Chapter 783: Kong Yingda at the kindergarten level (10,000 words for monthly ticket)
Su Dingfang squinted his eyes and kept staring at the bamboo basket. When he saw the red flag waving, he stared silently for a while and suddenly said excitedly: "The enemy is behind the small island on the west side, with about seventy warships!"
This thing works so well!
Flying to the sky like this, you can see the mountains, rivers and sea in front of your eyes!
Fang Jun chuckled and said, "Give me the order, Grand Governor!"
Su Dingfang took a deep breath. This was his first battle as the commander of the Royal Navy. Although he had experienced countless battles, this time was different. Not only because this was a water battle that he was not familiar with, but also because this was his first battle.
Command the battle once as the head coach!
"Liu Renyuan's third brigade and Liu Rengui's second brigade went straight forward, bypassing the southern end of the island and turning north; Xi Junmai's fourth brigade and the first brigade turned around, heading south along the coast from the northern end of the island, and the second,
The third brigade attacked from the north and south and won in one battle!"
As his order was issued, the signalmen standing on the mast waved flags and conveyed the order to the rest of the ships.
The entire fleet quickly split into two, with one part continuing south and turning back around the island, while the main 1st and 4th brigades turned around. Hundreds of warships left white trails in the clear sea, and in an instant
The deployment was completed within a short period of time, and each went straight to their own combat goals.
Kong Yingda exclaimed: "A master of hundreds of battles is nothing more than this!"
The monstrous momentum formed by these hundreds of warships is indeed shocking, but Fang Jun always gives Kong Yingda some trouble from time to time. Hearing this, he said: "It's too early for me to say this. The current fleet is not as perfect as the younger generation thinks."
The fleet must not even reach one-tenth."
Kong Yingda glared and said: "Don't think that I don't know anything about military affairs, so you just brag in front of me! How strong can you be, no matter how strong you are?"
Fang Jun laughed out loud, "Thousands of miles of ocean, coming and going in all directions! Not trapped by the monsoon, not afraid of the dangers of wind and waves, the ship can sail through the sea and cut through the waves. The South and East Oceans can be reached in only ten days, and the distance of the great eclipse can be traveled back and forth in a year!"
Master, do you know that if you sail across the ocean and head east, can you reach the end of the sky and the edge of the sea?"
Kong Yingda said excitedly: "If there is such a powerful ship, wouldn't it be possible to reach the legendary Penglai Island?"
If we could find a fairy island, wouldn't we be able to get the elixir of immortality?
In the past, Qin Shihuang sent the alchemist Xu Fu to take a boat with 500 boys and girls to search for the fairy island. However, before Xu Fu could bring back the elixir of immortality, his life span was exhausted. He still missed the fairy island until his death! Today, your majesty is wise and powerful.
, if he could obtain the elixir of immortality and live forever, wouldn't the Tang Dynasty also prosper under his leadership and never collapse?
If this is really the case, then the world and the people will be very lucky!
Fang Jun's mouth twitched, something bad happened!
How could I have forgotten that most people in this era believe in and have a deep obsession with overseas fairy islands that can produce the elixir of immortality?
Moreover, emperors of all dynasties were crazy obsessed with being able to live forever, enjoy the supremacy of the emperor forever, and control the owner of this beautiful country. Not to mention the emperor like Qin Shihuang who wanted to control the world and even built his own mausoleum into mountains, lakes, earth and stars.
It seems that even a wise emperor like His Majesty Li Er was eventually destroyed by this desire for "immortality"...
What if His Majesty Li Er commits a demonic disorder and hears that I can build a warship that can reach the end of the sea, and on a whim asks me to lead the fleet to find immortals and medicine for him? It’s not impossible to go to sea, but there are no immortals at all.
Island, there is no elixir of immortality! When I went to North and South America, there was no elixir of immortality. Under the gaze of His Majesty Li Er, who was looking forward to immortality, he only brought back a boatload of sweet potatoes, potatoes and peppers.
What will happen to you?
It’s scary to think about it…
Fang Jun quickly said: "The overseas fairy mountains are just legends. Has anyone really seen them?"
Kong Yingda said flatly: "Of course some people have seen it! Along the coast, from time to time, people have witnessed with their own eyes that there are mountain peaks, huge rocks, and even people and animals appearing on the vast sea. If it is not an overseas fairy mountain, how can these things exist on the sea?"
Fang Jun touched his forehead with his hand...
How to explain the formation of mirages to an ancient person who is still in the stage of "two children arguing about the sun"? I guess this old master can figure out a "small hole image" even if he tries hard!
There is really no way to explain this. He doesn’t even understand what air is. How can he be expected to understand the refraction of light? Kong Yingda’s physics knowledge is probably equivalent to the kindergarten level of later generations...
Fang Jun was sweating a little, so he could only say: "There are absolutely no fairy islands or sacred mountains on the sea, and as for the elixir of immortality, it is even more illusory. But what you mentioned about the appearance of people and mountains on the sea, I will give it to you after my class."
Do an experiment to prove that it is purely a nihilistic scene."
Kong Yingda obviously didn't believe it.
Instead, the guide said: "The sea is vast, and all kinds of weird things can happen. A dragon as high as the sky absorbs water, the bottom of the sea sometimes rolls like boiling water, and waves as high as a city wall are commonplace. Every summer, the sea
There will be hurricanes passing by, and strong winds will roll up huge waves like mountains and rush onto the land. Wherever they pass, no matter how huge the trees are, they will be uprooted... I loved the sea when I was very young, and dreamed of sailing on a big ship.
In the ocean, go see those weird things, even if you die under the huge waves, you will feel very happy..."
Fang Jun looked at him in surprise, thinking that this was a guy with the adventurous character of a navigator, so he couldn't help but ask: "What's your name?"
The guide quickly said: "Here comes the little Tianyun."
"Haha, that's a good name." Fang Jun praised it.
Tian Yun is coming, Tian Yun is coming...
Maybe this guy can be trained as a scapegoat to open a route to explore the Americas...
The fleet rounded the sharp corner on the north side of the island and turned south. Presumably at this time, the second and third brigades had almost rounded the southern end of the island. The two fleets were heading towards each other and were about to converge to surround the pirates.
in the middle!
The five-tooth battleship sailed quickly on the sea. Because the draft was too shallow, the bumps were severe. If the wind and waves were a little bigger, the boat could be capsized and people would be killed at any time. Fang Jun stood on the side of the ship, terrified, and made up his mind to wait until a new type of sea-going ship was built.
, you must never go to sea on this five-tooth battleship again.
In inland rivers and lakes, the Five-Tooth Battleship is an invincible existence. But on the sea, its innate design factors determine that it is a top-heavy drunkard. It can be blown over by a strong wind at any time, causing all the people on the boat to fall into the sea.
Feed the fish and shrimp...
The wind is not strong, so the sails have limited borrowing power, and this kind of sail is too backward to maximize the speed of the ship with the help of wind. The huge hot air balloon floats behind the ship, being pulled by a strong and solid rope, like
Flying along like a big kite.
Suddenly, the red flag in the bamboo basket of the hot air balloon waved again, and horns sounded from each warship one after another, gradually becoming one. All the warships increased their speed to the fastest and rushed forward crazily.
*****
The sea was calm in the harbor, and the warm waves gently licked the sides of the ships. Seventy or eighty ships docked at random, dropping their anchors and quietly waiting for the island owner's order.
Gai Dahai sat on the flagship with a gloomy look on his face.
He knew that his fleet was no match for the imperial navy, even though most of the navy, from generals to soldiers, were infantry. In fact, Fang Jun's victory in the battle at Niuzhuji was so brilliant that Gai Dahai never stopped. Fear arose in my heart.
But he is still unwilling...
The lair that I have been running for twenty years is suddenly taken away by Fang Jun. How can I swallow this sigh of relief?
Those women who were killed before leaving, as well as the countless valuables and money left on the island, are all years of savings!
How not to feel bad?
What's more important is that now he has become a homeless child, floating alone on the sea without a base to supplement him. He is a delicacy in the eyes of other pirates, and everyone will pounce on him and bite him! The jungle of the jungle in the pirate world , even worse than facing a merchant ship that is about to be robbed!
We are enemies when we are plundering merchant ships. If the other party is more docile and gives in to what we ask for, sometimes we will let the other party live. However, among pirates, they usually seem to be joking and harmonious. Once someone is unlucky, they will immediately smell the smell of blood in the sea. Pounce like a shark!
