The soldiers in front of them listened intently to Geng Jingzhong's speech and remained motionless. In the past three years, Geng Jingzhong has also made such a speech at the battle summary meeting, but it is not as impassioned as it is now.

"Brethren on a first-time expedition remember that the enemy is as feared as you are, and probably more afraid, and that they are not invulnerable! We are very strong, and when we clear the pirates, we are hand-to-hand, and under the intensity of such battles, many brothers have not been able to show their skills, and many of them have not even faced the enemy in person. After a few rounds of cannonade, the pirates dispersed and surrendered! There are also the first few exercises, I have heard many people say in private that the drill is acting! It's a show for me, and many people are quite resentful. But I tell you that these training exercises, like other rules and regulations in the army, have their own purpose. Every exercise can cultivate everyone's vigilance, and vigilance must penetrate into the veins of every soldier. For those who let their guard down, I will definitely not be polite to him! The same is true for veterans of the navy, although you have rich combat experience, but in the face of the coming battle, if you want to come back alive, you must be vigilant at all times, don't think that our Mawei Navy is invincible in the world! As long as you have the slightest negligence, a son of a bitch will sneak up behind your back and kill you with a piece of shit! ”

"Do the veterans of the Tiger Army remember the suppression of bandits in the province a few years ago? In Xianyou's Tianma Mountain, some of our brothers attacked at night because of a momentary negligence. More than 300 of our brothers are lying there forever! Outside the east gate of Xianyou County, the more than 300 tombstones are neatly stacked. Those more than 300 men ascended to heaven. It's just because one of us didn't take the bandits seriously, and we were careless. Negligence! You know, we are soldiers, and every squad is a collective. Everyone eats together, sleeps together, and fights together in the collective. I hope that by any time everyone will remember that we are a collective! ”

"The equipment we have is arguably the best in the world, and the supplies are the most abundant. Brothers are the best fighters, honestly. I feel a little sorry for the Japanese who are going to fight us. Really, our Mawei Navy is brave and fearless, so I want our soldiers to fight to the death, especially if we are still facing the Japanese Invaders! We, the coastal people, have been constantly harassed by the Japanese for hundreds of years, and they were even more rampant more than a hundred years ago. I would like to tell my brethren that I do not want to hear that any of you have been taken prisoner unless they have been wounded first. Even if you're hurt, you can still fight back. ”

"The brothers read the newspapers and read many heroes. Yes, their experiences are legendary, but not all heroes are as described in the legend. Every soldier in the army plays an important role, and you must not be fooled. Thinking that he was just a small soldier was insignificant. Everyone has their own combat position, and they must do it well, everyone is an indispensable link in a long chain. You can imagine it. If every helmsman suddenly decides that he no longer wants to endure the threat of cannonballs whistling overhead. Frightened, he ran to the cabin and hid. What are the consequences of that? This kind of miscellaneous will think, I am only one in tens of thousands, and it doesn't matter if I hide myself, it doesn't affect the overall situation. But what if everyone thought so? What will we do then? What will our Mawei Navy look like? Will the fighters be able to come back and reunite with their families? Therefore, everyone should stick to his fighting post, and everyone should be collectively responsible. Every warship, every combat squad, is important to the whole grand chapter of the war. ”

Hearing these words, the hundreds of helmsmen below subconsciously straightened their chests, they didn't want to be considered cowards by others, although they couldn't hold guns and guns, but their posts were undoubtedly extremely important. The other minions also secretly gritted their teeth, what's wrong with the minions, the general was also promoted by the minions! Li Guangdi and the others stood behind him, nodding their heads, they really didn't expect that the prince would still have such eloquence, and the soldiers were even more combative than before!

"Here, I also want to make a special mention of our brothers in the logistics department, without you to send clothes and food to the soldiers, everyone would be hungry and cold, it is you who ensure that every soldier has a gun and a cannon can be fired. As the old saying goes, the three armies have not moved, and the grain and grass go first! I would like to thank you in advance for the other soldiers, and I hope that you will continue to work hard to ensure the logistics of the whole army! ”

The logistics soldiers on the left phalanx can no longer describe their mood at the moment in words, and the previous complaints and dissatisfaction are all gone. The importance of logistics is self-evident, and without this piece, no matter how powerful an army is, it will collapse at any time. In the Battle of Guandu of the Three Kingdoms, Yuan Shao's failure to ensure logistics is the best example.

"In this battle, we must show our prestige, and beat the pirates, so that they do not need to see our soldiers, but run away when they see our banner. I can't wait for this scene. In this battle, the navy and the marine army also have combat missions, but listen to me, when you come back, I must hear the news that the Shimazu Satsuma Domain has been completely wiped out by us! I would like to remind you that the Wako are not easy to deal with, and that you do not need guns, and that many of you may not be a match for the samurai. Therefore, I ask you, when they rush up, to greet me in all formations, and to burst their eggs with your bullets. ”

"There is another very important one, usually the seizures of the brothers are returned to the public, and I feel that I have not received much. This time, the wartime seizures of the brethren will still be returned to the public, but I promise you that after you destroy the Satsuma Domain, all the seizures will be divided equally among the brothers! In this way, I don't think that I have too many demands, and these small requests of mine, the brothers, just need to strictly follow the way we usually train. The reason why I have never relaxed the training of the soldiers and made the generals strict with you is that I firmly believe in a golden and jade saying, that is, 'sweat more in peacetime, and shed less blood in wartime'! When we attack, we have to be resolute. Because the more resolute we attack, the more pirates we will destroy. The more Japanese we destroy, the fewer our own brethren will die, and attacking means fewer casualties, and I want you to keep that in mind. ”

The soldiers below could no longer control the buzzing of their words, and one by one they seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood. The generals standing behind Geng Jingzhong also felt very surprised when they heard this decision, but after thinking about it, this can inspire the courage of the soldiers even more, so that those soldiers who have never been on the battlefield can quickly overcome the psychological barriers. Soon, the soldiers only talked a few words, and immediately stopped, they still remembered the military discipline, and it was no longer appropriate to do that just now.

"We are the first army to go out to conquer the Japanese in the past three hundred years, and we want to avenge the people who died in the coastal areas due to the attacks of the Japanese invaders, and we also avenge our own brothers! When the brethren are triumphant, all of you here today will have a qualification to boast about, and you will be glad that you have participated in the conquest. Ten years later, when your son or grandson asks you, 'Dad, what did you do in the army?' Then you can look them in the eye and proudly and justifiably tell the little boys: 'Son, your father and I were fighting side by side with the commander of the navy!' ’”

After all the things that should be said were finished, Geng Jingzhong dried his throat, turned around and said to Wang Zhenbang next to him: "Lao Wang, it's your turn!" Declare your departure! With that, he took a few steps back, and then took the water bag and poured it violently.

"The hour has come! Board the ship and go! Just as Geng Jingzhong was drinking water, Wang Zhenbang was also full of pride and ambition and shouted loudly into the horn.

Tens of thousands of people boarded the ship in an orderly manner, all of them were high-spirited and neatly paced. This reminded Geng Jingzhong of a poem he saw on the Internet in his previous life, the dragon chanted and the sword roared in the air, the prancing horse galloped and I was crazy, broke through Tokyo and stepped on Nara, and reproduced King Yue to drive the jackal! This poem seems to be called "Slaying the Wolf", but it is impossible to remember exactly when and who wrote it. I just think it's very appropriate to use this poem at this moment.

"Shizi, I really didn't expect you to have such eloquence! I was so excited about what I said just now that I haven't calmed down yet. To be honest, I'd love to get on board and see for myself how we got out of the way! Li Guangdi said with admiration at first, but in the end he was a little regretful. He was left by Geng Jingzhong to watch his family and was not able to participate. Geng Jingzhong led the army with several senior generals such as Wang Zhenbang, Huang Dazhong, Ma Jiuyu, and Zeng Yangxing.

Geng Jingzhong first smiled, and then said sternly: "Brother Li, your responsibility is even heavier. This is our base camp, and it is more important than anything else to defend Fujian! It's going to be hard for you in the past few months, and this time I only left less than a third of the fleet for you, and your burden is very heavy, but you must keep this home! ”

"Don't worry! In the past few months, I will focus on defending, and our Kunpeng fleet will not set off for the South Seas for the time being, I am going to install all the artillery in our inventory on these merchant ships, and train those sailors quickly, which must also have some effect! Li Guangdi said.

"It's still okay, I've also thought about this, our guards don't need to go to sea to fight, and the enemy can't hit home by using those batteries on the shore. If you really find that an enemy is coming, you will withdraw all the people in Houyu Port. Hey, our possible enemy is none other than Zheng Jing on the opposite side or the Dutch in the south, who don't have the strength to attack Mawei yet! (To be continued......)
