Chapter 65 Sword Finger Chicken Cage Bay

The fleet continued to sail along the coastline. Yu Xiaotian still kept revising the first map on the ship to make it more accurate and perfect. He did not learn professional map drawing, but he remembered that when he learned geography, he had learned some methods of modern map drawing.

Therefore, the level of drawing maps is naturally higher than that of Liu Tang, which makes the maps he draws more accurate and detailed, but this is only a comparison. Without the help of special drawing tools and measurement tools, the maps he drew can only be regarded as a summary in later generations. A slight sketch.

But that's the only thing he can do now. He gave each map he drew to his men to keep it properly with a cowhide tube and take moisture-proof measures. After going back, he copied it on the cowhide, so that he could keep it for a long time without worrying about rotting or being damaged by water. .

Taiwan is mountainous and sails along the coastline. From afar, you can see the undulating peaks and lush jungles on the island. The whole island seems to be completely covered by green jungles.

I happened to see some wild animals on the edge of the coastline, looking curiously at the fleet that appeared by the seaside.

Yu Xiaotian held the ship's port and observed the situation on the island. This place, which the Chinese regard as a treasure island, is really ill-fated. In its 300-year history, it has not returned to the motherland for a long time, isolated from the sea, and has become an indelible pain in the hearts of countless generations.

In history, there have been Dutch, Spaniards and Japanese who have occupied this place, and it is also the place where Zheng Chenggong became famous. He used it as a base to fight against the Manchu Qing Taran. However, when it was included in the territory of the mainland, it was forcibly occupied by the Japanese at the end of the Qing Dynasty. It has just been withdrawn, but because it is well known The reason is that it is isolated from the mainland again.

So much so that he, a descendant, is also very strange to this place and has never set foot on this island, but now God has given him a chance to come here. If he can do well enough, it is likely to become his foundation.

Although this road is dangerous in his opinion, it is still full of **, which makes him unable to give up and has to try his best to walk towards this road.

Now he is going to come here and lay the first nail on his foothold. For the indigenous people here, he will also be an aggressor. Even he knows very well that if he wants to control this place, he will have to wave the butcher knife in his hand like anyone else, but he can't do it right or wrong. Evaluation, only a later generation can give him an evaluation.

At this time, he vaguely felt that as he came to this era, he had gradually grown from an inconspicuous little butterfly to a point where it could affect the course of the times. When he waved his wings, the wind was likely to bring a slight change to the future direction of this era, and even It can be a great change.

However, the future is still shrouded in a thick fog. He can only faintly see a glimpse of it, but he can't see the future clearly.

But this did not affect Yu Xiaotian's decision. He suddenly thought of a famous saying that he forgot who said it. Don't give up doing it for fear of failure!

Many things in the world are only unexpected and impossible. As long as you pay, even if you don't succeed, at least there will be no regrets.

So when Yu Xiaotian thought of this, he did not hesitate to do anything more. After taking a deep breath, he returned to the table again and picked up the pen.

After two consecutive days of sailing, they maintained a relatively low speed, allowing the people on board to familiarize themselves with the route, and also allowing Yu Xiaotian to revise the map again.

On the third morning after leaving Caojia Village, a bay finally appeared in front of the sea wolf fleet. On the outside of the bay, an island just blocked the bay mouth, forming a bay deeply recessed into the island. Although Yu Xiaotian came here for the first time, according to the map drawn by Liu Tang Shi, he also knows where this place is.

"Go down with the order, and all ships should be vigilant and prepare for the battle!" Yu Xiaotian put away the map on the table, gave it to Zhao Si and sealed it in the cowhide tube, and then ordered it loudly.

A short and low sound sounded on the sea wolf, and then a warning flag was issued on the mast. The sailors on each ship rushed to their respective positions, began to remove the oilcloth covering the artillery, and took out the bows and arrows, three-eye guns, single-tube firecrackers, * stored in the cabin and sent them to the deck. It was distributed to the soldiers on the ship.

The soldiers of the troops who came with the ship also took out their rifles, fire rope guns, long guns and shield knives, and lined up on the deck, and began to raise the level of vigilance and prepare for emergencies.

Just as their fleet appeared outside Chicken Cage Bay, a single-mant fishing boat sailed out of the bay and met them. Obviously, after the other party found them, he was shocked. After a while of hesitation, it bravely faced them.

When the boat approached, a man put his hands to his mouth and shouted at the sea wolf's fleet, "What do you do? This is our territory. Hurry up and leave!"

Although this guy screams loudly, anyone can hear the meaning of his shouting, and always feels that he doesn't have much confidence.

Yu Xiaotian asked the Sea Wolf to approach them and made Liu Wang talk to him.

Liu Wang walked to the side of the ship, raised his hand and raised a copper loudspeaker. Now this thing has become the standard general short-range communication equipment for their sea wolf, and there are two or three on each ship.

"We are Fuzhou sea wolves. On our way here, we have to go into the bay to replenish water! Don't hinder us so as not to cause misunderstanding!" As soon as Liu Wang opened his mouth, he was full of confidence and rude.

And his voice was very loud under the gathering of the copper horn, and the sound came from far away, so that the other party could naturally hear it clearly.

After Zhou Feng's men on the boat got such a reply, their faces seemed to be twisted, red, and they were angry with red and blue.

The sea wolf actually has bad rules in doing this. It is obviously bullying and does not give the other party any face at all. It is tough to say that they want to enter this bay.

After looking at each other, the people in the small boat that came out to stop the sea wolf fleet softened a lot and shouted with fists, "It's a pleasure to meet you! But this is our place. If you want to enter the bay, please wait a moment and talk about it after we return to our head.

Liu Wang looked back at Yu Xiaotian. Yu Xiaotian nodded after thinking about it. Liu Wang turned around and shouted to them, "Yes, we can wait here for a moment, but you should also hurry up and don't let us wait impatiently!"

After the people on the boat got a reply, they quickly answered, turned around and drove back to Chicken Cage Bay.

Yu Xiaotian ordered the ship to disperse at the mouth of the bay to increase his vigilance, while he ordered the boat to sail to the island outside the bay mouth.

Yu Xiaotian is familiar with the name of this island. He used to read some information about Keelung Port and consulted some information about Taiwan because of curiosity on the Internet, so he still knows something about this island isolated from Chicken Cage Bay.

This island is a famous peace island in later generations, commonly known as Sheliao Island. The island is right at the mouth of Jilong Bay and becomes a natural barrier to Jilong Bay, which can effectively block the influence of the northeast monsoon in winter on the bay, making Jilong Bay a natural deep-water port.

The natural geographical advantage makes it the most important northern gateway of Taiwan. It was once the largest seaport in Taiwan. At the same time, it has also become a world-renowned cargo handling port and the most important fishing port in Taiwan.

In a word, the natural geographical advantages make this place a place where merchants and pirates like to dock, rest, replenish water and repair ships from the past to the future.

And when the Japanese pirates were rampant in the past, it was also one of the old nests of the Japanese pirates. The Japanese pirates hid here and used this place as a base to set out for the great plunder along the coast of China. After being hit by the Ming Dynasty officials and soldiers, they fled back here to hide and used it as their paradise.

However, with the gradual decline of the Japanese pirates, it is gradually deserted. Although there are still many pirates on the coast of China, which are habitually called Japanese pirates by people on the land, most of these pirates are also pirates, which is far less harmful than the previous Japanese pirates.

Nowadays, the originally lively Chicken Cage Bay has become less noticed. Only passing merchant ships or pirates will berth here to avoid the wind or rest. After the early stage of the investigation, it can be seen that this place is temporarily controlled by a pirate surnamed Zhou, but the pirate surnamed Zhou's strength Very weak, in total, there is only one larger sea boat, and the rest are all small boats, which are no match for Yu Xiaotian at all.

This is also the sin of a man's innocence! In the case that a person does not have enough strength, once he possesses a treasure that does not match his ability, this is a crime. Zhou has a good vision here. The fault is that his strength is not strong enough to protect here at all, but now he is targeted by Yu Xiaotian.

Yu Xiaotian looked at the Peace Island outside Jilong Bay. Now he is deeply inconvenient without a telescope. A little farther away, he can't see clearly and can only see some of the situation on the shore of Peace Island.

(The fever subsided last night, and the fever was a little low in the morning, but the temperature dropped a little. It's a good phenomenon. I hope it can continue to get better today! I'm so worried!)
