in the waters of the South Seas.

Magatama looked at the middle-aged man sitting on the main battleship of the Qi State and said, "General, East India, agree not to interfere in our war!" ”

This middle-aged man was Zhou Baotong, the commander-in-chief of the navy of Qi State, and he looked at Gou Yu, "You have worked hard!" ”

"To serve the Qi country, the minister will definitely go to the soup and the fire, and he will not give up!" Hook Yu looked at Zhou Baotong and said.

Gou Yu is Zhou Baotong's advisor, but he is not a pirate, he comes from a famous family, he entered the Jixia School Palace to study for two years, and was appreciated by the uncle Sun Tong of the Jixia School Palace for his intelligence.

Later, Shusun Tong was recommended to join the army as a strategist, and Shusun Tong gave Magatama a high evaluation, that is, it was very likely to become a person in Xiangguo.

Of course, Shusun Tong gave him such a high evaluation, it is nothing more than that Gouyu is very young, only in his twenties, and his career is still very long, but he is young, but he exudes intelligence, and Shusun Tong thinks that Hook Jade must have something to do.

Shusun Tong hopes that Magatama can enter the samurai legion as a strategist, but the people in the samurai legion are all a group of iron-blooded men, even if they are wise generals, they need a certain amount of strength to be able to.

Later, after Qi Xiaobai saw Gouyu's letter of recommendation, he thought that the Qi Navy lacked a strategist, so he asked Gouyu to help Zhou Baotong go.

After Hook Yu came to Zhou Baotong's account, he basically couldn't show his talent, Hook Jade's strategy plus vertical and horizontal lobbying skills, even if he went to this world, Hook Jade could also claim to be a national soldier.

After staying in the navy for a while, Magatama didn't want to stay here any longer, and who in the entire Qi country didn't know that the navy was the most unpromising department? Magatama thinks so, too.

However, since he is here in the navy, how easy is it for him to leave?

Of course, the people of Qi do not value the navy, but Qi Xiaobai attaches great importance to the navy, if it is not for the need to compete for hegemony and war with those princes of the empire, Qi Xiaobai will inevitably vigorously develop the navy.

Qi Xiaobai believed that the greatest threat to Qi did not come from the princes, but from the sea.

Qi Xiaobai has read the history books of the world, and knows that there are many maritime powers in this world, and Qi Xiaobai has seen a lot of blonde and blue-eyed aliens, as well as those advanced artillery, muskets and so on.

It's just that forced by internal hegemony, Qi Xiaobai is not able to develop the navy at all, after all, the enemy at sea is the future, and the princes are the immediate enemy.

Of course, Qi Xiaobai read the history books and knew that there were maritime powers that traveled around the world in this world, but Qi Xiaobai didn't know why these powers weren't traveling around.

As everyone knows, these powerful countries are caught in the middle of a struggle, and the invincible Zhou Empire is caught in an internal struggle for hegemony, and those maritime overlords, they are facing the threat of neighboring continents, and they are powerless to inquire about overseas territories.

Because Shusun Tong gave Magatama a great evaluation, Qi Xiaobai arranged Magatama into the navy, he believed that the navy would be of great use in the future, so he arranged this young talent in the navy for the sake of the future.

However, Magatama felt that he was talented and couldn't fight you, he was buried, although his official rank and status were very high, but he didn't have any opportunity to show his talent, and his opponent was a pirate except for pirates.

And in the face of those pirates, there is no need for any conspiracy at all, just go with the army and crush it by force.

This made him feel that the hero was useless, but fortunately, Qi Xiaobai gave him a high status.

He was given the rank of lieutenant general, and at the same time gave the post of naval staff officer of Qi State, which was second only to Zhou Baotong in the navy.

"Magatama, you've been here in our navy for a long time, so let's not talk about this kind of beautiful thing!" Zhou Baotong looked at Magatama and said.

For Gouyu, Zhou Baotong didn't like it very much, because this person did not have a good relationship with his navy, although his status was the second person in the navy, but everyone didn't buy his account, because Gouyu was too dragged.

Before the navy did not have Magata, Zhou Baotong was responsible for recruitment, and most of the fishermen recruited, or pirates who surrendered, so the navy had a banditry.

Although his veteran subordinates have basically become middle-level cadres or something in this navy, the newcomers are also recruited by Zhou Baotong from the pirate captives.

He asked for someone who was proficient in water arts, the navy was fighting in the sea, no matter what your combat effectiveness was, the most basic requirement was to know the water arts, if you didn't know the water arts, if you went to sea, you didn't need the enemy to shoot, and you would be buried in the sea.

However, after Gouyu arrived, he recruited a group of soldiers for Zhou Baotong, this group of soldiers have been trained by Gouyu, very disciplined, and the acquired Gouyu also cultivated their water skills, although the effect is not very ideal, but the spiritual head is better than that recruited by Zhou Baotong.

Of course, the navy recruited by Magatama only accounts for a small proportion of the navy, mainly because the navy has little military spending and no money at all, so it supports Magatama to train soldiers.

It costs money to train recruits, and recruits can't be used directly, so it takes time to hone before they can be used.

Although Zhou Baotong recruited it, his spirit is not very good, but he can use it immediately.

Because Zhou Baotong was born as a pirate, he was already a bandit, so the soldiers he brought with him knew him a little.

However, Zhou Baotong became a general after all, and he only gave his subordinates military discipline one point, that is, he could not betray his brother, and he could not fear death and not betray the Qi country.

After the arrival of Goyu, Zhou Baotong added a lot of discipline and various rules and regulations.

Gou Yu glanced at Zhou Baotong and didn't speak, Zhou Baotong stood up: "Gou Yu, the person here, the one who is not loyal to the Qi State and is willing to go to the soup for the Qi State?" ”

"If you say this kind of thing, it will make everyone feel that you are the only one who is loyal!" Zhou Baotong looked at Magatama and said.

Gou Yu nodded, for Zhou Baotong, Gou Yu actually looked down on him in his heart, because he was born in the aristocracy and Zhou Baotong was born as a bandit, and the two of them were of different classes.

However, he is under the banner of Zhou Baotong, and he can only surrender: "Hook Yu this battle, you will fight with me!" ”

Gou Yu was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Zhou Baotong: "Although I am a general, I am just a strategist, I go to the battlefield, is this ......?"

"Magatama, because you think you're a general, don't you even dare to go to the battlefield?"

"Don't worry, you are by my side, I protect you, I am dead, and I will not let you die!" Zhou Baotong looked at Magatama and said.

Because Gou Yu came to Zhou Baotong's banner, although he served as a strategist, but because he did not play any role, in Zhou Baotong's eyes, Gou Yu was a son who came here to practice, and he stayed for a while and left.

Originally, Zhou Baotong planned to send a private soldier to the East Indies, but Gou Yu strongly recommended himself, and Zhou Baotong had to agree.
