Chapter 2807 I have a hunch that I can find what Cheng Sanlang said
"This is the last remaining port..."
Wu Tunhu looked at this very crude port and looked at the barbarians in strange clothes on the pier, carrying various supplies onto the ship.
"Well, yes... our journey eastward went very smoothly, but we all relied on the route provided by the previous charts of the Han and Tang Dynasty trading houses."
"The next sea route needs to be solved by ourselves."
Li Dejiang stood at the bow of the ship, with his hands on his hips, looking at the sea and sky in front of him with a high-spirited expression.
The waves were rolling in the vast sea, but the four-masted ship beneath me was as steady as a mountain.
On this four-masted ship, there are several cables attached, which extend towards the sky and rise to a height of nearly a hundred feet from the top of the four-masted ship.
A hot air balloon was dangling above, and an observer was staying in the fairy basket, holding a telescope and looking around.
Behind them, there are two smaller three-masted ships, which is the entirety of their ocean-going expedition fleet.
There were also a large number of rangers on the decks of those ships, but these rangers seemed too free and loose in the past.
Nowadays, they are all doing various tasks such as cleaning the deck, touching up paint, and checking cables.
From time to time, when they looked ahead at Li Dejiao standing on the bow of the four-masted ship, the eyes of these rangers were full of enthusiasm and admiration.
"A great chivalrous person serves the country and the people." Nowadays, karma has become the ultimate goal pursued by these knight-errants.
In the past, young people who only knew how to travel around the world, fool around, and be happy and wanton seemed to have grown up and become more mature.
This time, Li Dejiang decided to go to the other side of the ocean to explore the unknown after it spread in the world.
Countless knight-errants called their friends and came to follow him, which led Li De to go wandering just to get a big boat.
These followers who came from all directions in the Tang Dynasty had to be taken seriously. In the end, the adventure team originally only had a few dozen people.
It immediately turned into a large team consisting of more than 300 rangers with high martial arts skills.
Fortunately, the Han and Tang Dynasties Commercial Bank would not be stingy with its shareholder, Erlang, the military god of the Tang Dynasty.
They immediately took out the best new four-masted ships and two three-masted ships, and staffed them with the most experienced seamen.
This makes Li De Award excited, but also deeply aware of his great responsibility.
No matter what, I cannot live up to the trust placed in me by so many Rangers of the Tang Dynasty, and strive to let everyone go and return together.
"Second Young Master, Second Young Master..." At this time, urgent shouts came from the distance.
Li Dejiang looked back and saw the steward running towards him panting.
#####
"Don't be impatient, Mr. Niu, but what do you want to see Li about?"
"Second Young Master, I just received the news. I also ask Second Young Master to stay here for another three to five days."
"Why?" Li Dezhai was a little confused, looking at the teams who were delivering supplies to the ship.
"Is it because of insufficient supplies?"
"No, no, no, it's not supplies, it's the supplies that the chairman sent people to rush to deliver to you, Second Young Master. It's still two or three days away from us."
"So I hope that the Second Young Master will wait until the supplies are received before setting sail."
While he was talking, Manager Niu, who was sweating all over from running, handed the letter to Li Dejiang.
Li Dejiang took the letter with some curiosity. As soon as he opened it, his face turned dark.
Looking at the words on it, it goes without saying that it must be a letter written by that boy Cheng Sanlang. After all, only this guy can write such words.
The content of the letter was not much, it was just a complaint that the Li De Award was too wasteful and that he jumped out to take risks so early.
He Cheng couldn't help him any more, so he got him two thunder cannons, more than a thousand kilograms of gunpowder, and twenty thunder cannonballs.
In addition, there were five boxes of grenades, and he also told Li Dejiang how to make his own solid artillery shells after running out of mine shells.
Seeing the number of thunder bombs and grenades, Li Dejiang's eyelids jumped wildly.
After all, I have seen the power of the flying thunder cannon. One shot can blow up the imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty into such a ghostly state.
Twenty thunder bombs, plus those five boxes of grenades... Is Brother Chu Bi afraid that he will be in danger? Or does he want to attack the city?
#####
"Brother, what's wrong? Why does your expression look so strange?"
Seeing his eldest brother's complicated expression, Wu Tunhu came up to him and asked curiously.
Li Dejiao wiped his face vigorously and sighed in confusion.
"That boy Cheng Sanlang sent me a bunch of very difficult treasures..."
Wu Tunhu and Wu Tunbao, who have also lived in Chang'an in the past two years, have also seen the power of the flying thunder cannon.
"What the hell, Brother Tunhu, you are the most stable and reliable among the brothers. Well... when those things are delivered, you will be responsible for supervising them."
"Remember, no one can touch those things without my order, otherwise, I'm afraid we'll be blown up before we even find the New World."
After hearing this, Wu Tunhu couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and said in a low voice with a grimace.
"Ah, this...brother, I'm a little scared too. Otherwise, let's not bring these treasures..."
"My dear brother, this ocean is thousands of miles long, and there are too many unknown dangers. Cheng Sanlang has always been very resourceful, so now that someone has sent me this thing."
"Then there must be a reason. If you can't do it, then I will be responsible for it myself."
"No, no, no, since the eldest brother thinks this thing is of great use, the younger brother will choose a few cautious brothers to take care of it together, so that there will be no trouble."
"Okay, okay, this is my good brother. With this treasure, we don't have to be afraid even if we encounter those behemoths in this unknown ocean."
"Big brother is right. With these good treasures given by Little Cheng Taibao, they can even destroy Luoyang City, let alone behemoths in the sea."
"Even if we encounter a hostile barbarian army in the future, haha..."
"Yes." Li Dejiang nodded solemnly, his eyes gradually raised, and after seeing the fairy basket high on the ship, he couldn't help but reveal an exciting smile.
With this fairy basket that can climb high and see far away, the fleet can avoid many dangers at sea to the greatest extent.
And with those gunpowder weapons, even if they encounter an unknown attack, those gunpowder weapons can definitely become their greatest guard of honor to protect themselves.
"Swallow the tiger, swallow the leopard... I have a hunch. I think we will definitely be able to find the new world that Cheng Sanlang said this time."
