When Mu Chonglan heard Zhao Yongkang's words, he helped his tulle hat and said, "It's okay, I'm wearing this, it's not hot." ”

"Then you can sit and rest for a while and drink some water." Zhao Yongkang continued to persuade, for fear that Mu Chonglan would faint from the sun, and then Xiao Xiantang would come to trouble him and Yan Hongxin, even if Mu Chonglan was willing to stand outside.

Mu Chonglan looked at Zhao Yongkang and nodded helplessly: "Okay then." ”

Although he didn't know why Zhao Yongkang persuaded himself so much, seeing Zhao Yongkang's bitter face, Mu Chonglan subconsciously decided not to embarrass him.

Seeing that Mu Chonglan went to rest, Zhao Yongkang breathed a sigh of relief. "General Yan, why don't you take a break, I'm watching here."

"I don't have to, that's what to do, I was on the island before, I was worried every day, that's really hard." Yan Hongxin said, and smiled bitterly.

The position of the navy is at the checkpoint, although it has not won, but it has not asked the pirates to step on their corpses, relying on a heart of loyalty to the country, but the court only sees wins and losses, and never asks about the side, so they obviously don't even dare to sleep in loose clothes, and they always sleep in clothes, for fear of a sudden pirate attack, but the court can't see anything, and always feels that they are eating and waiting for death, refusing to send new warships, and refusing to send reinforcements.

If it weren't for the refusal of the imperial court to allocate funds, they would not have been able to contact Zhao Yongkang and use various methods to privately prepare materials and prepare for shipbuilding.

Fortunately, that kind of hard time has now passed, although Xiao Xiantang is young, but he is a ten out of ten ghost talents, he not only uses soldiers like a god, but also knows how to march and arrange, almost one defeat, their losses are very small, and it is even likely that one defeat will be defeated, and their soldiers are all intact.

What kind of talent is this, Yan Hongxin doesn't know, Yan Hongxin only knows that he was still conceited before, and he felt that he was good at leading the troops, and after seeing Xiao Xiantang leading the troops, he was completely impressed.

"I don't know what kind of scene it will be on the sea after these ships are built." Yan Hongxin suddenly felt something.

Hearing Yan Hongxin say this, Zhao Yongkang smiled: "I don't know what kind of scene it will become, but I think it must be a new situation." ”

"That's right."

Seven days later

Xiao Xiantang brought Zhao Yongkang and his party to his island, when they arrived through the waterway, Zhao Yongkang and the others were staring at each other, they were very familiar with the sea area of Longtong County, but they didn't expect that in this sea, there was such a place, and even reached through the bottom of the sea.

Yan Hongxin's eyes rolled, and he suddenly remembered that a long time ago, he seemed to have seen Xiao Xiantang and Mu Chonglan on the sea, and the appearance of Xiao Xiantang and Mu Chonglan was very inexplicable, thinking that it appeared through the passage under the sea like today.

I only thought it was strange at the time, but I didn't think about it in this direction, but now that I think about it, I suddenly understand.

Thinking of this, Yan Hongxin couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, and secretly smiled bitterly, how can he compare with that Xiao Xiantang.

"General Yan, what are you shaking your head for?" When he came out of the seabed, Zhao Yongkang happened to be beside Yan Hongxin, and when he saw him shaking his head, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

Yan Hongxin smiled: "It's nothing, I just felt surprised, I didn't expect there to be a cave here." ”

When Zhao Yongkang heard this, he smacked his lips: "It's not, it's like an overseas immortal mountain." ”

Overseas immortal mountain is a kind of immortal mountain described in the book, similar to a mirage or peach blossom source, obviously I have seen it somewhere before, and if I look for it again, I will not find it, Zhao Yongkang said that Xiao Xiantang's island is an overseas immortal mountain, which sounds a bit exaggerated, but who came to find him on this island, I am afraid that it is not allowed to enter.

"Did you notice?" Ge Lao took a slow step and said to Zhao Yongkang and Yan Hongxin.

"See what?"

"What is Ge Lao referring to?" Zhao Yongkang and Yan Hongxin were puzzled and asked one after another.

Ge Lao sighed softly and said, "Torch." ”

"Torches?" Zhao Yongkang and Yan Hongxin looked at each other, both of them were a little puzzled, and they didn't know why Ge Lao was talking about the torch, because the torch didn't seem to be wrong.

"At a glance here, I'm afraid there are no less than 10,000 people." Ge Lao explained.

Zhao Yongkang and Yan Hongxin are not fools, after hearing Ge Lao's words, they immediately understood.

Indeed, this island is not small, and there are many ships around, in addition to two very large warships, there are also nearly thirty small warships, and these warships are also brightly lit, so when you look at the past, it is not enough to say that there are at least tens of thousands of guards here.

"No wonder, he doesn't look down on our Dinghai, he has a lot more people than Dinghai." Yan Hongxin smiled bitterly.

Ge Lao also smiled bitterly: "Do you think he looks down on the Dinghai because he dislikes the Dinghai Navy because there are only 3,000 soldiers?" ”

"Isn't it?" Yan Hongxin asked with some surprise.

"Have you forgotten how strong those soldiers were when he trapped us? If it was his elite soldiers, it would be fine, if it was just his ordinary soldiers, then his 10,000 soldiers would be too amazing. Ge Lao explained with a wry smile.

Zhao Yongkang was on the side, listening to the conversation between Ge Lao and Yan Hongxin, and smiled dryly: "Look at what you said, I don't know what to say." ”

"Actually, I think this is probably only a part, judging from the contact these days, Lord Xiao seems to be arrogant, but in fact he is very cautious, so I suspect that this is only a part of it, after all, eggs can't be put in one basket, and there are three holes in the cunning rabbit." Ge Lao said.

Zhao Yongkang and Yan Hongxin nodded in agreement.

At this time, a soldier came over, indicating that Xiao Xiantang was looking for the three of them, so the three followed the soldier to Xiao Xiantang's side.

When they went, Xiao Xiantang was sitting in one of the big war ships.

Ge Lao noticed that the setting in the cabin was a little different from that of ordinary warships, it looked more quaint, and it was also inlaid with a large number of steel plates, not like a new ship at all, but more like a refurbished warship, so after thinking about it, he suddenly remembered that this warship was the warship of the Red Silk Pirate Regiment.

The leader of the Red Tassel Pirate Regiment is called the Red Rakshasa Pirate Regiment, so the real name of the Red Tassel Pirate Regiment is also called the Red Tassel Pirate Regiment, and the reason why it is called the Red Tassel Pirate Regiment is because their warship has sharp spikes like spears on the bow and also hangs red tassels, so everyone is used to calling them the Red Tassel Pirate Group.
