"Set sail."

The three battleships, the Admiral, Xishan, and Huating, slowly lowered their sails, retracted their iron anchors, and then slowly retreated under the action of the wind.

"Sail northeast, half-sail."

Under the operation of Zheng Dahai, the admiral sailed into the sea area of the poisonous peony's nest, and the navigator intently calculated the current position of the ship, and constantly provided him with relevant data, this sea area not only has reefs but also hidden whirlpools, and if you are not careful, you will hit the reef or be sucked by the whirlpool, these can be Li Yong's three battleships die without a place to be buried, even if his battleships are already very advanced and huge, but under the power of nature, anything is insignificant.

"Report to the captain, there is a whirlpool three nautical miles ahead."

The navigator hurriedly reported the first danger point to Zheng Dahai.

"Inform Xishan and Huating to form a straight formation, keep a safe distance and follow the main ship."

Li Yong asked the signal corps to hit the two frigates, in the dark night, although there is a bright moon, but it is unrealistic to play the flag, can only rely on the light, the alcohol lamp is too dangerous, but now at this time he can't do without, the signal corps carefully held the alcohol lamp to Xishan and Huating to signal, when the ship surged, he grabbed the large alcohol lamp, because they have all seen the appearance of alcohol fire, it is really dangerous, under normal circumstances, they will not use this thing, usually the alcohol of the alcohol signal light is taken out, But tonight they had to pass through this dead sea, so they had to prepare alcohol, and after the signal soldiers had three difficult signals, they saw that the two warships Xishan and Huating began to slow down and line up behind the Admiral in turn, which made the signal soldiers quickly extinguish the fire in the lampshade.

"Thirty-five degrees to the left, the mainsail is retracted, and the auxiliary sail is half-sailed."

"Collect the main sail, and the auxiliary sail is half sail."

The main sail of the Admiral was retracted under the operation of the sailors, and the two auxiliary sails were also half retracted, as for the order received by Xishan and Huating was to keep a safe distance and follow the main ship, seeing that the Admiral was slowing down, they naturally knew what was going on, and quickly corrected the order to let their ship slow down and keep a safe distance from the main ship, as for the course, there would be no problem, and they would be lost, then they could be laid off, and the Admiral was getting closer and closer to the first whirlpool.

"One nautical mile."

"Keep the course the same."

"Five hundred meters, captain, already on the edge of the whirlpool."

Zheng Dahai didn't need to be reminded by the navigator, the rudder he held with both hands had already felt a strong force to grab his control again, Zheng Dahai had green muscles in both hands and steadied the rudder, if there was aerial photography, you could see three giant ships driving on the edge of a large whirlpool, the suction of the whirlpool was dead entangled with the three warships, like a giant mouth to devour them, the hull was also squeezed by the whirlpool and made a creaking sound, everyone's palms were sweating, Zheng Dahai looked at the front with resolute eyes, Although he could not see anything in the night, there was a light in his eyes, a light that brought them out.

"Now is the wind blowing? What is the wind speed? ”

"The wind direction is southeast, and the wind speed is level four."

"Each Xishan Huating signaled, the main sail fell half-sail, and the direction of the sail was northwest, following me."

The communication soldiers could only light the dangerous alcohol lamp again, and signaled to Xishan and Huating, which followed behind, and the three ships adjusted their direction and sailed according to Zheng Dahai's requirements, and under the traction of the sea breeze, the Admiral sailed out little by little on the edge of the maelstrom as if they had received divine power, that is, they were not sucked into the maelstrom, and after nearly half an hour of manpower and nature, the Admirals broke through a huge wave like a dragon and rushed out of the edge of the maelstrom, and Xishan and Huating also followed, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, But everyone's backs were wet with cold sweat, and Li Yong was no exception, he thought in his heart that it was really dangerous for this man to compete with nature, but he survived it smoothly, this Zheng Dahai was really good, but not long after they breathed a sigh of relief, Zheng Dahai's cold voice sounded.

"Navigator, continue to report if there is any problem with our course."

The navigator was secretly thinking that when he finally passed the first level, Zheng Dahai's voice pulled him into the second level's strategy, he quickly calculated, and soon came up with the result, and he hurriedly reported to Zheng Dahai.

"Captain, we are not on our course, and there will be a large reef seven nautical miles ahead."

"Okay, navigators, weathermen, you report every other nautical mile and tell the deck to keep the sails in condition."

"Yes."

The Admiral slowly approached the island of Poison Peony in the dark night that he had seen above, because as long as he passed the reef group, it would be safe, and then he could block these pirates in the bay, and then eliminate these pirates, but now they could not relax, although they had passed through the most dangerous maelstrom, but the reefs were also dangerous, once they hit the reef, although the three warships were protected by watertight cabins, but they continued to fight, so such damage was not allowed, especially in the vast sea, The hull was injured by hitting the reef, which is fatal, and it may not be able to hold back at any time, all of this still depends on our Captain Zhengda.

"The course remains the same, and there are still six nautical miles to the reef group."

"The direction of the wind hasn't changed, the wind speed is three to four."

The navigator and the meteorologist accurately reported the data they had to Zheng Dahai, and they all said that the sailors at sea were adventurous, just like Zheng Dahai, an old sailor, did not see fear in his eyes, but was excited and calm with composure and calmness, as the reef group got closer and closer.

"Three nautical miles."

"The wind direction has not changed, and the wind speed is level four."

"Put away the mainsail, power the undersail, and go slowly."

The mainsails of the three battleships were retracted again, and the three ships, which were originally quite fast, then seemed to lose power, and moved slowly, but everyone knew that the dark sea in front of them was a dangerous place, and their captain was leading them out of this dangerous sea, and at this moment everyone was concentrating and waiting for the captain's order.

"One nautical mile."

"The direction of the wind and the speed of the wind have not changed."

"Sailors are arranged on both sides of the bow of the ship to observe, and the reef is probed with long poles, and once found, it is reported immediately."

"The sailors are in position, the bow of the two ships is watching, and the long poles are probing."

The sailors who are ready to take a ten-meter-long iron rod, stretch out the hull, and begin to detect the reef hidden in the water, such a ten-meter iron rod is specially designed by Li Yong, in order to detect some unknown reefs or salvage some things, such an iron rod is usually dismantled a one-meter broken stick, and then spliced together to form a ten-meter-long iron rod when used, of course, such a long pole cannot be operated by one person, and it requires the cooperation of three sailors. Specially trained sailors have long been very proficient in this kind of operation, one by one iron rod into the sea, as long as the reef is found, such a distance is enough for Zheng Dahai to react, of course, there are even if there is a reaction, but it will also hit the result, because there are too many reefs here, why the poisonous peony and his ship will not hit the reef, it is because their ship draft is not deep, plus they know the situation here well, so they can enter and exit like no one, and Li Yong's boat draft is too deep, the hull is large, The guns and supplies on the ship, this is also the first time to come here, if it weren't for an experienced captain like Zheng Dahai at the helm, it is estimated that they would have run aground a long time ago.

"Reef spotted ahead."

"On the left."

"The right side is too."

As soon as the cockpit heard it, MMP, this was surrounded by a reef, everyone looked at Zheng Dahai, and Zheng Dahai did not hesitate to order.

"Stay on course and smash the reef ahead with our steel ramming."

Everyone gasped when they heard this, isn't this a joke, hitting the reef with a banging angle, Captain Zheng, are you making a joke? Why don't you say that the Titanic hit an iceberg?

"Zheng Dahai, are you kidding? If we can't hit the horns, we're done. ”

Liu Renliang asked Zheng Dahai in surprise, but Zheng Dahai didn't look at him, and looked ahead intently.

"Commander, now that I'm the captain, you all have to listen to me, if you don't believe me, remove me as the captain, or else believe me."

Zheng Dahai said firmly, Liu Renliang wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Yong, and then shook his head at him.

"We listen to the captain."

After Zheng Dahai got Li Yong's support, he became even more determined in his decision.

"All personnel are ready for impact."

After speaking, everyone clung to the fixed objects around them, and the huge Black Admiral crashed into the reef in front of him like steel, the sound of "bang~" and "squeak~" and the sound of being scraped by hard objects made everyone listen to the creepy, just now suddenly those impacts made everyone stumble and almost fall to the deck, just like a speeding car, suddenly a sudden braking feeling, if it wasn't for the battleship being strong, they would be ready to abandon the ship at this time to escape, fortunately, the Admiral's steel ramming angle was laughed at by the navy into a machete, Now it has become their talisman, the reef on the bottom of the sea is like being smashed open by a sledgehammer, the reef that originally knocked over something with a ship, it was not smashed open, and the broken reef sank to the bottom of the sea, some of the reefs that were not knocked open scraped the steel impact angle like a knife, emitting a screeching sound, but it did not cause any damage to the steel collision angle, but was directly crushed by the collision angle, and the reef that threatened the hull was finally lifted, Liu Renliang seemed to be suffocated, gasping for breath, and Li Yong's body was soaked with sweat.

"Quick, check the hull of the ship, continue to pay attention to the reef situation ahead, and any notification to Xishan and Huating must follow us closely."

When I saw this Captain Zheng again, I suddenly felt that I had picked up a treasure, where could I find such an old captain? He found such a one, of course, and the other captains were not bad, but this one was amazing, excellent judgment, calm analysis, great familiarity with the ships he was piloting, and damn maneuvering, which was not too perfect. The repair crews, who were already ready, immediately rushed to the bottom of the ship and began to inspect it, while the sailors on deck continued to be vigilant.

"Report to the captain that there are no other problems with the hull of the ship, and the hull is safe."

Next, the heavens seem to favor Li Yong's fleet, and the next voyage is thrilling, under the operation of Captain Zheng Da, he can no longer say that he is controlling the ship, more like an art, if he adds the special effects of the light, it is really amazing, under the operation and leadership of Captain Zheng Da, although all the personnel of the three battleships are still nervous, but they are no longer as they were at the beginning, they have been impressed by Zheng Dahai, Captain Zheng's technology, as long as he is there, it seems that the entire fleet will definitely be fine, That's the charm of a captain, a qualified captain.
