Chapter 477: Sheliao Island

Zhang Huan put his hands behind his back, and his hand holding the knife was trembling slightly. At that moment just now, he realized that the captain's rule, or the pirate rule, that Allen had mentioned many times, was more reasonable.

One of the most important is that as a captain, you must have the awareness to ask your subordinates to send them at any time, and the person who can't do it is not a qualified captain.

In fact, the moment Jiang Yong fell into the sea, Zhang Huan should have made a decision. That would be a good thing for both the ship and the sailors, if it weren't for Jiang Yong taking the initiative to give up his life, Zhang Huan didn't know if he would have the courage to cut the cable.

At this time, the first mate Ma Le stood up and said to the sailors: "Jiang Yong is good?" At the last moment, in order not to disturb his brother, he loosened the rope himself. I, Ma Le, can shout and be proud to have such a brother, we should cheer up and defeat the storm! ”

The sailors were stunned, they always thought that the captain had given up on Jiang Yong. was told the truth by Ma Ledao, and everyone lowered their heads.

"The storm hasn't passed yet, is there nothing to do? Why don't you go and check the damage to the battleship right away, and then be lazy and hang you all on the mast! Zhang Huan's eyes narrowed and roared at the sailors.

The sailors, who had been depressed just a moment ago, all ran away at once, and went around to check the damage to the battleship. Even the first mate, Ma Le, ran to the cockpit to inspect the ship.

When Zhang Huan saw the disappeared sailor, he sat on the ground with his ass. After all, he himself is just a teenager, and the toughness just now is completely hard.

Only by letting the water hand rise can we forget the sadness of losing the robe. And how could he not be one of the griefs himself? Only when there is no one around, will his tears fall.

A short time later one of the sailors came running back and said, "Report to the captain that nothing has happened in the bow except for a slight leak, and the sailors are plugging the leak and pumping the water!" ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Huan nodded, and the sailor left quickly.

"Report to the captain! There was no damage to the mainmast, except for the sail and the lookout, which were blown off, as long as the storm stopped! ”

"Report to the captain! The cabin is intact, and there are no casualties among the army brothers except for seasickness! ”

……

It wasn't until Ma Le returned that the bad news came back, and he said to Zhang Huan: "Report to the captain!" The rudder was damaged, and only a small area of steering was possible. We had to find a place to moor, and it would take a day to fix the rudder. ”

This is terrible news, and the fleet is not out of the storm yet. There is a possibility of being swept into the storm again at any time, and the damage to the rudder at this moment has cast a haze over everyone's hearts.

The falling sails of the killer whale warship slowed down, allowing a dozen or so lucky ships to follow. They followed Zhang Huan's killer whale battleship on the edge of the storm, carefully avoiding the central area of the storm.

The damage to the rudder made it impossible for the Orca to navigate the edge of the storm with agility and had to get out of the storm as quickly as possible.

Zhang Huai led more than a dozen Fu boats into the unknown sea, getting farther and farther away from the direction of Jilong Harbor.

Zheng Yiguan parked the fleet at a day's journey from Chicken Coop Bay, which was the final assembly point agreed by the fleet. Once a ship is single, it has to assemble at this coordinate point, and now there are already sea ships coming to converge one after another.

Looking at the ships arriving one after another, Zheng Yiguan's heart became colder and colder. The killer whale battleship piloted by Zhang Huan did not arrive, and there were seventeen lucky ships missing.

He doesn't care about those lucky boats, Zhang Huan is a talent cultivated by the Changxing Army, and he is the righteous son of the handsome, he lost it before he arrived at the chicken coop, how to explain to the handsome when he goes back.

There were also five hundred members of the death brigade on those lucky ships, these people were good at performing tasks, and now they were all lost, which made Zheng Yiguan feel very troublesome.

"Let's wait a day! If it hasn't arrived, let's go to the chicken coop. Lay down there and slowly look for Zhang Huan's whereabouts! Wu Shuang said behind Zheng Yiguan.

He was also very depressed, and before the war started, his deputy Tao Lei lost contact with Zhang Huan. There is no more death brigade to attack the fortifications, which makes him very passive with only 1,000 troops.

In the morning at Jonlong Bay, the sun shines on this natural harbor, sparkling on the sea.

Three Galen warships and eight armed merchant ships were moored side by side in a small harbor in the interior of Chicken Coop Bay, a harbor that could block all the wind and waves in the sea.

This makes Jonlong Bay an excellent harbor, and there is also a community liao island at the entrance of the harbor. At the southern end of the island, a triangular fortress was built on the mountain, and above the fortress was the first stronghold of the Gan Wax people on Taiyuan Island ~ the city of San Salvador.

The three hundred garrisons here could blockade the entire Chicken Coop Bay with thirty guns, so the warships in the harbor were resting with confidence.

Since the Ganlasi people were not satisfied with controlling only a few indigenous tribes near Jilong Bay, they wanted to control the northern part of Taiyuan Island in their hands.

Therefore, taking advantage of the arrival of the American silver convoy and the abundant number of warships, not only did they bring supplies, but they also had to go deep into the interior of Taiyuan Island along the Tamsui River, and strive to find a better place to build the city.

The nine Galen ships in the harbor were the pioneers who arrived the day before yesterday, which made the number of ships in Jilong Bay, which had only one warship and one armed merchant ship.

They also encountered a storm at sea, and thankfully, the Dry Wax people took refuge in Chicken Coop Bay in time. The harbor in the harbor of Sheliao Island and the harbor completely kept the storm out, and the ships were unharmed except by getting wet.

It was only after the personnel had been on the ship for a long time and needed to be repaired, so the Governor of Ganlasi Taiyuan Island, Waldes, ordered the battleship and sailors to rest for three days before heading towards the Tamsui River.

During this time, they had to take advantage of the abundance of troops to attack the two indigenous tribes that had been refusing to give in.

The dry silk people, who had rested for a day, regained their spirits and assembled under the leadership of their officers. Today they are going into the jungle to destroy a large tribe.

The line of three hundred musketeers was loose, and Hagrid frowned but could do nothing. These people are not regular troops, they are all villains composed of people who can't get along in Europe.

It is simply impossible for such a soldier to maintain military discipline, and Hager would rather believe that it is more likely that the sow will go up the tree.

The distance they need to walk today is not close, and they must act quickly, otherwise it will be very dangerous to spend the night in the jungle.

With the army of villains, Hagrid stepped into the dense forest behind Chicken Coop Bay. There was a large tribe of hundreds of people waiting for him to conquer, and the thought of leading his men and horses to slaughter as much as he could, Hagrid's blood boiled.

Not long after they had burrowed into the jungle, a large fleet arrived outside Chicken Coop Bay. More than 100 sea-going ships surrounded the island, including nine tall Galen ships, aiming their broadside guns at the city of San Salvador.
