There were many different opinions for a while, and Gu Nian frowned, trying to choose the best solution from everyone's opinions.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, something unexpected happened!
When everyone was discussing the next step, Lin Chen never expressed his position because he focused his attention on another place.
He stood on the observation deck of the Dawn, holding a telescope and paying attention to the movements around him.
He had some vague guesses in his mind, but he was not sure yet. So he did not participate in other people's discussions. He just observed the surrounding sea area carefully and followed Gu Nian with his eyes from time to time.
When he saw a ship appearing on the unobstructed sea, he immediately shouted to Gu Nian: "There are other ships on the sea, approaching us."
"We don't know whether the people coming are enemies or friends, let alone their purpose, so we need to be prepared in advance. All family members, please go back to the cabin and wait. All crew members and sailors are in their respective positions and are on standby at any time!" Gu Nian said.
As she spoke, she nodded to Lin Chen.
Lin Chen immediately said to Li Shan and Leng Shan: "Pick a few people to go with me to get weapons, and distribute the weapons to everyone in case of emergency."
Because they didn't know whether the incoming person was an enemy or a friend, in order to protect their Shuguang and the supplies on it, they had no choice but to stand ready.
After making such arrangements, Gu Nian received an unexpected surprise.
"Let me stay and join the fight. Don't look at me like this. I have been an old first mate who has fought against level 8 storms before!" An uncle in his fifties or sixties stood up and said.
"And me! I can do it too! Even though I injured a leg when I went to sea, I am a good sailor. As long as you give me a gun, I can kill the enemy!"
"I'll stay too! My eldest brother is a sailor. I received professional training with him since childhood, but after marrying my wife, I became a shipping manager at the dock."
"I can do it too! Even though I'm only seventeen years old, my father raised me strictly from an early age. I will be a captain in the future!"
…
Some of these crew members and sailor family members, like Chen Yuan's father, are experienced old captains, old sailors, old first mates...
With the addition of Gu Nian, Lin Chen and the others, the Shuguang escort team, which originally had only 41 people, instantly increased to more than 20 people.
Lin Chen took some people to select weapons, while Chen Gang, Chen Yuan and his son were arranged to go to the cab.
Leng Shan watched over the crew and sailors' families, letting them take shelter in the cabin temporarily.
Gu Nian has been observing the situation with a telescope.
Seeing the ship heading straight towards where the Dawn was, she had a vague premonition in her heart.
Immediately afterwards, with her enhanced vision, she discovered that there were more than a dozen people on the ship, all with weapons in their hands.
When she saw this scene, Lin Chen happened to be returning from the warehouse with weapons in hand.
"Brother Lin, those guys are really evil. They are all armed." She frowned and said.
It was obvious that they were here to rob the supplies aboard the Dawn.
Lin Chen squinted his eyes, picked a rifle from among the weapons, pulled the bolt, and said to everyone: "We wait until they get close and then fight. This time, let them never come back!"
