On the vast vast sea level, the three warships moved forward quickly in the shape of "公" shape.

In the command room, Su Qiuyue was commanding the information team members of the "Coconut City" to issue encryption instructions one after another.

Two missile destroyers full of ammunition, one comprehensive supply ship, and more than 800 combat personnel were supplied with freshwater supply in accordance with the Long-Term Aircraft Standard.

Two carrier-based helicopters are on standby at any time on the tarmac.

Standing behind Su Qiyue's side and watching him send out instructions with a steady order, Li Dong couldn't help but sigh secretly.

When Li Dong heard the name of this escort commander for the first time, he didn't take Su Qiuyue seriously.

Of course he did not doubt Su Qiuyue's ability to command operations.

After all, if someone can get an honorary title and several first-class merits, there is absolutely nothing to say about the ability.

But Li Dong has always believed in one thing, that is, "there is a specialty in skills."

This escort formation commander is from the army after all.

Even if he had ever had a maritime mission, he would do it occasionally.

Can he have any experience in fighting at sea, especially tactical strategies for destroying pirates?

Such doubts still existed in Li Dong's heart until he set out.

However, after the three days of sailing, Li Dong's thoughts in his heart were changing unconsciously.

Through close observation, he found that Commander Su was really not unfamiliar with naval battles.

It can even be said that his theoretical level is probably even better than himself.

In fact, this escort operation was determined at the last moment.

In terms of confidentiality, it is certainly impeccable.

However, for the combatants of the three warships, they have a lot of work after leaving.

Many things are not something you can prepare by just preparing.

For example, before learning that he was going to participate in the escort mission, everyone said they were going to fight pirates.

But in fact, the statement of fighting pirates is inaccurate.

The main task of the escort fleet is to escort.

Protecting the safety of ships ships transported by humanitarian materials by international organizations such as the World Food Programme is the first priority.

In combat command, this commander Su was very accurate in positioning the plan.

From the beginning of the first day of sailing, the operation style of each stage of the escort operation was clarified.

Basically, the commander has made very detailed arrangements for the pirates of the scale and the combat methods they adopt.

Based on Li Dong's experience, of course, he can see the feasibility and rationality of his action plan at a glance.

Ask yourself, if you were the commander yourself, Li Dong felt it would be difficult to be as ease as Su Qiuyue.

In addition, in terms of some details, Commander Su has also taken into consideration.

For example, when setting off, this person specifically instructed the comprehensive supply ship to remind them whether they would buy all the daily necessities.

Among them, towels, soap, laundry detergent, toilet paper, etc., of course, we know how to prepare more comprehensive supply ships.

But they didn't bring enough super soaps, medical supplies and other supplies.

If Su Qiyue hadn't reminded her in time, the next ten days of voyage might not have been smooth sailing.

While Li Dong was secretly sighing, Su Qiuyue had already completed the issuance of a series of instructions.

Turning to look at Li Dong, Su Qiuyue smiled and said, "Captain Li, do you have anything to add?"

Li Dong is not only the captain of the "Coconut City", but also the deputy commander of this escort operation.

In addition, the other party was one of the most experienced captains in the navy, so Su Qiuyue still attached great importance to his opinions.

After hearing Su Qiyue’s question, Li Dong whispered and waved his hands repeatedly: “No, no! Commander, please give the order, Lao Zhang and I will implement it firmly!”

The Lao Zhang mentioned by Li Dong was naturally led by Zhang Xiao, the captain of the "Jiangcheng".

Zhang Xiaoling is older than Li Dong, but he is no more than 43 years old.

Among the dozens of captains of the Navy's main battleship, these two were very young.

As for the captain of the comprehensive supply ship "Dangshan Lake", Zhao Junkai, is the oldest.

The old comrades are more Zhou Xiang considering issues in all aspects, and it is the only way to be responsible for logistics supply.

Seeing that Li Dong did not give any advice, Su Qiuyue would not be able to force others to do so.

With his observation, of course, he can see the changes in Li Dong's attitude towards himself in the past two days.

Obviously, the work I did in the early stage was still recognized by this deputy.

After staying in the command cabin for a while, Li Dong smiled and suggested, "Commander Su, let's go to the terrace for a walk. This endless land cannot be seen, and I don't know how long it will take to sail. It's too boring to stay here all the time."

Su Qiyue certainly would not reject Li Dong's kindness.

He smiled and nodded, "Okay, then let's go to the deck to take a look."

The two chief and deputy commanders came out of the command cabin, and the crew members responsible for the guarding outside the door immediately made way and saluted the two.

Li Dong reached out and made a gesture of inviting Su Qiuyue to walk in front.

One came to the deck, one in front and one after another, and saw the sailor whispering something to his soldiers.

Seeing Su Qiyue and Li Dong arrived, the captain sailor quickly paused the instructions to his subordinates and came forward.

The sailors on our destroyers are officers who manage deck soldiers and repair soldiers.

Generally, they have the rank of lieutenant or captain.

When warships sail at sea, they often encounter non-maintenance problems.

Having an experienced sailor can solve many things.

Looking at the captain sailor leader, Su Qiuyue asked with concern: "How is it? What are you facing?"

"Report to the commander-in-chief, no!"

The sailor quickly explained, "It's just some regular repair and maintenance issues."

After hearing this, Su Qiuyue nodded with relief.

If we talk about the latest missile destroyer of our army, our performance is currently the most advanced.

Looking at the world's warships of the same type are also on the platoon.

This problem happened after just two or three days of sailing, and the probability is really not high.

Li Dong also trusts himself as his old subordinate.

After Su Qiuyue asked, he also encouraged him a few words.

Of course, the chief sailor would not affect the chief and deputy commander's talk on the deck and soon led his subordinates to leave the deck.

Watching the group leave, Su Qiuyue took a step forward, stroked her hands on the railing of the battleship, and let the sea breeze blow on her face.

Seeing his heroic appearance, Li Dong couldn't help but be amazed.

The impression Su Qiuyue left on him before was nothing more than the labels of "highly educated talents", "command and technology equally", and "youngest colonel".

This is the first time Li Dong has seen Su Qiyue like this.

Taking a deep breath, Su Qiuyue suddenly started to speak.

"Captain Li, you should have some understanding of the situation of Somali and the pirate groups?"

Li Dong immediately responded: "In the past, I just knew a rough idea. Before I set off, I made up for it."

"The four most famous Pirates of the Somali are: the Puntland Guard, the National Coast Volunteer Guard, Merka, and the Somali Sailor..."

When Li Dong said the name of "Somali Sailor", Su Qiyue's mouth raised the corner.

He is very familiar with this pirate group.

When he took Chengcai, Xu Sanduo, Wu Liuyi and others to carry out rescue missions, his main opponent was this pirate group.

Su Qiuyue nodded and said, "Captain Li is right. The Gulf of Aden is indeed the most famous pirate group."

Li Dong nodded and replied, "Yes, I heard that the most powerful pirate regiment is the Somali Sailor."

"The thing we need to be most careful about in this escort operation is it?"

After hearing Li Dong's rebuttal question, Su Qiuyue shook her head straightforwardly.

Li Dong didn't expect that Commander Su would be so direct, and he was a little surprised at that time.

Su Qiyue turned to look at him and explained calmly: "The Somali Sailors are indeed the most powerful pirate regiment, and that's right."

"Its range of activities is as far as 200 nautical miles away from the Somali coastline. From the distance, it is almost entering the waters of other countries."

After pausing, Su Qiuyue continued: "But because they are numerous and well-equipped, they are the most conspicuous ones."

"Many times, as soon as the pirates of the Samarie Sailors left their nest, the nearby merchant ships were already alert enough."
