"Uncle Tiger, the Great Food Fleet is pressing up!"

As soon as the Great Food Fleet moved, Wang Yuanzheng, who was standing on the tall mast, immediately sensed that something was wrong, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he roared busily.

"Huh?"

When Lin Hu heard this, his body couldn't help but shake slightly, and he hurriedly took the monocular in his hand, held it up in front of his eyes, and carefully inspected the military formation of the Great Food Fleet.

Beat? It may not be able to beat, don't look at the large number of ships in the big food fleet, but most of them are small boats that can only sit dozens of people, and the weapons and equipment are also very poor, except for more than 20 medium-sized warships with large ballistas and a small number of trebuchets, the rest of the small ships are all playing on the side of the battle, and the ** battleship is not at the same level - ** These six battleships are not ordinary goods, each ship is divided into three layers, except for the bottom layer under the water surface is filled with fresh water, food and other sundries, the remaining two layers each have ten shooting holes, Behind each shooting hole is a medium-sized ballista, as for the front and rear decks, there is a large ballista, the effective range is as far as three hundred and fifty steps, one arrow past, but the hit, it can definitely tear the small battleship of the Great Food Fleet to pieces, if a few giant arrows hit, it is enough to destroy the medium-sized battleships of the Great Food Fleet, just with these six battleships, even if the Tang Fleet is invincible, self-protection is not a matter of concern, not to mention that the samurai on each ship are all good at water warfare, and they are not afraid of the landing tactics of the big cannibal at all, the problem is that the war is together, I'm afraid that this business won't be able to continue, and this is obviously not the result that Lin Hu is willing to face.

"Order, all ships are on guard in place, and no battle can be started without an order!"

Lin Hu's brain was running rapidly, and after a little muttering, he gave an order without looking back, but the telescope in his hand was never put down, he was silently estimating the distance between the two sides, once the Great Food Fleet really overwhelmed the middle line between the two sides, then Lin Hu didn't plan to talk to him very politely, he definitely talked about the rest!

"Stop, stop!"

Mu'a Via Aben, the governor of the port of Alexandria, whose sister was one of the many concubines of the Egyptian governor Yazid ibn Abu Abu, the eldest son of the current great food caliph Mu'awiya ibn Abi Sufyan, was one of the most favored ones. He was in a hurry, and regardless of whether his shouts could be heard on the other side of the fleet, he waved his arms vigorously and roared wildly.

On the foredeck of the flagship of the Great Food Fleet "Rose", a bearded general is standing on the bow of the ship surrounded by a large group of attendants, this person is the commander of the Great Food Fleet, Tari ibn Abi, the distant cousin of the current caliph, and the founder of the Great Food Fleet, ten years ago with the current caliph to conquer the Byzantine Empire, using the Byzantine shipyards to establish the first navy of the Great Food Empire, Fang Yicheng's army defeated the attack of a large Byzantine navy, and then repeatedly defeated the Byzantine fleet, He was a famous naval admiral on the Red Sea.

"Command: Stop moving forward and pick up that fat pig!"

Tari ibn Abi is known for his belligerence in the Red Sea, this time he was alarmed by the great momentum of the Tang fleet, and hastily led the whole army to intercept it, and he couldn't help but be a little annoyed. I'm going to wait until I understand the reason before I think about it.

Since Tari ibn Abi had already given the order, the subordinates did not dare to disobey it, and the whole fleet soon stopped at a distance of less than five hundred steps from the Tang fleet, and at this time, it was only a few dozen steps away from the middle line defined by Lin Hu.

"Commander Qiqi, it's Datang, this is the fleet from Datang! It's here to do business, Allah on board, so many ships, how much gold can it be worth, this is a big business, a big business......"

Mua Via Aben was obviously very excited, and as soon as he was brought to the foredeck of the "Rose", he immediately danced and shouted, which is not to blame for his gaffe, you must know that all the ships from the Tang Dynasty must be full of silk and porcelain and other valuable things, Mua Via Aben has been in charge of the port department for three years, and has received several Datang ships, but those are medium-sized cargo ships, and they all arrive alone, and I have never seen so many huge ships come together, not to mention, in terms of the boldness/strength of the Tang merchants, he Mua Via Aben can make a fortune from the boss just for the benefit fee, not to mention that once he gets some private goods and resells them, the money will be lost, just thinking about it is enough to make Mua Via Aben drool wildly.

"Enough!"

Tari ibn Abby had always looked down on Mu'a Via Aben, a guy who climbed to a high position by nepotism, and if he hadn't done so, he wouldn't have forcibly sent him to the Tang fleet to find out the truth, but when he heard that Mu'a Via Aben was babbling nonsense there as soon as he got on the ship, the nausea in his heart couldn't help but increase a little, and he waved his hand unceremoniously, broke off, and interrupted Mu'a Via Aben's nonsense.

"Ah, the Great Commander, the Lower Official, the Lower Official......"

Mu'a Via Aben's face turned ugly when Tari ibn Abi drank like this, and when he thought of the previous incident when he forced himself to find out the news himself, the anger in his heart couldn't help but increase a little, but he didn't have the courage to be mad in front of Tari ibn Abi, so he could only stutter stupidly.

"Start at the beginning, talk about it in detail!"

Tari ibn Abi, apparently disgusted by Mu'a Via Aben's cowardice, glanced impatiently and squeezed a word out between his teeth.

"Ah, yes, Grand Commander of the Enlightenment, this is how it ......"

Although Mu'a Via Aben was annoyed by Tari ibn Abi's rudeness, he didn't have the courage to force this murderous guy to carry it, so he could only laugh and elaborate on the situation of the negotiations with the Tang fleet.

"What? Not getting checked? It's so daring! ”

Hearing that the Tang fleet refused to accept the inspection of his own fleet, Tari ibn Abi's eyes immediately widened, and he roared angrily

"Ah, no, the Commander, it's not that they refuse to accept the inspection, but they just say that the soldiers can't get on the ship, but the officials of my port department can......"

Mu'a Wiya 'Abn was speaking vigorously when Leng Bu Ding was startled by the roar of Tari ibn Abi and hastened to explain.

"Fart! If he is a great Tang or a big Tang, when he arrives in Alexandria, he must obey the command of my empire, this is the will of Allah, how can he allow these infidels, come and raise the battle flag, and the Tang people will fight until he listens if they do not obey the order! ”

Tari ibn Abi had always been accustomed to running rampant on the Red Sea, and how could he accept the conditions proposed by the Tang fleet, let alone listen to Mu'a Wiya Aben's explanation, and gave the battle order with a roar.

"Commander, you can't do this, you can't go to war without the order of the Governor, and you can't go to war without permission, and you ...... the officials"

Mua Via Aben had already calculated that he should get enough benefits from the Tang fleet, and he didn't want to see a big war happen, not for the sake of the safety of the Tang fleet, but purely because once the Tang fleet was destroyed, all the benefits would go to Tari ibn Abi, and there could be nothing to do with him Mua Via Aben, besides, he was still on the ship at this time, and if there was a mistake in the naval battle, wouldn't it be over. Ibn Abi's jealousy made him speak out against it.

"Come on, send this steward off the ship!"

Although Tari ibn Abi was a distant cousin of the governor of Egypt, Yazid ibn Abu, and the beloved general of the current caliph, he and Yazid ibn Abu were not of the same faction, and their relationship with them was really ordinary.

"Tari, you two dogs, you can't die a good death, you wait, this governor will go to the governor to come and administer justice, you wait......"

Mu'a Via Aben did not expect Tari ibn Abi to turn his face when he said that he would turn his face, and he was so angry that he was angry, but he did not dare to mess around in front of Tari ibn Abi, until he was escorted to the boat of the port, and then he beat his chest and cursed, and while cursing and shouting, he ordered his men to row in the direction of the harbor quickly......

"Uncle Tiger, the Great Food Fleet is rushing up!"

The more than 100 warships of the Great Food Fleet rushed up one after another, and Wang Yuanzheng on the lookout immediately shouted and sounded the alarm.

"Order: All frigates immediately set sail, keep up with our ship, meet them, kill the thieves, and the rest of the ships gather to protect themselves!"

Lin Hu has always been paying attention to the every move of the Great Food Fleet, no need for Wang Yuanzheng to shout, he has already seen that the situation is wrong, he didn't dare to slack off a little, he waved his hand busily, and issued an order to prepare for war, and in an instant, the Tang Dynasty ships that were originally quietly moored immediately responded to the order, and the six frigates headed by the word "Wei" quickly raised their sails, quickly adjusted their formation, and put out a long snake formation, facing the swarming Great Food Fleet with the side side, and the flagship of the merchant fleet, "Shunyuan", was under the command of Wang Haibin, A dense formation was set up to defend itself, and a sea battle was on the verge of breaking out......
