After arriving in Quanzhou, Ling Tianfang, on behalf of His Royal Highness the King of Qin and the Military Affairs Bureau, issued an order to him to immediately form a Great Oriental Navy, and officially handed over the Yuhang Military Port, the Zhuangyuanao Military Port, the Quanzhou Military Port and the Huludao Military Port to him.

Fortunately, the dozen or so broken ships in the Quanzhou military port gave him some comfort, and with a slight glance at his eyes, he also knew that although the dozen or so warships were dilapidated, it was because of poor maintenance, not because they were too old, and they only needed to be repaired to have combat effectiveness, but the morale of the sailors was not optimistic, I don't know if it was due to the fact that they had not received supplies and salaries for a long time or something else, but Lei Cangpu was confident that they would regain their morale, as long as there were skilled naval soldiers and officers, everything would be much easier。
Although the military port is a little deserted, it is enough to see from the state of the military port facilities and ship maintenance that the management personnel of this small fleet and the military port have a considerable level, and they can still maintain this state for so long after they have actually left the imperial navy and no one cares, which cannot but make people feel admired.
The faces of the officers and sailors of the Imperial Navy lined up on the dock of the Huludao Military Port made Lei Cangpu surprised again, this surprise came from the four people, double surprise, so that he couldn't help but whisper "Huh" when he had always been known for his composure, but this sound did not escape Ling Tianfang's ears.
After some greetings, Ling Tianfang and Lei Cangpu signaled the attachés who came with them to start familiarizing themselves with and understanding the actual situation of the former Imperial Navy officers and soldiers who stayed in the Huludao Military Port, but the two quietly stayed on the dock of the military port and talked alone, "Cangpu, did you think something was wrong?"
"Well, I didn't expect the Huludao Military Port to be so well maintained, and it doesn't need to be put into use at all, it seems that the officer in charge of managing this military port base is a talent. I have quietly inquired, it turns out that the person in charge of the management of this Huludao military port base is the official of the original Yuhang military port base, Zuo Shichang, the commander of the imperial naval army, the name of this guy I have heard of when I was in the Changfeng meeting, this is not only a master of sailing and fighting at sea, it seems that he is also an all-rounder who manages the military port, I didn't expect to fall into this Huludao military port, but it was rumored that he would take over as the commander of the Third Fleet of the Imperial Navy, but I heard that he and the emperor [***] The relationship between the top management of the General Administration of Affairs is not very good, and it seems that they are also affected by this. We have picked a piece of treasure this time, this guy's ability is not in vain, the reconstruction of this Great Eastern Ocean Naval Fleet is only afraid that it will fall on the people I mentioned, including this person, if we can persuade these people to surrender and devote themselves to serving the Western Xinjiang, I am afraid that the formation of the Great Oriental Fleet will have hope. Seeing that Ling Tianfang was listening attentively, Lei Cangpu also deliberately showed off his knowledge.
"Oh, tell me about it. Ling Tianfang was really interested when he heard it, the two of them had discussed the rebuilding of the Great Eastern Ocean Fleet in Quanzhou, and they felt that it was too difficult, although the Great South Ocean Fleet had taken a slight shape, but even if the entire Great South Ocean Fleet was moved here, it still could not bear the heavy responsibility expected by His Royal Highness King Qin, which also made Ling Lei and the others bitter. Now that Lei Cangpu is saying this, there must be some real things in between.
"And the commander of this small fleet is also an amazing figure, that is, the guy we just greeted, with a cold face and not very caring about people, hehe, Sa Zhenhai, who was once a famous celebrity of the Imperial Navy, was originally the commander of any sub-fleet under the Second Fleet of the Imperial Navy, stationed in the port of Vladivostok in Kambataka, and drove the ronin who harassed Kamchatka to run around like rabbits. Lei Cangpu recalled with some emotion the old things many years ago.
"What year was it then, I don't remember clearly, just because the small fleet stationed in Vladivostok Harbor also had a hard encounter with the regular fleet of Japanese people twice as large as him, and he was stunned that he did not fall behind, that is, after that naval battle, he made a prestige, whether it was a Japanese or a pirate, he retreated three points when he saw him, hehe, don't hide it, the ship of our Changfeng Club also suffered the loss of his small fleet, but his jurisdiction is too small, and others can live like him. Later, when the Imperial Navy and the Milan Navy conducted joint exercises, this Sa Zhenhai was in the limelight again, overwhelming the others, and the fleet he led performed the most vigorously, and even the commander of the Milan Navy was full of praise for the performance of his fleet, hoping that he could visit the Milan Naval Academy and teach the cadets a lesson. However, he can only wander around in the position of commander of the detachment under the Second Fleet, no matter how good his performance is, the Imperial Navy does not seem to have the intention of promoting him, hehe, probably because the relationship is not so good. There are many unfinished meanings in Lei Cangpu's words.
"This is the malaise of the imperial officialdom, His Royal Highness the King of Qin has realized it in this regard, but it is necessary to be clear that the impact of these criticisms cannot be done in a day or two, I hope that His Royal Highness the King of Qin can come up with an effective means to solve these problems. Ling Tianfang echoed lightly, and pulled the topic back: "Well, Sa Zhenhai, I have the momentum of being the commander of the fleet, but I have to see if others are willing to do it." Is there any, Cangpu?"
"There is another person, it seems to be the captain of a warship, right? It's called Huo Yunfeng, hehe, this guy has fought with me with real swords and guns, otherwise I wouldn't recognize him at a glance, this guy is quite good at naval warfare, in that battle, our Changfeng Society's ship struggled to get out of the encirclement and suppression fleet led by him, even then, our Changfeng Society also paid the loss of two warships and the sacrifice of more than a hundred brothers, and the Imperial Navy still has some talents, but they can't use it well. Probably recalling the tragic scene at that time, Lei Cangpu's eyes suddenly became confused, and it took a while to recover.
"Huo Yunfeng, hmm, I made a note of it, it seems that this small Huludao detachment turned out to be a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, if you don't go through this experience yourself, how can you find out that there is such a talent hidden among these people? By the way, how do you know about the situation of these people?" Suddenly thinking of this question, Ling Tianfang asked casually.
"Lord Ling, do you really think that I have been sitting in the study for so many years? Our Changfeng will crisscross the Great East Ocean, and which navy has never fought with it, whether it is the Imperial Navy, the original Doton Navy, the Japanese fleet, the ronin Youkou, and the Triple Alliance fleet, this wind comes and goes, and that battle is not fought hard? Not only do they have to participate in the battle in person, but they also have to worry a little bit about the changes in the naval forces of all sides, such as the recent activities of the Imperial Navy, how many new ships have been added to the Japanese Navy, and the Milan Navy is doing routine exercises. Lei Cangpu smacked his mouth and talked eloquently.
"Well, it's not easy to make a living, this is the survival pressure that every door has to face. Ling Tianfang nodded, "Is there anything else you need to add?"
"By the way, there is another person, I am a little surprised, how can he appear in the Imperial Navy, this person is very impressive, so that after twenty years I can still have an impression, he should be a Japanese talent, how can he appear in the Imperial Navy, I thought my eyes were dazzling, but I quietly looked at that guy carefully from the side, there should be no mistake, the person in my impression, he should be a spy of the Japanese people!" Lei Cangpu's voice was very low, but his tone was suddenly cold.
"Really, Cangpu, are you not mistaken?" Ling Tianfang's whole body was also shocked, and his face also changed greatly, he didn't expect that even the Imperial Naval Army had been infiltrated by the Japanese people, no wonder the Imperial Water Army would be ambushed by the Japanese fleet accurately, and no wonder the coastal islands would fall into the hands of the Japanese people, the Japanese people were painstaking and lonely in these aspects, and the hard work was not deep. Then he asked Wang Zongxi and Bai Yuanzhong to re-recruit the personnel of the Imperial Navy to serve as members, but the security department had to intervene, otherwise the newly built Great Oriental Navy fleet would not have become a target for the Japanese people.
"That's right, this is such an important thing, not to mention that when that guy was looting in Dengzhou, I was already more than ten years old, and I remember it very clearly, and his somewhat strange language is very deep in my impression, and those eyes can be recalled even if I die. Lei Cangpu's words were very calm, and he couldn't hear any emotional fluctuations at all. When the Japanese invaded Dengzhou, he was still a weak boy, although he hid behind the board of the boat and did not look at the other party head-on, but the other party's cold and vicious gaze was deeply imprinted in his heart, and a slightly sunken bone node on the bridge of the nose with a slight eagle hook was even more special, which made Lei Cangpu unforgettable for the rest of his life.
"Huh, it seems that everything we do is not so smooth and peaceful, hehe, interesting, there are challenges, so there is a taste, it seems that the Japanese people have been consciously implementing their infiltration plan for a long time, and they are no different from us Tang people, I don't know how many hidden nails they lurk in this Jiangnan?" Ling Tianfang let out a slight sigh of relief, and said bitterly.
