Chapter 549 Overseas Vision
At the back of the fleet, Guo Dapang stood at the bow and looked at the vanguard who suddenly accelerated, with a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.Just as he was about to make a sound, a soldier ran over quickly.

"Soldier of Enlightenment"

"The vanguard fleet not only did not get out of the way, but speeded up"

A tone mixed with anger rang in Fatty Guo's ears. It was unexpected that the coalition forces of Wu, Zhang, and Zhu were so unruly.Don't they know what a military order is?Where does such a contempt for military orders put military discipline?

"Order the central army and the rear army to slow down and let the vanguard reach Yizhou first"

"promise"

The soldier replied loudly to Fatty Guo.

Lu En and Gu Kun standing behind frowned, looking a little heavy.The actions of Wu, Zhang, Zhu and other aristocratic families in the south of the Yangtze River made it clear that they did not believe in Zhou Mu.But that's right, they have been secretly competing with the state shepherd, and it is normal to have such worries.It's just a flagrant violation of military orders, but it makes people a little annoyed.

Since it is possible to violate military orders, how much is it different from drawing swords and facing each other.It's just that Fatty Guo's reaction was too flat, isn't there some fraud in it?

"Isn't Master Guo angry that they didn't obey the military order?"

"Why be angry"

Guo Dapang asked them back.

Lu En and Gu Kun were at a loss for words.

"How can we open up Yizhou if the military orders are not clear?"

"What do you guys think of this overseas place?"

Guo Dapang asked the two people what he didn't ask.

To be honest, when I learned that the two Patriarchs, Lu En and Gu Kun, were coming, I was really surprised.As the patriarch of a wealthy family, they went overseas together without fear of hardships and dangers, just because of their actions can increase a lot of goodwill.

It may have an unexpected effect on them to disclose the overseas closure plan in advance as a benefit.After all, in the original plan, these things were first spread in the form of gossip.Moreover, overseas desolation is deeply ingrained in the minds of the people all over the world, even if they shout out their throats, no one will pay attention to it, and it may even bring about negative effects.

But if we learn from these people who have returned from overseas, then maybe we can make a big difference.

But I can't stand up, because Ben Dapang now represents the Yangzhou Mufu.

"overseas?"

The two looked at the endless vast land in front of them, and gradually fell into thinking.

At this time, it is meaningless to doubt whether Yizhou exists and whether it is real.It's better to think about what you can get from Yizhou, or what you can get from overseas.

Countless thoughts are intertwined in my heart.

"We don't know what the overseas scene is like. If this Yizhou is really the same as Guo Junshi said all the way, it is also a treasure land. It's just that this place is too far away, and I have no taste in Yangzhou."

"It can be reached in a few days. Is Yizhou very far away?"

Guo Dapang asked the two of them.

What is the most difficult thing about developing overseas?Undoubtedly the nautical map and the tools of orientation.Why is it that Yizhou is close at hand, and has never established an effective rule over it, but instead allowed it to develop and a Ryukyu country appeared?Or not for those reasons.

It is an exaggeration to say that without me, Fatty Guo, and without Jia Nian, there would be no map of the modern world.So if you want to open up a channel and find a positioning tool to open up overseas, under the current conditions, it is delusional.

However, with these things, it would be a great waste if they cannot be used overseas.

"not far"

"It's just that the sea is vast, how can you tell the direction, how can you tell when to go out to sea without strong winds and waves"

Gu Kun asked Fatty Guo.

Didn't the aristocratic families in the south of the Yangtze River think about going overseas for hundreds of years?There are many outlets to the sea in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are also many people who live on the sea.But they only dared to fish nearby, but they didn't dare to go to the islands farther away to collect materials.

"Did I encounter strong winds and waves when I was waiting to go to sea? Did the fleet I was waiting lose its way?"

Guo Dapang asked Lu En and Gu Kun.

Gu Kun thought about it seriously, and shook his head at Guo Dapang.

"I didn't lose my way, and I didn't encounter strong winds and waves"

"Dare to ask Junshi Guo, why is this?"

Lu En also looked puzzled.

The corners of Guo Dapang's mouth were slightly raised, and he looked at them with a full face, looking like a master of Taoism.

"There is a way that the sky has the sun and the moon, so it is divided into yin and yang and five elements"

"It seems that there is no change on the surface of the sea, but in fact it is just that you have not grasped the laws of Yin-Yang and Five Elements."

Listening to these big words, Lu En and Gu Kun were in awe.Although these words are equivalent to nonsense, they feel very reasonable.Yin Yang and Five Elements?Could it be that Guo Junshi's apprenticeship is from the Yin Yang family?

Looking at the expressions of the two, Guo Dapang felt very refreshed.So I decided to explain it in normal human terms.

"Some things are easy to say"

"There are huge waves on the sea, but there are also calm times. As long as we find a relatively calm route. Then draw this route on the map, then can we avoid those dangerous places? As for identifying the direction, it is easier up"

"My military master was inspired by watching the sky at night, so he followed the will of the stars and made a compass."

Guo Dapang spoke brazenly, his face was as thick as a city wall.

compass?
Lu En and Gu Kun were taken aback at the same time.

Guo Dapang reached out and took out a compass from his sleeve, and handed it to the two of them to watch.

"This thing is a compass that can point to the south"

"As long as you can tell the direction on the sea, then the things on the chart can play a role, and you can follow the established waterway to avoid the frequent wind and rain seasons, and you can go unimpeded"

"With these two sharp weapons, do you two still think that Yizhou is difficult to rule?"

Doubtful voices sounded in their ears, and Lu En and Gu Kun began to think about it as they looked at Fatty Guo with a proud face.

Zhou Mu has already proved with his actual actions that there is Yizhou overseas, and Guo Junshi also used the two major weapons of nautical charts and compass to prove that it is feasible to open up overseas.So where will he lead the family?And how to get benefits from it, or not to hurt the foundation of the family by this matter.

"If we can improve the performance of the ship, we can shorten the time, which means that the ten-day sea journey may become five days"

"Then distance is no longer an issue."

"Furthermore, our military division has already proposed to the state pastor that after the Yizhou is opened up, an overseas protectorate will be established to manage overseas affairs."

Protectorate?
Lu En and Gu Kun couldn't help but gasped.

Zhou Mu's mind has been fully exposed with the words Duhufu.

He wants to manage overseas the same way he manages the Western Regions, but are the overseas countries really the same as the Western Regions?I don't know, at least before landing on the vast land of Yizhou, all this is still unknown.You can't just rely on Guo Junshi's one-sided words to agree or oppose rashly, because you represent thousands of private soldiers and tens of thousands of people from aristocratic families.
