Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
On the morning of the tenth day of the first month of March, Stormwind City's naval army training plan finally came to an end, and all the 1,000 eighth-order soldiers were trained. However, it does not mean that the training of the navy army is over, Yang Tian has now begun to train the seventh-order soldiers.
Ten two-masted galleons were docked outside the naval barracks. The two-masted sailing ship was 40 meters long and could carry more than 100 soldiers. There are female walls on both sides with arrow holes. Capable of long-range attacks by eighty soldiers. A crew of 10 is required to sail in downwind conditions and 20 crew members in headwind conditions.
The two-masted schooner was the most rudimentary vessel for ocean voyages, and its speeds were very high, reaching 100 knots downwind. A schooner, on the other hand, can only reach 80 knots, and the difference is obvious.
At this time, supplies were being carried to the ship, and the most important thing was, of course, food. Yang Tian's plan to go to sea this time was not long, only about a month, so there was not a lot of grain on each ship.
The second most loaded is arrows, which is also the most important attack method in naval warfare at this stage.
After the loading of materials is completed, Yang Tian is about to set sail.
Wang Lao, Da Niu, Wu Ma and other major figures in the territory of Yigan came here to see them off.
Yang Tian patted Da Niu's shoulder and said with a smile: "Da Niu, you have captured six alien cottages in the past few days, you have to take it easy!" It's all gone, and you're not going to have to play. ”
The big cow smiled and didn't say anything.
Yang Tian said to Wu Ma again: "Wu Ma, now that the territory has just been upgraded, the clean-up of the new camps in the territory can be completed. ”
……
The flotilla soon sailed out to sea.
Yang Tian stood on the side of the ship, looking at the vast sea, and his mood was quite uneasy.
In his previous life, he spent 100,000 copper coins to buy a two-masted galleon from the system forces to get here, but he caused endless trouble for himself.
In this life, who else can cause trouble for themselves?
Yang Tian remembered that there was an island more than forty nautical miles south of the mouth of the Tianhe River, and he had rested on that island in his previous life, covering an area of less than 1,000 square kilometers. This can only be regarded as a very small island in "Under Heaven".
However, there was a group of pirates stationed on that island, and as for the number of pirates, Yang Tian didn't dare to look at it at that time.
Now that Yang Tian has a large number of soldiers, he is fearless, and he drove in the direction of his memory.
The view of the sea is very wide, and soon the outline of the island comes into view. Yang Tian was excited, this was his first step into the sea! Immediately ordered the crew to speed up the voyage.
found a water inlet on the island to dock, Yang Tian let all the soldiers go ashore, and the supplies were still left on the ship.
The whole voyage lasted only about an hour, so even the most powerful non-commissioned officers who served as crew members were tireless. Yang Tiandao: "Yang Chao, Zhou Ying, you first arrange for the soldiers to camp here, and I will ride Xiaobai to the island to explore first." ”
"Yes! Lord! Yang Chao Zhou Ying said.
Yang Tian rode Xiaobai to the sky and took a look at the terrain of the entire island.
The entire island is crescent-shaped, the back of the crescent moon faces west, leaning against the mainland, and the place where Yang Tian and the others dock is also at the upper end of the crescent. The terrain of the island is flat, there are no peaks, the whole island is covered with forests, and there is very little place where you can see the ground.
To the east of the island, in Crescent Bay, a large area of woods has been cut down, and there are still some buildings in the faint balance.
Yang Tian immediately asked Xiaobai to lower his altitude and fly to the sky above the clearing.
At this time, Yang Tiancai understood that this was actually a small fishing village, but he didn't see a fishing boat. There are at least 300 people in the entire village, who are now farming on the land behind the village.
At the intersection at the head of the village, several men with weapons were walking back and forth, as if they were guarding posts.
And there were more than a dozen men with weapons standing guard by the dock in front of the village.
Yang Tian was a little puzzled, so he simply ordered Xiaobai to put himself down near the village.
When he walked to the head of the village, Yang Tian was stopped by the five patrolling people, and the only one in leather armor shouted, "Who are you?" Why are you here? ”
Yang Tian looked at these people, their faces were vicious, and three of them still had scars on their faces, so they were probably not good stubble. Except for the man who spoke, everyone else was dressed in coarse cloth. smiled: "Who am I and what does it matter to you?" Are you the village of this village? ”
The leader's face turned cold, and after taking a closer look, he really didn't find that Yang Tian had a weapon, and said, "You guy must be a spy sent by other pirate groups, don't blame us for being polite!" ”
This leader is also cunning enough, and without waiting for the words to finish, he picked up the iron spear in his hand and stabbed Yang Tiandang in the chest quickly, and the speed was really a bit imposing.
But Yang Tian is a dignified super-level general, how could he be stabbed by his simple shot? I saw Yang Tian's body slightly to the side, let go of the spear that stabbed him, and then quickly stepped forward to bully him, grabbed the leader's throat with one hand, and lifted him up.
This was just a momentary incident, and the four little Luo Luo next to him hadn't reacted at all.
Yang Tian smiled: "I said you don't have the right to ask who I am!" You're still asking for trouble. Now it's time for me to ask, who are you people? Why is it here? …… Of course, you can not answer, anyway, there are so many people here, I think I should be able to find someone to solve my doubts. ”
The leader was terrified, but he still had a hint of luck, and said in a trembling voice: "You...... If you let me go, we have more than 700 brothers, and if you kill me, you won't be able to escape. ”
Yang Tian smiled, he was almost sure that this group of people was pirates, and said, "Oh? Are you sure? But I have a bad problem, that is, I don't cry when I don't see the coffin. I want to see if I can get away with it, not just you? …… By the way, you guys...... Yes, even you, don't stand like this, go and call your companions. In the end, Yang Tian instructed the other four little Luo Luo.
How could that leader not know the meaning of Yang Tian's words! I felt that my throat was getting tighter and tighter, and it was a little difficult to breathe, so I said, "Don't! Other! I say, I say. My name is Wang Wu, and I am a small leader of the pirate group on this Moon Island. The villagers in charge of guarding this fishing village. ”
Yang Tian gave his hand a little and said, "Oh? The people behind this village aren't yours? And what are your brothers doing now? ”
The leader took a few breaths of fresh air and said, "We only came to this island half a year ago, and after taking this fishing village, in order to prevent those people from escaping, we destroyed the fishing boats of those fishermen and asked them to grow food for us. Now our brothers have gone to the sea in search of business. ”
It turned out that they all went out to rob, no wonder there seemed to be few people.
Slap the person in your hand unconscious. The four little Luo Luo, who were standing on the side in a daze, thought that the leader had been killed, and thought of the fate that was about to befall them. They all yelled, picked up their spears, and planned to strike first.
Yang Tian was naturally not polite to the business sent to the door, these pirates were only the strength of the fourth-order soldiers, and in Yang Tian's eyes, it was a dish. Between a few rounds, all four Rolls lay down. Yang Tian put these five weapons into the package, and the leather armor was forgotten, he was too lazy to take it off, not to mention that the other party was not dead.
The roar of the four little Luo Luo just now alarmed the people of the entire village, and the more than ten people who were in charge of guarding the dock quickly rushed to Yang Tian. Seeing the five companions lying on the ground, things were clearly laid out in front of them.
However, impulsiveness comes at a price, and these more than a dozen people have followed in the footsteps of their companions without exception.
When Yang Tian entered the village, the fishermen who were farming behind the village were cowering and approaching this side, also wanting to see the situation.
A young man led by a young man saw Yang Tian, a stranger, enter the village, while those hateful pirates were nowhere to be seen. Thinking of the roar of those little Luo Luo just now, he said excitedly: "This hero, have you eliminated those pirates at the head of the village?" ”
Swordsman? It was the first time for Yang Tian to be called like this, and after looking at his dress, he couldn't get anything to do with the hero. smiled and said, "I didn't eliminate it, but I was all stunned." You're all fishermen who were imprisoned by them, aren't you? Those people are still in the village, so I'll leave them to you! ”
The young man was very excited, and said, "Thank you for saving the hero, I'm going to talk about those bastards with a thousand cuts!" Some of the people behind him also began to shout for revenge, and it seemed that they were indeed oppressed.
An old man slapped the young man on the head and scolded, "Why don't you little rabbit cub open his head!" Those large groups of pirates went out to rob and expected to come back tomorrow, so we didn't hurry up to build fishing boats and let everyone hide in a safe place. …… You little rabbit cub is so impulsive, you really shouldn't have given you the position of village chief in the first place. ”
Although the young man was beaten, he didn't complain, he smiled and said, "Yes! Right! Uncle Zhou, you immediately take someone to build a fishing boat. You can build as much as you can. When not fishing, a fishing boat can still carry seven or eight people. Before the pirates returned, we packed the old man and the child away, and the others hid in the woods. Moon Island is so big, those pirates won't be able to find us for a while, we can take our time. ”
It seems that this young man is still a little anxious, Yang Tiandao: "There is no need to rush shipbuilding, and you don't need to relocate." I have a thousand elite soldiers under my command, and those few hundred pirates are not to be worried. ”
"Really?" The young man asked hurriedly.
After receiving Yang Tian's affirmative reply, the entire village erupted in loud cheers.
After that, Yang Tian rode on Xiaobai, and in the stunned eyes of all the villagers, he flew into the sky. The young man Zheng Tao looked at the sky in a daze and said, "How can this horse fly?" Could it be that Engong is a god? ”
……
After Yang Tian's 1,000 soldiers entered Moon Village, the hearts of all the villagers finally settled down. The strict military appearance and sophisticated equipment made the villagers exclaim from time to time.
After Zheng Tao and several old people in the village muttered for a while, the old man who slapped Zheng Tao's head just now found Yang Tian and said, "Engong, the little old man Zheng Feng is Zheng Tao's father." ”
Yang Tian said curiously: "Zheng Lao, don't call me any Engong, my name is Sunshine, and Zheng Lao will call me Xiaoyang." I don't know what's going on with Zheng Lao? ”
Zheng Feng hurriedly said: "Engong has a great favor to our Moon Village!" This name of benevolence is well deserved. …… I Guan Engong is also a citizen of the Han Dynasty, I don't know how long Engong plans to stay on Moon Island? ”
Yang Tian smiled: "It is estimated that we won't stay long, after helping you clear those pirates, we will leave." In fact, the main purpose of our voyage this time is to eliminate pirates and open up a trade route. ”
After Zheng Feng heard this, his expression seemed to be a little embarrassed, and he said after a while: "Little Lao'er has a reluctant request, I hope Engong can consider it." ”
"Elder Zheng, please speak!"
"Our village has been living on Moon Island for hundreds of years, and we have been fishing for generations. But a year ago, there were many pirates on this sea, and the current court ...... Ay! Not to mention, the little old man saw that Engong was also a kind person, and wanted to ask Engong to leave some soldiers for our village to protect the safety of the village after clearing out the pirates. Our whole village is willing to serve Engong as the Lord and be loyal to Engong for generations! Zheng Fengsheng said with tears in his eyes.
After Yang Tian heard this, he was very emotional. To be honest, when he first saw this village, Yang Tian planned to take it for himself. But in the end, it was discovered that this village was not a pirate's, but a small fishing village of the imperial court. Those kind villagers made Yang Tian unbearable to take it, so he put down this idea. Anyway, there are countless small islands in the sea, and you will always find an abandoned village or pirate settlement.
But now that others have the heart to send each other, how can I have a reason to excuse myself, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Elder Zheng!" I promise that no pirates will ever revisit Moon Village in the future. …… However, the position of village chief should continue to be held by Zheng Tao! I think he is very smart, and with a little training, he must be a talent. ”
Zheng Feng was still quite satisfied with his son, and nodded immediately.
Then Yang Tian came to the village stele under the leadership of Zheng Feng and others. After Zheng Tao transferred the ownership of the village to the name of Sunshine, Yang Tian's first stronghold on the sea was officially established.
Yang Tian took a look at the attributes of Moon Village, it was only a second-level village with a population of just over three hundred. There is nothing else outstanding, but the popularity and law and order are extremely high, both of which have exceeded 90, which is extremely rare in the territory that has just been occupied.
After dealing with some things, it was almost evening, and Yang Tian flew back to Baiyun Town on Xiaobai. It is more than 300 miles away from Baiyun Town, and it can be reached in more than ten minutes.
After returning to Baiyun Town, Yang Tian talked with Wang Lao for a while, and then went to Tongtian Pavilion to cultivate internal strength.
This night, Yang Tian's intermediate-level internal strength finally broke through the sixth order.
Early the next morning, Yang Tian rode Xiaobai away from Baiyun Town, although after a while, Du Chaoyuan's lure skills could be cooled, and he could also persuade him to surrender. But Yang Tian didn't want to delay, he planned to delay the time of this trick until the evening, when he happened to return to the village, and he would not miss anything.
Coming back to Moon Village, it's not as lifeless as it was yesterday.
A few more people were added to Moon Village yesterday, and they were displaced people who were brushed out by the system after Yang Tian's occupation, which is also a special treatment for players. However, what made Yang Tian very nerve-wracking was that this Moon Village was far away from the mainland, where did he get this homeless person? Complex question!
Yang Tian found Zheng Tao and asked, "Zheng Tao, nothing happened last night, right?" The pirates haven't moved yet? ”
