Chapter 32: A faction of its own
There was a commotion outside, and when Wang Qing walked out of the cabin, the fire had already been ignited, and everything that was useful was carried onto the ship.
The fleet was launched, and Wang Qing summoned Wang Dynasty Ma Han, Zhang Long, and Zhao Hu to inquire about the situation of the seventy-two serial docks.
Zhang Long and Zhao Hu used to have a low status and didn't know much. But Wang Dynasty Mahan is a second-rate master and has a much higher status. Moreover, the Nujiao Gang, as a subordinate of the Southern Song Dynasty Water Division, did not give much help to the Lianwu Dock.
As the name suggests, Seventy-two Serial Dock is a joint gang composed of seventy-two water villages. In addition to the three largest water villages, which are controlled by the royal family, the royal relatives, and the prime minister of the current dynasty. The scale and strength of other water villages are not large, and to put it bluntly, they are a channel for the transmission of interests.
Second-rate masters are basically concentrated in the three largest water villages, and most of the sources are people from the palace or the Praetorian Guard.
This time, it was the Heishui Village controlled by the emperor's relatives who led the siege of Wang Qing.
Heishui Village is the weakest of the three villages, after all, compared to the royal family and the prime minister, these royal relatives are much worse.
In addition to the control of the most elite Praetorian Guards, the royal family also has a mysterious and unpredictable force in the palace. Although the specific situation is not clear, before Wang Qing went down the mountain, the master solemnly explained that it was strictly forbidden to approach the palaces of various countries.
The prime minister represents the entire civilian bureaucracy and controls the defenders everywhere. The military general system of the Southern Song Dynasty was basically destroyed, and most of the people who led the troops and supervised the army were civilian officials. This is also the reason why the Celestial King would rather be a rebel than accept the management of the imperial court.
According to the estimation of Dynasty Mahan, the second-rate master of Heishui Village was killed by Wang Qing after a wave. At present, there will be no more than five people in the village, including those who have fled back. But the other two villages are strong and strong, and I am afraid that they will not be able to attack hard.
Wang Qing is as good as a stream, so he will ignore the two Dazhai first, and slowly clean up them from the periphery one by one.
The water village of these water bandits may be mysterious in the eyes of outsiders. But what kind of people are Wang Qing's subordinates, rats looking for rats, and every house is clear.
Wang Qing's fleet, along the Grand Canal, kept turning into tributaries and lakes, and went to the door one by one.
The surrendered ships were all disorganized and incorporated into the fleet. All that can be used is removed, and what cannot be used is burned clean.
Wang Qing's system prompted a vigorous jump, and kept prompting the deterioration of relations with the Southern Song court. It's a pity that the mortal enemy is over, and there is no possibility of deterioration.
In one day, Wang Qing and his team traveled hundreds of kilometers and cleaned up 32 water villages.
It's a pity that they are all small villages, and there are no masters. Wang Qing personally did not have any income except for ordinary goods such as silver and two materials. But the flotilla swelled.
Wang Qing's bed crossbow made a great contribution. Not to mention, those who surrendered to the Nujiao Gang are worthy of being born as sailors, and they play with bed crossbows very well. The wooden gate of the small water village was shattered by two arrows at most.
The bandits who lost the barrier, and had no masters, and no discipline, surrendered decisively.
These water villages, there are more than 100 numbers, and there are dozens of people less.
Wang Qing's fleet swelled to 120 ships of all kinds and nearly 2,000 personnel.
Wang Qing didn't have the talent to lead a leader, and the size of the team far exceeded his ability to control, not to mention a group of water bandits with different thoughts.
Fortunately, Wang Qing didn't expect the combat effectiveness of these water bandits. And the advantage of water warfare is that as long as the helmsmen of each ship are well controlled, it is easier to look like a thing than the army.
After dark, Wang Qing ordered a newly laid water village to camp and rest.
In order to maintain the morale of the army, the food and wine that were stolen were openly supplied, and the small village was brightly lit for a while, and it became a lively mess.
It's not that Wang Qing doesn't understand drinking and mistaking things in the army, and he has to arrange open and secret sentries to prevent sneak attacks. It's really that these bandits are used to being lazy, and Wang Qing is too lazy to correct it.
There was a commotion outside, but Wang Qing locked himself in the cabin and flipped through the list of personnel.
The rivers and lakes are not as ruthless as the army, and the key is the duel of masters. Ordinary NPCs are useless except for their strong voices.
As luck would have it this time, there are more than a hundred elite templates. The five or six percent chance is really low enough.
This group of people is the capital if they are well raised. As for those ordinary NPCs, hey, they can only be raised for nothing.
But Wang Qing searched for inventory and found a problem.
This game only explodes external moves, never internal strength.
After all, fighting monsters and explosive items is for players. But as a player, internal skills are all learned. You don't need extra internal skills, and you can't learn additional internal skills.
But Wang Qing, who came from a big faction, knows the importance of internal strength. If there is no proper internal skill, the NPCs of these elite templates will not be able to be of great use when they are cultivated.
Of course, Wang Qing does not lack internal strength, but that is the secret of the Kunlun faction. Wang Qing didn't have the courage to hand it over to a group of scheming water bandits.
After thinking about it again, Wang Qing put his mind on the six doors again.
These people have done a lot of raiding homes and destroying people, and they have a lot of messy cheats at hand. This was found in the bronze medal capture exchange table I saw last time.
Of course, Wang Qing can't look down on those cheats, but they are at the middle and lower level. But it is beneficial to train these water bandits.
Wang Qing took out a small carrier pigeon, wrote a letter with a little brush, and sent it out.
After waiting for almost an hour, Wang Qing, who was waiting, doubted whether the carrier pigeon was useful. Finally, the little carrier pigeon flapped its wings and flew back.
Wang Qing took out a book and a letter from it.
The letter is Dugufeng's. It's sour throughout.
Wang Qing's matter has made a big fuss, and no matter how dull the bureaucrats in Lin'an are, they rarely show extremely high efficiency when they care about their personal interests.
Although Heishui Village was destroyed by Wang Qing, the remaining two Dazhai are still intact.
After getting the news, the two big villages were in one place, and the other small villages were integrated to form a large army. Prepare to encircle and suppress Wang Qing and them.
Although it is difficult for the imperial court to support it openly, it secretly sends a lot of good hands. Especially in terms of the sailor, the financial road was cut off, and he hated it even more. In the name of retirement and dilapidated ships, he kicked out of the sailor sequence of three fully armed warships, became water bandits, and rushed straight to the front line.
Dugufeng's heart is complicated. He was very happy to see that Wang Qing was about to be deflated. You kid has it today.
But he was worried that if something happened to Wang Qing, he would take back his management rights. It's all players, and they don't really die. Dugu Feng is now guarding the Sword Pavilion, with hundreds of thousands of dollars in his account every day, and his small days are beautiful.
Worried further, Wang Qing was furious and revealed his identity. Er or Wu Zai didn't have a good reputation there, especially in the six doors, and a group of people stared at him fiercely. But where there is a little stain, there are many people who fall into the well.
So he didn't dare to slack off on Wang Qing's request. Within the scope of authority, he helped Wang Qing get the best copy of "Tidal Gong".
Wang Qing flipped it over, although it was not eye-catching, it was already a good water exercise, at least it was a mid-range product.
It's easy to do with internal strength.
Wang Qing took stock and sorted out several sets of good swordsmanship, knife skills, marksmanship and some Qimen martial arts. After thinking about it, I added the "Black Sand Steel Body" I practiced.
Yes, it's enough to inherit some small sects.
