0235 Pursuit
Liu Pei was relieved when he heard this, and said: "That's it, you won't be able to read too much information if you are given too much information at one time." You study the rules of the sea ship first, and give me the rest of the information first. In addition, this information is important and cannot be accessed by outsiders. You still have to give the order to die, and we can't talk to outsiders about anything inside our navy. This point should be strictly constrained. ”
Liu Pei is afraid that his information will be leaked. You must know that these materials have been summarized over a period of hundreds of years. If it is acquired by the Westerners, their already powerful navy will develop by leaps and bounds. This is absolutely unacceptable to Liu Pei.
At the same time, he is going to take these materials back and destroy them. Anyway, he still has a computer version of these materials. Just wait until you're done editing it on your computer and then reprint it. When the time comes, choose someone to be a teacher and learn before the sailors get on the ship, so that the progress will be faster!
In the ensuing time, Liu Pei also observed the exercises of the family members such as cannon shooting, sail raising and control, and damage management. I have to say that this first batch of family members has grown up. What is needed now is expansion. Therefore, Liu Pei secretly made a decision, and this group of newly recruited family members will assign a group of smart and clever people with strong learning ability to the navy for training. Although Liu Pei does not have a spare boat on hand, he must make sure that people wait for the ship, and he can't let the boat wait for people.
Liu Pei told Wu Yizhou about this idea, and he agreed. After all, everyone wants to have more power and power in their hands. The two men also discussed shipbuilding. It's a pity that both of them are at a loss. In the end, Liu Pei could only go to the south to find a way to find shipbuilding craftsmen.
Liu Pei wandered the sea for a few days, reviewing the results of the family's training. I think their training is very effective. And God is also very face-saving, there is not much wind and waves. So Liu Pei also avoided being seen vomiting, and he was relieved.
According to the plan, they will return in two days. So the people on the boat are very excited, and even the afterglow of the sunset is so beautiful! Just as Liu Pei was enjoying the sunset over the sea, suddenly the lookout sailor on the mast shouted: "There are ships!" ”
Everyone looked up at the sailor on the mast and saw that his hand was pointing to the east. Everyone looked to the east, but found nothing. Originally, there was no watchtower on a Chinese sailing ship. But it was forcibly installed at Liu Pei's request. After all, if the enemy is discovered on the sea, you can take the lead. They were also equipped with high-powered telescopes with mounts, which allowed them to see farther than anyone else.
Wu Yizhou shouted: "Can you see what kind of ship it is?" ”
The sailor shouted: "It seems to be the same ship as us!" But like an empty ship, the ship is much higher than the sea! ”
Wu Yizhou whispered to Liu Pei: "It may be a pirate!" At sea, only pirates are empty. ”
Liu Pei nodded in understanding. Sailing is not an easy task. In order to maximize profits, merchants will always fill their ships very full. If they weren't worried about wrecking, they would be able to load the cargo on deck and level with the sea! Pirates, on the other hand, will not load cargo in order to catch up with the cargo ship, so they can run fast.
Wu Yizhou then asked, "Did they find us?" Where to go"
The sailors shouted: "Their course is southeast." Didn't find us, the sun was setting behind us, he couldn't see us"
Wu Yizhou asked, "Head of the family, what should I do?" To chase or not to chase? ”
Liu Pei asked, "How did you deal with this situation before?" ”
Wu Yizhou said: "In the past, when we didn't train well, we didn't dare to go to the sea at all, so we couldn't touch any ships at all. Later, we couldn't go far to the sea, and when we saw a ship from a distance, we avoided it. After all, everyone was not familiar with naval warfare at that time, and they were afraid that something would go wrong. ”
Liu Pei said: "Then do you think you can beat them now?" ”
Wu Yizhou said categorically: "Definitely can!" ”
Liu Pei waved his hand vigorously and said, "Then what are you hesitating about?" Chase! If only we could snatch the boat! Then we'll have two ships. ”
Wu Yizhou's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then he went out again, and said, "Don't forget it!" You're still on the boat, it's too dangerous! ”
Liu Pei said loudly: "What are you worried about? How can there be so much danger! With me, there is still one more strength! Catch up! ”
Wu Yizhou had no choice but to give the order to turn and chase after the boat. Liu Pei felt that what he said was right, don't forget that he still has two pistols hanging under his armpits! These two pistols can be an invincible weapon of great destruction once used in broadside combat.
Liu Pei took the telescope and observed for a while, and when he put down the telescope, he found that everyone was unguarded, and they were all very relaxed. He asked in a low voice, "Why aren't you on guard?" ”
Wu Yizhou said in a low voice: "It looks like the two ships are very close on the sea, but they are actually very far away!" We can't catch up today. Then it's better to fall down on them from a distance first, and then we can speed up to catch up at night. By dawn tomorrow, we'll be catching up! ”
So the Zhenyuan quietly crashed onto the ship. After the sun set in the sea, Wu Yizhou ordered to start accelerating, and at the same time arranged for the people who took turns to watch out, and they must keep an eye on the ship. The ship had no idea that it was being targeted, and it was glamorously lit at night. This made him very clear in the night. How did he know that there was a light-controlled ship behind them that was catching up with them.
At night, Liu Peimei slept beautifully, and then was woken up. Wu Yizhou said: "Family master, the sky will soon dawn, and you have to prepare." ”
Liu Pei immediately got up and went to the deck, only to find that the two ships were very close. The lights on the opposite boat are clearly visible. At this time, Wu Yizhou shouted loudly: "All pay attention, Plan No. 4!" ”
When the crew heard the order, they got busy in the dark. Liu Pei asked, "What is Plan No. 4?" ”
Wu Yizhou said with a smile: "Didn't the head of the family say that we should make a plan to deal with various situations? So we made a lot of plans. This plan number four is to pretend to be invincible. Flee in a hurry and lure the enemy into chasing after the plan to counterattack. ”
Liu Pei nodded and said, "So that's the case, it's good!" I understand! ”
At this moment, the sun showed a trace on the surface of the sea, and this trace illuminated the whole sea! Heaven and earth instantly brightened! It wasn't long before the lookout on the mast shouted, "They have found us!" ”
After shouting, he put away his binoculars and slid down the mast. This telescope is a treasure, and it can't be broken by the other party! This is Wu Yizhou said: "Master of the family, you have to hide, don't let them find out that there are many people on our ship." Otherwise, they won't take the bait! ”
Liu Pei glanced at the deck, and sure enough, most of the family members were hiding. They either went into the cabin or hid behind the side of the ship. Liu Pei followed everyone's example and hid behind the side of the boat and looked through a telescope. Sure enough, the ship did find Liu Pei and them. Many people got out of the cabin and pointed in the direction of Liu Pei.
At this time, Wu Yizhou shouted loudly: "All pay attention, turn around!" ”
The only remaining sailors on the board quickly got busy and began to adjust the sailing rudders. The Zhenyuan began to turn slowly. The ship on the other side hadn't reacted yet, but as soon as they saw that Liu Pei's boat had actually turned around, their courage immediately became stronger, and they also began to quickly turn around. The people on the boat were jumping around, apparently thinking they had encountered a fat sheep and were yelling.
Liu Pei took back the binoculars and sneered, saying, "It seems that they have been fooled." And certainly pirates. Otherwise, they wouldn't have turned around and chased after them right away. ”
Wu Yizhou said: "It is estimated that we will start fighting in a while." Master, you'd better go into the cabin first! It's too dangerous on deck! ”
Liu Pei didn't want to let himself die in an accident, so he nodded and said, "Okay." I'll go back to the cabin. By the way, put on the equipment, and I'll come up when the war starts. ”
Although Liu Pei didn't make any preparations when he got on the boat this time, he always had to wear the bulletproof vest he prepared for himself. There are many cold weapons used on land, and a stab-proof vest is enough. Firearms are used in large quantities at sea, so Liu Pei also prepared one of the most expensive bulletproof vests for himself. And Liu Pei also bought a pair of large red bulletproof glasses. It is said to be able to block shrapnel from grenades. In case of a fight, you won't get scratched on the eyes when the sawdust flies.
