Since he had to go and check in person to understand the details, the route of the fleet was about to be changed, and Ye Bai immediately ordered that Lu Teyans readjust the route, no longer going to the previous scheduled island, but turning to a small island not too far from the current position of the fleet.

From the comments of other Blue Star players in the chat section, it can be analyzed that there is a shortage of food, and it is only those small islands that are buying food and other materials from players in large quantities, and this is not the case for medium and large islands.

Therefore, if Ye Bai wants to figure out the situation, then he can only choose these small islands, and he may only be able to go to other large and medium-sized islands for nothing.

The small island selected by Ye Bai was near the original route of the Huaxia Fleet, and the distance was not far, even if it was to take care of the speed of the Peng Ze and Yujiang, the Yanhuang had no way to maintain the maximum speed of 32 knots, but the speed of the entire fleet still reached 28 knots, and it only took ~ to 1 day to rush to that small island at this speed.

At noon the next day, the Huaxia fleet successfully arrived at this small island, and after successfully docking the three warships at the berth of the port dock according to the requirements of the patrol, Ye Bai took Lu Teyansi and others to the island.

On the nautical map, this island was not marked with a name, Ye Bai was still a little strange at the time, but when he landed on the island and registered with the dock guard, he learned that in the world of great navigation, these small islands have no special names at all, just one number, and the number of this small island at Ye Bai's feet is No. 026.

Ye Bai didn't know why these small islands didn't have names, only one number, the key was that this number also felt quite strange, the normal number shouldn't be No. 26, how could there be a 026, Ye Bai couldn't figure it out, and he lacked more information, so he couldn't analyze and judge.

Putting this problem aside for the time being, Ye Bai didn't stay at the dock with people, and came directly to the trading market, he came to Island 026 this time with his own purpose.

After running several merchants, Ye Bai finally figured out what was going on, it turned out that except for some special environments, most of these small islands could not achieve self-sufficiency, and often needed to buy food from other large and medium-sized islands to meet the daily needs of everyone on the island.

This situation has continued until now, and there has never been any accident, but now this accident has appeared, that is, because of the emergence of a large number of players, a lot of food and other materials have been purchased from these large and medium-sized islands, and the demand in the future is not necessarily small.

As a result, the food output of these large and medium-sized islands has been somewhat tightened, so the amount of food sold to the smaller islands has been reduced, which has led to food shortages in these small islands.

Seeing that the situation was not right, these small islands immediately stopped selling food to players, and also issued a purchase order, wanting to buy a large amount of food and other materials from these players, which is why players who are obviously not short of food are so eager to buy food.

It is true that these players themselves can buy food in the trading market of large and medium-sized islands, and then transport it to small islands for sale, but don't forget that the player's ships are all warships, not transport ships, whether it is a gunboat or a destroyer level, in fact, the vacant cabins are limited, and the amount of food that can be loaded is also limited.

Not to mention that there is not much food to be transported in one trip, and the profit earned is not too high, except for some organized and powerful players, most players will not choose to do business, but it is different for Ye Bai to sell food directly in the trading section.

Using the power of the system and the particularity of the trading sector, these players don't even have to go to sea, they can get a large amount of grain directly on the port dock, and sell it to these small islands, almost without spending too much effort, although the profit is still very low, but it is equivalent to picking it up for nothing, and most players will not refuse such a good thing.

"Commander, the situation in the Great Voyage World will change greatly, and our living environment will become even worse, so we need to strengthen our fleet as soon as possible. "

Walking out of the trading market, Lu Teyans whispered in Ye Bai's ear.

Ye Bai was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly asked softly: "General Lu Teyansi, what do you mean by this, now it's just because of our appearance, so these small islands can't buy more grain, so there won't be a big crisis, right?"

Lu Teyans shook his head and explained softly: "Commander, grain seems to be inconspicuous, but it is an extremely important strategic material, those large and medium-sized islands do not mention their own grain output, even if they have stored grain before, the amount is not a few, we have only been in this world for less than a month, how much grain can we consume?"

"Even if there is a real shortage of food on the large and medium-sized islands, they can support it for a long time on their own reserves, and there is no need to cut the share sold to the small islands, the only explanation is that they did it on purpose. "

"Deliberately?"

Ye Bai was even more puzzled, frowned and thought about it, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he said in surprise: "Do you mean that those large and medium-sized forces are forcing these small Yu teams through this kind of hand or directly surrendering to their command?"

Although Ye Bai is not a genius, he is also from the era of information explosion, whether it is on the Internet or in novels, there are many such examples, haven't you ever eaten pork and haven't seen a pig run.

But in troubled times, some ambitious guys will move and expand their power through various means, and the same is true in today's world of great navigation, those aboriginal forces that occupy large islands and medium-sized islands, if they want to develop and grow, in addition to tapping internal potential, the better way is naturally to incorporate external forces.

Fighting with large and medium-sized forces of the same level will inevitably trigger a chain reaction, and even if you can't tell the winner in a short time, even if you really succeed, your own losses will not be small, but it is more convenient to attack these small islands.

You don't need to send a fleet to attack the islands, just a one-handed food blockade can take half a life on these small islands.

"But it shouldn't be, their strength is too strong, our people haven't developed at all, if they do it at this time, we won't have the slightest chance at all, we can only become their slaves, if so, what's the point of the system pulling us into this great world of navigation?"

0 begging for flowers

Although he roughly figured this out, Ye Bai still didn't want to believe it, after all, this guess was too terrible, if it was really like that, all players, including him, could only become cannon fodder or slaves.

He didn't believe that no matter what the purpose of the system was to pull so many of them into the world of great exploration, but at least one thing Ye Bai still thinks that the system didn't let them come in for nothing to die.

Therefore, the system will make a lot of restrictions on the aboriginal forces that occupy large islands, and even their effective control of the sea area is only 15 kilometers, and the powerful island fleet cannot go to sea, so they can only be moored in the port as decorations, isn't it to provide players with time to develop. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Since there are system limitations, it is not logical why these guys would suddenly choose to attack small islands.

Lu Teyans shrugged his shoulders and said softly: "Commander, these are just my guesses, maybe they are really short of food production, but I still think that this food incident is just the beginning, and maybe they will use more means in the future, even if they can't occupy these small islands at this time, it doesn't prevent them from weakening the strength of these small islands as much as possible." "

Ye Bai felt his head dizzy for a while, although he didn't want to believe Lu Teyansi's speculation and analysis, but he had to admit that what he said was very reasonable, no matter what these aborigines who occupied various islands were before.

But after their players entered the world of great navigation on a large scale, to a certain extent, they have actually upset the balance between these forces, whether it is for self-preservation or for the ambition in their hearts, they will have various actions and plans.

There may really be a shortage of grain production, but Ye Bai will not believe this reason, and the system directly cancels the sale of grain and other commodities in the system mall, forcing players to only buy grain and fresh water from the trading markets of various islands.

Now the player's strength is not strong, the number of crew members is not large, and the food and other materials that need to be consumed are relatively small, and when the level of the player's ship gradually increases, and even a formal fleet recognized by the system is established like Ye Bai, the consumption of food and other materials will increase to an astronomical amount.

If the system does not have corresponding countermeasures, I am afraid that the entire world of great exploration will have a food crisis, whether it is the player forces, the aboriginal forces that occupy the islands, and the pirate forces, I am afraid that many people will starve to death, which is obviously not in line with the rules and settings of the system.

Thinking about it this way, I am afraid that the truth is really as Rutters speculated, that those aboriginal forces with sufficient food and materials in their hands are behind the scenes, consciously and purposefully restricting them, just like the embargo imposed by the United States on Japanese benzene during World War II.

"No matter, not to mention the aborigines who occupy the large islands, even if the aboriginal forces on these small islands are not something we can afford to provoke now, even if your guess is true, we can't do anything about it, we can only be a spectator, or give priority to improving the strength of the fleet. "

While walking towards the port terminal, Ye Bai whispered to Lu Teyansi, saying all the thoughts in his heart.
