Chapter 163: Reclamation (I)

When spring comes, the trees spread their branches of yellow and green leaves, gently swaying in the gentle spring breeze, and some trees also bloom bright flowers, and the fragrance of flowers attracts many small bees, buzzing and dancing at the same time.

The breeze blows, and a fresh and fragrant scent greets you, radiating bright sunshine everywhere.

"Madame, the harbor ship...... It's ready!" saluted Shakat, who was old and gray-haired, but still the Governor of the fleet.

"Of course, Lord Shakat, the navy and fleet are at your disposal, and among these ships, please choose one of them as the flagship, and choose the fleet governor of this fleet. "I am with the fleet, but I am not a commander at sea. ”

"Yes, ma'am, Governor Pikkor is up to the task!" said Shakat aloud.

was actually forty, and that might be his chance.

"As you wish, Governor Bikto, the fleet will be in your command. ”

"Yes, ma'am, rest assured that the fleet will go away safely and return safely. Governor Pictox saluted.

Eleni looked at it and smiled, ten warships, 300 tons, full of food and seeds, and even some small animals.

Of course, what is even more striking is that the soldiers on each ship, five hundred, have already conquered all the navy.

Behind it are dense merchant ships, most of which are 100-ton sea vessels, which are not large, and have crosssails and spinnakers, which can easily take advantage of various wind directions, and are also very flexible.

There were also large merchant ships, 250 tons, loaded with supplies.

It seems that the Pilgrimage Chamber of Commerce and the Chamber of Commerce related to it, for the sake of Luo Meng's face, have indeed put a lot of thought into this fleet, and these materials and ships, combined, are worth half a million gold coins.

There was a special group of people, all pirates, criminals, undesirable dissidents, and the lords and even kings from all over the country knew about the expedition plan and sent them extra, and these people were laborers.

Butoc had no sympathy for them, these guys were scum in his mind.

The pilots waved their flags, and the ships were about to move forward, and Elenie stared at the docks with some emotion in her heart.

However, the church in the territory has been regularized and can be reassured, and the new kingdom is the foundation for the next hundreds of years.

Governor Pictous saluted solemnly and headed for the ship's command room.

At the sound of a horn, the ship slowly began to move, sailing towards the outside of the harbor.

...... Governor Pikkus inspected the ships and saw canned goods.

However, this process is not difficult, but it is difficult to popularize.

Now all canned food is made of pottery, firing exactly the same stoneware, first processing the food, then put it into the can, all of them are heated and sterilized in a steam pot, and then covered while hot, and then sealed with wax.

In this way, food can be preserved for a longer period of time without spoiling.

This method, which has increased the long-distance power of the ambassador's fleet, can store large quantities of vegetables and meat, and makes scurvy largely disappear.

As I opened, there were vegetables inside, and I carefully dug a spoonful and put it in my mouth.

"Does it taste alright?" said Elenie.

Governor Pictous nodded, and said, "It tastes good, ma'am." ”

"This batch of canned food is a finely processed shipment and is in very good condition. Elini took the can: "On the road, you don't need to worry about the seafarers." ”

The priest who belongs to Romon now has five in the territory, and although the scurvy can be cured by the priest, it is not what he can afford now.

"Yes, ma'am!" said Governor Pictous, feeling a little distressed at this waste.

Alene shook her head and smiled, but did not speak.

"Madam, I will take advantage of this voyage for naval training. "Governor Bikkus changed the subject, a fleet of 2,000 men, in this era, can already be called huge.

"Oh, Buttoir, do you have any plans?" asked Elenie.

"Yes, ma'am, we must follow the plan, maintain the naval training ceremony, the sailors will clean, patrol, and mop the deck every day, the soldiers will have daily military training, the captain will command the ships, and the flag will be trained and the cooperation between the ships. ”

Eleni listened, nodded, and stood up, looking out the window.

The sea in the distance, even when the wind and waves are calm, are turbulent, rushing and whistling, and the sound of white waves rolling vibrates, and the sea water is so blue that it makes people feel the same as sapphire.

After waiting for a while, Elini saw that the Governor of Pictoir looked a little nervous, and said with a smile: "You are the commander, these are up to you, I believe you are an excellent naval governor." ”

"Governor of Shakat, for his outstanding talents and merits, he has been knighted, and I am sure you can also obtain it, in the territory of the sea!"

"Yes, ma'am!" said Buttoke's eyes, lit up.

The governor of Shakat was named a nobleman, and he had already envied countless admirals, and Pike was no exception, but he also knew very well that it was difficult to be knighted except when he was founded, and now this time, he really fulfilled his wish.

The only thing is that the distance is too far, but Pictoshi doesn't care too much, the news of Luo Meng's canonization has been publicly spread, and everyone knows that there is a great future to follow.

"It's just, regular training, will it affect the supply of supplies?" asked Eleni.

"Ma'am, based on the supplies I have inspected, and the fishing along the way, these are not problems, the only thing to worry about is the supply of fresh water, you know, the long hours of work and activity on the ocean have made fresh water seem strained, and this time, some animals also need precious fresh water. ”

"And, this time, I see that the amount of fresh water seems to be very small!" said Governor Pictous, at last, unable to hold back, and asked, puzzled.

Ships that sail long distances must bring fresh water and food, and compared to the food that can be overstocked, the area of fresh water is the main space on board.

"You don't have to worry about this, the water tank given to me by His Highness can supply five barrels of fresh water every day to maintain the entire fleet, but only ten of us ships are enough. Aleni smiled, in her room, once opened, a can kept gushing out sweet water, although not much, but three hours to fill a bucket is more than enough, at least five buckets a day, and there is still some time for the "endless jug" to regain its magic.

The accompanying druids, so they can also be used to plant a piece of vegetables.

Under the power of the druids, these vegetables sprout and grow quickly, and can be picked in batches almost every three days, so that the highest level, at sea, can enjoy fresh vegetables.

This is undoubtedly a luxury.

Now that this doubt was solved, he had no more doubts and bowed.

"Madam, some of the presidents of the Chamber of Commerce and the Sir want to see you, but do you want to see you?" the fleets sailed, but they could be connected to each other, and at this time, someone said with a pleading.

Eleni frowned, and then unfolded again, this time, except for the Tertashaw Territory, the other territories were actively participating, and they brought thirty boats with them.

According to statistics, they had sailors and soldiers, a total of 551 people.

These people participated enthusiastically, not only to do business with the Tetasho Leader, but also to thoroughly investigate the geography, area, soil, and property of the island that would be established in the future.

It should be said that these small nobles and the chamber of commerce class all want to expand, and only by expanding can they have the right to obtain land and become aristocrats.

The second sons and third sons of many small nobles resolutely abandoned everything and followed, trying to obtain rich benefits through this cooperation.

In the huge fleet, half of the nobles and squires would rather come without any pay, they just wanted to get a chance, and even because these people flocked to the fleet, they tried their best to break their heads and squeeze into the fleet, and they had to be overnumbered, and they had to be interrogated by Eleni herself.

Eleanne frowned because of the fanaticism of these people, but she had her own considerations.

The Kingdom of Salant was established, the first king was Haboba, the second king was the queen, the third king was still the queen, and the king was the descendant of the gods.

Alene couldn't oppose Haboba's claim to be king, but she wasn't willing to interfere altogether.

When the country is created, it is easiest to divide the interests, and although Romon does not care about this interest at all now, because it means nothing, but for Elenie, she must consider it.

In fact, Farfell and Nick, as well as the younger sons of some close nobles, are mostly retinues, and they will also be part of the new nobles.

But how to arrange it, it took her a lot of painstaking work, after all, she knew that the original Duchy of Salant had its own ruling class.

The only fortunate thing for Eleni is that the other party's aristocratic class is also very young.

Besides, with the second sons and three sons of these nobles to follow, the new kingdom of Salant will establish close ties with the mainland, which will be beneficial for the future.

Eleni couldn't help but show her attention, she was silent for a moment, and said, "Ask them to send a representative, and I will talk to them personally." ”

Talk about how to plan and build, and divide some interests.

and even the spread of faith.

"Fifty years of faith monopoly is not enough!" she thought, knowing the sacred treaty.

The Divine Treaty stipulates that the kingdom of the new gods will have a fifty-year monopoly period for the propagation of beliefs, during which foreign beliefs may be forbidden.

Fifty years, three generations of mortal time.

Three generations of grandfathers, parents, and children of a family are bathed in the light of one god, and in theory it is barely possible to establish the mainstream of faith, but in practice, faith is not stable.

Thinking of this, Eleni was even a little worried, for her cognition, faith is the foundation of God.

How could she not be prepared for a rainy day for Romong?

After a sigh, not far away, footsteps came from the deck, and about twenty people, large and small, representing various nobles, chambers of commerce, and even several churches, entered the reception room.

Elenie retracted her contemplation, facing the doorway, waiting.
