Section 228 Sea Ship
"I know you haven't slept, let's talk!" Tianhao said casually.
It felt bad to be pointed out by someone, and Shi Yong was not the kind of person who was silly. He sat up sideways, stepped on the ground with his feet, and supported his hands on his knees. His entire back was raised like a mountain, his head was slightly lowered, and his eyes were staring coldly at the young city lord from bottom to top: "What do you want to talk about?"
"His Majesty the Lion King sent reinforcements, a total of 300,000." Tianhao raised three fingers and showed an exaggerated expression: "It is said that the Lion tribe is strong and is the number one clan on the northern continent. It seems that corn and potatoes are indeed good things. Your people don't have to worry about food at all. They have a lot of breeding and can easily send so many troops."
A hint of arrogance appeared on Shi Yong's cold face: "You are not your majesty's opponent. The 300,000 army is enough to flatten your Rock City."
"Yes! I think so too." Tianhao's face was full of sorrow, rubbing his fingers like a rich man who was good at managing his family property: "To be honest, I was so scared that I ordered the whole city to be on guard for those days, and all the troops retreated their defense. I was afraid of insufficient troops, so I sent people to seek reinforcements from Leijiao City and Heijiao City, but later... His Majesty's army did not cross the border and turned around and returned to Roaring City."
This is not a story that is made out of thin air.
Tian Hao spread more than a hundred scouts on the Pig Man's territory. The Lion King did send 300,000 troops. They occupied the empty Fangya City, and the faster forward even arrived at the Blackya City. There was no Pig Man empty on the entire land, and there were ruins everywhere. The broken walls left only traces of fire. The Lion Clan scouts chased them to the Steel-Oote Territory. After that, news came that the Lion King ordered the withdrawal of troops.
This is not a plan to pretend to be a fake and lure the enemy into depth. The scout carefully investigated and confirmed everything.
Shi Yong slowly lowered his head, and a fierce and stubborn cold light appeared in his eyes: "Your Majesty must have his considerations for doing this."
"He gave up on you, no one cared about your life or death." Tianhao kept smiling. He liked to use this kind of language knife to stab others hard in the hearts.
"Hmph!" Shi Yong scoffed at this statement. He was too lazy to even look at Tianhao for a longer time.
Since being captured, Tianhao has been to the cell four times.
Shi Yong's attitude was very firm. He did not think that he surrendered voluntarily, but had to do so in order to save the lives of his soldiers.
"Surrender!" Tianhao once again sent an invitation that he had repeated many times before: "You are a person who values love and kindness, and should not accept such treatment."
Shi Yong refused without hesitation: "I am a member of the Lion tribe, not a member of the Niu tribe."
"Your men have surrendered. They are doing well now, having work to do, having enough food, and having free clothes to wear." Tianhao raised his hands and spread it in front of him: "This prison is very big, and I always think it will come in handy. It turns out I was wrong. This place is more like a prisoner-of-war concentration camp, and it will be idle if you use it a few times occasionally. You should feel that it is quiet around you and there are not many people here."
Shi Yong raised his head and looked at him with a cold look: "I admit that you are a good city lord, but this is not the reason I have to surrender to you."
"You can't beat me." Tianhao smiled proudly: "Don't look at that door, you haven't tried to escape. Every time I come over, I will give you such a chance. You are not my opponent."
The two men fought four times in total, without weapons, and simply fighting with each other.
Tianhao would send prisoners every time.
Shi Yong didn't understand where this young man got so much strength? He was possessed by a god! Speaking of which, he was also a famous warrior of the lion clan. His pampered life did not make Shi Yong lazy. He would get up early every day to exercise. In the past, when he was in the Broken Golden City, the three guards could not beat him, but they were powerless in front of the young city lord and lost miserably every time.
Shi Yong didn't know what science was, nor did he understand the meaning of reinforcement.
He simply leaned back, showed a lazy expression of "What are you doing to me?" and sneered disdainfully: "You spent so much effort to bring me down, just to get corn and potatoes... Humph! Why bother?"
Tianhao had a charming smile on his face: "In fact, I'm not very interested in those two things. What I really want is you."
This was said very ambiguously. The young city lord's eyes kept circling on Shi Yong's chest, where there were large bulging muscles, smooth body lines, and various components full of masculine charm... But then again, the barbarians could not understand the allusion of picking up soap, and they would not understand why men had such terrible intimacy.
"That's your idea." Shi Yong looked cold and had no room for negotiation.
"I knew you would say that." Tianhao shook his head, his face full of regret.
Shi Yong looked at him with a vigilant look: "Why, you want to kill me?"
Killing people if you can't continue, this is a common practice for barbarians. A delicate bone bowl is more valuable than a tough and stubborn prisoner.
Tianhao did not answer immediately.
He clapped his hands, and the figure of a jailer soon appeared in the corridor outside. He walked into the cell with a food box in his hands and placed it on Shi Yong's bed.
The dishes are very rich, and there are also many freshly sliced tuna, fried cod with eggs and fried yellow cod on both sides, a large plate of braised meat including pig ears, stir-fried pork liver, cheese, big bones until milky white soup, and steaming steamed buns.
Looking at the dazzling array of food, Shi Yong asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Tianhao picked up the jar, filled the two cups separately, and said lightly: "After all, you are a city lord, and we have the same identity. To be honest, I admire you very much. There are so many tribes, so many kings, and city lords. Only you have truly seen the dangers caused by the demise of the Pig Clan, and only you truly understand the value of the Pig Clan to the lion Clan."
Shi Yong's eyes darkened and he slowly shook his head: "The troops you mentioned are His Majesty."
"But you are the first person to send troops, and there will always be a gap between the first and the second. You are a guy with unique vision, an opponent that even I must admire." Tianhao raised his wine glass: "I wish you."
Shi Yong's body stiffened for a moment, and an extremely complex emotion surged from the depths of his mind. He stared at the opposite side with his dark black eyes, and for five seconds, he said two words seriously.
"……Thanks!"
The two of them had a great time eating, and a jar of wine soon came to an end.
Shi Yong knew that these foods were not poisoned. With the pride of the young city lord, he simply disdained to do such things.
Putting aside race and war hatred, we should be able to become good friends.
As for surrender, let it go!
...
On the sea east of Panshi City, a sailboat rides the wind and waves.
Zhengjiang is the captain of the ship. He is very young, twenty-four years old, and his strong body has no trace of fat. His body is not as strong as a burly body, but his overall shape is very well-proportioned. The sun and rain coat the surface of his skin with a layer of copper, and he has a restrained temperament.
The appearance is often contrary to the facts. Zhengjiang is actually a flamboyant and enthusiastic personality. This Galen sailing ship is a new product that has just been launched on the dock. According to normal procedures, it must be tested at least two days of sea test, the overall performance is verified in shallow water areas in the offshore and shallow water, and reported in detail to the technical director of the dock, before the official ship's side number can be obtained and included in the fleet.
In short, Zhengjiang was an old man who followed Tianhao from Panshi Village until now. He fought a war and cut off several heads of the deer people with his own hands. He did not like land, and his special preference for the ocean originated from Tianhao killing the giant hairtail fish with a crossbow. Zhengjiang has all the common problems unique to young people and likes to challenge areas that he had never been exposed to. Because of this reason, he chose to become a sailor, worked on the fishing boat for several years, and was promoted to captain.
This is a new ship with extremely excellent comprehensive performance. Even Zhengjiang, who has a high vision, has to admit that the technology of dock craftsmen has been constantly improving and has reached an unprecedented level. The same style of large ships have built several before, but they have overturned during the trial sailing. This time, Zhengjiang, who likes to take the initiative to be the pilot captain, but he did not expect to find a treasure. Regardless of speed, flexibility or stability, the comprehensive index of this new ship is far higher than expected, far surpassing ordinary fishing boats.
The sages of the civilized era once said: "Don't give children the opportunity to use guns and knives. It's dangerous to do that, and it's the case for themselves and those around them."
Zhengjiang is the adventurous child. Although he has never watched "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer", he yearns for One Piece's life to sail across the world, kill all enemies, rob treasures, prove his life value, and gain status.
A madman-like genius driver got a luxury supercar, which is Zhengjiang's current situation.
"Rise the sail!"
“Keep the route.”
"Drag the way forward, go as far as you can."
On the ship, no one dared to question his orders. Zhengjiang has a high prestige among sailors, and his experience and qualifications are convincing. Everyone knows that this is a good ship, with enough food and water in the cabin, enough to last for three weeks. Originally used as a warehouse, it has become an important capital for Zhengjiang to travel the sea and find a new world.
This has violated the order of the chief technician of the dock to "test time for four days".
It's the sixth day now.
Tianhao has always had the habit of promoting young people. Last year, he showed the map of this world in front of all the captains and first mates. Several large pieces of sewn together were covered with lines and words. According to the description of the city lord, Zhengjiang found the territory of the cow tribe, found the Panshi City, and found the sea on the map.
It turns out that Panshi City is so small, it is just a dot on the map.
The curved lines opposite the ocean form the island, but the shape is blurry, and perhaps the continent is further away.
It was from that time that Zhengjiang made up his mind that no matter what, he would definitely go to that strange land in his life.
He has good luck, and it has always been sunny, and the sun is the best direction sign.
The use of compass is not a new thing in the northern barbarian tribes. Including the cattle tribe, we have understood the relationship between attraction and repulsion between metal and magnets for a long time. This comes from ancient genetic memory. The hunting teams of various tribes rely on small compass to traverse the mountains and forests and have never been lost.
Tianhao required all fishing boats to be equipped with compass, especially the captain, first mate and navigator, each with one.
A black dot appeared on the horizon. As the distance narrowed, the black dot turned into a black clump, and the edges on both sides also extended, forming a triangle line far beyond the range of sight.
"This is a big island." Zhengjiang held the wheel rudder with both hands, stared at the front with his eyes, muttering to himself in excitement.
He remembered this direction and this location. This land was marked on the map displayed by the city lord.
The experience of contacting the sea for many years makes people know that they cannot dock rashly. They must first put down their boats and look for suitable deep-water cliffs along the coast, especially avoiding reefs so that large ships can dock and stay.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the boat approached the shore.
Zhengjiang stomped the land under his feet hard, and a familiar sense of solidity came from the soles of the shoe, and a superior mentality that was exclusive to the conqueror arose naturally. He held the sword in his hand, turned around and waved hard at the sailor behind, allowing everyone to speed up.
Walking until the sun sets, I found a spacious and dry cave, and Zhengjiang ordered a rest. The sailors collected dead branches and lit a bonfire. They were lucky enough to catch a few pheasants and two large snakes.
The northern barbarians are very familiar with snakes. Compared with their similar species in the civilized era, this reptile mutated in a high-concentration radiation environment, no longer relying on external temperature to maintain vital signs, but directly turned into constant temperature.
The sailors all knew how to turn a snake into a big meal. They cut open the snake's belly and dig out the snake's gall. Zhengjiang and the first mate shared one. Without wine, they just swallowed it raw. It is said that they can see the eyes. I don't know whether it works. This is a game exclusive to the brave.
Cut off the snake's head, remove the poison gland, pull it hard along the broken position, peel off the whole snake skin easily, scrape off the scales with a knife, fry it with a little whale oil stored on the boat, sprinkle with salt, it is crispy and delicious.
The white and tender snake meat looks very comfortable. The pheasant that plucked out the hair and hollowed out the internal organs, cut it into small pieces, and stewed them in a pot. The boiling broth is milky white, sprinkled with thyme powder and salt, and the coarse bread and jerky brought by the sailors, which made a hearty feast.
The next day, the exploration team continued to move forward.
The search time set by Zhengjiang is two days, and the round trip is four days. The dry food and drinking water I carry can only last for so long, and it will not work any longer.
There were no traces of human activities along the way, including lions and black panthers, but the number was not large. The sailors discovered a large number of hares and many plants that could not be named.
After crossing the first mountain range that makes up the island, there is an endless gentle slope in front of you.
All sailors, including Zhengjiang, were stunned by the scenery in front of them.
Chapter completed!
