Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 21: Conflict
While all the recruits waited a little nervously, the day to board the ship finally arrived.
There is no grand ceremony as imagined, because all the warships that need to replenish their troops actually have their own missions. The world is vast, and one trip to the sea may last for several months. It is impossible to gather them all together and hold them again. Grand ceremony.
But in addition to Eugene, the Third Fleet still sent a civilian lieutenant colonel to be responsible for sending each batch of recruits onto the ship to show their importance.
The boarding plan has the first and then the later, the dispatched warships will maintain training before they return to Hong Kong, and continue to wait nervously. In fact, most of these enlisted recruits started with small tier six warships such as sloops, unless they performed very well during the recruit training period.
Of course, it's a different matter if you are a powerful child or a high-achieving student who graduated from the Royal Naval Academy.
It was not until a week after the boarding activities began that Ivan was directly awarded the rank of warrant officer (alternate officer) as the number one in the overall training of this batch of recruits, and entered the battle sequence on the "Silver Wing" cruise ship .
Aiwen also knew that things would not have been so simple without the letter of introduction from the Viscount. Because most of the alternate officers on the ship are graduates of the elite or colleges and universities, ordinary civilian recruits want this kind of status, and no matter how strong they are, they have to survive the waves of the sea for two years before speaking.
Different from the same period, most sailors boarded the sixth-tier communications ship, and the Silver Wing belonged to the fifth-tier cruise ship. With a total length of 45 meters and forty artillery, it is also one of the main battleships of the "Private Fleet" that all countries have a tacit understanding of. With a capacity of 250 people, the actual crew is now less than 200 people.
Among the six tiers of naval warships, the first four tiers are battleships, the full name is "main front battleships", which are the main battle units that are eligible to participate in large-scale fleet naval battles.
Silver Wing is not up to the rank of battleship, but it is only under the battleship. But since Eugene solemnly said that he was responsible for the arrangement, the particularity of this warship naturally didn't stop there. To be precise, the Captain of the Silver Wing, Colonel Gehr, didn't stop there.
Captain Geer is outstanding, not only a powerful veteran knight, but also a former Tier 4 battleship captain. It was only because the original warship was seriously damaged in the battle (actually this is only an official statement, the real reason is inconvenient to explain to the outside world), the warship was returned to the factory for overhaul, and the Third Fleet did not temporarily replace the Tier 4 warship, which condescended to use this temporarily. A five-tier ship.
Otherwise, in normal times, it is not so easy to send Aven directly to a Tier 4 ship as an officer.
It’s just that what he didn’t know was that he got more “things” from this battleship than he thought.
In addition, Ivan was familiar with the Colonel Eugene, but he didn't think much about it. After all, there are many cars with the same name and the same surname in the world, and it is normal to run into a familiar name.
When Ivan carried Gary on board the Silver Wing with his suitcase on his back, he realized that among the thirty soldiers who supplemented the Silver Wing, only himself and Gary were recruits, and the other twenty-eight They are all veterans drawn from Tier VI communications ships.
said he was a "veteran" but he was not too old, most likely he was twenty years old, but he had been at sea for a long time, and it seemed that he was much older than his actual age.
These veterans saw that Aiwen and Gary's vision was a little subtle, and they were afraid to make big moves, but they faintly excluded the two of them from the large team. There is a tradition of veterans bullying recruits in any world, not to mention that the opportunities that they have only obtained after many years of service are easily obtained by two new recruits. Naturally, they are unbalanced.
However, the two of them are not afraid at all. Not to mention the peak trainee knight Ivan, even Gary, a newcomer who has just embarked on the extraordinary road, can hang them.
Because Captain Gehr had already gone to the naval base to report on his duties after the ship docked, the recruits had no chance to meet the Captain for the time being. So after Eugene and the Silver Wing briefly handed over, the recruits were led by the old crew of the Silver Wing to settle down in their respective cabins.
Aiwen’s cabin is at the front of the ship. It is an independent single room dedicated to the officers and alternate officers on the ship. The conditions are much better than the common cabin where the crew is crowded in the lower cabin.
Although Ivan is not a person who can’t endure hardship, but think about the scene where dozens of hundreds of big men who may not take a bath for months are crowded together. Ivan confronts Viscount Andrea and Eugene. The colonel was very grateful.
But Irvine was obviously happy too early. He is very satisfied with the environment on his side, but it may not be the case on Gary's side.
To be honest, Ivan had already anticipated this situation, but did not expect the conflict to come so soon!
Major Eugene was able to send Gary up together because of his extraordinary talents, but he didn’t have the ability to give him a warrant officer rank, and of course he went to the same "veterans" on the new ship. cabin.
The cause is not important. Even if you want to find fault, even an honest person like Gary Irving can be easily stirred.
"Beat him, let this kid know who will have the final say on the boat in the future."
"Dare not to be obedient, you can sleep with everyone's toilet from now on!"
"It's just a mere recruit. When we were fighting the pirates, you were still breastfeeding."
It's normal for veterans to bully recruits, and usually recruits are disadvantaged parties as well. But it's different in this world, they choose the wrong target for bullying!
When a group of people pushed each other onto the deck, Ivan, who heard the noise, also walked out. But he didn't directly step forward to support Gary, leaning at the door of the aisle to see the results of Gary's training during this period.
Except for the necessary left-behind personnel on the Silver Wing’s arrival at port today, most of the crew have already disembarked and went to relax in the bustling downtown area of Gabriel. The sailors who stayed behind saw this scene instead of preventing them and getting together. In groups of three to five, they watched the excitement with interest.
Looking at the group of veterans surrounding him, Gary smiled contemptuously: "Stop talking nonsense and fight! I will listen to you if I lose, and you must listen to me if I win."
Gary, who has greatly improved through Aiwen's "training", will not discourage anyone of his age except Aiwen.
"Hahaha, is this recruit out of mind? Think he is a tall man, do you think he is invincible after a few days of training in swordsmanship?"
"Let him taste the power of us veterans of all battles."
"Yes, yes~IndoMTL.com~ It is better to suffer now than to encounter pirates and eat lead bombs in the future. This kid also wants to thank us."
This group of veterans was obviously divided into several small groups and there was no unified leadership, but the opinions were very agreed, that is, to give this ignorant boy a bit of a bitter taste.
A sturdy young man walked out and threw his saber to his companion: "Let me come." After boarding the ship, everyone's weapons were real guys. Although preparing to fight, no one has the courage to use the sword.
After finishing speaking, without waiting for other people's reaction, he set up a posture and rushed directly to Gary. A group of veterans moved slightly apart, ready to appreciate how the veterans abused the recruits.
"Drink! Give me a punch!"
"Boom!"
It's just that this guy went fast and came back faster. Just halfway through his fist, he kicked Gary back with a "bang" and threw himself into the crowd of onlookers.
"Ah! Jason, how are you?"
When the sturdy young man's companion helped him up, someone rushed up again.
"I will teach him."
"Boom!"
is another kick.
"..."
Gary had never been trained by the Cavaliers Breathing Method, and his natural physique was as high as 0.7. Now how can ordinary people with the highest physique be able to contend with 0.5?
Just imagine how unstoppable the blood anchor's first mate Klulu, who had only 0.6 agility and 0.7 agility, was unstoppable on the Yellow Husky. Gary is no worse than him now.
"Let's go together! Revenge the brethren!" I don't know who in the crowd shouted, and all of them rushed up.
"Jealousy is indeed one of the original sins!" Seeing this scene, Ivan sighed slightly, took off his sword, and rushed forward as well.
