Back on the boat, the surrounding sea fog gradually dissipated, the Tulip sank slowly, a round of bright moon shone in the sky, and Zhang Tuohai was able to find the course again.

Zhang Tuohai corrected his course and continued to drive in the direction of Hongshi Island.

At the same time, he asked the crew to rest in shifts. According to this speed, they will be able to reach Redstone Island tomorrow. At that time, they may be intercepted by the Targaryen family's fleet, and there may be a hard battle at that time.

It's okay not to rest.

The lights in the ship were extinguished, and there was hardly any light except the fire in the galley.

Under the blowing of the sea breeze, the White Bird rushed towards the Red Stone Island.

Under Zhang Tuohai's uninterrupted voyage, Zhang Tuohai finally came to Hongshi Island.

Although he had already seen the terrain on the sea chart, when he actually came to the vicinity of Hongshi Island, he really understood why this is the main throat of Kazhu Xiayahai and Leiminghai.

fantuantanshu.

The middle of Xia Yahai and Leiming Sea is not a wide waterway, but is almost cut off by a long strip of land. This land becomes narrower as it gets closer to the middle, and stops abruptly at a distance of about ten kilometers between the two lands.

And Hongshi Island is just stuck in the middle of the two.

In other words, if you want to enter Xia Yahai from Thunder Sea, you have to go through the less than five kilometers of waterways on both sides of Hongshi Island.

Looking at the tall forts and large-caliber coastal defense guns on Hongshi Island, Zhang Tuohai was sure that the entire waterway was within the range of the Hongshi Island coastal defense guns.

If you want to pass Redstone Island, you must withstand the attack of this kind of coastal defense artillery.

Looking at the indistinct number of coastal defense guns, Zhang Tuohai felt that his White Bird might be sunk halfway.

Therefore, if you want to pass through the waterway and go to Xia Yahai, you must destroy a fort.

But the fort was built on a high mountain, and if you want to destroy it, you must attack it from the land.

But the high mountain where the fort is located is surrounded by cliffs, and there is only one winding mountain road to go up the mountain. This mountain road is hidden in the red stone city in the center of the island.

"Sure enough, we're going ashore again."

Zhang Tuohai woke up those crew members, changed the ship's plate, and everyone on board the uniform of the captured lobster soldiers. Zhang Tuohai also changed into the clothes of an imperial navy captain and a huge three-cornered hat, and headed towards Hongshi City. sailing to the port.

The boat slowly stopped at the pier of Redstone City, and a group of Unsullied people dressed in lobsters and uniforms filed down from the boat and stood in a neat square formation.

Zhang Tuohai walked down from the boat slowly, wearing white gloves in his hands, and matching rapiers and muskets on his waist.

"May I ask who you are and why you came to Hongshi Island?" A person in charge of the port ran over and asked.

Snapped!

Zhang Tuohai slapped the other party directly, and then put the musket on the other party's head: "Can't you see who we are? The Imperial Royal Navy! Do we have to report to you for what we do? Get out!"

After Zhang Tuohai finished speaking, he kicked that guy aside, and then swaggered towards the City Lord's Mansion.

The Unsullied followed Zhang Tuohai in a neat line.

The person in charge of the port looked at Zhang Tuohai's unscrupulous rampage and walked straight towards the City Lord's Mansion. He estimated that this person might be an important figure in the navy, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions. …

There is almost no difference between the imperial navy and pirates in this era. Moreover, this place is too far away from the core area of ​​the empire. It is nothing at all to die, and no one will care.

Therefore, for the sake of his own life, the person in charge of the port pretended not to see it, and left everything to the people above to worry about.

Zhang Tuohai walked on the street with his head held high and heaved a sigh of relief.

He was worried just now, what if the Targaryen family didn't recognize him as an imperial navy.

Now it seems that the tiger skin of the Imperial Royal Navy is still big enough to cover him.

A group of people walked quickly to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. Someone had already informed that the gate of the City Lord's Mansion was opened, and the owner inside, the City Lord Horton Targaryen, who was guarding the place, was already standing in front of the door.

"Welcome to Redstone City, everyone. We have prepared a welcome dinner for you."

Zhang Tuohai nodded pretendingly, and strode inside, while Horton followed beside him.

A long table had been set up in the hall long ago, and various delicacies were placed on it, Horton respectfully invited Zhang Tuohai to the main seat.

"I don't know what happened when the great Royal Navy came to Redstone City?"

Holden asked suspiciously.

"There is a pirate named Zhang Tuohai who is wanted by the empire, and he brought a pirate ship to make trouble in the Thundering Sea, do you know?"

Zhang Tuohai said.

"I've heard of it." Holden nodded.

Antonio, the court bachelor of their family, just told him two days ago that Zhang Tuohai killed the direct heir of their family, and now he is the sworn enemy of the entire Targaryen family.

But Bachelor Antonio was worried that Zhang Tuohai had passed through Hongshi Island ahead of time, and had already led the fleet across Hongshi Island to track him down.

"I came here for him this time. It is reported that Zhang Tuohai is going to escape from the Thunder Sea through Hongshi Island. If he is allowed to escape, it will cause irreparable damage to the Shaar Sea. Therefore, the order I received is to Stuck on Redstone Island, absolutely cannot let him escape from here."

"Don't worry, Your Excellency, Hongshi Island is as solid as gold. There are two heavy forts and a hundred guns of various types. Without my nod, no ship can pass."

Horton patted his chest and promised.

"No, I don't feel relieved just like this. In this case, you take me to the fort to have a look, and I can verify it with my own eyes. This is an order from the empire."

Zhang Tuohai rolled his eyes and said.

"That's it, okay, you come with me."

Horton glanced at the Unsullied who was following Zhang Tuohai. He was wearing a straight military uniform and stood taller than a lobster soldier.

He secretly sighed in his heart: "As expected of the elite of the empire, it's just different."

He never suspected that Zhang Tuohai might be a pirate.

He knows what pirates are like. They are lazy, greedy and addicted to alcohol, and have no discipline. It is absolutely impossible to stand upright and look at so much food and wine without being moved. What is it if they are not the elite army of the empire?

Horton immediately led the way and took Zhang Tuohai up the mountain road to the fort.

Holding torches, a group of people climbed up the road leading to the fort on the top of the mountain.

The mountain road is winding and winding, and the stone steps are narrow, which can only accommodate two people walking side by side. At the end of the stone steps on the top of the mountain, there is a rock watchtower with small shooting holes on it. As long as a team of elite shooters is stationed inside , even if it is ten times a hundred times the enemy, it is difficult to attack.

Looking at the defense of the mountain road, Zhang Tuohai was secretly stunned. Fortunately, he tricked Horton into taking him up the mountain. If he attacked by force, he really couldn't take down the fort with the few people in his hands.
