Suddenly, a group of pirates turned to temporary jobs and went to sea to whaling, and they went to sea to work in whaling, and they went to sea together.

One was the bird boat they were fighting in, the other was the flat-bottomed sand boat they had robbed, and each of them had a sampan for six or seven people to use for whaling.

In addition, Yu Xiaotian asked the carpenter and Zhang blacksmith to work overtime to build a few whaling forks, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is a spear with barbs, and the sharp iron spear tip is equipped with a strong wooden pole, and the wooden pole can be tied with a rope.

In addition, Yu Xiaotian also asked Guo Fu to take his apprentices and make several round wooden barrels with ready-made wood, which were completely and thoroughly sealed, and there was an iron ring left on the barrel, which could tie the rope on the whale fork to the wooden barrel.

It was a piece of cake for them, and they worked day and night, and soon made several of these large wooden barrels, and mixed them with tung oil, plant ash, fish glue, and broken hemp, and sealed the gaps between the boards, and the barrels were finished, and after they were thrown into the water and tried, they did not leak, and they were transported to the ship.

As for the large ships, there are plenty of ropes and throwing guns to be prepared in case you can tie the hunted whale to the stern of the boat and drag it back to the island, or catch up with the wounded whale and deal it with heavy blows.

After making these preparations, Yu Xiaotian ordered to go to sea, divided his men into two groups, and sent them to two boats to go to sea with him.

Now his ship is no longer one, after the Chinese New Year, considering the convenience of calling the ship, Yu Xiaotian named the four ships now.

Their main battle bird ship simply used their name, named Seawolf, and also used as the special name of his ship with a helm handle, and this ship name will not accompany this ship for life, once Yu Xiaotian changes to a better ship in the future, this ship name will be transferred to his new ship.

The bird ship that has not yet been repaired, Yu Xiaotian named it the Seal, and once it was repaired, it was immediately used as the second main battle ship with the Seawolf.

The sand ship was named the Walrus, mainly because it was a little stupid and could only be used for cargo transportation purposes and could not be used as a pirate ship.

There is only that small fishing boat, which is too simple, originally Yu Xiaotian didn't want to name it, but it attracted the opposition of the people who came from Xiaohuangdao, after all, that boat was the only boat they relied on to make a living before, and they couldn't favor one over the other, so Yu Xiaotian had to find a random name in the sea fish, and saw that the hull of this small boat was yellow, so he named it Huangyu.

After a few days of preparation and temporary training, Yu Xiaotian and his subordinates boarded the ships and set sail for the first time in whaling.

The people on the island didn't understand Xiaotian's sudden going to whaling, and felt that it was too risky to do so, the whale was so big, it was impossible to hunt easily, and it was not as good as going to the sea to grab a boat.

But Yu Xiaotian thinks that he can try whaling, in addition to obtaining a lot of valuable things such as oil, whale meat, and whale skin, if they can take dog shit luck and catch a sperm whale, and it happens that there are still a few pieces of ambergris in the sperm whale's body that have not had time to be eliminated from the body, then they are really transported home by dog shit, and this thing is a big fortune.

This is not the most important thing, but more importantly, he hopes to further train his fellows through whaling.

Although they have also done several hijacking transactions, there are not many veterans among them, and many of them are ordinary people, even if Yu Xiaotian strictly trains them, but they always feel that this group of people lacks a fierce murderous aura.

Now he can use the whaling activities to temper these people, because whaling in this era is definitely a test of life and death, and people who don't have some courage can't do this kind of thing, and he also knows that the whaling scene will be very bloody, and through whaling activities, it is guaranteed that these people will be tempered very well.

So he was determined to take the gang out to sea to hunt whales, and in addition to obtaining the oil they urgently needed, he could also store a lot of oil, which could be eaten and used as firearms at sea.

The sea environment of this era has not been damaged too much, the marine life is very sufficient, in addition to the countless marine fish, the number of whales is far more than that of later generations, and the area off the coast of Fuzhou is also a place where whales often haunt, there are many whales, so they don't have to run too far to hunt whales.

Moreover, they are just trying their hand at whaling this time, and they don't plan to do it for a long time for the time being, which can be regarded as preparing in advance for the next big battle with the Chaojiang Dragon.

After the two boats were ready, they set sail for the sea, and Meng Maniac was ordered by Yu Xiaotian to take the walrus and follow the Seawolf.

The two boats sailed out into the wide sea one after the other and began to search for whales nearby.

Considering that their ship is not a professional whaling ship, and the ship is not capable of handling the captured whales, let alone dividing the whales at sea, and ensuring that the whale meat will not spoil, they cannot run far this hunting operation, but can only hunt near Treasure Island, and once there is a harvest, they can quickly drag the whales back to the island for separation.

Therefore, they temporarily controlled the hunting range to within twenty miles east of Treasure Island, and the upper buckets of the two ships widened their eyes and began to search the sea.

I have to admit that the marine life resources are abundant in this era, and soon they saw a group of dolphins at sea, and also found a lot of sharks, after half a day of searching, they finally found a group of whales on the sea at about three o'clock northeast of Treasure Island.

With the shout of Shangdou, the sea wolf tribes on both boats immediately became nervous, or it can be said that they were excited, and they rushed to the side of the ship to look into the distance.

There are about five or six whales in this group, Yu Xiaotian is not an oceanographer, and he can't accurately distinguish the species of these whales, but roughly speaking, it looks a bit like a baleen whale, but the size is not very large, the longest one is roughly eight or nine meters long, and its weight is estimated to be less than ten tons, what is it called, Yu Xiaotian doesn't know how to do it, so he can only roughly call it a minke whale.

This is a more suitable target for them to practice, if the first time they hunt, they encounter a more huge fin whale, it is estimated that they will be given another guts, they will not dare to hunt, so Yu Xiaotian immediately ordered to turn the rudder and take the two boats towards the place where the whales are infested.

As the distance closes, the people on the boat can feel the size of the whales, even if the minke whales in front of them are not very large, which makes them nervous one by one.

After closing the distance with the minke whales, Yu Xiaotian ordered the two ships to lower the sampan together, and he himself went down to the sampan and began their first whaling operation with a dozen of his selected capable and bold men.

In such a large group of people, the only one who can be called a little experience is probably only Yu Xiaotian, and Yu Xiaotian's so-called little experience in whaling is all from TV or some fiction magazines.

So he is a standard guy on paper at this time, but no matter what people do, there is always a first time, otherwise, it is impossible to accumulate any experience.

Yu Xiaotian commanded his men on the two sampans, and ordered them to paddle hard towards the whales, and on their sampans were placed a few whaling spears, a few barrels, and trays of twine.

After approaching these whales, Yu Xiaotian felt that the pressure began to multiply, when people faced such a huge creature, they would involuntarily produce a sense of awe, Yu Xiaotian is also a human, and he is not a madman, so it is inevitable that the muscles all over his body will begin to tense.

After some observation, Yu Xiaotian locked his eyes on a slightly slower whale, this minke whale is probably older, and its size is one of the best in this group of whales.

As Yu Xiaotian, who knows some environmental awareness, although it is best for them to hunt whales for the first time, it is better to start with smaller whales, but he does not want to hunt those young female whales with calves, and always feels that it is a crime to do so.

So he commanded the two boats, stared at the larger and slightly older whale in the whale group, and rowed the boat quickly towards the whale.

Whales are not alert to the approach of humans, their size is huge, and it is difficult for ordinary things on the sea to hurt them, so after seeing Yu Xiaotian's two boats approaching it, the old whale is still unhurried on the surface of the sea, appearing leisurely.

Yu Xiaotian silently recited Amitabha, and said ruthlessly, I am sorry for the whale, we are also for a better survival, so we can only be sorry for you!

The two sampans were getting closer and closer to the whale, but the old whale still did not look frightened at all, nor did he dive to dodge, and still remained on the surface of the sea.

Yu Xiaotian could even smell the fishy smell of the whale spewing out of the air in the air, and the size of the whale in his eyes was getting bigger and bigger.

On the other boat, the spear was held by Li Dazui, who was strong, courageous, and hard-hearted, and at this time Li Dazui also stood up on the sampan, and also learned from Yu Xiaotian in his hand, holding a whaling spear, hunched his waist, and staring at the whale in front of him like a prawn.

The subordinates on the two sampans, at this time, also held their breath one by one, mechanically rowing the oars hard, driving the boat towards the whale, at this time they can be said to be afraid of death, but with Yu Xiaotian personally taking them here, they didn't dare to say no, let alone stop the oars in their hands.
