- Section 12 Cruise Warship
On the endless ocean, the defensive fleet of Deep Water Bay is conducting normal patrols. A sailboat with two rows of large sails and a length of more than 20 meters is docked in a shallow sea on a rocky island.
The crew members in the cabin were having a great time playing cards with wine bottles, dice, and cards. The only people on duty on the deck also got together to play cards.
"By the way, Duke Brant has been suffering from convulsions recently. He has to let me go out on patrol at sea. It's really hard in such a cool season!" Ram pulled the skirt around his neck closer and cursed in confusion.
"Yes! Is it possible that there are pirates nearby who dare to rob our Deep Water Bay?"
"You can't say that. Duke Brant has a place in the southern territory, surrounded by his vassals or alliance nobles. We also have the responsibility to protect them from pirates." First mate Hamra rubbed his hands and played his cards. road.
"Protect, protect this bird!"
The fleshy sailor Mus gave up and said: "The pirates' ships are much faster than ours. Every time we hear the news that a certain offshore area has been invaded, we speed up our rowing or arrive with the wind. Every time we go there are pirates." They ran away first, and we tried our best to catch up, but most of them couldn't catch up."
"A few times we encountered pirates who came ashore to rob us. We finally caught up with those pirates and fought hard to defeat them. We finally got some property but were taken back by the superiors."
"They say we sailors are like pirates, damn! I'm old and young, how can I survive without extorting something!" Mus complained.
"Hey!" Ram sighed: "The most miserable thing is that we sailors are not as good as pirates. My former brother has contacted me a few days ago. He said that he is now living in the pirate group. That¡¯s good, he is now a captain, has money and a woman, and lives a very cool life.¡±
"How about we become pirates too!" Mus said angrily.
"Ahem! Let's just settle down and be sailors! At least we can get three silver coins every month if we don't do anything else. Being a pirate would risk losing your head. You'd be in constant fear every day, and your income would be unstable. Being a sailor is hard work, but at least it's Out of the ocean, no one can control us except the captain, which is far more free than soldiers on land." First Mate Ham knocked on the table and reminded cautiously.
"Hey! That's right. I went out to put out the water." Sailor Mus nodded in confusion, opened the cabin and walked towards the deck.
Hundreds of white sails appeared on the endless ocean, and James didn't notice it. It wasn't until he took a closer look that he discovered the black spots under the sails. At this time, the Elantra fleet traveling with the wind was advancing at an average speed of 14 knots, and the speeds of Kamikaze Express and Clipper were as high as 18 knots and 16 knots.
"Lord Baron, our forwards found a Duke Brant battleship with an eagle flag on the coral rock floating island in the shallow sea ahead." The lookout on the Hailan quickly reported the news to Lin Fenghan and the others.
Lin Fenghan, who was rehearsing tactics, raised his head in surprise and walked out of the cabin with everyone.
"How big is that ship? How far away is it from us? What is the fastest speed of our ship? How long is it estimated to take to catch up?" Lin Fenghan awkwardly observed with a monocular. I secretly vowed to urge the Academy of Sciences to develop pure, translucent, and clearer spectacle lenses as soon as possible.
"Baron, that ship is a little more than two nautical miles away from us, and the size cannot be clearly seen. We are traveling with the wind. The fastest Kamikaze Express with the lightest hull can reach 18 nautical miles per hour. If they travel against the wind and go to the west, If they can't run fast, our Kamikaze Express will only take 10 to 20 minutes to catch up with them." The lookout said seriously while looking at the small windmill testing the wind speed and direction.
"Very good, I ordered the 10 Kamikaze Express ships in the middle not to maintain their formation, but to rush forward and kill them. We must delay the news of our attack." Lin Fenghan nodded with satisfaction.
"yes!"
Located in the first battle sequence, the 10 triangular sail clippers in the middle, carrying 10 people, immediately filled their sails, increased their speed, and rushed forward at a faster speed.
After being stunned for a moment, Muse wiped his eyes fiercely. After careful observation to confirm that it was not an hallucination, he was so panicked that he didn't even fasten his pants and quickly ran to the watch room and shouted: "The first mate, the captain is not good. , many ships appeared in the eastern sea, at least fifty or sixty."
"Holy crap! This is impossible! Don't scare me, except Duke Brant, who else in the south can build such a huge fleet." Ham put down the cigarette in his hand in shock and said in disbelief.
"First mate, it's true. I will never lie to you. If you don't believe me, go out and have a look." Ms. slapped the table eagerly and shouted.
Ram gently put down the cards and said quietly:?: "As human beings who are warriors, we must learn to be calm. Look at you, you didn't even lift your pants. You won't be frightened by the hallucination and pee!"
"I have been on the ocean for more than ten years, and I often encounter confusing things such as mental hallucinations or seeing mirages after being on the ship for a long time. We must stay calm."
"Ram, let's go out and have a look! If it's an illusion, you should go for a walk." Ham cautiously picked up the hat and said seriously.
"Okay! Although the temperature of 17 degrees outside is not too cold, you can't help the sea breeze! Mus, if you dare to lie to me, I will fix you specifically next time you play cards." Ram unluckily picked up the windbreaker and Ham, James walked out.
At this time, Elantra's fleet is closer to Duke Brandt's battleship, especially the forward Kamikaze Express, which is less than three kilometers away from the floating island battleship.
¡°I can¡¯t see clearly the white clouds in the distance, but what are they?¡± Ham pointed in surprise at more than a dozen white sailboats that could be observed with the naked eye three kilometers away.
"It's a battleship! It's a triangular sail fast battleship." Ram's mouth opened in surprise and he said in panic.
"The white clouds in the distance are definitely not white clouds. They are most likely the sailboat's canvas." Ham was shocked as he looked at the fleet that was connected in a row, more than 500 meters across, and quickly ran towards the lower level of the cabin.
"Ram, hurry up and ring the bell. I'll go down and call the captain."

The huge bells kept ringing, and Ham rolled and crawled into the captain's cabin.
"The captain is sorry. There are many sailboats coming from outside, more than a hundred of them. What should we do now?"
"Bomb! Haha, I won." The third deck put down the cards and laughed as he pulled a pile of copper coins on the table into his arms.
The captain put down the cards angrily and yelled at Ham: "You're yelling at me, you're calling me a loser. With more than 100 sailboats, do you think I'm a fool?"
Ham said nervously and aggrievedly: "It's true. I swear on the name of the first mate captain that if what I tell is a lie, you can apply to your superiors to remove me from the position of first mate captain."
"What? Are you serious? Brothers, come out with me and take a look." The forty-year-old battleship captain looked at the first mate in surprise and quickly ordered.
"Walk!"
