Chapter 546: A House That Shines
With such a young age and such courage, the future is indeed promising.
It is indeed remarkable to take a military route.
The captain's admiration for Zhou Weihua became more and more heartfelt, after all, the young man was really powerful, and he was not soft in the face of pirates.
I didn't expect to have such a strong heart in such an immature young man.
"Report, comrade captain, there is really a map of the sea area in the cabin." Xu Hu came out of the pirate's cabin and handed Zhou Weihua a map of the sea area.
Zhou Weihua took the sea area map and looked at the sea area map through the light.
The sea map is made of sheepskin.
But where is the current location?
It's pitch black, and it's impossible to tell.
And there are a few islands nearby, one of which is marked with a skull.
"Captain, what does this skull mean?" Among them, some of the team members looked at the sheepskin sea map and asked directly.
"I don't know, it could be a pirate island, a base area." Although Zhou Weihua didn't know what the skull on the island meant, he could only guess now.
"Captain, how did these pirates find us?" The team member asked curiously.
"In fact, it is not difficult to find that we can hang searchlights on the sea, as long as we can see our searchlights in the nearby waters, and then come closer to us, everything is logical." Zhou Weihua looked at the sea map, and then said: "According to the distance from the skull to us, it should be about two hundred nautical miles, I think the pirates set off from here, and then wander in the open sea area, so from the time they found us to the present, I think it should be this distance." ”
"What do you mean, Captain?" The team members asked curiously.
"This skull is the base camp of the pirates, because from here to the discovery of us, I think the distance is not very far, according to Boss Du, the pirates occupy an island, I think the skull is the base." Zhou Weihua analyzed the map of the sheepskin sea area and confirmed that the skull represented the place of the pirate.
"And the nearby islands??" Others were more curious, because on the map of the sheepskin sea, there were several islands.
"These are probably desert islands, you can see that this skull is on the edge of the high seas, it is very close to these countries, if anything happens, the pirates on the island can take refuge in these countries by boat." Zhou Weihua pointed to the sheepskin sea map and said analytically.
"Well, I see." Only then did the others figure out what the picture of the sheepskin sea was about.
"Captain, can you calculate how long we have sailed from Shanghai to now, and how far we are located?" The team members are even more curious, after all, the captain is omnipotent, and it is estimated that he can calculate where they are.
"I'll explain that." Just when the team members asked Zhou Weihua, the figure of the captain appeared in front of everyone, and then took the sheepskin sea map and said.
Everyone is waiting.
"Captain, I'd like to hear about it." Zhou Weihua also wanted to know where the map of the sheepskin sea area where they were, after all, it was impossible to refer to it at night, and the current ships were not equipped with advanced navigation technology or even advanced map technology like those ships in later generations.
"We drove for a total of 21 hours, and each hour was about 50 kilometers, so we were driving more than 1,000 kilometers, and according to the scale on the map, we should be in this position." The captain pointed to a location on the map of the parchment area.
And right at the location that the captain was pointing to, there was an island about a few dozen miles away.
If you can see the island, it proves that the place calculated by the captain is accurate.
"Report, Captain, we found a huge black shadow in front of us, which looks like an island." At this time, Chen Dahai jumped down from the deck to report.
"Okay, got it." Zhou Weihua looked at the captain and said, "It seems that the position pointed by the captain is not wrong, our people found a huge black shadow in front, I think it should be the figure of this island." ”
The team members looked at the captain with wide eyes.
The captain's ability to calculate, as well as his ability to discriminate, is really amazing.
Sure enough, it was the captain, and he could immediately determine the position on the map of the sheepskin sea.
"Captain, according to the captain's position, our location is not very far from the skull, as long as we pass through this kind of island, we can reach it by sailing dozens of kilometers, are we going to visit the pirate's island?" One of the team members asked questions, after all, all the team members wanted to find a sense of existence on it.
"Our goal now is not to be pirates, but to find freighters and find the medicines we need to be able to move freely, otherwise we will continue to search even if we are adrift at sea until tomorrow." Zhou Weihua's goal is accurate, so that he can do the next thing.
"Captain, did you think the freighter would dock near the island?" The team member asked, confused.
"You're not impossible, we're all sailing in the sea anyway, captain, let's get closer to the island first, and if we don't find a freighter, we'll make a detour, anyway, we don't want to make a direct contact with the pirates now." Zhou Weihua asked the captain beside him.
"Of course, you can, but there may be quite a few reefs near the islands." The captain reminded.
"I know that now we can only be careful, we can slow down, even if the wounds to the reef in the bed are relatively light." Zhou Weihua said suggestively.
"Yes, everything is as you say." According to Zhou Weihua's words, the captain ordered the crew to reduce their speed and then sail towards the island.
......
A few hours later.
The sky is getting brighter.
"Captain, captain." At this moment, one of the team members shouted excitedly.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Weihua, who just wanted to squint, was woken up by the excited shouts of the team members. ,
"Captain, come and see what we've found." The team members were very excited to pull the captain.
"You'd better find out, or I'll knock your head off." Zhou Weihua's excited eyes from the team members were nothing more than seeing the island, did he still see people on the island?
Impossible.
If you don't live on the high seas, you're a pirate, because the high seas are the most pirates.
"Captain, what do you look at?" The team member said excitedly as he pointed in the direction of the island.
"I'll see." Zhou Weihua saw that there were lights on the other side of the island, and it was a glowing house in the past, so he quickly picked up the MK14 marksman rifle and put his eyes close to the scope.
In the scope, it was clear that the glowing house was none other than the freighter they were looking for.
"It's a freighter, it's a freighter." Zhou Weihua was also a little excited, after all, he had been looking for so long to find it, and it was fake not to be excited.
