"The fleet accelerated."
Henry judged the current situation only by the turbulence of the ship, which must be admired.
The same treatment as when they came, they were all locked up in a cabin under the deck in darkness. But at least the food is good. Many people are fat.
The cabin could only live by the dim light of an anti burning lamp hung in the aisle, so that most of the mission members who had nothing to do after dinner chose to sleep.
Eat and sleep, sleep and eat, so Daming successfully developed the Three Kingdoms missions into fat people.
When the scattered footsteps came, the people of the three countries opened their eyes, and then no one spoke. They were listening to the movement outside.
The footsteps are fast and clear. You can hear many people.
Doc heard two heavy footsteps, and a light, messy footsteps, and a slow footsteps later.
Is the escort here?
Abel thought of the interpreter who was called.
Then the sound of opening the hatch came not far away, and then someone shouted, "get in and tell him not to shout, or go to the sea to feed the fish!"
When the voice of the interpreter came, Doc jumped up.
Gasping for breath, he ran behind the hatch in the dim light, trying to see the outside through the gap.
Through the crack, he saw the corner of his clothes, and then he squatted down along the crack.
He tried to look out and saw the vague face of the interpreter approaching.
The hatch was opened and DOC had quickly sat back.
After the interpreter came in, the Ming army sergeant outside the door said, "stay well. If you like, you can stay in Daming."
The interpreter smiled and said, "yes, I know."
When the hatch closed again, Doc didn't move. He waited for the footsteps to go away before he asked, "what's the matter? Who's that man?"
The cabin was a little dark. The interpreter's eyes moved and said, "the Three Kingdoms have found a route with the last Ming people's fleet..."
The rest is almost needless to say.
He found his seat and lay down. He seemed to want to sleep, but his brain was running at high speed.
The cabin became silent, and even the sound of breathing seemed to disappear.
"This is... They're crazy."
Someone in the corner said, "Ming people are so powerful. Even if they find a route, can't they bear it? They have to come out to explore the way immediately."
"Explore the way, explore the way, explore the hand of the Ming army, is the Kingdom crazy? Can the explored land be occupied now?"
"No, Ming people will sink our ships one by one, and then seal us off on land and away from the sea."
"Doc, what should we do?"
"Doc, will Ming people kill us or throw us into the sea to feed the fish?"
"I want to go home. Yes, the kingdom of shit. We are trying to communicate with Ming people, but they stabbed them in the back. Do you feel pain?"
"Those damn guys, they are greedy and have no strategy. What have they got after fighting Frank for so long? Do they still want to fight Daming now? God! Doc, I think it's a crazy idea."
“.……”
Doc was meditating. After those people said they were tired and stopped, the breath echoed strangely in the cabin.
"Yes, we found the route."
Doc knew he had to fight, or if the mission was in a mess, the Ming people would take the opportunity to divide them.
"Our people are exploring. They have found here. I am sure they will go back right away. Yes... At sea, Ming people are very powerful."
Doc's voice echoed monotonously around him. He believed Abel and Henry were listening.
"Their stupid hands are too long..."
"Yes."
Henry sighed in the dark.
Abel was also sighing.
According to their plan, even if Daming doesn't like Tessie, everyone can maintain a peaceful situation.
Now this situation has been foolishly broken.
Sighs gradually gained the upper hand, and then curses came one after another.
Despair dominated the mood within the mission.
……
The sky's seaside, at a glance, the yellow sand is long.
This season is the most comfortable time in heaven. It's a little cold. I feel cool after wearing my robe.
This is the recipe for the four years of Xuande.
"Ashore!"
A voice suddenly roared at sea and then exploded.
"Ashore!"
"Ashore!"
Countless shouts gathered together and exploded at sea like thunder.
Countless ships swarmed towards the shore, and then gradually opened the formation.
Most of these ships carry traces of repair, especially sails.
The new year's sea breeze blew the sails. The sails were inflated by the wind, driving the ships to the shore.
Hundreds of boats vied for the stream, and the cry was full of wild hope and violence.
These people were told before they came out. This time they came out to find the site. If they found it, they robbed it.
They have robbed all the way and are now ready to rob another wave.
So their morale is high, and countless people believe that even if the most powerful devil appears in front, they can tear it to pieces with their own hands.
More than ten riders on the shore were staring at the scene. After a warship took the lead in landing, they began to retreat slowly.
From time to time, they looked back during the retreat, and then saw many sergeants stumble ashore, and then they all became soft footed crabs.
After a little adaptation, under the leadership of the officers, the number of sergeants who had reached thousands began to charge.
"They have too few horses and don't look energetic."
"Yes, let's go around."
"Go back first and tell them that the Taixi people have found a route and our trade is over. It seems that the Taixi people want to beat us. Go quickly."
More than ten riders were divided into three, and the rest were playing with the landing coalition soldiers.
The chase didn't end until it was getting dark. The coalition soldiers only found a pile of earth houses and a pile of rags. They didn't even get a tent.
They regretted it, so they sent people to urge food and ask for instructions on what to do next.
Smith on board was not worried about the safety of the pursuing army. He even summoned commander frank and Lisbon to dinner.
The three ate on the deck.
White bread had long disappeared from the fleet, and the three were enjoying it now, and there was meat.
It was the prey they killed at the last stop and pickled it while it was fresh.
"It tastes good, and those spices are excellent. It's shameful for Tianfang people to hide such good things."
Smith used a knife to cut the hard beef caused by pickling, then put it into his mouth and chewed it carefully.
"It's delicious."
The commander in Lisbon directly inserted the beef with a knife and opened his mouth to bite.
The muscles of his face were twisted ferociously, and so was his neck.
Frank's commander was more reserved, but he couldn't wait to swallow pieces of beef.
Half way through the meal, Smith took a sip of wine and said happily, "this is a good place all the way. When you go back, look at the king's decision, and you can do it yourself as soon as possible. Of course, we all have to remember one thing. The place is so big that all our three countries are still empty when they migrate out, so..."
Lisbon's commander chewed hard and said vaguely, "so let's not mess and compete."
Smith looked at Frank's commander.
"Yes, and there are bigger and more places ahead. I think we're lucky... Let's drink to it."
"Cheers!"
"For the new world!"
