Chapter 005: Hiding from the sky and crossing the sea
"Remember to send a boat back regularly to report safety, don't be polite to your Uncle Mai, ask him for anything you lack, if he doesn't give you, he will beat the sea and the big river to ensure that it works......" When his fleet finished replenishing and the two fleets were about to part ways, Hong Tao gave his daughter and son-in-law another move, which was still a ruthless move. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 Now Martini has taken over the chairmanship of the Spring Alliance Security Council, replacing Hong Tao and Luo Meimei, and is in full charge of the development of the entire alliance. Hong Tao has a lot of experience in how to deal with this black fat man, and he is willing to share it with his daughter and son-in-law.
"How many days are left to get home?" Since the separation of the supply fleet from Luo Meimei, Wen Nan and Luo Youde would ask Hong Tao this question several times a day, even in a state of severe seasickness, the two of them did not forget this question.
"Go out on the deck and bask in the sun, eat and drink more, look at the top of the mast, don't look at the sea, you won't be so dizzy. It's true that I take good care of your body, I'm the most annoying to serve the sick, and if you two are always half-dead, I'll prepare you for the water ritual. "Without the drag of the supply fleet, the speed of the expeditionary fleet, which is composed entirely of Virginia-class warships, has increased significantly, and with the fact that it is familiar with the Pacific currents and monsoons, the distance traveled per day has nearly doubled. But no matter how fast it is, it is impossible to exceed the average speed of ten knots, which is the limit of a sailing ship's long voyage. The sailors must not be allowed to rush desperately day and night, so that when they reach their destination, they will all be tired and lie down.
"I'm a little sorry now, it's better to stay on Midway Island with the Americas and the salamanders, build a big ship like the Sea King, and wait for you to smooth the Great Song and I will go back in the big ship, so I don't have to suffer so much." Luo Youde has been busy all these years, his physical fitness is good, plus he was soaked in the sea all day long when he was young, the symptoms of seasickness are milder than Wen Nan, and he has the physical strength to fight with Hong Tao.
"Thinking beautifully, can I keep you with my daughter and let her be angry with your father-in-law? Dream of it, I haven't enjoyed my daughter's service, so don't think about it unless I'm dead! If it weren't for Wen Nan's body, Hong Tao would have immediately ordered the fleet to start a sea exercise, raise the speed to the highest speed, and couldn't help but turn around, fainting to death this profiteer who was getting older and more handsome than himself, so that he would still be in the mood to cough.
"It's hard to say, no matter how weak the Great Song Dynasty is, it's not easy to run into someone's palace and stew the emperor's ministers with a thousand people like you. The current Great Song Water Master is not the waste of the past, how to enter the Qiantang River unconsciously is a big problem, maybe you may really kill me and Lao Wen. Luo Youde felt that arguing with Hong Tao was distracting, and the symptoms of seasickness were a little lighter. Then let's continue, there are many topics, and we can't finish chatting all the way.
"Cut...... As far as their broken ship is concerned, they dare to be called sailors. Do you think I'm going to joke with my life when my mind is hot? It's a shame that you've worked with me for so many years and don't know me at all...... ......"Idle is idle, Luo Youde's worries happen to be the most proud of him, Hong Tao plans to educate this handsome old guy well, let him know the gap between the idol faction and the powerful faction."
"Then you're still hiding something from us! Lao Wen, when he asks for us in the future, remember to keep a hand, and by the way, toss him again, which can be regarded as revenge for the suffering along the way. Wen Xiaoqi is not a thing, what is this called a broken ship, there is no moment when it is not shaking! "Luo Youde can't think of any good way for Hong Tao, this guy has started the layout years in advance when he calculates people, and no one has the brain to remember the details of everything in the past few years.
"Alas...... Brother Hong is already very considerate, and the speed of the boat has not been mentioned as the highest. If you want to torture people, or your precious son is the most hateful, when he took me to the Leeward Islands for a meeting, the whole boat was jumping on the crest of the waves, and I was already an ancestor who could get off the ship alive. Wen Nan listened to Hong Tao's words, lying on the recliner and looking at the sky, not looking at the sea, the feeling of seasickness seemed to be really relieved. At this time, he definitely couldn't follow Luo Youde to say bad things about Hong Tao, and he had to help Hong Tao fight back against Luo Youde.
“…… America did the same at his command! I said you two are going to gang up to bully me, right? Let's not talk about this, and continue to talk about him taking the two of us to death. Lao Wen, you have also been to Lin'an many times, do you think it is feasible to unconsciously take so many warships into the Qiantang River to raid the imperial city? Luo Youde can see that he is now in an isolated position, and Wen Nan, a soft bone, has rebelled. Therefore, you can't make personal attacks on Hong Tao anymore, so you can't take advantage of yourself, and it's more appropriate to be reasonable.
"Actually, we are not the people who are most familiar with Lin'an and Qiantang River...... "Wen Nanchong Luo Youde sighed behind him.
"Who? He! How many times has he been to Lin'an, can it be more than a slap? Luo Youde didn't look back, he knew that it was Hong Tao standing behind him, and he was very disdainful.
"It's not him, it's the ...... next to him" Wen Nan wanted to get up and point to Luo Youde, but as soon as he lifted half of his body, he saw the sea again, and his stomach immediately began to churn, and he didn't even say the second half of a sentence, so he quickly lay back and continued to look up at the sky.
Next to him...... Who is it? There was no one next to him, they were all sailors......" Luo Youde looked back and looked at it carefully this time, but he still didn't understand what Wen Nan meant.
"Lao Wen, you can't hint at stupid people, you have to say it clearly. Come, Captain Wu, introduce this fool to yourself and your brothers, lest he always think that I am taking him back to be cannon fodder. Hong Tao had been trolling with a string of whale meat tethered to a cable on the side of the boat, and he was going to get a bluefin tuna to get over it, but his ears were not idle, and when he heard that there was an opportunity to demean people, he immediately interjected.
"I've seen Luo Shen's envoy ......" The captain on Hong Tao's flagship is Wu Yong, the head of the Great Song Dynasty. He had taken the rest of his brothers from Port Calamba to Cité Soleil, and had been training on Virginia-class battleships as Hong Tao had ordered.
To go back to the Great Song Dynasty is to go home, and none of him and his brothers objected, and they all raised their hands and feet in favor. As for going back to raid Lin'an City, they didn't know much about it before they got on the ship, but now that they know about it, they don't think there's anything wrong with it. In their eyes, whether Hong Tao was the emperor or the Zhao family was the emperor, the Great Song Dynasty was their hometown, and relatively speaking, they preferred the former to manage the country.
"Don't be a god, where do I look like a god? Let's call me Boss Luo, it sounds kind. Since we are going back to the Great Song Dynasty, we will still follow the rules of the Great Song Dynasty. "Luo Youde didn't know this Captain Wu, and he didn't remember who he was after watching it for a long time. But as soon as the other party opened his mouth, he knew that this captain was from the Song Dynasty or from the Song Dynasty in the Jiangnan Dynasty, and he was very kind.
"I'm a rough man, and I haven't gone to school seriously, and my brothers and I were originally sailors on the ships of the Great Song Dynasty Sailors, and we were stationed in Mingzhou. At the end of the 42nd year, we went to the port of Kalamba with the merchant fleet of the imperial court, but we strayed into the equatorial windless zone, and it was His Majesty who rescued us with his ship, and then these brothers and I surrendered to the Golden River Empire. Wu clasped his fists with both hands and gave Luo Youde a salute according to the etiquette of the Great Song Dynasty, and then opened his mouth to introduce his origin. In order to make his words more convincing, Wu Yong also stretched his neck vigorously, revealing the tattoo, which was the identity of the Jinhe Empire.
"Oh...... I remember, it's like that! Can you tell me how the guy who was fishing plans to take us into the Qiantang River? Since he deliberately took you back, he must have a plan, am I right? Luo Youde patted his head, and he also remembered that there was indeed such a thing. And this incident shook the Great Song Dynasty and the opposition at that time, but I didn't hear that there were officers and soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty Naval Division who surrendered to the Jinhe Empire. It seems that Hong Tao has already started to lay out, but it is actually from more than ten years ago, which is too shocking!
"Well...... this" Wu Yong really didn't dare to say nonsense, this is a secret among secrets, except for Hong Tao, I'm afraid only he knows.
"Tell Boss Luo, otherwise he won't be able to sleep, and he will have to sue his son when he is sick, saying that I tortured him mentally." Hong Tao could hear the conversation between the people behind him, but he still didn't look back. There seems to be movement on the cable, and bluefin tuna is more important than any tactics and strategy at this time. As for those who say that the secret is not secret, as long as they board this fleet, it doesn't matter, they have to rush with themselves if they know it, and they have to rush if they don't know, and there is no chance to leak secrets.
"Boss Luo also often goes to Mingzhou and Lin'an, you should know Jiang Chao, right?" After getting Hong Tao's permission, Wu Yong began to explain the details of Hong Tao's sneak attack plan to Luo Youde.
"Jiang Chao! The river tide of the Mid-Autumn Festival? I know, I also caught up twice, that scene is still fresh in my memory, if there is a miracle, I think Jiang Chao is a miracle, not to take a lighter to deceive people around. Luo Youde still didn't understand, Jiang Chao he knew that every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival in the Qiantang River, there was seawater backflow, and there was nothing nearby that didn't know. But what does this have to do with the sneak attack on Lin'an? If you want to talk about sneak attacks, you should avoid the Mid-Autumn Festival, at this time, many people in the vicinity come to see the tide, isn't it easier to be discovered.
"Boss Luo, you're right, August 18 is Jiang Shen's birthday every year, and the tide is the biggest on that day. Every year on August 16, the boats in the river have to go to the Fuchun River upstream to take refuge, and will return one after another after August 18. In order to look good, all the sailor warships of the first night had to sail out of the river and enter the water village outside the estuary to dock, at this time the river was empty, and there would not be too many patrol boats in the estuary" Wu Yong went one step further and carefully talked about the other effects of the river tide on Lin'an City. If these details were not for the natives who had served in the Great Song Dynasty Water Division, basically no one would pay attention to them, who watched the river tide and the Mid-Autumn Festival, and still paid attention to these inconspicuous things, unless it was Cixi's intelligence officer.
