Chapter 180: New Discoveries
The war was still going on, the rumbling cannons were endless, and a pirate ship was swaying in the midst of the cannon fire, which was as miserable as the fugitive ship they were chasing.
"A little closer, a little closer..."
At this time, the pirate head had hung up, and he was replaced by a small leader under him, who stared at the front without blinking, and kept talking.
"The resilience of these pirates is incredible, and they are still unwilling to surrender to such an extent!" Li Bao said solemnly, "Aren't they afraid of death?"
If all the islands encountered in the future are like this, how can the Chinese Navy dominate the four seas?
"Hmph, it's just a dying struggle!" Gan Ning thought more simply, "Before you die, you want to bite us, I don't know if it's alive or dead!"
"Whew!"
A huge arrow about three feet long slammed into the deck of the F-1, sending a cloud of debris flying into the air, and the soldiers on the deck were caught off guard, and their heads were broken and bleeding from the flying logs.
"What's going on?" the hull of the ship suddenly shook unnaturally, and Li Bao hurriedly asked loudly.
Without waiting for the guards to go out to inquire, a soldier stumbled in and reported the matter.
Gan Ning only felt a panic on his face, and he was blue and white for a while.
"Admiral!"
"Order! Sink the enemy ship for me, and don't accept surrender!" Li Bao's feeling is no better than Gan Ning's, this is Chi Guoguo's slap in the face!
"Aim for me and fight again! Get serious, stop playing!" After receiving Li Bao's order, the gun commander Ren Zhen's loud voice rang out in each gun position!
"Grandma's bear! these grandsons are actually playing yin!" Ren Zhen ripped off the big cap on his head and scolded him.
On the other side, on the pirate ship.
"Hahaha... Let these miscellaneous people be scared, now you know how powerful the grandfathers are!"
"I guess the official on the other side of the ship should have a crooked nose!"
"I don't know if you did a few of them just now?"
The new pirate wiped the sweat from his face and said resolutely: "Brothers, now that they have suffered a loss, they must hate us to the bone, and they will be serious! Brothers, but Lao Tzu does not regret it, and beat them hard before he dies, hahaha... Tell them to tease Lao Tzu!"
From the very beginning, the result was predestined, and the consequence of the pirates' anger at Li Bao was to speed up the process a lot.
Half an hour later, the sea was calm again, and only the scattered broken planks on the surface of the sea could indicate that a ship had once existed.
"Send someone to rescue those who are not yet dead!"
After venting his anger, Li Bao also regained his composure, and immediately ordered to rescue the survivors who were still struggling at sea, his purpose was to get the navigation chart, not to kill people, if he killed the guy who was likely to know the route because of venting, then wouldn't he be busy in vain?
And, even if none of these people know the route map, these survivors are all old people who have been running at sea, and it is always useful.
When Fei-1 and Fei-2 rendezvous again, time advanced another twenty minutes.
Zhou Tai took a dinghy to the Fei-1 and reported the situation to Li Bao, and the Fei-2 was temporarily helmed by the first mate.
"How's the situation?, have you asked something?" Li Bao stared gloomily at a big hole on the deck that had been punched out by pirates, and after seeing Zhou Tai coming, he turned his head and asked.
"The situation is very bad!" Zhou Tai said, "whether it is a ship or a person! After the boatman's test, there is no need to repair the broken ship, and it can be directly chopped for firewood!"
Well, there are twenty-one living people in total, not a single old or young or female, but except for a teenager who is hidden at the bottom of the barn, the rest of the people are as thin as hemp stalks, even if there is no threat from behind, they can't hold out today... I don't know what the identity of that teenager is that can make them work so hard!"
Li Bao was obviously interested when he heard this, and he caught a big fish!
"You say, where did those old and weak women and children go? Is there no one in the first place, or..."Gan Ning suddenly interjected, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Li Bao and Zhou Tai at the same time.
Nima, don't be so scary! I'm going to vomit out my overnight meal!
The people around are counted as one, as long as they have rich associations, their faces are pale, and they only feel that their stomachs are turning upside down, and their eyes look at Gan Ning, the initiator, faintly like they want to kill.
was collectively glared at by so many people, Rao is Ganning has thick skin, and he also feels a chill down his back.
"Okay, let's not talk about this!" Li Bao glared at Gan Ning hatefully, and then asked, "Does any of them know the route map?"
"They have been able to survive until now completely by one breath, and after they find out and are rescued, this breath will disperse, let alone talk, they can't even open their eyelids! After being fed a bowl of gruel, they have already fallen asleep!" Zhou Tai said.
"What about the ship?"
"Didn't find it!"
Li Bao waved his hand in disappointment and said, "These pursuers are not from any place we know, language communication is very difficult, it is completely chicken and duck talk... So, even if the people over there wake up, they won't gain anything for the time being!"
He now regrets that he has blown the chasing ship into slag in a fit of rage, and he is blind!
"Lord Admiral, the last general thinks that the words spoken by these people are not in any language we know, and this is already a big gain!" Zhou Tai reminded.
Li Bao was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, and said with a smile: "What Youping said is reasonable! Hahaha..." As soon as he thought of the meal, Li Baobao thought of the possibility that Gan Ning had just described, and his face darkened again.
Let's skip dinner!
"Flag Command Fei-2 to head to Qiufu Island!" Li Bao gathered his mind and said, "Let's rest on Qiufu Island for a few days, and then return to Huaxia immediately!"
"No!"
"Lord Admiral has considered it thoroughly..."Zhou Tai said, "With the physical condition of those survivors, they will not be able to make the trip at all if they don't recover for a while... Do you want to rest for a few more days?"
"No need! This matter must be reported to the king as soon as possible!" Li Bao refused Zhou Tai's proposal without thinking about it, and said: "If they can keep up, they will take them together, if they can't keep up, they will stay on Qiufu Island and wait for us to talk about it next time." Of course, the only boy you said was intact must be taken with him!"
Zhou Tai thought about it and nodded, Li Bao also thought about it with the fact that there were those captured pursuers, and the value of the survivors on Zhou Tai's side was greatly reduced, and as long as the teenager they desperately wanted to protect was taken away, they were not afraid that they would run away - in fact, they were on an isolated island, and they had no way to escape - when the time came, it would be considered benevolent and righteous to cry blind and give them some food and living supplies.
