Father Mavie

Chapter 178 Blockade

Chapter 178 Blockade (please subscribe!!!)

At 4 o'clock in the morning, the icebreaker disguised as a freighter sailed smoothly on the Barrow River, and after a night of sailing, it was close to the mouth of the sea.

In the captain's room, Mavi sat at the table, holding a quill pen, dipped in some ink, and the tip of the pen quickly slid across the paper, leaving lines of marks.

He is refining the "Book of Truth". If it is said that what he has piled up in the teachings are some theoretical concepts, then now he needs to describe them in more simple and understandable words.

Except for him as the original author, I am afraid that no one in this world can better understand the core of the thought that "Book of Truth" wants to express.

This task is also his.

Junia stretched out one foot from the quilt, lay in a big shape on the bed, and turned over after a while, obviously not yet able to adapt to the life of sailing on the ship.

Xiao Hei was lying on the head of the bed, sleeping soundly, while Fat Ju was squatting by the window sill, looking at the starry night sky, the room was extremely quiet, only the rustling sound of brush strokes.

"Are you not sleeping?"

A few minutes later, Fat Ju jumped onto the table and yawned: "I'm sleepy."

"Can't sleep."

The quill was inserted back into the ink bottle, and Ma Wei leaned back, rubbed his sore eyes, and took a sip of cold black tea: "Is it quiet?"

"Fortunately, I can hear the voice from the computer room."

The soundproofing of the captain's cabin is very good. If you don't open the windows, you can basically hear no noise. However, for cats whose hearing is three times that of humans, the noise of the steam engine room is a bit noisy.

"When you sailed in the past, how did you pass the boredom?"

The thought of drifting on the boat for a few months, a year or even longer, Fat Orange is a little unbearable, it is not a house cat, it likes to go out for a walk.

"Play cards and drink." Ma Wei leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes to rest his mind: "No matter how beautiful the scenery is, there will be a day when you get tired of seeing it. You will be very excited at the beginning of the voyage, but slowly, you will get a little bored. Boring is useless. I can only endure it in silence, so when the ship docks, the crew will vent their revenge, either gambling or prostitution, and basically can't save money."

"Is that how you came here too?"

"Please, I'm the deputy commander. Which deputy commander do you see taking the lead in gambling and whoring?" Ma Wei snorted, "We have to take care of the face of the Royal Navy, and try to avoid doing some things as much as possible."

"So it's still done?"

"I'm not a good person. I used to like drinking rum the most. I was often drunk. It's not an exaggeration to say that I was drinking too much." Ma Wei opened his eyes, looked at the ceiling of the captain's cabin and said, "Until I was ambushed that day. , I never drank again."

"Is that the Pereia naval battle that day?"

"That's right. Crowley and I were all drunk that day. You would be excited if you snatched a mountain of gold and silver treasures, but that was the only time we slacked off that night." Mavi said quietly: " Of the 1225 elites of the Royal Navy, only 139 survived in the end. Although we are full of crimes, it is not an exaggeration to say that we deserve to die, but...it is so unwilling."

Fat Ju stared at him, and said after a while, "You guys still won the battle, even if you didn't have any precautions."

"The Royal Navy of the Kingdom of Windsor is the top navy in the world. We are equipped with the latest weapons at that time, and the ships we ride on are also made of steel. Why should we lose?" Ma Wei took a deep breath: "The world thinks that we have won, He is a hero, but we are the only ones who think we have lost. What makes us most angry is that King Rhodes IV only paid a meager pension to our dead companions, and even before the execution, he did not receive the news Willing to pay the ransom, admitting we are royally sanctioned privateers."

"So that's why you intend to launch a revolution." Fat Ju suddenly realized.

Before, it had never heard Mawei mention the matter of the Pereia naval battle, and Mawei kept silent about it, and didn't want to tell the story at that time at all, as if it was an indelible stain in his service career.

现在
Fat Orange finally understood the reason.

"If I were to go back to that moment again, we would definitely be able to defeat the enemy fleet." Ma Wei shook his head: "Forget it, what are you talking about? The past is already in the past. How can there be regret medicine in the world?"

Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
The door of the captain's cabin was suddenly knocked forcefully, and Junia, who was sleeping soundly, sat up suddenly, her eyes were full of bewilderment, and there were traces of saliva flowing from the corner of her half-open mouth.

"Is the cake baked?" She blurted out.

"No, we have to wait a while," Ma Wei coaxed quickly.

"Oh, then I'll have some chocolate chip cookies first"

With a plop, Junia fell asleep.

Ma Wei opened the door, made a silent gesture to Yakov, who had a serious expression and disheveled hair, who had just woken up, and closed the door behind his back.

"What happened?"

"We're at the mouth of the sea." Yakov said succinctly: "The lookout on duty saw the ships of the Royal Navy, and they were approaching us."

"It's tightly locked down"

Four o'clock in the morning is the darkest hour of the day, and it is extremely difficult to detect ships with lights out on the sea, but the Royal Navy found them in the first place, which proves that there are no loopholes in the sea blockade. Let your guard down.

Without hesitation, Ma Wei directly pulled up Levin next door who had just fallen asleep, and asked him to disguise the crew members one by one, so as not to be found out that the crew members were Eastern Slavs.

Dino got up too, walked out of the room, put on an expensive handmade suit, his hair was scrupulously combed and shiny.

Ma Wei was not idle either, he pulled out a captain's cap and put it on his head, put on his coat, and came to the deck.

Under the quiet night sky, two tall battleships approached the icebreaker, one on the left and one on the right, and the black gun barrel on the side of the ship was aimed at Ma Wei and the others. Under the leadership of the officer, boarded the icebreaker.

The navy lieutenant with a gold rim tattooed on his cuff looked around at the people on the deck, raised the brim of his hat, and asked in a deep voice, "Who is the captain?"

"I'm."

Ma Wei stepped forward and asked, "Is there any question, Mr. Lieutenant?"

The lieutenant saluted perfunctorily, and said: "According to the wartime regulations, all merchant ships must obtain customs clearance certificates, and they are not allowed to go to sea between 1:5 and [-]:[-] in the morning. You have violated the regulations."

"Sorry sorry."

Dino greeted him with a smile, and skillfully took out a rolled-up document from his arms and handed it to the lieutenant: "I'm really sorry, sir, the river flow is a bit fast today, more than half an hour earlier than the original time to go to sea. We have no intention of violating the regulations, please forgive me."

"Certificate of passage issued by the Royal Capital Customs?" The lieutenant of the Navy opened the document and couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "If you set off from the Royal Capital, you shouldn't pass through this sea area. What cargo is on board? Where are you going?"

"There is no cargo on board. We are a free merchant ship from the capital. We just finished unloading in Waterford City yesterday. This time we plan to go to the Kingdom of Mysore to buy spices." Dino quickly replied.

The lieutenant glanced at him, then moved his eyes to the cabin, and waved his hand:
"Go in and check!"

 Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone~~~
