The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 1170: Pirates approaching

Qin's diplomatic strategy was applied to South Korea, so South Korea can also apply such a strategy to the difficult country of Qi. such. South Korea can achieve a certain balance effect. But do it. Will it affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries? This is not known.

Qin's diplomatic strategy is based on Qin's interests. At that time, it was the Prime Minister of Qin Shangwen who formulated this strategy. At that time, Shang Wen considered how to open up commercial channels in various countries. In order to achieve this goal. The State of Qin formulated such a diplomatic strategy, using Qin’s powerful national power at the time and its huge commercial competitive advantage to open up South Korea’s commercial channels.

This is also true of South Korea now, which is relying on its economic power that has just risen rapidly. Especially the banking power that has just been developed in finance. Let South Korea's strength grow rapidly.

South Korea’s deliberative countermeasures refer to the way Qin treats South Korea to treat Qi. Now Qi will suffer a huge test.

And in the southern waters. The Korean warship sailed for a long time.

The sentry on the lookout post was looking around with binoculars.

"The weather is fine." The sentry muttered to himself at the lookout post. Such weather is very conducive to the sentry to observe the target. But such good weather usually happens before bad weather.

The captain of the warship also had this concern.

"How long can such good weather last? We have to find another place to anchor. Only this way can we feel safe." The captain looked up at the weather and said.

"Captain, this kind of weather really lasted too long." At this time, the first officer said.

"But we can find such a place as soon as possible," the chief officer said.

"En." The captain just gave a gratitude. There are still many things he worry about.

"Not good. Captain. There is a ship behind." The sentry on the lookout post shouted to the lower at this time.

The situation that the sentry saw was not very sure, because the telescope looked very blurry, and the arc of the sea level caused the sentry to be not too sure whether the situation was true, but just in case, he decided to put this The news feeds back up.

"Let me see." The captain said and climbed up to the lookout.

The captain quickly took out his binoculars to check the situation in the distance.

"In that direction." The sentry pointed his finger in the direction of the target.

The captain quickly picked up the telescope to check the target.

"I don't see too clearly." The captain said at this time.

"Yes, Captain, but the ship did appear in that direction. I was not too sure at first, but I found this situation several times, so I think I should tell you this situation. "The sentry talked about what he had observed at this time. The captain held up his binoculars to check the situation in the distance.

"I saw it." The captain at this time. Through his telescope, he saw the problem that he should have discovered.

Through the telescope, the white sails of the warship can be faintly spotted. Because of the relationship between the distance and the arc angle of sea level. If you do not observe with confidence, it is difficult to spot the warship behind.

"The ship slows down." The captain called out loud at this time.

"Stop using the mainsail." The captain called out loudly at this time.

"Stop the mainsail." The sailor below immediately delivered the order.

"Very good. Continue to observe. We are going to slow down. See if he can keep up." This time. The captain patted the sentry on the shoulder and said.

"Yes. Captain." The sentry felt a heavy load on his shoulders.

The captain immediately slid down the lookout post.

The captain has just stood firmly on the deck. The first officer walked over and asked nervously.

"Captain, how is it? What's the situation?" This time. The first officer asked eagerly.

"Calm down." The captain said at this time.

"Speak here." The captain said while pulling the chief officer.

"Behind us, there is a ship. We are not sure if it is a pirate ship. We need to make a judgment. First of all, we judge that they come to us from time to time. When we see them clearly, we can judge that one is almost the same. Of course. , We still have to take some concrete actions.” The captain said his plan at this time.

"However, the possibility of a pirate ship is higher. Because I don't believe it. Ships will follow in this area. And we think the same." The captain said at this time.

The first mate had an expression that he didn't understand.

"I have a compass on board. I don't know about other ships." The captain said at this time.

"We have to rule out this view." The captain said.

In fact, the compass has been used in navigation during this period. The compass produced by Qin State is very popular among these ships. This is the credit of Qin's popularization. There is another way, and that is. Use magnets to rub some steel needles with magnetism, and then pass some light floating objects on the water surface to identify the direction. This method is still used in navigation. The main reason is that some captains are reluctant to spend money to buy a decent compass produced by Qin.

"In this sea area, few ships follow. And sailing." This time. Said the captain.

"Of course. We are not afraid of them. We are warships. They are only merchant ships. If they follow up, we have a great advantage." The captain said at this time.

The first officer listened to the captain's words.

"Now we are going to see their actions." The captain said at this time. Speaking, the captain began to pick up the telescope to check the situation in the distance.

"They are approaching us. Captain." The first officer said at this time.

"En." The captain took the binoculars and looked at the ships that kept approaching in the distance.

"Now we have to turn, if they follow us. Then they are pirate ships. We have to be ready for battle." The captain said at this time.

"Yes. Captain." This time. The first officer said.

"Right full rudder." The captain shouted loudly at this time.

The ship then rotated. And on the pirate ship that keeps approaching. The pirates followed closely at this time and took measures to respond.

"They stopped. It seems that there is something wrong with their mainsail." The pirate captain said at this time.

"Now, we need to keep up with them. They can't save themselves. At this time, there is a problem with the mainsail." The pirate captain said with the telescope in his hand.

"Catch up with them. Quickly. We are going to take down that big ship." The pirate captain said loudly.

"Chasing." The captain shouted. At first, the pirate captain thought that it would take a long time for his ship to catch up with the other party. Because their ship's speed lags behind each other a long distance. Even a few times, I almost couldn't find each other. If you are not lucky enough to judge the opponent's course, the pirate ship will not be able to catch up.

South Korea is a warship, although his load capacity is very large. But he didn't load much. Not like those merchant ships. When they design and build. What they consider is how to carry more cargo. In order to carry more cargo, they have to sacrifice the sailing speed of the ship.

Most of the pirate ships were completed through the transformation of merchant ships, they just reduced some cargo spaces on the basis of merchant ships. At the same time, they added some weapons, but most of these weapons are light weapons, mainly firearms. The artillery is not visible on the pirate ships at this time. It can be said that the firepower of the pirate ships at this time is still relatively weak. .

After sailing for a while. The first officer finally saw the other party's intentions clearly.

"Captain, they really sailed towards us." At this time. The first officer said.

"Very good." The captain of the warship nodded and said at this time.

"We are not going to look for them, now they happen to be looking for us. Very good." The captain said at this time.

"Now, let's prepare to fight." The captain said at this time.

"However, don't leak those artillery to me." The captain said at this time.

"Yes, Captain." The chief officer said at this time.

"We should think of a way to get them close to us." The captain said to himself at this time.

"Very well, we will get a big ship soon." The pirate captain exclaimed happily.

He thinks he will get a big and fast ship, the speed of this ship can surpass any ship before.

"Ding ding ding ding." There was a rapid bell ringing on the battleship. This is not to tell the soldiers to retreat, but to tell the sailors to enter combat.

On the ship, the bell is much easier to use than the war drum. The sound of war drums is too dull, it is easy to be covered by waves in the open sea, and it is difficult for the sailors to distinguish.

But the bell sound is different. The sharp bell can pierce the sound of the waves of the sea and accurately convey it to the ears of sailors.

"Load the shells. Hurry up." The gunners nervously filled their shells on the gun positions.

"Don't open the gun door. It's not time yet." At this time, an older gunner shouted loudly. A new gunner subconsciously moved the gun.

On the deck. The captain thought of a good way.

"Order all our sails to come down." This time. The captain said loudly.

"Ah." The sailor was incomprehensible at this time.

"Hurry up and execute it," the captain shouted.

"Listen, everyone, don't resist. We have to surrender this time. Everyone hides our weapons. We will launch an attack after the first round of artillery attacks. Everyone is ready." The captain said loudly at this time. Shouted to all the sailors.

And all the sailors quickly hid the weapons in their hands. They have to wait for the moment when the gun is fired. They will give each other a severe lesson. Waiting now is the best time.
