Chapter 75： command

On the great route, in a sea area about 100 nautical miles outside the G8 branch, there is a fleet breaking the waves. If it is a navy, it is not surprising, but it is a fleet composed of pirate ships.

On a large-scale pirate ship headed by him, a pirate with a scary scar on his face and an aura of violence all over his body is standing on the bow deck. If anyone from the navy sees him, he will definitely recognize him. It is the pirate with the highest reward in this supernova...

The blood slaughter Talos with a bounty of up to 215 million!

Speaking of this year's supernova, there are nine people in total, but except for Talos, the one with the highest bounty is only 130 million.

This is not to say that Talos is much stronger than the other eight. Although he is indeed stronger than the other eight, his strength is definitely limited.

Although the bounty is mainly based on strength, it is not all, and this is the case with Taros.

The main reason why he got the title of a blood slaughter is that this guy enjoys slaughtering the navy. In short, he thinks of various ways to ambush the navy's single and no high-level warships, and slaughter the navy on the ship. exhausted.

Therefore, he originally only had a strength of 150 million Baileys at most, but he was crowned with a huge bounty of 215 million Baileys.

"Captain, there is news from the monitoring team that just now, a small warship sailed into the G8 branch!"

"Small warship, do you know who is on it?"

"I don't know, but it should be a shipwrecked warship. There are many damages on the hull, and most of the sailors are wearing bandages!"

"Is that so? Well, there are dozens of more hostages, right?"

Hearing this, a sneer appeared on Taros's face. The more hostages, the better, not to mention a ship of sailors who were injured and had limited combat effectiveness.

"Inform all pirates, we will set off in three hours and arrive at the sea area where the G8 branch is located tomorrow night!"

"Yes, Captain!"

------

At the same time, in the G8 branch.

Boom...

As the small warship entered, the huge and exaggerated gate of the fortress closed again with the efforts of the seamen, causing a loud noise.

Soon, the warship docked in the port of the G8 branch, but when the sailors started to disembark, they were dumbfounded by the people in the port.

There are more than 50 people here, why are there still more people behind?

what's going on?

You must know that according to the normal establishment of the navy, the standard crew of a small warship is only 28 people. Even if some special personnel of combat personnel are added, it is generally only more than 40 people.

After all, the ordinary sailors of the G8 branch did not know the detailed plan of this operation, so after seeing the number of people who got off the ship, it was inevitable to be dumbfounded, especially...

They were even more dumbfounded when they finally got off the 120th person from a small warship, and there was still a female lieutenant general.

How did the No. 120 squeeze in? Besides, a female lieutenant general...

There are only two female lieutenant generals in the headquarters, one is the naval staff officer, and the other is Taotu, one of the two alternate generals of the navy, and the one in front of him is obviously not a crane...

Then, a small warship not only secretly transported hundreds of sailors in, but even the alternate generals arrived quietly. Even if they were stupid, they could feel it at the moment, something must have happened!

Just as the sailors of the G8 branch kept guessing, Li Yan and Taotu also walked down the gangway.

To be honest, it's really hard to come here all the way.

Except for more than 20 sailors wearing bandages on the deck to make camouflage, nearly a hundred people spent most of the day in the cabin, and even the aisles, dining rooms and storage rooms were crowded with people. Taotu and some female soldiers were better. They enjoyed two of the three cabins alone. The male soldiers could only be described as miserable.

"Lieutenant General Taotu, I am Major Drake of the G8 branch. According to the order of the Warring States Marshal, the branch will be under your full command from now on!"

"Well, call the heads of all the departments of the branch, I'm going to have a battle meeting!"

"Yes, Lieutenant General!"

Ten minutes later, in the war room of the G8 branch.

Except for Li Yan and Taotu, the heads of all the departments of the branch have arrived, and there are many figures that Li Yan is familiar with, such as the chief chef Jessica, and the maintenance team, such as Mekao and others.

Although some of them are not the head of the department, after all, most of them were temporarily transferred to the G1 branch by Akainu, so they can only be temporarily replaced at present.

"Colonel Li Yan, let me introduce the current situation to everyone!"

"Yes, Lieutenant General Peach Rabbit!"

Nodding his head, Li Yan replied, and changed the Gion general he usually called to Lieutenant General Taotu.

"This matter starts from Magic Valley Town..."

From the beginning to the end, the whole thing was explained in detail, and the expressions of everyone in the G8 branch changed.

There are more than 20 pirate groups, among which the blood slaughter Talos is still the leader. No matter how you look at it, this is not the current number of more than 200 in G8, and it is not enough for the main navy to handle.

No wonder the marshal secretly sent in more than 100 elite sailors under the guise of a shipwrecked ship, and there is also a general candidate, Taotu.

In this case, you really don't need to worry too much. Let's not talk about Taotu's strength, just those sea soldiers, they have seen it when they came just now, they are definitely the elite of the elite, and even many of them may be better than Major Drake is stronger.

"Well, since everyone is clear about the matter, let's arrange combat missions next!"

"Colonel Li Yan, you are in full command of this battle!"

What?

Li Yan, who had just finished speaking and was about to sit down, was instantly stunned.

What does it mean to be in full command of me?

I'm afraid this crazy woman is making some bad ideas again, right?

Moreover, not only Li Yan was stunned, but everyone in the entire war room was stunned.

After all, the candidate for the general is here, and Li Yan is only a colonel of the East China Sea branch, but Taotu actually asked Li Yan to command the battle?

"If you want to do it, you can do it, why are you in a daze!"

"Uh, okay!"

Li Yan was relieved after he pondered for a while. UU reading brought the credit to his door, and he refused, and then nodded.

No matter what the **** the woman is up to, although there may be some pitfalls, Li Yan doesn't believe that Taotu will harm him.

"According to the information we have obtained, the pirates will arrive at the sea area where the branch is located tomorrow and launch an attack in the dark!"

"Although relying on the defense on the outer wall of the G8 branch, plus Lieutenant General Gion and me, it is enough to repel all the pirates, but..."

"I'm not going to do this!"

What?

Pirates are coming, aren't you going to repel them?

In the war room, except for Taotu, everyone didn't know for a while what medicine Li Yan was selling in this gourd, they all looked over and waited for his explanation.

"It's easy to fight them back, but after all, it's on the sea. Although these pirates can lose a lot of manpower, if they scatter and escape, we won't be able to stop them all!"

"Furthermore, even if you can repel these pirates in a defensive battle on the outer wall, in the process of counterattack, it will inevitably cause a lot of damage to the outer wall of the G8 branch!"

"So, we have to lure the enemy to go deep, and then close the door and beat the dog!"

Hearing this, Drake, who was beside him, nodded slightly.

Li Yan is right, since they are here, they should all be left behind, there is no reason to just repel them.

Furthermore, in a defensive battle on the outer wall, especially when the artillery bombards each other, the branch may not be able to take advantage of it.

Although the navy's cannons are better than pirates, there are more than 20 pirate regiments, and there are hundreds of cannons. Even if the navy wins in the end, it is estimated that the outer wall will be seriously damaged.

In contrast, Li Yan's proposal is obviously more in line with his heart!
