In a daze, Li Le fell asleep.

the next day.

The sun is just right, the breeze is not dry.

The grand Jianzhen eastward farewell ceremony was held as scheduled.

Hundreds of monks held high the prayer flags, lined up, and walked out of the city at a leisurely pace along the crowded streets.

Ouyang Xiu and Ouyang Xueer rode horses and walked in the front.

And the eminent monk Jianzhen led a group of monks, walking sparsely at the end.

Chanting scriptures along the way, the sound of scriptures resounded through the entire street.

Li Le got up early in the morning.

Standing at the port, patiently waiting for the arrival of the team.

no way.

He didn't know the way alone, so he had to follow the procedure and travel with the large army.

Behind him was a huge sea ship with a length of 20 meters and a height of about [-] meters. The white sails were arranged in three rows in front, back and back, like a high-rise building.

Under the respectful voice of the people, a group of people boarded the boat one after another.

"Eminent Monk Jianzhen, and Your Excellency Latiao, have a good journey, and I will send you here!"

Ouyang Xiu stood under the boat and didn't get on the boat.

Only Li Le, Ouyang Xueer, and Jian Zhen were on board.

Among them, Jianzhen is an old monk with gentle facial features and kind eyes, wearing simple and rustic red-brown cassock.

It seemed that it was just an ordinary NPC, and Li Le didn't ask much.

His duty is to send Jianzhen across the waters of the Shadow Islands, and he just stays in the Shadow Islands along the way, and doesn't care about other things.

"Thank you, Lord Ouyang Xiu, for your love, Amitabha!"

Jianzhen bid farewell to Ouyang Xiu.

Behind Ouyang Xiu, the mighty city lord's guards shouted in unison: "I wish the monk a smooth journey!"

"play music!"

Ouyang Xiu waved his hand, and on both sides of the port, 20 huge three-meter-long horns pointed at the sky, and at the same time issued a "woo".

The voice is powerful and endless.

"Raise anchor!"

"Sail!"

"set sail!"

that's it.

The ship leaves the shore.

The strong sea wind was blowing the sails, and Li Le stood at the bow of the boat, watching the free port gradually disappear from sight.

This time the fleet to Fusang has a total of 10 ships.

Li Le, Ouyang Xueer, and Jianzhen were on the same boat, and there were more than 10 young monks, and about 50 sailors, including the helmsman, ship doctor, cook, etc.

Among the other 9 ships, there are 4 escort ships, 1 honor ship, and 4 merchant ships.

Li Le's ship was the largest, and the other ships were only half or even less than half the size of the capital ship.

Among them, the escort ship is loaded with hot weapons such as artillery and muskets, and the crew is surrounded by powerful guards. The average level is about 50, which is already the elite of Freeport.

Escort ships are responsible for handling combat dangers, dealing with pirates and potential dangers, and defending the safety of the fleet.

The guard of honor ship mainly took the diplomatic team and guard of honor team arranged by Ouyang Xiu to go to Fusang. These personnel brought a lot of gifts and specially visited the distant Fusang country.

A merchant ship is a merchant who does business.

The fleet is still huge.

But once the fleet is large, it is prone to a problem.

That is... For pirates, such a fleet is too conspicuous.

According to the old grocer.

Major dangers at sea include sirens, pirates, and then the mysterious ghost ship.

Of course, there may also be harsh natural environments and sea conditions, but this situation has no effect on the giant warship that Li Le is on.

The old man in the grocery store specifically emphasized that pirates were rampant outside the former free port, and it was only because of the appearance of the ghost ship that there was a slight sign of cessation.

But that doesn't mean pirates disappeared.

This time such a large fleet went to sea, if there were really pirates, it would be impossible not to see them.

Li Le stood at the bow of the boat, bathing in the sea breeze and smelling the fishy smell on the sea.

Watch the sun rise from the sea level and set in the west.

Having nothing to do, Li Le took out the spare fishing rod in the cabin.

While fishing.

While opening the world map, study this vast and boundless foreign map.

Ouyang Xue'er may be a little seasick, she vomited and had diarrhea shortly after boarding the ship, she was tired from vomiting and sleepy, so she went back to the cabin to rest.

In the vast sea, the sky reflects the water, and the water reflects the sky.

Li Le sat on the bow of the boat, as if he was trapped on an isolated island.

In terms of experience, there are two words - boring.

And just when he was bored.

on sea level.

More than a dozen well-equipped pirate ships with skull flags sailed towards the fleet from all directions, crazily compressing the fleet's activity space.

This is not... looking for trouble, here we come!

Chapter 580

"The whole ship slows down!"

"Protect the monk!"

On the escort ship, several guards signaled for all ships to slow down.

Four escort ships full of soldiers began to sail towards Li Le's main ship, protecting the main ship in the middle.

"Slow down! Slow down!"

at this time.

Li Le is sitting on the side of the boat fishing.

Several sailors at the helm started yelling in a panic.

Someone turned the rudder, someone lowered the sail, and it was very busy.

Ouyang Xueer heard the movement, and quickly got out of the cabin.

"What's going on?" Ouyang Xueer asked the sailor.

"Captain, look!" A sailor handed the telescope to Ouyang Xueer.

The captain of the capital ship is Ouyang Xueer, and Li Le is just an ordinary bodyguard.

But because of his extraordinary strength, the other NPCs in the same boat did not dare to approach him, which was regarded as a kind of respect for his strength.

Ouyang Xueer picked up the binoculars and looked in the direction the sailor pointed, her delicate face changed slightly.

"how so?"

Ouyang Xueer looked confused and worried.

Seeing Li Le stand up, gritted his teeth, handed the binoculars to Li Le, and greeted him, "Your Excellency Latiao, look, there seems to be an enemy."

Li Le put away the fishing rod.

He looked a little disappointed.

It may be because of fishing for the first time. I have been fishing for several hours, but I haven't caught any wool.

Is it because of not learning fishing life skills?

Li Le pinched his nose.

He waved his hand, rejected the telescopic telescope Ouyang Xueer handed over, and said flatly: "No, I can see."

"Can you see it?" Ouyang Xueer was taken aback.

The next second, his mouth was wide open, with an incredulous look on his face, he pointed to Li Le, and then pointed to the pirate ship a few nautical miles away.

Can you see this too?

This is several nautical miles!

To know.

Although the pirate ship was approaching, the sea was extremely wide, and it was almost impossible to find the target several nautical miles away unless the eyesight was particularly good and the visibility was high.

But considering Li Le's almost abnormal strength.

Ouyang Xueer quickly calmed down.

"How could this be, so many pirates?"

Oncoming, at least ten pirate ships!

On Li Le's side, there were only four escort ships. The escort ships were warships in the common sense, equipped with powerful artillery.

In this era of cold weapons, artillery is similar to a cannon pulled on a boat, which can shoot at distant targets.

Of course, if there are sufficient troops, archers and mages, as well as assault boats carrying soldiers, can also be mobilized for larger-scale naval battles.

Judging from the comparison of forces.

With 4 escort ships, it is very difficult to defeat more than 10 menacing pirate ships.

Not to mention defeated, it may be difficult to even repel the opponent!

A difficult naval battle may be inevitable!

And Li Le looked at the pirate ship that was approaching at high speed, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

It was only seven or eight hours before they set out to sea.

It was still most of the afternoon, and based on the normal speed of the ship, the fleet was only fifty or sixty kilometers away from the shore.

But these pirates, like flies that smelled shit, mobilized their army so quickly to encircle and suppress the fleet.

This is obviously...prepared!

Li Le threw the fishing rod on the deck, shrugged, and said, "How do I know? By the way, has your Freeport offended anyone or had any grudges?"

Hearing this, Ouyang Xueer's expression changed suddenly.

Who did you offend...

Ouyang Xueer seemed to understand something.

But the look is still a little unbelievable.

"Lord Latiao, follow me to the front!"

Ouyang Xue'er's face was livid, without saying much, she directed the sailors to let a small raft go down.

Ouyang Xueer jumped onto the small raft and waved to Li Le again.

Li Le followed and jumped onto the small raft.

at this time.
