Because big rivers represent fertile land, abundant water sources, and rich species.

"You can find a suitable place nearby as a temporary camp. Separate a small group of people and continue southward, returning regularly to check the situation. The remaining people set off inland and disperse when they encounter a river to expand the search area."

Zhu Yunwen said slowly and carefully.

Along the way, he has matured even more.

In this strange place, Zhu Yunwen's first priority is safety.

Sun Cheng nodded in agreement: "Those who go south can extend the time starting from half a month's return. Those of us who go inland can advance inland along the river within a five-day journey, so that if there is any danger, we can deal with it calmly.

"

Zhu Yun hummed, and the two of them seemed to have made a plan for the future.

And he turned around silently and looked towards the sea and the sea further west.

"That side should be in the direction of the Central Plains."

Zhu Yunwen spoke softly, without much fluctuation in his tone, as if he was just trying to verify a fact.

Sun Cheng thought for a while, nodded and said: "We went all the way north, crossed the strait, and then turned all the way south. Logically speaking, this direction is the Central Plains."

"so far……"

Zhu Yunwen muttered in a low voice, and then said with some worry: "I don't know if the people sent back to deliver the message have reached Yingtian. I don't know when the imperial court will send more people if they know about it."

The long distance blocked their connection with the Central Plains.

If it weren't for the hope of becoming a hero and the huge temptation of being recorded in history, many people in this team would have given up long ago.

Zhu Yunwen turned his head and looked at Sun Cheng, who was standing side by side with him and looking at the sea.

"Old Sun."

"What's wrong?"

"You think... how will they come? Will they come on our Ming Dynasty's largest warship, or will they come along the path we took?"

"I think they'll come together."

Zhu Yunwen once again looked at the sparkling sea with countless waves and laughed out loud.

"Our journey has not been in vain."

…

Within a month.

On the endless plain, the winding river passed in front of Zhu Yunwen.

Herds of bison just strolled heartily on the grassland.

Birds flew densely across the sky.

A few wisps of smoke rose behind the hillside at the end of the distance.

There were waves of low and subtle sounds in the air.

Like bagpipes, ancient and vicissitudes of life.

"Someone!"

Sun Cheng squatted on the ground and turned to look at Zhu Yunwen, who was also squatting next to him.

His eyes revealed excitement and an indescribable emotion.

Zhu Yunwen's hands tightly grasped the ground under his feet, and the dense weeds were tightly grasped in his hands.

His face was already flushed with excitement.

Like Sun Cheng, Zhu Yunwen's face was full of excitement and excitement.

"Wash your face."

"bath."

"Change clothes."

"Be quick and easy!"

A low but urgent voice came from Zhu Yunwen's mouth.

The officers and soldiers who followed them from the camp established on the seaside and marched into the interior of the new land immediately took action after hearing the news.

Zhu Yunwen slapped his hands heavily on the ground twice.

He and Sun Cheng's plan was correct, and the strategy came true as expected.

There are indeed humans on this land.

The officers and soldiers quickly rushed into the nearby river.

The clear river water changed color and became turbid in the blink of an eye.

Zhu Yunwen and Sun Cheng took off their clothes and walked into the flowing river.

Two Ming army standard daggers were held in their hands.

Every time the blade of the knife slid, large swaths of beard fell into the river and were carried away.

As citizens and soldiers of the most powerful country in the world, they did not allow Ming to appear in embarrassment for the first time in front of these natives.

The text recorded in the history books must also describe that they came to these native people in the form of King Master.

It wasn't until the originally sparse smoke in the distance became denser that Zhu Yunwen and others cleaned themselves up.

Neat and uniform attire, at first glance, they look majestic and inviolable.

All the dirt accumulated on the face due to wind and sun was scraped away with the back of the knife. Because of too much force, the eyes still looked a little red.

"This is the first time our Ming Dynasty has appeared in front of the indigenous people of this land. Master Wang is majestic and benevolent."

"What we do now is determined by the attitude and methods the court will use to govern this land in the future."

"Whether it's a war or what the people want, it all depends on us today."

Zhu Yunwen turned his back to the continuous smoke, facing the 'new faces', and said with a serious expression.

Sun Cheng added on the side: "If the opponent is hostile and takes the lead in attacking, you should remember the drills in the army. Defend first, then form formations, end the battle as quickly as possible, and clear the battlefield."

Kindness is toward goodness.

Zhu Yunwen and Sun Cheng hoped to maintain the royal benevolence of the Ming Dynasty in this new land, but if these native people were unwilling to submit to the Ming Dynasty,

Then war, an ancient skill that the Central Plains people have studied for thousands of years, will be demonstrated in this new land.

The officers and soldiers immediately looked at each other with concentration.

Zhu Yunwen saw that the mentality of the officers and soldiers had adjusted, so he smiled and waved his hands gently towards the place where the smoke was curling up.

"Set off!"
