft." Chen Haiyang said, "Dengyingzhou has to undertake the task of transporting materials in Guangzhou, and it will not move for the time being. ”

"How much can Fubo transport?"

"About 70~80 people at a time." Chen Haiyang scratched a pencil on his notebook and said, "It's less than Dengyingzhou, and the cannons and ammunition on Fubo occupy a lot of tonnage." ”

"What about 6 transports?"

"It's all small boats, and each boat can hold 30~40 people." Chen Haiyang calculated, "We also captured two 200 boats and five or six small boats in the village, which can be used, and the transportation capacity is not a problem." ”

"How many days are you going to walk at sea?"

"The sailboat is a little more generous, two days."

"What about the food?"

"Meadow Five. This thing is sturdy enough to be full. Chen Haiyang is clearly not interested in dry and hard rice crackers.

"There is no problem in transporting people, the concentrated big ships will be transported in one wave, and ordinary people do not have much property to transport, but the timber, pig iron, hemp wadding, and tung oil here occupy a lot of tonnage."

Xi Yaya said: "I suggested that the army units should withdraw part of it as soon as possible, and now there are five platoons and three guns in one breath, and my hometown is a little empty." ”

Dongmen Blowing Rain said: "Starting tomorrow, every time a boatload of people is withdrawn, a shift will be arranged to set off with the ship, and the troops will be transported and escorted." Leave a platoon and wait for the new ship to be launched before withdrawing. The question is, is everything arranged over there? More than 500 people will come at once! ”

"Wu De has already made a plan. The house is still being built, so let's live in a quarantine camp - it's empty anyway. ”

"Will Fubo be used here to affect the fortification of Bopu? Now the situation is tense. Wen Deji remembered.

"It's fine to have four fishing boats here, they're all loaded with breech guns. High mobility, high speed, high firepower, whoever comes is looking for death. ”

"Tomorrow, the first wave will transport all the Lu and Lin families." A smile appeared on the corner of Wen Desi's mouth, "Leave Shipwright Zhang to continue shipbuilding." ”

The next day, the whole Baitu jumped up, everywhere there were adults shouting, children making trouble, which was mixed with women's cries, the traverser was prepared, which people went first, which people left, and sent five-colored pieces of paper to everyone's hands.

There are many passages pulled out of the beach with ropes, and there are five-color flags marked by the passages, and people with pieces of paper will never make a mistake when walking on the boat according to the colors. The ship specially brought hundreds of rattan baskets with harnesses and a large number of straw ropes, which were distributed to each family to bundle their luggage.

"This old ticket, can you board your passenger ship......" Li Haiping hummed a song and stood on the back floor of Fubo, watching the flow of people helping the old and the young, with large bags and small bags, and slowly flowing slowly under the urging of the soldiers.

Lin Gonglao looked up at the "thief" who was humming a little song, which was as strange as the clothes they were wearing. The patriarch called them "chiefs" and was respectful -- he was afraid that the firearms of these "thieves" would be powerful: the fort on the bayonet alone had spent no less than a few hundred taels of silver in the village, and a lot of money had been spent on the short-term workers who guarded the cards.

Now I've been arrested, and I don't know what will happen to me in the future. Lin Gonggong was particularly annoyed by this. He is a member of the Lin family, and the patriarch is also his own uncle, belonging to the generation that grew up in Baitu, who has never suffered hardships since childhood, and belongs to the "ruling class" of the village. Like the second generation of the Lin and Lu families who grew up in the village, he was not interested in the crafts of his godfathers, and only learned seven, seven, eight, eight, and eight.

Obviously, such days are gone in the future, the more he thinks about it, the more annoyed he becomes, and suddenly he was hit on the back, and when he turned around, it was Wang Sangou, a bachelor in his fifties, who was taken in by the clan as a long-term worker, in fact, he was a slave shared by the whole Lin family.

He was already annoyed, and was hit by a minion again, with a faint pain in his back, and couldn't help venting his anger on this unlucky bastard, raising his hand was a mouth, and raising his leg was a kick:

"You coffin scoop, do you have long eyes?!"

This Wang Sangou was covered with a large bag and a small basket, and he was originally walking step by step, but he slapped and kicked him, his center of gravity was unbalanced, and he immediately fell to the sky. Several young men and women of the Lin family around him laughed when they saw him looking ridiculous. The older ones, however, had gloomy faces and busily pulled away the laughing children.

Between this fight and scolding, the team was already blocked. The soldiers in front hurried over to clear the way. Li Haiping saw clearly from the ship's floor, and shook his head secretly, in this place where a hundred pictures are so big, there are people who are powerful.

"Who is this man?" Someone is asking.

"It seems to be someone from the Lin family, I heard that the kid is quite arrogant, and the patriarch is still unwilling to surrender." Li Haiping said casually.

"Such a bullish character?"

After Lin Gongji beat Wang Sangou, he was in a better mood, and he kicked the old man a few times in a row, and when he was on the rise, a big man broke into the team, carrying a stick.

"What's the fuss?!" The big man scolded, "Nothing to fight and play? ”

"The little ones don't dare." Wang Sangou begged for mercy while getting up, "No fight, no fight-"

Lin Gonggong is young and vigorous in the end, and suddenly he hasn't completed the role change, and he doesn't fall down, and he said with a horizontal face: "Lao Tzu is a fart if he beats a slave—"

As he was talking, there was a buzz on his head, and suddenly the world spun around, and when he came back to his senses, he was already lying on the ground, his head was hot and swollen and painful, and he had already made a big bag when he touched it. The "thief" carried a stick and squinted at him.

"Civility and politeness, do you understand? Open your mouth and shut up Lao Tzu, you and your father are the same generation? ”

Lin Gonglao was so angry that he almost turned his back on it, but the hero still understood that he didn't suffer the immediate loss, and got up quietly, and prepared to go over dejectedly.

“zhanzhu！” The man's voice came from behind him. Lin Gonglao held back his anger and tried to make himself look mild:

"What's the matter?"

"You have so much strength, help the old man carry things."

“！” Lin Gonglao just wanted to get angry, and the burning pain in his head reminded him that this was not what it used to be, so he had to go over and help Wang Sangou pick up a basket, and Wang Sangou shook his hand.

"All the food has been eaten in the dog's stomach?" The man's words were vicious and mean, "That's what the young man does?" ”

Lin Gonglao silently picked up two more packages, and the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of this group of thieves in his heart.

When he walked over with his head down, a burst of laughter suddenly erupted around him, and he didn't need to look up to know that this was not from the Lin family, they must be some long-term and short-term workers and other characters. People who saw him smiling all over his face on weekdays and didn't dare to raise his head now dare to laugh at him!

Full of resentment, he walked to the trestle with the flow of people, where there were many straw bales, and one was issued when he walked by. When he took it and opened it, it was a bamboo tube, stuffed with a plug, which seemed to be water. A pack of things wrapped in thick paper, torn a little, is the bait.

It's quite thoughtful. Lin Gonglao muttered in his heart, stroked the swollen bag on his head, what will happen in the future? He was a little scared in his heart, and understood a simple truth-Shijie is not only the size of Baitu Village.

Zhou Dongtian returned to the ship's building triumphantly, and Li Haiping smiled hesitantly: "Do you have a sense of justice?"

"This kind of punishment, if you don't get rid of his arrogance, you will have to toss it in the future. It's ours in the world! Zhou Dongtian spun the stick in his hand quickly, "I still have mercy on my subordinates, otherwise I won't be able to see any injuries on the outside, and there will be five labors and seven injuries inside-"

"Don't, what's the use of you punching out a piece of waste." Li Haiping muttered in his heart, why did the executive committee transfer Zhou Laomao, who was engaged in printing, to interrogate him for a long time, right? He lived in a dormitory with Zhou Dongtian, and he used to see him come back in the middle of the night, and he didn't say anything when asked what he was doing, only smiling, and later learned that every time the security team interrogated prisoners, he had to be transferred to work.

Wen Deji sent off the first fleet, and took people everywhere to inspect the windfall. There are many woods, including camphor, fir and pine, and there are more than 500 roots; All kinds of hardwoods: Hainan sandalwood, Guangdong lychee wood and Tieli wood also have more than 100 roots and thousands of thick and thin bamboos. There are also various materials such as pig iron, tung oil, jute, white hemp, brown hair, oyster shells, etc.

In the warehouse, he also saw a variety of boat accessories, including several pairs of four-claw iron anchors. Plenty of sails, ropes, nails. There are also many weapons. Upon inspection, he found that the village had more than a dozen guns, all of which were British-made, or more precisely made by the East India Company, and belonged to the 24-pounder naval gun, a short-barreled cannon unique to the British. As for the muskets that the captives said were not good, they were the arquebuses made in England. It seems that the British are very active in this area.

According to Zhang, the red-haired people would sometimes come here to replenish fresh water and repair the damage of the ship. They would pay with fire, weapons, and silver.

"Will you repair the red-haired boat?" Wen Deji asked.

"The shape of the red-haired boat is different from that of China, but the ship is always a ship," Zhang said respectfully. He was only in his early forties, and not only was he the best at crafting, but he was also "ingenious" in building large ships.

"Would you like to build a red-haired boat?"

"Sails—" he hesitated, "there is no such cloth as much. "After thinking about it, "There are also ropes on the sails, which are very complicated, but the manipulation is ingenious, and the doorway in it cannot be done without a foreign craftsman." ”

"I know all this—"

Zhang Ji glanced at the "bearded man" in front of him in surprise, such a pampered and well-behaved old man would also do this?

"The little one is willing to give it a try."

"What's your name?"

"Little cheap name Zhang machine."

Wen De paused for a moment and said with a smile: "Okay, it seems that you can live up to your name when you come to us." ”
