Kai Fu Han

Chapter 198
The rain was getting heavier and the visibility was getting lower and lower. Liu Xinqi had to shorten the distance around the fleet. Thanks to Liu Xinqi's patrol, Liu Xinqi found two ships as soon as they fell behind.

The naval officers and soldiers on the ship braved the wind and rain to sail at night. The ship was very difficult to control under the strong wind.

Everyone's hearts were hanging in the air. If Liu Xinqi hadn't been riding Dabai back and forth around the fleet to cheer everyone up, most of them would have given up.

"If you can subdue the giant beast in the sea, you must be able to help us escape."

This is the voice of everyone and also everyone’s expectation.

It wasn't until dawn on September [-]st that the rain stopped for a while, and Liu Xinqi finally saw the outline of the coast of Tuima Island, and he was relieved.

It was stormy and windy last night, the waves were strong, the ship was rocking violently, and all the navigation equipment on the ship failed.There were no stars in the sky. Liu Xinqi led the way with his own sense of direction. He was still confident at first, but later he basically listened to Dabai. He could no longer tell the difference between east, west and north.

With the lives of 1000 people on him, Liu Xinqi did not dare to stop. In fact, he himself did not know in which direction he would take the fleet and how far it would deviate from Tuima Island. It was all a gamble on luck and life.

At this moment, the outline of the coast of Tuima Island in front told Liu Xinqi that he had won the bet.

……

Six ships of the second fleet and four ships of the third fleet (Weizhou and four cargo ships) are docking under Li Cang's arrangement. The newly expanded Tumanan Port is crowded, and most of the early ships have returned. It had to be pulled up to the beach and beached to make room on the pier for the larger ship.

Liu Xinqi and a few soldiers rowed a small morning boat to the depths of the water and were feeding Dabai. This time, he was able to successfully save the lives of thousands of people in the second fleet. Dabai took great credit.

If it weren't for Dabai, he would definitely not have reported the news to the fleet to the west and let them sail overnight. Without his own report, the second fleet would have stopped to rest at night, and would have faced a hurricane at sea. The consequences are unimaginable.

If it hadn't been for Baymax, he would have lost his way in the middle of the night last night and would have no idea where he had taken the fleet. The probability of successfully bringing the fleet back to Tuima Island based on his own sense of direction was slim to none.

"Dabai, you have made a great contribution this time. I will find you more wives in the future, and I promise to feed you until you are fat, support you until you grow old, and make you happy for the rest of your life."

Liu Xinqi said to Dabai while feeding.

Both Dabai and Xiaobai are male sharks, and they will definitely have to find mates for them later.

After listening to Liu Xinqi's words, Dabai swayed the fish tail very loudly. The "petite" boat was a little unable to hold up. The hurricane front wave and the waves caused by Dabai wanted to increase, causing the boat to swing very much.

"Okay! Okay! Just stop here today. Take Xiaobai to look for food by yourself in the past few days, and then come back when the hurricane passes. If you can bring back a female shark, I will hold a wedding for you."

After Liu Xinqi finished speaking, Dabai shook his fish tail again, and then took Xiaobai to swim towards the outer sea. Liu Xinqi drove the boat back to the port to avoid being capsized in the sea by the increasingly large waves.

By September [-], branches on the shore had been broken by strong winds. According to the knowledge learned in the previous life, broken branches are a sign of strong winds of level [-], which means that the typhoon is close at hand.

"It's so dangerous. If it had been an hour or two later, we probably wouldn't have been able to get here." When Liu Xinqi was feeding Dabai, Ye Chuan already understood the significance of Liu Xinqi's adventure, and also knew that he and himself The people in the second fleet were lucky enough to escape.

"Yes, thank goodness I met you in the vast sea, otherwise I would never have imagined the outcome." Liu Xinqi was still a little scared when he arrived.

Later, the Yuan Dynasty conquered Japan twice, and both encountered hurricanes, causing most of the ships to sink in the Japanese waters. There were really too many typhoons in this summer. "Now that it's safe, let's arrange for everyone to rest early after the ship is fixed. I estimate that most of the crew members haven't slept a wink all day and night." Liu Xinqi arranged.

"I'll make arrangements right away." Ye Chuan left after accepting the order, and Liu Xinqi returned to his residence alone. Although he had a strong physique, he was still nervous and exhausted after spending a night in the sea, riding a slippery Dabai. .

……

On September [-], the hurricane passed through. The intensity of this hurricane was weaker than the last time, so the scope of impact was also smaller. From the [-]st to the [-]th, the wind force in Tumanangang was already below Category [-] because of the larger trees. It is no longer swayed by the blow.

Liu Xinqi began to organize manpower to repair the ships.

There are currently 21 large ships in total at Tuimanan Port, including three state-class Fu ships (Mizhou, Qingzhou and Qizhou), two state-class sand ships (Laizhou and Weizhou, [-] shi), The remaining sixteen ships are all county-level sand ships (two thousand stones).

In addition to these 21 large ships, there are also two small ships and fifteen morning ships that were previously captured by Japanese pirates. Among the fifteen morning ships, there are nine large morning ships (Guan Ship, [-] shi) and six small morning ships ( Eight hundred stones).

At noon, Liu Xinqi organized a meeting for officers with military ranks above lieutenant officer.

"The hurricane has passed, the support of the second fleet has also arrived, and all conditions have matured. I plan to go to Hizen Country again." Liu Xinqi first reported the current situation, and then arranged the division of labor.

The more than 900 Japanese pirates captured in the previous naval battle of Tuima still needed people to guard them, so eight sand ships were left in the southern port of Tuima that were in poor condition and were not suitable for naval battles. Part of the manpower on these eight ships was added to the third fleet to make up for it. Damages from previous battles; some people were left to guard the harbor to guard the prisoners, and Li Cang was responsible for this group of people.

All captured ships, large and small, were not involved in this trade to Hizen Country.

Five state-class ships, eight county-class sand ships suitable for naval battles, and two boats headed for Hizen Kingdom, led by Liu Xinqi.

"Where's Dabai and Xiaobai?" Cui Wu asked.

"We are going to Hizen with us. There must be insufficient manpower left in Tsumanan Port, so after the fleet heading to Hizen Country sets off, the remaining ships will stop hunting big fish." Liu Xinqi replied.

After continuing to answer some questions from others, Liu Xinqi announced:

"Today is September [-]th. From now on, we will prepare supplies, repair ships damaged in the hurricane, maintain weapons and equipment, and replenish rockets. We will officially set off for Hizen Country on September [-]th, the Double Ninth Festival."

"Yes! Alliance Lord."

Everyone stood up and answered in unison.

……

On September [-]th, Liu Xinqi was playing on his horse in the open sea, followed by three lucky boats, preparing to go out to sea to hunt whales.

When the fleet passed through the waters of "Fuzhong" in the lower county of Tuima Island, a customs ship followed.
