Sounds like the French are stirred up like a nest of hornets, Captain. Rear Admiral Whitworth is even more worked up, if you can believe it, and I'll bet you can. Your orders are to report to him immediately, answer the contrary, your peril, the King, etc.
{The flavor text and targeted opposing Nation will be based upon the Nation you belong to}.
Mission Notes
Report to the Rear Admiral in the designated port for your Nation, which is where the next part of the mission will take place.
You will enter your captain's quarters and discuss your strategy with naval officers that were previously under your command. You have three options, but the one that is quickest by far (if you have a level-appropriate ship) is the last one.
If you pick your own suggestion in the dialogue, you spawn broadside-to-broadside with six heavier ships - usually "Oliphant" Indiamans. Your fleet is made out of "Defiant" variants - Sleeks and Heavies. Funnily enough, you're not actually outnumbered - it's a straight up 6v6 fight.
If you're captaining a "Gallant" Naval Frigate (like you should be at this level) you can just sail right into the enemy, put your toggles on, and start focusing the ships down one at a time. It is not a challenge.
Mission Objectives
