Chapter 38 Naval Discussion 1
Paul Graiman and others were riding on the road to the church. The townspeople on the roadside saluted them one after another. After the declaration at the public trial, Port Fulan The residents finally had some heartfelt respect for their lord.
The street is a busy scene. Without the presence of pirates, traders no longer need to hide at home. They set up stalls on both sides of the road, shouting and selling their goods. Children are playing around, and men are People came and went in a hurry about their work, and women also gathered together in twos and threes, either discussing family issues or going back and forth to select goods in front of various stalls. The whole town was a prosperous scene.
Paul looked at all this and suddenly said: "We need to recruit sailors for the future navy!"
After hearing this, Bryce said in embarrassment: "There are people who are familiar with water properties. There are many, but there are very few who are proficient in water combat.”
"Time waits for no one. Everyone, there are many pirates on the sea now, threatening the Arda Territory at all times. Small groups of pirates are easy to deal with, but what if a large pirate group comes? Even if they can't defeat us on land, they will come ashore. What should I do if I just grab a handful and leave? I can't just send a soldier to guard the coast a few meters away, so we must take the initiative to clear out pirates of all sizes in the northwest bay, so that I can sleep peacefully." >
Bryce: "What the Earl said makes sense."
"There is also the great pirate Edward. Although I don't know what he went to do, he may come back one day. We must Be prepared in advance. If we kill his horse, he will definitely retaliate against us. I can't abandon Fulangang and run away. Otherwise, what I said at the public trial will not be like a slap in the face."
Cecil: "Your Majesty, the count is very far-sighted!"
Paul looked troubled: "Although I know what you are telling the truth, in public places, this kind of behavior will be mistaken for horse racing." It’s better to say less nonsense, it will make people feel embarrassed, and it’s better to give more constructive opinions.”
Everyone heard a black line.
"Ahem!" Bryce cleared his throat awkwardly and said, "My Lord Earl, I can recommend a naval officer for you. I wonder if you would like to hear it?"
< br>"Oh? Tell me."
"Captain Austin Kelly of the 6th Company of the 2nd Battalion was born in a family of ship merchants. He has followed his elders to make a living at sea since he was a child. He is used to seeing strong winds and waves. I think it is very... A suitable young man from the navy."
Paul groped his chin and thought for a while: "Well, let him come to me when we get back. Now we have to catch up. Is there anyone else?" >
Bryce scratched the back of his head: "Uh... I just remembered this one for the moment."
As they talked, they arrived near the door of the church, and saw a group of people surrounding it. On the steps was Mo Father Leeson stood there dancing and talking loudly.
Everyone listened attentively, and the priest’s voice came from a distance.
“After I finished praying, I slowly opened my eyes, and there was a fierce-looking man standing in front of me. He was one of Shark’s men. Because I refused to submit to him, he sent an executioner to kill me. ”
“Just when I thought I was going to heaven to serve the Almighty Lord, there was a loud noise. ”
"I took a closer look and saw that there was a big hole in the villain's chest. He was struggling and twisting, with endless fear in his eyes as he ended his life of depravity and sin."
The townspeople surrounding him remained silent. Ring, quietly listening to Morrison describe the scene at that time.
"I looked up and saw a figure appearing at the door. The figure was not tall, but it was extremely reassuring. A ray of golden sunshine shone on him, so holy and so glorious. I I thought to myself, is this an angel sent by the Almighty Lord to save me? "
"Ah, the all-knowing and all-powerful Lord of Light, you have not abandoned your most devout servant after all."
Morrison's narration was full of emotion and the audience was mesmerized.
"Yes, this angel is Lord Paul Grayman. Lord Paul Grayman is the angel sent by the Lord of Light to save me. He is also the angel sent by the Lord of Light to save you, and even more so, the angel who saves all living beings in the world. ”
“He holds the thunder rod given to him by the Lord, and can kill the devil’s believers with just one blow. He distributes the great power given to him by God to the warriors who follow him, and drives them away with a fearless spirit. He killed the pirates entrenched in Port Fulan."
"A majestic voice sounded in my mind, 'Follow him and assist him'. I knew that this was the oracle given to me by the Lord of Light. "
"Oh!" The audience exclaimed. The common people at the bottom of this era are still very superstitious. Morrison made the sign of the cross on his chest, closed his eyes piously and prayed: "Praise the Almighty Lord!"
The audience followed suit and said: "Praise the Almighty Lord!"
Morrison: "We will always follow your teachings."
Audience: "We will always follow your teachings."
>
Morrison: "Praise to the great Paul Graeman."
Audience: "Praise to the great Paul Graeman."
Morrison: "We will always follow in his footsteps."
Audience: "We will always follow in his footsteps."
......
Bryce said with emotion: "It's a pity that this priest doesn't want to be a theater actor."
Cecil looked disdainful: "He only knows how to flatter and flatter you." He completely forgot that he was also filming the Earl's horse just now. Shit.
This guy is still very wise. He can understand the superior spirit so quickly. No wonder he can live peacefully in the pirate den until now.
To be honest, Paul was a little embarrassed when he saw the drama at the door of the church. It simply gave people goosebumps all over his body. But Morrison is very satisfied. Who let the people of this era just do this?
"Okay, let's go in from the back and don't disturb Mr. Morrison's performance." He chuckled and led everyone towards the back door of the church.
......
In the afternoon, the anxious Captain Austin came to the Earl's temporary office.
He stood up with a "pop", straightened his body and raised his hand in salute, "Report, Austin Kelly, commander of the 6th Company of the 2nd Battalion, is reporting to you."
Paul looked Austin up and down and pointed. The chair in front of the table, "Sit down and talk, Captain."
"Yes, Lord Earl."
After Captain Austin sat down, Paul asked: "Captain, do you know why I'm looking for Are you coming?"
Captain Austin blinked, "Uh... are you going to promote me?"
Depend on! This guy is really not polite at all. Why didn't he follow the usual routine? He was really defeated.
He had to say: "You really guessed it right, Captain Austin Kelly, I called you here just to promote your position."
"Huh? No way?"< br>
Captain Austin looked incredulous. Did he really guess it right?
