Chapter 105, Holy Maiden
With the help of the dragon girl Ao Shuang with the magic weapon to avoid the water, the 10,000-year-old dragon cave is not to be feared. After the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info Gu Zhenren thanked the dragon girl repeatedly, he returned to Lin Island with Li Yunlong and the others.
After two days, carrier pigeons came and went, and although thousands of miles away, the Vulcan's every move was under the control of the pirates.
The task of threatening and driving the Vulcan is mainly on the Fire Rose Caterina, whose pirate fleet is mainly entrenched in the area of Gorofusa (the Strait of Malacca), with a large number of ships and the eyes and ears of her lieutenant Quinn's magical falcon.
Why didn't Fire Rose Catalina swallow the fat sheep of the Vulcan alone? It's not that she doesn't have this idea, it's mainly that she doesn't have the strength to do so. The Vulcan is not an ordinary merchant ship, and Caterina knows very well that since the ship carries the eternal fire, the secret treasure of heaven and earth, it will definitely be guarded by heavy soldiers. Let's not talk about the masters in Zoroastrianism, just talking about the few monsters she heard from Gu Zhenren, Katerina knew that if she wanted to swallow the Vulcan alone, it would be wishful thinking.
Her more than 100 large and small sailing ships and more than 3,000 mixed pirates are okay to deal with ordinary merchant ships, but it is really useless to face terrifying monsters. Then why didn't the Zoroastrians forcibly break through the suspicious soldiers arranged by Katarina, or turn back to fight to the death with the Vida of the Fire Rose? You know, since the city of Sizhou in Xuzhou was flooded in the Tang Dynasty, the Zoroastrians were determined to re-establish their trade network in the Tang Dynasty, so they loaded many rare goods on the Vulcan. If you fight hard against these robbers on the sea, the eternal fire, the foundation of the religion, is important, and the lifeblood of the whole religion cannot be lost.
Therefore, the pirate fleets of the Zoroastrian merchant ship Vulcan and Katrina the Fire Rose tried their best to avoid the battle and went around the deep sea to avoid the obstacles in front of the left, and the other followed behind, not rushing or slowing, and exerting pressure from behind. was also calculated or unintentional, and slowly, the Vulcan was led by the nose by these pirates and fled in the direction of Qilianyu.
As for the other two pirates, the Emperor Dragon Zaitian and the Moshi Sun Shaohai, they also met on Lin Island. According to the agreement, Emperor Yan ambushed his men near the north reef northwest of Qilianyu, and when the Vulcan was about to pass by the Yongle Island reef group, he moved parallel to the east from above to block the Vulcan heading north.
Mo Shi Sun Shaohai's more than 30 boats, nearly 1,000 brothers. The boats are all oars and sails, and people are hiding and crawling, ambushing behind Lin Island and Stone Island.
To the east of Qilianyu is thousands of miles of Changsha, which is a natural barrier, when the Vulcan arrives here, there is no way to go to the east, to the north is the barbarian dragon in the sky, to the south is the fleet of the Moshi Sun Shaohai, and in the west is the many ships of the fire rose Caterina that followed, which is the trend of catching turtles in the urn.
This plan is easy to say, but in practice, it is not easy.
First of all, it was Emperor Yan, Ink Lion, Fire Rose and others who underestimated the defensive power of the Eternal Fire on the Vulcan, and the seemingly transparent defensive shield could actually resist the magic heavy arrows that Caterina bought with a lot of money from the mirage!
Caterina initially feared that the magic arrows would destroy the cargo of the merchant ship, but her heart sank when she saw that it had only left a slight crack in the Vulcan's defensive shield. Alas, I am afraid that if we want to drive this Vulcan to Qilianyu, the materials to be consumed will be three times the budget! This money will have to be calculated with that barbarian and Hei Kunlun in the future!
Second, there is the sea breeze, and sailing depends entirely on the sea breeze, but not on the tailwind. Most seafaring merchant ships are vertical sailboats, and they must be the fastest when they are inclined to the wind. In the South China Sea, the southwest wind prevailed in the past two months, which is really not beautiful.
But it's normal to think about it, the fire phoenix Katarina has been rampant in the South China Sea for so many years, how can she not know the ghost weather in this place? From May to September, this generation mainly blows southwest winds.
However, what puzzled Fire Rose Caterina was that after entering the first half of August, the northeast wind blew in the South China Sea for several days in August! Moreover, the ocean current, which had been basically unchanged in the past, began to flow slowly in the northeast direction! The speed at which the Vulcan fled made Caterina wonder whether she was chasing after it or whether the Vulcan was going to drill into the trap by herself!
Not only did Fire Rose Caterina not know, but everyone on the Vulcan, as well as pirates such as Emperor Long Zaitian and Moshi Sun Shaohai, did not know that this wind and water were all caused by Ao Qin, the Dragon King of the South China Sea. On the territory of the old dragon, there is still some friendship on the side of Gu Zhenren, the old dragon blows the wind, and the water is just a gesture, and this favor naturally has to be sent.
When the Vulcan arrived near Qilianyu and fell into the point where there was no way out and there were chasing soldiers behind, it was late August of the thirteenth year of Zhenguan.
On Qilianyu, Gu Zhenren, Sersi Witch, Li Yunlong, Bei Duofen and other three people lined up in an embarrassed line, blocking the way.
To the north of the Vulcan, the Kokstad is poised for action, like a hungry shark. Seeing the big man on the ship with the sea snake logo, Li Yunlong knew what a real barbarian was. The pirates were either shirtless and scarred, or they wore horned helmets and were extremely obscene. All of them were full of swear words, provoking the crew of the Vulcan.
The Emperor Dragon was holding a treasure blade stone axe in the sky, and stood at the bow of the ship with a big grin, with a wicked smile on his face.
To the south? A lion ship that is more than 20 zhang long, 5 zhang wide, and nearly 2 zhang high is crowded with people, and on 20 or 30 boats of all sizes on both sides, it is also full of people, and the feelings are also hard stubble.
The black lion Sun Shaohai, who was the leader, leaned next to the lion emblem on the bow of the boat, hanging his son. Of course, the people on the Vulcan knew how powerful this lion was, so naturally they would not easily brush the tiger's whiskers.
As for the Fire Rose Caterina behind her, she had already led her subordinates to block the Vulcan's retreat and completed the encirclement.
There was no way out, and the mysterious Vulcan had to stop.
Only then could Li Yunlong witness the full picture of the giant Vulcan on the sea. I saw that it was about 25 zhang long, nearly 10 zhang wide, more than 3 zhang high, and the bow also had a ship emblem, which resembled a flame. The three-masted sails are lined up one after another, and the flame banner is hung at the highest point, which is extremely eye-catching.
The ship was bigger than the largest tree island in Qilianyu, and it seemed to stand out among all the pirate ships. No wonder all the pirates want to work together to ambush this sea overlord, this bone is not easy to gnaw.
When the Vulcan stopped, several people were separated from the crowd and boarded the bow.
Among the four people at the head, the first one was a Persian girl with a beautiful face and a beautiful figure, the red gauze covered her cheeks, but she couldn't hide her eyes, and the red bandeau and bare back were hidden in the red silk shirt as thin as a cicada's wings.
