Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

"du~du~"

Just as Lin Yi hugged Lin Wanyu and the other three, the Ocean Star's whistle sounded twice.

After Lin Yi heard these two whistles, he loosened his arms around the three princesses and said to them: "The ship is about to leave."

As if to confirm Lin Yi's words, as soon as he finished speaking, Ocean Star began to move slowly.

The cruise ship first slowly backed up and left the port. After it was some distance away from the port, the Star of the Sea began to turn around.

After the cruise ship changed direction, it blew its horn twice more and then headed towards the mouth of the Bohai Sea.

The three warships originally arranged to escort Ocean Star have left port one day early and are now waiting in the Bohai Sea.

Ocean Star needs to meet up with the battleship first, and then sail out of the Bohai Sea and into the Yellow Sea.

The location of the battleship had been sent to Wang Defu a long time ago, so he naturally knew where to look for the Taizong.

In less than an hour, Wang Defu rendezvoused with the Taizong in the depths of the Bohai Sea.

The two sides first signaled each other by honking their horns before joining together.

At this time, the Taizong was in front of the cruise ship, with two cruisers on the left and right, forming a very obvious escort formation, firmly guarding the Ocean Star in the middle.

Ocean Star left the port at 4 a.m. on the 9th. It was very fast and passed the Miao Island chain at 5 p.m.

Lin Yi stood on the top deck, looking at the trail in the distance, often filled with emotion.

I have to say the magic of nature. If it were not for the temple island chain, then the Bohai Sea would belong to the high seas according to international law.

And it was precisely because of the Miao Island chain that the Bohai Sea became an imperial inland sea.

In order to protect the Bohai Sea and defend the capital, the empire built a large number of forts on the Miao Island chain.

After sailing through the Miao Island chain, Ocean Star has officially entered the Yellow Sea.

After crossing the Yellow Sea, Ocean Star will pass through the Yizhou Strait and enter the South China Sea.

All the way down from the South China Sea, through Malacca, which was newly controlled by the empire, it even entered the Indian Ocean.

At this time, Ocean Star has been sailing on the sea for a week.

The three princesses, who were originally unaccustomed to sailing, have now adapted to the bumps of the ship. His originally ugly complexion also improved a lot, and he was able to walk around on the deck.

After entering the Indian Ocean, the captain of the Taizong, Liu Yuxi, ordered the escort fleet to be on alert. Any ship that dared to disobey the command and approach would be sunk.

Because at this time they have officially entered the territory controlled by John's empire.

Although the John Empire has announced armistice negotiations, who knows whether they will attack us secretly?

It was okay if something happened to him, but if something happened to Lin Yi, Liu Yuxi felt that he would be hanged by his colleagues if he went back.

The senior officials all know how important Lin Yi is to the Yinglong Fleet, or in other words, how important Lin Yi is to the entire Daxia.

Otherwise, why do you think the Tang-class battleship was allowed to escort Lin Yi?

As Liu Yuxi's order was issued, the entire escort fleet began to be on high alert.

Even at night, the searchlights on the three battleships were all turned on, scanning the surrounding sea areas.

Lin Yi was somewhat speechless at Liu Yuxi's obviously stressful reaction.

But Lin Yi also knew that even if he tried to persuade him now, it would be useless, so Lin Yi didn't say anything more.

However, when the fleet entered the Indian Ocean, Lin Yi clearly felt something different.

It seems that the waves in the Indian Ocean are bigger than those in the Pacific Ocean.

After crossing the entire Indian Ocean, Lin Yi arrived at the Arabian Peninsula.

Lin Yi ordered the fleet to slow down a little. He wanted to see where the famous rich people of later generations would gather.

However, when Lin Yi saw some skinny Arabs looking for something on the coast through a high-powered telescope, Lin Yi became a little curious.

"Wang Defu, what are those people doing?" Lin Yi looked at Wang Defu and asked.

Wang Defu picked up the telescope and took a look, and then said to Lin Yi: "They are looking for a kind of shellfish that clings to the rocks. That kind of shellfish is very popular in Europe."

Wang Defu often runs a line. Of course he knows what those Arabs are doing.

"Sea shells? Are there any sea shells here?" Lin Yi was a little surprised. If he remembered correctly, their current location was the southwest side of the Arabian Peninsula, which is where Yemen would later be located.

Are there any shells here? What?

Lin Yi expressed that he was not sure. His understanding of Arabia was only at the level of a piece of cloth above my head, the richest person in the world.

Hearing Lin Yi's words, Wang Defu smiled, and then said to Lin Yi: "Your Majesty, not only are there delicious seashells here, but they are also rich in a kind of pearls."

These things are very popular and very expensive in Europe, but here, these things are worthless.

When Lin Yi heard Wang Defu's words, his mind suddenly became active.

The life of Arabs living in the Arabian Peninsula today is not very good.

Since John's empire had occupied Egypt and made Egypt his colony, it began to penetrate the areas controlled by the Ottoman Empire.

Osman was relatively weak. Faced with the penetration of John's empire, he had no choice but to retreat.

But just when the John Empire was preparing to occupy this place, World War I broke out, and the John Empire mobilized a large number of troops to return to the homeland to fight.

After the First World War, the John Empire, which was greatly weakened, was no longer able to occupy this place.

Since the Ottomans also participated in the war, and in the view of the Ottoman high-level officials, there were no resources in this area, only endless desert, they completely abandoned this area and did not send troops to garrison it.

So, to put it simply, although the Arabian Peninsula is still Ottoman land, it has actually become an ownerless land.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi suddenly felt something in his heart. He felt that now seemed to be the best opportunity for Daxia to take control of this place.

"Give electricity to Liu Yuxi and tell him that I want to eat the shellfish here tonight and ask him to buy some. By the way, I will bring a local here. I have something to ask."

When Wang Defu heard Lin Yi's words, he was a little stunned.

He followed Lin Yi for a short time, but he also knew that this man was definitely not a person who was greedy for pleasure.

Why did I suddenly say that I want to eat seashells here today?

However, Wang Defu then thought about it, why not just eat a seashell? He is a prince, so he should eat a seashell.

So Wang Defu responded quickly and gave an order to the sailor on the top of the ship who was responsible for semaphore communication, asking him to send signals to the warships in front.

Soon Liu Yuxi learned of Lin Yi's order, and his expression suddenly became very strange.

He also thought that Lin Yi was not the kind of person to enjoy life, so why did he suddenly want to eat seashells?

However, Liu Yuxi didn't think it was a big deal. What's wrong with eating seashells? The prince has worked hard for the country, so what's wrong with eating seashells?

So Liu Yuxi ordered the warship to slow down, put down a small boat, and asked them to drive to the coast and buy some directly.

As for Lin Yi, if he wants to find local people, this is easy to do. He can just bring a local chief here.
