"Brother Lan is good at governing the army. The competition just now finally made the bastards under my command understand what it means to have someone outside of people and there are mountains outside of mountains!" Li Jingye raised his wine glass and smiled at a middle-aged navy general sitting next to him.

The middle-aged general was named Lan Wuwei. As his name was, he was a powerful general under Lu Qing back then. He led every time he fought. However, since Lu Qing surrendered to Li Yan, Lan Wuwei has become middle-aged. He is much more calm than when he was young. He also learned to use his brain when fighting, so he was promoted by Lu Qing. This time he was sent to the Nicobar Islands to serve as a captain. There are five main warships and hundreds of auxiliary warships on the entire archipelago, all of which are under his command.

"Where is it, Brother Li is young and promising, and his archery skills are like a god, which makes Lan very eye-opener!" Captain Lan said very humbly when he heard Li Jingye's words.

Before, Li Jingye and his friends came to the Nicobar Islands mainly to supplement some materials, especially crossbow arrows, gunpowder, etc., because when they eliminated the invading pirates, they also consumed a lot of materials. In order to keep the fleet's combat power strongest, they asked the garrison here to supplement materials, and they met this Lan Captain.

Captain Lan did not expect that this fleet, which looked like an ordinary merchant ship, was actually a fleet from Lion City. This surprised him and was also very excited. Therefore, he helped Li Jingye and the others replenish supplies without hesitation, and then held a banquet on the island to let the garrison on the island party party with the army brought by Li Jingye. After all, although the Nicobar Islands are a strategic location, it is really boring to station here in normal times. Now they can meet such a group of brothers in the navy. They naturally have to entertain them well.

Now they are on a beach on the Greater Nicobar Island, next to the navy's military port. However, in order to entertain Li Jingye and others, except for the rotating navy, most people ran to this beach to have fun with the soldiers from Lion City. It is also worth mentioning that Li Yan also mingled among the soldiers under Li Jingye, and is now beside a fire next to Li Jingye, and is bragging and drinking with a group of soldiers.

When two gangs of soldiers met, they were naturally indispensable in addition to drinking and eating meat. For example, competitions, archery, wrestling, etc., are often played by soldiers in the army. But to be honest, Captain Lan was a veteran and was also a very brave person when he was young, so he had extremely strict requirements for his subordinates and did not even care about his training.

This also led to his soldiers being very outstanding in all aspects. Although Li Jingye is the leader of the military academies of Chang'an and Taiwan, he is still young after all, so his soldiers are not opponents of each other, whether in martial arts or fighting. Finally, it was not until the archery event that Li Jingye couldn't help but take action himself, and ended up defeating Captain Lan and his soldiers with an absolute advantage. Finally, he regained some face.

"Brother Lan, you are located on the main transportation route between Ceylon and Malacca Straits, and there are so many pirates here. Do you have any pirates who dare to make your own ideas?" Li Jingye used a knife to cut a piece of browned meat from the roasted wild boar in front of him, and then asked while eating.

After hearing this, Lan Wuwei slapped his thigh and said, "Why aren't there? When we first arrived here, the pirates who killed thousands of swords came to harass each day. Later, General Lu organized a fleet to clear out several times. Although he failed to completely eliminate the pirates, they also seriously damaged their vitality, so the pirates dare not come easily now."

Lan Wuwei said this and suddenly thought of something. He immediately turned to Li Jingye and said, "Brother Li, your warships are all disguised as merchant ships, and it is not peaceful along the way. In addition, there is so much material consumption in your fleet, so you must have encountered pirates, right?"

Since he decided to come to the Nicobar Islands to replenish supplies, Li Jingye knew that he would definitely not be able to hide the pirates when he encountered pirates, so after hearing this, he smiled and told the pirates who were not open. As a result, Lan Wuwei laughed constantly after hearing this, and shouted "Happy" while laughing. It seemed that he had no good feelings for the pirates in the Tianzhu Sea.

Li Yan next to him joked with the soldiers he had just met while listening to the conversation between Li Jingye and Lan Wuwei. It was from the soldiers around him and Lan Wuwei that he learned about the suffering and joy of these soldiers stationed overseas. Of course, there were also some complaints and dissatisfactions in it, but this is also a common sense. After all, staying on such a closed island for many years will make an individual feel depressed. Fortunately, their resident period is almost over, and other navy will soon be replaced by them.

However, Li Yan felt that the island was not useless. For example, the Greater Nicobar Island where they were located lived, there were a considerable number of wild boars living on the island. In the past, natives from naked countries liked to hunt wild boars for food, and even used wild boars as sacrifices. However, now the wild boars on the island have become delicacies for the stationed troops to entertain guests. For example, on the fire in front of Li Yan, a golden boar was roasted.

Seeing that the wild boar was almost roasted, an older soldier stood up, picked up a knife and cut off the roasted pork outside, and then distributed it to everyone. Li Yan was a team member in the fleet, two levels higher than ordinary soldiers, so he was assigned a roasted front leg. Although the front leg had not as much meat as the hind legs, the meat was tenderer than the hind legs, so it was usually given to guests with a noble status.

Li Yan was not polite either. He took the front legs of the wooden plate, then picked up the seasoning bottle next to him, sprinkled some salt on it, and then began to chew in big mouthfuls. When the soldiers stationed on the island saw Li Yan's heroic performance, they naturally applauded them. When everyone ate a few bites of wild boar meat, they picked up the big bowl of liquor beside them to toast each other.

When everyone had enough food and drink, the alcohol also came up. I don’t know who started to start singing. Many people started to drink songs. But when they heard the familiar Chinese songs, they suddenly aroused the homesickness of many people, especially those brothers stationed on the island, tears flashed in their eyes. Thinking of their wives and parents at home, even if they were iron-clad men, they would feel sad.

But at this moment, something that surprised Li Yan appeared. Young native women appeared on the beach, and they were not wearing clothes. Most of them only used wide leaves to cover important parts of their bodies. In addition, they were very brave and even regarded this place as their own home. They crawled into the soldiers beside the fire in groups. Some of them boldly joked with the young soldiers, while others danced with the soldiers' singing. The seductive curves appeared and looked even more charming. Many soldiers looked straight.

Five girls came in from the fire where Li Yan and the others were. They first greeted the soldiers on the island in very stiff Chinese, then cut a piece of meat by themselves, and picked up the soldiers' wine bowls to taste the strong wine. Several brave women even snuggled up to the soldiers they liked. Their faces were flushed after drinking, and their eyes were extremely seductive. Some soldiers who could not control themselves had even begun to touch them.

Lan Wuwei and the soldiers on the island have long been accustomed to this situation. Even when they see the tender-faced soldiers who are teased by native girls, they will burst into laughter.

Seeing this situation, Li Yan couldn't help but touch a brother next to him with his shoulder. This man was the elderly soldier who had just given everyone a share of his flesh. It was reported that he was a senior, and he was one level lower than Li Yan's team. He could be said to be the lowest-level officer in the army.

"Brother, where did these native women come from? How could they be so... well~ enthusiastic?" Li Yan said at the end, and thought about it for a while before using the word "passion". However, if it was placed in the Tang Dynasty or Taiwan, the behavior of these native women could be called debauchery.

But after hearing this, the older Shi Chang smiled and then replied: "These native women are residents of the island. They used to establish a naked country, but they were destroyed by us. Now the people who are left behind are natives who are willing to accept our rule."

"Then these women?" Li Yan had already guessed Shi Chang's words, but he didn't understand why these women appeared here, and the soldiers flirted with each other, and even had a bit of seduction.

"Hehe, brother, don't be anxious!" said the young Changshi Chang with a very lewd smile. "In this archipelago, women's status is actually much higher than men, and they can even choose men freely. And as long as they like them, they can sleep with them. Our army drove here to destroy the original naked country. As a result, these women fell in love with the good guys in our army. After all, compared with those native men, we are much better than those shorter natives in both figure and appearance. So whenever we have the chance, they will come and get entangled. Tonight, many brothers will definitely be dragged into the woods by these women."

Li Yan was also amazed when he heard this. He also heard in later generations that there were some customs of matriarchal clans in the primitive tribes, but he didn't expect that he would meet one now.

However, before Li Yan finished sighing, the older Si Chang looked up and down, and then said with a pity: "Brother, don't blame the big brother for hitting you. Judging from your appearance and figure, you probably won't be attracted to the native woman tonight!"
