The naval students who thought they would have to end their hardships had received even more cruel training after experiencing the long-distance running with coffins. For fighting, nowadays, gunfires are only the first thing to do, and fighting on boarding is also an indispensable training.

Unlike the training of the new army in Yunnan, because the naval students lacked courage, the weapons they practiced also turned into white wax poles with a sword length.

The guards of Lixiangyuan, the new army of the coastal defense camp, and the Yazi under Yang Meng were just monitoring the execution squads. If the two fought each other without doing their best, the outcome would be extremely miserable.

It is considered light to vomit blood with one stick. When you encounter a black-handed firing squad, it is normal to kill and traumatize it.

"If you don't want to be a human being, just be a ghost!"

Yang Meng, who was sitting upright on the general platform, gave this sentence. The reason why the execution squad was black is Yang Meng. As long as he found a prisoner who was unfavorable to supervise the battle, Yang Meng's punishment was simple, and he interrupted three white wax poles.

There are only one person in the firing squad, and no one can survive two immortals. Yang Meng was above, and even more ruthless in the firing squad, and the naval students in the training were completely fighting for life and death.

After more than ten days of long-distance running and five days of cruel training, only 12,000 naval students could stand on the school ground with their backs straight.

"San Master, in recent times, there have been too many people eliminating. With such cruel training, I am afraid I won't be able to recruit people!"

This is still not what Tan Yubin said, but what Ding Taichen said in helplessness. Three thousand disabled people were all made by Ding Taichen. I am afraid no one wants to enter the navy with such a military practice!

"The disabled and eliminated personnel have arranged their livelihoods for them. After all, they are all our people. Although they can't be a navy, they have seen the world after experiencing these things. In other aspects, these people may not be bad!

As for the issue of manpower, aren’t the fifteen merchant alliances still relocating their population? There are too many people everywhere who can’t eat. Not to mention tens of thousands, as long as you have enough food, hundreds of thousands of people will just wave and say something.

It is impossible to train the navy without merging hard. The navy is our only shortcoming. England, France, Portugal, Spain, and the Netherlands all have fleets nearby. They have accumulated a hundred years of experience in naval battles. If they don’t train a tiger and wolf army, how can they deal with the great powers at sea?

It is only a matter of one or two generations. This is the price that must be paid. It is gentle and soft. How can you fight in this troubled world? Without a cannibalistic heart, you can't fight against tigers and wolves!"

When serving as a soldier, many people can work hard to stutter. There is absolutely no shortage of manpower. Yang Meng only lacks a navy like a tiger or wolf. How many people can die now?

The Eight-Nation Alliance is what we should be afraid of. As long as they enter the Qing Dynasty, there will be no peace since then. This is something that Yang Meng has always been unable to figure out. When did the Eight-Nation Alliance come?

Look at this situation, the Qing Dynasty was still in a position, and Britain and France could not get together. We went to war with the Qing Dynasty alone. England and Geely did not have the confidence to know that it would be today, so we would have learned more.

Many things have to be done, and many times they can only be the evil one. Yang Meng also wants to talk to others in a friendly manner, but the world is so powerful!

After hearing the third master's words, Ding Taichen could only shake his head and sigh. The naval student in the Naval Academy was so miserable. He had patrolled the Naval Academy overnight. In the small dormitory, the miserable crying sounds were quite terrifying at night.

There were thirty or forty young men in their twenties in a dormitory, hugging their heads and crying together. After crying, they continued to fight for life and death the next day. Not to mention watching it, they felt miserable even if they thought about it.

Although every meal is served with big fish and meat, the training ground of the Naval Academy is definitely not a place to stay.

"I can't do it! Third Master, am I soft-hearted?"

"Soft-hearted? Your heart is not soft-hearted. Think about the clouds sold through your hands!

How many people can this object kill in the future? There are hundreds of millions! Think about those skinny parents, those children who are addicted to smoking when they are born, and what you do is to be struck by lightning!

Open the hearts of both of us, and the pit is cleaner than ours. You have already wade through this water. What kind of good people should you do? What should you do? Just look for an eye for an eye for an eye for a tooth. It’s simple to say, how many can you really do?”

After Yang Meng said this, Ding Taichen also looked dismal. He said that his third master was cruel, but look at himself, isn’t he the one who helped the evildoer?

"Uh... the source of this matter has to be discussed from the foreign devils. If they don't sell opium, how can they get the clouds? Third Master, do you think so?"

Yunyan is poisonous, and Ding Taichen also knew how many people he could kill. He could see the smoke ghosts in the Qing Dynasty, but when he thought of the huge corpse, he couldn't help but feel a little scared and could only find an excuse to comfort himself.

"Damn... this is called "standing a archway" as a watch, but this is good. The transaction is done almost the same, so we have to do this in the future!

How many merchant ships can you prepare in the past few days?”

Under the banner of justice and revenge, he did all the evil things and could only comfort himself. After he finished pulling the ball, Yang Meng turned the topic to the main business.

"Merchant ships? Dozens of ships are fine. As long as you pay a good price, you will have as much as you want."

The foreign merchants are also very smart now. They buy a few retired warships and sell them to the Yang family with goods. The old ships worth 20,000 to 30,000 taels of silver can be sold at a price of more than 100,000 yuan. As long as they keep a few ships that can carry sailors back, they will be even more smart. What's more, even the sailors and sailors are selling them to the Yang family. The pirates of Patrick and Yang Fuliang are getting stronger and stronger, and most of them are secretly funded by foreign merchants.

"It's time to get his dozens of old merchant ships to fight in the sea!"

"Third Master, I can't do it! Most of these naval students have never been on the ship. They were asked to go out to rob on merchant ships, but I'm afraid that even 30% of them will not come back!"

It is a bit outrageous to let the students go out to be pirates. Ding Taichen knew that whether the boat could drive away when it came to them was a question. Going to sea and robbery is a matter of being killed.

It is easy to get a merchant ship, but the students of the Naval Academy have not been easy to walk along the way! Reading, recognizing words, and learning martial arts. Although it has not been long, the Yang family spent a lot of money on the students. A student even had his salary and food and accommodation, and he spent hundreds of taels of silver a year. This is not the way to use people.

Merchant ships from various countries have no weapons on that ship? Letting a group of white dicks go to grab the merchant ship is not a solution.

"Who said they wanted to go out and rob? Just these bastards, who asked them to rob, don't know who robs who?

These merchant ships are just for them to practice sailing. First try it in Lingdingyang. After half a month, I will wander around the sea. When the wind and waves are rushing, when will the typhoon come, forget it!"

Riding the wind and waves depends on the weather. You can practice it for ordinary wind and waves, but forget about typhoons. This is a great threat to navigation in later generations. If you want to practice skills in a typhoon with a wooden sailboat worth dozens of meters, it is purely a search for death.

Training can be cruel, but it has to be limited. Yang Meng will not do anything to die. More than 20,000 naval students have eliminated more than 8,000 people. This is already a loss for Yang Meng. Although it is necessary, Yang Meng is also very painful. There are hundreds of people in a warship, and these two thousand people, after screening them layer by layer, how many can they finally board the warship?

Tan Yubin is not good at training troops. Yang Meng used to ignore it. Now that he has discovered it, he has to make up for this loophole. Yang Fuliang is responsible for training on land and Patrick is responsible for training at sea. While he is still in Guangzhou, Yang Meng wants the Naval Academy to come up with an effective training method.

Although ironclad ships are innovative warships, with different power systems and different naval tactics, the great powers used old-fashioned methods. The Yang family's navy had to learn old-fashioned tactics.

At the beginning of the equipment, Yang Meng was not sure that this iron-clad ship would have been able to survive the sailing warship. Naval battles were not the realm he was familiar with. Trying to be perfect is Yang Meng's idea.

"Oh... I was shocked!"

"Recently, you guys have been questioning the Third Master. It seems that the Third Master's words are not very effective?"

This is just a joke to Yang Meng, but to Ding Taichen, it feels a little murderous intent.

"Don't dare!"

"Hmph! With this courage, I have to question the Third Master, which is far from it! I have to say that the Third Master is not a perfect person, and there are inevitably some omissions. It is not a bad thing to find fault with the Third Master. Just like the idea of ​​blocking Lingdingyang, the Third Master was a little whimsical. It was not Patrick, and we have to mobilize many people again.

But no matter how questioned, my military orders must be implemented resolutely. If you dare to discount my military orders, you can kill them and not keep them!"

Earth relies on earth to become kings, and people rely on people to become kings. If you don’t want to listen to advice, what will Yang Meng set up a team of staff? His foundation is getting bigger and bigger, and there will be more and more mistakes in his own mistakes. If his subordinates dare not speak, that is a taboo.

"knew!"

After wiping the cold sweat on his head, Ding Taichen was still scared, and the Third Master's thoughts became increasingly elusive.

"Arranging the ship as soon as possible! I want to see, what have these students learned?"

Although sailing depends on experience, it is not a bad thing for sailing if there are too many things in your stomach. Yang Meng is still optimistic about this group of students in the Naval Academy.

In more than ten days, more than twenty merchant ships of all sizes and appearances have different sizes and appearances, but these ships have one common feature, that is, they are old.

"Lord, the first time I got on the boat was like these broken boats. I'm afraid the students will feel pressure!"

After staying in the Naval Academy for nearly a month, Patrick knew the authority of this lord. In Europe, even the king, queen, president, and prime minister did not have such great authority and appeal.

How could he not be able to train a strong army when fighting for life and death? After following Yang Meng for several years, Patrick has only now truly recognized this lord.

This also shows that Gelisi has a good vision. Tiffany finally relied on this Lord Yang, which is also the most glorious moment in his life. When he gets old, it is also a good way to talk about the interesting stories of this Lord.

"Where can't come from the motivation without pressure? Now we are short of people. Have you arranged your people? As long as you find good seedlings, you can choose your fleet and learn while working. These people have grown up and come back to teach other students. This is the fastest way."

"A wise idea!"

When Yang Meng and Patrick were talking, the students of the Shipbuilding School also boarded the ship one after another, which was similar to what Ding Taichen said. Most of the merchant ships stopped in place, with only three or five moving slowly.

"Let's find one to go up too!"

"Lord, you should follow the fleet behind you! Novice can easily overturn when driving a ship. Once you overturn, you will have no time to escape."

"I'm afraid of death, so I won't come out and make a fuss! Let's go! There's one ship over there that is almost there, so let's get on that one!"

Yang Meng took Patrick and his son to board a dilapidated merchant ship more than 30 meters. The students who were still in good order just now became busy and suddenly they scraped three or five times before the merchant ship slowly sailed out of the dock.

"It's very good! You can drive when you get on the boat for the first time. You are already very good, keep working hard!"

This was the first time Yang Meng praised the students. After a sudden promise, the ship gradually became stable.

"Look at you, how great it is! Believe that you can overcome all difficulties! I will accompany you on your first sailing. In the future, you will be like Zheng He of the previous dynasty, across the seven seas!"

After leaving the Pearl River Estuary and entering the Lingdingyang, the students on the boat performed their own duties in half a day. After more than a year of study, when the results were tested, the smoother the ship was, the more calm the expressions of these students were. It seems that this first time sailing was about to choose a calm time!

Around or later, more than 20 old merchant ships sailed out of the Pearl River Estuary. After two days and three nights of sailing at sea, no major mistakes were made, and no student died. This was undoubtedly a good thing for Yang Meng.

"Patrick, you shouldn't go out to sea lately. Let Daniel do things in Europe. During this period, our fleet has not participated in the robbery. We squeeze out as many people as possible to train the students of the navy. The time is up, let these student soldiers cut through the wind and waves on the sea!" (To be continued...)
