Chapter 29 Setting sail and Newfoundland [Newbies, please recommend and collect]

At 7 o'clock in the morning on September [-]st, the busy port of Plymouth.

Rey stood at the port, feeling extremely proud as he looked at his own fleet on the port, and his heart was bleeding. It was too expensive.

The large ship at the front with three gun decks, 70 guns, a crew of about 490-720 people, and a displacement of 1300-2000 tons is the flagship of the Rhodes family fleet - a third-class battleship "Rhode". It is the largest number of capital ships in the Chinese navy, and it was bought by Earl Moretz for 8 pounds through the relationship of the navy.

There are also two fourth-level battleships, "Conqueror" and "Pioneer" - with two gun decks, 54 guns, a capacity of about 350 people, and a displacement of more than 1000 tons.Relatively cheap, costing just £2.8 each.These maritime fire deterrents alone cost 13.6 pounds, as well as some cargo ships and giant transport ships purchased from Northern Europe - the Kirk ship, a giant sailboat with a length of more than 50 meters and a width of more than 20 meters without artillery.

Just for this seal, the Rhodes family spent 20 pounds on the purchase of ships, provisions, flintlock guns, gunpowder and other weapons. This is the Rhodes family's first investment in the sea. There are about 2000 little white slaves who were educated at a great cost until they were 17 or 16 years old, as well as 580 adult white slaves and 300 black slaves. The value of these is difficult to estimate.

If something goes wrong this time, the Rhodes family will also have to break their muscles and bones, and it will take several years to recover. This is why Rey must be the leader of the fleet. He and Isulandi are the anchors of the fleet, ensuring that The voyage was foolproof and established the Rhodes family's supreme authority in the colonial fiefdom.

As all the cargo had been transported into the cabin, Rey, his father, Count Moraits, and his cousin Harald bid farewell to his uncle Brayton. The three of them boarded the battleship and communicated with each other through the magic fax machine.

It is early autumn now, and the Western Warm Current is still surrounding Yilun Island, and the Northern Ocean's cold current is also moving southward from the northwest edge of the Greco Continent. Rey's planned route is to set sail and sail westward at this time to reach the warm current area and then follow the wind first. Sailing north, and then after the warm current turns around, all the way south into the cold current area, with smooth winds all the way to Newfoundland, not only reduces the probability of encountering icebergs, but also greatly shortens the voyage time. With the help of Isulandi, Rey estimates that the overall voyage will take about a week.

After a while, under the command of Rey, the crew hung up the sails one after another. After a while, the fleet, led by the Rhodes, slowly started to leave the port. The twelve ships of the fleet were driven by the wind on the sea surface. It forms a triangle all the way to the southwest and enters the Mexican warm current in the western ocean.

"chirp"

Several high-pitched bird songs were heard in the sky, and a strong wind blew in, causing the fleet to speed up a lot.

A huge black shadow descended from the sky to the stern of the ship. It was Ishlandi who landed on the stern of the Rhodes with a large wooden box containing the thunder god's roar, and the waterline of the ship also sank a little.The crew was also in chaos, some were screaming, some were running around on the ship, and some picked up flintlock guns...

"quiet"

A thunderous noise rang in everyone's ears, and Rey floated out of the boat out of thin air and landed on Isulandi's back, and Isulandi also nuzzled him affectionately.

Everyone was stunned and froze.

"As you can see, I am a wizard! Keep quiet! Or you can meet the undead!"

"This is my partner, Ishlandi. It can control the weather. From now on, our fleet will not encounter storms and will always have fair winds! Praise God! We will arrive in Newfoundland safely, and you will get the wealth you desire. …”

"From now on, the stern of the ship is a forbidden area! No one is allowed to disturb! Otherwise you will become a coke!" Rey shouted to the crew with an expressionless face and stern eyes. At this time, a dazzling electric light burst out from Rey's hand, and a Ball lightning struck a seagull in the sky, burning it into black coal and falling from the sky. The crew members all turned pale and fled in panic.

"Now go back to your respective positions and work! Send a flag to let the boats behind follow closely!"

When the crew heard this, they all dispersed and left the deck to go to work as if fleeing for their lives.

Rey also felt relieved. After all, this was his first time commanding a ship of nearly 600 people. It was so exciting!Dozens of people in the war strategy game in the game made him busy. He couldn't help but lament that I have never won in the game, but I have never lost in this reality. The performance was so perfect and handy. It was really a rubbish game that ruined my life. Let a person A military god like Han Xin suddenly became a bad team leader, burying talents...

The ship also returned to calm, except that there were still people peeking out of the corner of their eyes at Isulandi and the somewhat frail-looking Rey at the stern, but all of them became good babies.Rey doesn't have to go through a lot of pretending to be slapped in the face before taking charge of the ship. After all, the charred seagull warned the crew of the captain's inhuman strength, and the consequences of offending the captain are right in front of them.

The Rhodes fleet had been sailing for three days with clear skies and smooth winds. The crew members all looked at Ishlandi at the stern with admiration, gratitude and fear.

In today's era, if a ship encounters strong winds, rain, and waves on the sea, there will be a risk of the ship being sunk. Even if the ship is not destroyed, it will be blown off course or blown into the rocks by the wind and waves. If it is reduced to the point where it cannot resupply The deserted island is basically a dead end, which is why the crew admires and fears it at the same time. After all, there are good and bad ways to control the weather, and people are always willing to assume the worst ill intentions of others.

Rey stood on the deck and looked at the floating icebergs that appeared in his field of vision. Rey felt relieved. He finally reached the vicinity of Green Island. Then he could enter the Labrador Cold Current by waiting for the wind to turn south, and then go all the way south to reach The promised land, Newfoundland.

……

Four days later, the fleet followed the cold current all the way south. Isulandi, who went out to explore the road, told Rey that there was a big island not far away, and there were many fish and fishing boats around it. Rey touched Isulandi. Di’s head, fed it some sea fish it liked and then let it go out to continue investigating, also for...

Newfoundland is one of the best large fishing grounds in the world. It is the intersection of the cold Labrador Current and the warm North Atlantic Current. It is rich in fish such as cod, plaice, herring, and salmon. It is said that fishing does not require a net at all. Just throw a basket In the sea, if you mention it, there will be a rich place with a basket of fish.

In 1713, France gave up its territorial claim to Newfoundland and ceded it to China in the "Utrecht Peace Treaty", but the surrounding area is basically surrounded by French colonies, which means that this land will not be peaceful. Making progress out of chaos is where the Rhodes family rises.

At noon, Rey, who was standing on the deck, could see a dark continent appearing on the sea due south. In the nearby waters, there were many fishing boats fishing. Rey couldn't help but cursed secretly: These thieves, I don’t know how many eyes Lord Ma has. Waiting for my people to settle down, I will show you what the rules are. If you still dare to steal the master’s fish after three years, no one will be able to live well...

When the fishermen near Newfoundland saw the huge fleet from the north, they all panicked and fled in all directions. After all, the battleship was not easy to mess with at first sight. It was still a Chinese fleet. They didn’t know what it was going to do. Well?As for why you should run away, this is the wisdom of ordinary people. Running away when the situation is not good is a traditional art. No matter what you do, running is always the right thing. Watching the fun will kill you quickly.
