On the 15th of July, Lin Feng appeared on time at the township soldier training camp with Feng Jingyun, Yi Wuxian and others.

Today, it happened to be the turn of all the township soldiers to go on the warship to practice water warfare, and there were only more than 200 soldiers in various colors in the entire battalion, who were divided into two large groups and stood scattered on the playground. One is the pirate team led by Jia Yuhang and Cao Shang, and the other is dominated by Shouzhou soldiers. In the middle of the two teams, there were two people dressed as Confucian scholars chatting by themselves, it was Zhang Zhihao and Yang Xiong, who had not seen each other for a long time.

Seeing Lin Feng coming in, these soldiers quickly stood up straight and saluted Lin Feng.

Lin Feng returned the salute while hurriedly walking towards Zhang Zhihao and Yang Xiong, asking about the status of the two of them at Fang's house overseas.

Zhang Zhihao briefly described that in the past six months at the Fang family, they have been to the South China Sea twice and to Goguryeo in the north once, and they have seen many overseas novelties and opened their eyes.

Lin Feng smiled and asked the two of them to wait for a while, motioned for the two teams to merge together, and said in a loud voice: "Please come over today, there is a dangerous and beautiful important matter that I want you to do." ”

"Lord Lin, didn't you say that all soldiers are treated equally? Why are the brothers who come here today who are usually not welcomed? You're not going to settle accounts with our brothers, are you? Zhang Fang in the crowd shouted straight at the top of his voice.

When I first saw Lin Feng, Zhang Fang was bullying Zhao Liu in the Shouzhou military camp to make trouble, and afterwards Zhang Fang was always worried that Lin Feng would use the excuse to clean him up. After being led to the playground today, Zhang Fang found that the people who came here were basically all crooked melons and cracked dates in the Shouzhou army who did not obey discipline, and the other part was all rumored pirate gangs, and the worry in his heart was even worse, and he couldn't help shouting out.

"Zhang Fang, then tell me, how do you think I will settle accounts with you?" Lin Feng smiled and pointed at him and asked.

"This ......" Zhang Fang was speechless, scratching his head and speechless.

"Today, I asked you to come because I found that the barracks may not be suitable for you, and I want to change you to a more suitable job. However, this job does not allow you to disclose your military status to the public for the time being, and there is also a high risk. So, now I'm going to give you the first choice, if anyone is not happy to accept the challenge, please stand up, I will pay the usual money for each of you, and from today it will be considered an official withdrawal from the army, I promise that I will never stop it, and I will never settle accounts after the fall! Lin Feng said in a deep voice.

Jia Yuhang, Cao Shang and other pirate teams have long known what happened to Lu Dao today, and naturally no one moved half a step. The other soldiers looked at each other, silent, Zhang Fang muttered, and moved a small step, but did not take another step.

"Okay, thank you for your trust! Since none of the brothers left, I will talk about the ugly things ahead, if anyone leaks today's matter to the outside world without my permission, I promise that the Datang special soldiers will search the world, and they will also break his body into thousands of pieces and destroy the whole family! Lin Feng said coldly, glancing at the more than two hundred thorns in the army in front of him.

Zhang Fang's heart was empty, and he regretted a little that he didn't have the courage to take that step just now.

Lin Feng pointed to the south and said loudly: "I will first bid for the first risk task - follow Zhang Zhihao and Yang Xiong to search for a continent with an area of more than 10 billion mu due south of the sea!"

I will provide you with the largest ships in the world, the bravest warriors, nautical charts, binoculars, supplies, and so on. Within a year, if the continent is not discovered, I promise to pay each of you five hundred yuan, each of whom is at least a lieutenant in the army, and pay a settlement fee of one hundred yuan before departure; If you succeed in finding that continent, I can ask the Holy Lord to make you the ruler of that continent, and all the profits on that continent will be divided into one-tenth of you! ”

What Lin Feng refers to is naturally the Australian continent in later generations, mainly referring to Australia.

The word Australia comes from the Latin word and originally meant "southern continent". According to history, as early as 40,000 years ago, there were indigenous people who lived on that independent continent. It wasn't until 1606 that the Spanish navigator Torres made his first expedition to the edge of Australia. In the same year, the Dutchman William? Janes actually landed in Australia aboard the Duifgen, which he named "New Holland". In 1770, the famous British navigator Captain Cook discovered the east coast of Australia, named it "New South Wales", and declared this land to belong to the United Kingdom.

Lin Feng coveted the rich mineral deposits and oil in that piece of land in Australia. At least in the impression of his later generations, at least Australia's iron ore, bauxite, coal mines, diamonds, and gold are all famous in the world. After the reform and opening up of New China, BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto alone squeezed astronomical sums of money from China by manipulating the price of Australian iron ore, which made Lin Feng deeply impressed.

"Wow-" The people at the scene suddenly became noisy, and soon someone stood up. Just making a steady profit of 500 yuan a year is attractive enough, not to mention the income after success, 10 billion acres of land, this condition is too attractive!

At the end, thirty-four Shouzhou soldiers stood up. Lin Feng instructed the special soldiers to register these people one by one and lead them aside to prepare to sign a contract.

Zhang Fang gritted his teeth and moved his footsteps back and forth a few times, but he still didn't make up his mind.

Of course, Lin Feng would not rest assured that Zhang Zhihao and Yang Xiong, two scholars and people, would be put into a group of reckless hooligans, and ten special soldiers who were relatively ordinary in their daily lives were selected to join the expedition team.

Lin Feng handed over a Southern Tang Black Dragon Battle Flag to Zhang Zhihao and Yang Xiong on the spot, encouraging them to persevere to the end and strive to become heroes who discovered an overseas continent for Datang, and at the same time told a group of them to hurry up and finish the things at hand and set off as soon as possible.

Zhang Zhihao and Yang Xiong held the flagpole tightly, saluted Lin Feng on the chest, and swore together with the special soldiers that they would not fail in their mission and return with honor!

Waiting for this group of people to leave, Lin Feng counted the remaining people, as well as one hundred and ninety-three pirates and soldiers, Lin Feng ordered Feng Jingyun to lead the special soldiers to scatter around, keep on guard, and then walked in front of these people and said loudly: "It seems that your appetite is relatively large!" Even the promise of 500 guan and a lieutenant can't make you tempted, I can only increase the temptation chips! ”

Jia Yuhang and the others grinned, Zhang Fang's heart was already in his stomach at this time, his mouth pouted, and he didn't laugh out loud, but he had more expectations in his heart.

Lin Feng raised his voice and said, "The ship can't be without a rudder, and the snake can't be without a head!" In the following task, I will first identify three generals who will lead the army. I would like to propose three people first: Yi Wujian, Jia Yuhang, and Cao Shang. If anyone is not convinced, they can come forward to challenge! ”

A large group of pirates immediately roared and stood behind Jia Yuhang and Cao Shang one after another, expressing their submission to the two former bosses. When the other Shouzhou soldiers saw this scene, they naturally didn't dare to provoke these two big pirates again, and they all turned their eyes to Yi Wuxian, who no one had ever seen.

Yi Wuxian has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and naturally knows that he must be able to stand up at this time, so he immediately rubbed his palms together and shouted: "Come on, it's okay to go together, don't let me wait for a long time!" ”

A surge of anger surged up in Zhang Fang's chest, and he jumped out, holding his strong body and rushing towards Yi Wuji, a fist as big as a sandbag quickly handed out.

Yi Wuxian sneered, made a wrong step, and sent his right palm away, sending Zhang Fang's huge body more than three meters away, and falling heavily to the ground.

There has always been no first martial arts and no second martial arts, and more than ten people immediately rushed out one after another, but none of them survived three moves under Yi Wuji's fierce hands and feet, and all of them were knocked to the ground. At the end, the five thorn-headed soldiers who had been selected for special forces rushed up together, and Yi Wuxian slapped him on the back, and put down five people at the same time in the tenth move, which completely dispelled the challenge of others.

Yi Wuxian quickly passed the approval of a group of hooligan thorns with his fists.

Lin Feng applauded, drew everyone's attention, and said loudly, "Okay, the three generals have been officially determined." Now, we have to talk about the specific partnership rules! ”

Everyone's ears at the scene were pricked up, staring at Lin Feng intently.

Yi Wuxian, Jia Yuhang, Cao Shang, Zhang Zhihao, and Yang Xiong became the five overseas kings who made the world hear about it in the future, and their merits and demerits have been controversial. Some people say that they are a symbol of China's prestige overseas, while others say that they are butchers with blood on their hands, and they are a shame in the history of Chinese civilization. But there is one thing that no one can deny, that is, because of the conquest and plundering of these overseas legions, Datang has a steady stream of financial and resource support, and has safely survived economic crises and even political crises again and again. ”
