Luo Mingzhi was woken up.
The person who woke him up was one of his clerks, who was responsible for keeping accounts.
"Steward, get up quickly, there are enemies attacking the fleet."
Luo Mingzhi, who had just woken up, was shocked when he heard the enemy attack.
What we expected came true!
He immediately got up from the bed, grabbed the clothes hanging aside, put them on and walked out.
While asking: "Do you know who is coming? How many are there?"
The clerk was stunned: "It's still night, how can I see clearly?"
"Yes, I fell asleep."
Luo Mingzhi slapped him on the head.
Then he asked: "How are the casualties among the disciples?"
The clerk replied: "There were no casualties."
"Ah?" Luo Mingzhi stopped.
"Then what's going on outside now?"
The clerk spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know either.
After all, he was just woken up.
Seeing that the document couldn't explain why, Luo Mingzhi didn't make things difficult for him.
Holding a stabbing sword, he walked through the corridor with wandering steps and walked towards the deck.
Luo Mingzhi hunched over to the splint, ready to fight to the death.
But they found that the imagined battle of jumping off the ship and taking over the side did not happen.
Even on the surrounding ships, there was no sign of fighting at all.
What is going on now?
Looking around, the sailors of the Navy Yamen have formed a defense under the command of the officer.
On the contrary, many people from the Luo family did not wear leather armor or carry weapons.
There were even some shirtless people shouting something loudly.
Seeing this situation, he couldn't help but frown.
Is this the quality of my Luo family’s son now?
Each and every one of them was powerful and resourceful in name, but then they encountered big problems, and they fell into chaos like this.
In such a state, how can one go on the battlefield and make achievements?
He looked in the direction of Rhodes.
It seems...the head of the family has taught a lesson to the tribesmen who are growing like crazy in the greenhouse.
Think of this.
Seeing that the situation was not bad, Luo Mingzhi did not stay on the deck longer.
He immediately walked towards the crowd, joined some calm Luo family members, and began to organize a defense.
After working sparsely for a long time, I finally managed to get something working.
But judging from their appearance, they are only at the level of a no-name army.
It's a pity that these people have bulging tendons.
There is no decent defense organized by the Navy Yamen Organization!
The sky is getting brighter and visibility is getting better and better.
With the broadening of horizons.
Luo Mingzhi keenly discovered that nothing was left on the sea.
There were no boats, clothes, corpses, etc.
It was as if there was no battle at all last night.
But this is impossible.
It was possible that the head of the family would use methods he could not imagine to deal with those people.
One small boat after another rowed out from the main ship.
After receiving the order from Rhodes, the sailors sent by the Ministry of War finally disbanded the defense.
The sailors in twos and threes returned to their positions one after another.
According to the previous arrangements, we are ready to start our journey.
As the fleet continued to move forward, the Luo family seemed to have come to their senses and began to do their own things.
Luo Mingzhi also did his work step by step, but there was always a knot in his heart.
"Luo Mingzhi, the head of the family wants you to come over."
Luo Mingzhi's heart sank when he heard the call of someone coming from the main ship.
The visitor not only called Luo Mingzhi, but also called many other people.
Luo Mingzhi took a rough look.
Whether he could name these people or not, they looked familiar.
They all seem to be the top people in the family.
Luo Mingzhi didn't dare to delay.
After arranging the work at hand, he and his other companions on the boat took the small boat towards the main ship.
There is a very spacious cleat on the main ship.
Rhodes has been waiting for a long time.
He was sitting on a chair, reading a book carefully, surrounded by a circle of armored guards.
When he saw someone coming up, he didn't say anything, he just raised his head and glanced briefly.
Then he pointed to the open space in front of him.
He motioned for them all to stand over.
Luo Mingzhi didn't dare to talk to Rhodes.
He took the few people around him and stood there quietly.
From time to time a small boat came over and a few people climbed aboard.
They also stood in front under Rhodes' command.
After the last person from the boat came up, Rhodes closed the book in his hand.
He turned his attention to the men standing on the deck.
"Do you know...why I called you here?" Rhodes asked.
The group of people remained silent, but most of them had some guesses.
"Don't say anything?" Rhodes smiled.
Rhodes originally planned to adjust the positions of these people according to the situation last night according to the good, medium and poor.
Firstly, it is to allow capable people to take up positions early, and secondly, it is also to warn some people who have high ambitions and low ambitions.
But I didn’t expect that there would be no excellent ones, only average ones!
He pointed at a person and said:
"Luo Mingchu, someone in your family praised you for your calmness and general style, and asked me to arrange a position for you to lead the army."
"But what about you?"
"When I heard some movement, I raised my weapon and shouted into the air without even investigating, like a fool."
"Is this the style of a general? It made me laugh to death."
Rhodes pointed at another person:
"And you, I've seen things like being scared to the point of peeing in books, but last night you finally let me see a real person."
The person being pointed at lowered his head in shame.
Many people looked at him curiously. Feeling the intense gazes around him, this man wished he could crawl into the floor at this moment.
Rhodes frowned and glanced around, and everyone withdrew their gaze.
"What? Think this is interesting? Want to see who is so bad?"
"Bang!"
Rhodes slammed the table, pointed at them and cursed:
"How can you people be any better?"
"A group of so-called elites, I originally had very high expectations for you. I expected you to be able to achieve something and make my Luo family shine, but what?"
Rhodes cursed with hatred: "But you idiots are not even as good as the common people under me. Is this your true ability?"
"You are the worst class I have ever led!"
Rhodes waved, and several people with whips came out.
"Everyone get down."
Although a group of people didn't know how many times they were going to be beaten, none of them raised a voice to object.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
Three whips struck each person hard on the back.
The whip was not thick, it only hurt the flesh, not the bones.
But the pain is also heart-piercing pain.
Some people were screaming, while others were gritting their teeth and holding on for dear life.
Rhodes was too lazy to look at the ugliness of these people.
He waved his hand impatiently: "Go away! I don't want to tell you. If you act like this again, just go back to Yinlang City."
"Still an elite? Haha."
After receiving Rhode's instructions, the group of people climbed up from the ground tremblingly.
He lowered his head and walked away silently.
Many people frowned.
They are not stupid. If they think about it for a moment, they will know how miserable they and others performed last night.
It's not the fault of Rhodes for beating them. The level they performed was really not like the quality expected of a child from a big family.
The whips came down and woke them up.
Now.
They have gone from a comfortable environment to a world full of struggle.
The path you choose needs to be fought with all your strength, and the mentality of sightseeing and fun will not lead to success.
As they slowly settled down, the work efficiency of the entire fleet increased to a higher level.
Rhodes is also looking forward to their next performance.
