Chapter 22 The Beginning of the Sailor
Returning to Nanshan City, throwing the soldiers and the transport team to the school ground, Shangguan Peng returned to the inn and truthfully reported all the recent progress.
Lian Shan Wei also highly praised Shangguan Peng's recent command arrangement, believing that Shangguan Peng had made an important contribution to the establishment of the entire naval division.
After the report, Lian Shanwei told Shangguan Peng that 5,000 soldiers who had dropped from various places, 3,000 shipbuilders and a large number of supplies would arrive in half a month, so that Shangguan Peng could prepare and make proper arrangements in the barracks.
After accepting Shangguan's instructions, Shangguan Peng returned to the South Gate military camp and hurried back to the naval camp with the supplies he had just mobilized.
Half a month later, a large number of personnel and materials came to the camp of the water division, and the original craftsmen and troops could also withdraw to Nanshan City.
In the future, if you need supplies, you will need to send them directly from Nanshan City to this side, and you don't need Shangguan Peng to run back and forth.
Lian Shanwei and Chou Yan inspected the entire valley, all the hardware had been built, all that remained was to build ships and train the army.
Shangguan Peng can relax, these things are the affairs of Lian Shanwei and Chouyan, and he doesn't need to worry about it.
The days passed day after day, and half a year later, the naval warship had been built, with more than 40 large and small warships, and the sailors and soldiers had also begun to train on boarding, and Shangguan Peng was also thrown onto the ship by Lian Shanwei for hard training.
Another half a year has passed, Shangguan Peng is fourteen years old, and he doesn't know his own birthday anyway, so he lives in a daze.
The imperial court sent a military director to present the flag to the water division, and the water division held a grand army formation ceremony, marking the official establishment of the water division.
In addition to bringing the military flag, the head of the military department also brought military orders, the Nanshan Water Division will carry out regular patrols in the vast lake in the future, there are a total of 22 cities in the Dayun Dynasty on the edge of the vast lake, and the Nanshan City is the largest, so the water division is set up here, and the rest of the cities are of different sizes, all of which are threatened by water thieves to varying degrees, and robbery and killing of merchant ships occur from time to time.
It's winter, and there are few trading fleets on the lake, and the pirates don't know where to hide, so their daily task is to survey the waterways and map them.
Shangguan Peng also has nothing to do, every day he divides the supplies, training logistics, and the rest perform their duties, the women rescued from the cottage are very capable, mainly responsible for pulp, washing and sewing, and can also cook, logistics This Shangguan Peng is very relaxed, every day is practice, especially the internal skills are diligent and hard.
With the progress of Liuyun Mind to perfection, Shangguan Peng has officially become a second-rate master, and one of the advantages of being in the military camp is that he can always find someone to learn from, and Shangguan Peng's mad knife thirteen potentials have also progressed to perfection, which is the progress of continuous learning with people every day, and I don't know when I can advance to perfection when I practice it myself.
Lian Shanwei saw that Shangguan Peng's martial arts had made great progress, and gave Shangguan Peng a spacing task to kill the bandits within thirty miles of the camp.
Right in the middle, what is a bandit, it is a step for martial arts rookies to brush up their reputation, not only to exercise their martial arts, but also to brush up on their promising reputation.
Shangguan Peng went east with dry food, and the west was a safe area, so there was no need to inspect. First of all, it is necessary to find out how many bandits there are, and it is more convenient for Shangguan Peng to go alone.
There is not a big cottage near the barracks, and the group that was exterminated before is already relatively large.
But there are some obstacles along the way, a few people have a few knives, and they will grab when they see a single person, Shangguan Peng is single-handedly along the way, carrying a burden, dressed extraordinarily, although carrying a knife, but the temptation is huge, from the barracks out of less than two hours has been fought three times, three groups of thieves relative to Shangguan Peng into the water, even "this mountain is opened by me, this tree is planted by me" was cut by Shangguan Peng under the knife without finishing the practice. It's all goods that can't be put on the table, and they won't do such rough work if they want to be productive.
Searching for bandits is a very difficult task, no matter which group of bandits' nest will be hidden very secretly, plus it is winter, and he does not go out to work in the mountains, Shangguan Peng has no clue at all.
After two or three days of busy work, I killed a lot of thieves, all of whom were running out of the gang, and a few people dared to come out to rob the garbage goods.
At night, Shangguan Peng sat by the fire and thought about what kind of way to easily find out the whereabouts of the bandits.
"My head is just an ornament, how could I kill the leading party before, this head can be used as a ball to kick" Shangguan Peng slapped himself.
Shangguan Peng is an outsider, and it is even more difficult to find the thieves, if you interrogate those thieves who are nearby, it will be much simpler, so many snakes sent to the door before were all wasted by Shangguan Peng.
Early the next morning, Shangguan Peng dressed himself up as a harmless little sheep and put himself back on the road.
Along the way, Shangguan Peng pretended to be cautious and walked forward cautiously. After a while, a little thief was hooked.
"I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, ah, ah" Before he finished speaking, he was chopped over by Shangguan Peng with two knives, but this time, Shangguan Peng did not attack the vital point, the legs of the two were cut by Shangguan Peng, and they lay on the ground and looked at Shangguan Peng with a frightened face.
"Hero, be merciful, this is the first time for me, begging the hero to spare his life. Ignoring the injury on their legs, the two men turned over and knelt down, kowtowing like pounding garlic.
"Uncle, let me ask, you answer, it's good, Uncle can consider letting you go, do you understand. ”
"Understand, hero, if you have something to ask, the little one knows everything, and the words are endless. ”
"Okay, I like your attitude, the first question is how many thieves are in the vicinity of thirty miles. You say," Shangguan Peng pointed to the hairy thief armor.
"Tell the hero, we are little thieves, and our range of activities is not more than five miles away, and we don't know if it's too far. ”
"Then pick up what you know, pick up what you know. ”
"There is a cottage about six miles northeast from here, I heard that there are forty or fifty people, and I don't know the specific location, anyway, it is northeast, about six miles. ”
"Do you have anything to add" Shangguan Peng pointed to Mao Thief B.
"Hero, we're telling the truth, but I've also heard that there are bandits in Shilipo ten miles away, and there are a lot of them, so I don't know the specifics. ”
"I don't know anything, why did I leave you" In the sound of the thief's plea for mercy, Shangguan Peng drew a knife and wiped the necks of the two thieves, and kicked the corpses into the dense forest, naturally there are wild beasts that will deal with these corpses, Shangguan Peng is no longer the handyman he was at the beginning, and he has a lot of lives on his hands, so naturally he will not bury these dead people like he did at the beginning.
Fortunately, there was some news, and Shangguan Peng decided to meet the small village six miles away first.
