The Bay of Bengal is located in the northern part of the Indian Ocean and is the largest bay in the world, bordering the Indian Peninsula in the north of the equator, Myanmar and Bangladesh in the north, and intersecting with the Indian Ocean in the south from Sri Lanka to Sumatra.

Lu Dazhi decided not to land in Sri Lanka to resupply, which disappointed Amir.

Amir sent hundreds of ships out to search, but the sea was vast, and about twenty ships were found.

Lu Dazhi equipped the captain of each boat with a telescope, searched carefully every day, and once he found a boat, he immediately fled.

On the coast of the island of Sri Lanka, after four or five encounters, they all escaped without incident, and finally the fleet left the coastline of Sri Lanka and headed east.

At this time, Lu Dazhi remembered the benefits of the Mido Empire's sailing ship again.

If you have sails, you have to save a lot of manpower, and the speed is not much slower.

This is also an area that Yang Xi overlooked when designing ships at that time. Yang Xi only thought about efficiency, but did not think about saving some manpower, these more than 20 ships, thousands of ships took turns to fight, and stepped on the earth in a circle.

"Finally into the Bay of Bengal, from today onwards, all our supplies must be accurately distributed, the logistics must be ordered, according to the plan I gave, everyone must join in the collection of food and fresh water, all the crossbow bolts and tents on the ship are concentrated, and the ship's guards process them into harpoon hooks and tarpaulins."

Although the chance of rain is slim, Lu Dazhi still has to be prepared, in case it comes, there is no rain cloth for rain, it will be a joke.

Lu Dazhi will give an order, and all the ships will start to get busy, and the first day is to make tools, thousands of people will move, which is simple.

The next step is group fishing and group boiling, the anglers go directly to the big boats in groups, and the harpoons are directly put down the rescue boats, staring at the sea in the small boats, and once there is movement, they go down with a fork.

After almost three years of survival around the world, even the original weak body has become extremely tough and survivable at this time.

Only ten minutes after the second day of fishing, a man harpooned a strange fish of more than ten kilograms.

At this time, people knew very little about the ocean, and even Yang Xi knew little about it, but as long as it was a fish, it would be put on the boat first, and then distributed according to work.

Seeing that this method was really effective, Lu Dazhi stretched out his thumb to the shipkeeper who was holding the fish from a distance, and the shipkeeper was so excited that he almost fell off the lifeboat.

On the boat on the sea nearby, everyone laughed, but they secretly held their breath in their hearts, and in a blink of an eye, they focused on the sea.

This method of spearing fish can only be used during rest time, but the big ship is going east, which is not the main source of food.

The main source of food is still fishing, and this spearfish only provides bait for fishing.

There was no rain for six consecutive days, the fresh water stored on the ship had long been used up, and the briquettes were basically gone, so Lu Dazhi began to start from the lifeboat.

On the eighth day, the sky was very blue, and seeing that the rain was slim, Lu Dazhi was disappointed and happy.

The disappointment was naturally due to the lack of rain support, and everyone had to use their quota of drinking water carefully.

Fortunately, it was also because it didn't rain.

The Bay of Bengal is a breeding ground for tropical storms, with storms and tornadoes that form in the Bay of Bengal in September and October every year, hitting the east coast of Bengal and India. Just in time for the full moon, the effects of the moon's gravity and a series of minor earthquakes made the flood even more ferocious.

This tropical storm is commonly known as a typhoon!

Typhoons can wreak havoc on coastal land, let alone at sea ----- where they originate.

Fortunately, when Lu Dazhi crossed the Bay of Bengal, it was November.

The fleet sailed slowly, and on the tenth day, the fleet, which had twenty-two ships left, was now one less.

The missing ship was naturally directly divided by the ruthless Lu Dazhi and turned into firewood.

On the eleventh day, before he saw the land, even Lu Dazhi was a little anxious, and early in the morning, he took a telescope and looked east at the bow of the ship.

Left and right anxiously asked, "Your Excellency, what's the matter?" ”

Lu Dazhi shook his head and said, "It's still endless!" ”

Lu Dazhi was about to say something, but he didn't feel a response from the left and right, and when he looked back, the two guards were looking north, trembling all over.

"What's wrong? There is an enemy attack? ”

Lu Dazhi was a little nervous.

"Nope! Total! Total! Lord Doge, what is that? ”

Lu Dazhi was shocked, could it be that there was really an enemy attack, although he turned his head to look north.

What catches your eye is a low hill above the horizon, and although you can only see a flat hill popping up, it is indeed a good land.

At this time, Lu Dazhi also began to tremble.

He Lu Dazhi only looked east, ignoring the north and south, this is good, almost missed.

At the same time, cheers began to sound on the left and right ships.

Lu Dazhi ordered to raise the flag left and right, and commanded the fleet to sail north, and for half an hour, a long verdant mountain appeared in front of him.

The fleet found a deep place to get closer to land, and many of them jumped into the water and ran towards the beach without waiting for the boat to stop.

Soon, however, the people began to be disappointed, for they found that the whole land was a low mountain, with a radius of only two or three miles.

Lu Dazhi took out the map, looked at it carefully, and everyone preliminarily concluded that this had reached the Andaman Islands east of the Bay of Bengal, and further east, the Burmese Sea.

Burma Sea, what a kind name, because at this time of the Burma Sea, he belongs to the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce!

"We're back?" Someone looked incredulous.

Lu Dazhi nodded and said: "Yes, we are back, a day or two further east, it should be Taijun, brothers, go to the island to find fresh water, there are so many trees, there must be fresh water, we will do the last replenishment of the circumnavigation voyage!" ”

If the Bay of Bengal is a head, the Andaman Sea is an ear to the east.

From Myanmar downwards, there is a chain of islands, many of which are connected to the southernmost island of Sumatra, and the sea to the east of this group of islands is the Andaman Sea, commonly known as the Burma Sea.

Lu Dazhi judged right, his fleet was on one of the small islands.

After a night's rest, early the next morning, the fleet began to set off and rushed straight to the embrace of the Chenhe area.

The Burma Sea is 1,200 kilometers long from north to south and more than 600 kilometers wide.

The news of the return in two days reached all the passengers, and all the ships exploded.

So the crowd began to pack their bags.

Who said that there is nothing to tidy up, after three years outside, walking more than 100,000 kilometers, always collecting some special products, everyone has their own commemoration, this is the evidence of their trip, this is the evidence of history.

On the first day of December, Lu Dazhi saw the real continent!
