And the person who recruited the veteran was naturally Su Li. Ma Gong, who has more than ten years of rich combat experience, was naturally successfully admitted.

By the way, the name of the hemp stick is actually Zhou Chongwei, a very atmospheric name, but because he has been a mercenary for more than ten years, he still uses the nickname of hemp stick to each other, so even after joining the Qinglong Empire, he still uses this nickname as his game name.

It's a pity that soon, after he practiced martial arts, this nickname became a bit unworthy of his name, because after he practiced martial arts, his figure quickly became stout, and he was no longer as thin as before.

However, because his left arm and left leg have not yet recovered, as a disabled person, he did not go to the front line at first, but has stayed in the rear to train recruits.

Taking advantage of this relatively free time, Ma Zhu saw the opportunity of the lack of professional naval talents in the Qinglong Empire, and bought a lot of professional books on naval warfare, and worked hard to learn by himself, and then officially established the navy in the Qinglong Empire, and was quickly transferred into it, and then relied on the knowledge he taught himself, he quickly emerged among many veterans, quickly promoted to rear admiral, and also obtained a barony, which is one of the few nobles who now have a formal noble title.

As for his left leg and left arm, they also grew back after he successfully stepped into the innate realm. Later, he even married a beautiful native woman from the Xuangu Continent as his wife, which can be regarded as a double harvest in marriage and career.

Although both sides are now major generals, in Miao Changjun's view, the future of his friend Zhou Chongwei is even greater than him, after all, in addition to the rank of major general, the other party also belongs to the earliest batch of founding heroes of the Qinglong Empire, and has now obtained a noble title, and then whether it is a military rank or a title, as long as there are more meritorious deeds, then you can continue to rise, and in the end, you may be able to obtain a high title such as an earl or even a marquis, and you can be divided into a vast territory. In the second half of his life, he was comfortable as a soil emperor.

And he, a major general, is just a big soldier with a high position, in fact, he doesn't have much real power, after all, their family used to mainly go to business, and they didn't cultivate any power in the army, and he can be regarded as the family who has been introduced into the military world in recent years, so his military rank has actually been climbing very slowly.

It was because of the great change more than a year ago that the family suffered heavy losses in other aspects, and realized that in this troubled world, it was still necessary to have enough force to better protect itself, so he began to increase his support, so that he finally climbed to the rank of major general some time ago.

It's a pity that because those military families have basically occupied those positions with real power and sufficient oil and water, he finally rose to the rank of major general, but the actual military power in his hands has not been improved. In the end, he relied on money to open the way, and he reluctantly attracted a small group of middle and low-level officers, which can be regarded as having a little presence in the army.

However, this power is still not worth mentioning compared to those old military families, just like this time, those guys know that this place in the Xuangu Continent is the lair of fierce beasts, and they can't use all kinds of high-tech creations, which can be said to be extremely dangerous, so they don't want to come one by one.

In the end, Miao Changjun, an unlucky guy with a high military rank but not much real power, was pushed out as the leader of the battlefield observation group.

And those rumors were really not exaggerated, a few days after he led the team to the Blue Dragon Empire, a soldier had an accident.

He also went to the scene to see at that time, and the whole person had already been eaten by the fierce beast, leaving only some fragments of clothes at the scene, and after looking for a long time, he only found a few bones full of tooth marks.

However, this soldier did seek death by himself, sneaked out of the camp in the middle of the night, and still went on the road alone, isn't this purely to deliver food to those fierce beasts! And because of this soldier's strange behavior, Miao Changjun also suspected that he had ulterior motives, and it was likely that he was a spy planted by other forces, but because he was now completely dead, both their side and the Blue Dragon Empire's pursuit were in a predicament, and it was difficult to investigate any valuable news in a short period of time.

After that, in order to avoid such incidents from happening again, Miao Changjun can be said to take people up to inspect several times every night, which made his sleep quality extremely poor during this time, and dark circles appeared on his face, but there was no way, as the leader of the battlefield observation group, once something happened, he had to be responsible! This time the task can really be said to be thankless.

Now after hearing about what happened to his friend Zhou Chongwei, Miao Changjun wants to transfer to the Qinglong Empire to develop, after all, now that the Qinglong Empire has just been established, it can be said that there is a shortage of people in all aspects, if a professionally trained senior officer like him comes, although he can't directly get the same rank of major general as now, but it's no problem to directly mix a lieutenant colonel or something. No matter how hard you work after that, it is not impossible to be promoted to major general again. Compared to his current major general, the gold content of the major general of the Blue Dragon Empire is obviously much higher, after all, there is a shortage of people here now, and it is almost impossible for a senior officer who has been promoted to a major general to have the kind of situation where there is no authority on the side of Oranxing.

However, he, a major general, was also obtained by the family at a great cost, and Miao Changjun couldn't directly make his own decisions, so he still had to go back and discuss with the elders of the family, if the family finally agreed, he could transfer to the Qinglong Empire to develop.

The two talked and talked, and also talked about the Jiangmen Huzi who forced Zhou Chongwei to retire early, Zhou Chongwei still felt very wronged at this time, you must know that he has no family background, so if he wants to get out of the way, he naturally wants to find a way to show his ability in the army, but this is disliked by the Jiangmen Huzi, thinking that he stole his limelight, and then targeted him everywhere, and finally made him have to leave the army. Maybe it's retribution! At the time of the Orlan Star Change, the other party was serving in the territory of Orlan Star, and he had already risen to the rank of lieutenant general, but unfortunately, no matter how high the rank was, with a meteorite forbidden spell magic from the demons, this general was still dead and there was no scum left. So that Zhou Chongwei can't find a partner if he wants to take revenge now.

And just after Miao Changjun and Ma Pole finished lunch, they were just about to get up and move, but in front of the left side of the battleship, they found a group of demonized beasts with more than 100 heads. Among them, the leader seems to be an extraordinary-level beast general.

Since most of these demonic beasts are very aggressive, once encountered, the best thing to do is to take the initiative and destroy them first.

Now Ma Pole did the same, and he immediately ordered the cruiser he was on and the three destroyers nearby to surround the group of demonic beasts.

And Miao Changjun and the others heard that a demonized beast had appeared, and they immediately came to the deck one by one and looked in the direction where the beast was.

As the distance approached, they could already see the appearance of those fierce beasts, those fierce beasts, they actually looked like a large tadpole, the whole body was black, and they couldn't even see one eye on their heads, only a big mouth was particularly conspicuous, and the teeth in the mouth were straight and sharp, like a short sword. Among them, the strongest beast general is more than thirty meters long, and the smallest one is about six or seven meters long.

"It's actually a giant mouth black devil fish, this thing is rare!" After seeing the appearance of these fierce beasts, Ma Zhu was also a little surprised, because this kind of fierce beasts generally live in the deep sea, so the transport fleet generally can't meet them. However, many fierce beasts will change their temperament after being eroded by demonic energy, maybe this group of giant mouth black devil fish has changed their habits because of the influence of demonic energy!

Because this thing lives in the deep sea, its eyes have almost degenerated, and it usually relies on various sound waves from its mouth to detect the surrounding environment, and they also like to use sound waves to hunt, and the high-energy sound wave beam emitted by its full force can shatter a hard rock in an instant. However, its reproductive ability is not strong, and it can even be said to be the lowest among many fierce beasts. To make up for it, its single combat power is not weak, and when it becomes an adult, it can generally have the combat power of the acquired eightfold, plus it also prefers to act collectively as a family unit, so it is a relatively strong beast in the deep sea.

At this time, the group of giant mouth black devil fish has also discovered the existence of the transport fleet, and is fleeing into the distance, it seems that this group of giant mouth black devil fish still retains some wisdom, after all, in the world view of the fierce beast, the stronger the strength, none of the warships of the transport fleet is less than a hundred meters long, so naturally this group of giant mouth black cuttlefish is considered to be a group of powerful fierce beasts, and they must flee quickly.

It's a pity that it's too late to escape at this time, Ma Pole led four battleships, and at this time he had already caught up with this group of demonized beasts, and then with his order, the guns on the battleship shot at it one after another.

This is the first time that Miao Changjun and them, the sky people, have seen these battleships of the Blue Dragon Empire firing a salvo.

To be honest, the scene was very shocking, they originally thought that these ironclad battleships that looked simple and backward should not have good combat effectiveness, but when their naval guns fired a salvo, they felt a terrible sense of majesty.

At this time, they also understood why the soldiers of the Blue Dragon Empire called it a sword cannon, these cannons blessed by extraordinary power, when launched, they were really like giant swords that cut through the sky, shocking, just by looking at it, they could understand the terrifying power contained in it.

As these sword cannons of different colors fell, most of the group of giant mouth black demon fish were wiped out almost instantly, and even the giant mouth black demon fish at the level of the beast general was also severely damaged, and a large hole was blasted out of its body, and the stinking dark purple demon blood continued to gush out of its body, polluting the surrounding sea water.

After being injured, the beast-level giant mouth black devil fish was also stimulated with ferocity, and immediately turned around and attacked the battleship.

Unfortunately, before it could get closer, the four battleships fired another salvo, destroying the beast-level giant mouth black devilfish and the remaining small fish.

After eliminating this group of Toucan Black Devilfish, four warships escorted several wooden transport ships to quickly approach the battlefield, and then assisted those transport ships to salvage the corpses of those Toucan Black Devilfish from the sea one by one.

The small fish in this are okay, the beast general-level giant mouth black devil fish is more than thirty meters long, and it took some time to pick it up.

And Miao Changjun and the others were all shocked when they saw a powerful beast general-level fierce beast that was killed without even having a chance to make a move.
