Chapter 636 Deck Discourse
In the South China Sea in the primitive environment, the sky is as clear as washing, white clouds are like yarn, and the sky is bright.

Looking down, it is the clear ocean current unique to tropical seas.The tender green seabed reflects colorful rays of light, colorful sea fish shuttle among the red corals, and the scenery is wonderful.

The next moment, something unpleasant came.

After a "poof", someone spat into the sea.

Wu Sanye, who didn't realize that his quality was poor, wiped the corners of his mouth, and stuffed a new celluloid cigarette holder into his mouth as if nothing had happened.

I cherished it so much that I took a few puffs until the cigarette was burned out and the third master inhaled the unpleasant smell of plastic, only then did I find that the cheap celluloid cigarette holder had been burnt and could not be used.

After swearing at the fake products in the small commodity market in Shipai Village, New District in his native dialect, Mr. Wu flicked the cigarette holder into the clear sea water, opening a new chapter in human pollution of the ocean.

It is already the 10th day since departure.

The previous voyage was fairly smooth. In the South China Sea in November, the probability of encountering a storm is not high.Departing from Sai Kung, the fleet slowed down to adapt to the local sea conditions, went round and round, taking measurements along the way, and traveled southward slowly at a speed of 11-3 knots during the day and 4 knots at night.

In this way, the 500-kilometer sea journey has been wandering for 10 days.It was not until this morning that the fleet entered the Nansha waters from the north.

The waters off the Nansha Islands are complicated.According to the statistics of later generations, there are more than 230 islands, sandbars, hidden reefs, dark sands and dark beaches in this sea area.

However, in the seventeenth century, this number was probably inaccurate.No one knows how many hidden reefs and dark beaches there were hundreds of years ago, where they were located, and how much they have moved relative to later generations.

So, after reaching the periphery of the Nansha Islands, the bottom of the boat anchored directly in a large lagoon area, and did not enter the archipelago in a hurry.This is also the reason why everyone can enjoy the shallow water landscape in the depths of the ocean. However, most of the people in the fleet are immune to these. All the way from Daming, everyone has seen such scenery too much.

It can only be said that the temporary anchorage of the fleet gave Mr. Wu and his crew a chance to go out of the cabin and harm the environment.

"Third Master, smoke me!"

Wu Sanye threw away the cigarette holder on his front foot, and the clever little brother handed over the goods to his elder brother on his back foot.

"Well, yes, the shoulder pole has grown!"

It was He Biandan who handed the cigarette and spoke.

He Biandan, a porter who never gets enough to eat, is doing well in the Pioneering Army now.

Eating well is a small matter.After several previous missions to fight various thieves, He Biandan's reputation has already been established.Many people in the Pioneering Army now know that Wu Sanye has a eight-foot fierce man who is in charge of the battle.

Of course, people like to hear heroic stories.As for the timeless protective gear that He Biandan wears every time he falls into battle, no one mentions it.

Seeing the third master's smug leadership, someone beside him couldn't help but began to say sarcastic remarks: "Biandan, you have no eyesight, and only thought of cursing after seeing the third master's promotion? It's too late!"

It was Master Yusheng who spoke.

Huang Yusheng, the young master of the former rich man's family, is much stronger now.He has a three-millimeter haircut, wears a denim shirt, folds his arms, and leans on the side of the boat with a smile on his face.

What Young Master Yusheng said is right, Third Master Wu has indeed been promoted.

On the first day after the pioneering fleet set off, San Ye was personally appointed as the leader of the pioneering army and the deputy commander of the landing by the boss Wang Bo who presided over the deck combat meeting attended by all the team leaders.

The title of squadron leader is very valuable, and it already belongs to the senior commander level of the pioneering army.

Since the establishment of the pioneering army is relatively loose, Sanye, as the squadron leader, has the right to command all local pioneering army teams, regardless of the total number of 200 or 500, in the absence of the traverser's boss.

Hearing Young Master Yusheng's teasing, He Biandan smiled apologetically and took out another cigarette from the bamboo cigarette case to offer: "Brother Scholar, I have always admired him."

"uh-huh."

Yusheng smoked the shoulder pole, and it seemed that he was not sour anymore.However, as the master of the team, he had a lot to say today.

After thinking about it, Yusheng said thoughtfully again: "I've come all the way from Zhenghe Island, Lao Shizi, brother, I'm afraid it's not easy to be an official!"

After Yusheng finished speaking, the scene suddenly became a little quiet.

The reason why the topic suddenly became serious was actually another unremarkable title given to Mr. Wu when he was promoted: Deputy Commander of Landing.

The so-called deputy commander of the landing, in human terms, is the pit master. The commander responsible for the long-term garrison of the bridgehead.

Far away in the nameless sea, the Zhenghe Island that everyone has only seen on the map is not the Honji Coal Mine in Vietnam, which is close to Daming.Stationing in such a remote place, if something happens, it will be really ineffective, and it is all up to the family to earn their own life.

We all know the danger of this job.So after the past two days, everyone seemed to be lively and congratulated the eldest brother for his promotion every day, but in fact, his heart was a little bit drummed.

"what!"

The third master, who was silent before, probably felt the need to talk to his brothers.The next moment, he responded frankly: "The young master was joking, it's not easy at all."

"The officials under Marshal Cao are not the trash of the imperial court. If it weren't for my old Wu's blood and courage, and the support of you life-and-death brothers under my command, would Lord Wang be able to award this official title?"

As soon as the third master said these two words, the brothers immediately got excited: Yes, the official hat of the third master was also brought by our brothers who worked hard to help!

"Everyone knows that our pioneering army was originally formed to occupy the land of the savages. Nowadays, the military law is strict, and even if we don't have this official hat, you and my brother may have to go to Zheng He Island. Since everyone signed up to board Cao Dashuai's boat at the beginning, you don't have to regret taking the medicine today."

"Brothers, is this brother pertinent?"

Seeing the brothers nodding one after another, Wu Sanye clapped his hands with a smile: "It's a knife to extend the head, and a knife to shrink the head. If it's me, I'll spare a squadron leader for nothing. Do you think it's gain or loss?"

The third master broke the truth into pieces, and the brothers understood it.

Seeing the excitement in everyone's eyes, the third master knew it, and it was good for him: "You and I have known each other since the border of Yizhou, and now it has been a life-and-death friendship. I, Wu Meng, put my words here today: Brothers still support me, Lao Wu, and when I land on the shore, I, the squadron leader, will definitely protect my brothers carefully in the future!"

Speaking of this, Mr. Wu narrowed his eyes, bowed his waist, and lowered his voice: "Do you know what Mr. Wang promised to my old Wu Yun that day?"

A bunch of people put their heads together.

"Your Excellency told me privately that day: Wu Meng, the commander-in-chief is keeping an eye on this Zheng He Island! You guard the bridgehead well for me. Even if you open up the border for us, you will be a generation of wealth in the future."

At this point, the third master stretched out three fingers, and continued to imitate the tone of the adult that day: "Three years, just hold on to the most difficult three years. At that time, you have credit, and I will go through the formalities for you personally and transfer your compensation Turned into Zhang Sugang's shares. Do you know how many silver parks Zhangsugang has per square meter now?"

When the third master said this, he was already laughing from ear to ear.He patted his thigh vigorously, pointed at the group of younger brothers in front of him, and uttered his native dialect: "Nong's bastards, follow me, and there will be a day when Bai Xiangle will be happy!"

Hearing that my family only needs to stick to it for three years before they can go to the legendary Shanghai Bund flower business, a group of core younger brothers suddenly became enthusiastic, and expressed that they would follow the elder brother to do a good job in their careers.

And at this moment, the sound of a few rumbling gun salutes from the distant sea also put a perfect end to the heroic words of the third master: a fast sailing boat with beautiful lines appeared in people's vision.

The "Yuandou" exploration ship is the first exploration ship named in the earliest period.So far, Yuandou has been upgraded to the fourth generation.

The latest generation of Yuandou is a shallow-draft professional exploration ship.It is equipped with advanced sonar and radar, and even a computer surveying and mapping recording system, which can be described as a model of non-martial ethics.

The reason why the pioneering fleet anchored in the lagoon was to wait for the arrival of the Yuandou.

In fact, as early as a month ago, the Yuandou was ordered to come to the Nansha waters to carry out surveying and mapping operations.

After the two sides met today, the Yuan Dou soon berthed near the flagship of the fleet.Next, a small boat carried a few figures who climbed down the rope ladder and boarded the Yuandou.

After that, the fleet first launched a round of replenishment to the Yuandou.Each ship then dispatched small boats to hoist supplies and shuttle them back and forth.

In the evening, the captains who received the order gathered on the flagship deck for a briefing.

In the end, Mr. Wu, who came back from the meeting, told everyone: The way forward is clear, and we will start tomorrow.

Early in the morning of the second day, with the sound of a trumpet, the fleet pulled anchor.

After this departure, commander Sha Zhengming ordered the collective to adjust to a low speed of 3 knots.All the ships lined up in a single column, with the Yuandou as the navigator, and plunged into the depths of Nansha.

Along the way, the column slowly followed the Yuandou, circumventing various dangerous areas carefully, and stopping from time to time to repair and measure the route.

With the rough route detected by the Yuandou in advance, there were no major twists and turns along the way.The advanced technology beyond the times provided a guarantee, and the fleet was able to escape numerous hidden reefs and dark beaches.

Driving carefully in this way, the sea journey was less than 500 kilometers, and it took another 5 days to walk abruptly.It was not until November 11 that the pioneering fleet passed through the Nansha Islands, which are familiar to people in later generations, and saw the yellow-green land color belt on the horizon.

Even in later generations, Palawan Island, which is close to the humid tropics of the equator, is the best preserved island in South Asia.What's more, it's the seventeenth century.The western part of the island, where the fleet finally arrived, is completely in a primitive tropical style.

This tropical dense forest terrain is excellent for tourism.However, in the eyes of those with telescopes in the fleet at this moment, this place is literally hell—dense dense primitive tropical plants occupy every inch of land on the island, and the density far exceeds that of the coast of Vietnam where everyone has stayed before.

Thinking of opening up plantations and mines in this environment in the future, all the traversers in the fleet at the moment felt their scalps tingle.
