Chapter 787
When the collection of sea ships is almost the same, the day of the army's
departure is approaching.
Mr. Xu went to the country with Fu Bao, while Mr. Xu stayed in the capital
with Zhao Bingzhen, just in case something happened.
In fact, unless it was the little emperor who went mad, there would be no
change in this Datang under normal circumstances.
But here is the problem. The little emperor's recent performance is a bit
neurotic, and he feels hysterical before doing things crazily.
In order to prevent the little emperor from going crazy, Boss Xu had to reduce
the number of soldiers and horses to conquer the Japanese nation, in case the
little emperor really did any crazy actions.
After all, for some things, it is better to prepare in advance than to regret
and worry afterwards.
After everything was prepared, Fubao and his eldest brother embarked on a sea-
going ship to the country of Wa.
Hundreds of sea ships sailed out of the port with a dozen warships leading the
way.
Although there are many sea ships, not all troop carriers, half of them are
loaded with various materials, including siege equipment and food supplies.
Of course, these sea-going ships are not in vain. The owners of all sea-going
ships have the priority to acquire the soldiers' loot.
However, some good things are bidding.
This time, the overall policy of the Japanese expedition was set by Fubao.
The military salary is not high, but 70% of the spoils goes to the soldiers
and 30% to the court to make up for the material consumption of the
expedition.
Under this trophy distribution strategy, all soldiers are high-spirited.
Because as long as you win this battle, you will be able to get rid of poverty
and become rich, marrying a wife, buying land, and tossing whatever you want,
all without money.
After all, this time they went on an expedition, they came rushing to destroy
the country.
Sea boats are different from river boats. Sailing on the sea is completely
different from sailing on the river.
There are many people who are not seasick on the river boat, but on the sea
boat, they are very dizzy.
For example, Boss Xu was so seasick that he could only lie on his stomach in
the cabin. He would vomit for a while when he ate and drank.
"Brother, you are too embarrassed!"
Fu Bao was completely unaffected, so he seized the opportunity to wander in
front of his eldest brother.
Poor Boss Xu was so angry at all, but he couldn't do anything fortune, because
it was very difficult for him to sit up.
"Brother, why don't you try the fetal breath method?"
By the next day, seeing that his eldest brother was still dizzy, and the other
soldiers had basically recovered, Fu Bao found his eldest brother in front of
him.
Boss Xu rolled his eyes and said, "Is it still necessary for you to teach? I
did this early in the morning and it didn't work at all!"
From a long time ago, people in the old Xu family knew that the fetal breath
method was magical. When encountering some special occasions or troubles, the
first thing that came to mind was the fetal breath method.
"That's no way, brother, just keep lying down, I'm going fishing in the sea!"
Seeing that his eldest brother could only continue to lie on his stomach, Fu
Bao waved his hand.
Sea fishing!
I have heard people say that this is a very interesting thing.
Fubao has never had the opportunity to try. After all, she did not have the
capital to sea fishing in her previous life. The salted fish, as long as she
can get by, she can stay at home for as long as she can.
Haishang’s various equipments are very complete. After hearing that Fubao
wanted to go sea fishing, someone immediately sent the best sea fishing
equipment.
However, these sea fishing equipment is obviously different from those fishing
rods of later generations.
Although it is also a fishing rod, the material is very different, and the
fishing line is also different.
Fortunately, Fubao has never played with the fairly modern sea fishing
equipment in her previous life. She has fished in a reservoir, and she has no
skills at all. It is pure luck.
However, this person is very lucky, even a professional fishing player, in
front of her, has to be flat.
It’s just that Fubao’s luck didn’t seem to be very good today, and only then
did he put the hook and bait down on the surface of the water, and a shark was
attracted.
One shark appeared, then two sharks, and more and more sharks gathered.
"Captain Hu, what's the situation?"
Fubao only knows that sharks appear on a large scale in the sea, which usually
means that the smell of blood in the sea attracts them. Of course, these are
all from those big sharks.
Otherwise, Fubao knows nothing about the habits of sharks.
"The county owner, sailing at sea, often encounter schools of sharks, because
Hainan Airlines often kills people."
"There are some pirate boats, they will even use blood to attract sharks to
chase their ships."
"Oh, what do you think is going on now?"
Fu Bao aimed at the talking ship owner Hu. This was an experienced veteran
navigator. Otherwise, Fu Bao would not have boarded the ship with his eldest
brother.
"According to a small observation, I am afraid that a corpse has fallen into
the sea near here!"
"Is it our fleet?"
Fu Bao looked at each other intently.
Shipowner Hu smiled and said: "The county owner has been worrying too much. It
shouldn't be our business. Look at the direction these sharks are coming from.
Ninety-nine percent of them are there!"
"Pass the order, let the fleet look in that direction!"
Fu Bao directly ordered the fleet to move forward in the direction pointed by
the owner of Hu.
On the sea, if a corpse falls into the water and attracts sharks, then there
must be a sea boat nearby. At the gateway of Datang’s conquest of the Japanese
kingdom, Datang’s sea-going ships had long since stopped going to the Japanese
kingdom, and the Japanese countries even dared not go to the side of Datang.
Then, where did the ships on the sea come from?
As Fubao's order was passed on, the fleet changed its deviating direction and
drove in the direction pointed by the owner of Hu.
Before long, three sailing ships appeared within Fubao's sight. Judging from
the shape of these three sailing ships, you are definitely not Datang's sea-
going ships.
"Owner Hu, do you know the flags on these three ships?"
Fu Bao looked at the owner of Hu, who was standing next to him.
"Back to the county lord, that should be the boat of the Maoyi people. But,
strangely, the Maoyi people usually only appear on the south coast of our
Datang. Why would these three boats appear here?"
The owner of Hu was puzzled.
With his many years of sailing experience, he still didn't understand what the
situation was.
But Fubao guessed it.
Mao Yi people should refer to Westerners. These three Western ships appeared
here, and ninety-nine percent of them were voyages around the world.
"Help!"
When Fubao and the others spotted the three Maoyi ships, the other party also
spotted them and yelled at them.
"Keep up, first salute and then pawn!"
Since he is a pioneer of circumnavigation around the world, he can just borrow
their nautical charts to use, so that he has a route map to the country of
sunrise.
Gee, this is really a friend from afar!
As soon as you come to give yourself such a big gift, you must be polite and
let them understand what it means to be at home.
