Although the East Song side worked very hard to keep the secrets of the New World discovered south of the Southern No Wind Zone.But the intelligence room of the new Zhoudu military superintendent, or in the early 15th of the Republic, learned this amazing news!

“Really?“Have you really found a new continent?”In Xuzhou Yunlongshanzhuang, Wu Haogu looked at Wu Yikuo and Wu Yixin who sent him this news with a little surprise.

Wu Yixin has now also grown into a brother who has given Wu Yiji a little headache - in the past few years, he has been carrying soldiers in the northern grassland.It is the military background of the Queen of the North!Any Queen Xiao's northern army is unevenly thorny, Wu Yixin will send troops to uproot.

After several years of hard work, Wu Yixin finally lifted himself to the status of an army general and a deputy military aircraft.

And on the northern grassland, there is no longer dare to resist the existence of Queen Xiao!

Not long after becoming a deputy military aircraft, a new continent suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Your excellency," said Wu Yixin, nodding, "they must have discovered a new continent, located in the South Ocean, less than 1,000 miles south of the windless belt, and it should be a continent no less than China's!"

The ground has also been confirmed.Because the expedition ship of Song country found that the south of the southern no-wind zone, the farther south the voyage, the lower the temperature ... should be close to the extremely cold place in our north.”

"Adults," Wu Yijiu also said, "it is true to see the people's East Ferry... The mainland they found should be on the east side of the earth, that is, the land of the Yin people's eastward crossing!"It can also be reached from Japan to the east.”

“Oh.”Nod your head, no doubt about it.

Of course he knew that the "round of the earth" had appeared.And by observing the changes in the stars in different regions, the scholars of the new two days of Song also calculated the circumference of the earth.Although the data is not accurate, it is still a remarkable achievement.

After calculating the circumference of the earth, the scholars of Gezi University proposed the "South and South Arctic" theory.However, unlike the division of the two poles of the earth, Chinese geographers now believe that the Arctic is a very cold place, and the Antarctic is a very hot place.

So the equatorial windless belt is regarded as the Antarctic, and the south of the windless belt is regarded as the western hemisphere... Oh, not the Western Hemisphere, but as the "Eastern Hemisphere".

Because in the consciousness of the Chinese people, Japan is east of China and the American continent is east of Japan.If you want to give something to the earth, China is undoubtedly in the west, and the United States is undoubtedly in the east.

The geographers of the Yuntai Academic Palace and Gezi University regard the equatorial windless belt as the Antarctic.So the "Australian mainland" that has just been discovered is naturally in the east of China, which is undoubtedly the legendary land of the East.

It is not known whether this continent is connected to the far north of the Great Zhou.

Because the far north is too cold, it is difficult to explore.

“Do you know the distance?”Wu Haogu asked.

He did not point out the mistakes of the geographers.Not wanting, but not doing.

Because scholars' understanding of the circumference and shape of the earth is based on a large number of mathematical calculations and measurements - because of the large errors in the measurement, the result of the calculation is also a large interval.In this way, their understanding of the earth will inevitably be wrong.

To support their mistakes, Wu Haogu must convince them with more accurate measurement data and calculations.Otherwise, empty words are not a rigorous scientific attitude.

Moreover, errors based on scientific observations and calculations are still great progress for medieval China – not observations and calculations driven by Wu Haogu Kai-kuo’s fingers, but spontaneous research by rationalists and positivist scholars.

This spontaneous, empirical and rational scientific research has become a very common activity in the current New Week and in the East Songs.

"Not far away."Wuyi Channel said, "According to calculations, the west coast of the New World is about 5,000 miles away from the Bohai Islands."Even with a paddle boat can be reached quickly!And we have explored the vast expanse of the Bohai Islands to the east of the Bohai Sea and found a series of islands leading to a huge peninsula.Maybe that peninsula is part of the continent of the Yin people!”

It is the Kamchatka Peninsula, which will be called "Yinzhou" in this time and space.

When can the Navy explore?Wu Haogu asked.

“This summer!”Wuyi Channel, "The Discovery and Enterprise are ready and will soon sail to Kamakura in Japan."After a short rest, immediately set off for Bohai State, in Bohai State for supplies and sail to the "Yindi" to explore.There will also be land soldiers of the real origin of wild women and traitors caught on the Taihang Mountain, and if no bays can be found in the land where they can build a port, they will leave the Marines and traitors there for the winter, so that they can build a castle port for a long time.”

Since the East Song Dynasty found a new continent, the big week can not be behind... so the exploration of the Eastern Ocean, which has been delayed for a while, and now it is finally accelerating!

No more grasp, the new continent will be surnamed Zhao!

The colonization of a competitor is different!

...

Japan, Kanto Plain, Kamakura City.

In the eight prefectures of Kanto, Japan, which is dominated by plain terrain, the Miapo Peninsula, where Kamakura is located, is a rare danger.The entrance connecting the peninsula and the Kanto Plain is only about 20 miles wide, the east side is flatter, and the west is covered with low hills.

Kamakura is located on the west side of the entrance of the Mitsubishi Peninsula, facing the seaside of the Chamiao Bay, a flat land surrounded by low hills.Just hold the surrounding hills and control the bay to ensure that Kamakura is foolproof.

At the same time, Kamakura City is also between the model countries, the country of arms, the country of security, the upper head, the lower general, the Izu (belonging to the Tokai Province).

Through the waterway traffic of Xiangmu Bay and Muxang Bay, the army stationed in Kamakura can quickly reach the above six commanding countries.Most of the plains are in control.Moreover, it can also block the main road of Tokaido to the Kanto Plain through the control of Hakone Mountain in the other country.

The terrain of Kamakura is so important that it is no wonder that the Kamakura shogunate has placed its fundamental place here in history.

In addition, it is necessary to mention that the US Emperor's largest naval base in the Far East, Yokosuka Base, is also on the Merapo Peninsula, just 12 kilometers from Kamakura.

The Yokosuka base in the later generations is now the home port of the Grand Zhou Navy's Eastern Fleet.Known as the "Puhe Military Port", the fortress, dock, warehouse, fort and other buildings are being built as soon as possible.

The Kamakura bunker and Kamakura Port, as well as defense facilities such as the Navy's Kamakura Fort, have now been built and put into use.

Therefore, Wu Yiyong's commander-in-chief moved into Kamakura Fortress last winter.

In a sense, Japan today has also entered the Kamakura era.

It is only the "generals" who rule Japan, not from the origin, but from the Haixi continent.

However, this "general" from a foreign country was here in Kanto, and he was not stubbornly resisted by his father's imagination.Because the Japanese Samurai Group of this era has not really taken shape, nor has it really learned to fight.At best, they are the housekeepers or thugs of the emperor, the ecumenary and the high samurai (semi-god), and are not at all the opponents of the Great Zhou IRA who have been through the war.

And they do not have a very strong sense of state, and their loyalty to the emperor is limited - this is not the time when the emperor was deified, and the so-called samurai at the grassroots level are not cold to the emperor, they are only loyal to any force that can provide the blockade (sanctuary).

Any force, of course, includes “the bravery of General Kamakura.”After more than a year and two years after Wu Yiyong landed in Japan, he has received a large number of loyalties from the Kanto-Hau people.It is also married to the Hao Anxi, Sanpus, and Shangguan clans in Kanto, and married the daughters of the three great ethnic groups as their side room.

At the same time, the forces of Kantoyuan's, Ping's, Fujiwara and the royal family were swept away by Wu Yiyong's army, and also swept away many of the Kanto landlord bullies who rebelled against the liberation of the Great Week.At least half of the land already reclamation in Guanzhou (at this time, the development of the East of Japan was not high, and there were a large number of wasteland) was re-distributed to the IRA generals who followed the Wu Yiyong expedition.

The other half of the land that had been cleared was allocated to the "Progressor Samurai" loyal to Kamakura.

While distributing the land, Wu also vigorously promoted the marriage of IRA generals and the local Hao ethnic group in Kanto, and tried to create a "Sunday-joint" armed group as a pillar of his rule in Japan.

While Pingping Guan eight states and creating an emerging ruling bloc, Wu Yiyong has not forgotten the development of industrial and commercial cities.

To the north of the port of Putaga, east of Kamakura Castle, on the narrow plains of the coast, a city called "Sanpo City" (about the place of later Yokohama) has also begun to take shape.

In other parts of Japan, the conquest of Wu Yiyong has also made no small progress.

The northeastern part of Japan, east of Kanto, is now largely pacified by the military.The city of Pingquan, the city of Fujiwara in Ozhou, was destroyed by the army of Wu Yiyong in the autumn of the Republic in the autumn of the Republic.The master of Fujiwara's family in Ozhou, Lu Oo took over and took over Fujiwara after the surrender of Fujiwara and moved to Haizhou with the whole family, becoming the ancestor of Haizhou Fujian surname.

The Gao regime, which occupied a section of northeastern Japan and Bohai Island, was later surrendered to Kamakura and provided its Bohai iron mount to Wu Yiyong.

If you look at the map, it is not difficult to find that Japan has been from the middle of everything for two.The original idea of Wu Yiyong has been fully realized.

The Zhou-national Japanese, which controlled the Kanto and Tohoku regions, sent legions, and had enough power to support the exploration of the Yinian mainland.

Two large exploration ships, Discovery and Enterprise, sailed at this time.

Another exploration of the new continent is about to begin!
