Dad kidnapped me to join the army, and the whole army asked me to be their instructor.

"Chief, listen to me!"

"I don't want to hear that much!"

Xu Qianshan was furious: "Give me back my people quickly. Just bring them back to me as you took them away. The deadline is ten hours!"

He gritted his teeth: "If you can't come back, don't blame me for being rude. I will come to your door and slap your big mouth in person. Even if the King of Heaven is here, I will slap you!"

"Chief, chief, don't hang up, listen to me first..."

Tao Xiuyuan shouted hurriedly: "I gave them four years of funding!"

Xu Qianshan was about to hang up when his hand suddenly hovered in mid-air.

Somehow, he pulled the phone back and put it to his ear again.

"Huh? What did you just say?"

Tao Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief: "Chief, I didn't ask your soldiers to help in vain. I had already negotiated with them when I brought them back from the plateau."

"As long as they help us complete this task, we will pay the Flying Tiger Brigade a one-time payment for four years."

Xu Qianshan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"In addition, we will also..."

"Don't talk about these useless things!"

Xu Qianshan said sternly: "I asked them to help you not just for the sake of funding. The soldiers in our army have no interest in money!"

"If you rush to a certain high ground, you can open it for 100 million, but no one will rush for 1000 million."

"But they will charge fearlessly for their faith."

"So, don't ask me for money!"

Tao Xiuyuan's mouth twitched excitedly.

If I didn't ask you for money, would you still be here listening to me?

"Okay, okay, I won't mention it, I won't mention it anymore."

Xu Qianshan snorted coldly: "How many days will your mission take?"

Tao Xiuyuan shook his head: "We don't know yet. In the short term, it will be over in two or three days. In the long term, we can't say for sure. It may be a month. It mainly depends on when the pirates will come out."

"I don't care about this!"

Xu Qianshan said coldly: "I will only give you seven days. Starting from today, they must come back on the evening of the seventh day. By then, I will be waiting for them at Jiaolong!"

"No, Chief, just in case..."

"Nothing goes wrong. What I just said must be done!" Xu Qianshan said coldly.

"As I said just now, if I can't see them, I will come to the door myself. Then don't blame me for slapping your big mouth!"

After hanging up the phone with a bang, Xu Qianshan was beaming with joy.

Du Hongyuan on the side smiled bitterly: "They are about to carry out a new mission. It would be great to let them rest for these seven days. There is no need to help the navy and the others. Aren't they going to be exhausted when they come back?"

"What do you know?" Xu Qianshan laughed and said, "Four years, four years of funding!"

"It's not easy to get funds from big tycoons like the Navy. Don't waste it."

"In this way, I can at least reduce the funding for the Flying Tiger Brigade for two years, and then won't it be able to be used on our other troops?"

"Besides, they are usually as tired as dogs, so it doesn't matter if they are tired for another day."

Du Hongyuan's eyes also lit up, he gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Old Xu, you must be smart enough. How else can you be the commander and I am the deputy?"

The office was filled with the hearty laughter of the two people.

……

At the sea training ground, Tao Xiuyuan shook his head as he walked, his face full of sullenness: "Seven days, just seven days!"

"Four years of funding were exchanged in seven days. These guys in the Army are really ruthless!"

Walking to the door of a conference room, it was brightly lit.

He tried hard to adjust his mentality.

After he calmed down a bit, he opened the door and went in.

"How's the research going?"

He closed the door and walked towards Lin Hui and Wu Lang with a smile.

The two of them were lying in front of a huge map.

Countless islands are marked in white in the middle.

Everywhere else is blue water.

But there are also some red areas circled, which represent places where pirates hang out.

Wu Lang shook his head: "I still don't have a clue at the moment."

He looked at Tao Xiuyuan: "The place they come to is different every time, and the evacuation route is also different. They may run this way, this way, or even that way."

Tao Xiu looked over and saw that one of the three directions was Bangzi, one was Yanguo, and the other was the Pacific Ocean.

It just didn't go to the plaster.

These routes are really a bit baffling.

"Moreover, the time they appear is also very elusive, and there is no pattern at all. Not only that, but the places they appear are also not fixed."

"You see, they committed the crime five times, all on different routes."

"Obviously there were so many ships passing by, but they seemed to attack randomly, and there was no pattern at all."

Wu Lang shook his head: "Unless we patrol the high seas area, and we have to patrol 24 hours a day. But in that case, it will consume a lot of manpower, material and financial resources."

Tao Xiuyuan shook his head silently: "No, if you do this, it will not only waste a lot of money and make a lot of noise, but it will also alert the snake."

"Since we can conclude that these guys are sent by Plaster, they must be very well prepared."

"As long as we go out, they will definitely know in advance. As long as they find a place to hide, they can watch our jokes, and they will come out after we leave."

"If this continues, not only will we reach a deadlock, but we won't be able to find them at all."

Wu Lang nodded silently, his brows knitted into a knot.

He looked at Lin Hui: "Commander Lin, what do you think? Do you have any ideas?"

The two of them looked at Lin Hui together, waiting for him to speak.

The reason why Tao Xiuyuan came to him was to buy cheap medicine.

More importantly, they valued Lin Hui's ability.

Although Lin Hui is not a naval officer, he has a wild mind and can always predict the enemy's opportunities and predict their predictions.

Such a big thing happened this time, and the superiors have issued strict orders.

Piracy must be cracked down as soon as possible to ensure smooth shipping routes.

This is not only to reduce losses, but also to give security and confidence to businessmen around the world who have trade cooperation with Yan State.

The matter was so important that they could only invite Lin Hui over.

Even if it means paying more money, the task must be completed as soon as possible.

Lin Hui ignored them. Instead, he laid his hands on the table and looked at the map carefully.

One moment he picks up the pen, the next he picks up the ruler, and the next he picks up the compass.

Drawing back and forth on the map.

Tao Xiuyuan and Wu Lang looked at each other.

Since Lin Hui didn't reply, they simply gathered around and watched carefully.

Time passed by, and the night was already very deep.

But the lights in the conference room were still bright.

Both of them's eyes were a little sore from looking at it.

But Lin Hui still stared at the map, trying to find any clues inside.

"Ha..." Tao Xiuyuan yawned involuntarily.

At this moment, Lin Hui finally spoke: "Now, our only way is to scare the snake first, and then lead the snake out of the hole."

The two of them lost all sleepiness in an instant and stared at him excitedly.

"Commander Lin, please tell me what you think."

Lin Hui smiled coldly: "You know the situation better than I do, but there is one thing you haven't noticed."

The two stared at him with wide eyes.

Lin Hui pointed at the map: "There are several routes, and each route has between [-] and [-] ships. After careful study, I found that the ships that were robbed by pirates have one thing in common."

"what?"

"There are no guards on these ships."

The two of them widened their eyes together, and then immediately started looking through the information.

"No need to read, I've already seen it."

Lin Hui said: "These passing cargo ships, as long as they transport important supplies or important goods, are escorted by escort companies. There will be no less than ten armed personnel on board."

"And the value of the materials transported by the robbed ship was relatively low, so there were no guards on the ship."

"Then the question is, how do these pirates know whether there are security guards on these ships?"

Wu Lang's eyes lit up instantly: "Remote thermal imaging!"

"Yes." Lin Hui nodded: "They knew whether there were armed personnel on the ship before they took action."

"To put it bluntly, they did not attack randomly, but with purpose, specifically picking out those weak persimmons."

"Otherwise, even if they are all trained regular troops, it will not be easy to board the ship with armed security on board."

"It doesn't take many people. Just stand on the deck and shoot from a high position, and you can make them suffer big losses."

The two of them nodded together, and Tao Xiuyuan immediately asked, "What about your plan?"

Lin Hui smiled and said: "We have only two options now, either patrolling and guarding the sea, which wastes a lot of manpower and material resources and may not be useful."

"Either we send people to follow each cargo ship, but this will also waste a lot of time. Moreover, the other party can think of both of these options."

"So, I'm going to do the opposite and go their way and leave them with nowhere to go."

"Ah?" The two of them widened their eyes in surprise.
