One day later, in the morning, Hou Yi came to the open sea of Port Crowwell. Xiao Chen stood on the bow of the ship, overlooking the surrounding ships. Those boats from the southern city-states, elven kingdoms and sea tribes, with awe, far away from the behemoths at his feet, keeping a distance toward the port.
"Why are the ships here so small?" The largest ship Xiao Chen saw was only half the size of the Houyi under his feet. Although the Houyi was a big ship, there were still many similar ships in the southern city-state ports. ship. And here, it feels like a giant has entered the villain.
Farrell said, "This is a rule that the Dwarf Kingdom has always had. Ships entering the Dwarf Kingdom will be limited in size. Vessels that exceed the size will not be able to get an entry permit."
Luo Ling wondered, "Why is this?"
"Although the dwarves are good at forging, they are really not good at building ships. It is also inconvenient to control large ships because of their short body shape. Therefore, the ships of the dwarf kingdom have always been relatively small. In this way, if a maritime conflict really occurs, the ships of the dwarf kingdom In the face of other forces, it seems to suffer. In order to avoid this, the dwarves limit the size of ships that can enter their sites.
Although we have a license from the Hai family, but our ships are too much, Crowwell's maritime patrol may not be willing to let us pass. "
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Let's not let us pass, it's not enough to say by mouth alone."
"It's a weird idea." Luo Ling leaned on the railing and looked at the land and port in the distance. "The dwarves in this country really have a lot of strange ideas."
"You will know afterwards that the dwarf kingdom has more stinking rules." Farrell said with disdain.
This time it was really expected by Farrell. There were two or three nautical miles away from the port, and there was a fleet of small boats, cut diagonally like the Houyi.
The dwarves ’sailing ships were rough, but not as rough as those of the sea and orc ships. They are just flatter and wider, with a dwarf-like body style.
These ships are not as fast as those of humans and elves, but they seem to be more solid than they are.
Xiao Chen instructed, "Let Ma Anmin be prepared, slow down, and wait for the three ships to come, I think there is a possibility of conflict."
A quarter of an hour later, Hou Yi met the three ships, and the dwarf's first ship uttered a universal slogan, asking Xiao Chen's ship to stop.
Ma Anmin asked, "Chairman Xiao, do you really want to stop? In fact, I am sure to throw them away and rush into the port."
Xiao Chen said, "Did you see so many elves, sea tribes, and human ships around? With so many eyes, I think it is better for us to salute first and then soldiers."
"Okay. Anyway, I'm sure to sink these three sampan boards in minutes." Ma Anmin gave the order, and the gunner on board and the new Marines composed of dwarves were ready.
Ma Anmin turned the ship over and pointed the side of the ship to the direction from which they came. The dwarves did not know that on the two artillery decks of the Houyi, more than ten pneumatic guns were ready for launch.
The flagship of the Dwarf Fleet stopped about 100 meters away from the rear one, and the other party used loudspeakers to shout "Where are you coming from?"
Xiao Chen drew a loudspeaker array and replied, "Our ship is from the Pearl Islands and has an entry permit belonging to the Pearl Islands."

The man on the flagship of the Dwarf Patrol Fleet shouted "Impossible, that license is definitely not yours. We have never allowed such a large ship to enter Crowwell! Hurry up and walk away from here!"
"Listen. We have a very important thing to visit your port governor Ansaldo. This matter is of great importance, and it is not something that you patrol fleet can decide." Xiao Chen said, "There is another person on my ship. An old friend of your governor many years ago. Your governor must really want to see him. "
The opposite voice froze for a while, and seemed to be discussing what to do, and the voice re-started after about two or three minutes.
"If you really have something to ask for seeing the Governor, you can come to our ship. The big ship must leave, otherwise we will attack!"
"What if we refuse?" Xiao Chen asked.
I saw that the dwarves' three ships no longer said anything, but began to move closer to the Houyi. The dwarves on the board also started to run, leaning on the edge of their weapons and equipment, as if preparing for combat.
Xiao Chen looked at the other party's ship with the eyes of the master. There were three kinds of dwarves' weapons. One is the large crossbow arrows that are also found on many other race ships. But the dwarf's crossbow arrows look more delicate. There are five layers of bow arms above and below, which can shoot five arrows at the same time.
The other is a long tubular object, but judging by its curved shape, it must not be a cannon, but rather a kind of fire-breathing device.
The third weapon is a large-scale trebuchet, but instead of stones, the trebuchets are placed in wooden barrels. Xiao Chen suspected that the barrel should contain some kind of explosive.
The weapons were moved under the operation of the dwarves, aiming at the Hou Yi one by one.
"The actions of these dwarves are really decisive, and they are ready to attack without saying a word," Luo Ling said.
"From their existing means, air guns and pneumatic guns are indeed not the technology mastered by the dwarf kingdom." Xiao Chen said.
Sinclair said aside, "Yes, my father said that it used the technology developed by the Black Dragon Empire, but it finally fell into the hands of our dwarf slaves. The dwarf kingdom guys don't have this kind of thing."
Ma Anmin sneered. "To face such an enemy, I really have a feeling of bullying children."
"Children sometimes have to spank to be obedient. Get ready for two rounds of shelling, don't sink them, but give them some color to see." Xiao Chen waved at Ma Anmin, who immediately grasped and delivered the shelling. Order while preparing the shield.
Xiao Chen said to the amplified array, "Your plan is totally unacceptable to us, and you are actually preparing to attack us. This will be regarded as a provocation to us."
As Xiao Chen finished his speech, the gun windows on the two artillery decks under the Hou Yi were all opened, and the muzzle of a door pneumatic gun protruded from the window.
"The following is our warning."
The muffled sound came from below the Houyi, and more than ten pneumatic guns were fired at the same time. The sound was amazing. The dozen shells traversed through the air, and then fell into the water near the dwarf battleship. The shells exploded and burst a wave of waves that exceeded the mast of the dwarf battleship.
