"Mr. Head, you are an old man in the naval army. I heard that you participated in the Three Kingdoms Naval Battle. Is the naval army of the Jinhe Empire really that powerful?" Liu Juntou was about forty years old, and the sailors on the same boat with him were only in his early twenties. When the Jinhe Empire was in a naval battle with the Mongol Empire in the Song Dynasty, they were still children running by the river. I have heard of it and have you seen it.

"It's not just amazing... I still remember that the giant ship that Emperor Hong was riding in was as high as a hill, and its boat boards were as thick as the city walls of Mingzhou. I heard that they were made of iron plows from the South China Sea. No matter how big the shells were, they could not be shot, and they would all bounce. Do you think they were powerful and powerful? "Brave is everyone's nature. According to his age, this Liu Juntou may have caught up with the Naval Battle of the Three Kingdoms, but the details he said were too unreliable. The boat boards were as thick as the city walls, and they were still made of iron plows. That would not be a submarine, and it would sink directly to the bottom.

"What's even more powerful is not his ship, but his people! This emperor is not an ordinary person. I heard that he is the illegitimate son of the Dragon King of the South China Sea and the princess of the small country of Nanyang. As long as he is on the sea, he will come with wind and see as far as he wants. No matter day and night, there will be shrimp soldiers and crabs at the bottom of his ship. Even if you knock his ship into a sieve eye, you can still be safe and sound. You are young and may not know what happened back then. It was more than ten years ago. At that time, the court organized a merchant fleet to go to Kalamba Port to compete for commercial routes with the Strait Company at that time. As a result, as soon as he left the west entrance of the Strait of Malacca, he was blown away by a demonic wind. For two or three days, who

I don’t know where it was blown. What’s even more deadly is that there is no wind in the sea and no waves. There are dozens of large ships in the entire fleet, and thousands of people have no way to go to the sky and no way to the ground. They are thirsty and starved to death! At this time, auspicious clouds suddenly appeared in the distance. A large ship sailed over. It didn’t use the wind to push it. The sea water automatically gave way to him, and then he barely rescued six ships. This big ship was the Emperor Hong. He told those on the ship who saved his life at that time that this sea area can come, but he had to say hello to him in advance, otherwise the things in the sea would not recognize people, and any ship that did not hang his flag would not come out! Are you evil?”

Liu Juntou became more and more addicted to it the more he said. He had heard a lot of things. He even knew about Hong Tao's rescue of people and boats in Wufeng's belt more than ten years ago. However, the words he said were very different from the facts. It was a story that was true. It was probably not his own, but the rumors among the people, which became distorted as they spread. But these young sailors did not have the ability to distinguish and looked back into the sea one by one, for fear that something would come up and drag themselves down.

"Military head, you are bragging again. There are no such big ships. We haven't seen the warships of Jinhe Kingdom. They come a few times a year. I see that they are not as big as our warships. Moreover, Emperor Hong has long stopped being the emperor and left the throne to his son. I used to serve the officers from the Royal Navy in the navy. I heard that Emperor Hong had already sailed to sea on a ship and had not seen anyone for many years. Maybe the ship had already sunk and died." The Navy in the Song Dynasty was not all confused. In recent years, the navy in the Song Dynasty and the Jinhe Empire had also had a lot of exchanges, and the sailors had heard and seen them. He immediately spoke to expose the cowhide of Liu Junhead.

"You know what the hell is! Do you think the emperor's ship is flying out casually? The Mongols were the same as you thought back then, but what happened? More than 600 warships were left, and less than 20% were left when they arrived here from Dengzhou. The rest were sunk by Emperor Hong and more than a dozen warships. Our navy defeated the Mongolian navy, but in fact they were all fighting the remaining remaining soldiers and defeated generals. Many of them had no intention of escaping. Do you think that

How did hundreds of Mongolian warships sink? Did they also encounter the tide god on the sea? Does that mean the sea god understand? The ship sinks and people die. If those who were rescued by Emperor Hong hear it, you kid don’t want to get stuck in the navy. Do you know how many ships in the navy have the golden rat flag on their own. If you go to sea and don’t worship Emperor Hong, it’s equivalent to not hanging a sail. Roll the mast for me. If you don’t like to listen, don’t listen, what are you talking about!”

When bragging, you are annoyed and serious people to be serious. Didn’t the ancients say that they are awesome? You are not allowed to argue! Exposing others’ cowhides is regarded as killing parents, which is very hateful. Especially when the bragging person is your immediate boss, don’t talk casually. Now, the reward in this life has come, and the sailor who thinks he is smart will be sent to the mast as a watchman. After this round, the sea breeze can drink half full.

"Yes, yes, yes, don't be angry with him. Look, I'm bringing you wine here. I just got it from Mingzhou Port the day before yesterday, authentic Jinhe Country rum. Today the sea is a little cold, so you can warm your body and tell us about it." There are two fools, some who know how to be human, and immediately a sailor took out a porcelain bottle from under the deck.

"This is a smuggling crime. You are not allowed to drink alcohol when you are on duty. Aren't you afraid that Zhao Du's head will whip it!" Liu Jun took the porcelain bottle and took the light on the mast and took a look. It was not bad. It was Nanyang goods sold from Guangzhou. Of course, there was no good wine. These were smuggled wines from some small countries in Nanyang. The quality was not as good as the genuine wines contained in glass bottles by the Jinhe Empire. However, in the Song Dynasty, where the wine control was very strict, it was not easy to drink such imported foreign wines. As for how they appeared in Mingzhou Port and had not been sealed by the court, we had to ask the officials in the court. If it weren't for someone in their family who specialized in making these wines, who would dare to do such a house-raided business, and even if you dare to do it, you wouldn't be able to do it.

"Isn't you still the military leader? Zhao Du Head can't take care of our brothers. You are our Shangguan." The sailor is very good at speaking.

"Okay, I can't understand people and things like him. Since my brothers look down on me, I can't enjoy it alone. Go and bring a bowl, let's warm you up together." Liu Juntou was very helpful by the sailor's words, and he stopped pretending now. It was particularly cold tonight. The breeze blew to his body and it was time to drink a few sips.

"Damn it, you can drink it. I was so immersed in the sea and fed the tide god!" Seeing that my companions were drinking and chatting on the deck, I stood on the top of the mast and drank the wind. The sailor who was designated as the watchman by Liu Juntou was very dissatisfied, but he did not dare to leave his post without hesitation, so he could only curse in a low voice.

Qiantang River and sea tides are available every month, once in the beginning of the month and once in the middle of the month. This is formed by the sea water being gravityed by the moon and the sun, which is the same as other tides on the seaside. However, due to the special terrain of Hangzhou Bay, the tides are amplified, the unique sea water flow phenomenon of Qiantang River will appear. However, the sea tides are relatively small, and the tide is the largest on the morning of August 18th. Because on this day, the earth, the moon and the sun almost form a straight line, and the earth is subjected to the strongest gravity.

Tides are two words. Tides are the rise and fall of sea water during the day, and Tides refer to the evening. On August 18th, the arrival of Tides is the ugly moment, that is, at around 1:00 a.m. At around 8:00 a.m., it is the tide and the best time to watch the tide.

Hong Tao's expeditionary fleet left Seizu Island on August 14, avoiding the known commercial routes, heading north, first to the waters on the west side of Jeju Island, and then turned west to make up for Hangzhou Bay. At around 9 p.m. on the 17th, he passed through the Si Islands on time and entered Hangzhou Bay.

"Come on, Captain Wu, now the command of the fleet is handed over to you. Whether we can reach Lin'an City depends on your ability." When we arrived at Hangzhou Bay, Hong Tao immediately handed over the navigation power to Wu Yong. He was a god on the sea, but when he arrived in the inland river, he was a blind god. Although he had entered the Qiantang River, he really didn't dare to lead the navigation when he was in such a dark and lantern. Maybe he would lead the fleet to rush to the shore. Don't wait for the Song Dynasty Navy to fight. They all had to be stranded and no one could escape.

"Don't worry, your Majesty, the villain has guaranteed his life, and he will never make any mistakes... Otherwise, I will change a ship to lead the navigation ahead, and your Majesty will send a vanguard fleet to follow me first?" Wu Yong was very confident in completing the task. His family has lived by the river for several generations and has never heard of the Qiantang River diverted or something. But to be on the safe side, he still suggested that Hong Tao not use flagships to lead the navigation.

"Well, you can guide the navigation with peace of mind. We are just a one-time deal. If I hurried behind, who would dare to rush forward? Tell other captains that in the order of training, the columns will be in line, no matter what happens, as long as the flagship is still there, they are not allowed to leave the team without authorization. Hang the red light and set sail!" This time, Hong Tao did not follow the rules of good deeds. He is no longer afraid of death, or has lived enough.

It was a ridiculous adventure to go deep into the Song Dynasty to carry out the beheading operation. At this time, it would be meaningless if you were still afraid of death. If you were willing to die, Hong Tao planned to be truly awesome. If you really succeeded, when you get old, you could hold your grandson and say to him: Your grandfather was the first to rush in back then, how about it? Your grandfather, I am so powerful!

As a string of red lanterns hung on the mast of the flagship, the warships of the Expeditionary Fleet also hung red lights one by one. The lookout hand stared at the red lights on the mast of the ship in front, providing distance parameters to the helmsman and sailors, and then followed one by one toward the entrance of the Qiantang River. The gunners on the deck also lifted the cannon suits and began to conduct a final inspection of the cannon. The deck was also in a mess, and the Marines began to check their equipment. The captain of each team took the plan and began to ask questions from individuals. If at this time, there was still people who did not know their tasks, they could only be disarmed and confined.
