"Little Zheng Nansheng has met the big boss!"

At three o'clock in the morning, Yang Qi, the head of the family, quickly brought over the five team members who went out to patrol the island to look for boats. The leader of the team was a specially recruited musketeer named Zheng Nansheng, who had been in the Ming Dynasty in the original world. He had served as a low-level officer in the army. Although he was young, he was very shrewd and steady. Therefore, after meeting his leader, the man who understood the rules of the army first knelt down on one knee respectfully and saluted, and then reported to him about the island patrol in a low tone.

"Master, the younger one followed your instructions and took four brothers to patrol the island along the coastline. Everything was normal at first, but when they reached a peak three miles west of Neiwan Mountain (the nameless hill surrounding Neiwan) , but accidentally discovered through clairvoyance that there was a fortune ship with its sails lowered parked on the sea not far from the main island, and looking at its appearance, it looked very much like the one that was severely damaged in yesterday's naval battle! The small ship I thought this discovery was very important and must be reported to the boss immediately, so I decided to stop patrolling the island without permission and rushed back to see you..."

"A damaged ship? Uncle Six, look..." After listening to the report from his men, Kang Lin almost twisted the wrinkles on his forehead into the character "Chuan". He also believed that this matter was indeed a serious matter. , so he sent Yang Qi to the beach and invited back Liu Laoliu, who was acting as a temporary supervisor.

"Master, the old man thinks that the owner of this lucky ship is probably the group that was defeated by the Fierce Shark Village in yesterday's naval battle. They suffered heavy losses in the naval battle and encountered a violent storm, so they surrendered. The sails were anchored here to avoid the wind and waves... Therefore, the old man wanted to ask the master to immediately order the fleet to enter the second level alert state. (Kanglin established the alert system while establishing the fleet and establishing the management leader. The second level alert system was established at the same time. High-level alert means that weapons are stored not far from people and are ready for combat at any time), speeding up the repair of ships, and sending special personnel to climb high to observe the enemy's situation..." Liu Laoliu has been sailing for half his life, and he is very aware of the law of the jungle. activities, so he immediately made his suggestion to Conlin.

"Yang Qi, immediately send my order and ask the newly recruited watchers in the team to immediately climb up to observe the enemy's situation. The others will continue to repair the ships and wait for my orders at any time. In addition, Commander Yan Siyan and Fan Jing (i.e. Fan Jing) will Beard) Captain Fan and two other soldiers are here for me."

"Yes, Master." Yang Qi is now the busiest person in the fleet, because every order from the Master has to be conveyed through him as the messenger! So after receiving the order, he didn't have time to rest for a while, and hurriedly went everywhere to deliver the order.

"Master, you are looking for me!" The bird ship commanded the temporary carpenters and blacksmiths to repair the ship and salvage the cannon that sank in the shoal. Yan Si and Fan Huzi hurriedly put down what they were doing after receiving the order from Yang Qi from the master. , trotted all the way to the fleet commander, the boss Kang Ling.

A temporary carpenter is a wild craftsman who has not been trained and graded in the imperial base's wood workshop system. He knows a little about carpentry repairs, but cannot make major repairs. The same goes for temporary blacksmiths when building warships.

"Commander Yan, Commander Fan, our sentinels found a stranded fortune ship with lowered sails on the sea not far away. They were afraid of alerting the other party and did not go any further for investigation. From the data, you two We are all elite soldiers in the army and have rich experience in combat. Therefore, Kang sent someone to find you and wanted to hear what you two think about this matter..." In fact, this was Kang Lin's second time seeing him. These two infantry officers were specially recruited, but the intelligence bonus given to Kang Lin by the system allowed this guy to accurately call these two people's surnames immediately.

"Master, I would like to ask. Judging from the information sent back by the sentry, the enemy ship is not far away from us. It only takes a moment to raise the full sail, but why has it not arrived yet? You must know that the sentry has returned Also, the master sent the order, and it has taken more than two seconds for me to arrive. Therefore, I boldly guessed that the lucky ship with lowered sails may have had a problem itself, and it was unable to move and was trapped in the same place..." Different He grew up in New China and grew up in the head of Kangda under the red flag. After all, Yan Si came from a serious military family. He also served under the traitor Kong Youde in Denglai, Shandong. Kang Lin was not a veteran with military vision. Liu Laoliu and others could not compare, so after listening to Kang Lin's words, he was the first to ask a question.

"Master, what Commander Yan said is reasonable. In addition, based on my humble opinion, I will send out capable personnel in small boats to investigate, and at the same time, we will immediately organize other personnel to remove the artillery from the ship and transport it to the commanding heights of Neiwan Mountain for use. Resist possible attacks!" The musketeer officer who was born in the Mauvan Longpi Island Army is also experienced in combat. In addition to agreeing with the gunner's purpose, he also proposed more specific defensive measures.

"Very good. What the two commanders said is very reasonable. I might as well do it. Then let's do it according to your opinions!" Although Kang Lin has barely got rid of his identity as a military blind man, he still has the same military command. He was a newbie, so he could only agree to the suggestions put forward by these two subordinates with Liu Laoliu's affirmative look and the principle of accepting advice with an open mind.

"The master is wise!" Seeing that the master approved his suggestion, both Yan and Fan spoke with a bit of sincerity and enthusiasm. They were all from the frontier army of the Ming Dynasty. They were used to seeing incompetent generals, commanders and civil servants who knew nothing but still gave blind orders. When something went wrong, they would use their subordinates to punish the crime. How had they ever seen Kang Lin, who was so sensible and sensible? Shangguan got the opinion of his subordinates, so the two of them stepped forward and saluted, thanking the master for his appreciation and trust in them.

"Uncle Liu, you, Brother Lai, and Xiao Wu will stay here to repair the ship and guard the prisoners. Kang, along with Captain Yan and Captain Fan, will go to inspect the lucky ship and see What exactly is going on..."

"Well, Master, you must not do this. You are the leader of an army, so you must not take risks lightly!" Yan Si and Fan Huzi were very happy that the Master could adopt their opinions. But unexpectedly, they heard the fat man say something like this, which almost frightened the two of them so much that they even bit off the base of their tongues! Who is Fatty? He is the leader of a fleet, and now he wants to go on an adventure with him to an unknown area. If something unexpected happens during this period, those brothers will become sinners through the ages... At this thought, Yan Fan Er People hurriedly spoke to dissuade him.

"It's okay. Although we are not as powerful as the two captains, we are not weak, and with our great strength, we are more than enough to protect ourselves, so you two don't need to persuade me anymore!" Kang Lin Liu Laoliu knew about his temper, so he did not step forward to dissuade him, but Yan Sifan and the bearded brothers did not know. Therefore, when the two of them were about to speak out to dissuade them again, they were waved by the master. Dismissed!

—————————————————————————

"Brother Yan, Brother Fan, this old man is two years older than you, so I asked you to call me brother. I hope you won't take offense!" Liu Laoliu is the chief manager of the fleet. Kang Lin was in high spirits just now, so he can't pour cold water on him. Therefore, he could only wait until this guy went to prepare his equipment before he had the opportunity to pull Yan Fan aside and start giving routine instructions.

"I believe that without the old man saying anything, you also understand who the soul of our fleet is, and you also know what the consequences will be if our fleet is without him. Therefore, the old man here wants you to promise that no matter what happens in the future, No matter what the situation, even if you sacrifice your own lives, you must protect the master! And if you can't do it, don't blame Liu for turning his back and ruthlessly taking off your two heads as a sacrifice to the Dragon King..." Liu When Lao Liu said this, his usual gentle and kind demeanor had disappeared, replaced by a look of ferocity and terror!

"Sixth Master, your boss can rest assured. Even if we risk our brother's life at the critical moment, we will protect our boss..." Although Yan Fan and his two men were from the frontier army that killed many people, they did not dare to do so at this moment. Looking at Liu Laoliu's sharp eyes like eagle eyes, the instincts developed from years of fighting on the battlefield told them that this old man who usually always obeys the boss is not an easy character to mess with. Once he is really angered, it will come from The blows to him will inevitably be continuous and follow him like a shadow!

"Well, I hope you two can keep your word..." When Liu Laoliu saw Kang Lin coming this way, he immediately signaled Yan Fan and others to stop talking, and stood aside with a "smiling smile".

"Okay, let's go, Uncle Six, I'll take care of everything here!" Kang Lin had a Yanling knife hanging on his waist and a matchlock gun on his shoulder. He didn't notice the "little secret" between the three of them. , but majestically took the lead and jumped into the small sampan that came with the bird boat, and could not help but wave to Yan Fan and the other two who were still on the shore, asking them to hurry up and board the boat.

"Hurry up and get on the boat!" Hearing Liu Laoliu's cold voice, Yan and Fan couldn't help but shudder. Then they didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly picked up the matchlock gun and waist knife and chased the master. Jumped on the sampan.
