Dugu Yulin's persuasion had no effect, in the Tang Dynasty, a country headed by filial piety, the old man's decision, his son or daughter was decisive and could not be changed, so he could only choose a group of the best among the five thousand soldiers, and he picked more than 20 warships with the highest reliability and sent them to the old man, which was a little reassuring.

There's no way, the old man is so stubborn, he doesn't have any room for beak except to do this.

Five days later, with the sound of a trumpet, more than twenty large ships, loaded with sergeants, left the harbor and headed for the unknown future.

In fact, all this happened around February, and Li Chengqian, who was far away in Chang'an, was reluctant to all this, otherwise he would never allow Dugu Qingyun to run to Luzon Island so recklessly.

Because the warships of the Tang Dynasty were all building ships, that is, three to five floors of buildings were built on the surface of the ship, and the soldiers climbed to it when the war began, and used bows or crossbows to shoot at each other.

This kind of boat is flat-bottomed, with a shallow draft, and its stability is not bad in rivers with less wind and waves, so I don't see any harm.

But when it comes to the sea, it's a different story entirely, with a shallow draft and tall buildings built on the ship, which makes the center of gravity of the ship so unstable that it will capsize almost immediately if it encounters a slightly stronger wind and waves.

Therefore, Dugu Qingyun's going to sea this time is completely gambling, risking his life to bet that there will be no big storms in the future, or that when he encounters strong storms, he can find a sheltered port in advance.

Anyway, this former guard of Li Er chose to go to sea to complete an unknown mission.

In his belief, pirates should be fearless, and as the king of the Tang pirates, the South China Sea Dragon, he believes that there is nothing he cannot defeat.

The army of the Tang Dynasty is invincible in the world on land, and it should be even more so on the sea.

Datang 'Sea Wolf' will never stop his steps because of a little wind and waves, he is a sea dragon, but also a sea wolf! Datang sea wolf, fighting the sky and the earth, invincible!

Time passed little by little, and Dugu Yulin, who was in Yazhou, was restless all day, while Dugu Qingyun, who was thousands of miles away, was roaring in the sky.

Leaving the sea, there is no longer a shadow of land, and at a glance, in addition to the vast sea, there are dense clouds in the sky.

It has been nearly a month and a half since I left the Datang Sea, and the surrounding scenery is no longer familiar, and now I can only rely on experience and courage.

"Sons, in a few hours, the storm is coming, are you ready?" Standing at the bow of the boat, Dugu Qingyun, who was barebacked, looked up to the sky and roared.

"Datang 'Sea Wolf'! War! War! War! "The battle cry raged in the wind, like the cry of the indomitable god of war from the depths of his soul, roaring angrily at all the challengers of the world.

Maybe the power of nature is infinite, but it can't destroy the will of the Tang warriors, they are sea wolves, wild wolves in the angry sea, nothing can make them fearful, and there is nothing they can't defeat.

Before leaving Chang'an, the young prince once said to them: Wherever the Tang Dynasty iron cavalry goes, it is the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and anyone who dares to invade will be beheaded by the sword.

Therefore, the sea under their feet now is the territorial waters of the Tang Dynasty, where whether it is a human or a god, as long as they dare to provoke, they are their enemies, and the enemy is destined to be crushed!

"I order, turn the bow of the ship, and sail against the wind! Let's catch up! "The morale has been mobilized, and the next thing is the battle, the battle against the raging storm.

If you can't find a safe haven before the storm comes, you can only go up to the wind, this is the law, whether it is a flat-bottomed boat or a sharp-bottomed boat, you must abide by it, otherwise there is only one way to go with the ship wrecked and people killed.

The preparations have already been done, and what needs to be done now is to find a place to fix yourself, and if possible, it is best to tie yourself to the boat with a rope to ensure that you will not fall off the boat by the waves.

In this complicated weather, everyone knows what the consequences will be if they fall into the sea, and no boat will stop to save people, because as long as they stop, what awaits them is destruction, and the whole boat will even be buried for one person.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, the waves were getting more and more urgent, and the splash of water when the bow broke through the swell hit Dugu Qingyun's body and face, making his expression more and more cold, and at the same time, his heart began to be nervous.

After all, no matter how loud the slogan is, no matter how fearless the heart is, there will still be a sense of insignificance in the face of nature.

With such a big storm, it is unknown how many people will survive in the end, and even the total annihilation of the army is not impossible, everything can only be left to fate.

Time passed, and a series of wind and waves hit the ship, causing the hull to continue to tilt.

The levers sticking out of the hull of the ship were trying to thrust into the water and stir as the sailors tried to stabilize the hull, but many times it was a futile exercise.

Because the hull of the ship was raised high by the huge waves, the levers were often out of reach of the water, and they were only wielded weakly in mid-air.

A large amount of sea water began to pour up on the deck, washing away some of the fixed objects that had not had time to be solidified, and falling into the sea, where they became sacrifices to the god of the sea, including of course some of the sailors and soldiers who were busy on the deck.

I don't have time to care about them, the mighty and majestic building boat is swaying in the wind and waves like fallen leaves in the autumn wind of Chang'an City, I can't stop if I want to, and I don't even think about saving people.

The only hope is that they are lucky enough to be found and rescued by the other ships behind them, otherwise...... This sea is where they end.

"Dragon's head! The Sentinel has an unexpected discovery. Just when Dugu Qingyun's heart was gradually sinking and preparing to deal with death, a former pirate leader, the current 'sea wolf', moved to his side with difficulty and roared in his ear.

"What?! Say it again! The roar of the wind and waves made the voice blow away by the strong wind as soon as it came out, not close to the ear, and I didn't know what the other party was talking about.

"The sentry spotted a fire in front of him on the right front." Shi Chang tried hard to get close to Dugu Qingyun, put his mouth to his ear and roared.

Firelight? Dugu Qingyun frowned, can you see the fire in this weather? Hell yes?

In the strong wind, Dugu Qingyun couldn't question it at all, but pushed away the chief beside him, untied the rope that tied himself to the bow of the boat, and he wanted to go to the bucket to take a look.

This damn hell weather, any mistake in judgment would send the entire fleet into the abyss, and he had to go up there to determine what the sentinels were seeing.
