The July wind blows from the sea to the land, and the Hawaiian high pressure rotates clockwise, throwing the wind to the west coast of the mainland. However, unlike the rainfall brought by the Azores High, the summer on the west coast of North America is dry and rainless.硱

In the entire dry west coast, the warm California Bay Area is so special. The Alaska warm current goes northward from the Golden Bay, all the way to the northwest of the polar region, reaches the Bering Strait, and even meets the Oyashio of the Kamchatka Peninsula.

The California cold current goes south from here to the coast of Central America. And all the way south along the cold current is the footprint of the exploration fleet going north, starting from the original struvite peninsula.

"In mid-March, the kingdom's exploration fleet of more than 1,000 people arrived at the long and narrow peninsula, and came to the southernmost cape. Then, the huge fleet is here for two! Thirty ships of the merchant fleet The catamaran canoe, with three or four hundred people, stayed there to mine the guano stones. The first new village, Nanniaoshi Village, was also established here, with more than 50 people resettled..."

"Afterwards, twelve long ships, carrying more than seven hundred people, circled the southernmost corner of the peninsula and headed for the northern coast..."

The exploration leader Zuvaro raised his head, looked at the waves in the south, and recalled the starting point of exploring the unknown. The name "Nanniaoshi Village" was given by him, which means "the village in the south of the peninsula that produces struvite". And the surrounding Kochimi people are all loose and out of shape. Their largest tribe was only a hundred people, and they directly surrendered to the huge fleet.

"The loose and scarce Kochimi people don't even have decent fields, and most of them rely on hunting and fishing for a living...Because, the places where struvite can be produced, such as good fertilizers, are almost dry sandy land all year round !…Without enough water, no matter how much fertilizer there is, the crops will not survive, and the population will be very small...It’s really interesting!”

Thinking of this record written by Mickey himself, Zuvaro nodded slightly, and seemed to see the arid and desolate peninsula and the mountains of guano stones again.硱

The South Niaoshi Village in the kingdom occupies a precious small lake in the south of the peninsula, and planted drought-tolerant sweet potatoes. Because there are only so many fields that can be planted, the number of immigrants resettled here by the Kingdom is only fifty. They have to farm and fish, collect guano stones, serve the fleets back and forth, and survive for a long time in this remote and desolate land.

In fact, this time the huge fleet of the kingdom went to sea, shouldering two tasks of exploration and colonization at the same time! At least two-thirds of the warriors, sailors, and militiamen will be settled in various settlements along the way. And the entire huge fleet will be separated little by little, staying in various places on the western coast, maintaining the connection between the settlements...

In other words, most of the people participating in the voyage, even the twelve longships, will not return! For His Majesty's prophecy, they will become the first batch of pioneers to colonize the west coast, and take root in the vast northern continent from then on!

"The samurai and sailors on the ship are all unmarried men...Everything is prepared for colonization...May the Lord God bless you!"

Expedition Captain Zuvaro trembled slightly, remembering the prophecies and plans he had read. In the entire fleet, only he and Mickey knew the whole picture of this grand plan.

"Let the entire west coast be connected in one line, even if it's just a weak dotted line..."

"Nanniaoshi Village, which was established in mid-March, was the first settlement. In early April, it took almost a month for the Kingdom's fleet to travel 1,600 miles northward and reach the north of the middle section of the peninsula. Here, We found another freshwater lake and built a second settlement, North Bird Stone Village!"

Zuwaro stroked his chin with a hint of pride on his face. As the captain of the Kingdom Exploration, he also has the right to name the settlements and landmark features along the way. The concise name "Bei Niao Shi Village" was naturally given by him, that is, "the village in the north of the peninsula that produces struvite stones"...

This section of the boat is very difficult, the coast along the way is very desolate, there is hardly any green, and the food stored on the boat is also rapidly depleted. The only consolation is the ever-present hills of guano stones, just piled up on the shore, hinting at the real wealth here!

In North Niaoshi Village, the fleet also left 50 people and their food for half a year. These people want to reclaim sweet potato fields, catch fish and shoot birds, and collect guano stones... Next, the fleet continued northward, and the peaceful Kochimi people along the way gradually turned into wandering desert predators, "S Liren".

At the northern end of the peninsula, a hunting team of Sri people ambushed the moored fleet. However, when dozens of tribal raiders armed with spears and hunting bows rushed out from the hidden dunes, they were shocked to find that in front of them were hundreds of warriors with leather armor, spears, copper axes and large bows. Elite warriors.

"Haha! Poor Sri!"

Thinking of this, the corners of Zuvaro's mouth curled up. The greatest contribution of this group of tribal raiders was to provide a dozen coolies for rowing boats, as well as rumors from the far north.

The fleet continued northward, almost consuming two-thirds of the food on board before leaving the desolate coast where there was little rainfall. Then, everyone's eyes lit up, and they finally saw the green vegetation all over the place and the precious river flowing from the mountains. It was a perfect settlement, which was also called "San Diego~lightnovelpub.net~ in later generations. However, this rare fertile land along the river has long been occupied by the powerful Kumeya tribe!

"It took another month to go north from Beiniaoshi Village, traveling more than 1,500 miles... At the end of April, we arrived at the Ipa tribe of the Kumeya people! This is a large coastal tribe with thousands of tribes, and It is allied with the Salt Lake Tribe that occupies the Salt Lake in the north, and belongs to one of the tribes of Kumeya..."

The exploration captain Zuwaro narrowed his eyes, recalling the first meeting between the two sides. Twelve long ships carrying six hundred warriors and sailors arrived at the coast of the great tribe of Ipa. And more than a thousand Kumeya warriors carried big hunting bows and flint spears on their backs, shouting and pouring out. The fighters of the Ipa Department gathered on the beach, confronted the strange longboat fleet, shouted and demonstrated to each other, almost blood spattered on the spot!

"Lord God bless! At this moment of fighting, it was Mickey who was fearless. He got off the long boat and met the Redstone Chief of the Ipa Tribe, Matutube..."

In the Kumeya language, the meaning of "Matutumbe" is a red rock. And on this coast, you can also see many mountains of red rocks, imprinted with traces of ancient weathering, and also herald the mineral deposits that are unknown at this time.

"Matutumbe... Chief Redstone..."

Thinking of that difficult communication, Zuvaro couldn't help shaking his head. The two sides did not understand the language, but they both had scruples and wanted to avoid a war, so they gesticulated for a long time. In the end, I first found a Kumeya hunter who could speak Sri from the Ipa tribe, and then found a Yaki who could speak Sri from the fleet, and then we communicated smoothly. .

"Huh! No one thought that after a battle that almost broke out, there would be a grand feast of drinking and dancing... Praise the Lord God!"
