Location: Eagle's Beak Bay, Daishan Island.

Time: Evening of the 15th day after Operation Fortune Hunt.

Daishan Island, located in the northern part of the Zhoushan archipelago, is large in size but extremely inhospitable. Eagle's Beak Bay is located in the east of Daishan Island, facing the Pacific Ocean, and is named after a headland that resembles an eagle's beak.

In the barren Eagle's Beak Bay, there are 7 large and small Chinese boats stationed at the moment. Among them, there are two Fu ships that originally belonged to the Xie family, four sand fleets that crossed the forces, and the last one is naturally the Debang.

After the Debang robbed the ship that day, the 100 sailors on board were divided into three groups, first hastily threw the corpses into the sea, and then the fleet sailed back to Eagle's Beak Bay. After resting in Eagle's Beak Bay for half a month, the bandits waited for the sand boat transport team to come to connect.

"Second master, it's all right, it's good, it's hard!" Dressed in a blue training uniform, the chubby rotating commander of the fleet, Wang Xiaohui, was standing at the bow of the Debang at the moment, patting the second master's shoulder vigorously, and expressing his joy with the unique movements of the traverser.

...... These two lucky ships can be said to be sending carbon in the snow for the crossing forces that are currently rushing to transport people. Wang Xiaohui's fleet, this time back, the cabin was full of people again, and there was no place to load groceries into it. The raw silk, silk, and many miscellaneous goods in Suzhou and Hangzhou in the Fu ship are exactly the trade materials that are urgently needed by the ministers.

"Adults have won prizes. This battle was all due to the magic weapons of the upper realm, and the brothers contributed, but Chen Er did not dare to take credit. ”

"Haha, you're still modest, second master, isn't this your style?" Wang Xiaohui smiled and joked about Second Master Chen. To say that among the Ming people who have come into contact with the public, Chen Erye can be regarded as one of the most popular aborigines: exaggerated shape, bold personality, and straightforward style, the second master really conforms to the impression of many people on the ancient rivers and lakes, and can be called the spokesperson of a generation of heroes.

This is also the reason why the second master is so popular, and now the honorific title of "second master" has even become a simple nickname in the traversal.

However, today, the second master changed his style and seemed to have made up his mind to be modest: Comrade Ma Liu was pushed to the front in time. After introducing the merits of a donkey-faced comrade, the second master asked Ma Liu to carry the bullet casing and go to Commander Wang to change the magazine - this thing needs to be counted one by one, and it is not possible to have one less.

......

The handover action is very fast. The sand fleet arrived at Eagle's Beak Bay in the evening, and the Debang had already transferred some coarse salt from the Fu ship before this, and in addition, all two Fu ships, including cargo, had now been handed over to the Sand Flotilla to take over.

Not only did the Debang hand over the ship, but it also took some of its own men: a dozen young men who passed the examination were sent to the sand boats, and these people would in the future be trained as sailors, workers, or navy.

Night soon fell, and except for the two lucky boats in Eagle's Beak Bay and people carrying oil lamps to check the condition of the ships, the rest of the ships had quieted down.

On the largest sand boat in the harbor, Chen Huoding was sitting in the stern full of instruments, chatting with Wang Xiaohui after dinner.

"Here, I'll fill it for you." In the cabin with the glow of bright white solar lights, Wang Xiaohui picked his teeth and put a Wahaha bottle in front of Chen Huoding: "Save a little, the pepper production is small now, and it should be better in the second half of the year." ”

"Thank you, Brother Wang!" Second Master Chen was a little embarrassed at this time.

"They are all brothers in the same system, thank you for what? Don't forget, the Debang is now under the joint management of the Navy and the Intelligence Bureau, and you are also a member of our Navy. Wang Xiaohui took out a box of Heilanzhou at this time, and gave it to the second master with a little pain, seeing that the second master waved his hand, he quickly put away the cigarette box, only lit one for himself, and sucked it up.

"Have you had any difficulties lately? If you have one, just say it. ”

"It's all good, it's all good."

"Huh? How do you feel like you're wilting today? Wang Xiaohui finally found out that the second master's attitude was wrong today: he didn't have a loud voice since they met, and he didn't shout to play with guns and knives, but he was shy like a little girl?

"That's it...... I just want to watch some more movies. Chen Huoding said with a smile at this time.

"Shadow play? Hehe, it turned out that I wanted to watch the film, I said it earlier, it made it mysterious. Wang Xiaohui said this, got up and opened the notebook on the table, clicked the mouse, and turned the notebook screen: "That, it's all what you like, ten plates in a row, watch it slowly." ”

After finishing speaking, Wang Xiaohui patted Second Master Chen's shoulder, turned around and walked out of the hatch.

Chen Huoding began to watch the video intently.

...... Although it is not the first time to watch a "film", every time I sit in front of the screen, the images transmitted by the developed electronic audio-visual technology of later generations still deeply shock this 17th-century man.

A row of huge steel warships sailed on the rolling sea, and soldiers in white cardigans were like ants on the steel city. Immediately after that, the thick barrel shoots out the cannonball, the flames gush out at the muzzle, the camera follows the cannonball as it flies out, the distant city quickly expands in the screen, and the next moment, the cannonball explodes, the fire, the roar, the flying houses...... A huge crater left behind by the smoke and dust.

Chen Huoding knew that everything on the screen was true: this was a war between the vassal states of Kunlun Immortal Palace.

He also knew that all the traversing people, including Wang Xiaohui, were from these subject countries, and they were selected by the immortals and sent to the lower realm to assist Cao Zhenren.

The screen turned, and this time it was a land battle. Countless blue-glowing cannons roared, and dense soldiers began to charge in the shouts. And the heavy machine guns that Chen Huoding had coveted for a long time, but had never been able to shoot a single bullet, now filled the entire screen, and they spat out long tongues of fire, sweeping the heroic soldiers down in pieces.

Although he had known the ending for a long time, whenever he saw this scene, he still clenched his palm tightly.

The picture turned again.

This time it's not a war, it's a parade: a parade in the upper realm.

The second master has rich experience in reading exercises.

As a hereditary military household of Dinghaiwei, Chen Erye has become a member of the "Cao Army" of the guard since he was 15 years old. That is to say, during the days when the second master was in the guard, he still had to practice every three or five days, and occasionally encountered Shangguan Yuecao, and the second master would also go to the school with a spear and axe, and stand for a bell with a group of military households who were also dressed in tatters, so that he could receive a few rewards afterwards.

However, the parade in the fairy world completely subverted the concept of the second master.

Soldiers in beautiful clothes, shiny leather boots, neat lines of knives, silver spears and stabs were slashed together, and one by one the phalanxes walked majestically through the screen......

The second master knew that all the things he saw on the screen would eventually appear one by one in Daming in the future: Cao Zhenren and the heavenly and earthly demons who assisted him in the Nether Realm were starting from the small land of Dayuan Island, copying these terrible weapons and soldiers little by little, and when everything was ready one day, they would send troops to rob the country.

......

Chen Huoding watched the film that night until dawn.
