Bu Zhongfu didn't say a word, and the alarm was sounded, and the sailors on 8154 heard the piercing siren, and hurriedly rushed out of the cabin to the weapons compartment to collect the weapons, and then rushed to their respective posts with rifles.

The terrible sound of the sirens also caused the people on the five-masted ship to jump, and the natives had never heard such a sound, thinking that there was a monster on the sea, so they hurriedly grabbed their weapons and rushed to their duty posts to look around. In order to save batteries and prevent the spread of technology, the people on the five-masted ship basically did not carry modern items except for pen and paper, and Gu Qingqian was only allowed to carry a signature pen to avoid writing with a troublesome brush. At this time, they also felt very strange when they heard the siren, but because they were about 100 meters away, shouting on the open sea could not spread so far, so they could only use a very primitive method of communication - flags. Fortunately, there were still a few crossers on the five-masted ship who were learning how to operate the sailboat, so a guy ran to the stern with two small flags, only to see him waving the flag to 8154 behind him for a while. After a while, a person also appeared on the 8154 foredeck behind, holding two signal flags, one red and one white, and also waved at this side. The people on the five-masted ship are boiling, the flag! The vast majority of people have never seen it, and many people hurriedly crowded to the stern of the boat to watch the excitement, and for a while almost squeezed the brothers who played the flag into the water.

"What do they say?" Someone eagerly asked the flag-beater, and the flag-playing brother squinted at him, did not speak, and continued to crackle for a burst of flags, followed by another burst of flags on the opposite side.

"Say what, what do you say?" The people next to him became more and more anxious, and they came up to ask. The guy didn't answer, and continued to play the flag with the other side.

About three minutes later, the flag bearer on the foredeck of 8154 went into the cockpit, only to see 8154 suddenly increase its horsepower, and suddenly rushed to a distance of 20 meters under the roar of diesel engines, and then the loudspeaker on the ship suddenly shouted. "Don't mess with the flag, I can't understand the flag of your army! There are unidentified ships three nautical miles to the southeast, get ready! ”

There was a sudden rush of chickens and dogs jumping on the five-masted ship, and the sailors hurried to their respective posts to find their weapons and strengthen their courage. The traversers began to check the Glock pistols they had received before departure, and at this time they found that most of the guns had not been sealed, and even many of the guns were stuffed with butter, so they had to find the gadgets that accompanied the guns and began to clean up the butter in the weapons.

"Holy, why is there so much butter in here? Or is it vulgarly wrapped in oiled paper, this is not NORINCO's, right? ”

"Probably not, it seems to say that it is produced in Hainan......"

"There is still an arsenal in Hainan?? I thought it was only available in Chongqing. ”

"Hainan's arsenal is mainly to make counterfeit and shoddy products for foreign countries."

"Counterfeiting?" One of the traversers sat on the deck disappointed, "How many kickbacks did these guys eat on Meow's Executive Committee?" Actually went to Myanmar and bought back a Chinese-made German pistol? Or did he meow it from the United States...... It's really the world's three biggest hooligans serving us! ”

"When did Germany and Burma become a rogue state? In addition, this gun is not bad, at least it is not made by Hualong, you see at least there is a gun number. If it is said that the weapons purchased by the Executive Committee are counterfeit and shoddy, it can be regarded as a great wrong. ”

"But seriously, the factories in Hainan are made of everything, M4, AK is not a problem, I heard that even Minimi and M240 are made, sometimes look at the photos of foreign conflicts and see that they are all American weapons, and when you turn it over, you can see that they are all madeinchina."

"Compared to rabbits, there are really few black."

"By the way, how far has the unknown ship come here?"

"Didn't you say three kilometers?"

"Three nautical miles! Almost six kilometers! ”

"A few American masters," this very awkward sentence suddenly interrupted the group of otaku who were cleaning up their guns, and everyone stopped what they were doing and turned their heads around. An indigenous sailor was looking at this side with a bamboo gun, "That old man is in charge?" Our captain asks the steward to come over for a moment. ”

"Even if you have to let someone from the Ministry of Trade take a look."

"Ministry of Trade? You didn't ask Xiao Gu to come over and take a look, did you? ”

"I'll go down." Gu Qingqian, who was on the side, stood up without saying a word, and her military boots crackled on the wooden deck and followed the sailors all the way rhythmically.

"Captain, old American...... Ah no, Mrs. America...... Oh...... The American lady is here...... "The sailor stammered for a while, and finally introduced Gu Qingqian's identity clearly."

The captain was a middle-aged man of thirty-five or sixteen, and he had wanted to call an American in charge to come and ask what had happened, but it turned out to be a beautiful woman, and he was speechless for a while.

"Hello Captain, I don't know what to call it?" Gu Qingqian habitually stretched out her right hand and walked over.

The captain was stunned for a moment, tentatively extending his right hand as cautiously as if he were trying to catch a snake that could bite at any moment. After Gu Qingqian came over and shook hands with him, the captain stammered, it turned out that he had been on the slipway just now, and he didn't hear the shout of the tweeter on 8154 just now, and asked a few sailors who heard it, and the result was that the answer to ask the three guys was completely different, what three miles in the southeast, three seas in the east or something, but he was confused, as an old fur seal, he knew that this must be the unit of measurement of the Americans, since he couldn't tell the difference, he didn't have to guess, the Americans were on their own boats, Just call and ask, but I didn't expect it to be a woman.

Gu Qingqian patted her chest with relief when she heard this, and replied with a smile: "Oh, just now I said that there are unknown ships in the sea three nautical miles to the southeast. But she never expected that this habitual little action would be so charming in the eyes of the natives that the captain almost burst into tears.

"Oh......" The captain was a captain after all, and before the other sailors could react, he came to his senses, "How far is three nautical miles?" ”

"I don't know about this, but I've heard that a nautical mile is about two kilometers."

"How far is that kilometer?"

"Kilometers?" Gu Qingqian was a little puzzled, but after thinking about it, she was immediately relieved, where did these natives go to understand the kilometer? The metric unit was proposed in 1670 by the bishop Mouton of St. Paul's Cathedral in Lyon, but it was not until 1790 that France began to enforce the use of the metric unit in 1795, and it was not until 1880 that it was officially listed by 17 countries. "A kilometer is a kilometer, more than two miles."

"What are the three nautical miles?" The captain immediately began to add up, but he still couldn't figure it out, so he had to look at the girl who had made him a little distracted.

"Three nautical miles is six kilometers, six kilometers is twelve miles, oh, if one mile of yours is more than four hundred meters, then it should be about fifteen miles." Gu Qingqian counted casually while looking at the things in the cabin. This is the cabin where the captain usually directs the crew! There was a mess everywhere, mushrooms had grown on one side of the deck, and garbage was everywhere in the cabin. There was a chart on the table, but she was not a professional and could not read the chart drawn in this ancient way, and from the yellowed paper of the chart, it looked like it was a little old.

"How long will it take for us to get to the port of Champa?" Gu Qingqian was very anxious about when she would be able to reach the trade port and show her strength, so she couldn't help but ask again.

"We?" The captain hurriedly approached the chart and pretended to look at it, "It is estimated that it will take another hour." ”

Gu Qingqian nodded hurriedly, turned around and ran onto the deck, at this time, the crew in the cabin breathed a sigh of relief, causing the captain to yell, "What are you guys doing?" When did you come around? Get to work! ”

"Head, isn't it more than ten miles to go directly to the city? How did they know that there would be a ship so far away? Could it be that these Americans have witchcraft? ”

"It's hard to say," the captain shook his head, "these Americans seem to have a wicked spirit, you see that their ships have no sails or oars, they can run as fast as they want at sea, and they don't have to care about the direction of the wind in naval battles." In addition, on the day they rescued us from the pirates, they also came to intercept us, and seeing that they were still building a city on the beach, they would definitely not send any reconnaissance ships, even if they were, they would not be able to detect us from such a distance. There must be some way for them to perceive the movement of the ship from a distance of tens of miles. ”

"Could it be that they are protected by Mazu Niangniang?"

The captain thought for a moment, "I said that if we meet the Americans in the future, we should try to be polite to them, just look at their weapons, and have this iron ship that can rampage on the sea at will, not to mention the mountain-like iron ship in the port of Oriental Harbor, I am afraid that they will have the final say on this sea in the future." ”

"There is an island in the port of Champa Harbor, and there is a tower ten feet high on the island, which guides ships into the port every night with the light of a roaring fire, and there are special people with excellent eyesight on the tower who are on duty every day to prevent pirates from entering the port. There are two Hongyi bronze cannons on the side of the harbor, which are usually used to deter the ships and sailors in the harbor, and this kind of cannon is also the premier militaristic weapon in the Champa country, and it is said that it can hit three miles away, and can penetrate the two-inch thick shipboard, which is second to none on the surface of the North Sea. Zhancheng Port covers an area of more than 15 square kilometers, the city center is built up to six meters of the city wall, the wall is three square kilometers of administrative districts, the dignitaries and nobles all live in the city wall, outside the wall is the residence of farmers and merchants, the general ships enter the port are measured and taxed by the tax officer according to the goods first, and then can be moored at the wharf, and can leave the port after the transaction is declared to the tax officer. Ruan Qingshan is an old maritime merchant who has been in and out of Zhancheng Port, Gu Qingqian quickly poured beans into a bamboo tube and introduced it in detail.

"So where do I go if I need to buy supplies?" Gu Qingqian's biggest concern at this time is the procurement of raw materials and grain. "Of course, there are also over-the-counter medicines, where do they go to sell them?"
