Extraordinary Sailing

Chapter 17 Joining the Army

Port Gabriel.

The third largest military port on the west coast of the Kingdom of Phalitis, facing the boundless Black Sea, is also one of the most important bridgeheads in the era of great navigation that began two hundred years ago.

In addition to the Kingdom's Third Fleet stationed here, it is also an important business distribution center with a large population and a prosperous population.

Even the huge income from ocean trade has filled a large part of the Third Fleet's military expenditure. For the kingdom, both its geographical location and its economic and military influence are very important.

afternoon.

Captain Shelley led his team to perform routine duties on the guard tower in the port. The sun is shining today, and the sea is not too stormy, but Captain Shelley's mood is not as good as the weather.

"My goddess Judy!"

It was originally a very suitable day for fishing, but I had to come to duty. It would be great if we could ask Judy out to go fishing together on such a day and spend a wonderful sunny afternoon!

While dreaming, the captain listlessly observed the distant sea with the telescope in his hand.

The blue sea, the white clouds, the unchanging scenery, and a merchant ship.

Nothing out of the ordinary.

"Wait, what's that? There's a boat behind, with black sails!!! It's a pirate!"

Captain Shelley, who was born as a son of a wealthy family and had never even been on a battleship a few times, turned pale with fright and was about to jump up almost immediately.

"Clang, boom, boom"

Continuous alarm bells reverberated on the sea surface, causing panic in the port. Since the establishment of the port, no pirates had dared to come here to provoke Gabrad, and it was the first time that the sirens of pirates echoed.

In the afternoon of the next day after the battle with the Blood Anchor ended, half a day later than the scheduled arrival time, when the Huang Hu and the Blood Anchor approached the port one after the other.

Captain Joseph never thought that one day he would receive such a "grand" welcome!

Under the "escort" of two double-deck battleships with sixty-four guns, the Huang Hu and the Blood Anchor slowly entered the berth. Goddess, those are two Tier 4 battleships!

If the semaphore had not been used to inform the identity in advance, the navy on the warship had doubts, and the whole ship might have sunk into the sea with joy and sorrow.

The merchant ship had just stopped.

The captain didn't dare to delay, and with a more agile posture than the young man, he flew off the Huanghu and explained clearly to the admiral who came to contact him, and then he lifted the oolong alarm issued by the rookie captain.

Afterwards, the corpses of the pirates were lifted off the Blood Anchor, and the heroic deeds of the Yellow Hunk spread throughout the port like the wind, causing a huge sensation in Gabrad.

You must know that even if the naval warships are dispatched to patrol the route every day, most of the pirates will be driven away. In rare cases, the artillery fire advantage of multiple warships can be used to sink the opponent.

It is very rare that the pirates can be wiped out in the boarding battle and the opponent's pirate ship can be completely captured.

After all, the pirate ship can't do anything else, it runs first-class fast. When encountering a warship cruising or turning around and running away when something is wrong, it is also difficult for warships to chase for the safety of the route.

Although it was very lucky, a merchant ship was able to kill the looting pirates and capture the other party's pirate ship. It was enough for the captain to brag for a lifetime.

If you attend a celebrity party, many ladies and socialites may give him a chance to meet privately in order to hear his heroic deeds. When the time comes, we will have a good chat, and maybe we will have a romantic encounter.

Just as Captain Joseph and the crew of the Yellow Hu were enjoying the enthusiastic cheers of the people of Gabred, Ivan had already quietly disembarked with his share of spoils—gold coins from various countries worth two hundred golden lions.

Although he didn't want to make a big splash before joining the navy, so that his future colleagues would have bad thoughts. But such a sensational event is obviously not so easy to hide.

With the spread of the incident, his name has quietly entered the ears of certain fleet executives, arousing the interest of some people.

Regarding the spoils of war, all countries have introduced relevant laws, and all the spoils obtained from combating piracy on the ocean belong to the individual and do not need to be handed over to the country.

Therefore, the follow-up disposal of the fast sloop, the Blood Anchor, and the temporarily unknown pirate bounty are still worth looking forward to.

As for whether Captain Joseph will take over this part of the Golden Lion, Ivan is not worried. After all, this world is an extraordinary world, and the relationship between individuals and organizations is not absolutely weak and strong.

Perhaps in Captain Joseph's mind, Ivan may be the stronger side.

After Ivan got off the boat, he didn't hang around, but went straight to the topic.

When inquiring about the address of the conscription office on the pier, Aiwen received enthusiastic guidance from the local residents, who not only pointed out the address of the enlistment office, but also explained the entire conscription process for him.

Thanks to the enthusiastic passers-by, Aiwen walked through more than a dozen large and small streets with his luggage on his back, and finally came to a remote courtyard with mottled walls.

After repeatedly confirming that the rusty brass doorplate reads "Recruitment Office of the Third Fleet of the Royal Navy", I realized what the passers-by who came to point out to me meant that it was not easy to find.

Ai Wen wondered, is it so poor to be in the navy?

"that"

Ai Wen turned around, and a man with slightly dark skin who was half a head taller than himself and as strong as an iron tower showed a shy smile:

"Well, I want to ask, is this the Navy Recruitment Office?"

"Uh, I haven't gone in yet, but it's here on the door plate. Are you also here to join the army?" Ai Wen had a slight liking for this simple-looking guy, and said to him with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I'm Gary Farman, I'm here to join the navy, hello! hello!"

"Irving Garriott, hello!"

The burly man wiped his hands vigorously on his clothes, held Aiwen's outstretched right hand and shook it vigorously.

After letting go, it seemed that he suddenly remembered something, and looked at Ai Wen with a look of panic: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I forgot when I got excited, are your hands okay?"

Aiwen spread out his clean and white right hand, there was nothing abnormal, but a prompt popped up in the digital vision.

Name: Gary Farman

Sex: Male

Status: Reserve Navy

Attribute: Constitution 0.7

Strength 0.65

agile unknown

intelligence unknown

Skills: unknown

This physique and strength data are similar to those of trainees who have gone through several years of orthodox knight training.

Ai Wen understood it, he was another guy with natural supernatural powers, and he was even more perverted than his first opponent, Billy the Bear.

Seeing that he couldn't control his strength at all, Aiwen knew that this guy's strength was absolutely innate. Unlike myself, relying on systematic training and practice, and accumulating little by little to reach the current height, there are no uncontrollable problems.

Otherwise, I would not shake hands with others and worry about hurting them.

"Sure enough, you should go out and see more." Ai Wen secretly sighed.

Only a few days after leaving Leopold's small place, I have met so many powerful guys, the days to come must be very exciting!

"My hands are fine, don't worry, my strength is also very strong. But you really have to pay attention in the future, if you change it to someone else, you may directly fracture it!"

Smiling at Gary indifferently, Ivan's face was a little strange, how could such a tall and strong person blush? It's really strange.

"I, I will pay attention." Touching the back of his head, this guy obviously had no idea, and his voice of assurance was extremely low.

"Let's go, since we've reached the door, let's go in and have a look!" Aiwen stepped into the small courtyard first, walking toward the depths of the courtyard along the long corridors full of shrubs on both sides.

After a while.

Ai Wen was sitting upright on the wooden chair, and the major officer in military uniform with a serious face on the opposite side was writing something quickly on the page in front of him.

"Name?"

"Alvin Garriott."

"age?"

"Fifteen."

Glancing up at him, without saying anything, the officer lowered his head and continued to fill out the form.

"Where is your hometown?"

"Leopold."

"Do you have any special skills?"

"Sword skills are not bad, and I know some knowledge of navigation and medicine."

The officer made a clear expression, ended the questioning, and wrote his name at the bottom of the form. He didn't ask Ivan the obvious question of whether he could read or not, and asked him to write his name on the form as well.

"Get the stuff out!"

"What, oh, oh." Although he didn't know why the officer would know, but remembering Viscount Andrea's request before leaving, he obediently took out the so-called "letter of introduction".

Seeing Aiwen's doubts, the officer gave him a blank look: "Don't you yourself know how different you noble children are from ordinary young people in terms of appearance and behavior?

Tiantianjing wants to pretend to be an ordinary person and not rely on the family to make a career. Don't you know that it will cause a lot of trouble for our work? "
