"Land! I saw the land!"

After the heavy rain, the endless sea surface was calm and the waves were calm. The pirates who had not seen the land in the near month shouted loudly on the mast. A group of miserable sailors lay on the bow of the boat and looked at the distance. Without a telescope, they could only see the sea and sky.

Lin Afeng pushed away a few sailors in front, rubbed the small mud ball behind his neck and took out his telescope to look forward. After seeing the land, he immediately ran back to the cabin. He found several maps in the shaking cabin and spread them on the deck. He waved his hand and took down the route record on the map, looking for the exact location of the fleet.

The maps on the deck not only include the World Map of the Second Wanli Year, but also the map marked with foreign text. Lin Feng can understand some of them, but some of them cannot understand them, but the pictures are roughly the same. You can always see some clues when compared. In addition, his route records, he knows where he is.

"The wood bones are tied?"

After his shaking flagship, there was a winding and huge fleet of ships on the sea, with more than 70 three-masted ships, most of which were blessed ships, seventeen large ships of eight hundred materials were blue painted Lin's flying sharks, and the rest were white trough and Wucao blessed ships.

In addition to these local ships, there were also the Portuguese Calavere, Clark, and the Safey dynasty's galleys full of his spoils. Especially the Clark sailing ships that could carry huge amounts of cargo, which were hung far away from the end of the fleet that stretched for miles on the sea.

The door of the captain's room was gently pushed open, and it was the springboard of the flying shark captain Zhuang, who was following the flagship next to the flagship. He saw Lin Afeng kneeling on the chart without any image, and quickly flashed to the side and knelt down with a serious face, saying, "Lord, look at the land, but it seems that the wooden bones are not tied, it looks like a big island."

The wood bones are tied to Mogadishu, which has always been the largest trading port along Africa. Since Zheng He's fleet arrived here, sea merchants often brought porcelain to this place, and Lin Afeng came here is no exception.

He wanted to replenish water and food, repair warships, and sell out huge spoils, and wanted to grab a piece of land nearby as a short-term habitat.

"island?"

The focused Lin Afeng was not affected by the hustle and bustle of sailors outside the cabin, but turned around because Duke Zhuang whispered reminder. He nodded slowly, then searched on the charts and notes, and said casually: "It's okay, even if the bones are not tied up, they are not far away. The flying sharks are dispersed all over the sails and explore the coast."

"I heard that the coast of Africa is the territory of Portuguese, don't take it lightly."

Lin Afeng's voyage was more trapped than all the fleets, including Zheng He, because they did not sail along the coastline, but sailed southwest along the coast of the Mughals and Safi border. On the way, he offended all the people he could offend. The Aragans, Portuguese, Mughals, Persians, merchant ships, warships, and no one in any country was concerned.

At first, the Ming merchant ships from Malacca were happy to travel with such a huge Ming fleet. Some merchants even planned to change their original routes and follow Lin Afeng to trade further away. However, they did not expect that Lin Afeng would not rob except Ming ships, not to mention that all ships on the sea were his prey. Once the sea ship resisted, he would suffer some casualties, and even the nearby coastal ports would suffer.

In the Little West, Lin Afeng's fleet was as if he had entered a no-man's land, and no merchant ship could stop him from robbing him. Until the fleet went deeper and deeper, he was pursued by two huge imperial navys. In addition, many coastal ports were alerted that he would no longer be able to succeed so he sailed all the way southwest.

After all, he is just a helpless pirate. Even if the fleet is huge and strong in combat, without a port, he is like a rootless duckweed. Others cannot defeat him in the raid battle. But once he enters a regular naval battle, he will always lose. It is better to run away directly.

After half of the small Western merchants, they failed to complete their business in one go. Any profitable port along the way would be burned, and those who could be robbed were robbed, and those who could not be robbed would not allow the Ming ship to rob the port. Instead, they would eventually make a deal with Lin Afeng.

The useless warships that Lin Feng seized with the advantage of Lin Feng arrived at the caravan's caravan's caravan with many cargo.

Seeing land and setting foot on land meant two hours for Lin Feng. What disappointed the pirates was that what they discovered was indeed an island.

In the evening, upon learning that there were no ports in the northeast of the island coast and only a few fishing villages remained, they found suitable bay docked ships. The large army moved the food and cargo from the bay from the boat that emitted the unpleasant moisture odor, and sent two flying shark boats to explore separately from the landing site.

"I sailed for three days and returned without meeting."

"This island doesn't need to be very big. It's just a radius of hundreds of miles, enough for us to eat and live."

The cargo was carried until night. Lin Feng's people did not do these things. Those who worked in the coolies were plundered after the ports were captured and captured by the sea war prisoners. These people are now close to three thousand, which has become the biggest uneasy factor in their voyage. Several leaders of the pirates hoped that Lin Afeng could find a place to throw them away, rather than like now.

"If the leader wastes food like this, he will think about it. If the wood and bones are tied up, we can't stop, and we will still conquer and rob."

The leader of the Qiongzhou pirates Li Mao suffered a lot in the past month. In the encounter with the Mughal Empire Navy, his ship was injured in the artillery battle. The angry Li Mao drove a boat and broke a sail warship and fell into a hand-to-hand battle with the enemy. The pirate leader was not at a disadvantage when the ship was hit, but when the ship was hit, he was hit by a displaced artillery. His left arm is still tied with a splint and hung around his neck.

As he said that, Li Mao turned to Shi He, Su Da and other pirate leaders and said, "I have never felt so happy when I go out to sea with Chief Lin, but I also feel that gold and silver are exhausted at this time!"

The pirate leaders burst into laughter, Lin Feng also raised his head and smiled, raised his hand and raised his bonfire and said, "Yes, there is no place to sell the profits of war, and now it has become a burden. I don't know if I can trade barter with me, if not... It's a big port, it's best to barter. If not, burn it, it's more than what we have gained now!"

"Wow!" Shi He said in shock and slapped his legs, "What's the point? Wouldn't it be better to just grab it?"

With Li Mao, who was from Qiongzhou, Su Da, who laughed at the stones and jokingly threw them out, saying, "Snatch it again, do you have any place to release goods on your ship? We are gone!"

Shi He, who was still struggling to carry goods under the light of torches on the coast, said: "Leave those people behind, and you can still put a lot of goods."

"No one is lost."

Lin Feng paused his hand when he stirred up the bonfire, glanced at the pirate leader, drew a circle on the beach, and said, "We are not far from the wood bones. If we offended Yin Zhengmao, we will not be able to go back to Malacca for a while. There are only more than 6,000 soldiers from all walks of life. The loss of artillery shells, guns, and warships will be repaired."

"If all the wood bones can be tied up, these people will farm and repair ships for us, and let them be craftsmen and boatmen, if they cannot trade."
