Chapter 158 The Conch and New Post
The sun shone brightly today is a rare good weather.
Amid the blue sky and blue sea, the Garbade naval port, where the Kingdom’s Third Fleet was stationed, was also very lively.
Merchant ships of all sizes from all directions are here to load and unload goods, supply and repair goods. At the same time, the prosperous shipping business also delivers far-reaching nutrients to this port city, creating countless wealth and opportunity.
This kind of scene, day after day year after year, will not be changed by someone’s departure, nor will it be stagnant by someone’s return
At this time, the repaired Warships and merchant ships are taking advantage of the good weather given by Goddess to organize sailors to maintain and maintain the ships. It is guaranteed that after the next trip to the sea, the only rely on the sea can return safely with him.
The warship berthing area.
Sailors aboard an unremarkable Level 6 warship are of course doing the same thing, but they work significantly more carefully than the routines on other battleships.
“Quick! Quick! We must wipe down the deck before noon for the new captain!”
Flake in his cleanest sailor suit , commanding the sailors under his command to carefully clean the deck, the idea is very simple, be sure to give the new commander a good first impression.
Whether it is the warship under his feet or himself.
Of course, Fleck’s mission is just the easiest part of the ceremony. From staffing, material supply to weapon maintenance records, etc., you must be prepared without a trace of sloppiness before the arrival of the new captain!
Don’t look at his appearance as a sailor now. In fact, Flake was originally the son of a fisherman, and he just passed the test last year to become an honorary Royal Navy.
After three months of recruit training, he and several other recruits during the same period were assigned to the relatively ordinary Level 6 ship to become the most ordinary sailor.
Of course, the recruits during the same period had similar experiences, with very few exceptions.
After boarding, because Level 6 patrol ships generally perform tasks close to the coastline, the day on board is relatively calm and safe.
However, this calm is only relative to other higher-level battleships.
Soon, on a patrol, they stumble upon a small pirate ship from nowhere. During the battle, he was surprised to find that the sword technique level of several recruits in the same period was better than many veterans who had served for many years, especially himself.
Only in the first battle, he was able to capture the head of a pirate very cleanly.
As a result, Fleck also showed his prominence because of his “excellent” sword technique, and was then appreciated by the boatswain, and joined several contemporaneous recruits to join the most lucrative Marine Corps on board. Although it is more dangerous than the original position, but at the same time as the salary is higher, he has gradually gained a lot of reputation among the sailors.
Youngster originally thought that he would slowly build up his merits with his qualifications, and maybe he could get a warrant officer rank after the age of 30. He’d be all the more content if he could get into the current boatswain’s position before retiring.
It’s just what people didn’t expect.
The former captain voluntarily applied to go ashore due to physical reasons, withdrawing from the front-line battle sequence, and by the way, he also took away the sailor who was a confidant. This sudden accident made Flake suddenly have new variables in his future plans.
Today, the new captain will take office, and like many people on this warship, Flake can’t help but feel a little apprehensive.
Whether it is a merchant ship or a warship, the captain is the only authority on the sea, holding the power of life and death and the promotion of the crew. The captain’s change was nothing short of a twist of fate for them.
“Flake, are you all right?” On the other side of the deck, Baldwin, a new recruit of the same age as him, urged loudly.
“It’ll be ready soon,” Fleck responded immediately after checking the sailors’ progress.
However, seeing Baldwin with his companion reminded him of the rumors of the “new king” that had been widely circulated among marine soldiers before.
After all, the sword techniques of my few are benefiting from which one of your Excellencies.
Suddenly, Fleck, who was watching the movement on the shore from time to time, made a new discovery. The youngster in the officer’s uniform crossed the plank road on the pier and walked straight in his direction.
“Ah! Who is that person?!”
“This time you have made a lot of noise in the ‘Newern Harbor’. The news came, and the third fleet’s high-level internal It’s about to fry! How about, have you seen our Royal Highness in the Academy? Is it as beautiful as the rumors?” A major officer with deep blue short hair winked at another young officer walking beside him. Eye.
“Why, do you want to take my word for it? We were given a gag order, and all the details of this incident cannot be told to anyone.
If you have the ability, you can go. Peeking at General Snett’s internal information, it’s hard for others to tell, and at the level of a general, there must be detailed information.”
Even if I haven’t seen each other for half a year, this guy Milan still can’t change his cynical gossip. nature, especially when it comes to girls.
Compared to Anthony, who is also a son of a wealthy family and has a big brother on it, Milan, who is the heir to the aristocracy, has a lower shelf and lives more easily, but also more Don’t worry
hearing this, Alwin directly pushed back, dare to talk about the gossip about Her Royal Highness, I’m afraid you’re not dying fast enough! Hey, by the way, as the Queen’s Guardian Knight, should I give this guy a sword at this time?
“cough cough, I might as well just let him break my leg.
But now that you say that, I’m more curious about how you got the credit. .Your appointment is a record in the history of the Navy, right? The youngest captain in the kingdom! Just officially came of age! Just completed one year of enlistment! There is more than one record.
From Fleet Command After I received the order from the Navy, the lieutenant-admiral kept talking about it every day, and my ears were getting calluses.”
“I just tried my best to do what I needed to do, and then compared to Others have a little more luck.
After you have seen what a peak powerhouse is, you will know how powerless I was at that time, even if I get the credit, I have to live to enjoy it!”
Milan’s words reminded Alwin of the battle that night, the quasi-Legendary battleship rampage, the flaming “Mighty” battleship, the brilliant main gun fired by the “Steamfortress” and the Evil God, which seemed to still be in my ears Crazy laughter echoed.
In this war, at least half of the soldiers who went to sea failed to re-shore, not even a complete skeleton.
Life is gone, but nothing is left! Thinking about it this way, Alwin instantly felt that he deserved the credit he deserved.
The two were talking in front, another Iron Pagoda-like silhouette silently followed behind, and the entire group had come to a three-masted sailboat moored in the harbor.
“Look, we’re here. This is the Level 6 warship ‘Conch’ you’re going to join.
There are not many ships that are just vacant, and many have been waiting for years. The alternate captains are all watching. It’s the father I went to find, and I will leave you this level 6 ship in the best condition.
Don’t look at the level of the classification is Level 6 , in fact, except for the lack of artillery, it is not much worse than a Level 5 ship! Brother, is it interesting?”
“It’s interesting, invite you to drink in the evening, the place is up to you, I’ll come. Pay the bill!” The importance of a good ship to a navy is self-evident, although he is appointed by the captain of the military, there are too many loopholes to be drilled when it comes to specific implementation.
Have a good relationship with the current fleet executives and be a good person, so everything will go smoothly, at least you don’t have to worry about someone deliberately doing bad things. If you don’t know how to be a human being, just throw you a small broken ship that is also the captain, and then throw you a bunch of thorns for you to take, then the situation is too uncomfortable!
I really should thank Milan for her help, Alwin patted his chest and agreed with great air.
