5298 Curious mind

,!

Wuchao Lake.

Luo Xingchen waited for the fleet brought by Xiong Liangxiao and others.

He gave a time limit. If Xiong Liangxiao and others could not arrive within the time limit, then he would not mind taking the fleet to wander around Wangjia Water Village. By then, it would be difficult to say anything.

The friendship that Wang Meihua and Xiong Liguo established with Yang Ruoqing and Liu Xueyun in the capital disappeared. He was not so easy to talk to.

Fortunately, Xiong Liangxiao is not a fool.

Although he also has some arrogance of young people, he understands practicality and knows when to be cowardly, and that's fine.

"Admiral, what should we do with the Wang family's fleet?" Fengsheng stood on the left side and asked.

"Leave it to Steward Wang to deal with the Wang family's fleet. Fengsheng, what you have to do is to select suitable ones from the Wang family's fleet, incorporate them into the imperial navy, and start new training."

Luo Xingchen continued: "As you know, our navy in the Admiral's Mansion is under construction of new warships. Although there are some sailors now, it is not enough. Not only are there not enough manpower, but their personal qualities are also insufficient.

If it’s not enough, give them a new type of ship and they may not be able to play well.”

This is what Luo Xingchen is worried about. The technical problems on the new warships have been almost solved, but there are not enough qualified sailors, let alone generals who can take charge alone!

Lu Zhanlong can be regarded as a potential stock, but he is only a potential stock. There is no problem at all for him to command ordinary ships. After all, his experience lies here.

However, it is not easy to command those newly built new ships. They involve not only one or two new weapons, but also the power used by the new ships is no longer sails, but new steam engines.

"Don't worry, Admiral. I heard that Madam can give you some help. Maybe there are powerful generals there," Fengsheng said.

"Don't expect too much from my mother. Uncle Zhongqin Lu Tao, who came here last time, has considerable accomplishments in shipbuilding. He has made great contributions to the creation of a new type of ship this time. But, Uncle Zhongqin Lu Tao

He is not capable of commanding wars, and asking him to become a general would be a disservice to him."

Luo Xingchen understood that Yang Ruoqing was not omnipotent and relied on her mother for everything, so why did she need him?

"Uncle Zhongqin Lu Tao is still very loyal. He is a very good person, but Ci can't control the army. He is not suitable to lead an army." Fengsheng also nodded. He had come into contact with Uncle Zhongqin Lu Tao, even in a secret shipyard.

He sent people to handle Lu Tao's personal security.

He naturally understood what kind of person Zhongqin Bo Lu Tao was.

The problems before Luo Fengtang were not only the problem of skilled soldiers, but also the problem of generals, both of which could not be solved overnight.

The navy is more difficult to build than the army, especially sailors who are proficient in water properties and familiar with water warfare are even more rare.

"Admiral, the Wang family's fleet has entered the port, should we go over to greet them?" Steward Wang Yu stood on the right side and remained silent, but now that he saw that the Wang family's fleet had entered the port one after another, he had to speak up.

"Go, why don't you go." Luo Xingchen raised his eyebrows.

Since they came on time, he wouldn't be pretending to be someone else.

At this time, in the evening, more than 20 ships entered the port and parked in an endless stream.

None of these ships are small. After all, they all sail on the big lakes, and can even enter the ocean through the estuaries of rivers. When these ships were designed, they could sail and do business on Wuchao Lake and Caizi Lake as close as possible, and as far away as possible.

You can do ocean business and even escape through the ocean.

The first two generations of the Wang family were indeed foresighted, but later on, how could they have imagined that a great water pirate, the Stone River Bandit, would appear in Wuchao Lake.

The Shihe Bandits blocked all the outlets of Wuchao Lake and blocked the ports where business could be done, driving the Wangjia Water Village into a dead end.

Of course, the ultimate goal of the Shihe bandits is to conquer the Wang family water village and make them surrender. In this way, they have forced many water thieves to surrender, so that there are hundreds of water thieves in Wuchao Lake, and their number is getting smaller and smaller.

Gradually, they became extinct.

Xiong Liangxiao stood at the front of the ship. He faced everyone and first looked at Luo Xingchen and his party who were coming to greet them.

This time when he comes back, he will never look at Luo Xingchen like he did last time.

Last time he came, he treated Luo Xingchen as a baby admiral, and his contempt was palpable. But this time, when he stood on the bow of the ship, he was already respectful and showed his attitude.

"Brother Xiong moved very quickly this time."

After receiving Xiong Liangxiao at the dock, Luo Xingchen said with a smile.

However, Xiong Liangxiao knelt down on one knee with a serious expression and said: "The sinner Xiong Liangxiao led Wangjia Water Village to come to apologize."

"Excuse me? What crime do you have? This time you understood the righteousness and chose the bright side. From now on, you will move from one victory to another." Luo Xingchen coughed twice.

Luo Xingchen himself admired his ability to speak. These words were not his own. They were all from the stories his mother, Yang Ruoqing, told him.

"Admiral, Xiong is so grateful that he will do his best and be loyal to the death." Xiong Liangxiao spoke sonorously and forcefully.

The scene that the two staged seemed to be real, but in fact when it came to the essence, it was Luo Xingchen who conquered Xiong Liangxiao with artillery.

Artillery is the real justice. Whoever has the bigger artillery is more just.

"Brother Xiong, let others take care of the rest. You come back to the Admiral's Mansion with me." Luo Xingchen said.

This performance was still necessary, to distinguish priorities in front of others, at least to give those who followed Xiong Liangxiao a reassurance that they would not have to worry about the court going back on its word or playing any tricks.

Fengsheng and Steward Wang took over the remaining tasks, which was how to reorganize the Wang family fleet, break up their existing organization, and regroup. This is also the meaning of the question.

After sitting down in the reception room of the Admiral's Mansion, in addition to Xiong Liangxiao, Song Chen was also present in the Wangjia Water Village.

Jiang An came with Xiong Liangxiao from Wangjia Water Village, so he had to cooperate with Fengsheng and Butler Wang Yu to handle the Wangjia fleet, so he couldn't come over.

In addition, Luo Xingchen also called Lu Zhanlong over.

Lu Zhanlong was so dizzy from Master Wang's teachings that he set off as soon as he heard the admiral's call. Now he feels more comfortable anywhere than in the school.

"Admiral, what's the important thing for calling me here?"

Lu Zhanlong had already sorted out his mental state on the way and entered the living room. He let out a heroic laugh and walked in.

"Of course there is something important, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you to come." Luo Xingchen said.
