Chapter 64 Promotion to Captain
"Xiao Su, answer me honestly, has a boat spirit appeared?"
In the early morning, Cornelia saw the brand new sailboat, and grabbed Su Yi and asked stupidly.
Su Yi laughed and fooled: "Yes, I saw it when I got up in the morning, and it was still smiling at me."
"Is there such a thing? Hmph~" The girl felt suspicious now.
Su Yi looked sloppy, and said instead: "Girl, don't worry about the details, come and help me push the boat into the sea. We're leaving!"
"it is good."
Immediately, Cornelia did not bother about the boat, in fact she just asked casually.
The two worked together to push the sailing boat into the sea, then returned to the island, collected abundant fruits, and finally left on the ship.
The three most important points of sea voyage are direction, food and luck.
The first two are easy to understand. As for the third point, it depends on God's mood.
If there is a strong storm, let alone a sailing ship, even a future ironclad ship may be destroyed.
Fortunately, Su Yi died, and with the help of God Prison, he easily avoided the natural disaster.
The voyage went smoothly until noon the next day when they encountered a warship in the vast sea.
"Girl, which army is that? Is it the Sixteenth Division?" Su Yi stood at the bow of the ship and looked out.
Cornelia held the binoculars for a long time before saying, "The number is 06-1-1, and it is Lieutenant General Kuzan's Sixth Division."
"Is it Kuzan? Strange, what is a single fifth-tier cruiser doing in this kind of place? Is it performing any mission?"
Thinking of this, Su Yi took out two flags and waved semaphore at the warship.
This is the basics that every Naval Academy grad knows.
The semaphore Su Yi played had only one meaning, sos calling for help.
"Girl, is it really okay for you to dress like this?" While waving a sign, Su Yi said to the girl beside him: "You go to the cabin first, and I will let them send a set of clothes later."
Cornelia was wearing a very bold dress, a short skirt made of tree branches and leaves and a small bodice. She was used to being alone with Su Yi, but suddenly she wanted to see outsiders, which made her blush and hurried back in the cabin.
As for Su Yi, he was also like a savage, with only a few leaves covering the important parts, but he didn't have such a sense of shame, and he waved his hands and flags at the warship openly.
"Vice Admiral Mole, about 3,500 meters to the southwest, there is a ship waving a semaphore at us." A watchman ran to report to Mole.
"Semaphore? What do you mean?" Mole, who was frowning, regained his spirits.
"They sent out a distress call."
"Are you sure? What kind of flag are they flying, are they merchant ships, civilian ships, or disguised pirate ships?"
Mole asked in confirmation, he had to be careful, since he was on a search and rescue mission, he had encountered more than one incident where a pirate ship was disguised.
"That ship didn't have any flags, but the semaphore they played was not the civilian one, but our regular navy."
"What?" Mole's eyes widened all of a sudden, he stood up abruptly, and quickly ordered, "Turn around now, get closer to them, and at the same time play a semaphore, telling them to stay where they are!"
"yes!"
The warship quickly turned around and sailed towards Su Yi's ship.
At the same time, Su Yi also saw the semaphore played by the other party, and in order to eliminate unnecessary troubles, he decisively followed suit.
Not long after, the two ships docked.
Lieutenant General Mole came to the deck in person, confirmed Su Yi's appearance, and couldn't help being surprised.
"Second Lieutenant Su Yi, it's really you!"
Su Yi knew that the other party was surprised by his clothes, but who cares, you can watch it as you like, anyway, he has a lot of capital.
Immediately, he gave a military salute with a serious face.
"Second Lieutenant Su Yi of the Navy Headquarters, report to Vice Admiral Mole!"
After a brief surprise, Mole showed surprise, "Great, you're fine. Come, build a bridge, and let Second Lieutenant Su Yi board the ship."
He had no choice but to be happy. It had been a month and a half since he carried out the mission, but he had found many missing soldiers, but Su Yi hadn't heard from him for a long time. He even suspected that Su Yi might have been buried in the sea.
But the problem is that the headquarters has a death order, and if Su Yi is not found, he will not even think about going back. Today, I finally met Mole, and the nerves that had been tense for a long time finally eased down.
Not long after, Su Yi stepped on the wooden bridge and walked to the warship.
"By the way, Second Lieutenant, Lieutenant Cornelia should have been with you when you disappeared. Where are her people now?" Mole asked again as soon as he boarded the boat.
"This... cough, Lieutenant General, please give me a suit of clothes, girl... no, Lieutenant Cornelia is on board, she is fine." Su Yi said sternly.
When Mole heard this, he didn't think too much, and asked someone to get a set of clothes directly.
Soon, Cornelia, wearing a new military uniform and a single ponytail, stepped onto the warship.
After taking the two of them to the captain's room, Mole reported the news to the Navy Headquarters.
After a while, he hung up the phone.
"Second Lieutenant Su Yi... No, now it is Captain Su Yi and Lieutenant Cornelia. The headquarters is very happy that you can come back alive. The Warring States General asked me to escort you back to Marinford immediately and safely!"
Hearing this, the two looked at each other.
Cornelia nodded, her face had returned to the coolness she had when facing outsiders
with seriousness.
"Thank you Lieutenant General."
"Haha, this is just a mission."
Su Yi was silent for a while, and asked: "Lieutenant General, you are a high-ranking captain, what's going on?"
"This is for your outstanding performance in the last mission. The Supreme Commander of the Navy, Marshal Kong, decided to award you the rank of captain. This was ordered by the marshal himself. If you die unfortunately, you will be awarded the rank of major general."
After explaining casually, Mole turned to ask curiously: "Captain, our search and rescue team has not found any news for a whole month and a half. What happened to you and where are you?"
"Well..." Su Yi hesitated for a while, and began to fool around casually.
Not to mention this insignificant matter, the warship sailed towards the entrance of the new world, escorting the two back to Marinford.
After two weeks, we finally arrived at our destination.
Su Yi was a little surprised when he got off the boat.
He didn't expect that Zhan Guo would come to pick him up in person!
This kind of treatment is not something that can be obtained by performing well in the war. ..
