Great Song Pirate

Chapter 489 Captive
A subordinate who looked like a small boss quickly replied: "Reporting to my lord, when we were blown here this morning, the ship hit a rock and we had to abandon the ship and go ashore. , was finally swept away by the big waves, and a dozen brothers were also swept away, but most of the brothers still rushed to the beach, and they are all fine now! The little ones thought they would never see the lord again, but they didn’t expect In just over half a day, the lord has arrived here!" Speaking of this, the little leader almost burst into tears.

Seeing that he was emotional, Xu Yi could understand his mood, so he went up and patted him on the shoulder and said, "You should be lucky. You just happened to be blown to this island. This is what we were looking for, so that's why you are so lucky." See you soon, well, your captain is a man, I will remember him, you and other brothers can add to other ships." For Xu Yi, talent is the most important thing now, and losing a ship is not a big deal. No matter what the big deal, getting dozens of brothers back is more important than anything else.

The leader of the ship in distress received the order and called the brothers on his ship to report to Wang Feng and wait for reassignment. Xu Yi called Cui Yan and said: "Arrange some water ghost brothers to dive down tomorrow and take the important people on the ship. Salvage the thing, and then completely destroy the ballista on this ship, so that no one can take it away, it is better to have fewer people to learn how to make this thing!" Xu Yi has always kept things secret Pay attention to.

After Cui Yan got the order, he immediately asked Sun Hai to arrange this matter. Xu Yi stood on the shore and looked around here. The whole island was covered by lush subtropical forests and large mangrove swamps. He had never been here before, only with the map The little knowledge I learned on the Internet could not determine which island this island was, so I could only shake my head and give up, ordering the people who first landed on the island to disperse their vigilance, and then ordered the fleet to rest on the shore, especially those infantry soldiers. Give them a chance to breathe, otherwise, continue sailing, and these people will collapse if they don't reach the place.

Soon the ships of the fleet came ashore one after another, and a large number of troops flocked to the shore. Many infantry soldiers who were frightened by the strong wind and waves wanted to lie on the ground and kiss the earth as soon as they landed, shouting that they still feel more down-to-earth, which caused a lot of trouble. The sailors laughed a lot, but they were not angry, after all, they were all brothers, and even if they laughed, it was kind.

As soon as Xiao Jianfeng stopped the boat, he ran down from the boat in three steps at a time. Seeing that many people had landed, he was embarrassed to lie on the ground and shouted long live, but he stamped his feet vigorously and took a deep breath. Fan, take it easy!It’s better to go ashore and feel more at ease, but when many people first landed, they can’t immediately adapt to this down-to-earth feeling. When walking, they feel that one foot is deep and the other is shallow, and they can’t walk steadily. Most people have experienced it, so it is not surprising that people need to adjust to adapt.

"Li Bo! This island is not small. Tell your poisonous snakes to spread out along the coast and search the two wings to see if there are any aborigines here. It's also good to know the situation here!" Xu Yi whispered to Li Bo. arrive.

Li Bo nodded immediately, then left quickly, recruited the poisonous snake brigade he had formed from the crossbar, and then asked Li Qingyuan and Liu Da to lead some people to act immediately.

These people are all elites selected by Li Bo from the Fubo army, and after his so-called devil training, they are even more determined. Although they have gone through this big storm, it seems that there is no Affecting them generally, after receiving the order, they immediately split up and acted.

After a large number of people landed on the island, the coast suddenly became lively. Some people went to the nearby to collect some branches and lit a bonfire, and the pot started to boil water for cooking. Everyone tossed all day and night, and there was almost no time. What to eat, many people are already very hungry right now.

Especially those who are good at paying public food are almost on the verge of dehydration. After stepping ashore, most of these people recovered from the feeling of seasickness, and immediately felt hungry. They sat around the campfire and looked into the pot. Cooked porridge, swallowing hard.

The experienced chef just cooked some light rice porridge for the brothers to appetize, instead of doing any big fish and meat, so as to save some people from vomiting without eating, so there are everywhere on the shore in the night. There was a scent of porridge, and the sound of snoring and porridge drinking.

Xu Yi didn't need to arrange things like guarding. Yang Zaixing had already arranged for some infantry without seasickness to spread out to form a cordon around him. As a general, he would never neglect defense in this unfamiliar place. problem, so as not to be attacked by unknown forces here.

Xu Yi did not have this worry. According to the history of the Ryukyu Kingdom he knew, this era had not yet entered the era of the Three Mountains, let alone the theory of a unified country. The Tiansun Dynasty and the Shuntian Dynasty were nothing but The fabricated things are pure nonsense, not to mention that at this time, even the Shuntian Dynasty has not yet arrived. Even if there are people here, they can only be said to be some natives. He has so many soldiers and horses here, so he will not look for them The troubles caused by them have already made the natives laugh. It is estimated that seeing his fleet arrive here will scare them half to death, so he is not worried at all, and ordered someone to set up a tent for him on the spot. , He summoned the main and deputy generals in the fleet to discuss matters.

After hearing the news, the generals rushed to Xu Yi's temporary tent. Seeing that everyone was exhausted, Xu Yi asked them to sit down and talk.

Xu Yi also made a long story short, and simply asked about the situation of each department. Knowing that there was no difference with the situation he had known before, Xu Yi was relieved. The only thing that gave him a little headache was the loss of a ship full of food. It will affect their supplies, so I asked the generals in charge: "You can count now to see how long the food and grass carried by our ships will last, and will it affect our itinerary!"

Sun Hai immediately replied: "My lord's main fleet has enough food on each ship, enough for a month without any problem!"

Xiang Wangfeng, Kong Qingxi, and Diao Bin all nodded to show that there was no problem. Only Yang Zaixing replied with a slight frown: "Although there are food and grass on the boat here, the missing boat is mainly loaded with the infantry's spare food. Our infantry fleet has a relatively large number of ships. I am afraid that the food on our ship will not last that long. The last general has already inquired about this matter. At present, after our infantry fleet loses this ship of food, I am afraid it will only last for a long time. Enough to hold on for about ten days!"

Xu Yi summed it up secretly. Although three grain ships were lost, they were well prepared for the expedition this time. Each ship had its own food reserves. The infantry only accounted for about a quarter of the fleet, and the other ships There is more food on the table, and there will be no problem if it is evened out a little bit. They should reach the Wa country in a month, so they smiled: "In this case, there is no problem. As long as we don't encounter this bad weather again, increase The loss, based on the current fleet’s food reserves, is enough to meet the Japanese. There is a saying that goes well, if there is no food or clothing, the enemy will send us forward! When we get there, the Japanese will naturally provide us with enough food. Food, we didn’t plan to bring round-trip food, this is enough! Besides, there will be a few big islands on the way, if it doesn’t work, let’s add more!”

Xu Yi's words immediately made everyone feel relaxed, but no one remembered what Xu Yi said, "No food, no clothes, the enemy sent us to the front." Anyway, they are all used to Xu Yi now. Some inexplicable slang words that popped up suddenly by Yi Leng might have been heard overseas!But no matter how you listen to this sentence, you feel that it makes sense, and it is full of optimism and relaxation, so everyone laughed.

Xu Yi asked Xiao Jianfeng, who had been silent all this time, if he could adapt to this kind of storm. Xiao Jianfeng couldn't help but falteringly said, "It's okay...it's okay...it's just that the general has never experienced this before. Kind of wind and waves, somewhat seasick, a little seasick! Hehe!"

When everyone saw the expression of Xiao Jianfeng who was always arrogant, they immediately thought of his performance on the boat, so they all smiled. Seeing the smiles of everyone, Xiao Jianfeng immediately blushed with embarrassment, wishing to find a place to sew Drill down and forget it.

"General Xiao doesn't have to be like this. Anyone who goes out to sea for the first time, even if they don't encounter such a big wave, will get seasick. What's more, you have encountered such a big wave, even if you get seasick. People will laugh at you, even I, who often sails, felt dizzy last night, let alone someone like you who encountered wind and waves for the first time, don’t be ashamed, this kind of thing is nothing more than normal, and with your In terms of physique, I will soon be able to adapt to this kind of life on the ship, I know you Khitan people like to drink, but when you are on the ship, it is better to drink less, otherwise you will be more dizzy!" Xu Yi smiled at him, Xu Yi's words attracted everyone to nod in agreement.

Xiao Jianfeng was very grateful for Xu Yi's words to save him from the siege, and his sense of shame was relieved a lot, so he quickly got up and replied: "The general knows the rules in our army, and he will never dare to sail the military rules without authorization. At the end of the expedition, the general has strictly ordered his subordinates, no one is allowed to drink alcohol on board, and those who violate the order will engage in military law! Please rest assured, my lord, the end will adapt to life on this ship as soon as possible!"

Xu Yi nodded and continued: "When sailing, you might as well let the brothers stretch their legs and feet on the deck. This will help you adapt faster and keep your energy strong. Don't just lie on the bed all the time. You should do it when you get there. If it turns out to be a soft-legged shrimp, then it will be troublesome!"

Xiao Jianfeng quickly agreed, saying that he would arrange this matter.

Just as they were chatting and joking, there was an announcement from the guards outside: "My lord, Li Dutou has returned, and some natives have been captured..."

(Today's joke is over, should Ge Da come out with a tray and yell for rewards? Hehe!)
