The arrangement of sailors, the loading of foster care, the deployment of cargo, the formation of formations, and especially the arrangement of the command staff took me about a week to complete, and the whole team was once again in a state of preparation.

And just then, we received an urgent distress letter from Woodin!

Before, I wondered how I didn't have a shadow of Woodin after I came to Africa. Rodriguez explained that Wooding had rushed back to the Indian Ocean before I arrived, and that it was said that there were some new situations in the area that he needed to go back and deal with it himself.

What's new? What can happen to the Indian Ocean? It's nothing more than a cliché about the two heroes competing for hegemony. Could it be that a new force is emerging? It stands to reason that with Wooding's strength and deep-rootedness, it is difficult for ordinary emerging forces not to be able to do so!

After receiving his distress letter, the truth was revealed!

With the support of the Mughal Empire, the Kaplan Chamber of Commerce, based in Kalihet, began to collude with the overseas powers of the Spaniards in order to dominate the Indian Ocean, and at the same time recruited pirate teams from the Indian Ocean to attack the Woodin Chamber of Commerce based in Basra!

Woodin gathered a large number of believers and began to fight back with all his might, but the opponent's forces were too large, and he parried very hard.

Especially the pirate team in the Indian Ocean, these guys are like locusts, sweeping everywhere there is no grass, there is no bottom line! Such a terrorist act completely broke the pattern of general business competition and chamber of commerce hegemony, and caused great panic in the territory of the Wooding Chamber of Commerce!

The good-faced Wooding originally wanted to solve this problem by himself, but judging from the current situation, he was indeed a little helpless, so he had to turn on the teammate summoning mode, and I really understood a million people.

When I first arrived, I was in crisis, and it was Woodin who helped me get out and regain my ability to attack.

Now that he is asking me for help, it is the best time for me to give back, and I have absolutely no reason or plan to ignore it!

If the allies are in trouble, I will naturally immediately send troops to the Indian Ocean!

The mighty fleet began to pull out, and I personally led the main fleet to the front, and the left and right flanks were naturally Adicon's and unapologetic escort fleets, and behind were the new fleets commanded by Hua Mei.

These new ships are still in the run-in period, and they are more responsible for transportation and logistical replenishment. What's more, the lack of commanders made me a little stretched, and I had to look for suitable candidates among the previous trainee navigators and the newly recruited navigators.

Last time I was recruiting, I selected two excellent captains from the crowd - Frank Lampard and Joe Cole, and put them on board as second officers for a while, and from all observations and reactions, their competence, mental level and especially loyalty have fully met the requirements of being a captain.

So, before I set out, I promoted the two of them to Hua Mei's lieutenants, each in charge of a fleet of five ships, and followed them as a flank corps.

In addition, there were also surprises in the recruitment in Sofala, two people came into my eyes and were being observed by me.

One is called Al-Visas, International Algeria, a complete devil-muscled man! Simple-minded and straightforward, but extremely heroic, he once served in the Italian Overseas Fleet as an adjutant. It was the commander of the convoy that came to life.

Another named Angelo Puccini, a Greek, beautiful man with a flower type, left the Greek Navy in search of his missing sister and traveled the world. But in the end, he lost to reality, after all, the world is so big, and the wallet is so small, so in order to explore more places in the world where my sister may exist, he resolutely joined my fleet.

I conducted a rigorous review and examination of the two of them, and finally determined that they were trustworthy to a certain extent, and as I had previously envisioned, Al would be in command of the Guards, and Angelo would be the vanguard officer of the Outpost Fleet—to be in command without regrets.

Of course, complete and complete trust is not possible for the time being, but I am capable enough to solve this problem - after all, Mo's organization is very professional, and I am not worried about what these new commanders can set off.

After driving through Mozambique, we continued north, the weather began to get hotter and hotter, and we also deeply felt the enthusiasm of the sea on the sea!

As soon as I arrived in the Gulf of Aden, I heard the rumbling sound of artillery in the distance!

It's two teams of ships on the surface of the sea that are fighting fiercely! The lookout sent back the message.

One of the weaker ones is none other than our ally, Woodin. Looking at the equipment of his ships, it should not be the main fleet, but the logistics supply fleet.

The enemy fleet has no flag, but a skull flag painted in white on a black background flutters at the top of the mast!

It's a pirate! There have long been rumors that the Kaplan Chamber of Commerce colluded with the Spaniards and pirates to unite against the Woodin Chamber of Commerce, and it seems that this is true.

As far as I know, the Indian Ocean is the most pirate-ridden area of the Seven Seas, and there is no one!

There are hundreds of pirate fleets, and I don't know which pirates Kaplan is uniting with - or rather, it doesn't matter who it is, I don't have any reason to let go of the pirates!

Whether it's out of morality, strength, or thought.

The navigators of the Wooding Chamber of Commerce had clearly seen our fleet approaching from afar, and the familiar flag had lifted their spirits; And the pirates obviously don't know the depth of the water, and they are still chasing the supply fleet of the Woodin Chamber of Commerce in our direction!

After estimating the strength of the other party, I didn't plan to let the main fleet attack, and I still maintained the cruiser lineup and moved forward.

My aim was to test the newly promoted navigators, who were in different positions, but they were all in a relatively peripheral position, and actual combat was the best test.

The first to move, and the most formal, was the Angelo fleet I expected, and several of his ships took advantage of the southwest wind to quickly form a T-shaped battle line and open their guns at the pirates!

Al's fleet rushed forward without hesitation, just like his own character, the fighter, no need to explain, no need to argue!

Frank Lampard and Joe Cole are from serious backgrounds – they are moving towards Angelo's fleet from the flanks, forming a second echelon of battle lines with their relatively fragile hulls, which is the best way to preserve themselves and destroy the enemy.

Little by little, the distance was getting closer, and just as the distance between the two fleets was shortened to one and a half nautical miles, Angelo opened fire without hesitation!

The guns of several ships began to cover the enemy ships, scattering a row of bitter fruits that were hard to swallow in front of the pirates who admired white-knuckle warfare!

The pirates were also very experienced, and when they saw that the flanking fleet suddenly began to shoot at them, they immediately turned the bow of the ship, leaned on the sturdy bow and ate the cannonballs, and kept approaching Angelo's fleet!

Frank Lampard and Joe Cole's fleet immediately saw the right moment to start firing, and the shells of both fleets hit the pirates' path just right, forcing the pirates to dodge left and right, greatly reducing the speed of their travel!

And at this moment, Arr's fleet plunged into the pirate fleet like a wedge of steel!

The flagship of the detachment led by him crashed into the belly of the pirate's largest warship impartially, and the Indian Ocean clipper was almost smashed in two with a "pop"!

The pirates screamed and jumped into the sea, but Al ignored the water dogs and continued to charge the next pirate ship with his fleet!

Pirates are all outlaws, but they are secretly frightened to see this kind of lifeless fighting! After all, their biggest purpose in adrift at sea and intercepting ships is to seek money.

It is best to be able to catch the merchant fleet that has no ability to resist, and it is also possible to scare and scare when encountering a warfleet with limited resistance and weak will to fight.

He doesn't respect the pirate profession at all, right?

But what can they do? Under the leadership of Al, the team of newly recruited sailors, who were not too elite, suddenly burst out with amazing momentum, and with the support of other vanguard fleets, they sank and captured three pirate ships, and the remaining ones began to turn their bows and flee in embarrassment!

The red-eyed Al frantically waved the war knife in his hand, and led his warships to continue to pursue the pirates' warships, but the two sides were in the same direction, the same wind direction and current, the pirates have always been known for their speed, and it was not easy for Al to catch up with them!

At this time, a few people from the professional class began to show their power! Their fleet has securely locked the fleeing pirate fleet within range of their guns! At the junction where the Arr fleet and the pirate fleet were slightly separated, the guns of the three sub-fleets immediately began to roar, and the flying cannonballs covered the pirates' fleets, and the sea was full of mourning for a while!

I watched the battle from afar with a telescope, and I had my own calculations in my heart. These newly promoted navigators lived up to expectations and did a good job of commanding this skirmish.

Although there is still a lot to discuss in between, after all, they are young people, and their tactics are in line with their age characteristics, so there is nothing to criticize.

The battle came and went quickly, and in less than an hour, this skull-hung pirate fleet was the dust of history.

The supply fleet of the Wooding Chamber of Commerce came over, and the leader of the team was actually one of the beautiful girls who had been with Wooding all the year round, named Tina!

When she saw me, she happily saluted me and said, "Mr. Sun, my master was wounded in battle not long ago and is recuperating in Basra. He is worried that the Kaplan Chamber of Commerce will take the opportunity to counterattack us, so you have come with the fleet in a proper way! O Messenger of Allah! ”

I saw the joy on her face, and couldn't help but shake my head and smile bitterly, and then asked, "Is Woodin seriously injured?" How did it get hurt? ”

The beautiful girl Tina pouted pitifully and said: "The master has frequently won battles with the Kaplan Chamber of Commerce, but he has been set a trap by the Kaplan Chamber of Commerce and the cunning Spaniards, and he is flanked on both sides!" The owner was injured by a stray bullet and we desperately tried to get him back to Basra! ”

After thinking about it, he continued: "I went south this time, in fact, I wanted to go to Africa to find Mr. Rodriguez's help, but I didn't expect to meet you!" That's great! Thank Allah! ”

It seems that this kid Woodin is not lightly injured! Well, for the sake of the allies, I will inevitably go to Basra first, and at the same time be fully informed and prepare for the next move.

"Lead the way! We're going to Basra now! I said to Tina.

"Yes! Mr. Sun! With you, we're sure to win! Glory will belong to our allies! Tina smiled and turned back to her boat, where she went as a guide.

My heart was not so optimistic, and even the mighty Woodin was on the move, showing that Kaplan's alliance with the Sibal Toothmen and pirates was not so simple. But in any case, let's take a look at this kid Woodin first, listen to what he has to say, and then make the next step!

The fleet goes all the way north, and the target is the port of Basra!
