These six clippers are 18 zhang long and 3 zhang wide, can carry 5 to 8,000 stones, each is equipped with more than 100 sharp soldiers, and is equipped with a crossbow, and the rest of the armament is also very good.

Not only that, but they have shallow hulls and four-masted sails, hollow bows, and protruding adjustable mast sails to match the rudder effect at the stern.

In this way, not only can the whole ship be close to the surface of the sea at all times, but it can also sail steadily in partial winds and even headwinds, and they can reach a maximum speed of 40 nautical miles per hour.

As Ying Zheng responded, Zhao Zihu waved his hand, and a group of twenty people, led by Li You and Zhang Cang, boarded the deck of the first ship from the Dongshantou Dock Wharf.

The rest of the lords freely chose to board other clippers, and during this period, some people who lived in the poor ravine all the year round reacted that it was really fun......

For example, the great Confucian Yingyao!

Obviously, Zhao Zihu has spent a lot of time spitting and using a tumbler to explain the principle that this new big ship will not capsize, but this old man still looks gray and calm.

Not only did he follow behind Ying Zheng, he always wanted to find a place to hide, and even noticed that others didn't seem to notice him much, so he shrunk his back with his chest on his back, his buttocks slightly pouted, and his legs slightly bent, like an old turtle.

This was obviously an attempt to find a balance on the ship that had not yet set sail, Zhao Zihu didn't pay attention to a glance, and inevitably laughed: "Master Ying Yao!" What do you mean by that? ”

Ying Yao was stunned, and replied to Zhao Zihu's painful smile like a mourning exam, and was about to quibble, but he heard that Han Fei fell into the well first.

In the past few days, Han Fei and the Confucians have argued repeatedly because of the Qin Law, almost to the point where they can't give up, and everyone is holding their breath, wanting to see the other party embarrassment.

It's just that a wave of unevenness has risen again and again.

"Brother Ying's posture, isn't it seasickness? Ha ......"

Han Fei just opened his mouth to let out a few mocks, wanting to laugh three times, he didn't want to be blown by the sea breeze, his face turned blue when he boarded, and he was busy waving his hands at Yingzheng again and again, so he ran to the side of the boat, leaned over and spit out towards the sea.

Seeing this, Ying Yao suddenly felt relieved, straightened his chest and straightened his clothes, shook his head and sneered: "Fifty steps to laugh and a hundred steps!" Why should you do this? ”

Before he could finish speaking, he heard the sound of the waves in his ears, and he pursed his lips and ran to the other side of the boat to vomit.

There were bursts of vomiting on several other big ships, and then looking at Li Si, Zhao Gao, and even his stinky younger brothers were a little uncomfortable, Zhao Zihu was speechless.

…… In the past, weren't they all alive and well?

But he also understands that this is not to blame everyone, they actually have some psychological effects, and their distrust of the pointed bottom boat can be smoothed by a few words.

Take a trip to the sea!

If you come back from a trip to the sea, you won't be afraid anymore......

So it seems.

His own Lao Tzu really deserves to be the first emperor of the ages......

The ability to accept new things is just right!

How did Zhao Zihu know that Ying Zheng was also panicked at this time.

You are also too shallow and empty-minded, right?

Only then did he step on the deck of the seaship, and he didn't move, so he became so virtuous......

No!

You can't think about that word, you can't look at what they look like......

I am the first emperor of the Great Qin!

Be sure to maintain your own image.

At this time, the fleet was ready to set sail, and Li You waved his hand to Ying Zheng in accordance with the rules: "Respectfully Your Majesty, give the order to set sail!" ”

Looking left and right at the nobles who were still vomiting, he didn't feel the slightest discomfort, just a little funny.

When he and Deputy General Zhang took the lead in coming to this big ship, they had also experienced such a while.

I can't even eat all day......

But on the second day, everything was fine, and it was a transition.

Ying Zheng just nodded at Li You's request, and pointed at Zhao Zihu with his hand. He didn't want to speak at all now, for fear of being blown by the sea breeze, afraid of smelling it, and throwing up.

"Respectfully, Childe will give the order to set sail!" Li You was helpless and asked again.

The corners of Zhao Zihu's mouth twitched, even if he reacted, Yingzheng was also stunned.

Raising his eyes and looking around, he saw that Xu Fu and other scholars and sharps had all performed their duties, so he immediately acted as a temporary commander and gave orders in a loud voice.

"Journey two hundred miles to the East China Sea, and then turn back to Zhifu along the coast...... Set sail now! ”

"Yui~"

Li You and Zhang Cang received the order at the same time and quickly retreated to convey the instructions.

Some boatmen climbed onto the mainmast like flying, waving the banner and beating the drum to send a message.

One by one, the signals were passed down, and cheers rang out from each clipper.

Then.

Countless thick ropes that fastened the hull of the ship were untied by the sharp men on duty at the dock, and they were thrown into the air with a whistling sound like a red practice, and the people on the ship put it away with all their might.

Many of the anchors were also quickly pulled up and secured.

This Great Qin's anchor, whose real name is "Boat Block", is a large iron ball with a thick chain.

According to later research, the shipyard was gradually replaced by a hook-like anchor in the Han Dynasty, and evolved into a meteor hammer among the eighteen weapons.

…… Whoosh.

…… Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Most of the soft and hard sails of the six clippers rose to the top of the mast in an instant, picked up the northeast wind, pushed the fleet, and sailed away from Zhifu Island like flying arrows.

"Good~~"

The First Emperor's eyes were full of brilliance, and when he shouted such a word, he stumbled because of the speed of the ship, and fell on the deck.

Without waiting for everyone to react, he said "yue" on the spot, vomited wildly, and raised his eyes to glare at Zhao Zihu while scolding.

"A coward! So tricky? ”

"Father! You're to blame for that. ”

Zhao Zihu immediately shouted, and he also walked back to Li You and Zhang Cangyao, who were walking back, and he didn't carry this pot.

"Childe! But there are also instructions......"

Li You and Zhang Cang didn't understand what they meant, and stood still in a daze, but suddenly saw how His Majesty the Emperor was lying on the deck, Prime Minister Li and Zhao Fuling were busy going to help, and there were still a few dirty things on the ground.

They immediately understood, and hurriedly took a few steps back, one of them raised his eyes to look at the sails, and the other aimlessly glanced at the boatmen, sharps, etc., and did not hear the humming of Yingzheng.

How embarrassing is this?

Whoever cares is stupid!

But the situation is getting worse and worse.

Li Si and Zhao Gao originally wanted to help His Majesty the Emperor, but as soon as they got closer, when they saw the situation, the breath they were holding back was no longer bearable, and their stomachs began to turn over and over, so they vomited.

Immediately afterwards, Meng Yi was not far behind and vomited. But after all, no matter how he said it, he was also from a family of military generals, and his body was quite useful, and he picked up Yingzheng while spitting, and slapped the back for the first emperor.

At the beginning of His Majesty the Emperor, Hu Hai's stinky younger brothers almost overturned all the overnight food, seeing that Diao Chan also had such a trend, Zhao Zihu smiled bitterly and invited the medical officer to whisper a few words.

"Dried banxia, Huoxiang, mint...... Is it boiled into soup? ”

The medical officer was the medical officer accompanying the ship and the imperial doctor beside Ying Zheng, and they listened to Zhao Zihu's instructions before they patted their heads and reacted.

It's no wonder they can't think of it, it's really in a hurry, and most of the people in the boatload are vomiting, which makes people completely overwhelmed.

About a quarter of an hour passed.

The deck has been washed and cleaned.

All the lords sat down on their knees, each holding a bowl of medicinal soup and sipping slowly, and there were water stains on their sides, but they didn't care.

Sailing on the waters......

It's not uncommon for a wave to wet your face.

In the past, they had to be vassals and elegant, and chanted a few words!

The crowd did not want to stand and suffer the pain of seasickness.

Ying Zheng didn't want to stand up again, he was sitting on a soft couch with a solid wood bottom, leaning on the black lacquer tea case, leisurely combing his long hair that was a little wet.

After a pause, he motioned for Zhao Gao to continue the medicinal soup, took a sip while holding it up, looked at Zhao Zihu's back, and snorted angrily.

This coward! You have to sit on your forehead, and you have to stand on your partial......

Still hovering on the bow of the ship, is it afraid of eating a whip?

Ying Zheng thought about it and gave Zhao Gao another look.

Zhao Gao laughed left and right, he boarded the ship today, and he didn't bring a horsewhip.

Ying Zheng is sluggish, and he is about to summon the baby to come closer.

Suddenly, the clipper on the far side on the left let out a short emergency drum sound, from far to near, one by one, one after another.

Li You hurriedly ordered the flag bearer to raise the flag for questioning, and then waved his hand to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty! The third ship on the left spotted the enemy......"

"Enemy tracks? Could it be a water bandit? Such a bold bandit, even my big fleet dares to rob? Ying Zhengwei said with a smile.

He has never been to sea, and this is the first time that a big girl has been on a sedan chair, and he has no concept of "pirates" or the like.

Li You didn't dare to interject, and when the emperor finished speaking, he said again: "It's not a water bandit, but I found a big fish like a hill." ”

"Big fish? Hill in general? Really? Ying Zheng stood up in surprise, and his body shook a little in an instant.

"A ship is like a march! Don't dare to say anything! Sensing that his father Li Si also looked at him with a warning look, Li You was slightly stunned, but he still answered truthfully.

"That being the case! I order you to drive this big fish to the center so that I can watch it well. ”

"Only~" Li You led the order, and once again ordered someone to play the banner, and the drum sounded.

Ying Zheng strode forward and walked towards Zhao Zihu at the bow of the ship. Surprise took hold of him, and he felt less dizzy and nauseous on the ship.

Zhao Gao, Li Si, Meng Yi, Han Fei and others also stood up and walked to the bow deck.

The father and son stood side by side, Zhao Zihu grinned at Yingzheng and said, "You wait and see!" A rare show is about to be staged......"

As he spoke, he looked out at the sea on his left.

Far on the horizon, a black dot suddenly appeared, and the black dot was gradually expanding, indicating that it was approaching at an alarming speed.

When the black dot got closer, you could see that it was a blue-gray oval riding the wind and waves, with water splashing on both sides.

In this situation, the two clippers in the front row quickly changed the formation of the encirclement, and the one on the far left overtook and stopped in front of the black spot.

The encirclement gradually narrowed, and the sharp men of each ship fired crossbow arrows one after another, but they did not dare to shoot directly at the big fish, but gradually forced the fish in front of the flying clipper boat where the emperor was.

Zhang Liang, who was standing behind Han Fei, couldn't help but shake his head secretly.

The emperor is really not good to serve, and it is just enough to shoot the big fish when he finds it......

I'm going to come and let him see it.

If they run away, I don't know how many people will be convicted?

Therefore, he made up his mind to create a career for someone who has made a difference......

Never become a courtier who serves the emperor's likes and dislikes!

The big fish was gradually driven to the center, and sure enough, the volume was not small, about as tall as the big Qinlou boat, and the head was still spraying water.

Zhang Liang has seen this kind of giant fish in Canghaijun, but he has never seen such a huge one, and the locals call it the Beijing fish, and the Beijing is also a big one.

Before going to the Central Plains with him, Cang Hailis, who was dressed as a firewood chopper and tied up by Zhao Zihu, was mainly fishing for this kind of fish, and he was very good at practicing and could throw 120 catties of iron cones.

As soon as the fish was shot, the fish fled in pain, and the iron spear barbed in the flesh, and the blood flowed endlessly, and the fish dragged the fishing boat up and down.

Because this kind of Beijing fish, like people, must breathe on the water, so sometimes underwater, sometimes on the surface, drag the fishing boat all over the sea, and finally bleed too much and die, and then use the boat to drag the fish back.

Ying Zheng was engrossed in the Jingyu, only to see where the big fish arched, there was a hidden thunder roaring among the stratus clouds, the waves rose and fell like a small hill, and the clipper boat under his feet also swayed.

He turned his face and asked Zhao Zihu in surprise: "What kind of fish is this, so large?" ”

"Back to my father! It's called a whale. In fact, it is not a real fish, but like us, it is a viviparous creature that grew up drinking the milk of its mother. They are short but huge, small like small fish boats, big ......"

Zhao Zihu did not hesitate to answer, and looked sideways at the group of curious baby-looking lords, Diao Chan and stinky younger brothers.

"It's a hill like this! Like us, it breathes with its lungs and needs to rise to the surface of the sea often to breathe. When a whale dies, it sinks to the bottom of the sea, so that the whale falls, and the carcass decays in the sea, nourishing countless marine life. ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly thought......

Oh, yes!

If the Great Qin collapses, it will be like a whale falling, and the Qin law and Qin system will benefit future generations.

But.

I'm ......

Great Qin can't collapse!

Daqin will not collapse!

At this time, most of the boatmen accompanying the boats also recognized the fish, knew how to catch it, and put down the dinghy one after another.

They unleashed their ropes and rowed towards the big fish, like a swarm of ants running to a lively and fresh anthopper, each holding a spear with a long cord in his hand.

Here, Zhao Zihu also violently lifted his spirits, and asked the chamberlain to remove his armor and hand over a spear and a thick rope.

He himself fastened the thick rope to the middle of the spear, and strode back.

"Zihu! What do you mean by this......"

Immediately after, under the stunned gaze of Ying Zheng and everyone, he rushed forward again and shot out the spear in his hand violently.

"Whoosh~~"

Under the influence of Zhao Zihu's innate divine power, the spear flew through the air, drawing a long, dazzling parabola in the sky, and piercing the head of the big fish with great precision.

The big fish went crazy with pain, the big tail swept away, and a big wave rushed towards the clipper boat, Ying Zheng was so frightened that he took several steps back, and his whole body was splashed wet.

More than a dozen small boats over there were also approaching the big fish, and their spears with barbs kept shooting at the back of the fish.

The big fish dragged more than a dozen small boats to escape into the distance, and the shouts of the soldiers on board were like thunder, and the war drums beat more fiercely.

Seeing the big fish sometimes underwater, sometimes on the surface, churning and galloping, and the blood staining a large area of sea water, Ying Zheng seems to have returned to the excitement of watching people fight dogs in Handan at the age of eight.

He loved to see blood, no matter what kind of blood it was, as long as it was blood, it would make him feel inexplicably excited.

"Your Majesty, let's change your clothes in the cabin! His Majesty's robe was wet. Zhao Gao stepped forward to play, this is his care for Yingzheng, and it is also his duty.

Ying Zheng pushed him rudely and said impatiently, "Wait, I want to see the result!" ”

He is no longer an emperor at the age of several tens, but a wayward child who watches the excitement on the streets at the age of eight.
