Chapter 407 Mirage! Mirage!
Hu Ye had never seen such a huge fleet, with ten ships loaded with nearly three thousand soldiers, and went to the sea to wipe out the Japanese pirates.
It was shaking on the sea, but now the soldiers are used to it. It seems that Zhu Yunwen's training has achieved results in the past month. Few soldiers will be seasick. Even Hu Ye sat firmly on the bow of the boat, looking at the seabirds hovering over the boat.
Lao Qian was no longer seasick, and he started playing on the bow of the boat with a huge horizontal knife.
This big ship is good, with small winds and waves just like on the flat ground, unlike those small boats in the past, where the wind is like a tsunami.
"Young Master, is the overseas fairy island you are talking about true?"
Lao Qian put away his sword, came to Hu Ye, and asked carefully.
After asking, he just stepped back because he knew that it must be Hu Ye's legs that greeted him.
Sure enough, when Hu Ye heard this, he turned around and kicked him, but Lao Qian was prepared and directly avoided.
"I have been with me for so long, but I still can't understand the truth and lies of this young master? Although the overseas fairy island exists, it is not the fairy island, it is the deadly island. If Gongshuji and Zhang Dingbian want to go, just let them go. If you want to go too, I will let you go up there in a few years."
Hu Ye took back his foot and looked at Lao Qian fiercely. Why has this guy followed him for so long and has not yet made any progress?
"Hehe, I'm just curious." Old Qian smiled awkwardly, and then continued to play with his sword. I don't know where the sword the young master found was simply cut into iron like mud. Didn't you see those soldiers drooling at our sword?
Seeing Lao Qian playing with a sword, Hu Ye cursed and continued to look at the very calm sea. He knew that Lao Qian would ask about the overseas fairy islands, and there must be other meanings. After all, this guy is a subordinate of Brother Zhang. But Hu Ye didn't care about this anymore. After all, he was a brother with Zhang Fu, so he would definitely take him with him if he had any benefits.
However, although there are many benefits to going to the South American continent, it is also full of dangers. Not to mention the closed natural system above, it will definitely cause discomfort if you break in. The amazing death rate of the Spanish expedition team is a wake-up call for Hu Ye. There is also the westerly wind belt on the sea. As for the current fleet, once it is involved, it will be good to survive. I also think about finding the South American continent, which is like winning the lottery.
So if you want to sail on the sea calmly like now, it is a luxury dream.
"Hey, why do you want so much to do? There is still time to prepare."
Hu Ye shook his head. It is not the time to consider the trip to South America. Now is the important issue of the Japanese pirates, because they have been out of the sea for a day and a night. Not only have they not found the shadow of the Japanese pirates, but they have not even found an island. Didn’t they see that Zhu Yunwen on the ship in front of them have become angry?
Although I couldn't hear what Zhu Yunwen was saying, I could see Zhu Yunwen's already red face from afar. After all, for this trip to sea, Zhu Yunwen had prepared too much, not only built six intact ships, but also trained so many soldiers. If there was nothing to gain this time, where would he put his face?
After sighing, Hu Ye called the soldiers on the ship, "Do you know where you are sailing now?"
"Sir Qibing, we have sailed southeast for about 300 miles, and the specific location is unknown." The soldier replied.
"I don't know? What are you doing for?"
Hu Ye was depressed. Zhu Yunwen was really good. He had to go to sea for so long, but he didn't even look for some reliable navigators. Even if there were no such people in the army, it would be okay to find some fishermen? It was more reliable than these land ducks.
I wanted to kick the soldier a few times, but in the end I still didn't make any mistakes. There was nothing I could do. Now the Ming Dynasty does not pay attention to the sea, otherwise the Japanese pirates would not be so arrogant.
"I said to Dean, don't complain. My soldiers are all landslides. It is very rare to be able to avoid seasickness now. Do they have to report their location to you?"
Lu Bing walked up at this time and said to Hu Ye.
"Mr. Lu, do you know how big it is to lose your position at sea?" Hu Ye glanced at Lu Bing. Although this guy is not seasick now, he was trained by Zhu Yunwen many times.
But that was just not seasick. Do you still hope that such a commander of the army could command these sailors? I'm afraid he didn't know how much there was to pay attention to in the water marching. Now it has been a day and nearly half of the food on the ship has been consumed, because before departure, I never thought that it would take so long to go to sea. After all, an island was found in a few hours last time.
The most important thing to go on is not food. After all, there is a lot of food in the sea, but tamsui is a scarce resource. In just one day, half of the tamsui on the ship has been consumed. If you can't find the island, or if you find there is no tamsui on the island, you may be afraid that this time you will not be able to destroy the Japanese pirates, but seek death.
"Hey, Dean Hu, I'm just a landslide. I don't understand what you said to me. Just follow Your Highness's boat." Lu Bing sighed.
Hu Ye rolled his eyes and continued to chat with Lu Bing, and his IQ would have problems, so Hu Ye took Xiaoqiang toward the cabin.
However, before Hu Ye walked in, he found that it was raining, and it was going to be getting heavier and heavier.
It rains well, and there is fresh water when it rains. It can finally alleviate the problem of fresh water resources on the ship. So I asked all the soldiers to use the containers they can bring to pick up the rain, saying that you must be well prepared next time you go to sea. Even if Zhu Yunwen is overbearing, it will not work. You can't joke about his life.
Zhu Yunwen seemed to be unwilling to see whether it rained or not. He just looked at the vast sea surface in front of him. What he was looking for was the Japanese pirates, not the calm sea surface.
"Zichen, where are you now?" Zhu Yunwen stood on the bow of the boat and let the heavy rain drift, feeling that this could relieve the anger in his heart.
"When you go back to Your Highness, you don't know the specific location. It should be more than 300 miles southeast of Quanzhou." Yun Zichen replied carefully.
"How many soldiers were left in Quanzhou to guard?" Zhu Yunwen asked with some concern.
"Your Highness, this time we went to sea, we brought two thousand personal guards and one thousand Yongning guards, so there are still thousands of people guarding Quanzhou now, and those Japanese pirates should not have the courage to cause trouble." Yun Zichen knew what Zhu Yunwen was worried about, but he believed that as long as the Japanese pirates were not lunatics, they would not take this opportunity to attack Quanzhou.
“So very good.”
Zhu Yunwen finally breathed a sigh of relief. If he not only went out to sea but did not find the Japanese pirates, but instead made the Japanese pirates attack Quanzhou, he would be really embarrassed.
"Your Highness, let's go to the cabin to shelter from the rain." Yun Zichen persuaded Zhu Yunwen.
"What are you afraid of? Lou Ying and Xiao Jiuxian are accompanying you, are you still afraid of getting sick?"
Zhu Yunwen snorted coldly. He was in a bad mood now and needed to use rain to calm down.
Yun Zichen knew that Zhu Yunwen should not be provoked at this time, so he had to stand on the bow of the boat with Zhu Yunwen in the rain.
As for the two old men, Lou Ying and Xiao Jiuxian, when they heard that Zhu Yunwen was going to sea to kill the Japanese pirates again this time, they naturally took the initiative to ask to follow. They didn't keep up last time, but there was no medicine for more than a month. This time, they had to follow the fleet.
As for Nagumi Mitorihito and Matsushita Rakan, I heard that Zhu Yunwen went out to sea to wipe out the Japanese pirates, and he also strongly asked Zhu Yunwen to take them with him, because among these Japanese pirates, there were many individuals who were their Southern Dynasties army, but they were defeated in the battle with the Northern Dynasties army. Now they can summon these people to become their counterattack force.
Zhu Yunwen's meaning is very clear. You can follow him, but whether those Japanese pirates will survive depends on how he feels.
However, as it seems now, if Zhu Yunwen saw the alive Japanese pirates, he would definitely have to cut pumpkins.
In this regard, Kuramiya Miren and Matsushita Naoka were very clear, because they had already seen Zhu Yunwen's face in the cabin.
"Your Highness, do we really need to rely on them? I think Zhu Yunwen is not that easy to mess with." Matsushita Satoha said in a low voice to Mihito Kuramiya, but they were speaking Japanese, and the soldiers guarding them were too lazy to pay attention to it.
"That Zhu Yunwen is insignificant, but the boy on another ship should be careful." As the prince of a country, Kuramiya Shiren naturally would not be as simple as he seemed. He knew that Hu Ye saved his life at the beginning, so he didn't have a good intention.
But now he can only accept his fate, because if he wants to restore the country, he must rely on the power of the Ming Dynasty.
"That boy? I think he is still a little baby with a stinky breast, so what's there to worry about?" Matsushita Yoshika murmured.
"People should not behave like a person, and the sea water should not be measured. This is the most popular saying of the Ming Dynasty." Kuramiya Shiren looked at Zhu Yunwen who was in the rain at the bow of the boat, then looked at Hu Ye who was hiding from the rain on the boat behind, and then stopped talking.
He knew that if he wanted to rely on the strength of the Ming Dynasty to restore the country, he would not be able to avoid being restricted. If he wanted to be restricted to the minimum, he had to establish a good relationship with the future heirs of the Ming Dynasty.
The rain stopped shortly after it fell, and then a rainbow appeared in the sky, which reminded Hu Ye of a sentence, saying that the sun always shines after the wind and rain.
This sentence is correct, but with the rainbow, there is also a beautiful picture.
Everyone in the entire fleet saw it. Just behind the fleet, there was a scene like a fairyland, towering mountains, magnificent high clouds, and a white giant dragon flying.
"God! God!"
Someone immediately shouted, and this picture only appears in the Land of Gods.
Gongshuji jumped out, and other things couldn't attract him, but the gods were different. After staying in the boat for a long time, it was time to come out and get some breath.
"Boy, isn't the overseas fairy island you mentioned like that?"
