The sun is shining brightly.
The sound of waves crashing could be heard at the harbor.
Haizai stood on the deck in advance and waved the command flag.
The dull sound of drums suddenly resounded throughout the harbor.
“Get on board!!!”
Tie Niu led the team in front.
Board the ship at two locations simultaneously.
Ning Que watched all this with a smile.
The Fu ship was just being launched, and he planned to use it as his flagship. Tie Niu led his personal guards, and the brothers Hai Zai and Hai Gui served as captain and first mate respectively.
Tie Niu and his men lack sailing experience.
I just practiced briefly in the rivers.
Navigation should be left to professionals.
The Fu ship took away the supplies and carried 500 soldiers.
Of course, it’s not just armor and soldiers.
There are also some who are responsible for logistics work.
Like some firemen.
Plus two doctors and five nurses.
"You guys go your separate ways and get assigned dormitories."
"Meet on deck after tea."
“Staff arrived at their posts as quickly as possible.”
"promise!"
Looking at Tie Niu's instructions, Ning Que couldn't help but smile.
This guy is really talented.
Already able to stand on my own.
At first Tie Niu was actually very resistant.
Because he really can't swim...
The most abundant thing in Xiliang is sand.
He probably only took a bath once a year.
He really felt a little traumatized when he was asked to go on a long sea expedition.
Only after being educated by Ning Que did he understand.
Since Dafeng needs it, he will go and take it!
National interests are supreme.
Even if it is not his strong point, he can still learn it.
As long as I can serve my country, that's enough.
Fortunately, Tie Niu is very strong.
Never give up until you achieve your goal!
"Brother Hai, I will go to sea with you this time."
"The main purpose is to practice battle formations and wipe out the pirates."
"Don't worry, it's all right!" Hai Zai patted his chest and agreed, "As far as these pirates are concerned, you are not needed."
"It's no problem."
Ning Que waved his hand calmly.
This is the first time I’ve led troops out to sea in so many days.
Ning Que was also prepared for any eventuality.
Now Linzi has calmed down.
All counties are enthusiastic.
Actively involved in production.
Handicrafts also began to recover rapidly.
It won’t be long before Linzi surpasses its past!
Became the most prosperous county in the world in the past!
"Brother Hai, there's something you need to remember."
“Every day you go out to sea, you have to keep a log.”
“Any problem on board must be solved.”
"Also, the weather, wind direction, and hydrology...all need to be recorded."
"rest assured."
Haizai smiled and waved the booklet in his hand.
Although Ning Que has never been to sea, he is very intelligent.
The logbook he mentioned is very interesting.
It is also a preparation for future overseas trips.
What makes us human is inheritance.
Through writing, experience is passed on to future generations.
They are the pioneers, paving the way.
Those who come later can follow the path.
The boat master behind can use this as experience!
"I think it's about time."
Tie Niu immediately waved the command flag.
The sound of rapid drumming rang out.
The three hard sails were slowly raised through the winch.
There is also the royal flag symbolizing Dafeng, fluttering in the wind.
“Go out to sea!!!”
Following Tieniu's command, the Fuzhou ship creaked as it hoisted its heavy anchor. Following the wind, it slowly sailed out of the harbor. Behind it were many other large ships, closely following.
Ning Que stood on the deck with his hands behind his back.
The sea breeze blowing in his face made him enjoy it immensely.
Unfortunately, Shen Qinghe wasn't good at swimming. She was already suffering from severe morning sickness and wasn't suitable for boarding the ship. After she felt better, I'd take her on a cruise around Bohai.
"My Lord, the meal is ready."
"Okay." Ning Que turned and looked at the others, "Then let's go have dinner first."
"become."
The space on the Fuchuan was limited, and there was no dining hall. The firemen prepared the food, and each passenger lined up to receive it and return to their own room to eat. The person in charge of serving the food this time was a Silla maid, wearing a tall white hat and looking quite professional. Her main responsibility was to help in the kitchen, including serving the food.
Linzi lacks manpower.
Therefore, Ning Que boldly employed women.
Anyway, we don't expect them to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
As long as the logistics can be maintained.
"Your Majesty."
"Well, give me some food."
"promise."
The food on the ship is pretty good.
A heaping spoonful of bean rice.
Two pieces of steamed sea fish and kelp soup.
Plus a dish of fried cabbage and tofu.
One meat dish, one vegetable dish, and one soup!
There is also a sour orange.
Ning Que looked at the dishes and was quite satisfied.
From the captain to the ordinary soldier, all are the same.
There is nothing we can do about it.
Aside from the three guards of Prince Ning, the food in the Dafeng Army was rationed according to rank. The higher the rank, the better the food, and this was clearly stipulated.
But the conditions are not so good at sea.
There are limited supplies in the cabin, so we have to keep things simple.
At most, I could prepare some plum wine for the captain and the first mate.
"Green orange?"
"Wow, this is so sour."
"Pah, pah, pah, this is inedible!"
Even Haejae was so jealous that he wore a mask of pain.
They looked at each other, all confused.
"Junior brother, what do you mean?"
"This orange is really inedible..."
"It would be fine if you had apples or peaches instead."
Ning Que simply sat on the deck, enjoying the sea breeze while eating. Finally, he peeled an orange and took a bite, only to grimace at the sourness.
