Chapter 162 Target Appears
After thinking about it for a while, Yu Xiaotian found that making such a set of flags and lanterns is not as simple as he thought. After all, this thing is based on Morse codes or letters. It is definitely not easy to compile them easily, so he had to retreat and make a set of simple flags first. , follow the example of the officers and sailors and colleagues at that time, and set some simple flags to convey the message.
At the same time, lanterns are also temporarily used at night to represent different meanings in color and quantity to temporarily meet the communication command at night. Although the information load is small, it is at least better than nothing.
For this matter, Yu Xiaotian's hair has almost been tortured, and even Lan'er has been neglected. Suddenly, he remembered several time-travel novels he had read. He was often either a historian or brought a supercomputer. There seemed to be no problems that could not be solved, but if it were him, he would do it. Why is something so difficult?
After the Yellow Fish came, it disguised itself as a fishing boat. Yu Xiaotian still sent Luo Xianbin out as their sentry to monitor the movement of passing ships near the channel.
So they waited here for two days, but the two ships of the Lei family still did not appear, which made the guys on the ship a little impatient.
Meng madman saw that Yu Xiaotian was still writing and painting on the boat, and he couldn't understand what he was doing. After practicing on the ship with the soldiers, he walked to Yu Xiaotian's side with sweat and said to Xiaotian, "The helmsman, you see, we have been here to hide for two days, but the Lei family's ship is still a shadow. No, is it the wrong news from the Li family? Don't let us wait for nothing!"
Yu Xiaotian closed the notepad in his hand and looked up at the sky. It was almost noon again, so he shook his head and said, "It is reasonable that the Li family should not have any information wrong. They have wanted to revenge on the Lei family for a day or two. As the saying goes, they are not afraid of thieves, but they are afraid of thieves thinking about it. The Lei family will definitely not go south this trip. There is something wrong, but the Li family can't know exactly when they will leave!
So we can't worry about this kind of thing. Let's wait and see! If we want to do something big, we can't do it without patience. This time we are bound to get it. Even if we wait a few more days, we will definitely take down the two ships of the Lei family!
Why is the Li family so good to us these days? Presumably, you all understand the truth. To put it bluntly, in their eyes, we are a dog he raised. Although this is unpleasant, we have to admit that since they raise us like this, they want us to do dirty work and bite people for them when they need us!
Whether we admit it or not, this is an obvious thing. If we don't do it, with the ability of the Li family, we can find another family to support us and throw us aside like me, but we really can't leave them at present! So we have to do some dirty work for them!
This is the first time that the Li family has asked us to do something. If we can't do it, who will deal with us in the future? Tell the brothers below to calm down and do what to do!
Let them sharpen the knife and gun, wipe the fire, and prepare all the gunpowder shells for me. Don't drop the chain when you use it!"
Meng madman nodded and agreed. He was about to turn around and walk away. He turned around and asked Xiaotian, "Grandma, after listening to the helm, I was really uncomfortable and tight, but I can't help but admit that you are right! Alas!
By the way, the rudder just said that the chain is dropped. What does it mean to drop the chain? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
When Yu Xiaotian heard this, his eyes rolled his eyes and rolled his eyes. Then he remembered that there was no chain at this time. Besides, the words of the chain fall were also from the common saying of Northeasters. Meng madmen could not have heard anyone say.
So he had to say, "This is a drop! Well... the meaning of where I live is that nothing can be done at the critical moment! As long as you know!
As for the comfort and discomfort in my heart, it's nothing if you think about it! They are using us. Why aren't we using them? Now we can't live without them, but when we get bigger, I'm afraid they can't live without us! At that time, the Li family will become our dog, which is also called a big bully of customers and customers! Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, not to mention that if we do a good job, it won't take 30 years at all!
All right, you go down and follow my arrangement!"
Meng madman scratched his buttocks and turned his head and muttered: "It's interesting to drop the chain. You've all listened to me. The helmsman said, you don't worry. What should you do honestly do? All the guys in your hand are ready for me. Don't drop the chain when you use it..."
Another hour passed, and the sea outside the Cape was still silent, and there was still no movement on Luo Xianbin's side.
So Yu Xiaotian sent a subordinate to go ashore to look nearby, replace the hidden whistle set up nearby, and continue to monitor the movement around the shore. Although there were not many people in this area, he did not want the local government to know that he was cating here with two boats, so as not to intercept the Lei's boat, but instead recruited the officers and soldiers. That's a big joke!
When the people on the ship were bored and looking for a place to sit down and rest on the ship according to the schedule set by Yu Xiaotian, two cannons suddenly sounded on the sea.
Yu Xiaotian was refreshed immediately after hearing it and roared harshly, "All of them have it! Anchor and sail! It's time to work!"
After hearing the sound, the people on the two boats suddenly became excited, like springs under their buttocks, jumping up and flying to their respective positions.
The iron anchor was pulled out of the water by the hand, and the sails were slowly pulled up by the winches under the operation of the hands.
Both boats soon began to move and began to slowly sail out of the Cape.
The helmsman kept pulling the rudder lever, and Hu Cheng, who was a baldling man, also shouted loudly and ordered his men to adjust the angle of the sail, so that the sail began to eat the wind and accelerate the ship.
The two cannons just now were actually two big thunder firecrackers released by Luo Xianbin of the Yellow Fish outside. The two firecrackers were tied to the arrow, ignited, fired into the air with a bow, and then exploded in the air, so that the sound could be transmitted farther.
The Yellow Fish has been staying near the channel for the past two or three days, pretending to fish, monitoring passing ships and looking for traces of the two ships of the Lei family.
This can not disturb the passing ships, so as not to attract the attention of others, and also avoid their peers. Once they find that the Lei family's ship appears, they immediately use this method to report to Yu Xiaotian, who is hiding in the inner side of the Cape.
Now Luo Xianbin sent a signal, which means that they found the target and immediately released an arrow to inform Yu Xiaotian.
Yu Xiaotian did not dare to neglect, and immediately took the boat out of the sea and sailed towards the sea where the arrow rose.
The Seal was temporarily led by Meng Madman. He followed the Sea Wolf with his men, and the fight was full of spirit. He looked at the sea and searched for all the suspicious targets on the sea.
Soon they saw the Yellow Fish on the sea. At the bow position of the Yellow Fish, a man waved an orange flag and kept pointing the flag in one direction.
So the Seawolf and Seal immediately adjusted their course and sailed in the direction guided by the Yellow Fish. Before long, they saw two sea boats appearing far away on the sea.
People with good vision on the ship can gradually see that these two boats are the same as the situation provided to them by the Li family. They are a lucky boat and a catch-up boat. There is a thunder word written on the main mast sail.
In this way, it won't be wrong. These two boats are the two Lei family merchant ships that the Li family asked them to rob, so Yu Xiaotian immediately ordered the helmsman to turn the rudder and go straight to the two Lei family ships.
After hearing two arrows ringing on the sea, the two Lei family's ships have also increased their vigilance. After seeing the two ships, the Seawolf and Seal appear on the sea, they realize that there is a big deal!
So the two Lei's boats maintained a high degree of tension, raised their sails, began to adjust their sails to eat enough wind, and began to turn the rudder to try to get rid of the two boats of Xiaotian.
Although the Yellow Fish will not help much, it also raised its sails as much as possible and stayed far behind the Sea Wolf, hoping to catch up with this operation.
Yu Xiaotian grinned and stared at the two Lei boats in front of him that their saliva was about to flow down. He is now wanting two such good boats, and he can't let them run away today.
"Brothers, cheer up. It depends on your ability. Don't be happy at ordinary times. I think you are amazing. If you have the ability, take it out now, Hu Cheng! Tighten up for me and catch up with them!" Yu Xiaotian shouted loudly.
"Follow the rudder! Don't worry! You can't run away from them!" Hu Cheng immediately agreed loudly. Now Hu Cheng has completely determined to follow Yu Xiaotian. Before the New Year, the Li family found his family in Fu'an County and took their family to Dalian Island. During the Spring Festival, they were taken to Treasure Island and reunited with his family.
Therefore, Hu Cheng has no more care about at present, so he has to go on with this business honestly. He is already a good hand. In the past six months, he has practiced a lot of boating skills, and his ability to serve the sails has made rapid progress. It can be said that the level of wind and sails is already perfect.
And he also brought out more than a dozen good sailmanships. Now the hands on the two ships are not bad. In addition, the two ships are now in a light-duty state, and they have just cleaned up the bottom of the ship, and the speed of the ship is much faster than before.
So it took them less than half an hour to catch up with two full-loaded merchant ships at sea.
The people on the two ships of the Lei family also knew that they could not run away today, so they tried to shout and tried to negotiate with Yu Xiaotian to spend a little money to buy a road. Yu Xiaotian ordered both boats to raise the sea wolf flag, and picked up the big horn and shouted to stop the two ships of the Lei family from the sail and did not accept their negotiations.
The people on the two Lei's boats saw that the negotiation was impossible. The two sea wolf boats had clearly wanted to eat them, so the two ships gave up the negotiation and continued to turn the rudder to escape.
Yu Xiaotian also stopped talking to them and ordered the Seawolf and Seal to focus on the fast-running medium-sized lucky boat in front of them, control it first and then drive another one.
After Meng madman got the order, he immediately drove the boat to the left and attacked the lucky boat on the left and right with the Sea Wolf.
At this time, as the distance approached, the people on the Lei family's boat were also ready to resist. When the distance was close to about 100 meters, the Fu boat and the boat were full of gunpowder smoke and the sound of gunfire.
The Lei family is also rich, and they have also prepared an artillery on the ship, but as a merchant ship, their military strength is weaker after all, and the artillery on the ship is not much better. Needless to say, they rarely practice, they just know how to use it.
At a distance of 100 meters, they want to hit Yu Xiaotian's ship with their cannon, which is basically similar to hitting Dayun. At most, Sanzi can hit it, but it basically does not cause any harm.
Yu Xiaotian didn't care about their shelling and ordered the gunner to prepare and fire at his orders. * his hand also lit the fire rope to prepare, and the archer was in place on the starboard.
The distance between several ships continued to get closer. When the distance was about 50 meters, Yu Xiaotian began to order the firing of fire, and the hundred guns and the big bowls of guns on the Sea Wolf and the Seal suddenly caught fire together.
