Chapter 385: A Storm in the Sea

On the second day of the first month of September, the Chaojia army fleet rode the wind and waves along the opened route. More than 100 seagoing ships invisibly formed a cone-shaped battle formation with the least resistance. No matter how strong the wind and waves on the boundless ocean are, they can't shake the slightest.

The surrounding water is connected with water every day, and the water and sky are connected, boundless.

“……

Simply love what your heart loves

The world has also gotten bigger

All the flowers bloom for you

All the scenery is also arranged for you

We are so different

I must have loved him deeply in my previous life

talked about this life and met again.

……”

On the flagship at the front of the fleet, on the deck of a 20,000-material magnolia boat. Listen to the bizarre but beautiful melody mixed with the song fluttering.

Whether it was the heavily armed guards, the shirtless sailors, or the generals Chen Hu, Li Kai and other generals, the people on the adjacent ships were fascinated by what they heard. Looking at the men on the deck who were playing and singing music. No one has eyes that despise the play, but is full of admiration.

Because the person who caresses the qin is Chao Gai, who doesn't know the name of the king of heaven, who doesn't know? Shandong Tianwang Chao Gai can be civil and martial, business farming, cooking and forging ......, nothing will be fine, nothing is refined, playing the piano and music, it is good.

Different identities bring different impressions.

Chao Gai seemed to sink into the music, stroking the piano, and the deep singing voice floated. This is a classic old song by singer Wu Bai in later generations, and they meet again. The crisp and melodious tune is different from this era, but it is very pleasant.

Hu Sanniang, two female generals with full body drapes, clapped their hands against the side of the boat. With a smile on his face, he hummed along while fiddling with the tea set to make tea. Li Qingwan, Li Qingzhao was holding flower shoes with a loving face.

Master Li held the pipa, and his slender jade fingers followed the melody and quietly imitated. Without exception, the woman's eyes looking at Chao Gai were full of tenderness.

Sailing, especially ocean voyages, is long and very boring.

No matter how strange the seabirds are, no matter how good the view of the sea is, you will get bored of seeing too much. It was impossible for Chao Gai to stay in the room with his wife all the time, so he often accompanied them on excursions on huge ships or on the deck to dance guns and sticks, and now at the invitation of his wife, he played musical instruments and sang.

Before I knew it, the song ended again.

"Okay, good to hear...... The guards on the flagship, the sailors, the people on the adjacent ships, and the soldiers shouted one after another, cheering for Chao Gai. It is not known who led the applause, and then the applause drifted across the sea.

Master Li, who is quite accomplished in lyrics and songs, immediately wrapped himself in Chao Gai and coquettishly: "Husband, this song is very good, can you teach me well?" ”

"Good! I'm free to teach you. How could Chao Gai disagree? Looking at a woman with a big belly but not bloated, but fuller and more charming.

"Husband, you're the best!" Master Li smiled skillfully.

"Husband, come and have a cup of tea." Jerodari smiled and pushed over the teacup.

"Sweet and fragrant, good tea." Chao Gai took the cup and took a sip, his eyes lit up. The tea is slightly astringent in the mouth, and then turns sweet, and I can't help but praise it.

Yelu Tali smiled slightly: "This is the best Baihao tea produced by Fujian Road." We saw it when we were shopping in the city, so we bought a little. ”

Chao Gai nodded, and turned to look at the two sisters, Li Qingzhao and Li Qingwan. In recent days, they have been busy knitting children's clothes and shoes.

"I said, what are you doing? You can't buy it later. ”

"Hmph, how can you buy it with your own hands and have a sense of accomplishment." Li Qingwan rolled her eyes wildly.

"Hey, I didn't have a chance before!" Li Qingzhao's expression was gloomy, and he touched his stomach again, becoming happy: "I didn't expect that the skills I learned were not wasted." ”

"Then you sew a few more sets, teacher, Sanniang, they won't."

"Hmph, Chao Gai, you are so partial, you know how to bully the two of us."

"Hey, isn't this a lot of work? I asked them to help. ”

Chao Gai saw that Li Qingzhao thought of the past and immediately changed the topic, deliberately assumed the posture of a big man, pointed at Master Li, Hu Sanniang and others to assign tasks. Immediately let Li Qingzhao, Li Qingwan twisted her eyebrows and glared, puffing out her cheeks.

Just when husband and wife are bickering with each other.

Hu Sanniang, who was leaning on the side of the boat to blow the wind, suddenly pointed to the seaside and exclaimed.

"Wow, husband, look, what a big fish."

"What a thick column of water, this must be the whale that the husband said."

"Oh my, what a big monster, monster."

"Baby, take the baby into the cabin, there are monsters."

Not only the two women exclaimed, but the other boats also exclaimed. Many of the people panicked, and even shouted out monsters and the like.

Chao Gai got up and looked around, and immediately smiled.

In the front left water, a group of blue-brown whales of various sizes are swimming. Some spew out thick columns of water, while others have huge tail fins lapping against the water, and the waves are tumbling in layers. There was also a small blue whale seven or eight meters long that burst out of the water and jumped high, and then plopped and fell into the water. Set off a monstrous wave that spreads in layers and rocks nearby ships. If it continues to get closer, it will cause the giant beast to go berserk, and the consequences will be worrying.

Chao Gai was preparing to ask the guards to inform the commander, Li Jun, to change the course.

However, it was obvious that Li Jun, the mixed sea dragon, had already experienced this kind of thing, and his roar sounded: "Tell me to go down, try to stay away from the whales, and let the people return to the cabin." It's a group of whales again, the wind has become stronger, and it is estimated that there will be another storm. ”

As he spoke, the big man's face became solemn, and he looked up at the sky, and he didn't know when the blue sky, which was still clear, was covered by dark clouds.

The flagbearers of the ship wave various flags, and the sailors of each ship always pay attention to the movements of the flagship. Orders were quickly issued from ships to ships, and shouts came and went. The people on deck entered the cabin one after another. As the helmsman at the helm of the ship took the helm, the established course of the fleet gradually shifted away from the group of blue whales.

Whales are full of treasures, if they can be hunted, the meat can be eaten, and if they can't be eaten, they can be pickled or dried, and leather armor made of whale skin......

Chao Gai looked at these giant beasts with a greedy gaze, and he wanted to do something about it. Just considering the performance and itinerary of the boat, I don't want to get sideways. We can only wait for the technological innovation of the shipbuilding industry to try it at sea.

He also sensed the change in the direction of the wind, so he asked the ladies to pack their things and go back to the cabin. It's just that the storm is coming, and the instruments have just been packed. Suddenly, a strange wind blew, and the flags planted in the command room were hunting.

There were no winds and three feet of waves in the sea, but now the wind is blowing, and it is even more choppy.

"Hurry up..., lower the sails, drop anchor, don't worry about tables, chairs, benches and other sundries," Li Jun immediately made a decision when he saw this, and immediately opened his throat and ordered.

The personnel on the flagship moved.

The fleet has made many round-trips, and this situation has not been uncommon. In fact, before the emergency horn sounded, the ships had already reacted to some extent.

Sailors collect flags, or carry tables and chairs to the cabins. Some joined forces to throw large iron balls with chains into the sea, while others climbed the mast to untie the sails, and the speed of the fleet plummeted, resisting the sudden storm with all their might.

Chen Hu also blew his whistle, and the eagles roared one after another in the sky. Then several birds of prey with wings spread about two meters through the clouds and swooped down.

This is exactly what the little golden eagles that were fed and raised, and now they are familiar with the way.

WhewW......

The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the sea seems to be boiling, setting off huge waves. Due to the strong wind and waves, the ships that had been sailing in formation were scattered. The sailors and soldiers on the ship staggered, and those who ran even stumbled and fell.

"Grab the handrail, grab the handrail, don't get swept into the sea." The sailors who rushed to the front line shouted loudly and braved the wind and waves to steer the ships.

The wind and waves are getting stronger, and the ships are getting more and more bumpy.

Even if the flagship is like a behemoth, it is insignificant compared to the sea, and Chao Gai protects his wife and stumbles into the cabin, but it is difficult to move forward. See that there are handrails throughout the cabin. So he told them to hold on to the side of the boat. and Hu Sanniang, Huazi, and Yelu Tali to protect the pregnant three daughters.

Han Shizhong, Yu Tai, Li Kai and other generals led the guards to do not get much better. Most rushed into the cabin and grabbed the handrails, and a few were outside to meet the storm.

Thundered......

Outside, thunder was roaring, dark clouds were rolling, lightning and thunder were roaring, heavy rain was pouring down, and the wind was even more fierce. The waves crashed against the ship, and the waves rushed down like a storm, washing the tables and chairs and benches on the deck far away. The sailor turned into a soup chicken, but he still insisted on not taking a step back.

They either struggled to drop anchor or packed the sails. Li Jun stumbled to the wheelhouse to take the helm himself to prevent the big ship from crashing like a headless fly.

"Oops, that's so cool!" It was convenient for Yutai to go, and when he came out, he encountered this situation, ran the slowest and witnessed the raging waves on the deck, and he was soaked by the waves, and he screamed.

"General, hold on to the ......, and be swept into the sea and it will be over." The sailors nearby saw that the guy wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and yelled to warn.

The situation was similar for other vessels, as the sails were lowered and anchored in time. The load on the ship is sufficient, the problem is not big, keep your distance, withstand the storm.

In the sky, dark clouds rolled and the wind swept the sea, as if it were overturning. Thousands of ships are like months, ups and downs.

Crews and sailors have long been accustomed to it.

However, the first time the many people on the ship encountered it, they were not only frightened and turned pale. Fortunately, such situations have been encountered, and there are elderly sailors on each ship, shouting loudly, and there is just a small storm.

The people gradually settled down, holding on to the handrails in the cabin and waiting.

Storms at sea come and go as fast as they come.

In less than half an hour, the sea gradually calmed down. The dark clouds in the sky quietly dispersed, and the autumn sun shone down, and it was exceptionally warm.

"Ma'am, are you all right?" Chao Gai looked at Li Qingwan, Master Li, and Li Qingzhao, who were a little dizzy, and asked with some distress.

"Well, it's okay, my head is a little dizzy." The three girls shook their heads and sighed.

"That's what you call the storm?"

"Oops, I didn't expect the wind to be so strong at sea."

Just at this moment, the cheers of the sailors were heard outside.

Chao Gai was curious, and the ladies did the same, and did not go back to the cabin to rest, but walked out of the cabin again and saw the scene outside.

It turned out to be the commander of the fleet, Li Jun, who asked the sailors to cast large fishing nets and take advantage of the opportunity to catch fish near the end of the storm.

It turns out that danger comes with opportunity.

A medium-sized storm swept by, and the fish in the sea were dizzy.

Thirty or fifty people shouted slogans, dragged fishing nets, and some laughed. The same was true of other boats, dragging nets and yelling.

In this sea, there are cheers.
