Chapter 886 Perfect
Last Updated:
2024-08-03 14:45:34The calendar used by the Zhenla people is relatively close to the solar calendar used by the Ming Dynasty. After entering November (the tenth month of the lunar calendar), the climate enters the cool season; this is the season with the lowest temperature subdivided from the dry season.
Even the Zhenla people, who are accustomed to the hot and rainy climate, like the cool season.
During this short period of three or four months, the temperature is mild and pleasant, neither too hot nor too cold, and the rainfall is relatively minimal. Although it often rains at this time, the rain is usually very short, the ground is wet and then evaporates quickly, and the roads are not muddy.
However, the Ming army did not arrive at the beginning of the cool season. When the Ming army approached Saigon, it was already the end of November (the tenth month of the lunar calendar), wasting almost a month of good days. The Zhenla people and the Manchus speculated that it might b

The Ming fleet in the bay remained motionless. There were no sails on the bare masts, and it was lifeless . Countless huge ships were arranged in a relatively neat matrix, swaying gently in the waves. This scene looked like a huge tomb, and the magnificent water ruins were abandoned here.The Zhenla people found it very strange. The warship in front was gradually approaching the Ming army, and people could even see the copper deck cannon on the bow of the Ming army ship.Suddenly, the northeast wind blew in the face, and the sound of a zither string drifted in. Things became even stranger. Shouldn't the Ming army be panicking at this moment?More than one Zhenla general had sensed that something was not right.But the Ming army's giant ship was already in sight, so the Zhenla people took no practical action for a while. Even if they want to turn around immediately, the sailing ship cannot do it immediately. Countless ships are still drifting forward wi

The slow rhythm of drums beating in the sea breeze never stopped. The drumbeats were like the beating of the heart in the body. People could feel them everywhere, as if they were everywhere. That was the effect of the Ming army's multiple warships beating drums at the same time.The Zhenla general had already discovered the arrogance of the Ming army. The Ming army broke into the coalition's formation in two columns connected head to tail; such a long and thin column was very easy to be boarded and besieged by several warships of the coalition. But the Ming army seemed to be unconcerned.The sound of artillery fire in the distance mixed with the sound of the waves, forming a continuous and loud noise.The admiral's ship had already turned southwest, and he stood on the deck, watching the gradual changes in the situation coldly. He didn't have much to do at this time. The pace of naval warfare was relatively slow, but tactical arrangements and preparations we

The waters in the bay were very wide. The depth of the coalition army and the warships in the rear had turned southwest and retreated towards the exit of Saigon Bay.The Ming army's treasure ships and warships formed two columns, shuttling through the enemy's formation; the two armies maintained the same course, with little difference in speed. Two long dragons of white smoke clearly distinguished the Ming army's fleet.The sound of cannons on the water almost never stopped, and warships near and far were firing cannons one after another. The clear sea and sky seemed to be shrouded in thunder. The wind was mixed with the noise of drums and trumpets and the bustling voices of people.Most of the coalition warships were trying to avoid the Ming army's attacks; therefore, the Ming army was actively approaching the place where the bombardment occurred. Therefore, the Ming warships mostly chose to fire from the port side, which was roughly upwind of the enemy shi

In the early morning of the 28th, the dark grey sky was already beginning to lighten. The Qianjiang River was covered with fog and there was no wind.Several small boats were lined up with glazed lanterns on their masts, flickering orange and yellow lights in the mist, looking like will-o'-the-wisp fires from afar. The wooden oars paddled in the water, making a crisp sound.These small boats in front are leading the way because the vision is still unclear.Behind the boat, a ball of light shone in the air. Where the light was, a huge black shadow slowly swam forward through the fog. Its mountain-like size was daunting, like a dark monster, giving people a suffocating pressure at first glance. This was the outline of a treasure ship.The noise from the rear was also louder, and the ends of the long oars on both sides of the ship moved like propellers. Many soldiers were in the cabin, rowing hard.There were several more treasure ships, plus variou

There was a sandy mud flatland nearly 200 steps wide on the river bank. An En walked around the flatland himself. Sometimes his calves would sink into the mud. He had to use all his strength to pull his legs out of the sand and mud. If people walked on this flatland, it would obviously be very difficult and slow.This will surely be the burial place of the Ming army.An En had deployed a large number of archers to the front, close to the river beach. Once the Ming army landed by boat and got stuck on the beach, the archers led by An En would continue to shoot arrows, mercilessly shooting at the enemy troops who were as slow as lambs to be slaughtered.After the sun rose, the fog dissipated faster and the vision became clearer. An En clearly saw that many Ming soldiers on the other side were gathering on the flat-bottomed boats. He was a little excited and looked forward to it.As for the other Ming army fleet in the north, An En didn't want to bother w

The terrain here is flat, with occasional gentle slopes. However, there are many water networks, and there are also a lot of rice fields and shrubs nearby. For the army, the terrain is not conducive to large-scale marches.The Ming army's columns came one after another from a path between rice fields, and stopped advancing less than 200 steps away from the enemy's formation. The general ordered each team to form a square formation in horizontal rows. The soldiers kept lining up and gradually formed a flat square formation. Only when the horizontal surface was wide enough would they not be outflanked by the enemy's infantry.Flags fluttered among the teams, most of which had their numbers in Chinese characters. After a while, a blue flag with a yellow pattern of a sun, moon and a dragon moved over.Then a middle-aged general with a serious face and a lean figure walked to the front of the army with his hand on the hilt of his sword. The generals in the queue

In the east, sporadic battles were taking place in various places by the Ming army's pursuit of the enemy to the north; but in the Mekong River basin in the west, the situation was quite different.It had just rained on the vast green plains, but it soon stopped. The air was very fresh and clear, and the wind brought a pleasant breeze. On both sides of the Mekong River, the pastoral scenery was peaceful and primitive.The only thing that was out of place here was the large warship with huge hard sails on the river. It was obviously not something that belonged here, but an uninvited guest.Occasionally, farmers wearing straw hats were seen standing on the distant river bank, watching. A child riding on a buffalo, holding a branch in his hand and facing the river, must have been very curious.Many warships are sailing down the Mekong River, and judging from the direction of the current, the estuary is just ahead. They are heading back to the sea.H

When the victory news from the southern ocean reached the capital of the Ming Dynasty, it was already the beginning of the fifth year of Wude.This was considered extremely fast, thanks to the complete post road from Songtaiwei in Annan to the capital. The post stations and official shops along the way provided fast horses for the messengers, so that the news could be delivered to the capital so quickly.Zhu Gaoxu was naturally very happy to receive such news at the beginning of the year. He immediately asked the six departments to copy the memorial and inform the various government offices of the court. He also ordered the Jinyiwei to go to the city and post the copy of the victory report on the city gates to boost people's morale.Since the implementation of the new policy, many hidden dangers have emerged, but it can still be maintained for the time being.However, within the civil service, the power to collect commercial taxes in various places was

The sky gradually darkened and the lights came on. Gao Xu held Miao Jin's hand and followed the crowd into the concert hall.People were all dressed up, especially women, who were all dressed up. Some wore traditional clothes such as ruqun or aoqun, while others were dressed in modern fashion. Each figure seemed to be wandering between the classical and the modern.Among them there are many foreigners, probably all of whom came to Taicang to attend international conferences.In terms of fun, people might prefer to watch a movie rather than enjoy such pure music. However, there were still many listeners tonight, and the auditorium gradually filled up.Perhaps some of them value the rarity of concerts and do not attend them often, while others simply value their style.Gao Xu's main happiness comes from Miao Jin's company. Imagine if he came alone or with someone unrelated, his feelings would be much worse. He is willing to be with Miao Jin and exp

There were long commercials playing on TV, but no one changed the channel.Miao Jin was doing chores and preparing ingredients for lunch. Gao Xu began to check his various instruments, which were all measuring tools he had collected a while ago.There is a ray detector, which, according to the manual, can detect radiation, including ultraviolet light, laser and other electromagnetic waves. There is a torsion balance experimental device, which can measure the gravitational constant. And an air measuring instrument.There were also some uncommon small devices. In short, except for the large instruments that were difficult to carry, he tried his best to buy all the instruments that could test general constants.Miao Jin would occasionally look over here curiously, but before she asked, she might have guessed what Gao Xu was going to do.Gao Xu would tell her clearly as long as she asked. Because when he was going to look for the cave in Huangshan, h

Gao Xu usually doesn't like watching TV. But today, when Miao Jin was watching TV in the living room, he was gradually attracted by the TV program, so he stopped what he was doing and sat next to Miao Jin.There was a studio on the TV screen, with two hosts, a man and a woman, talking about the animation "Zootopia" like a crosstalk. It was neither news nor entertainment, but a show that mocked reality.Miao Jin saw Gao Xu sitting over and said, "This TV station should be more inclined to the left-wing viewpoint."Gao Xu asked, "Why haven't I heard of the distinction between left and right wings?"Miao Jin said, "It is originally an imported product. That is how foreigners describe Ming Dynasty politics. There is no clear distinction between left and right in China. So we generally don't use such words. It is normal that we don't hear them normally."She glanced at Gao Xu and continued, "This classification first appeared in the parliament during

Gao Xu's drama project has less than half the investment of the animation project, with a total investment of about 40 million yen for 15 episodes; the profit expectations are also completely incomparable to those of animated films. As Wang Siqi and most people believe, the fastest way to make money is still the movie box office.But Gao Xu has invested more energy in costume dramas.The crew built a filming site in the Western Regions. From 509 to the first half of 510, a production period of less than a year, Gao Xu flew twice to personally observe the filming site. His subordinate Sun Jing also stayed in the Western Regions for a long time, passing various information back to Taicang.A large media company in Taicang has signed an exclusive premiere agreement with Dream Incubation Studio.The terms are a bit complicated, but the key is to adopt a cooperation model with floating copyright fees. When the series is almost finished, a pay TV station und

The glass window on the outer wall is located in the east direction, so the sunlight cannot enter the studio in the afternoon. Therefore, Gao Xu often has a slight illusion that it seems to be later than the actual time.At this moment, the phone in his coat pocket rang. Gao Xu's phone rarely received calls because he had set the Do Not Disturb function, so no calls could be received from numbers that were not saved. He took it out and saw that it was a person who he did not contact often but had saved the number a long time ago, Sun Jing.Gao Xu stood up from his desk, walked to the corner by the glass window, glanced at Wang Cheng not far away, and answered the phone.Sun Jing's voice asked, "Are you still busy with work?"Gao Xu said, "Yes, I am working on two projects at the same time, so I am a little busy. How is Mr. Sun doing recently?"Sun Jing, "Very boring. I don't have to go to work, but I've been idle for so long that I feel like I'm
Game of the Throne Chapter 1062 Chicken with Rice
This was the second time Gao Xu and Xiao Yu had a meal together. Last time they were at the company cafeteria, and today they were at a roadside fast food restaurant.After finishing work at the agency, Gao Xu drove off the main road and found a parking space. Then he randomly found a restaurant where he could eat and walked in with Xiao Yu.It was very lively inside, with all kinds of customers, including well-dressed office workers and some homely citizens, men, women, young and old, making a big noise in the room, mixed with the loud shouts of the shop assistants passing on information. Although the air conditioner was on, the shop was open and there were many people, so it was still very hot inside.There were several dishes to choose from, all of which were simple and convenient. Gao Xu and Xiao Yu gave up on the braised pork intestines with radish, and roast duck was too greasy, so they chose roast chicken.The roasted chicken skin was cut into p

After many twists and turns, Gao Xu finally contacted the director named Ma Xuan.Ma Xuan has an account on the Internet where he posts some career news. Gao Xu's assistant Yu Ni left messages and sent messages, but it took several days for her to get a response. Gao Xu came to the hall and looked through the information records on Yu Ni's computer."He doesn't seem very proactive." Yu Ni said.Gao Xu said , "You claim to be the assistant of the investor of "Dream Seekers", but he may not believe you. If our studio also has such a certified account, it may save some trouble."At this time, Shidai Heng walked by and greeted him, "Mr. Liu."Gao Xu nodded and said, "We are trying to contact Ma Xuan, the director you recommended."Dai Heng came over and said, "He should have received a lot of similar messages. And there is indeed some false information on the Internet. For the purpose of advertising, people may lie about their identities, which

The people who work here, including Dai Heng who has only been here a few days, seem to have gotten used to the environment.The studio was in good condition. The morning sun shone in through the French windows, and the room was clean and tidy. In addition to the solid wood desk and bookshelf, and a full range of domestic electrical appliances (Made in China products are more expensive), there were also comfortable leather chairs.Gao Xu was in Xiao Deng's office at the moment, sitting on one of the leather chairs, holding a tablet and reading the text he had just copied from Xiao Deng's computer. Of course, he couldn't help but listen to the sound of her keyboard at the same time.He put down the tablet, picked up the cup next to him, and found it was empty. So he stood up and walked to the water dispenser, filled up half a cup of hot water, then took a tea bag and put it in the cup to soak for more than ten seconds, then took it out and put it next to him.

The next screenwriter who came to the studio for an interview was named Dai Heng, who should be a relatively unknown person.Gao Xu looked out from the glass wall and when he saw Dai Heng, he immediately guessed that this person was probably not married yet. Dai Heng was wearing a brand new suit, a white shirt with a small cross collar, and a pair of casual leather shoes that didn't match. The most unpleasant thing about Dai Heng was his long hair, but unlike the image of Ekin Cheng, Gao Xu felt at first glance that Dai Heng was not suitable for that hairstyle. Some hairstyles look good, but they are picky about the face.But these are not problems. Now that the people have arrived, Gao Xu needs to get to know them a little bit.Gao Xu pressed the phone on the desk, "Xiao Yu, ask him to come to the office to meet.""Okay." Xiao Yu said into the phone outside, his voice coming from the desk inside.Dai Heng came in from the door with a bag on his
