for your reference, when I was on your shoes, I did expedition 5 and 21 if I recall correctly, and 11 or 2 when 4th fleet unlocked

I didn't sortie often, and never try to clear certain map in one-go (and almost never did construction), I'll just wait patiently when repairing, loss morale, etc.. that could pretty much cover my sorties cost with the help of dialy/weekly quests, expeditions and natural regen

well, take your time if you still struggling on 2-4, back then I was there for like 2 weeks, and that can be good opportunity to level your ships too
