Chapter 197 White Shark Knight
"How much time do you think we have left?" Liu Xinqi asked.

"One day and one night at most, six hours at the most." the guide replied.

"Arrange a ship to take me to the open sea." Liu Xinqi arranged.

"What do you want to do?" Cui Wu asked.

"Before the card is attached, Baymax's speed can reach up to 280 miles per hour. After the card is attached, it can be doubled at least. In one hour, he can travel the distance of the fleet for nearly three days. Even if he cannot maintain the highest speed all the time, he can still It's a two-day journey." Liu Xinqi explained: "There are still nearly two hours before dark. I will drive Dabai to the west to look for it. If I can encounter the second fleet, I can guide them to sail overnight. Save their lives, which means the lives of thousands of people.”

The lives of thousands of people were at stake. Cui Wu did not dare to persuade Liu Xinqi not to take risks, and immediately turned around to arrange the ships.

Liu Xinqi took a boat to the open sea and called Dabai to swim over. Cui Wu carefully prepared some whale meat and spent half an hour feeding Dabai. Liu Xinqi rode on Dabai's back, sat in front of the fins, and lay down. .

After Dabai waited for Liu Xinqi to sit firmly, he immediately took him to swim towards the west at a very fast speed. Liu Xinqi observed that the speed of leaving Tuima Island was estimated to be more than [-] kilometers per hour.

"I hope I can catch up!" Liu Xinqi prayed silently in his heart.

……

On the vast sea, Liu Xinqi lay on Dabai's back and observed the surrounding sea, while thinking wildly in his mind.

This time when I go back to Dengzhou, I must solve the communication problem. Even if I attach a general card to the homing pigeon, I must increase its communication distance and speed.

However, the lifespan of homing pigeons is too short, only five years, and they are not birds of prey, so they may be hunted by other birds of prey.

Perhaps eagles can be used for communication. Liu Xinqi read a post in his previous life and knew that eagles are the longest-lived birds and can live up to 50 years. Moreover, the scientific name of eagles in the Chinese context is the black-eared kite, which is a very distributed species in the world. A wide range of birds can be easily caught.

China has always had eagle training, and the story of the eagle being cooked is widely circulated. The trained eagle is very humane and can perform tasks such as reconnaissance and letter delivery.

Thinking of this, Liu Xinqi looked around the sea again and considered whether to add a kind of sea communication bird, such as seagulls or terns. The lifespan of such large seabirds is not short.

Suddenly Liu Xinqi saw a mast top appearing on the sea in front of him. He immediately concentrated his attention and straightened his upper body to check. However, after a while, he found that it was just a morning ship, and it should be a Japanese pirate ship.

He estimated in his mind that he had been swimming on Dabai for about half an hour. Dabai's speed had slowed down a lot. He must have lost his physical strength. At this moment, he could not see the shadow of the second fleet. Liu Xinqi became more and more anxious. .

At this moment, a mast top appeared again on the sea in the west and slightly south. Liu Xinqi was used to it, because in the past half hour, he had seen more than a dozen mast tops, and none of them were ships of the second fleet.

But this time it seemed different. Behind this mast top, other mast tops appeared one after another, and then the silhouette of the ship slowly emerged from the sponge. It was not the single mast of the early ship, but a lucky ship, with three masts on a ship.

"Qizhou number?" Liu Xinqi shouted in surprise.Immediately command Dabai to swim in the direction of the fleet.

The closer they got, the more Liu Xinqi confirmed that this was the second fleet of the Xinghan League. There were three lucky ships in total, and the others were also large sand ships.

……

"Captain! Someone is riding a big fish on the sea and swimming toward the fleet." The lookout on the Mizhou shouted to Ye Chuan, the leader of the second fleet.

"Riding a fish?" Ye Chuan wondered: "Are you dazzled?"

Ye Chuan heard the lookout's announcement, climbed up to the upper deck, took the monocular, and looked in the direction pointed by the lookout. He actually saw a man riding a big fish on the sea, swimming towards here. .

"This person looks so familiar." Ye Chuan muttered. "Let me take a look." Jiao Rui took the telescope and looked at it for a while: "Leader?"

"Alliance leader?!"

Ye Chuan said in surprise.

Continuing to approach, Jiao Rui finally confirmed: "It is really the leader of the alliance. He is actually riding a big fish. What a magical trick!!"

As Liu Xinqi got closer and closer, other people in the fleet could already tell with the naked eye, and the whole fleet immediately became commotion.

"Look! Look! The leader is riding a big fish!"

"Really! You swim so fast!!"

"What a big fish!!"

……

Liu Xinqi could already see the people standing on the bow of the boat, and he was grateful:
"Finally caught up."

When he was about ten steps closer to the Mizhou, Dabai adjusted his direction and swam side by side with the Mizhou. The side of the Mizhou was filled with onlookers of naval officers and soldiers, and the ship tilted slightly.

"Don't look, there is a hurricane passing by soon! All ships are sailing at the highest speed and cannot stop at night. Ye Chuan! Have someone prepare a hurricane lantern for me, and I will lead the way for you."

Liu Xinqi shouted to the people on the side of the Mizhou ship.

"Yes! Alliance Lord."

"Send the order, sail at full speed, follow the flagship!!"

"Sail at full speed and follow the flagship!!"

The order was passed back by the signal hand, and then Jiao Rui handed a windproof oil lamp from the ship.This kind of windproof oil lamp evolved from the horse lantern. In the past, white paper was used to block the wind. After the glass was made, Xinghanmeng produced a batch of windproof oil lamps with glass windshield, which can be used at sea and are not afraid of flooding.

Liu Xinqi raised the oil lamp with one hand and clung to Dabai's smooth back with the other, barely holding his balance. Fortunately, it was not sailing at full speed before. Because he had to lead the fleet, Dabai swam very slowly and steadily.

It is estimated that after this time, his title of "White Shark Knight" will definitely spread.

As time goes by, the wind at sea becomes stronger and stronger. Fortunately, God still gives people a way to survive. The typhoon should come from the south. The cyclone rotates clockwise. The wind direction reaches the Koryo Strait, blowing from west to east. The fleet With the favorable wind, the sailing speed is very fast.

Liu Xinqi led the way on a large white horse holding a windproof oil lamp, and the fleet followed closely behind. Each ship hung a lamp to show its direction.
After sailing for more than an hour, the sky gradually became dark. Liu Xinqi returned to the fleet and asked Li Cang:
"How many ships are there in the fleet?"

"There are twelve ships in total, three blessing ships, one state-level sand ship, and eight county-level sand ships." Li Cang replied.

Knowing the specific number, Liu Xinqi estimated that after dark, he would march around the fleet every hour to confirm that no ship was left behind.

In the second half of the night, the wind became stronger and stronger, and the ships in the fleet could no longer sail at full sail. The sails were lowered to prevent the strong wind from capsizing the ship.
