Great Song Pirate

Chapter 471 Mixed Infantry
Wang Feng got up and replied with a smile: "Because of the lord's order, most of us here have nothing to do, so I picked out twenty of the best ships and selected more than 700 capable brothers to come here. I handed over the rest of the brothers and the ships to Commander Zheng Tong, and asked him to lead the fleet to patrol along the coast of our Liuqiu Island, and my current fleet can already be regarded as the fleet of your headquarters on Liuqiu Island!"

Xu Yi nodded. Wang Feng was right. Originally, Liuqiu Island was located along the coast of Fujian Road. This time, he saved Zhao Xu’s face by shrinking the various fleets and avoiding the imperial court. Wang Feng could only retreat to Liuqiu Island. Here, Zheng Tong also knows him. He has always been Wang Feng's deputy. He is no problem, so he said: "That's fine, we also need to form a defense fleet for this island, which happens to be on your left-behind ship. In addition to the fleet led by Zheng Tong, there will also be some ships left in Danshui Village, all of which will be handed over to Zheng Tong. Zheng Tong will take orders from Gao Xu when you and I are not here. Deployment, make sure the coast is not disturbed!"

Wang Feng agreed and said nonchalantly: "My lord, you don't have to worry about it. After two years of tossing about in a humble position, there are no decent forces around. Toss around a bit, let them thank God if we don't go to trouble others, who would dare to come here to trouble us!"

Xu Yi punched him and scolded him with a smile: "You have such a temper, you are careless all day long, I'm not kidding you, this is where we are at the root, we can't do anything because we send troops, otherwise, Haven’t we even been taken over by others? I’m not talking about those little thieves, I’m referring to the imperial army, don’t sneak attack our old nest while our army is not at home!”

Wang Feng rubbed his chest and smiled embarrassingly: "My lord's strength is getting stronger and stronger. A light punch will make me vomit blood. My lord is right, we can't be careless!"

"Please refer to the lord for the humble post! Please rest assured, the lord! These days, the humble post has already thought of this matter, and this time it will not take all the fleets here. The humble post has selected some ships that are not suitable for long-distance voyages to stay in the local area. The fleet can ensure that there is nothing lost here!" At this time, Sun Hai also stood up from the back and seconded.

Xu Yi nodded, and signaled to the people who came to pick him up on the pier. He saw that except for Yang Zaixing and Gao Jun, the leaders of the navy were basically here, and Gao Xu obviously did not expect him to arrive today. Here, therefore, he was not among the people who greeted him.

On the way to the Juyi Hall in the village, Wang Feng suddenly asked Daniel and Cui Yan who were following Xu Yi, "It's strange! Why didn't you see a shadow today?"

Everyone knows who Wang Feng is referring to as the shadow. For so long, Li Bo has been by Xu Yi's side, and it is rare for Xu Yi not to see him, so a few people who are familiar with Li Bo simply gave him one. His nickname is Shadow, which means he is Xu Yi's shadow.

Daniu shook his head: "I don't know, since Big Brother Li returned to Jilongzhai a few days ago, he announced his leave with the master, and he was never seen again, and I don't know what he was doing!"

Xu Yi just heard what they said, so he smiled and said to them: "Li Bo, you don't have to worry about it, this guy will naturally appear when he should appear!"

Once everyone heard Xu Yi's words, no one asked about Li Bo's whereabouts anymore. Anyway, this guy usually doesn't like to talk, and he is always like a log.

As soon as everyone sat down in the Juyi hall, they saw Yang Zaixing rushing over with Gao Jun, Xiao Jianfeng, Zhi Zhipeng and other infantry generals, and Gao Xu also rushed to the Juyi hall.

"I don't know that my lord is here today, please forgive my lord for not being able to welcome me!" Gao Xu, Yang Zaixing and others rushed to apologize to Xu Yi.

"Everyone, don't come here, let's do less nonsense things about welcoming and sending off, and return to our seats, let's talk about the progress of the preparations these days! Sun Hai, you are the main one in the naval training. , tell me first!" Xu Yi waved his hand to let everyone sit down, and immediately asked Sun Hai.

After everyone heard that they returned to their seats in order, Sun Hai hurriedly replied: "Report to my lord, these days, I and Commander Wang Zhi Wang, Commander Zheng, Commander Wang Feng and Wang Feng first selected some strong ships suitable for long-distance voyages. In addition, from the fleet that came back from Annan this time, a group of ships that were not suitable for long-distance voyages were screened out, and together with the fleet led by Zheng Tongzheng, they formed a local standing water army, responsible for fresh water The patrols in places such as Zhai and Huanshuiwan Penghu Islands ensure the safety of these places after we leave.

All the ships going on expedition have begun to enter the shipyard in batches for repair and transformation, install more thunder cannons from Jilongzhai and replace damaged crossbows, etc., to ensure the combat power of the ships and ensure that even if the In the face of storms, accidents will not happen easily!
Beizhihe and the commanders began to conduct drills on the sea north of the river mouth, summed up some problems of the southern expedition, and brought the coaches of the rotation training team to participate in the drill, trying to pass on these experiences to the newcomers in the future !So far, our joint training has not yet ended, and we have to wait for Commander Kong and Commander Diao to come over to complete the joint training and finalization! "

Xu Yi nodded and said, "Yes, you guys have done a good job, continue to do it until all the fleets arrive and complete the joint training as soon as possible, and then receive the supplies and winter clothes, ready to go at any time!"

Sun Hai and the others immediately got up and responded, Xu Yi then asked Gao Xu: "Is there anything going on in Zhaizi these days?"

Gao Xu hurriedly got up and replied: "My lord, according to the opinions of the mistresses, I have recently set up a garment workshop here, recruited many women from nearby, and started to rush to make winter clothes for the soldiers who will go out in the future. Others On the one hand, there are some things on the wharf. Recently, more and more merchant ships have come to our place. A block dedicated to merchants has begun to be built near the wharf. Now some merchants have reserved shops and land here. Some of our local bricklayers and The carpenters are now in business, and Mr. Li bought a large piece of land outside the stockade, and is planning to build a sugar farm here, which will basically start construction after the next year. Besides, there are also some merchants from Hangzhou. I'm also starting to talk about setting up a venue here, I'm afraid the land price in our village will increase!" Gao Xu replied with a touch of humor.

As a result, everyone including Xu Yi couldn't help but smile. Li Mutian didn't seem to be slow, and he started to build the field so quickly. With his leadership, and the operation of Danshui Village during this period of time, there is no need to worry. In the future, Tamsui will not become a business distribution center, there is money to be made!Only in this way can the Fubo army embark on a normal development track, instead of relying on looting to survive as before!Of course Xu Yi was happy to see such a situation come to fruition, so he couldn't help but nod his head in approval.

It's really weird to say that the Fubo army started out as pirates, and they were engaged in the business of robbing merchants' ships, but on the other hand, they were still doing business with merchants here. No matter how you think about it, it's a bit unbelievable. I think this thing is really funny.

Xu Yi stopped everyone's joking, and the hall became quiet again, so he then called Yang Zaixing's name and asked him, "Zaixing, how is the progress of your infantry training?"

Yang Zaixing immediately got up and went out to line up and clasped his fists and replied: "My lord, the generals such as Beizhi and Gao Jun did not dare to delay, they have already arranged the veterans who conquered the South into the new army. Through this method, the new army's combat strength will be improved immediately." A great improvement has been made. From this group of soldiers, the humble staff selected [-] elite soldiers to form the main force of the infantry to accompany the lord on this expedition to Japan. Now these soldiers are still in the process of intensive training, and they will be able to join the team soon Go!
Considering that it is impossible for us to bring too many horses for this expedition, after our discussion, only [-] of the most elite cavalry were selected from the cavalry led by Deputy Xiao to be incorporated into the infantry to participate in this expedition. During the expedition, these cavalrymen have undergone rigorous drills by Deputy Commander Xiao, and they are very brave. They are also practicing formation tactics with the expedition troops, and at the same time let the horses get used to the sound of artillery fire, so as not to be disturbed by their own artillery fire after going into battle in the future!
In addition, considering that the troops and war elephants of General Zhipeng are not resistant to cold, we will not take these Zhanren soldiers on this expedition. The defense here is considered to be in charge of Zhipeng, waiting for Gao Xu. Order, and the remaining infantry and cavalry are responsible for the defense of Danshui Village, please rest assured, my lord!

In addition, because many people saw that the soldiers who returned this time were awarded a lot of rewards, they came to join the army more enthusiastically. The low-ranking officials selected two thousand new recruits and started to recruit a group of veterans to train them. I can't count on them anymore, the coaches of the humble position are training them, and at the same time let them take on the defense of the law and order here, and temporarily assign them to Gao Xu!I don't know if the lord has anything else to order? "

Xu Yi was very satisfied with Yang Zaixing's arrangement. In this case, 500 elite soldiers could be mobilized in the infantry alone for this expedition. This force can already be used to great effect!As for the safety of the village, Yang Zaixing also made very thoughtful arrangements. Zheng Tong and his navy were in charge at sea, and Gao Xu, a general capable of both civil and military affairs, was in charge on land. If he makes trouble for himself, he may not be able to get it right, at least he can support him everywhere to help him. In this way, he can rest easy even if he goes on an expedition to the Wa Kingdom!

(The third update, I can finally go to massage my old waist! Today I suddenly thought of a question, there must be some brothers who have not subscribed to Chapter 145, that is, Chapter 1 after joining V, and Pimple is now fighting for a big push. The number of subscriptions to Chapter 1 is particularly critical. I hope that brothers who have not subscribed to this chapter can raise their hands and spend a few cents to subscribe to this chapter! Thank you brothers!)
