Chapter 1 The Young Admiral Emerging from the Slums
"Don't send it, I will definitely be admitted to the Huangpu Naval Academy and become a commander!" The young man in the shabby navy uniform looked at the villagers who kept waving on the shore to see him off, and looked at those familiar faces looking at him with anticipation, and the corners of his eyes were unconsciously moistened. www.biquge.info The young man's chest seemed to be blocked by a stone, and his right hand couldn't help but raise his right hand and perform the most standard military salute in the endless world. I made an extremely solemn oath in my heart: I will definitely become a commander.
But it was too difficult to become an admiral, and there had been no admiral in Bauhinia Harbor for fifty years, even if it was a trainee admiral. The relatively remote and closed Bauhinia Harbor accounts for 80% of the Endless Sea World in this ocean coverage. It is often attacked by a warship called the Deep Sea Fleet, because there is no Admiral who can summon the ship Niang in the Bauhinia Harbor, and there is no garrison of the Town Guard Mansion that can resist the deep sea. Therefore, the fishing and marine resources of Bauhinia Harbor are extremely difficult. In the entire Nanpu sea, the Bauhinia Harbor is a slum-like existence. When the nobles of the big cities educate their children, they will say, "If you don't work hard, you will be thrown into the Bauhinia Harbor." ”
Look, what kind of place was this young man named Zhu Li born in.
The Bauhinia No. 1 fishing boat slowly sailed out of the port, carrying a full load of seafood. It takes half a month to drive along the coastline to reach the seventh town in the Huangpu Sea. Here, too, is Zhu Li's ultimate goal. The seventh town in the Nanpu sea area guards the Huangpu Naval Academy!
The Bauhinia No. 1 fishing vessel is a three-masted wooden sailing vessel with a length of 36 meters, a width of 10 meters and a draft of 5 meters. The displacement is more than 900 tons. There were more than 300 crew members on board. Is the captain Leonsandor in his fifties? Goolem. At this time, Captain Leonsandor was standing in the bow of the ship. Holding a telescope and looking into the distance. Looking at the young man sitting on the deck in a daze with his feet crossed, Leonsandor handed over the monoculars in his hand. smiled and said, "Ah Li, come and see, how beautiful this calm sea is!" ”
The boy gathered his emotions and brought the telescope to his eyes. The sun has just risen, and the calm sea is sprinkled with golden spots, and as the waves sway, the sea reflects the sunlight, and the sparkling waves are truly beautiful. Several seagulls skim over the ocean. A crisp cry echoed in the sky, and everything was so calm and beautiful.
"Ah Li, I was already a sailor on the Bauhinia when I was twelve years old. The captain at that time was my father. Now, more than 40 years later...... Alas. The old captain sighed, people are old, and they can't help but sigh.
"You haven't seen a fishing boat more than 100 meters away...... I've seen it. The old captain didn't care about Zhu Li, and asked and answered himself. There are many large ships in the Seventh Town. I always thought about it when I was young. Just try hard enough. One day I will be able to command a ship that is more than 100 meters long...... It's a pity that it can't be realized in this lifetime! ”
"Grandpa Lean Shando, if you have a chance, wait until I become the admiral. I will definitely order you a 100-meter fishing boat. Well, it's called Lean Sando! ”
"Hahahaha......" The young man replied innocently with childish innocence, which made the old captain laugh. Leonsandor looked at the child who had come out of the orphanage, if he hadn't detected the Admiral's talent. A fifteen-year-old boy might become a sailor on a ship. Perhaps, like myself, when it comes time to be the first to be a captain? However, Emperor Fubo blesses! This young man is going to become an admiral in the future.
"Then you have to work hard, and in the future, Captain Grandpa's Leonsandor will depend on you!" The old captain took the telescope that the boy handed back. He rubbed the young man's black hair with his hand and walked like a captain's room......
The sails of the Bauhinia 1 were full, and the three-masted fishing boat followed the monsoon and ocean currents to reach the fastest speed of 10 knots (1 knot = 1 knots = 1 knots / hour = 1.852 km / h). Zhu Li calculated the time and set sail from June 10th to today's June 23rd. Bauhinia 1 has been on the road for 13 days. Summer is the fishing season in the Nampo Sea. Bauhinia No. 1 only goes to the Seventh Town Shoufu in June and December every year to exchange supplies.
Zhu Li hid in the shadows under the sail on the deck and looked boredly at the "Basic Knowledge of the Sea Area" and "Basic Knowledge of the Fleet" in his hand, these two books are the basis of the assessment of the Naval Academy, and they are the basic knowledge that every teenager who becomes an admiral must master. Since Zhu Li got these two books three years ago, it has been now. Every word and every illustration in this has already been deeply engraved in his mind.
"Ah Li, I'm going to the Seventh Town Guard Mansion in two days. I'm so excited! "On the high mast, Sam is as nimble as a monkey. The rope on the mast of the straight, the one on the head and the foot of the slip down. suddenly hung upside down in front of Zhu Li. This prank Sam has been played many times. Except for startling Zhu Li for the first time, now Zhu Li is not even amazed at his difficult action. Sam was the lookout on Bauhinia One, and the tall mast was like walking on the ground to him.
"yes, I'd love to see what the famous Seventh Town Guard Mansion looks like sooner!" Sam and Zhu are about the same age. The adults on deck usually have their own jobs. Therefore, Sam and Zhu Li are the most compatible on the whole ship.
"Ah Li, are you really going to become an admiral? Admiral, that's a human hero. "Sam doesn't know much about the world. People in remote places may never reach the Admiral or the deep sea in their lifetime.
"I don't know, if you want to become a commander, you must first be admitted to the Naval Academy. Admitted to the academy only summoned the initial ship girl. to become a trainee admiral. Zhu Li was actually very apprehensive in his heart. Admiral, shipwright, Naval Academy, these are all so far away. Is it really achievable?
"Ah Li, you must come on. Abba said that you are the hope of the Bauhinia Harbor for fifty years. As long as you become a Commander. In the future, Bauhinia Harbor will be able to fish further afield. Maybe you can develop some marine minerals, but not necessarily! Sam's eyes were full of yearning. You're going to be Admiral! ”
"Hmmm! Be sure to become an Admiral! Zhu Li stood up. Hold two books in your arms. His eyes looked in the direction of the Seventh Town Guard. My heart is more determined.
The setting sun gradually tilted, and the afterglow stretched the shadow of the boy on the boat long. The rays of the setting sun were full of gold on the boy's body. Fishing boats, the sea, teenagers, and seagulls flying in the sky are like a warm-toned picture full of art.
Sam had rolled over and climbed to the top of the mainmast. Pull out your binoculars and look in the direction of the sun. Suddenly, Sam blew a wooden whistle hanging around his neck. A long, shrill sound sounded. The boy's panicked voice resounded in every corner of Bauhinia No. 1.
"Enemy attack! At three o'clock, a deep-sea battleship appeared! ”
