The operation to wipe out the interstellar pirates started early the next morning, and we finally had breakfast.

Since it wasn't an emergency, most people's meals weren't even rushed.

Also, only when you are full can you beat people harder.

Clive held the bread in his mouth, poured milk for himself, looked a little nervous, and lowered his head twice or three times to check the memo he wrote last night.

I couldn't stand it anymore and took the paper away from his hand.

"Oh, Sanin..." He looked at me suspiciously.

"Appropriate tension is helpful for efficiency, and excessive tension will make you a fool," I said helplessly, "Clay, believe in yourself, you are braver, more stable, and smarter than most people I have ever met."

Clive's ears were a little red, they may have grown so big since he was a child, and no one had ever praised him so bluntly.

"However, I still have some..." He couldn't say the word "fear", for fear of being heard by the veterans, "Sanin, you are not afraid at all, you are brave."

I looked at this silly boy with pity.

How could it be possible not to be afraid on the battlefield for the first time?Unless it's a real fool.I'm not afraid, that's because it's not my first time.

"Even if you don't believe in yourself or me, you still have to trust Instructor Gabriel. Although he speaks harshly, he is a real strong man."

"It's rare to hear you say good things about me." The familiar voice sounded above my head again.

I clenched my fists, gritted my teeth and said, "Do you really want to be so elusive and eavesdrop on children's chats?"

Gabriel stretched out two hands, hooked me with his left hand and Clive with his right hand, and said with a smile, "How can it be called eavesdropping? I listened openly and honestly."

He didn't comment on Clive's fear, whether encouraging or criticizing, because it's useless to talk about this kind of thing.Only when the little boy actually walks on the battlefield can he know how he will react.

"However, I am really curious, Sanin, why are you not afraid at all?"

I know that this issue will be brought up sooner or later, and I once thought about pretending to be afraid of the battlefield, but when I think about it carefully, with Gabriel's sensitivity, pretending is easy to expose.

"Because I've seen it before," I said casually, spreading margarine on the bread. "When I was in my pajamas, I ran into broken limbs all over the floor. I was so scared that my calves were weak, but I couldn't run. I found out that as long as I run Get up, that's all."

The three roommates stared wide-eyed in shock, and even Gabriel's smile froze.

"It's not written on your resume." Gabriel thought thoughtfully.

I smiled lightly and said casually, "Family issues."

Anyway, it's over if I push things to the Lu family. Anyway, Gabriel must know my "true identity" and the messy things about Lu Tonghua and Lu Heyuan.

As for whether Lu Tonghua will have a headache?Heh, he has cooperated with the Rose Legion to seize the position of Patriarch, so it is too late to think about separating the relationship?

The Army of the Roses is a quagmire, and whoever gets involved will be doomed. If Lu Tonghua dares to betray, the group of fanatics will dare to slaughter the entire Lu family. This is the end of seeking skin from a tiger.

Gabriel patted my head and said softly, "After this operation, come and find me alone, Sanin."

"Ah."

The seventh squadron of the Patrol Army has nearly 100 people, and is assigned a Yunlei ship, three frigates, and five supply ships.

The organizational scale of the Imperial Patrol Fleet varies from place to place, and under normal circumstances, it follows the "[-]" principle.

As a mother ship at the core of the command, it is equipped with nine Yunlei ships, as well as a varying number of frigates and supply ships.

A Yunlei ship is a detachment, equipped with three frigates and five supply ships.

According to the number of people, an ordinary patrol force is about 1100-1200 people, including logistics personnel and so on.Of course, there are also particularly important areas. The empire will send enhanced patrols. The number of patrols will be doubled, and the number of motherships will also be doubled.

At the level of the Star Field Army, there are tens of thousands of motherships in one legion alone. At this time, the core of command is the "planetary fortress". Yes, you read that right, a mobile ship that can move, defend, and attack. Planet Fortress.

Therefore, the patrol team to wipe out the local pirates is really a small scene. Even the application report may not be sent to the Star Field Commander, and any staff member can approve it.Even so, for ordinary pirates, it is considered a disaster.

Even a large pirate group with more than a dozen ships would turn around and flee when faced with a well-equipped patrol team.

Want to fight back?Okay, even if you can destroy a cloud and thunder ship by using the anti-sky... Uh, let’s blow it up a bit and destroy a mother ship, congratulations, maybe you can see the planetary fortress and tens of thousands of mother ships in your lifetime. Ships, as well as the overwhelming clouds and thunder ships, and the frigates that make secret fear and despair.

That's right, the empire is so tyrannical and vengeful, it hits the small ones, and the big ones come.Is this a mothership problem?This is really a matter of face for the empire!

Captain Qiu Jun wanted to stay on the mothership to control the overall situation. At first, he wanted to put us on the Yunlei ship, because it would be safer with the protection of the frigate.

However, Gabriel refused, took us to a frigate, and successfully took command of the ship as a major.

As first-year military students, we haven't had the battleship class yet, so we don't know how to control it at all, so we can only serve as assistants.They are said to be assistants, but in fact they are the little boys of the veterans, sticking closely behind them, trying to learn everything they are used to.

Speaking of which, the Army of the Roses did not deliberately train me how to pilot a battleship, but, how to say that, I grew up in practice.

I can be a captain, and these operations don't bother me, but the official operating standards are different from Ye Luzi, so I enjoy watching them equally.

The task area assigned to the seventh team was not too big, it was close to the meteorite belt, and did not encounter any enemies at the beginning.

The Yunlei ship continued to move forward, our frigate was on the right side, the veterans were doing their own things in silence, Gabriel sat in the captain's seat, put away all the loose jokes, looked serious and focused, and conveyed an order from time to time .

The solemnity of the battlefield made the young boys feel oppressed and uneasy, but they all raised their heads, widened their eyes, and worked harder to learn everything they saw.

Almost suddenly, a distress message broke into the signal receiver of the seventh team.

"Yesterday?" The frigate also received the message, Gabriel's expression was calm and he couldn't see his thoughts.

Yesterday is well-known in the universe, but soldiers don't care about the retro hobbies of upper-class people, so they haven't heard much about it.

Before deciding to wipe out the pirates, the imperial patrols naturally couldn't issue a wide-spread notice, which would be tantamount to notifying the slickers to escape, but they did contact the heads of the major merchant shipping companies and asked them to provide a list of merchant ships sailing in this area to avoid accidental injury.

But Yesterday is not on that list, it shouldn't be here.

According to the distress message, the yesterday was hijacked by interstellar pirates, and the other party had only one ship called the White Pearl.

In the information sent back by the spies, there was indeed the name of the White Pearl. It was a newly-emerged pirate during this period. Captain Golmis was famous for being fierce and vicious, and even pirates were unwilling to provoke him.Gormish has only one ship, but there are rumors that he has a mysterious background.

"White pearls, white roses." I walked past Gabriel and listened to the whispered words.

I:……

So I said a long time ago that General Lorenzo's obsessive-compulsive disorder must be cured!Look, the empire guesses right!

It's really tiring to have such a group of stupid teammates.

However, Louis Hodgson still has some skills, and he actually let me get in touch with the White Pearl.But under the current situation, how to take away the information on the White Pearl under Gabriel's nose, or simply destroy this group of pirates?

Before we hesitated for a long time, the communication video of Captain Qiu Jun was connected to the screen. He looked a little annoyed and frowned.

"Gormys has already brought people aboard the Yesterday, and once he sees the imperial warship approaching, he will take the tourists on board as hostages."

It is very easy to destroy the White Pearl, and the mothership does not even need to approach. As long as the Yunlei ship activates the main weapon, the two ships can be turned into garbage in the universe in an instant.But in the meantime, the yesterday visitor will die along with the pirates.

Get rid of the hostages first, so the bandits can't threaten us... What the hell kind of Russian rescue is this?

"We need to save yesterday's ship, honored guest." Captain Qiu Jun said expressionlessly.

Although he said it cryptically, Gabriel immediately understood, and even I understood, that there were people of extraordinary status on board yesterday.

Of course, considering the strength of the imperial military, they are not afraid of the politicians in the House of Representatives, nor are they afraid of powerful families and capital companies.However, this is just the confidence of the big shots, not something they can compare to.

To put it simply, death will not happen, and it will not be fired, but it will be very troublesome.

It was also because of this that Captain Qiu Jun sought Gabriel's help.He is just a patrol captain stationed at the place, and no one will speak for him if he is responsible, but Gabriel is different. After all, he is Satin Lack's mentor, he is full of peaches and plums, and he is deeply trusted and favored by the principal.

The headmaster of the Second Interstellar Military Academy... is no ordinary person.

"Saving people must be saved, but we cannot compromise with the pirates unconditionally. This is for the face of the empire and our integrity as soldiers." Gabriel expressed his attitude without even raising his eyebrows.

It is their duty to save people, but let them give up the bottom line, or take the blame?Don't even think about it!

I was silent for a moment, thinking it was a good time to speak.

"Sir, the subordinates have something important to report about the yesterday number!"

Gabriel and Qiu Jun's eyes fell on me, and even the other soldiers glanced at me intentionally or unintentionally.

"Say."

"Yesterday was built in imitation of cruise ships in the classical era of the earth. In order to achieve 100% restoration, they reproduced the same escape method. The Lu family has shares in the Samaritan Company, so I know that they prepared escape boats and escape on the top floor aisle."

The interstellar era is different from the age of great exploration, and the universe and oceans are also different.

The escape pods of interstellar merchant ships are generally built under the left and right sides of the hull, no one will put them on the top floor, and a secret escape door is specially opened.Are you sick?Worried that someone won't be able to hack your ship?

But how to put it, the idea of ​​the rich is to be different. In order to imitate the Titanic, they really made a complete set.It's just that this thing is unlucky to say, and it is not the focus of the company's publicity, so it is ignored by most people.

I know this, but it's not because of the Lu family, after all, I'm not the real Lu Heyuan.

The main reason was that when I was in the Army of the Roses, I was responsible for sorting out information from the entire universe for General Val. When I saw that the Titanic was reproduced on the Yesterday, I was shocked and extremely puzzled.

Is the head of the Samaritan Company so iron?Want to reproduce the "unsinkable" flag?

So, I took the time to study yesterday.

"There's no way pirates know that." Normal people don't.

"But the Samaritan Company must have the blueprint of the Yesterday and the code for the escape door. If we can sneak into the Yesterday and control most of the pirates, we can save the tourists, or send them in a lifeboat. leave."

Sneaking into an enemy warship is actually a traditional art of interstellar combat, but the success rate is extremely low. After all, few fools would let people touch their own ship.

But the problem is... Yesterday is not Gormish's ship, and the pirates are not familiar with it.

"The White Pearl relies on the Yesterday, but Goldsmith will never take everyone on the Yesterday, and will definitely keep the manpower. Classical cruise ships in the Earth Age are famous for their luxury and complexity. The terrain structure is very complicated, and the pirates are not familiar with it." .So, the pressure to sneak in is not too great."

Qiu Jun and Gabriel fell into thinking and found that it was indeed a good idea.

"I will immediately order the Seventh Division to organize a tactical team, and let the Samaritan Company send the blueprint." Qiu Jun said decisively.

Gabriel looked at me with an inquiring look.

Don't look at me, I also feel puzzled, this incident is full of coincidences: the Army of the Roses asked me to find the White Pearl, and I happened to meet the White Pearl; the White Pearl robbed the Yesterday, and in the entire universe, except As the ship designer of the Samaritan Company, I am probably the only one who is most familiar with this ship.

But things have come to this, although I don't know who is plotting against me and why, I can only bite the bullet and continue.

"Sir, I am familiar with Yesterday, I can join the tactical team." I stared at Gabriel and said seriously.

"No." Gabriel refused decisively.

It's one thing to study on a frigate, but it's another thing to sneak directly into the enemy's territory and fight. No matter how crazy he is, he won't be so serious that he will send an untrained teenager to his death.

"Even with blueprints, it is difficult for the tactical team to completely control the pirates. They are scattered all over the hull. As long as one pirate escapes, it may harm the hostages."

"You underestimate professional soldiers too much, and this is not the first time a tactical team has gone behind enemy lines."

"Eliminating the enemy and protecting the hostages are two different things." I softened my voice and said sincerely. "The tactical team needs spies to help them find out the situation on the ship before they can do it with confidence. It is impossible for pirates to think that a teenage child will be a member of the military." people."

"They have scanners."

"You know very well that once the pirates occupy the victim ship, they will immediately activate the jammer, preventing the ship from sending out a distress signal, and preventing the imperial army from scanning the internal situation,"

We are also people who have been pirates, and the industry process is clear.

"What exactly do you want?" Gabriel asked in a deep voice, "Are you so eager to make meritorious service?"

"I'm a soldier," I said.

Of course, Gabriel didn't believe it.

"I really want to save the tourists on the yesterday." This is a truth, and then added, "I also want to make a contribution, otherwise the family will not let me stay in Sadinlac."

This is also the truth, if this mission fails, I suspect that I will be killed by the Rose Army.

A subordinate who repeatedly fails in missions has no need to live.

I know I'm a little impatient, and I might even raise Gabriel's guard, who has just let go of his doubts, but I have to.Only by taking the initiative can we better control our destiny and protect those around us...
