Under Zhang Bao's arrangement, they had many ships and immediately pursued the sperm whales in the ocean.
In the beginning, these very small boats were actually only used when Zhang Bao and others landed on the coast from the big ships.
but.
Nowadays, after such small boats are used, they become whaling boats in the ocean.
There were a dozen people on a small boat.
When they saw a sperm whale, every harpoon on their boat was inserted directly into the sperm whale's body.
At the beginning, this process was not as simple as imagined.
After the sperm whale is in pain, it will drag these boats and swim quickly in the sea.
And being caught off guard, the first batch of Zhang Bao and his men fell into the sea one after another.
Fortunately, when Zhang Bao was making the selection, the first batch of people were all very strong in water. Even if they fell into the sea, there would be no danger for the time being and they would be rescued by people on other ships.
The sperm whale also stopped immediately after swimming a certain distance with these boats.
Zhang Bao led several large ships to surround the sperm whale and process it.
Zhang Bao and the others were shocked to find that after dealing with this sperm whale, not only could they solve the problem of kerosene, but also the problem of food for the people on the ship.
After all, it was the time before.
Most of the fish they caught on the sea were small fish.
And such a large whale is very sufficient for their daily rations.
And after having the experience of the first victory, the problems with the sperm whales that followed became relatively simple.
Soon, Zhang Bao and the others got enough ambergris from the sperm whale.
After processing, it becomes liquid kerosene.
After verification by Zhang Bao and others, this kind of kerosene is still very easy to burn.
When everything was ready, Zhang Bao and the others started the hot air balloon again one night.
This time, there were only two people on the hot air balloon.
But there are many oil drums hung around the hot air balloon.
There is enough kerosene in these oil barrels.
Once they reached the top of the castle, they could drop the oil barrels directly.
However, this time, due to the considerable increase in quantity, Zhang Bao and the others spent much more time than usual when taking off.
Fortunately, in the end, the hot air balloon took off smoothly.
At this moment.
In the mountains and forests on the north coast of Japan, several groups of people were closely watching Zhang Bao and his ships on the ocean.
During the day, they could see Zhang Bao's ships fishing for whales on the sea.
They brought the news back to the emperor of Japan.
The emperor of Japan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the news.
These people from Daxia came to the north coast to hunt whales, most likely because they were facing food shortages.
As for the previous situation in the entire Japanese country, the emperor of the Japanese country was very familiar with it.
They also knew that on the southern coast of Japan, because their ocean terrain was relatively flat, it was easier for those ships to land.
But it is not conducive to the existence of large marine life.
On the north coast, there are many reefs and the sea is deeper.
so.
These large fish are often seen.
As for the Japanese country, they once wanted to take action against these behemoths in the ocean, but there was no way.
It was the emperor of Japan who suddenly realized this after seeing Zhang Bao's method of killing whales.
It turns out that hunting such large fish requires not only the same tools, but more importantly methods, skills, and enough patience.
What they compete with is not only the changes in tools, but also the pull between each other's strength.
This discovery was very useful to the emperor of Japan.
after all.
If the people of Daxia came to the northern part of their Japanese country, their purpose was just to follow those big fish.
In this case, maybe I was overly worried when I thought about their attack on the northern part of the Japanese country.
If that's really the case.
Then the situation is quite smooth for the Japanese side.
First of all, it is very possible that these troops on their Japanese side existed before, and they were not killed by Daxia's troops.
On the other hand, they will have enough time to deal with the current situation in Daxia.
On the other hand, up to now, if we talk about the people on the Daxia side, they have already started fishing for whales.
That means that based on the current situation, the food and grass in Daxia have been completely exhausted.
Since the food and grass in Daxia have been exhausted, it means that they have no way to replenish it on the shore.
That's why they have no choice but to come to the sea to hunt such large fish, which means that Daxia is now at the end of its rope.
If they can delay and persist for a while, I believe Daxia will be unable to sustain it.
By that time, it might be time for their Japanese troops to fight back.
After all, for Daxia now, they came from afar and they didn't have any supplies.
For Daxia to come to the Japanese country, it was already unexpected. It was even more unimaginable that they would have other means behind them to help Daxia replenish food and grass.
After all, transportation by sea is not as practical as transportation on land.
Marching and fighting on land must be supported by grain and grass, but ships traveling on the ocean cannot rely on grain and grass for transportation.
After all, if we want to fill a boat with grain from Daxia and transport it to the Japanese country, I am afraid that there will not be much food left in it when it is sent all the way to the Japanese country.
so.
Although this situation is unrealistic, it also means that Daxia has reached its limit.
After thinking of this, the emperor of Japan suddenly became energetic.
In his opinion.
This time, they were crushed to death by Daxia's troops.
It's a shame for their country.
This time, it was not only a shame for him as the emperor, but for the entire Yamamoto family, they also faced this difficult situation in dealing with the matter of Daxia.
Daxia's arrival in their Japanese country has already brought great losses to the reputation of their current Yamamoto family.
The current affiliated families of the Yamamoto family have been targeted in various aspects.
It is precisely because of this kind of targeting that the situation for the Yamamoto family, even without external attacks from Daxia, is not so ideal for them.
