Three days later, in the early morning, a fisherman from Aomori Fishing Village who was collecting seaweed on the beach saw something he had never seen before in his life.
A group of two hundred people, men, women and children, supported each other and came to the beach. The group of people were all wearing thick, strange-style cotton robes, and everyone actually had shoes to wear.
The leader looked like a warrior, and several others also held swords and were escorting around the crowd.
When the fisherman saw this formation, he didn't know what would happen, so he hid in the bushes by the sea and watched secretly.
At this time, the sea water has begun to rise.
Katsuzaburo took the lead, standing on the beach and looking out, the sea water constantly washing at his feet.
After a while, a white shadow appeared in the distance on the sea, reflecting the dazzling light of the morning sun.
Shiro Ying's approaching speed was very fast, completely faster than other ships Katsuzaburo had seen, and when he looked carefully, he didn't even see the sail.
"Here it comes, your boat is here!" cheers came from the waiting crowd.
As everyone cheered, the ship quickly approached like a shuttle and slowly stopped a few hundred meters away from the shore.
The refugee hiding in the bushes and the crowd on the shore were all shocked when they saw this strange ship.
What kind of ship is this? There are no sails. The deck is more than ten feet high from the water. The hull is more than ten feet long. The bow is like a knife tip, and the white upper part of the hull is like a seabird.
Hovering over the sea.
Amidst the jaw-dropping admiration of the crowd on the shore, after a while, a small boat with a dark gray hull sailed out from the stern of the big ship.
Katsuzaburo saw that the small boat also had no sail, but it was like a roaring galloping horse on the sea, rushing towards the shore.
There was a burst of exclamation from the crowd, which gradually turned into ecstasy.
"That's my lord!"
"The adults are here to pick us up!"
It was Zhao Xin who was on the assault rubber boat. He drove the speedboat to the shore. When everyone was frightened and backed up, the rubber boat rushed directly to the beach before stopping.
Zhao Xin shouted to Shengsaburo: "According to the previous plan, five people at a time. Everyone puts this on first."
As he spoke, Zhao Xin threw several large bags of life jackets from the rubber boat.
According to what he had practiced before, Katsuzaburo immediately called out the first five people, and arranged for people to pick up and tear open several large bags that Zhao Xin had thrown on the beach, take out the life jackets, distribute them to everyone, put them on and wait.
Among the first five people to set off, there were Manzo's wife and children, Shino, and Heita's family. After the six people put on their orange life jackets, they boarded the assault boat. Then Katsusaburo, Toshiyoshi, Manzo, and Torayoshi, etc.
The people came to the rubber boat and worked together to push the boat into the sea water.
As the motor sound sounded again, Zhao Xin changed direction and drove towards the yacht.
Zhao Xin had just left the shore here, and another speedboat on the sea was speeding towards the shore. The person on the boat was Liu Sheng.
With the back and forth operation of the two people, the two rubber boats took the people waiting on the shore to the yacht at a frequency of five people at a time.
Ignoring the jaws of those who boarded the yacht, Shino, who was also surprised, assigned everyone on board the yacht to sit in their respective seats according to the pre-rehearsed instructions.
The two rubber boats went back and forth more than thirty times, and finally got everyone on the yacht.
After tying the rubber boat firmly to the stern, Zhao Xin walked through the center area of the more than 120-square-meter hull to the driver's seat.
At this moment, the guest rooms, restaurants, salons, and reception areas on the ship were densely packed with people. Everyone looked around curiously, but no one dared to get up and move around.
In order to fit more than 100 people at once, Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng used tools to violently dismantle various solid wood tables, chairs, sofas, audio entertainment equipment on the ship in advance, and also removed all the valuable solid wood furniture in the guest rooms.
It was dismantled to reduce the load on the ship.
"Everyone is on board and the rubber boat has been put away. Let's set off."
"This boat can carry so many people at once, so we have to drive slowly." Liu Sheng pressed the switch and put away the anchor.
With the roar of the engine in the cabin, this luxury yacht from three hundred years in the future sailed all the way north.
In the bushes on the shore, the refugee who was quietly observing saw that the big boat had sailed away, so he ran away towards the fishing village, preparing to report to the village chief.
On the map, the straight-line distance from Aomori Port to Bear Island (now Russia Island) is less than 800 kilometers, but the actual driving distance seems to be 810 kilometers.
Zhao Xin's yacht has a top speed of 32 knots and a cruising speed of 29 knots. When converted into kilometers, it is almost 53 kilometers per hour. Even at this speed, it will take 15 hours to drive there.
Now there were two hundred people on this boat, and Liu Sheng didn't dare to cruise. So he crossed the Tsugaru Strait slowly and steadily at a speed of 10 knots; and when the waves on the sea became smaller, he increased it to 15 knots.
Sometimes it even reaches a speed of 20 knots.
The increase in the speed of the boat caused everyone on the boat to scream. Dozens of them could not bear it and soon became seasick.
During this era, in order to strictly prevent the spread of Catholicism in the island country, the Tokugawa shogunate implemented a strict isolation policy and strictly prohibited the islanders from going to sea. The islanders who had fled overseas to avoid the war were also strictly prohibited from returning to the country to settle down.
No way, the "Shimabara Rebellion" in the eleventh year of Kanei scared the Tokugawa family so much that they not only realized the economic threat of foreign trade to the shogunate's rule, but also deeply realized the threat of Catholicism to the shogunate's rule.
Since then, the policy of seclusion has been implemented for more than 200 years.
These people who were staggering due to seasickness were given seasickness medicine by Shino and soon fell asleep. Others were so scared that they sat in the cabin and did not dare to move. When everyone discovered that the boat was moving very fast,
When things are stable, I gradually feel relieved.
In this way, after nearly two days of sailing, the ship entered the outer reaches of the bay of Bear Island.
Bear Island, also known as Lefu Island, "Lefu" is Manchu and means bear in Chinese. Historically, the island originally belonged to China. In 1860, after the Qing Dynasty signed the "Beijing Treaty", it was illegally occupied by Tsarist Russia
.
Originally, according to the provisions of the treaty, Bear Island was a "fishing and hunting land for flag people" and was not within the scope of cession under the Beijing Treaty. However, Tsarist Russia's occupation of the island was illegal, and the Qing government was unable to resist Tsarist Russia, which ultimately resulted in the de facto
cede.
The sound of the engine gradually became lower. The sky was still very dark at this time and the sun had not yet risen.
After discussing with Liu Sheng, Zhao Xin decided to carry out the plan to land on the island after dawn.
The two first took out the pre-installed wireless base station from a locked cabin. Zhao Xin and Sheng Saburo, who came to help, held it up together and handed it to Liu Sheng, who climbed onto the roof of the ship. Liu Sheng lowered the wireless base station.
The connecting rod was inserted into the pre-installed iron frame and fixed with a latch. Zhao Xin connected the power supply of the wireless base station, then took out a laptop, connected it via Bluetooth, and opened the software for debugging.
Katsusaburo had gradually become immune to the fact that his lord would occasionally take out a magical item that he had never seen before. Although he had no idea what these items were for, he still stood quietly beside Zhao Xin and watched.
By the time the wireless base station was debugged, the sky had turned white. When the sun gradually rose halfway from the sea level, everyone on the boat could already clearly see the Bear Island not far away.
At this time, the jungle on Bear Island was dense, with a large number of forest shrubs mixed with larch, birch, metasequoia, etc., which were very densely distributed.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Zhao Xin took out the installed drone from the cabin on the ship. After matching the signals of the drone and the wireless base station, under Liu Sheng's operation, the drone flew from the roof of the yacht.
It rose quickly, and when it reached an altitude of 500 meters, it flew horizontally over Bear Island at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour.
"Let me go, this drone you bought is really good. Well, the picture is clear." Liu Sheng looked at the display screen on the drone ground station and controlled the flight of the drone through the gimbal.
"How new, 450,000 yuan per machine, industry-level application." Zhao Xin also stared at the screen and replied without raising his head.
Liu Sheng's hand trembled: "What? 45, ten thousand more?"
"Hey, you should take it easy. If it breaks, I'll be heartbroken. I only bought five sets in total." Zhao Xin looked at the picture on the screen and quickly reminded him.
"I'll go, you bought so much and prepared to eat it. Honey. This is better than what I used in the army."
"Be prepared. You think this is a child's toy. Besides, it has been many years since you were a soldier. Can it be the same?"
"Yeah, that's right. Let me do the math. Haha, there are still more than two hundred years before I become a soldier."
"I'll go!" Liu Sheng suddenly noticed something on the screen. He hovered the drone and fine-tuned the camera position. "This is such a bear!"
"Let me take a look." Zhao Xin, who was observing the coast with a telescope, came over.
Liu Sheng pointed at the display screen: "Did you see it?"
Zhao Xin looked at it for a while and felt that he couldn't see clearly, so he pressed a few times on the LCD screen and switched the lens to infrared mode. Now he could see clearly.
In the picture, two bears, two large and two small, are walking slowly in the forest.
"Winter is coming soon, and these bears will start hibernating soon," Liu Sheng said.
"Well, maybe we also have bear paws to eat. Bear paws are the fattest at this time." Zhao Xinba chirped.
"You're a foodie."
Katsusaburo and Rikichi, who were watching from the side, pointed at the four bears on the screen and asked tremblingly: "Sir, are these bears?"
Zhao Xin turned to Shengsaburo and said: "I'm telling you, before you go ashore, inform everyone not to run around at will. This kind of black bear can smell people within one mile and can hear people within three hundred steps.
There is no sound of footsteps. Especially at night, you must not leave the camp and walk around."
Katsusaburo and Liji hurriedly said yes, and then immediately turned around and went down to the cabin to explain to everyone.
Zhao Xin turned around and said to Liu Sheng: "Keep flying, take a closer look at the situation of the entire island, and then we will choose the location of the landing and camp. You must fly to the west and north shores to see if there is any trace of the ship.
"
"Is there still a boat coming here now?" Liu Sheng asked strangely.
"Why not? Let me tell you, this place is called Lefu Island by the Manchus. 'Lefu' in Manchu means bear! Maybe some Hezhe people living in the north will come here before winter.
Bear hunting. Bear fur is the best at this time, bear paws are thick, and bear bile can be used as medicine. These are all good things that can be exchanged for money.
Moreover, these Hezhe people are what we called them in that era. In this era, they were all called Yuskin Tatars, which means they are born with virgins. They are very fierce and fierce. If we are not careful, we will be destroyed by others."
"Damn! I don't believe they are really that powerful. Let's have a chance to compete and see who is faster, bullets or bows and arrows." Liu Sheng said disdainfully.
