In the middle of the night, Zhuang Yong was still thinking about Shen Leng's words in his mind, what kind of person did that young man want to be? He has led the army for many years, and he has seen many young people who are as determined as knives, but most of them are high-minded and lacking in strength, and they are just rhetoric.

Shen Leng is different, that little guy has a shocking ruthlessness in his bones.

There are more things to think about in my heart, so it is not easy to fall asleep, not because of Shen Leng, but because of the general document sent by the court today, His Majesty lost his temper again, a big temper.

The land martial arts of Daning are almost extreme, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the Quartet surrendered, but it is those places outside this sea area that give people a headache, even a small country with the elite of the naval army dares to make trouble in the Daning Sea Frontier.

The reason why His Majesty lost his temper was because he sought a country in the south, but it was only an island country with a population of several million, but because it was surrounded by the sea, Daning was beyond his reach.

Why His Majesty wanted to build a Daning fleet in the first place was not because of the chaos in the southern Xinjiang.

One-third of Daning's southern Xinjiang was originally close to the sea, but after the defeat of Nanyue, the sea frontier became longer, and the navy for the establishment of the country became more rampant.

Their warships are extremely fast, those guys come and go like the wind, go ashore to plunder and kill people and grab things and leave, if they are willing to stay on land for even a short time, with the reaction speed of Daning soldiers, they can immediately pounce on them and teach them to be people, but those guys are too cunning, knowing that Daning's soldiers are invincible, so they will not confront Daning's army on land at all.

The emperors of Daning have never taken this seriously, thinking that what such a small country can do is just that mosquitoes often fly over and bite it.

There are no serious sailors in the waters of southern Xinjiang, and fishermen are bullied and do not even dare to go out of the coastal waters.

After destroying the South Vietnamese Kingdom, he incorporated the South Vietnamese sailors, which is also the reason why His Majesty was furious this time....... Not long ago, the navy army of Qiu Liguo came to plunder again, and the reorganized South Vietnamese naval division was ordered to go to encircle and suppress it, but the result was that the number of warships was twice as large as that of the other side, and less than 30 of the more than 200 warships returned to the harbor, while the 90 warships of Qiu Liguo lost 11 of them, which can be described as a complete victory.

So much so that the people who seek the establishment of the country are still clamoring before leaving....... Daning is a paper tiger, and it will rot when it gets wet.

How can Your Majesty endure this?

The training of the Nanpingjiang Naval Division has not dared to slack off, but the progress is still slow, and the speed of shipbuilding at the Anyang Dockyard cannot keep up, everything is starting from scratch, how can it be so easy.

The more I thought about it, the more upset I became, Zhuang Yong put on a piece of clothing and went for a walk outside, and unconsciously walked to the new barracks, and saw a dark shadow outside the barracks from a distance, and followed Zhuang Yong's personal soldiers to go over immediately, Zhuang Yong waved his hand, signaling them to stay, and he entered the new barracks alone.

The black shadow is naturally Shen Leng, and the training intensity of the new barracks every day is already very high, but in Shen Leng's opinion, it is not enough at all, so in the dead of night, he will come out alone and do his homework again in the Taoist temple, meticulously.

Seeing Zhuang Yong coming, General Shen Leng hurriedly put down the wooden stick in his hand and saluted solemnly: "Meet the general." ”

"Every day?"

Zhuang Yong asked.

"Yes."

Shen Leng's answer is always so crisp and concise, and it is never muddy.

"Come and have a casual chat with me."

After Zhuang Yong finished speaking, he turned around and walked out, Shen Leng tidied up his clothes and followed, Zhuang Yong's pace was not fast, Shen Leng almost overtook him several times, and young people always seemed to be anxious.

"Why didn't you think about going to Sijiang?"

Zhuang Yong suddenly asked.

Daning's hot-blooded man, which one doesn't want to go to Sijiang to join the army? The heavy armor of the Western Frontier is there, and hundreds of small countries in the Western Regions dare not go to Daning's side when they fart.

The swords and soldiers in the eastern Xinjiang are rampant, and none of the large and small tribes dare to blow up their hair, and it is rumored that as soon as the sound of the swords and soldiers sharpening their knives appeared, the leaders of those tribes were so frightened that they couldn't sleep at night.

The Northern Xinjiang Iron Cavalry walked back and forth, and the border troops of the Heiwu Empire, known for their cavalry, had to retreat back a few hundred meters in a neat manner......

As for the wolf ape in southern Xinjiang, think about the affairs of Nanyue and the appearance of Zhaoliguo, which is close to Nanyue, now being a man with his tail between his legs, but the people of Zhaoli have not eaten beef and mutton for several years.

Shen Leng thought seriously and replied: "Slow to come out." ”

These three words were answered very carefully, not concealed, and very honest, Shen Leng could have said more beautiful things, such as liking the water master and the like, but he was unwilling to lie to Zhuang Yong.

This answer surprised Zhuang Yong a little, he paused and looked back at Shen Leng: "How fast do you want to go?" ”

Shen Leng thought in his heart that he couldn't lose too much to Meng Changan, but this was not the answer he should give, so he replied: "Mr. said that if you are promoted to the fifth grade, you can take your family to the barracks......

At first, Zhuang Yong didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but after a while, he realized that what this kid was thinking about was the girl named Cha'er.

Zhuang Yong couldn't help laughing, and said in his heart that the young man's mind was really funny.

"Is the general worried?"

Shen Leng asked.

Zhuang Yong nodded: "How can you tell?" ”

"Guess."

Zhuang Yong couldn't help but ask: "What do you think about the matter of seeking to establish a country and disturb the border?" ”

After asking, he regretted it, how could this hairy boy who had just joined the army know so much, he might not even know how to establish a country, he might really lack someone to speak, so he asked him without thinking.

"It's going to take two years."

Shen Leng's answer was still so concise, and it seemed that there were still some answers that were not what he asked, but Zhuang Yong's eyes lit up.

"Oh? Let's talk about it. ”

"I heard that although it is not a big country to seek a country, but to establish a country with a navy, the surrounding countries have been bullied by him, and many small countries have also asked Daning for help, but Daning has never felt that it is nothing, and besides, those small countries are not peaceful with each other, and Daning is happy...... However, from the time the wolves ate the first sheep, their appetite will grow, which is why His Majesty began to prepare for the establishment of a navy. ”

"However, the sailor starts from scratch, and there is at least one year left for the fleet to become large, and it will take another year for the drill to be pulled out to really participate in the war, but the effect of training the navy with water bandits is like this, and it is not comparable to the actual combat in the sea frontier."

Zhuang Yong asked: "If two years later, the sailors will form a battle with the naval army that seeks to establish a country, how many points do you think will win or lose?" ”

He thought, if Shen Leng's answer was smoother, he would say five or five, or four or six, Daning was of course six points, and three or seven would be a bit too much.

"Defeat is inevitable."

Shen Leng's answer made Zhuang Yong feel slightly angry, he had been training for more than four years, and it was the first time he had heard someone comment on the sailor he had worked so hard to train.

"Why?"

"The river is the river, not the sea, I haven't seen the sea but I've heard people say that it's vast and boundless, and the current naval warships of the Nanping River are big enough, and they are definitely designed and built on the basis of naval warfare, but even so, they will still lose."

"Be careful."

"First, the soldiers of the sailor division have never even seen the sea, let me make an analogy, with the same number of warships, the same size of the warships, and the same number of soldiers, can the current sailor beat the water bandits on the Nanping River?"

Without waiting for Zhuang Yong to answer, Shen Leng continued: "Second, morale ...... The navy army that seeks to establish the country has been formed for many years and has rich experience, but the Nanpingjiang naval division has not fought a war in the real sense until now, and once the team with high morale loses slightly, I am afraid that panic will spread to the whole army. ”

Zhuang Yong was still a little angry, but after listening to Shen Leng's words, he fell into deep thought.

Can you beat a water bandit under the same conditions?

The soldiers of the water division have always looked down on the water bandits, and if they ask an ordinary soldier these words, they will definitely be laughed at, saying that Shen Leng is a fool.

But Zhuang Yong knew that Shen Leng was not talking nonsense, just like last time, on land, eighty sailors could raze a water bandit camp of several hundred people to the ground, but what about on the water?

"And what do you think should be done?"

Zhuang Yong asked.

Shen Leng replied: "Of course, there is nothing wrong with our warships building blindly seeking to be bigger, but the waves of the river are bigger than the waves?" I don't think shipbuilding can be taken for granted in this way, at least we have to learn, even if it is to learn from those who seek to build a country, and to learn from the people of South Vietnam. ”

If these words appear in the Daning court, they will inevitably be scolded for their bloody heads, and learn from the South Vietnam Kingdom? Crazy!

But Zhuang Yong fell into deep thought.

"General?"

Shen Leng saw that Zhuang Yong was in a daze, and called softly.

Zhuang Yong came back to his senses and asked, "If it were you, what would you do?" ”

"Get a few back."

Shen Leng waved his fist: "Regardless of the cost, I will also get a few ships to come back for the best in the country, and drag them to the Anyang dock to unload eight pieces, take a closer look." ”

Zhuang Yong nodded, and then sighed again: "I'm afraid Your Majesty can't wait......"

Shen Leng shrugged his shoulders and said in his heart What can I do? I didn't even know what His Majesty looked like, and I didn't know if it would work if I had the opportunity to cut off a few of His Majesty's clothes, and then he thought of Tea Master..... The tea master is so beautiful.

face.

"Shen Leng?"

It was Zhuang Yong's turn to call Shen Leng back to his senses.

"You go back first, I'll write a song tonight and send it to the capital urgently."

Shen Leng sighed, saluted, and took his leave.

Zhuang Yong sat down after returning to the study, he felt empty in his mind before, but now he had something to write, he took the pen and wrote a few thousand words of the recital, and then sealed the fire paint, and called the soldiers to send it to the post station, thousands of miles to expedite.

After explaining the explanation, he let go of a matter of heart, and he began to think about Shen Leng, this little guy, has ruthlessness, determination, and rare thinking, such a child must have a bright future if he is cultivated well.

Zhuang Yong thought that if Shen Leng entered the soldiers, would it be unusual to give him a few people to take the training to see if there would be some unusual effects?

And Shen Leng, who returned to the barracks, was lying on the bed and began to reflect, did he say too much today?

At this time, he didn't sleep, Zhuang Yong didn't sleep, and there was still a person in the sailor camp who didn't sleep...... Mu Xiaofeng couldn't sleep, the first was because his face hurt, and the second was because he had hatred in his heart.

He was still thinking about how to get rid of Shen Leng?

If he wrote a letter back, his father would definitely try his best to solve the matter, but wouldn't that seem to be too incompetent? Mu Xiaofeng, who is young and vigorous, doesn't want to be inseparable from his father's care all day long.

The night in the harbor was quiet, murderous, and the wind was sluggish.
