Start inheriting a mercenary group

Pirates are rampant there and the situation is grim. But I believe that with our strength and wisdom, we will be able to complete the mission! "

"Boss, don't worry!" Soap stepped forward and patted Lu Ting on the shoulder. "With us here, those pirates won't be able to get close to the merchant ship!"

"Yes! Let them see how powerful we are!" Yuri also echoed.

Lu Ting nodded to show his satisfaction. He glanced at everyone and said.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's start the pre-mission briefing and equipment inspection." Lu Ting said, leading everyone to the meeting room nearby.

In the conference room, Lu Ting introduced the mission situation and possible difficulties in detail.

He particularly emphasized the cunning and cruelty of pirates, reminding everyone to be vigilant at all times. At the same time, he also made a clear division of labor for everyone.

"Sea Wolf, you will be responsible for leading the diving team to conduct underwater reconnaissance and defense." Lu Ting looked at Sea Wolf and said, "Your experience and skills will be the key to our mission this time."

"Understood!" Sea Wolf nodded, indicating that he accepted the task.

Next, everyone began to check their equipment. Everyone carefully checked their weapons and equipment to ensure that they could play the greatest role at the critical moment.

Lu Ting also walked up to each person and personally checked whether their equipment was complete and intact.

"Soap, is your sniper rifle ready?" Lu Ting asked.

"We're ready! Boss, don't worry!" Soap said, patting his sniper rifle.

"Ghost, Frost, how are your diving equipment?" Lu Ting turned to the two female mercenaries and asked.

"Everything is fine!" Ghost and Frost answered in unison. They are the diving experts in the team and will be responsible for underwater reconnaissance and defense in this mission.

After checking everyone's equipment, Lu Ting nodded with satisfaction. He knew that this team was his most capable assistant and partner, and they would face the upcoming challenges together.

"Okay, everyone, get ready to go!" Lu Ting gave an order, and everyone stood up and walked towards the dock.

Their faces were full of determination and confidence, as if they had seen the dawn of victory.

At the dock, a frigate was ready. Lu Ting led everyone on board the ship and sailed to the distant sea. They would use their strength and wisdom to escort the merchant ships and safeguard the peace and tranquility of the ocean.

The sea is sparkling, and the sun shines through the clouds onto the vast ocean.

A huge escort fleet slowly sailed out of the port and headed towards the distant ocean.

The members of the Immortal Armed Mercenary Corps stood on the deck of the frigate, looking ahead, determination and expectation written all over their faces.

"We're finally setting off!" Soap patted Yuri beside him excitedly, "We must perform well in this mission and impress the boss!"

"Of course!" Yuri replied with a smile, "With the leader here, what do we have to fear?"

Not far away, Lu Ting was standing on the bridge, staring at the front with deep eyes. He was wearing a neat military uniform, and the sea breeze behind him made the corners of his clothes rustle, and he exuded a majestic temperament.

"Boss, everything is ready!" Captain Qian stepped forward and reported to Lu Ting, "We can set off at any time!"

Lu Ting nodded, and his eyes swept over every member of the team around him. They were all elites that he had carefully selected, and each of them had unique skills and strengths. He believed that with them, this mission would be successfully completed.

"Let's go!" Lu Ting gave an order, and the frigate started slowly and headed towards the designated sea area.

The sea was rough, and the waves hit the hull, making a "rustling" sound.

The members of the Immortal Armed Forces stood on the deck, feeling the breeze and the waves. They knew that this mission was full of unknowns and challenges, but they had no fear or retreat.

The atmosphere in the fleet command center was tense yet orderly. Various instruments made subtle humming sounds, and real-time monitoring images of the sea area were displayed on the large screen.

Lu Ting stood in the center, scanning every detail on the screen with his sharp eyes. His fingers tapped lightly on the edge of the podium, as if he was thinking about something.

"Report to the commander!" An intelligence officer hurried in with a document in his hand. "We just intercepted a pirate communication. They are planning to attack a merchant fleet."

Lu Ting raised his eyebrows and took the document and quickly read it. The intelligence recorded in detail the number of pirate ships, weapons and equipment, and the estimated time of the attack. He took a deep breath and his eyes became firm.

"It seems that these pirates are targeting our escort mission." Lu Ting said in a deep voice, "We must immediately formulate a defense strategy to ensure the safety of the merchant fleet."

He quickly summoned his mercenaries, and an emergency meeting was held in the command center. Soap, Yuri, Xiaoqiang and others sat around the conference table, listening to Lu Ting's analysis with serious expressions.

"According to intelligence, the pirate gang will launch an attack tonight." Lu Ting pointed to the sea map on the screen and said, "Their target is likely to be this merchant fleet. This is the area where we expect the exchange of fire."

He paused, his eyes swept across everyone's face, "We need to set up ambushes and traps here to give these pirates a head-on blow."

"No problem, boss!" Soap patted his chest and said, "Leave it to us. We will make sure those pirates never come back!"

Yuri and Xiaoqiang also nodded in agreement. They began to discuss the defense strategy in detail, and everyone put forward their own suggestions and ideas.

Lu Ting nodded with satisfaction. He knew that his team was the best. With them, this escort mission would be successfully completed.

Just then, a communicator came in hurriedly, "Commander, I just received an urgent message that the merchant fleet has set off ahead of schedule!"

"What?" Lu Ting was surprised. "How long in advance?"

"About two hours," the operator replied.

Lu Ting frowned, which meant that their defense strategy needed to be readjusted. He quickly ordered everyone to return to their respective positions and be prepared to respond in advance.

The command center became busy again, and everyone was busy and nervous.

Lu Ting stood in front of the command desk, looking firmly at the sea map on the screen. He knew that this mission was full of unknowns and challenges, but he was confident that he could lead the team to overcome all difficulties.

As night fell, only the faint light of the stars provided some illumination on the dark sea.

The Immortal Armed escort fleet slowly moved forward in this sea area, and every ship in the fleet remained on high alert.

"Attention, attention!" On the bridge, Lu Ting's voice spread throughout the ship through the radio, "According to intelligence, the pirate group may launch an attack tonight. Everyone, be alert. If you find anything unusual, report it immediately!"

On the bridge, Lu Ting, Soap, Yuri and others stood in front of the radar screen, staring at every light spot on the screen. However, under this calm, there was a turbulent undercurrent. The mercenaries of the Immortal Armed Forces were carrying out a dangerous mission in this sea area - luring the pirate group deep into the ambush area.

Lu Ting stood on the deck of the frigate, looking at the sea in the distance, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

Standing next to him was Sea Wolf, a new member of the team's sea combat and diving expert. The two stood side by side, with a group of elite mercenaries behind them, each of them looking serious and ready for battle.

"The pirates have discovered the merchant ship, and they are heading this way." Sea Wolf whispered, with a hint of nervousness in his voice.

Lu Ting nodded. He took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly: "According to the plan, let them walk into our trap step by step."

Suddenly, a faint light appeared on the radar screen, approaching the fleet at a very fast speed.

"Target found!" Soap shouted, "Five kilometers away, very fast!"

"It's a pirate ship!" Yuri confirmed, "Prepare for battle!"

The atmosphere on the bridge suddenly became tense, and everyone quickly entered combat mode. Lu Ting held the intercom tightly in his hand, ready to issue orders at any time.

Not long after, the shadows of several pirate ships appeared on the sea in the distance.

They came through the waves at a very fast speed, obviously heading for the frigate of Lu Ting's team. Lu Ting and Sea Wolf looked at each other, and a hint of coldness flashed in their eyes.

"Everyone take your positions and get ready for battle!" Lu Ting ordered loudly.

The mercenaries immediately took action, picked up their weapons and entered combat mode.

Everyone's face was filled with determination and resoluteness. They knew that the upcoming battle would be extremely brutal, but they did not retreat at all.

The pirate ship was getting closer and closer. Lu Ting and Sea Wolf led the mercenaries to hide in the darkness under the deck, waiting for the best opportunity.

They waited quietly, like wild beasts waiting for their prey, full of strength.

Finally, the pirate ship entered the ambush area. Lu Ting and Sea Wolf smiled at each other, knowing that the plan was half successful. Now, they just had to wait for the pirates to fall into the trap.

The pirates on the pirate ship apparently did not notice the hidden danger. They shouted excitedly and waved their weapons.

The pirate ships were getting closer and closer, and their hideous hulls and the figures of people on board could already be seen. Suddenly, the pirate ships opened fire, and the shells exploded around the fleet, splashing huge water.

"Fight back!" Lu Ting ordered loudly.

The fleet immediately opened fire in return, with artillery fire exploding around the pirate ships and suppressing their offensive.

As the distance got closer, the black spots gradually turned into several dilapidated pirate ships. The pirate ships were hung with skull flags, and a murderous atmosphere was blowing in their faces.

Lu Ting quickly commanded the fleet to make tactical deployments and ordered the diving team to go into the water for reconnaissance.

Sea Wolf led Ghost, Frost and several other divers to quickly put on diving equipment and jump into the water.

They shuttled through the water like nimble fish and swam towards the pirate ship.

On the sea, artillery fire roared and bullets flew. With their superb shooting skills and tactical coordination, the members of the Immortal Armed Forces defeated the pirates.

The pirate ship seemed not to have expected the Immortal Armed Forces to react so quickly and violently, and began to dodge the artillery fire in panic.

"Haha, these pirates are too weak!" Soap laughed.

"Don't be careless." Lu Ting said seriously, "This is just their tentative attack. The real battle has not yet begun."

Sure enough, the pirates did not give up, but began to organize a more fierce offensive. They split into two groups, one to attract the fleet's firepower, and the other to try to break through the fleet's defense line.

"What are they trying to do?" Yuri frowned.

"No matter what they want to do, we can't let them succeed." Lu Ting said calmly, "Adjust the formation and prepare for the battle!"

They came through the waves at an extremely fast speed, obviously wanting to take down Lu Ting's team's frigate in one fell swoop.

Lu Ting took a deep breath and then ordered loudly: "Everyone, let them see how powerful we are!"

As the pirate ship got closer, a fierce burst of artillery fire suddenly broke out from Lu Ting's team's frigate.

The shells whizzed towards the pirate ship and the explosion was deafening.

The pirates were caught off guard by the sudden attack and fled screaming.

But Lu Ting's team did not stop their attack. They poured out artillery fire like a storm, leaving the pirate ship riddled with holes.

Amid the fierce gunfire, the pirate ship gradually lost its ability to resist.

Some pirates tried to jump into the sea to escape, but were shot dead one by one by the elite members of Lu Ting's team. The wreckage of the pirate ship and the bodies of the pirates were floating on the sea, and the scene was very tragic.

However, at this moment, a fierce artillery fire suddenly broke out from the frigate, and the shells whistled towards the pirate ship, and the explosion was deafening.

However, the mercenaries hiding in the dark did not give them a chance to escape. They rushed out from the dark like ghosts and launched a fierce attack on the pirates.

Sea Wolf led several elite members including Soap and Yuri to jump onto the pirate ship. They fought fiercely with the pirates on the ship, with bullets flying, swords flashing, and blood and flesh flying everywhere.

The pirate ship was escaping, the sea was rough, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the sparkling sea, reflecting the warships and pirate ships that were chasing fiercely.

"We must not let any brother be left alone!" Lu Ting stood on the bridge, looking firmly at the fleeing pirate ship in front of him.

His voice was transmitted throughout the entire battleship via the radio, allowing every member of the Immortal Armed Forces to hear it clearly.

Soap, Yuri and others held their weapons tightly, ready to fight any possible battle at any time.

The warship's artillery fire continued to bombard the pirate ship in front, but the pirates did not seem to intend to surrender. They steered the ship flexibly, rushing left and right on the sea, trying to escape the pursuit.

"These guys are quite good at running." Xiao Qiang said sarcastically, and the machine gun in his hand continued to spray flames to suppress the pirate ship. (End of this chapter)
