Chapter 90: The First Voyage of the Sailor!

"Lord!" The next morning, Liu Chen just came out of his tent, but found Liu Qi standing outside waiting. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Liu Qi, aren't you in Rongcheng? How did you get here? Liu Chen was also a little puzzled.

Liu Qi is the leader of the Han Army Intelligence Bureau, and he is also one of the most important personnel under Liu Chen, although the age is not much different from Liu Chen, but sometimes Liu Chen finds that he admires Liu Qi.

"My lord, there is important news that only fifty miles north of Qishan Pass, Weihai County suddenly sent 30,000 troops to camp there, in addition, there is a report from Malay, and it is found that the cholera of Weihai County sent messengers to Rushan and Wendeng; The two main cities, and the armies of the two main cities have been mobilized extremely frequently recently, and the subordinates are afraid that they will have some conspiracy! Liu Qi opened his mouth to report.

Hearing this, Liu Chen's expression froze, and then he also sneered: "It seems that the cholera in Weihai County is afraid that we will settle accounts after the autumn, so we are gathering help and preparing to attack us!" ”

Weihai County sent 30,000 troops to Oh Ah Qi Mountain, fifty miles away, and contacted the other two main cities, fools can see that the cholera in Weihai County definitely has a plan, half a year ago Liu Chen's Han army defeated the army of Weihai County, thinking that cholera is Geng Geng, at this moment the Han army is getting bigger and bigger, which also makes him uneasy, so there will be such a move.

"Lord, do we have to do anything to prepare?" Liu Qi asked.

After a little hesitation, Liu Chen opened his mouth and said: "Where is a regiment under Meng Yi stationed in Qishan, and the most elite Changjie battalion is also there, Qishan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it doesn't take many people to be able to hold it firmly, with Meng Yi and a regiment of 15,000 soldiers stationed, plus the military village we built, the enemy is 100,000 Chen soldiers, and there is nothing to be afraid of." ”

After a pause, Liu Chen said again: "There is a regiment under the command of Ding Fu to the west of Yaxi County, and the Ruifeng battalion is also there, and then let Li Guang's Zhang Han lead the troops of the next regiment under his command to support, this Wendeng direction is not a big problem, and finally it is the direction of Rushan, we have not done any defense here, so this is the most important thing, if Rushan sends troops, let the troops of Meng Tian's two regiments go to the camp, by the way, let him bring Li Xin's infantry regiment and Guan Yu's independent cavalry regiment!" ”

Nodding, Liu Qi asked curiously, "Doesn't the lord return to Rongcheng to sit down?" ”

"Huh!" Liu Chen smiled and said, "Rongcheng has Mengwu, Li Guang and Guan Ying to guard, I am absolutely assured, the entire Han army, that is, the water division, is weak, so improving the combat effectiveness of the water division is a top priority, because it will not be long before the Dongying people make a comeback, I hope that when the Dongying people come, our Han army and the water division will be able to fight the enemy head-on on the sea!" ”

Without waiting for Liu Qi to speak, Liu Chen took out a few pieces of paper from his arms and said to Liu Qi: "Here are a few drawings, when you go back in a while, you will bring them to Xu Mu, the owner of the Chengshan Junzhai Forging Workshop, and let him try to build them according to the drawings." With that, he handed the drawings to Liu Qi.

Liu Qi took it, the first piece of paper was drawn with an iron pipe, and a lot of numbers were placed below, it should be the specifications, Liu Qi wanted to know what it was, but he was not engaged in forging, so he couldn't understand it, but it didn't matter, he still hugged his fist at Liu Chen and said: "Subordinates obey!" ”

Nodding, Liu Chen said: "I will lead the sailor to sea this time, and I will come back in more than ten days at most, these days you need to bother, the intelligence bureau is the eyes and ears of my Han army, if there is any news, you can report to Rongcheng, if there is really something difficult to choose, just fly the pigeon to pass the book to me, I will rush back as soon as possible!" ”

Liu Qi left after saying goodbye!

The winter sun rises later than ever, when the head of the sun begins to appear on the sea level, eight warships fluttering the flag of the Han army slowly sailed out of Chengshan Military Port, surrounded by a hundred red horse boats, the sailor originally had ten warships, more than five hundred red horse boats, this time the voyage was mainly training, Liu Chen naturally did not take all the warships out, only brought eight warships, each warship had three hundred soldiers, a full two thousand four hundred soldiers and one thousand six hundred rowing sailors set off under the leadership of Liu Chen!

The soldiers who participated in this group of sailors were all soldiers at the beginning of the establishment of the navy division, who had participated in the blocking battle against Dongying, and the quality was good, and the officers who came were mainly Chen Ying, the head of the navy division, and Xiahou Ying, who was originally Ding Fu's deputy and later stayed in the navy division as the commander of the first battalion, and the officers of the navy division mainly participated in this training mainly with the two of them.

On the warship where Liu Chen was, there was a big flag with the character Liu, standing at the bow of the ship, looking at the boundless sea, Liu Chen also felt a magnificent wave, followed by Chen Ying, Xiahou Ying, Li Shishi, Tang Long and more than ten battalion and company-level officers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this time we go to sea, we don't just take a boat, training is the most important, you often walk on the beach, you should be familiar with the nearby waters, right? Which of you told me about the presence of pirates in the waters around here? Liu Chen turned around and said to everyone with a smile, "We will use these pirates as training objects, firstly, we can clear the surrounding unstable factors, and secondly, we can also train the soldiers' ability to fight." ”

As soon as Liu Chen's voice fell, he saw Xiahou Ying take a small step forward and said: "Lord, in the nearby sea area within a radius of one hundred miles, we have already inquired clearly, there are more than 30 pirate gangs, large and small, most of them are nearly 10,000 people, and the few are only one or two hundred people, they use small islands and reefs as strongholds, often intercept passing ships, and even some will choose places to land and rob some villages along the coast, we have long wanted to attack them, but because of the scarcity of warships, we can't go to sea!" ”

"There are so many pirates?" Liu Chen was slightly startled, it was only a distance of a hundred miles, and there were so many pirates, which made Liu Chen very shocked, thought about it and said, "In this way, let's start with a small group of pirates, since you know that there are these pirates, you should also know the location of these pirates, right?" Each of you will return to your own ship, and those who are familiar with the road can lead the way, and from today onwards, we will fight the pirates of the sea! ”

"I'll take my orders!" Led by Chen Ying, more than a dozen officers responded to the security call, and then also used the red horse boat as a tool to communicate and quickly headed towards the warship they were on.

Soon, a warship with the Xiahou flag on it came to the front, and then, the remaining seven, the warship followed, and with the mutual communication of the flag-bearers on the warship, the entire sailor team also rushed in one direction!
