Luo Yi had the support of Colonel Smoker, and it was the other party who took the initiative to propose it, which was a surprise, otherwise he could only go there alone, and the result was difficult to say, especially the 21st Navy Branch. They may act on Luo Yi in order to cover up, and in the end, it is very likely that Luo Yi will become a traitor to the navy, and it may be possible to be forced to become a pirate.

Selecting soldiers, Luo Yi screened very seriously, first of all, the technical troops, which can directly use the crew on the original warship, and the collocation of other arms needs to be considered.

The artillery used the 12th unit with the best performance, and the musketeer Luo Yi selected five troops with a full 500 people, and finally added a saber team of 300 people to complete the formation of the expeditionary force, counting the crew and artillery of exactly 1,000 people.

If these people want to bring them all back alive, Luo Yi needs to be extremely careful, and the best way is not to let them get off the ship, so he brought a musket force of five hundred people, completely to block the possibility of the enemy approaching the warship, and the saber team of three hundred people is just in case, and the strength of a thousand people in the East China Sea can be said to be huge.

After the selection was completed, everything was ready, Luo Yi directly made a request to go to the battle, the weather was good that day, and early in the morning, thousands of soldiers boarded the warship in confusion, and their commander turned out to be a second lieutenant.

The captains in charge of the team did not understand this, but the discipline of the navy did not question them, but strictly carried out the order.

"Salute" Luo Yi shouted, and thousands of soldiers lined up on the deck to salute Colonel Smoker who saw him off, and behind Smoker was a lieutenant colonel, a lieutenant colonel who came here with Luo Yi.

"Let's go." The medium-sized warship Yang Fan set sail, and their target was the 21st Navy Branch.

"Colonel Smoker, it's not appropriate for you to do this, send half of the base's troops at once." The lieutenant colonel said dissatisfied.

"Lieutenant Colonel Poole, didn't I stay?" Smoker said lazily.

"But Luo Yi is only a second lieutenant, and all his subordinates are now captains, in this case, the combat effectiveness of the troops is a problem, and the strength of the opponent is not very clear to us."

"It doesn't matter, Luo Yi's strength is at least a captain, maybe it's even higher, the pirates in the East China Sea are generally weak, and I don't want to wear down his sharpness, the navy is a little lifeless now, we need such a young man."

"This is too hasty, what about the lives of a thousand soldiers?" Lieutenant Colonel Poole roared.

"They're the Navy." After Smoker finished speaking, he turned to leave, and Lieutenant Colonel Poole was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent. The Navy is dying every day, and although a lot of garbage insults the name of justice in the Navy, there are many more soldiers who fight for justice every day.

This is their belief, just like the thousand soldiers who went out on the expedition, Smoker now only wants Luo Yi to bring them back alive, and his psychology is not so easy.

On the warship, ten captains gathered in the office, this is Smoker's room on the warship, and now it is temporarily under Luo Yi.

"Guys, I know you don't understand this kind of operation, I'm just a second lieutenant, but now you need to listen to my command." Luo Yi said first.

"Second Lieutenant Luo Yi, we do have doubts about this, but please rest assured, we are the navy, and carrying out orders is the most basic." One captain was blunt.

"Very good, just say it, but this is not enough, I need you to completely let go of the doubts in your hearts and carry out my orders 100%, although I have not led troops to the battle, but I am not useless." After Luo Yi finished speaking, he directly faced the ten captains and made a starting gesture of drawing a knife.

Instantly locked on the ten captains in front of him, and these captains could completely feel that they were being stared at, and the cold sweat instantly left their foreheads, Second Lieutenant Luo Yi did have strength, just one action and sharp eyes made them feel dangerous, and some captains had already put their hands on the hilt of their knives.

The air seemed to freeze, and the two sides confronted each other like this, until Luo Yi stood up straight again, and the ten captains relaxed, "I have to admit that although Second Lieutenant Luo Yi was promoted quickly and his qualifications are not enough, your strength is above us, but the navy only relies on strength." ”

"I naturally understand this, so let's talk about the goal of this trip, the 21st Navy Branch, I judge that the Creek Pirates are in a large shipyard near here, and they are entrusted with the construction of pirate ships, of course, they may not be here. But once we find them, then this pirate group is our target, and Crick's opponent is me, the real battle is mine and Crick, you don't need to participate in the battle, once I am defeated, you just turn around and leave. ”

"How can this be?" Naturally, the captains will not agree, they are navy, how can they escape?

"Ladies and gentlemen, I promised Colonel Smoker to take you back alive, so be sure to follow your orders, and if I am defeated, then the other pirates will be left to you. Take the musket team as the main attack, of course, the specific situation will depend on the situation, if the opponent attacks, then you rely on the warship for long-range defense, and the musket team and artillery can completely block the opponent's offensive route. ”

"And what about the Sabres?" The three captains of the Sabre team looked at Luo Yi.

"Just in case, if someone breaks through the defense, then the opponent's strength is a little stronger, so I need the Sabre team to use tactics to besiege the enemy and seal it in the center of you."

"Are you really planning to complete the mission without hurting a single soldier?"

"No, this is just an idealized tactic, what is really needed is to defeat Crick himself, once he is defeated, then the pirates are vulnerable, after all, he is a sea pirate with a bounty of 17 million Bailey, and the specific strength is unknown. Now we need to work together, and I remind you to be mindful of the movements of the 21st Branch, not to trust them easily, and not to let their warships come near us. ”

"You doubt?"

"It's not a doubt, it's a certainty, now it's up to them to see if they're going crazy, if they still have their senses, they can sit back and watch the results, if they're crazy, you must fight back immediately."

"Yes." The ten captains were basically convinced of Luo Yi, the sword drawing technique just now was indeed very powerful, but everyone was also worried about the outcome of the battle, did they really want to turn around and leave?

Everything was calm, the warship rode the wind and waves all the way on the sea, the medium warship was very fast, it only took them three days to approach the 21st branch, everyone was a little nervous, after all, this time they were not following Colonel Smoker, but a second lieutenant.
