My pirate is too stable
16: Get promoted and make a fortune
Today's war ended with a complete victory for the navy. The navy's casualties and losses were far lower than expected. The most valuable thing is that among the thousands of native residents of Owen Island who were captured by the pirates, not a single one of them was alive. die.
Gordon, Jersey and other senior naval officials knew very well that the reason they were able to achieve such a major victory was all because of Chen Changsheng's indispensable role in it.
Chen Changsheng single-handedly turned the war situation around. Without him, it is really hard to say who would win the war. Even if the navy still wins in the end, it will definitely be a tragic victory.
At this moment, countless sailors cheered for Chang Sheng in unison. They were very excited and felt that they had witnessed the rise of a new naval star.
Although Chen Changsheng is just a new recruit, after this battle, his fame is destined to spread throughout the East China Sea, and even the tyrant Peng Ke was killed by him. This is such a terrifying and astonishing achievement that it is enough to scare some pirates.
After the cheers, Colonel Gordon immediately ordered everyone to clean up the battlefield, collect the dead bodies on the ground, treat the injured naval soldiers, and looted a large amount of money and jewelry from Penke's lair. Penke had been in the East China Sea for more than ten years, using various evil methods to accumulate The wealth that came down was so huge that it couldn't even fit in a cabin.
Naturally, this money does not belong to any individual and is confiscated.
In the end, Gordon left a team of navy to garrison Owen Island to appease the original residents who had regained their freedom. He himself led the rest of the navy back to Rogue Town.
That night, Rogge Town held a very grand banquet to celebrate the fruits of victory.
After experiencing a life-and-death battle, every navy feels lucky to have survived the disaster. Not always they can come back from the battlefield unscathed, so they drink and revel, sing and dance, vent their emotions, and push the fanatical atmosphere of the banquet to its climax.
"Captain Changsheng, you showed great power on the battlefield and killed the tyrant Punk. I admire you greatly when I see you. This glass of wine celebrates your bravery and unparalleled fighting power."
"Captain Changsheng is so heroic and courageous. In order to save the original residents of Owen Island, he did not hesitate to go into danger alone. He used himself as bait to attract thousands of pirates to pursue him madly. No one can compare with this courage. This glass of wine , I respect you too.”
At the banquet, Changsheng was completely transformed into a fragrant steamed bun. Groups of marines gathered around him and toasted him frequently, all wanting to become familiar with him in front of him.
Changsheng had never dealt with such a situation before, and he was a little at a loss for a while. After barely drinking a few glasses of wine, his head felt dizzy.
Not far away, the wavy-haired beauty Jersey walked up with long legs. When she saw Changsheng being surrounded by the crowd and overwhelmed, she felt inexplicably funny. She felt that Changsheng's majesty and majesty on the battlefield had faded at the banquet. There is a contrasting cuteness.
"cough"
Jersey coughed dryly, and the noisy navy in front of her automatically dispersed to make way for a way. It was obvious that Jersey was usually full of majesty in the navy.
"Chen Changsheng, Colonel Gordon asked you to come over." Jersey said, with ripples of color in her beautiful eyes. When she interviewed Changsheng at noon, she never expected that the other party would usher in a glorious moment so soon. I have to say, this man is so outstanding.
Changsheng immediately put down his wine glass and followed her to the seat where Gordon was sitting. The dozen or so people sitting around the table were all high-ranking generals of the branch, with the lowest rank being a colonel.
"Captain Changsheng, come on, sit down quickly"
A big-nosed general invited Chang Sheng to sit down with great enthusiasm, and poured wine and food for him. Chang Sheng's scalp was numb and he hesitated to speak, feeling that his chopsticks were not very clean.
"Looking at the young age of Captain Changsheng, no more than twenty years old at most, it's hard to believe that the tyrant Penk was defeated in your hands. You are indeed a young hero."
Another admiral lamented and toasted to Changsheng. The other admirals at the table followed suit and raised their glasses. Changsheng was probably the only one in the audience, besides Gordon, who could make so many admirals lower their posture to him. Toast people.
Changsheng complained endlessly in his heart. He actually didn't like drinking, but at this moment he could only hold his nose and obey. Faced with everyone's praises, he responded humbly, pretending to be "I am ordinary, I am ordinary, don't think I am great". A gesture of humility.
Changsheng is really helpless. With his steady temperament, he does not want to be the center of attention. Too strong is easy to break. The more public a person is, the more likely he is to encounter danger. He wishes he could be as low-key as possible, but given the current situation From the looks of it, it was obviously impossible for him to keep a low profile. It was obvious to all the navy bosses at the table that they favored him.
Colonel Gordon was sitting in the main seat. Listening to Chang Sheng's humbly response to everyone's words, he couldn't help but smile and nod, and secretly commented: "Chen Changsheng is indeed a talented person. He has achieved such huge military achievements and can still maintain his true nature and not be arrogant." He is impetuous and does not have the arrogance of a young man at all. It is so rare. He is destined to become an extremely good naval leader in the future."
"Chen Changsheng." Gordon suddenly spoke, and everyone immediately fell silent to listen to his speech.
"In view of your outstanding performance in the battle to encircle and suppress the Tyrant Pirates, several of our school-level officers unanimously decided to promote your military rank to lieutenant after discussion, and put you in charge of a navy of 500 people. Penke and Xiyu's The bounty has been counted and will be distributed to you after the banquet is over." Gordon smiled slightly, his eyes filled with relief and admiration.
Changsheng was stunned, but before he could react, the big-nosed general smiled and congratulated: "Changsheng, congratulations, you have been promoted from the fourth level of the corps commander company to a lieutenant, and you also have six thousand five hundred and five hundred shells." Profits can be obtained, this is promotion and wealth in the true sense, hahaha."
Several other generals followed suit and congratulated each other. Everyone at the banquet table, including Jersey, was very envious of Changsheng and felt that he was so lucky to be so valued by Gordon. Not only did his military rank rise, but also Such a huge sum of money can be obtained, which makes people envious and coveted.
Everyone knows that the immortal lieutenant is only a temporary transition. Based on Gordon's regard for him, his military rank will inevitably rise as fast as a rocket in the future, and he will soon be on the same level as them. superior.
"Colonel Gordon, isn't this good? After all, I just joined the navy at noon today. I have little qualifications and lack of experience, so I am not qualified for the important position of lieutenant." Changsheng said, politely refusing to be promoted.
In fact, Changsheng was speechless. He joined the navy at that time purely to avoid Penke's endless pursuit. Things have developed to this point, which has completely exceeded his expectations. He can receive the reward and wealth, but forget about being promoted. Well, after all, being a navy is too dangerous.
