Chapter 278 The Fleet

See commander in chief identity to fight for, Li Ding is a little lost. Iori Harto hit him several times. Others joined in the joke.

After quieting them down, I continued. "Let me tell you the details. We'll have a navy, and I suggest NAT be in charge."

"Chief Xie." NAT stood up and bowed excitedly.

As he sat back down, he looked puzzled and stood up again. "Chief, did you not promise me that I would be governor? How did you become a navy general?"

"That will come later. Aren't these five kingdoms still unconquered?"

He sat back down with two oops.

"In addition, we need to set up a public security bureau. Let Li Ding take charge of the public security affairs of Bukuk Island. Iori Harto was in charge of things like registering marriages."

The original cane according to weave nodded, Li Ding is still a little dissatisfied.

"With the exception of the security forces and the navy, the rest of the army will be organized into an army, under the command of Jongbu and John."

"What about us? Wu Wa asked anxiously.

"Muka is now in charge of logistics, managing the storage and deployment of supplies. Wu Wa is responsible for civil affairs and household registration management. You two have been apart many times, so stay together."

"Thank you, chief."

"Yunna is still the same. Lee Wan-seok is in charge of finance. I paused. "We have no currency now. For the time being, no wages will be paid. Are you okay with that?"

Everyone shook their heads.

"Good. For the next few days, everyone is going to have a heavy task. Each of you must do your job well. As soon as The island of Cuckoo is fully settled, we will take back the Island of Brass. Then the five kingdoms were conquered. The personnel was decided. At the same time, we will choose places in the highlands to build camps and build large ships. Perfect every aspect of the job." With that, I asked each of them to add something.

"I'll tell you." Cui Bin began, "We have sulfur on the island. Before we left Bugu Island, I buried some saltpeter. It's probably enough for a thousand or so grenade bombs, and with that, it's definitely not realistic to defeat the Five Kingdoms. After the brass island is recaptured, I propose that we destroy the kingdom of saltpeter first."

"That's a good idea, that's settled."

"That's what I said."

"Where are the others? I glanced over.

When there was nothing to say, I called the meeting off.

Back home, Li Ding ran over, his face is not happy.

I deliberately said: "Or I can give you the leader."

Li Ding repeatedly wave a hand, explain a way: "fly elder brother, I can have no that meaning. I just don't think you've given me a job that matches my accomplishments."

"What position do you want to take?"

"I don't know. It's just not fair."

"Is your contribution bigger than others'?" Zhang Yutong said sarcastically.

Li Ding once had no words. I sat down beside him and put my hand on his shoulder and said, "Li Ding, you should know that we are the closest brothers."

Li Ding nodded heavily: "Of course, we are the first to meet. Of the five men, we are the only two still alive."

"Won't that be it?" I spread out my hand: "We this kind of relationship, is others can compare? Should I put other deserving people first in my assignments? You're my best brother, so maybe I should lower you a little and show everyone THAT I'm fair and square."

Li Ding looked down and pondered for a while. Then she became happy and patted her forehead and said, "Brother Fei, you see my consciousness is still too low. I forgot to put myself in your shoes."

"Do you understand now?"

"I see. You may rest assured that I shall not fight for any more office. I will continue to be your best brother." Li Ding promised.

I nodded.

"That I have no matter, went back first."

Looking at him happily leaving, Li Wanxue said: "Lu Fei, you don't worry about him going out nonsense ah, if this is spread out, other people will have ideas."

"He wouldn't tell if you shot him. I know the character of this guy." I said, "Different characters, like different diseases, must be adapted to the right condition before you can overcome them. Especially someone like Li Ding. He'll only laugh about it, not show it off."

Li wanxue smiled and held out her thumb.

I smiled bitterly. Li Ding was the only one who liked to think about herself. Good thing he's not a bad guy.

Over the next few days, Zombo and John began to organize the surrendered tribal Allies for military training. Li Ding had no public security to manage for the time being, so she went to help Cui Bin to burn bricks, build a gunpowder factory and a military camp.

Li Wanxue went to help Wu Wa do household statistics. Muka led his men to dig up all the sweet potatoes in the field. After the destruction of the war, the site above the arable land also left sweet potatoes. Everything else needs to be replanted. Fortunately, the village was not destroyed by the allied forces, and we were able to provide vegetables and some meat.

As for Zhang yutong, he concentrates on taking care of the baby at home with his wet nurse.

At the same time, I also gave a special contribution to the small black special treatment, let it live in a separate house, arranged for people to take care of its daily life.

I learned after zhang Yutong inquired, when the evacuation of Bugu Island, small black also followed. Then one day, he just disappeared. It was only when we got there that they learned that Hei had sneaked back to Cuckoo Island. Probably floated back by himself on a tree trunk.

One day, I was carrying bricks with the others when someone announced that dozens of boats were coming to the island of Cuckoo. They've secured the harbor.

Out of concern, I still rushed to the past, arrived at the port, were scared, where is dozens, clearly more than a hundred. Leaning on each other, from a distance, it looks like a moving island.

When Zomb and John came to me, Zomb pointed to the ships and said, "Captain, I wonder if it is not our ships that are coming to attack us."

"Surely not. Who's got the nerve to send people like that. But we still have to be careful. Jaya is the kingdom's military disguised to trade and spy on us."

"Shall I take a big boat and see?" Zombo suggested.

"No, wait till they come. Maybe we'll scare them off."

In order not to cause the other party to worry, I also zongbu with 200 people on the ship, hid in the cabin. John led more than three hundred men into the woods. I myself waited at the dock with dozens of people.

Half an hour later, when they were only a few hundred metres from the shore, they found their conjoined canoes joined together, a large ship measuring several hundred square metres. The boat is full of many things.

As we neared the sea, someone pointed at me and shouted, "Come out, everybody. It's the leader."

Everyone came out one by one and shouted at me. I was a little excited to see the man from brass Island. When the boat reached the shore, they made a dash for it.

The first runner fell to his knees in front of me, and the others followed suit.

I shouted to them to get up.

"Do you remember me, chief?" A well-dressed old man pointed to himself.

"Are you..."

"I am Shumu, king of your coastal kingdom, chief." He leaned aside and pointed to the seven or eight hundred people who had come with him. "These are the people of all the kingdoms and tribes. I bring them to you." He pointed to the boat. "We've brought all our belongings, and we're living on Cuckoo Island."

"Why?" It is not too late to come.

Shumu, the seaside king, was sad: "Chief, the allied forces have levied huge amounts of money on our island, and we have resisted several times but failed. Lately they've been rounding up our people, moving to their island. Copper has been mined pretty much. I took an opportunity to gather ships with those who were willing to come and escaped. You won't refuse us, chief?"

"They're running away?" It makes sense.

Shu Mu nodded: "The leader defeated them with smoke weapons, brass island people know, they know the leader will go to recapitate the brass island sooner or later, but they are not reconciled to defeat, began to carve up the island's population and supplies. The island doesn't look like anything now. People are catching and killing people everywhere."

"Then how did you escape?"
