The other party looked away, so he came to rob us?!

Does this excuse make sense? Hong Xiguan was uncertain and had no bottom in his heart. ￣︶︺

What's even more ridiculous is that the bow of the Kaohsiung No. 78 ship entered the water, it was not necessary to sink the pirate ship at all, and when it drove over, the pirates jumped into the sea one after another, and it hit an empty ship.

Yan Zhang and Hao Sizhong, the two deputy envoys, went to the flagship, and Hao Sizhong had the responsibility of managing the military discipline of the entire formation, and immediately reprimanded Yan Zhang for doing this: "Do you want to use to sink the pirate ship?" Is it a blowtorch in your hand, or is your cannon plugging you with sleepwalking at night? ”

Yan Zhang defended: "If I don't drive over, the pirates won't jump into the sea......"

In other words, it was justified, Hao Sizhong said coldly: "Don't make excuses, I want to review the logbook, remember today's battle, and sign by the four chiefs, in duplicate!" (The four chiefs refer to Hong Xiguan, Kaustit, Yan Zhang, and Hao Sizhong)

"Hey, if you want to be so strict, you do this, I thought I was a pirate......" Yan Zhang said dissatisfiedly.

"You are for your own good, as a relative of the emperor, the leader has higher requirements for you!" Hao Sizhong said.

The two tugged and pulled, and Hong Xiguan said impatiently: "How is the situation of the seventy-eighth ship?" ”

"There was water in the bow, there was a crack, it was blocked, and it was not a problem to drive, but there was still water infiltration." Yan Zhang said angrily: "It's really unlucky, we have just maintained it, and it was so lightly bumped." ”

He can't make excuses to say that the quality of the battleship is a problem, after all, when it is launched, it has undergone strict acceptance, and it belongs to the kind of acceptance that the shipyard does not build well, and the relevant personnel have to dig coal.

When they stopped in Suez City on the Red Sea, all the ships were towed ashore, and the bottom of the ship was maintained and the hull was inspected and repaired, and the condition was still good.

"The world is unpredictable, so be cautious in life, you actually forgot the words of the leader, don't go to the place where you can send guns! You have to remember this lesson! Hong Xiguan shouted.

Yan Zhang had no choice but to admit it.

Kostet, who was next to him, said categorically: "Find the nearest port, dock, and completely repair the ship before leaving!" ”

He has experienced the storms of three continents, Europe, Africa and Asia, and knows that a crack can sink a ship, and he must not be careless.

Everyone listened to him, and sailed close to the shore, looking for the harbor with their eyes wide open.

There are repair materials on board, but the help of the harbor is greater for the seagoing ships, at least the materials on board can be saved, otherwise God knows what it means to fall into a place where the heavens should not call the earth, and then the materials on the ship will be precious, which is why the seagoing ships are always equipped with all kinds of supplies and fresh water if it is possible.

According to the chart, they actually found a large port: Mogadishu!

Towering mosque minarets, rows of old Arab citadels, and a Catholic church stand prominently on the shore, surrounded by Fort Fortresses of the Red Hair Fan.

It is a city with a predominantly white hue that gradually reveals its clear outline in the morning light: Mogadishu.

Mogadishu, known as Mugudushu in ancient China, is a seaport city on the coast of the Indian Ocean in the north of East Africa, located in the southeast of the border, bordering the west coast of the Indian Ocean, located in the Shabelle River Basin, although it is only 200 kilometers away from the equator, but the climate is cool, the forest is verdant, and it is a scenic spot in Somalia.

It is also called Camel City, and when the Southeast Army came ashore, it was found that there were more camels than people here.

It is also a historic city, and Somalia has been known as the "land of myrrh" since ancient times, and was once the place with the most production of myrrh and the longest history. More than 1,000 years ago, an Egyptian nobleman named Khannu was sent by the Egyptian pharaoh to Mogadishu to buy spices, and Greek and Persian merchants and Chinese navigators followed. In the 12th and 13th centuries, Mogadishu flourished as the world's first* and myrrh market and a trading center for ivory and leather, and just over 100 years ago, Zheng He, the Ming Dynasty's Three Treasures, made two voyages to Mogadishu.

In parallel space, Somali pirates have long been famous, and Mogadishu has become a city full of lawless horrors, but at this time, Mogadishu is a first-class African port, flourishing all over Africa.

The port brought together ships from all over the world, reporter Yao Wenqi and naturalist Tao Yuanzao went ashore with the crowd, and saw the endless flow of pedestrians on the streets, all kinds of people, but there were no Chinese, and the leader of Gaine had something to say, and the Chinese ships were not allowed to cross the Red Sea, at most to the Sinai Peninsula.

The leader loves the people, but his responsibilities are limited, and he is unable to do it, and Africa is not lively, so there are few Chinese people in Africa.

Mogadishu was not immune to the Portuguese invasion in the 16th century, when the Portuguese established their rule, but the Portuguese were few and the Arabs and Turks came to dominate the country, and their religion spread so quickly that even the third brother had a place.

The interior of Mogadishu is dominated by animal husbandry, producing mineral resources and exporting spices, wood, ivory, shells, slaves and iron ore to other regions, where the old three pieces of silk, porcelain and tea, as well as the new three items of sugar, tobacco and liquor, from the East are sold very well.

Yao Tao and the two wandered through the streets and bazaars, and saw a large slave auction house, where a large number of wild blacks were escorted naked to high stands, and the slave owners showed the buyers their teeth (those who were not worn out were young) and muscular strength as if they were showing animals, and the red fruits were auctioned off!

The smell of the spice market is strong, and half of the city is immersed in the smell of spices. Speaking of Mogadishu, it is a big city in Africa, and Yao Wenqi and Tao Yuanzao have a lot of fun, but the non-commissioned officer who protects them urges them to go back.

The military order was like a mountain, saying that they would have as much time as their entourage, and the officers who went ashore completed the transaction and immediately turned back.

As a last resort, Yao Tao and the two could only return to the flagship docked in the harbor, and later, they were glad that they were obedient.

"There is a simple dock in the port, and we paid a high price to get rid of the other maintenance ship that occupies the position, and tomorrow the seventy-eighth ship will be docked for repairs! We have also contacted the supplies of food and water, which will be delivered tomorrow. ”

"We also visited the Portuguese in the city, they

After listening to the report, Hong Xiguan expressed his satisfaction, and immediately ordered the formation to implement personnel control, and it was not allowed to go ashore easily without the approval of the leaders at the highest level.

He was very cautious,

The next day, everything went according to plan, and the Kaohsiung No. 78 ship entered the dock for repairs, which was a simple dock that had built a dam to hold back the sea, and only one side had no edge, and the other three sides were empty.

Thousands of slaves dragged the cruiser into the dock, then closed the gates to drain the water for repairs.

When it was dragged to the shore and looked closely, the crack was bigger than the previous inspection, and a gap was actually found in the other cabin, fortunately, it was found early, otherwise in the wind and waves,

Yan Zhang said stupidly: "Special m, Uncle Hei's bones are hard, and the boat is also hard!" ”

Not only are the bones hard, but the hands are also strong, after three days, the pirate leader Jaduri, who stayed in the bilge of the supply ship Yasha XII, gritted his teeth, pulled an iron chain with both hands, and pulled it violently.

With a bang, the chain broke!

There was no one in the bilge, and the Chinese on the upper deck did not hear it.

At the same time, a Chinese pastoral dog that stayed in the gun deck cabin heard the abnormal sound and jumped up alertly!

The dog runs to the owner!
