[337] The general was shown off
Eastern Lebanon Theater of Operations.
The next morning.
"Smack! Syllable! ”
The incomparably dense raindrops hit the top of the large driftwood ship "Pingbo XII", creating a crazy sonata.
The so-called "driftwood boat" is a kind of wooden boat that uses the "shipbuilding circle" to give birth to "scale driftwood" and grow.
Driftwood has a thick skin that is as tough as steel, and a lightweight wood with less than one-tenth the density of water, making it ideal for shipbuilding.
There is a point that must be made here - growth.
The specific construction process of such a vessel is as follows:
Place a few seeds in the center of the circle, then prepare a batch of special tree fertilizer, and then activate the shipbuilding circle, and the seeds will break out of the shell and grow into a wooden ship in three to five days.
The driftwood boat itself represents the superb skill of the Wanhao people in using plants.
Due to the several Tianye lotuses under the jurisdiction of this war zone, they produce different materials.
However, the growth space required for the lily is too large to be planted together, so it is necessary to often use driftwood boats to transport people and materials between different lilies.
At this moment.
Cheng Han was dressed in civilian attire, together with Lan Jiayao, a female mystic master who was also dressed as a civilian, plus two maids, mixed in with a group of porters.
Although this kind of "micro-service private visit" does not seem to be very interesting, he is also the commander of the corps and a senior combat service envoy, and his status in the war zone is quite transcendent, even the general will not say much.
The sound of the workers' discussion drifted into Cheng Han's ears.
"The new Warhawk Legion, I really have all the benefits of stepping on the horse!"
"Ordinary people like us originally had a quota of two catties of 'long sunflower rice' per month, but now the quota is all given to the Warhawk Legion."
The so-called "long sunflower rice" is a rare grain variety, but it is not easy to cultivate.
This kind of rice has a special effect of strengthening the body, and long-term use can increase the probability of condensation source sense seal, which is considered a benefit distributed to all civilians in the war zone.
After all, the natural environment of the Youmiao Realm is so harsh, how can you gather people's hearts if you don't give ordinary people a little benefit?
"Who made the War Eagle Legion so powerful, he just came over and made a great contribution, even the Xuanshi adults said that it was amazing."
"The stewards of the battle fort have said that it is only a temporary appropriation, and the production of long-term sunflower rice will increase, and the quota owed will definitely be reissued."
When Cheng Han heard this, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
Previously, he asked the main sword Wanli to win better welfare for the War Eagle Legion, and Chang Aoi was just one of them.
In the case of limited resources in a theater of operations, this inevitably crowds out the interests of others.
The workers' complaints are only a microcosm of this.
Lan Jiayao's beautiful eyes flickered, and there was a hint of anger in her tone: "If it weren't for the War Eagle Legion guarding the sky in the war zone, I'm afraid they would encounter attacks from the Flying Sword Shark every day."
"It's unreasonable for these guys to get the benefits, and instead of being grateful to the Warhawk Legion, they are still holding grudges!"
This sentence lowered his voice, and only Cheng Han and the maid could hear it.
The female Xuanshi witnessed the growth of the War Eagle Legion step by step, and also received a lot of benefits from the Legion, so naturally she couldn't listen to others say bad things about the Legion.
The two maids nodded again and again, with a posture of "the deputy commander is right".
Cheng Han didn't think so: "Human nature is like this, and for the meat that you eat in your mouth, you are naturally reluctant to spit it out easily." ”
The female Xuanshi was quite touched: "Yes! ”
That's when it happened.
Suddenly, there was a strange noise from the bottom of the boat.
"Wow!"
It sounds like a saw on wood.
The workers panicked.
"The toothfish is coming!"
"Driftwood boats aren't going to be broken, are they?"
The so-called "wolftoothfish" is a common fish in this world, named after the sharp teeth in the fish's mouth.
In the past, driftwood boats frequently encountered schools of wolf tooth fish when they went to sea, and many ships were forced to gnaw out of big holes and sank in the ocean, and the loss of personnel was not small.
Therefore, for ordinary people, the toothfish is simply a nightmare existence.
Only a few seconds passed.
"Wow! Multiply! ”
The sound of sawing wood quickly grew louder and rang out from several points at the bottom of the ship.
No doubt.
A sizable school of toothfish has gathered under the water, and an experienced person can judge that there are no less than a thousand of them.
The workers suddenly panicked.
Some were so frightened that they yelled.
"Where's the captain?"
"Something's wrong! Captain, hurry up and figure it out! ”
A crew member hurriedly shouted: "Don't worry, there is something called 'Sea Eagle' that protects the routes, and we will immediately call the Sea Eagle to drive away the school of toothfish." ”
But the workers looked skeptical.
"I've never heard of a sea eagle!"
"Hurry up and inform the captain, and immediately increase the speed of the ship to the maximum!"
In the big battle a few days ago, the Warhawk attracted the attention of everyone in the war zone, and the Sea Eagle was not famous because of its fighting under the sea.
The crew explained helplessly: "The wind and waves in the inland sea are a bit big, and the ship is too fast and easy to capsize, so everyone should wait for the rescue of the sea eagle with peace of mind." ”
But no matter how hard he tried to explain, the workers didn't believe it at all.
Cheng Han smiled slightly, and whispered to a maid: "I have a way, you go over and tell ......."
The latter walked briskly, leaned over to the crew, and said a quick word.
The crew's eyes lit up when they heard this, and they quickly thanked them, and then hid in the crew cabin next door.
Soon.
"Sha~Sha~"
The noise of the broadcast debugging came out.
Another moment.
The sound of the radio echoed over the large, more than 60-meter-long driftwood boat.
"Pingbo 12, the 8th Sea Eagle escort team is coming at full speed, please hold on for two minutes!"
"Understood! The ghosts under the water, they won't be able to take us in two minutes! ”
When the workers heard the conversation, they realized that the crew was not lying, and they were no longer shouting in panic.
"It turns out that there are really sea eagles."
"Let's wait two minutes and see."
Lan Jiayao glanced at Cheng Han, with a hint of admiration in her beautiful eyes.
She consciously changed to herself, and in the face of this situation, in addition to using the occult method to appease people's hearts, I am afraid that she could not think of such a simple and effective good method.
The same was true of the two maids.
*
Two minutes later.
The radio sounded as scheduled.
"The 8th Sea Eagle Escort Squad has arrived, and we will use our fishing nets against the toothfish!"
"Roger!"
Soon.
The gnawing sound of "Zizi" disappeared.
To this point.
Even the workers who were suspicious of the sea eagle completely believed in the existence of the sea eagle at this moment.
Cheng Han watched this scene quietly and said nothing.
Lan Jiayao rarely showed her wayward side, and actually muttered again: "If it weren't for the Warhawk Legion to take the initiative to send Sea Eagles to escort them, these people might have died in the belly of the fish, and just now they actually had the face to complain that the Legion had seized too many resources, which was really excessive!" ”
The two maids were like "humanoid nodding machines", nodding their heads wildly again.
Cheng Han just smiled and didn't answer.
His eyes drifted a little, and other thoughts rolled through his mind.
"According to the results of the deduction, the Hua Mica clan are natural sea herders, and if they lived near the Tianye Lotus, there would be no such thing as a wolf tooth fish attacking the ship.
"From this point of view, Hua Mica can be called a gold medal support, as long as they are successfully brought over, the pressure on the Wan Hao clan will be greatly reduced.
"But how?"
A few more seconds passed.
The radio sounded again.
"Pingbo XII, we launched three fishing nets and caught most of the wolf's fangs! You can drag the nets onto the boat. ”
"Roger! Thank you for your support! ”
"You're welcome! This is our mission, and I wish you a safe arrival! ”
"Thank you very much! I also wish you all a safe completion of the escort mission. ”
When the workers heard this, their expressions changed.
Someone whispered.
"I used to be scared every time I took a driftwood boat, but I finally don't have to do it anymore."
"After the Warhawk Legion came to the war zone, the situation did change dramatically."
Lan Jiayao snorted a little proudly: "Now you know the benefits of the War Eagle Legion, right?" ”
A maid chimed in: "The Warhawk Legion not only guards the sky of the war zone, but also protects the sea of the war zone!" ”
The female Xuanshi especially likes to listen to the words of the praise legion, and the iceberg's face showed a smile: "Well said! ”
Cheng Han pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "I have a new idea. ”
Lan Jiayao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "New design?" ”
Cheng Han nodded lightly: "A new Xuanbing design drawing." ”
The female mystic master quickly said, "I'll go find a quiet cabin. ”
At first, she was unimpressed by the so-called "new ideas".
It wasn't until later that she witnessed Commander Cheng come up with one "new idea" after another, and completely changed the way of war by herself.
Until now, she has regarded every "new idea" of Cheng as a precious treasure.
*
Inside the cabin.
On the three thin pieces of metal, the red filaments of light traveled quickly, melting into complex and delicate drawings.
Although this is only a fire-based mystic characteristic, not a real mystical method, Lan Jiayao and the two maids still don't blink.
In their eyes, this represents a profound wisdom far beyond ordinary people.
Not much.
Cheng Han put down his right hand: "Okay!" ”
The female Xuanshi couldn't understand the drawings, so she couldn't help but ask, "What kind of Xuanbing is this?" ”
Cheng Han replied: "It can be regarded as an improved version of Qinghan Xuanbing!" ”
He paused for a moment and explained: "Such an inconspicuous little thing as a school of wolf toothfish can sometimes cause big trouble, and it is estimated that a similar situation will be encountered in future wars."
"For this kind of improved Xuan Bing, I deliberately weakened the killing effect of the stone spirit power, and then greatly increased the killing range."
Cheng Han thought for a moment and gave a quantitative description: "A new Xuan soldier can kill all small creatures within a radius of five hundred meters if it is dropped. ”
Lan Jiayao looked a little excited when she heard this: "This is a very useful weapon. ”
Her heart is more admiration.
It's only been a while since I encountered a school of wolftooth fish, and I actually conceived a new kind of Xuanbing, which is really amazing!
The female master turned her head to look at the two maids, and said seriously: "You take the drawings well, and you must not let them leave your side, understand?" ”
The maid nodded heavily, taking it as the most important task in her life: "Understood! ”
Lan Jiayao was still a little uneasy: "The drawings are too important, I will contact the atrium of the war zone and ask the atrium to send someone to receive the drawings immediately." ”
*
Five minutes later.
The main sword Wanli received the news.
This Xuandu didn't know much about the design of Xuanbing, so he specially called his subordinates who knew this aspect and asked, "Under normal circumstances, how long does it take to design an improved version of Xuanbing?" ”
The subordinate thought about it seriously and replied: "The improvement of ordinary Xuan soldiers usually requires two or three master craftsmen, with at least ten master craftsmen working together, and it is absolutely impossible to do it in a year.
"If the complexity of the Xuan soldiers is higher, it will not be a strange thing for two or three years or even longer."
Jian Wanli's expression was subtle when he heard it, and he felt that he was being shown off.
Can't do it in a year?
There was one person just now, and it probably took a minute to get it done!
