Chapter 59: Coming to the Northern Territory

On the pirate side, Andy and Arnault discussed the distribution of the spoils, and immediately directed their pirates to rush up.

"Arnot, whoever we grab the ship in the middle will belong to whom we will take." As we advanced, Andy looked at the warship beside him, stood at the bow and shouted loudly to the side.

"Haha~! No problem." Arnold heard Andy's shouting, laughed twice and urged his subordinates: "Put hard, row hard, speed up, the ship in front is mine."

"Did you hear it? You all rowed hard for me too. If Arnold was given the lead, you would know the consequences!" Andy looked at the obvious speed of the warship beside him, and immediately urged his opponents.

As we were getting closer and closer to the five big ships in front, suddenly, among the five big ships opposite, the three smaller ones in front slid across the sea, facing them sideways.

Seeing the movements of the big ship opposite, especially the small sea boat in front, a row of black holes were exposed, Andy immediately had an unknown premonition.

Before Andy could make the next move, the three large ships opposite suddenly emitted a fire, and then a deafening thunder sound came.

"Is this?" He seemed to see a black shadow flashing past, and Andy's inner uneasiness reached its peak.

"Boom~Boom~Boom~!" The sudden bursts of explosions beside him made Andy suddenly confused, his chest felt stuffy, and he was a little breathless. Something seemed to be whizzing by his ears quickly.

Then there was a violent bump on and off the sea boat. If Andy hadn't been holding it tightly, he would have been thrown out of the ship.

After the sea surface calmed down slightly, Andy hurriedly stood up and looked around, but found that there was only a pile of wooden boards left at the location of Arnot's sea ship beside him.

"Arnot, Arnot~!" Andy shouted loudly, but there was no response from the other party.

"Chief, my subordinates just saw the warship of Chief Arnold dispersed in a ball of fire, and Chief Arnold, my subordinates even saw him swallowed by the ball of fire." A leader with a bloody face ran over to report.

"That's it." Arnold's experience made Andy feel unprecedented fear, which was a fear of unknown forces.

He then looked at the boss's face. There was a long hole on the right cheek, and blood from his face was flowing out of the wound.

"Ah~! My eyes!" A pirate collapsed on the boat not far away, rolling left and right. After a closer look, the pirate's right eye was inserted into it by a piece of wood chips.

At this time Andy discovered that a big hole appeared on the sail of the warship he was riding in. Some injured pirates kept moaning, and no one was going to operate the warship.

However, under the influence of inertia, the warships are still constantly approaching the large ships in front of them. This is not possible. It is obvious that these ships are not easy to mess with. How can we continue to move forward?

Andy was about to order a retreat when he saw another fire, a thunder sound, and then a loud noise in his ears.

He seemed to feel like he had become light and without weight, turning into a little bird and flying into the sky.

Looking down, a familiar warship on the sea blew up a fire, and accompanied by splashes of wood chips, the warship became fragmented - this is the last scene Andy saw.

"The leader is dead!" A terrified shout made the remaining pirate ships look like they were frightened birds, wandering around, and hurriedly running to the distance.

...

This is the situation when Xia Kingdom encountered indigenous pirates before.

"Mr. Changsun, how long have we been leaving Xia Country?" Li Bao ignored the pirates who fell into the water behind the warship and asked Changsun Sheng about the time.

Changsun Sheng did not care about these pirates, but touched his chin and replied: "General Li, it has been ninety-one days."

"It's been ninety-one days!" Li Bao sighed, turned around and walked into the cabin, looked at the map on the wall, picked up the tools on the table and measured them, and drew a few new lines with a stroke.

Changsun Sheng followed Li Bao and saw the newly added tracks, saying: "It has been more than 4,500 kilometers away from the Xia National Football Team."

"Yes." Li Bao nodded, feeling quite flew in his heart, proud of his own feat. He asked Changsun Sheng, "The sea water is getting colder and colder, and you should be about to arrive at the northern cold zone that the Lord said, right?"

"Based on the distance, we have reached the vicinity of the junction." Changsun Sheng, Li Bao and other Xia people now know that the world they are standing on is a sphere, and that this planet has five belts.

Li Bao looked at the map and found that the map only had sea areas, coastlines, several river estuaries, and important towns distributed along the coast. The areas within the coastline were only roughly in the situation.

The information on the map is collected by the intelligence personnel of the Xia Kingdom, but compared with the map of the Xia Kingdom, it is very imperfect, with only one approximate number.

"After the ice and snow island in the north, we will return." Li Bao pointed to an island in the north at an approximate location on the map, which was the destination of their trip.

"I guess I can't reach this year." Changsun Sheng shook his head and continued: "According to the news recently obtained from the shore, the waters near the Ice and Snow Island will freeze every winter and will not thaw again until early next summer."

"I know, so this year our goal is to the nearby waters. In this high-altitude area, it is not enough to spend the winter at sea." Li Bao said his plan and stood up straight and ordered: "Order the frigate No. 503 to go out to search for a harbor that can shelter from the wind!"

Navy warships are all numbers and divided according to the ship type level. Frigates are three-digit numbers starting with 5, destroyers are three-digit numbers starting with 1, and supply ships are four-digit numbers starting with 1.

The cruisers that Xia Kingdom did not have yet, and the battleships in the numbering sequence are two-digit numbers starting with 5 and two-digit numbers starting with 1.

But in the evening, the frigate No. 503 returned to the fleet and reported that there was a sea-lined city more than 20 kilometers ahead, and there was a pier to park warships.

Li Bao looked at the sky and ordered: "Order the fleet to break down on the spot and stop the ship."

It was dark, and it would take more than two hours to arrive at the location where I found it. It was not convenient for the fleet to conduct night sailing in unfamiliar waters.

And even if they arrive at the port ahead, their large fleet will inevitably lead to the bad intentions of running to other people's territory in the middle of the night.

So Li Bao decided that it would be better to rest on the spot for one night tonight, and wait for the next morning, and be prepared before rushing over for negotiations.

"Mr. Changsun, this time the docking is no longer as good as before." At night, Li Bao and Changsun Sheng sat around a brazier in the cabin of the superstructure of the destroyer to keep warm. Li Bao rubbed his hands in front of the brazier, and the red light of flames appeared on his face, making it difficult to see his expression.

Changsun Sheng took his hands back from the brazier and placed them under his belly and said, "That's true. I wonder what General Li's plan?"
