Because of the existence of Zhao Hongyu, through the connection of virtual traders, these genes cultivated by him can obtain very superior resources that surpass the people of this era.

Inconspicuous little things like effervescent tablets are one of them.

In this era, people who sail on the ocean or even at sea to make a living are most afraid of a situation.

That is, lack of nutrition and sepsis.

It's easy to understand that nutrition is not enough, after all, because of storage, ships in this era could not carry so many supplies to sail on the sea, let alone store those shells, and leave room for fresh water and sailors to rest.

Therefore, people in this era often have to strictly control their diet when they go on ocean voyages, that is, rationing.

In such a situation, everyone basically can't eat enough.

Especially for an ocean trip, it often takes several months or even more than half a year, which is not pleasant.

Europeans know this very well.

And this is not the most important thing, because the lack of fresh fruits and vegetables for a long time, coupled with the lack of nutrients and fresh water in addition to the lack of food, so often at this time sailors will have septic symptoms.

Many times, a sailor loses his life because of this.

This kind of thing happens to Europeans the most.

It is better here in the East, after all, there is no ocean voyage in the Oriental Sea.

But in the same way, people who live too much at sea will also suffer from some diseases due to lack of vitamins.

But such a thing is not seen among the sailors of the Song Empire.

The reason is simple, because such a problem can be solved, and the solution is effervescent tablets.

Effervescent tablets, which are a modern product of another time and space, are small vitamin tablets that are dissolved in water. It can replenish some substances needed by the human body.

Although you can't get enough vitamins for your body in the same way that you eat fruits and vegetables directly, you can always avoid the trouble of vitamin deficiency.

And the fat tablets are small in size and easy to carry, so they don't need to occupy a lot of space at all to be stored.

As a result, a lot of space is saved.

Li Xiang took the wooden water cup handed over by the captain of the genetic man and tasted it slightly.

The taste is somewhat sweet, and there are some bubbles in the mouth, which is generally good.

"That's what you drank when you're at sea?"

After Li Xiangba clicked his mouth, he looked at the captain of the Song Empire who had explained a lot of things to himself after him.

"Yes, when at sea. But thanks to this thing. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to stand such a long voyage, after all, we are flesh and blood. ”

This sentence is not nonsense, although they are all genetic people cultivated in the virtual world world through virtual traders, across time and space, but they are not superhuman robots, they are also flesh and blood like Zhao Hongyu.

They are the same birth, old age, sickness and death, there is no difference.

So, because of the long voyage at sea, they will also get sick.

It's just that they are better than those who beg for a living at sea in this era. They have enough medicine on each boat, a relatively comfortable lounge, and a clean space.

Although he had this gene, he explained to Li Xiang.

But. Li Xiang still didn't understand what this effervescent tablet was in the end.

How can a small and inconspicuous thing replace fruits and vegetables?

Under the generation gap across the era, Li Xiang has such incomprehension and doubts. Actually, it's quite normal. If he could really understand, then he would be a demonic being.

Zilala!

Zilala!

It was at this time that the Gene Man Captain's waist was around. Suddenly, there was a strange sound.

Li Xiang's attention was immediately attracted to it.

"I'm sorry, I might have something going on here." After the captain of the gene man confessed to Li Xiang, the detective picked up a black thing from his waist.

"Hey, I'm ship 101 here, I'm ship 101, what's the matter? What's the matter? ”

Who is this talking to?

Li Xiang's eyes widened, looking at the genetic captain who was talking to the walkie-talkie.

This genetic captain doesn't have time to explain to Li Xiang now, he really talks to other people.

It was a long time before they finished talking.

"Who the hell were you talking to? I saw no one around. ”

Seeing that the genetic man captain had finished talking to someone who he didn't know, Li Xiang couldn't help but ask.

When the captain of the gene man heard this, he smiled at Li Xiang and said, "This is a gadget of our empire, the name is walkie-talkie, it can contact other warships through the air, it is very convenient......"

Confused!

Quite confused!

However, while being confused, Li Xiang was also very shocked.

Airtalk!

Grandma's, what the hell is this means.

To be honest, for this walkie-talkie that can talk through the air, Li Xiang is really curious.

Seeing Li Xiang's curious look, the captain of the genetic man knew that he had to explain to him again.

However, the captain didn't think that after he explained, Li Xiang would be able to understand everything. After all, if you can't even understand effervescent tablets, do you still expect him to understand walkie-talkies?

It's just impossible.

Dividing Line –

When Li Xiang set out from Nagasaki and led thirty imperial warships and three Ming-style warships to return to Amami Island, hundreds of warships of various sizes appeared fifty nautical miles off Amami Island.

On the flagpoles of these warships, without exception, large flags with the character 'Li' on a white background are hung.

These ships that appeared on the sea were all oriental-style sea vessels. There is a Ming-style warship with a two-story small attic, with battlements on both sides of the warped head and tail, and rows of oars on the bucket boats, which follow the surrounding single fast boats.

Ships like this are only available in the eastern seas.

If you look at it with your eyes, you can tell it.

These sudden appearance of sea ships have already occupied a large part of the eastern seas. And the fleet under the command of Zheng Zhilong, who has already revealed the domineering momentum.

But why did they suddenly appear off Amami Island?

Come to think of it, the target of these people may be Amamijima.

In the middle of the flotilla there was a Spanish galleon. This Spanish galleon stands out from a crowd of Oriental ships and is immediately visible.

On the highest pole lookout in the center of the Spanish ship, a sailor with a scarf on his head stood, his right hand on his forehead, constantly observing the front.

"Leader Wang, I already see Amami Island ahead. At our speed, we can get there in an hour and a half. ”

When the outline of Amami Island first appeared. The sailor on the pole shouted loudly.

Fifty nautical miles is not far away, but after all, it's on the sea, isn't it, and the line of sight is different from on land.

In particular, the sailors in charge of observation climbed onto the pole that was doing the trick.

Below, a one-eyed man with a beard wearing half a piece of Western-style chain mail and a sword at his waist laughed wildly.

Hahaha!

"Li Xiang's destruction today is today! Brothers are all ready, we must destroy Li Xiang today, and the entire sea will be our world in the future. ”

The one-eyed man's voice landed, and the men around the deck. One by one, the wolves howled.

Yes, this fleet is the fleet under Zheng Zhilong, and that one-eyed man is one of the twelve leaders under Zheng Zhilong's command, known as the 'Wang Renzeng' who is the king of murder at sea.

Speaking of this, Wang Ren once came. He is famous under Zheng Zhilong.

His fame is so great that he can even stop children from crying at night in Fujian.

Because this guy has always been ruthless, the sea merchants who fell into his hands have never lived.

Even. There are also rumors that this guy likes to eat children's hearts and livers raw.

Because when Zheng Zhilong was begging for a living at sea, Wang Renzeng had been following Zheng Zhilong. And he fought for Zheng Zhilong's life and death, and was loyal.

Therefore, Zheng Zhilong also trusts him very much.

Now that Zheng Zhilong has risen, people like Wang Renzeng were entrusted with important tasks by Zheng Zhilong and became one of the twelve leaders under his command.

Of course, although Zheng Zhilong trusts him, there is a limit.

After all, the former person used to be a foreign surname, and he can't be compared with his blood relatives.

Therefore, being able to be one of the twelve leaders is already a very good treatment.

And Wang Ren once expanded because of Zheng Zhilong's power, and he also enjoyed happiness.

However, it is also because Zheng Zhilong's power continues to expand, and the manpower is also constantly expanding. Now there are more people who enjoy the same status as him.

Even, even Li Xiang's kowtow brother, after Li Xiang was sentenced to join Zheng Zhilong, he was also supported by Zheng Zhilong on an equal footing with himself.

In this regard, Wang Ren was very dissatisfied.

But what about dissatisfaction?

Can he still rebel against Zheng Zhilong?

It's simply impossible, he would only do it if he's brainless.

After all, even a fool can see that Zheng Zhilong is now domineering and exposed, and the environment of the sea overlord has been formed.

Since beating Li Xiang and now weakening, Zheng Zhilong has slowly determined his position as the overlord.

In the eastern seas, there is no one to compete with.

In addition, Zheng Zhilong also took refuge in the imperial court, and on the surface, he is the chief military officer of the Fujian Navy Division of the imperial court, if you dare not deal with him, Zheng Zhilong can call the water division of the imperial court to destroy you in minutes.

Therefore, Wang Ren was unhappy in his heart, but he didn't dare to have the idea of betraying Zheng Zhilong.

However, he didn't want those who joined later to be on an equal footing with him like this.

He really couldn't stand the fact that he was there.

After all, he was the first person to follow Zheng Zhilong, and he followed Zheng Zhilong in all kinds of hardships and dangers.

Like those guys who joined later, how can they be on an equal footing with him.

So, he wants to prove himself to Zheng Zhilong, to prove that he is not a guy like those wall grass. He, Wang Renzeng was stronger than those people.

Therefore, without getting Zheng Zhilong's order, he gathered his men. With hundreds of sea ships in his charge, he slaughtered towards Amami Island, where Li Xiang was located.

Wang Ren once thought that Li Xiang could not be his opponent at all now. Since the Battle of Naha last year, Li Xiang can be said to have broken his muscles and bones.

At the same time, after the Battle of Naha, Li Xiang's brothers and some of the people who originally followed Li Xiang all betrayed him and took refuge in Zheng Zhilong, which greatly weakened Li Xiang's strength.

According to the information provided by those guys who took refuge, Li Xiang doesn't have too many ships in his hands now, and the warships he can use now are only six Ming-style warships, dozens of bucket boats, and more than a hundred clippers.

With such strength, even he can't compare to himself.

Therefore, Wang Ren decided to solve Li Xiang at one time. Then let Boss Zheng Zhilong see that he Wang Renzeng was still a useful person.

In this era, the channels and means of news transmission are ruthlessly backward, and the information that Wang Ren has received is already half a year ago. He didn't know that Li Xiang, who was now in Lu Dao, had taken refuge in the Song Empire and became its Kyushu Admiral.

Moreover, before that, Li Xiang also received a congratulatory gift, a full nineteen European-style warships.

Not to mention the fact that Kyushu, which has been captured by the Song Empire, has changed its master.

The king knew nothing about this.

Standing on the deck, letting the cold sea breeze blow on his face, Wang Renzeng's heart was hot.

His intact right eye, with a cruel sheen, looks very infiltrating.

Damn, I don't know what Boss Zheng always doesn't let us solve Li Xiang, the current Li Xiang is just a half-dead person, as long as you stab him a little, you can solve him.

And where does Li Xiang still have a lot of money, is it difficult to keep it like this?

Thinking of the wealth that Li Xiang had accumulated for more than 20 years, Wang Renzeng suddenly became excited.

Legend has it that Li Xiang was a great tyrant, after all, Li Xiang had been galloping on the sea for 30 years, and at that time he had monopolized the maritime trade of the entire East.

Therefore, if you want to say that Li Xiang has no money, no one will believe it at all.

With such a large fortune, no one will not be tempted.

Wang Ren once went to sea with Zheng Zhilong on his back this time, although he had the intention to prove himself to Zheng Zhilong, but he came more for Li Xiang's wealth.

Wang Renzeng's Spanish ship is his flagship, which was captured from the Spaniards when Zheng Zhilong fought the Spaniards five years ago.

Because Wang Ren had followed him for a long time and had old qualifications, he gave him as his flagship.

Around the flagship, there were more than two dozen Ming-style attic warships, which were armed with crossbows, trebuchets, and elite sailors armed with bows and arrows.

Seeing that he was strong and strong, Wang Ren once said in his heart: "Hmph! Lao Tzu is going to get rich this time, Li Xiang's wealth is so much, I can still keep half of it if I hand it over to the boss, as the so-called starve the cowardly ...... to death" (to be continued......)
