Extraordinary Sailing

Chapter 158 The Conch and Renewal

It was a sunny day, a very rare good weather.

In the blue sky and blue sea, Gabrield Naval Port, where the Kingdom's Third Fleet is stationed, is also extremely lively.

Large and small merchant ships come from all directions here to load and unload cargo, supplies, and repairs. At the same time, the flourishing shipping business also delivers far-reaching nutrients to this port city, creating countless wealth and opportunities.

Day after day, year after year, this scene will not change because of anyone's departure, let alone stagnate because of anyone's return

At this time, the warships and merchant ships returning to Hong Kong for repairs are taking advantage of the good weather bestowed by the goddess to organize sailors to maintain and maintain the ships. It is guaranteed that after the next trip to sea, the only reliance on the sea can bring himself back safely.

Warship parking area.

Of course, the sailors on an unremarkable Tier 6 warship were doing the same thing, but their work was obviously much more serious and careful than the routine work on other warships.

"Quick! Quick! We must clean the deck thoroughly before noon to welcome the arrival of the new captain!"

Fleck wore his cleanest and tidy sailor suit, and directed his sailors to carefully clean up the deck. The idea was very simple, and he must give the new officer a good first impression.

Whether it is the warship under his feet or himself.

Of course, Fleck's task was just the easiest part of the welcoming ceremony. From staffing, supplies, to weapon maintenance records, etc., before the arrival of the new captain, there must be no sloppy preparations!

Don't look at his appearance as a sailor now, in fact, Fleck was originally the son of a fisherman, and he just passed the examination last year to become an honorary Royal Navy.

After three months of recruit training, he and several recruits of the same period were assigned to this relatively ordinary sixth-tier ship to become the most ordinary sailor.

Of course, the recruits in the same period had similar experiences, with only a few exceptions.

After boarding the ship, because the sixth-level patrol ships generally perform tasks close to the coastline, life on board the ship is relatively calm and safe.

However, this calmness is only relative to other higher-level warships.

Soon, during a patrol, they encountered a small pirate ship that came from nowhere. During the battle, he was surprised to find that the swordsmanship level of several recruits in the same period was better than many veterans who had served for many years, especially himself.

It's just that in the first battle, a pirate's head was captured very cleanly.

As a result, Fleck also showed his prowess because of his "excellent" swordsmanship, and was appreciated by the boatswain on the ship, and joined the most lucrative Marine Corps on the ship with several recruits of the same period. Although it was more dangerous than the original position, but with more salary, he gradually gained a lot of prestige among the sailors.

The young man originally thought that he would build up his merits slowly through his qualifications, and that he might be able to become a warrant officer after the age of thirty. He would be even more satisfied if he could get into the current position of bosun before retiring.

It's just that people didn't expect it.

The former captain voluntarily applied to go ashore due to health reasons, and withdrew from the front-line battle sequence, and took away the boatswain who was his confidant by the way. This sudden accident made Fleck suddenly have new variables in his future plans.

Today the new captain is about to assume his new post, and like many people on this warship, Fleck can't help but feel a little nervous.

Whether it is a merchant ship or a warship, the captain is the only authority at sea, holding the life and death power of the crew and the path to promotion. The change of captain was nothing more than a turning point of fate for them.

"Fleck, are you ready?" On the other side of the deck, Baldwin, a recruit who was at the same time as him, urged loudly.

"It will be fine soon." Fleck checked the progress of the sailors and responded immediately.

However, seeing his companion Baldwin instantly reminded him of the rumor of the "Rookie King" that had been widely circulated among the navy soldiers before.

After all, the swordsmanship of the few of us benefited from which one of your lords?

Suddenly, Fleck, who was watching the movement on the shore from time to time, made a new discovery. Three young men in military uniforms walked across the plank road on the pier and walked straight in their direction.

"Ah! Who is that person?!"

"This time you made a lot of noise in the 'Newing Harbor'. The news spread that the top management of the Third Fleet is going to be fried! How about it? Did you see our Royal Highness in the academy? Just like the rumors Is it as beautiful as the one in the middle one?" A major officer with dark blue short hair winked at another young officer walking beside him.

"What, you want to talk to me? We have been given a gag order, and all the details of this incident cannot be disclosed to others.

If you have the ability, go and peek at General Snart's internal information. It's hard for others to tell, but at the level of a general, there must be detailed information. "

Even though I haven't seen him for half a year, Milan is still hard to change his cynical gossip nature, especially when it's about girls.

Milan, who is also a son of a wealthy family and has an older brother, compared with Anthony, the heir to the nobility, puts his airs on a lower level and at the same time lives a more relaxed life, but he is also more out of key

Hearing this, Ai Wen directly pushed back calmly, dare to gossip about Her Royal Highness, you are afraid that you died not fast enough! Hey, by the way, as the guardian knight of the princess, shouldn't I give this guy a sword at this time?

"Ahem, why not just let him break my leg.

However, after you said this, I am more curious about how you made the credit at that time. Is your appointment a record in the history of the Navy? The youngest captain in the kingdom! Just officially come of age! Just completed one year of enlistment! Not just one record.

After the Fleet Command received the order from the Navy Department, the Lieutenant General has been talking about this every day, and my ears are getting callused. "

"I just tried my best to do what I had to do, and then I had a little more luck than others.

After you have seen what a peak powerhouse is, you will know how powerless I was at that time. Even if you get the credit, you have to live to enjoy it! "

Milan's words made Ivan recall the scene of the battle that night, the quasi-legendary warships rampaging, the "powerful" battleships blazing, the brilliant main gun fired by the "Steam Fortress", and the crazy laugh of the evil god that still seemed to echo in his ears Voice.

In this battle, at least half of the soldiers who went to sea failed to land again, and there was not even a single complete skeleton.

If you die, you will lose everything! Thinking about it this way, Ai Wen instantly felt that he deserved the credit for being born and dying.

The two were talking in front, and another sturdy figure like an iron tower followed silently. The group of people had already walked to a three-masted sailing ship moored in the port.

"Look, we're here. This is the Tier 6 warship 'Conch' you're going to join.

There were not many ships that were vacant, and many alternate captains who had been waiting for several years were all staring at them. It was the father I went to look for, and against all odds, I left this Tier 6 ship in the best condition to you.

Regardless of the level of division is six, in fact, except for the lack of artillery, it is not much different from a fifth-level ship! Brother, is that enough? "

"Enough, I invite you to drink at night, you can choose the place, I will pay the bill!" The importance of a good ship to a navy is self-evident. Sometimes there are too many loopholes to exploit.

If you have a good relationship with the senior management of the fleet and know how to behave, everything will go smoothly, at least you don't have to worry about someone deliberately doing bad things. If you don't know how to be a human being, just throwing you a small broken ship and being the captain, and then throwing you a bunch of thorns for you to take, the situation will be too uncomfortable!

I really should thank Milan for his help, Ivan patted his chest and agreed very generously.
