Chapter 038: It's a Trap
The reason why the news agency in Rogue Town will boast about Hailan's "heroic deeds" everywhere is actually Hailan's secret promoter.
In order to lure out the big fish behind him, Hailan made a plan and disguised himself as a young navy full of enthusiasm.
He hid his true identity and only told the news agency that he was a major sent by the headquarters to carry out the mission.
Of course, all of this doesn't need Hailan to do it himself, and it is actually Chloe who is secretly operating all this.
On the night Colonel Hill and Chloe were captured by Hailan a month ago, Hailan ended up talking to Chloe alone for a long time.
Hailan smiled at Chloe, "You want a decent life, right?" ”
Chloe was silent.
Hailan was not in a hurry, and said slowly: "Do you think I am living a decent life now?" ”
Chloe pushed his glasses: "Do you want to hear the truth or compliments?" ”
"Just say what you want to say."
Chloe thought for a moment and replied truthfully, "I heard that you lead the soldiers in devil training every day, which in my opinion, is not decent at all. ”
"But if you don't have enough strength, how can you live a decent life?"
Hailan's right hand put on Chloe's shoulder, and Chloe was a little disgusted, but didn't dare to resist.
"You and Colonel Hill were decent people in this bar, but have you been decent since I showed up?"
Chloe frowned and asked, "You want me to join the Navy?" ”
"It's easy to talk to smart people."
"If I dare to betray the Millennium Dragon Bounty Hunters Guild, I will dare to betray the Navy, what do you use to guarantee my loyalty?"
These words are just open and honest in saying them now, and there is nothing wrong with them.
But if you join the Navy and then betray it, that's another matter.
Hailan knew that Chloe would have such a question, and he had already prepared the answer: "If you want a decent life, I will give you a decent life." ”
"You're a smart guy, and smart guys should be put in positions that need smart guys, and even if you join the Navy, I'm sure I won't let you be a mere combatant."
"If an employee wants to be promoted, there are generally two ways."
"The first way is to take out his immediate supervisor and replace him."
"Another way is to assist his direct supervisor, and when his boss is promoted, then the position left by his boss will naturally be his."
"And Mr. Chloe, what kind of employee are you?"
"And in your eyes, what kind of boss am I?"
After saying this, Hai Lan was ready to turn around and leave: "After you figure it out, you can come to the naval base to find me." ”
"Wait a minute."
Chloe's body suddenly stood up straight, imitating the appearance of a naval soldier and saluted Hai Lan: "Recruit Chloe, salute Major Hai Lan!" ”
If it were an ordinary naval lieutenant, Chloe might still struggle and hesitate.
But this Major Hailan's background is not ordinary, just like Chloe said to Colonel Hill before: if this great opportunity can be missed, I am afraid that this life will be like this.
Hailan was also a little surprised by Chloe's reaction.
He thought that Chloe would think about it all night, but he didn't expect to choose Toucheng so soon.
Hailan smiled and replied to Chloe with a simple military salute: "That's why I like smart people the most!" ”
……
Let's turn the clock back to the present.
A passenger ship returning to the East China Sea from the Great Voyage was attacked by pirates as it approached an island in Victorian territory.
The vast majority of passenger ships without important personnel are generally not escorted by warships of the Navy Headquarters, but have their own armed forces.
After all, there is basically no need to worry about pirate attacks in the windless zone.
And if you are unfortunate enough to encounter a sea king, only a general at the level of a lieutenant general in the headquarters can fight against it.
Obviously, it was impossible for the vice admiral of the Navy Headquarters to escort an ordinary passenger ship.
After crossing the windless zone, some ships will continue to sail alone; The other part of the ships that belong to the local area will be escorted by the warships of the branch.
But this time, the passenger ship called the navy in Rogue Town for help: "This is a passenger ship returning to the Kingdom of Victoria from the Great Voyage, we have been attacked by dozens of pirate ships, no matter which naval base you are, please come to our aid!" ”
"A passenger ship of the Kingdom of Victoria? Wasn't there supposed to be a warship of the 8th branch to escort the entourage? ”
"It should have been like this, but there are more enemies than us, the accompanying warships have been routed, we have no way to escape, help..."
Not knowing what was going on over there, the phone bug wilted after leaving a horrified expression.
"It's a trap!"
Second Lieutenant Wagner was the first to make a judgment: "Colonel Roy is the Emperor of the Soil with 20 warships, how can the passenger ships in his domain need our support?" ”
Colonel Hill commented lightly: "This is a conspirator. ”
Wagner scratched his hair embarrassedly: "Eh, I've only heard of conspiracy, but what is it?" ”
As he wiped his rifle, Bermel explained, "Yang Mou is a move that is directly based on the situation and put on the surface. ”
"Now we've received a call for help from a passenger ship."
"If we go, we will take the initiative to walk into the enemy's trap."
"If we don't go, we're giving up the reputation that Major Hailan has built up so hard in Rogue Town."
"No matter which step we take, this is what the opponent is happy to see, and this is Yangmou."
"It's so poisonous!" Wagner clenched his fists and almost slammed them on the table, but the catch of Chief Hailan out of the corner of his eye made him control his movements.
"Major, shall we go or not?"
"Go, of course!"
Hailan said without hesitation: "If you are reluctant to use yourself as bait, how can you be able to catch a big fish at your target?" ”
Wagner worried: "But there are only more than 40 of us in total, and the other party has 3,000 pirates!" ”
"Wagner, you know best whether my training with you these days has been effective."
"It's just 3,000 trash fish, what are you afraid of them doing?"
"You go and assemble everyone!"
"Yes!"
Walking outside, looking at the naval soldiers on the playground whose temperament had obviously changed dramatically, Hailan nodded with satisfaction.
Although these current soldiers have not mastered the six forms, their overall personal quality has already improved a lot.
This rate of progress is absolutely unseen on Earth.
Hailan suddenly shouted loudly: "Let me ask you, are the little pirates in the waters around Rogue Town no longer your opponents at all?" ”
The Navy soldiers shouted in unison: "Yes!" ”
"Then do you dare to join me in a crusade against the so-called pirate fleet?"
"Dare!"
"Good!"
"Everybody now board and go! We can't afford to keep Colonel Hill waiting too long! ”
Led by Lieutenant Bermel and Second Lieutenant Wagner, the sailors officially set off from the Rog Town Naval Base!
