Chapter 393: Rush to the Rescue

After waiting in Hengbo Port for a few days, Ye Tao felt that something was wrong, and the old man Qi immediately tried his best to get out of the sea battle and rushed back to Hengbo Port after receiving the news, calculating the time and distance, and before he knew it, Ye Tao had been in Hengbo Port for a month, and had already completed the factory design of the Nanyang branch of Ye's Workshop and the list of workshops that would be established here one after another, and even had already made the preliminary design drawings and preliminary engineering plans for the reconstruction of Hengbo Port, and had already begun to make a budget with the assistance of Tan Weixin. Even a certain guy of the Samir family in Chunnan who is more able to talk than Assad has received contact from Assad, came to see Ye Tao and Tan Weixin, and by the way, contacted Seven Seas Trading Company about the sale of the Samir family's business, and the comprehensive management of Hengbo Port has made a little progress under the eager care of Liu Yi and Yu Yanhu...... However, Old Man Qi hadn't been able to rush back to attend the deacon's meeting of the Seven Seas Trading Company.

Not only Ye Tao, but also the senior deacons who arrived at Hengbo Port one after another from the Seven Seas Trading Company also felt that something was wrong, the escort fleet remaining in Hengbo Port had already set off, and the escort ships that those senior deacons brought with them to Hengbo Port were also organized in case they were needed. The reason why Nanami Trading Company's maritime power is strong is of course because of the excellent quality of the warships mainly carried out by the Huya ships and the powerful weapons equipped with various near and far weapons, and also because Nanami Trading Company's escort ships and warships can be organized into large and small fleets at any time as long as needed, and there is no problem in communication and coordination between them. When the shipyard was established on Crescent Island, Nanami Trading's seafarer training system began to operate quietly, and with a little coordination, the transmission of instructions between them was very smooth.

After another two days, the news finally came that Qi Zhentao and his escort fleet were evacuating from the Montoya Islands, the main battlefield of the naval battle, when they encountered a huge fleet of mainly the Kingdom of Bosa, preparing to surprise the Samir family and the alliance of the Seven Seas Trading Company from this direction. The old man relied on the complex terrain and ocean currents of the easternmost islands of the Montoya Islands and the enemy's hide-and-seek to hold back this raiding fleet, and relied on the excellent ships mainly the Huya ships to inflict continuous losses on the opponent. Speaking of which, Qi Zhentao's luck is not very good, but the luck of the entire Samir family and the alliance of the Seven Seas Trading Company is very good. If this fleet suddenly appeared on the battlefield, the impact would be quite serious. The Samir family's naval warfare management route was similar to that of the Nanami Trading Company, which was the kind of organization that emphasized the combat capability of a single ship and the tactical fleet of the fleet, but it suffered greatly in numbers. In the face of a huge number of enemies in the field of vision, no matter who they are, no matter how confident they are in themselves, I am afraid that they will inevitably feel furious. And Old Man Qi's escort fleet is so mixed, and now the whole battle situation has become confusing. The Kingdom of Bosa has several other national barriers on land, but it does not directly conflict with the Samir family, and its strength is the most intact, which is also the first time that the powerful Kingdom of Bosa has fought against the Samir family. After such an encounter, both sides began to try to adjust their combat posture, adjust their tactics against the enemy, and try to disrupt the opponent's tactics. Qi Zhentao's fleet dragged almost five times his size and was dragged back into the core of the operation, becoming an extremely critical link in the entire operation.

Now that there is news, the Hengbo Port side immediately organized a powerful fleet and prepared to rush to the aid of the Montoya Islands, striving to be able to go down in one fell swoop and completely remove the last obstacle to the establishment of the Samir family. At a time when Seven Seas Trading Company is seeking a deeper cooperation with the Samir family and taking over a part of the Samir family's business, this move also has a strong bargaining chip.

"Who will lead the fleet?" At the beginning, Ye Tao did not want to intervene in the reorganization of the Seven Seas Trading Company, but only summoned the shooting commanders on all the warships, answered some questions about the use of the new shooting and ranging instruments, and also introduced the new research progress of Ye's workshop in naval weapons and firearms, and briefly introduced some methods of air-ground integrated attacks carried out by the airship team in Yunzhou. This is understandable to the warship commanders of Nanami Trading Company, who are well-versed in flag language and have already begun to consider ships such as airship carriers. These things do not immediately improve the combat capability of the fleet, but they can give them a lot of confidence boost. In addition, Ye Tao only paid attention to who would lead this powerful fleet, which included one hundred and nineteen Huya ships. In his mind, both Assad and Qi Zhu were already on the sea, and now Yokoba couldn't really find anyone with enough prestige and status to lead this fleet.

"You don't know? The commanders of those escort fleets quarreled with each other, and no one obeyed anyone, and then, some people said, isn't Ye Jingluo in Hengbo Port? Ye Jing slightly can't lead us? Tan Weixin answered Ye Tao's question with a smile. And two or three clerks from the Seven Seas Trading Company who came to cooperate with Tan Weixin's work snickered there. Tan Weixin has been communicating with these well-informed people at Seven Seas Trading Company about financial issues, and her understanding of these situations is so fast as Ye Tao's. Many people in the Seven Seas Trading Company knew that Ye Tao would never come up with any unprofessional opinions about naval warfare, a field that he was not familiar with. However, in all respects, even if Ye Tao is part-time, he is a super-first-class shooting commander, and in terms of identity and prestige, if he can suppress those who are in charge, I am afraid he must be a layman, and among all laymen, Ye Tao is considered an expert. The bigwigs of the Seven Seas Trading Company, including Liu Yi, just didn't know how to talk to Ye Tao about this for a while. After all, if Ye Tao led the fleet to attack like this, I am afraid that he would really have to attend the founding ceremony of the Samir Kingdom before he could go back.

"Me?" Ye Tao was stunned. "Why me?" Ye Tao asked before he thought that this was really an obvious thing, he sighed and said, "If I really can't find anyone, I'll go." ”

"I'll go too." Tan Weixin said resolutely. "It's rare for me to catch up with this kind of thing. You don't know how much I envied Dai Yun. Well, I'm not seasick, you have to take me with you. ”

Ye Tao frowned, thought for a while, and said, "Okay." Just go for it. Just be together anyway. I don't really care about anything else. ”

Their unscrupulous conversation made the people of Nanami Trading Company who were present stand stupidly and didn't know how to react. Looking at these two high-ranking powers, every word and deed can affect many people, affect people in a city, a state and even a country, and easily implement a very important thing. Ye Tao must know the danger of naval warfare, and Tan Weixin is not such a naïve person. Although the death rate of Nanami Trading Company has been low in recent years, that does not mean that the danger does not exist. And in this kind of super war, where both sides have invested more than 1,000 ships, anything can happen. Ye Tao may want to consider the overall situation, but what about Wei Xin? What is this insistence for? In the middle of Ye Tao's sentence "Just be together anyway", what is revealed is very worthy of these people's memories.

"Zhang Shijun, you go to the old man of High-speed Liu and convene a military meeting. I'm going to get ready, and I'm going to the clubhouse. Ye Tao looked at the shocked expressions of those people and commanded as a matter of course. From the moment he felt that he could, that he was willing to lead this fleet sortie, he naturally became the commander-in-chief of the fleet.

When Ye Tao rushed to the Seven Seas Merchant Society in the port, he was very surprised to see an old acquaintance, and saw a large group of people eagerly greeting this unexpected guest in the clubhouse - Min Yue.

"General Min, why are you here at this time?" Ye Tao hurriedly greeted him. Min Yue was an old friend when he was in Yicheng, and he bought the Jiao Villa from Ye Tao. Ye Tao has never interrupted his communication with Min Yue over the years. And the Min family, as the first family in Dongping in terms of sailors, has also been receiving a lot of news and technical support from Ye Tao and Seven Seas Trading Company. Although the Min family did not become a member of Seven Seas Trading Company because of their status, they have always cooperated closely. The fleet of the Min family is now the largest maritime merchant fleet in Dongping.

"Hehe, the news came to Yicheng, saying that you actually came to Nanyang, and asked us to send a Huya ship to pick you up. I thought that I didn't have anything to do recently, but Nanyang was lively, so I quickly took advantage of this opportunity to run over. This was agreed by His Majesty, and I also brought the first fleet of the Yazhou Naval Division, fourteen Huya ships, and twenty-four improved versions of the Lanshui ships...... I heard, just in time for a big war? Min Yue's eyes were very eager. Min Yue is a general who fought all the way through naval battles, and he has extremely rich experience in naval warfare. It's just that with the rise of the Nanami Trading Company in recent years, his command of the sailors is more about collecting pirates and clearing goods. It is also quite cruel to let a warlord do the things of the farming faction, but he has been holding back for a long time, and when he hears that there is a battle, it is still a battle of a thousand ships, so he naturally can't hold it back.

"Hey, General Min, you're bringing the Dongping Naval Division, Your Majesty asked you to come over to play, authorizing you to make a decision on the fly and intervene in the Middle East situation as Dongping's official identity?" Ye Tao said angrily.

"I can't, but you can." Min Yue smiled wryly and said, "Come, look at Your Majesty's handwriting." ”

Glancing at the edict that didn't seem to say anything, it was the one that gave Ye Tao all the right to decide, Ye Tao shrugged his shoulders. There is actually nothing wrong with Dongping intervening, treating the Samir family as a state-to-state, or it should be said, the current Samir Kingdom, this attitude alone will win a solid ally for itself.

"Well, General Min...... There's no more. Now that the support fleet of the Seven Seas Trading Company will depart soon, let the First Fleet of Yazhou get ready and set off with the fleet of the Seven Seas Trading Company early tomorrow morning. And you, be the deputy commander of the fleet and the chief of the combat command. Ye Tao sighed.

"The last general obeys!" Min Yue replied excitedly, and then laughed.
