Chapter 20: No Cannons

Chapter 20 There are no cannons

Take a photo with a few admired girls, add friends to each other, make an appointment to go to sea to admire the moon together, and spend the night to watch the sunrise or something. During the period, Gangzi hugged left and right, rubbed oil, teased, and caused the beauties to laugh, eyebrows, and ripples.

Of course, since he pretended to be Gao Fushuai, the license fee was not easy to collect again, and bidding farewell to the entanglement of the girls, Gangzi transferred to the Donglai Military Port Yuanmen official office to deliver the task.

The gate officer was still in that barracks, but there were two more sword-wielding guards at the door, and all players who wanted to enter were stopped outside. If you are handing over a task, you can click on a few task notices standing outside to operate by yourself.

Gangzi didn't notice the new mission notice, and still habitually squeezed through the crowd to get into the barracks of the Yuanmen officer, but the guards at the gate did not stop him, as if he didn't see it.

"Look! Someone had just entered the barracks of the Yuanmen officer. ”

"Such a cow? The guards didn't hack him to death? ”

"Nope! The guards didn't move!"

"If you are allowed to enter again, you will find out by trying."

As soon as a few players approached, two guards shouted: "Military land, please do not enter!" ”

"How did that guy get in just now!"

The guard's knife was half drawn, and he glared: "Military important place, please do not enter, otherwise you will be killed!" ”

A few people touched a nose of ash, but they didn't dare to break in, they had seen the methods of the guards, four or five players couldn't get close at all, if it was a group fight? This is a naval port, a group fight? The group of people!

Gangzi didn't know what was going on outside, so he sat in front of the Yuanmen official, picked up the tea in front of the other party, and poured a big sip of "Goo Dong, Goo Dong".

"My lord, I haven't seen you for a day, and the guards are all there."

The gate officer looked at the teacup in front of him and frowned, flicked it to the side with his hand, and replied: "Yesterday, there were a few guys who didn't have long eyes blocking the door, and I asked someone to kill them directly, and now there are so many captains outside, where am I busy coming, set up a few signs and tell them to take over the task by themselves, I really miss the clean days before......"

Miss...... Brother remembered that you were idle at the time, and tricked my brother into slipping around the sea.

Gangzi didn't care about the past officials, threw the task report generated by the system on the table and said, "I completed the task you gave me, and the reward was brought." ”

The officer of Yuanmen pretended to pick up the battle report beside him, read it and nodded: "You have completed this mission very beautifully, and you have slapped the Liaodong Navy for our Donglai Navy, and they probably don't have the face to continue to set up an observation post on Wet Island, this is a reward for you." ”

"You gain 10,000 experience, 100 gold, 1,000 merit, elementary ballistics."

Is there any mistake? For a broken outpost, my brother threw 9,000 gold artillery, plus 10,000 gold for battleship maintenance, and I couldn't beat it, so you just gave my brother 100 gold and sent it to Hanako, right?

Gangzi smiled and leaned closer and said, "My lord, I have been working under you for so long, and I haven't asked you for your name?" ”

The official replied: "My surname is Cui, and my name is Shi. ”

Gangzi climbed down the pole and said: "Brother Cui, you don't know how dangerous it was at that time, I first fought a naval battle with the two dhows guarding the wet island, although I won, but the hull was seriously damaged, the patrol fleet of the Liaodong Navy has arrived, but in order to complete the task, in order for our Donglai Navy to smoke the mouth of the Liaodong Navy, I still ordered the destruction of the sentry tower of the wet island regardless of my own life and death, and finally delayed leaving the world, I was chased like a mouse, it was three brigs, pouting my ass My boat sank, in order to survive, In order to make him speechless at all, I threw the ten guns of the ship into the sea, and then I barely ran back. Brother Cui, you also know, my brother just debuted, he is really poor, the money for ship repair does not need to be broken by our Donglai Navy, can the ten guns be reimbursed, our Donglai Navy eats this bowl of rice, but ten guns, drizzle! ”

Cui Shi said in an official tone: "I told you at the beginning that we will not be responsible for any losses you have during the mission, not to mention that your ten cannons are losses after completing the mission, and they have nothing to do with us, we will not compensate for your losses, rules are rules, and I can't be a small official." ”

Cui Shi's words were resolute, but Gangzi did not give up, and when he thought of Heifan Village, he asked tentatively: "Our Donglai Navy's iron smoothbore cannon is 900 gold, which is really expensive, and ten guns are 9000 gold, and I can't take it out if I buy it." However, I have a friend who got a territory, which is Tianxia Village in Sizhou, if he can make cannons there, I may be cheaper to buy from him, but he has never found a way to make cannons, does Brother Cui know how to make cannons in private territory? Please also advise me on the maze, I can also get all the artillery to serve the Donglai Navy. ”

Cui Shi smiled disdainfully: "Private territory still wants to make cannons? The cannon is the most important weapon of the country, how can it be lightly given to people? I'm not afraid to tell you that unless you have a big contribution to get the construction blueprints of the military blacksmith shop, upgrade the private territory to the town level, and upgrade the military blacksmith shop to the military ironsmith workshop, you can build an ore refining furnace, only the iron trained in the ore refining furnace can cast cannons, and only craftsmen with gunsmith skills can live in the military ironsmith to build a primary cannon foundry. Your friend is located in Sizhou, at the feet of the emperor, unless the rank is up to the general of the four expeditions, there is no need to think about it. ”

The four generals are the generals of the east, the south, the west and the north, and the ranks are above the Siping generals and below the generals. Of course, these are not what Gangzi needs to consider, because the most difficult step in casting cannons, "military blacksmith shop construction drawings", he no longer needs it. What he has to do is to upgrade Black Sail Village to Black Sail Town, and then upgrade the military blacksmith shop and build an ore refining furnace, which is not difficult to pile with gold, the difficult thing is how to get it by the gunsmith.

"The 'Military Blacksmith Shop Construction Blueprint' requires a military rank to the rank of General of the Fourth Expedition, where can I find a gunsmith?" Gangzi asked cautiously.

Cui Shi only said that Gangzi did not give up, and said without doubt: "Gunsmiths are extremely scarce, they are precious everywhere, if you want to get them, unless you break through the enemy's county-level cities, you can get the junior gunsmith skill book from the military ironsmith workshop inside." ”

Conquer the county-level city! Donglai is a county-level city, and the NPC defenders alone are 100,000, how can Ge Hede break through a city like Donglai? Thirty years of development is about the same. You don't have to think about casting your own cannons, it's better to buy the guns of the Donglai Navy honestly, these stingy people are all two or three folds that their own people don't fight.

Cui Shi saw Gangzi's face full of frustration, and said solemnly: "It is impossible for the Emperor of the Han Dynasty and the kings of the twelve states to ask private territories to cast cannons casually, so you don't have to think about it." Through the observation of this mission, we recognize your ability very much, plus you belong to my Donglai Navy, so we agree that we should vigorously support you, the hope of the Donglai Navy is pinned on you, in order for you to take on the heavy responsibility of leading the Donglai Navy in the future, in order for our Donglai Navy to dominate the four seas, you still need to hone, you still have a lot to learn, I think only the most arduous task can temper the overlord of the sea, only the fiercest battle can create a great hero, the world needs heroes, The endless ocean needs an overlord, I think he should be you, are you ready to be put to the test? ”

"I'm ready!"

Gangzi was infected with enthusiasm, playing "The Rise of the Nation", who doesn't dream of becoming a hero, who doesn't dream of dominating the world, brother has been recognized by the Donglai Navy, and the whole fleet is optimistic that brother plans to follow brother in the future, who is brother? In the future, the men who conquer the four oceans are still afraid of training? Still afraid of fighting? Come on, whip your brother with the most difficult tasks and the fiercest battles.

It's just that......? How can such an impassioned way of speaking sound so familiar? It seems that my brother often uses this tone to fool others, but he is not as atmospheric and moved as Cui Shi said. Forget it, don't think about it too much, other NPCs can still deceive my brother.

Looking at Gangzi who nodded in agreement with emotion, Cui Shi nodded with satisfaction and said: "In the Bohai Sea, the Liaodong Fleet, the Jinmen Fleet, and the Donglai Fleet are trying their best to maintain a certain balance, but there are many small actions at the bottom, and Wet Island is one of the small ones. There are two dloops of the Liaodong Navy stationed in the sentry tower of Wet Island, and all of them are seriously injured according to your battle report. ”

The mission battle report is only a proof of the completion of the mission, and the content is extremely simple, that is, one enemy ship is seriously damaged at one time, one enemy ship is seriously damaged at one time, and the mission target is destroyed at another. There was no mention of Gangzi's capture of a dhow, and that sloop he was going to give to Tang Yao, nor did he specifically mention it to Cui Shi.

Cui Shi continued: "You can defeat with one enemy and two, you are a natural navy. I have a task to you now, there is a pirate who has attacked our merchant ships many times, and it has been confirmed by intelligence that they are composed of two sloops, and the range of activity is in the Bohai Sea ***:*** area, of course, there are no real pirates in the Bohai Sea, they are supported by the Tianjin Navy. In fact, at this stage, the information of the brigs of each fleet is on the desks of their respective opponents, and this kind of small underground action is generally completed by sloops, without the need to appoint a formal captain, the cost is also small, and the loss is not distressed, and the damage caused will not cause war, and the sea surface in peacetime is the battlefield of sloops, which is not fatal but very disgusting. Without much gossip, we need you to wipe out this pirate army. ”

"I can't go!" Gangzi shook his head.

Cui Shileng paused: "How can you refuse, how can you, a rising brilliant star, refuse such a simple task, I am too disappointed in you, I reserve the opinion of re-observation of you, unless you can give me a reasonable explanation." ”

Gangzi glared and said: "I don't have a gun, I don't have money, my ship is now parked in Donglai Port with a gunhole, what can I do to fight the pirates?" Wait for me for a few days, until I get the cannon to take over this mission. ”

The captured dhow needs to be overhauled, and all the peripherals need to be replaced, which is basically the same as rebuilding. Tang Yao received that once the business was done, the construction cost of the sloop merchant ship needed to be paid in advance, and the payment for the goods could only be talked about making money when the payment was cleared. It is necessary to leave a part of the reserve fund in hand to deal with emergencies, and to pay salaries to subordinates, and the 9,000 gold purchase money for artillery Gangzi really can't get it. Only two days after the shipyard has received money can we talk about replenishing artillery.

Gangzi got up to leave, but Cui Shi stopped him: "It's not impossible to deal with artillery." ”
