But Liu Yi had already looked at the Qi and saw the mountainous Qi in front of him from a distance. There will not be an island ahead, but a continent. Otherwise, such a huge and dignified earth energy cannot be cultivated. But one day later, the first thing they encountered was an island. This is a high mountain extending from the sea floor, covering an area of ??at least a thousand miles. Lush vegetation covers every piece of land on the island. Everyone cheered, although they didn't know there was land ahead. But such a large island is enough for them to repair and replenish supplies. And according to the laws of Dachu, if this island is uninhabited, No one has ever discovered that if it is recorded on the chart, they can even occupy it themselves. You can even apply for financial support from the court or the private sector to establish a foreign vassal territory here. Of course, this is the most ideal situation. However, this sweet dream soon woke up. Before they even got close to the pirates, there was violent drumming. Soon after, dark canoes rushed towards the fleet from all over the island. ?Obviously, this would not be a welcome move. Although Da Chu is expanding outward, it does not encourage things like massacring the natives. But if you encounter this situation, you will never show mercy! Wang Ran was speechless as he looked at the indigenous people in the distance who were brandishing simple weapons and whose dark bodies were covered with colorful oil paint. "Be careful," Liu Yi shouted sternly: "Don't underestimate them. Did you see there is a stranded steamship on the shore" Wang Ran was shocked and raised his telescope to look over. Sure enough, I saw a large steam ship in the distance, which seemed to be smaller than the one in my fleet. However, it was actually half-sunk on the rocks on the shore. Is there anything weird about this place? Wang Ran thought to himself, how could these savage-like guys sink a steamship? Or maybe the ship simply sank on its own? No matter what, these natives were already shouting and rushing over with strange screams. Although Yizihao is the smallest of the three ships in the fleet. But it is still a ship with 4,000 materials. The head and tail are also about three feet long. Compared to the indigenous canoes, they are huge. It is even more fully armed, even though it is a baggage ship. But since they have gone to the other side of the sea and carried out such an important task, the force above them will definitely not be weak. "Under the orders of the captain of the Yi Zi, hundreds of sailors rushed onto the deck and began to attack from a high position. The crossbow arrows were shot like rain. Da Chu has spent more than two thousand years in expansion. Military equipment has always been improving and has not stagnated. Although the technology tree is different, things like gunpowder and muskets were not born. However, the manufacturing of this crossbow has reached its pinnacle. Liu Yi has seen these crossbows, all of which are made of steel. Even the bowstrings are made of twisted steel wire. Compared with the Fan Yi era, it can shoot a crossbow of three hundred steps. At this time, it was even worse. There was even a god-shooting crossbow invented specifically for masters, which was so powerful that it could shoot a thousand steps away. Even these ships are equipped with standard crossbows that can be equipped in the army according to the rules of going to sea. Although the range is only about a hundred steps, this crossbow can actually fire continuously. Whether it is winding or firing, it becomes very simple and fast. Basically, this kind of crossbow can fire three rounds in a minute in the hands of a skilled soldier. And some powerful people can even fire five rounds in one minute. You can imagine what it will be like when hundreds of crossbows are fired at this time. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? When you have bad eyesight, you can¡¯t even see people¡¯s faces clearly. One by one, the natives screamed and fell into the water. Soon the blue water was dyed red. Even the canoe they were riding in could not withstand the power of the crossbow and was riddled with holes. The blood in the water quickly attracted sharks. The dorsal fins were exposed out of the water one by one, and they quickly came over to bite them. These natives were almost stunned and panicked. He seemed to want to retreat. With this generational difference in technology, they almost have no power to fight back. However, the sound of drums on the shore became more and more intense. These nativesHe not only stopped panicking, but also rushed towards Yi Zihao again. "Look, lookthose sharks" Liu Yi had already seen that even the sharks in the water seemed to have heard the order amidst the sound of the drums and rushed towards Yi Zihao. At one time, there were only a thousand of these indigenous canoes, but there seemed to be tens of thousands of sharks gathering nearby with their dorsal fins exposed. The sea is full of dense dorsal fins, which looks very scary. "I'll do it!" After going to sea, Wang Ran, who had never had a chance to perform, became energetic at this time. He casually took out a bottle and dripped a few drops of dark ink-like juice into the sea. Just two or three drops of liquid were seen spreading quickly. All sharks exposed to the venom immediately turned over on their bellies and floated on the water. This liquid spread extremely fast, expanding to several hundred meters around Yi Zihao in the blink of an eye. As long as the sharks that rush towards them come into contact with the black water, death is the only outcome. However, this is not the end. Following Wang Ran's voice, the black water seemed to come alive, and it took the initiative to pounce towards the group of sharks farther away. It only took a short time to burn incense until the other two ships came closer. There is no shark left alive in the sea. Even if they hit a little bit of sea water, such as the splash while rowing a boat, the natives who fell on them would all fall down one by one. And it is simply impossible for these canoes not to hit the sea water when rowing. For a while, the huge sea seemed to be quiet. No one expected that Wang Ran would be so terrifying when he took action. The next moment, there were random sounds of "bang bang bang bang". The belly of the shark floating on the sea exploded, and black liquid splashed everywhere. "The black area on the sea expanded more than ten times, covering hundreds of acres of sea. "Gu Master, it's a Gu Master" Li Fang, who was standing on the steamboat, saw this scene and murmured in shock. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that Wang Ran came from the Demon Slayer Department. He is actually a Gu Master, and he is actually such a powerful Gu Master. When there was still Southern Xinjiang, using Gu was what those Southern Wilderness wizards were good at. Subsequently, Southern Wilderness was conquered by Da Chu. Most of the witches have integrated into the Middle-earth, and this ability to use poison has been introduced to the Middle-earth. "Moreover, it is valued by the court. Folks are restricted from using voodoo. However, official Gu magic has been further developed. It played a great role in the war and expansion of Chu Dynasty in the past dynasties. And the power of those Gu techniques was more than a hundred times more powerful. Those who master these Gu techniques are called Gu masters. These people can be said to be tactical weapons in the army. It's almost like a master who has mastered the Fire Cloud Sky Curtain. Before going to sea, Xu Yi and Li Fang also wanted to hire a Gu master to go to sea with them. However, it was found to be very difficult. So much so that they returned empty-handed, but they didn't expect that one of them had been quietly hidden on their ship. Liu Yi was not shocked. He had already seen Wang Ran's ability to use Gu during the battle to kill the evil god. He knew very well that Wang Ran was not a pure Gu master, but a warlock. In other words, you are good at many things, but you are not good at anything. However, it was beyond Liu Yi's expectation that even this half-assed Gu master still had such powerful poison in his body. "This is the Kuroshio. Although it is powerful, its effect is too limited. It can only be used in seawater" Wang Ran explained hehely. Liu Yi nodded, standing around Da Chu. There is really no use for this kind of voodoo. It is completely a weapon of mass destruction used by the military. Private ownership is strictly prohibited. ¡°I don¡¯t know where Wang Ran got it from, but everyone has a secret, and Liu Yi has no intention of getting to the bottom of it. In Qin Shiyue¡¯s memory, Liu Yi also knew that there was a poison called red tide that could be used in fresh water. More powerful. It was of great use in foreign wars. The river near a city that was stubbornly resisting the Chu army turned red. All the aquatic animals died, and countless fish and shrimps turned their stomachs. The entire city with a population of hundreds of thousands thought that this was a punishment from heaven, and their hearts collapsed and surrendered. In comparison, the Kuroshio used in seawater has much greater restrictions. At least, if people are sitting on a big boat, there is no threat at all. WithWith a sudden whistle, the black tide in the sea quickly retreated back. Then it turned into a few drops of liquid again and returned to Wang Ran's bottle. He put it down carefully. The sea water has returned to its original blue color. If it weren¡¯t for the many tattered corpses floating on it, the scene just now would have been just an illusion. The steamer waved its flag and headed towards the big island. The three ships, in a Z-shaped formation, moved towards the shore. In the dense forest on the island, the exciting drumming stopped at some point. Facing several ships that pounced on them aggressively, the silence was terrifying. However, in this silence, there is an invisible tension permeating the air. The storm was coming, and the wind filled the building, making the air seem to freeze. "Roar" Until a loud roar sounded, countless birds in the mountains and forests on the island flew up, as if they were in danger. "What on earth makes such a terrifying cry?" Xu Yi and Li Fang looked at each other, feeling secretly shocked. However, no matter what powerful things are on the island. They also have to go out and there is no way they will return without success. There are not many supplies in the fleet. Da Chu did not encourage the massacre of the natives. In fact, many times, Da Chu prefers to use business zombies to deal with these people. Because talent is the greatest wealth, because only talent can create wealth. That kind of massacre-style plunder is nothing more than raking in the water. Package deal. In fact, although Dachu is currently experiencing an economic crisis of overcapacity. However, Da Chu did not have no solutions. As early as the time of Taizong Fan Yi, the answer was left. And in the past dynasties of Da Chu, when encountering this kind of problem, they used various methods to solve it. Expand, have children, increase population. In a word, expand the market. If there is excess production capacity, we will find ways to expand the market. The simplest way to expand the market is to increase the population. And it increases the population with purchasing power. The market is composed of the population with purchasing power, not dead people, not slaves In fact, the expansion history of Dachu for more than two thousand years has already had a complete set of mature colonial models. Very efficient. And it is the indigenous people, under this system. After two or three generations, they will all become the people of Chu who speak the language of Middle-earth. There are only natives like the one in front of me, who are in tit-for-tat with Dachu from the very beginning and have bad intentions. Only then will they be regarded as enemies by Da Chu, and they will engage in cruel wars until their hostility is destroyed! And the slaves of Da Chu also came like this. ¡°Even in the policy of Da Chu for the past two hundred years, the use of slaves has long been discouraged. Because for Dachu, productivity is not the most important thing. And the market is the most important. Slaves have no purchasing power and are not an effective component of the market However, no matter what Dachu's policy says. At this time, facing these hostile guys, Da Chu always insisted on defeating them, not to mention that the fleet had to go ashore to replenish supplies. With Yi Zihao first docking for investigation, Liu Yi was the first to set foot on the shore. Then I heard the sound of trees breaking, and a huge thing rushed down from the mountain. Wherever it passed, the trees and vegetation of various sizes that blocked it were all broken as fragile as toothpicks. "It's a snake, it's such a big shot" Countless sailors on the Yizihao were so frightened that their legs became weak. From the gaps in the dense forest, we could see a huge and incredible python rushing down from the mountain. . The big tree with countless people hugging it was easily broken in front of this giant python. Liu Yi raised his eyebrows. Such a big snake must not have grown naturally. They are definitely already mature. "Pick up your crossbows," Liu Yi's steady and calm voice seemed to have a hypnotic power: "Get ready to fight!" Many sailors just woke up from a dream and quickly raised their crossbows. But at this moment, Liu Yi rushed towards the giant python first. However, what is faster than Lewis is the cannonball. There was just a "whoosh" sound, and a black shadow had already shot past Liu Yi from a place dozens of meters away. Then it fell into the mountains and forests. "Ouch" The snake let out a scream, and the huge body was obviously hit by the cannonball, rolling around in the forest. r1152?¡
