Aztec Eternals

In front of the shipbuilding department, the craftsmen are busy, the long ship lies like a giant crocodile, and the materials are piled up like a hill. The second-level priest Zuvalo stared at the long scroll unfolded in front of his eyes with wide eyes, and asked in surprise.

"Lord God! Is this the divinely inspired route? To the big island that His Majesty prophesied, 30,000 miles away from the West Sea?"

"Exactly! The red line drawn on this chart is the route drawn by His Majesty himself. The specific description is all in His Majesty's will!"

The knowledgeable Mickey nodded, and pulled out a roll of thick and waterproof cotton cloth from the unfolded long roll. He unfolded the cotton cloth, and His Majesty's fine handwriting came into their eyes.

". Lord God bless! Explorers of the Kingdom! The northern sea route is windy and rough, and the waves are dangerous. The Kingdom's exploration fleet must sail along the coast and island chains to the west this time, and must not go deep into the ocean! And the fleet The reference for positioning relies on the stargazing method taught by Shinway University to measure the definite latitude."

"The whole voyage exploration plan, first of all, is to explore the geography, hydrology and tribes of various places along the west coast of the northern continent. Then it is to make good trade with the local tribes, set up small coastal settlements, save food and grass, and continue to extend northward. Until After sufficient preparations are completed and the long island chain to the west is found, it will be the last and most difficult long distance across the sea.”

"So, this voyage exploration will last for many years! As the proverb of Prepeca says, you will never be able to catch the birds on the tree by just jumping once. Your exploration will be segmented Advance north! According to latitude, the entire exploration voyage will be divided into at least six sections."

Seeing this, the two god-inspired priests from Prepecha looked at each other, thinking a little.

"Mickey, the wise man, why haven't I heard the proverbs spoken by His Majesty?"

"Well, this proverb! Your Majesty is the king of our Preepecha, and what he said is naturally our proverb!"

"Huh? This"

"Don't talk too much, let's take a closer look at this chart!"

Speaking of which, Mickey the Knowledgeable folded the cotton cloth and placed it beside the chart. The two of them looked at the chart one by one to check the will.

"The first voyage is the northern continent that the Kingdom has already explored. From the mouth of the Talsas River, Trout Town goes northward, and travels three to four thousand miles along the coast to arrive at the Yome tribe, which is rich in coal, gold, and copper. The latitude of this section is very clear, from 18 degrees north latitude to 28 degrees north latitude."

"During this voyage, the two midway supply points that the kingdom focuses on are the Torpan tribe at the mouth of the Torpan River, and the Jorem tribe that produces gold and copper. The distance between the two tribes is more than a thousand miles , is a more suitable supply distance. The kingdom has already stationed manpower in two places, and has set up small strongholds and outposts. Next, the kingdom will continue to send merchant fleets northward to expand the size and population of these two supply points , win over and assimilate the local tribes!"

The second-level priest Zuvalo stretched out his hand, pointing at this section of the clear sea chart. He has personally traveled the four thousand miles of waves, and he also left behind the kingdom's outpost at the mouth of the Torpan River. He formed an alliance with the chief of the Thorpan tribe, and proposed to His Majesty to assimilate the local Hueljo people. Now, seeing his suggestion being adopted by His Majesty, Zuvaro's heart is full of excitement and excitement!

"The second part of the voyage, bypassing the peninsula in the west of the bay, and continuing north along the coast from the southernmost point of the peninsula at about 23 degrees north latitude, all the way north, to 40 degrees north latitude. In the last 5 latitudes of this voyage , you should be able to find a very good lagoon bay. The climate in the bay area is very warm, and there are mountains in the north to block the cold wave, so you don’t have to worry about sudden drops in temperature and snowstorms. Similarly, this warm bay area also has very fertile land. Suitable for reclamation as farmland!."

Seeing such a clear prophecy, the knowledgeable Mickey showed excitement and anticipation in his eyes.

"Excellent lagoon port, warm and suitable climate, fertile and riverside land Zuvalo, this must be an excellent settlement!"

"Ha! Witnessed by the Lord God! If the environment around the bay is really so suitable for settlement, then there must be many local tribes here!"

The second-level priest Zuvalo raised his eyebrows, but he was not so optimistic. According to the records of the Kingdom's navigation, the straight-line distance of one latitude is about 200-240 miles. The 17 latitudes of this second voyage are at least 3000 miles! And in the second half of the five latitudes, more than a thousand miles away, look for the warm bay predicted by His Majesty

"Hey! The Lord God blesses you! It would be great if His Majesty's prophecy of finding a warm bay and establishing settlements in such a wide area can be more accurate!"

"Zuvalo! The kingdom's settlements don't need much land at first, as long as they can support one or two hundred people. And if there are many local tribes, it is a good thing. We can use the kingdom's gems, cloth, Bronze wares in exchange for the rich food in their hands!"

Mickey the Knowledgeable reached out and fumbled for His Majesty's crooked map of the coast. While thinking seriously, he continued to look down.

"...Oh, yes, I remembered! There should be a lot of gold deposits in this warm bay. There should be a gold mountain there! You need to set up a kingdom settlement here and settle a group of gold mines. Warriors and militiamen, win over the surrounding tribes. In the first half of the voyage to find the warm bay, if there is a suitable place, it is best to build at least one settlement. The most important tasks of these settlements are to cultivate and plant, store food, and Trade with the surrounding tribes, store food. Store enough food! Remember, the most important thing for the fleet to explore along the coast is food!"

The second-level priest Zuvalo saw this and was deeply impressed. The northern continent is generally desolate, the tribes have a small population, and there is little food for the wealthy. It is not so easy to replenish food. The establishment of kingdom settlements, farming and food storage is the basis for further voyages.

"For the third voyage, you will continue to go north along the coast, from 40 degrees north latitude to 50 degrees north latitude, that is, 2000-3000 miles north. If I remember correctly, in the second half of this voyage, It may also be the first half, or the second half! In the second half of 1000 miles, there will also be an exceptionally good bay, and it will be the last warm and humid non-freezing port before you continue to go north! And it is in the local area Tribal name, maybe 'Seattle'? Or 'Sias'?"

After reading this, the second-level priest Zuwaro put his hand on his forehead, feeling a little headache. It is necessary to find a warm bay in the coast of more than a thousand miles. The accuracy of the divine chart is too ups and downs! And according to His Majesty's previous description, one must be set up in this warm bay port.

"Lord God bless! No matter what the name is, this is a port with a warm climate! It is also the last settlement that you can plant as you continue north. Therefore, the Kingdom needs to set up a village for reclamation here, Plant corn and cold-resistant potatoes! There must be tribes in the local area, but they don’t have too much food in reserve. Perhaps, the tribes and settlements on the second voyage can provide more food!.”

"During the third section of the voyage, you'd better set up two or more supply settlements to store food. But for the settlements in this section, you must consider the issue of cold protection! You must build low and strong wooden houses, and you must Learn from the local tribes. When autumn comes, you need to stockpile enough firewood and food. By the way, the Yuemei tribe in the first voyage is rich in a large amount of high-quality bituminous coal. You can trade and mine more, and transport them to the settlements in the north. as fuel for the winter"

"Praise the Lord God, praise Your Majesty! May He give us the strength to move forward unremittingly!"

The knowledgeable Mickey prayed in a low voice, letting the brilliance of faith bring him courage. Adding these three voyages together, it is already a long journey of nearly ten thousand miles. And judging from the meaning in His Majesty's letter, this is only half, even a relatively easy half of the voyage

"Lord God bless! From the fourth leg of the voyage, the coast will definitely turn to the northwest! If you continue to sail along the coast, you will encounter terrible low temperatures, snowstorms, cold waves, big waves... and coastal freezes that have begun to appear and are getting longer !"

"In my opinion, to go further back, the number of people on each ship must be reduced, and more food and fuel stored. This is a voyage of discovery dedicated to God, and it is also a true test of the glory of the warriors of the kingdom. But ! The lord god's light envelopes you, and protects you to go westward and reach a brand new shore, a more prosperous new continent!"
