Chapter 173
He was telling the truth.

The previous few voyages were basically smooth, but this time it was a rare accident, and encountered a fierce ocean storm.

In the face of the horrific anger of nature, the warship is as fragile as a piece of paper, so it can only choose to avoid it temporarily and take a detour, which was delayed for more than ten days.

On the way here, Nuo Xia felt uneasy, and was already prepared to bear Taotu's anger. Fortunately, it seems that the immediate boss and his wife's reaction is much better than he expected.

"It's good to know how hard I have been during this time."

Taotu snorted softly, "One person is doing the work of two people, and my legs are almost broken... For this combat mission, I will stay on the warship to rest later, and you will take care of it."

"No problem, just leave it to me."

Nuo Xia took over without hesitation, and asked again, "By the way, who are we going to deal with this time?"

When he first arrived, he was arrested as a young man, and he hadn't figured out what happened at all. He actually needed Taotu to lead three warships to go out in person.

"You'll understand after reading it yourself."

Momotu took out a copy from the document beside the bed and threw it over.

"White Pigeon Pirates, Explosive Pirates..."

After quickly browsing the relevant information, Nuo Xia frowned immediately, and also noticed something strange, "Two pirate groups that have clearly entered the great route, unexpectedly returned to the West Sea at the same time, and launched an attack on an unknown small branch? "

He has only been to Xihai once, and everything here is quite unfamiliar, but he is quite familiar with the 329 branch that was attacked.

That's right.

Branch 329 is based in Gul Island, the hometown of Zhizi and Tina.

And the Colonel Bako who sent the signal for help was the slippery and sophisticated guy he had dealt with twice while wearing Momotu's body.

In his impression, the total strength of this branch was less than a thousand people, and there were not even a few decent standard warships.

That Colonel Bako's behavior is also quite lazy, basically he just spends his days counting, how could he suddenly provoke such a powerful enemy?
"Probably seeking revenge."

Taotu saw his confusion, leaned back slightly, put his legs on Nuo Xia's shoulders, stretched his slim and soft body, and said lazily:
"You may not be very clear about the situation of Colonel Bako. In the past six months, this guy has been in the limelight, and his reputation is so loud that it has spread throughout the West Sea."

"Huh? How do you say it?"

Nuo Xia subconsciously sniffed it, but didn't smell any peculiar smell. It seemed that Tao Tutu had just bathed and changed clothes before departure. He immediately felt relieved and said puzzledly, "In my impression, that guy is not a good admiral. .”

Taotu noticed Nuo Xia's small movements, kicked his chest angrily, and then threw another document on the bedside directly to his face while the latter laughed.

"Turn it yourself."

"...Brigadier General, I think a man as good as me should be cherished as a treasure, and not spoiled all day long like you."

Tao Tutu didn't bother to talk to him, so she raised her two long, round, white legs and placed them comfortably on his shoulders.

Damn.

The first rank of the official ranks crushes people to death, so I will let you spoil and bully me during the day...

When night comes.

Humph, it's time for me to turn the offensive!

As a man, the anger that has accumulated for more than ten days and has not been released, once it explodes, it is quite terrifying!
He thought so angrily in his heart, but his eyes searched carefully in the file, and it only took more than ten seconds to find the file records related to Colonel Bako.

"On July 1511, 7 in the lunar calendar, Bako, the colonel of the 31 branch base, met the Storm Pirates, and personally beheaded the captain who offered a reward of 329 million Baileys, the head of Ross, the Storm Pirates, and the heart of the Storm Pirates. Chaotic, easily defeated."

"On August 8, thousands of fishermen in several fishing villages along the coast of Musi Island were slaughtered by the Bacardi pirates. There were only a few survivors. Colonel Bako rushed to the news and was furious when he saw the situation. When the pirates were about to leave, stop them and kill the pirate captain who offered a reward of 21 million Baileys, the 'Shadow Hunter' Bacardi..."

"On September 9, the captain of the Porcupine Pirates with a bounty of 23 million Baileys and the captain of the Grass Carp Pirates with a bounty of 3000 million Baileys were beheaded by the sword of Colonel Bako on the same day..."

"October 10th..."

The content after that is roughly the same.

Nuo Xia made a rough calculation.

In just half a year or so, this Colonel Bako defeated more than a dozen large pirate groups, and the captains of these pirate groups were basically pirates with rewards above tens of millions.

There are as many as six people with a bounty of more than [-] million Baileys.

It's outrageous... What kind of concept is this?
If the colonel of Marin Fando in the headquarters, or even the colonel of the G branch of the Great Airway, did such deeds, Nuo Xia would not be too surprised.

But this is Bakow!

Regardless of the bad impression the other party left on him, this guy is just a colonel of a small branch of the Four Seas. If he is transferred back to the headquarters, he will be directly demoted to three ranks, which is equivalent to a captain!

When will you have such strength?

It's really three days away from a scholar, you should look at each other with admiration... No, go to the countryside and do as the Romans do, in this world we should change the term.

Well, how should the words be changed?
When you easily knocked Wang Lufei and Liu Suolong away with a stick, you should be prepared to be killed by the opponent when you meet again next time?
"No wonder you said that he has been in the limelight, and his reputation has spread throughout the West Sea."

Nuo Xia put down the file, raised her head to look at Taotu, and said with a tusk:

"To achieve such an astonishing record, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to continue to serve as a colonel in a small branch. With so many military achievements added up, it should be promoted by one or two ranks."

"Of course."

Tao Tutu didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and began to use his toes to playfully swirl on both sides of Nuo Xia's neck, making the latter itchy:
"As a matter of fact, his name has already been heard by the higher-ups of the headquarters. According to the meaning of the higher-ups, at the end of this month at most, he will be promoted to three consecutive ranks, and he will be transferred to our first rank with the rank of colonel in the headquarters. branch base."

"As a result, the station was attacked and retaliated by pirates before it was transferred?"

Nuo Xia activated the effect of "Armor of Thorns" calmly, "Based on what you said just now, Brigadier General, he is being sought by someone for revenge."

"Well, the reason is probably because I didn't run away like this. I only reasoned and guessed it on the way before departure."

A faint itchiness came from between the toes, Taotu frowned slightly, looked at Nuo Xia's neck, feeling a little confused, but continued to explain:
"In the pirate group he defeated last month, there was a cadre named Black Pigeon Alkin, and the captain of the White Pigeon Pirates who attacked this time, White Pigeon Durkin, is likely to have a close blood relationship , there is a high probability that it is a brother or something... I'm not sure, hiss..."

She was so itchy that she finally gave up teasing Nuo Xia and retracted her legs.

"It is reasonable to speculate that only in this way can it make sense why these two pirate groups that have entered the great route suddenly turned around and returned home regardless of everything."

Nuo Xia saw this scene in his eyes, and said lightly, "It's just that they didn't think clearly about the consequences for those who dare to attack our naval branch base."

His tone was calm.

It's like talking about something trivial.

White Pigeon Durkin, the girl who killed the girl, one offered a reward of 6600 million Baileys, and the other offered a reward of 7000 million Baileys.

Not to mention putting it in the West Sea, even in the first half of the great route, it is definitely a big pirate who can occupy one side. It is reasonable that the famous Colonel Bako can't deal with it.

But it's a pity.

But at this time, I came to Xihai.

------

Gul Island, where the 329 branch is located, is not too far from the first branch of the West Sea.

Under the full speed of the warship, only ten hours later, Nuo Xia and Taotu, who came to the bow, saw the outline of Gul Island in the distance through the snow.

The shape of the coastline is so familiar and friendly, Nuo Xia inexplicably recalled the time when he came to this island with the identity of Momotu, went to Zhizi's house, and persuaded her to return to the headquarters to report her duties.

At that time, I was just an ordinary recruit who hadn't made a name for herself. In front of influential figures like Tao Tu Qing Pheasant, I had no name, so I could only look up and admire him.

And now.

Everything is different now.

He is about to enter the threshold of twenty years old, and now he is the leader of the younger generation of the headquarters, the youngest major general in the history of the navy, and the dignified deputy base chief of the first branch of the West Sea.

Even Tao Tu, who was unattainable at the time, has already been captured and become his lover.

It's not what it used to be...

Nuo Xia felt emotional, and turned his gaze from the coastline of Gull Island to the military port on the north side, and as expected, he found a large number of pirates who were launching a fierce attack on the branch base.

Judging from the situation, the Pirates are clearly in the absolute upper hand at this moment.

The defensive forts outside the port had been completely destroyed, and the navy, which had lost the advantage of their home field firepower, could only hide in the fortress, making the final defense with difficulty.

"An hour or two later, I'm afraid the base will be completely breached."

Taotu sighed softly, thanking herself for leaving in time, she glanced at the distance, then turned around, walked towards the cabin, and left a faint sentence:
"Come on according to the previous division of labor. I'll go back and rest. I'll leave it to you to deal with the pirates."

"Go."

Nuo Xia nodded slightly.

This scene fell into the eyes of the surrounding marines, and immediately made them look at each other in blank dismay, feeling a little surprised in their hearts.

The front is about to enter the battlefield soon. Facing the two pirates returning from the great sea route, Major General Gion actually acted as a shopkeeper at such a critical moment, leaving all the work to the new arrival. Nuo Xia deputy base chief?
"The strength of Major Admiral Gion is obvious to all. As long as she makes a move, the two pirate groups must be defeated and surrendered."

Someone couldn't help muttering, "I just don't know how strong Major General Nuo Xia is, and whether he can reach this level..."

In terms of appearance, Major General Nuo Xia really has nothing to say, so that they can't have any resentment against the deputy base chief who has been late for a long time, but this is a battlefield, no matter how good-looking his face is, it can't be eaten...

obviously.

Due to the fact that news dissemination in this world is relatively closed after all, a considerable number of people did not pay attention to the great war that took place in the Kingdom of Alabasta a few months ago.

And even if some people read the report at the beginning, they didn't connect Major General Nuo Xia in front of them with that big event.

Otherwise, at this moment, they would just be like those direct subordinates who followed Nuo Xia from the headquarters, silently mourning for those unlucky pirates in their hearts...

"Major General, we have already entered the shelling range!"

At the bow, a lieutenant colonel in charge of coordinating the firepower of the fort suddenly turned his head and asked Nuo Xia eagerly:

"Hurry up and give the order, just wait for your word, we will launch the shelling immediately, and provide fire support to the brothers of the 329 branch!"

"No need to fire."

Nuo Xia estimated the distance, shook her head slightly, and said softly:
"Close-to-hand combat has already begun over there, and the landing point of the shells cannot be precisely controlled. If a large-scale shelling is launched rashly, it will help the pirates blow up the fortifications and have a counterproductive effect."

"Then...then what should we do, Major General?"

"Continue to sail at full speed. What you will have to do later is to surround the perimeter of the military port and don't let any fish slip through the net."

Nuo Xia stood on the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back, the cloak of justice behind him fluttered in the wind, his tone was flat, but with a trace of undeniable majesty:

"As for other things, just leave it to me."

Eh?
Not only the lieutenant colonel, but also the surrounding sailors were stunned when they heard the words.

Before they came back to their senses, they only felt the light in front of them flicker suddenly.

And the next moment, Nuo Xia's figure had already disappeared in place, stepped on moon steps, soared into the sky, and shot towards the distance!

Swish!Swish!
His speed was extremely fast, and he crossed hundreds of meters of sea area almost in the blink of an eye, getting farther and farther in the sight of many navies, and went straight to the military port several kilometers away.

Major General Nuo Xia, what is this for?
While being amazed at Nuo Xia Yuebu's accomplishments, the soldiers at the Xihai No. [-] branch base also felt a wave of surprise and uncertainty.

No way... Thinking of the order Nuo Xia left just now, many people suddenly seemed to realize something, and couldn't help but widen their eyes.

——Major General Nuo Xia, are you planning to deal with all the pirates on the shore alone before the warship arrives at the shore?
It's probably too exaggerated!
The enemies on the opposite side are not ordinary pirates in the West Sea, but they are all strong men who have the confidence to step into the great voyage, and the captain's bounty is more than [-] million Baileys!

Meanwhile, on the other side.

The pirates, who were fighting fiercely with the defenders, became more and more excited. From the corner of their eyes, they also noticed the figure flying from the sky, and the three white warships approaching at full speed in the distance.

They didn't care about this, but many pirates grinned, showing bloodthirsty and ferocious smiles.

After fighting for so long, the navy reinforcements finally arrived?

We will start adding updates tomorrow, and try to keep [-] words updated every day until the end of the month. Please supervise and supervise!
