Chapter 159: The combined fleet of river and ocean thieves who poured out of the nest
"Ahh
Xu Xue stared at Mo Neng angrily, glaring angrily, as if she was going to bite someone in the next moment.
Seeing this, Mo Neng reached out his left hand and touched her head.
"Eh, junior sister, do you remember the time when you were punished by your master, who brought you food in the middle of the night? β
"Hmph!" Xu Xue slapped Mo Neng's hand away, "Repay the favor, you have been taking this matter for many years, and I shouldn't have eaten your things at that time!"
"Eh, you can't say that, don't you starve to death if you don't eat?
"Hmm~ It's okay to starve to death, so you don't have to be bullied anymore. β
Mo Neng sighed heavily, "Alas~ The human affection is warm and cold." β
After eating a trench and growing wise, Xu Xue silently moved into the distance, but did not go far.
Wang Luan took Han Ge and the King of Medicine to have a great time.
There were a few birdsong in the air, and everyone looked for the sound, only to see a group of unknown birds flying in the air in a herringbone shape, shuttling in the afterglow of the sunset
Time passed, the sun was setting, and the night was getting thicker.
......
When the ship arrived at the boundary of the city, the two warships that had been slowing down on the river quickly pulled up their sails and followed the Jiulong River boat on the left and right.
The two warships always maintained a distance of about 500 meters, neither too close nor too far away, and they should have a lot of experience in escorting.
Although it was already night at this time, fortunately, the moonlight was getting thicker, and the bright moonlight covered the river, which was bright enough for him to see the general appearance of the warship.
With a cursory glance, he could see something wrongββ although there was a gap in the guardrail around the ship where the guns were placed, there was no sign of the guns. And it was sparsely staffed, and it didn't look like it was prepared.
Where are all the guns on the ship? Dacheng, which is more prosperous than Liuli City, can't sell all its guns because of lack of money!
Could it be that this is the rule of the escort industry?
Bai Ye was a little puzzled, but he didn't think about it, he just ...... Recalling the change in Sun Yiwei's attitude, and then thinking of the strangeness on the warship at this time, made him feel uneasy.
At the beginning, he had a good impression of Sun Yiwei, and felt that Sun Yiwei was amiable, kind, empathetic, down-to-earth, and had no rich people or elders.
But after hearing about the Medicine King, his attitude towards Sun Yiwei changed.
At that time, Sun Yiwei's wisdom, calmness, and acting skills deeply shocked him.
Thanks to the extra discernment given by his superpowers, he could feel that all of Sun Yiwei's expressions and attitudes were deliberately shown, and his flaws were deliberately exposed, but he couldn't think of Sun Yiwei's purpose for doing so.
Why do you want to completely destroy the image you have worked so hard to build?
It is terrible to be able to pretend to be amiable and look like a good person when necessary, and to be able to fully interpret the cunning and the shadowy when necessary.
Whew~ I hope I'm thinking too much.
Sitting on the chaise longue and looking at the bright moon, Bai Ye began to worry a little about this voyage.
Maybe I shouldn't have accepted Sun Yiwei's ticket at that time, with my financial resources, I should be able to buy it at ten times the price.
......
The actual voyage took longer than anyone thought.
After three days of smooth driving, there was a sudden noise on the boat on the Kowloon River.
Bai Ye and the others, who were taking a nap, woke up from their dreams and hurriedly got up and dressed and walked onto the deck.
I saw a black shadow floating on the surface of the big river in front of me, and it seemed that they were all huge warships.
The distance was too far away for him to see clearly even with the purpose of the white night, and he could only barely see a vague, lumpy black phantom, which seemed to be the muzzle of artillery.
Many sailors gathered on the first deck and began to adjust their sails, as if trying to turn.
"One-two, pull!"
"One-two, pull!"
"One-two, pull!"
β......β
All the sailors have practiced martial arts for a long time, and almost all of them have reached the level of third-rate martial artists, but it is still very difficult to turn the wheel, and one by one the muscles are bulging, and their faces are red.
In fact, this is an infrequent operationββ which can be extremely difficult to maneuver when the sail is full, but it has the advantage of fast steering, which is most practical when you need to steer extremely fast in unexpected situations.
There were also sailors who threw powerful crossbows from the storage compartments on the second floor.
With a range of 700 meters, this powerful crossbow is extremely powerful, enough to penetrate ten people! The arrows it uses are almost the same as those of a spear, and it seems that the lethality is extraordinary.
Unfortunately, this weapon may be useful on land, but it is not so useful in water warfare on this great river, and the high winds and the rocking hull of the ship are very negative effects. And its penetrating power is not enough to shoot through the ship's deck guardrail, only to be driven into.
Bai Ye knew that something was wrong, but he still found a sailor and asked, "This brother, what's wrong?"
Seeing that it was the honored guest who inquired about this, the sailor who was carrying the fire bomb used by the trebuchet stopped.
"Oh, it's a bad thing, it's the first time I've seen this kind of battle. β
"What's wrong?" Bai Ye was puzzled. He knew that the boat in front of him was not good, but he didn't know who the other party was, and he didn't know the consequences. I just thought that if ββ could break the bank and avoid disaster, then I would just give more money.
In case of conflict, of course he can be safe and sound, and his life is worry-free, but you have to know that there are Mo Neng, Xu Xue, Han Ge, Medicine King, and Wang Luan on this ship.
"Those people are all murderous Jiangyang thieves! We've met before, but at most there are only three at the same time, but now look over there!" The sailor stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of his mouth, "Look over there! That's all there! Isn't it all Jiangyang thieves who came out together! It seems that ...... This time it's really more auspicious. β
Hearing that this sailor had met the Jiangyang thief and could still live to do this job, Bai Ye asked, "Based on your experience, how much money do they have to ask for to give up?"
"Hero, I know that you are a rich man, but now this situation is no longer a problem that money can solve, people are united like this, they must be ready to do great things!" At this point, the sailor lowered his voice, "My lord, it's not that I'm talkative, you see if there is any great big man on this ship, the river and ocean thieves have made this battle, and it must not be for money." β
After that, the sailor said no more, went on to work, and walked towards the trebuchet with a heavy fire bomb.
And Bai Ye suddenly froze in place, and a thought flashed through his mind.
