Chapter 537 Hijacking

Zhongtian-Beikun.

Captain Yu Minliang stood in the cab and looked on the sea.

Zhongtian-Bei Kun rides the wind and waves and keeps moving forward.

As the captain, Yu Munliang's treatment is naturally not bad, especially when there is a transportation task. Although it takes one to three months to travel, the bonus is very generous.

In the eyes of ordinary people, he is a successful person.

The entire Zhongtian-Beikun crew was 20. As the first container transport ship, Zhongtian-Beikun was not big, but the capacity of the capacity that could carry 8,000 standard containers at one time was no longer small.

To control such a transport ship, it is actually enough to have eight people.

Considering the rotation, the crew eventually increased to twenty.

Twenty crew members were unimaginable in old-fashioned ships, but with the development of technology, all this no longer became a trouble.

There are some ships, even equipped with only five or six crew members.

but……

Don’t think that if the demand for crew members becomes less, the crew will be unemployed. If you have this idea, it would be too naive. Ten years ago and ten years later, today, the number of ships used for sea transportation around the world has increased several times, and the desire for crew members has become increasingly greater.

This trip starts from the deep city, passes through the Mediterranean, and then enters the Black Sea.

When returning, it returns according to the route from the time it came.

Whether it is back and forth, it is full of goods. When it goes, it is the product, and when it returns, it is the raw material. Huaxia is a large manufacturing manufacturer, and its products are exported all over the world, and the demand for raw materials is also very huge.

"I've had a good holiday after running this trip and I can rest for half a year." Yu Yinliang thought that after passing through the Gulf of Aden, I can return to Shenzhen and return home in more than ten days.

When you go out, the most important thing is safety.

In the past, the Gulf of Aden was a not peaceful place for them, but with the establishment of the escort fleet, their merchant ships finally no longer had to fear the Gulf of Aden.

The motherland becomes stronger and they benefit.

Looking at the sea surface, it was very calm. The waves were only about half a meter aroused, and for the sea, it could be called calm.

"Contact the escort formation and send our location."

This is a necessary procedure. Even if there has been no news of pirates for a long time, many years of experience have allowed Yu Muliang to do these actions.

The captain spoke, and the crew members naturally did as they did.

Soon, contact was made with the escort formation, but because the escort warship had just escorted a large container transport ship and was cruising back, it would take at least an hour to provide escort.

Yu Muliang has become accustomed to this result.

In fact, they are cruising on the route, not specifically escorting a certain ship. Only when they meet each other and are just on the way will they slow down and sail forward with the transport ship one after another.

In this way, to keep up with the warship, it can only be said to be a chance.

Like now, Yu Muji's luck is actually good. After at least an hour, the frigate will catch up with it, side by side with it, and finally leave the Gulf of Aden.

There are too many merchant ships passing here, and the formation of frigates cannot take care of them.

"Slow down our speed and try to meet them in half an hour." Yu Muji issued an order, slowing down by half an hour is nothing, safety is the most important thing.

Walking with frigates, powerful firepower will not make pirates stupid.

"Yes, Captain."

The crew of his subordinate nodded and then made the transport ship start to slow down.

Just after the transport ship was slowing down and was moving forward at only eight knots, they did not notice that a fast-moving ship appeared on the distant sea surface, pounced on it fiercely.

There was no radar system on the transport ship, but this sea ship was discovered when it appeared two nautical miles.

"Pirates are pirates."

"Cao, you can't be so unlucky, how could you meet a pirate?"

“Accelerate, fast.”

"Wang Ping, take an axe and a helmet."

"Contact the frigate, hurry up."

Suddenly, the Zhongtian-Beikun was in chaos, and the crew members were in chaos.

Pirate, this is a Somali pirate, and it is famous.

They have only heard of it before, but have never encountered it. According to rumors, it seems that the pirates in Somalia are not very friendly. Killing people and throwing bodies in the sea is common, and they will kill people without ransom.

Some people have used their lives to confirm these rumors. How many people have been imprisoned for one or two years, and after suffering all the torture, they have been redeemed. People have become disfigured.

Now, it's their turn.

Due to various reasons, it is difficult for Somali pirates to buy warships or the like. They use sea boats to make certain modifications and then rely on speedboats to attack.

In the telescope, you can see that this ship is an offshore ship, but its speed is amazing, almost flying away from the sea. You can tell at a glance that it has been modified.

Especially in the telescope, you can see some strong men on the ship, all of whom are carrying guns. And this sea ship has not only cannons, but also several Vulcan cannons, which can be said to be powerful in firepower.

These characteristics are not enough to explain all this?

"Quick, take a photo and send it to the escort fleet." Yu Munliang was afraid, but he still responded.

At the first moment, a communication channel was established with the escort warship.

"I am the captain of the xx formation of the escort formation. Zhongtian-Beikun, report your situation." A thick voice came from the communication channel of the Lizhi Communication Channel.

"Pirates, they are Somali pirates, they are one mile away from me." Yu Yinliang took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"We are entering full speed and are expected to arrive at you in twenty minutes. For your life, please cooperate with the pirates and we will launch rescue to you as soon as possible." The captain said again.

For such a long time, warships had no place to use their power, and there were not even pirates fighting.

Now that I finally discovered the pirate and was so close to me, how could the captain miss this opportunity?

A frigate that was still in cruise was suddenly accelerated, increasing its speed to the maximum, and sailing forward. The frigate was busy, connecting satellites, obtaining materials, and then feeding them back to the frigate.

Soon, they confirmed that what Yu Muliang said was true, and that an HNA was approaching the Zhongtian-Beikun.

The alarm sounded.

All the naval soldiers gathered first and then entered various posts.

Faced with the upcoming battle, none of them were afraid, but became expectant. God knew that what they missed every day was that they could fight with real guns and ammunition.

Pirates are far from comparable to the navies of various countries. However, pirates have their own advantages over the Gulf of Aden for so many years, and they can still achieve the purpose of training.

The excited soldiers were so efficient that they allowed the frigate to enter a combat state more than usual.

…………

The sea ship approached quickly and then released four speedboats from the sea ship. Their speed was even more abnormal, at least one-third faster than the sea ship.

Although the speed of the transport ship has been accelerated to fifteen knots, the gap is too big compared to these speedboats.

The speedboat ran around the transport ship and soon shot a rope at one of the landing points. Like the most experienced pirates, some strong men raised their guns to control the rope, while others climbed up the rope with their guns on their backs.

According to the pirates' urinary nature, it will be slower for them to climb here.

But these pirates are not ordinary pirates. This rope is in their hands, just like the plain, and in the blink of an eye, it has already boarded the ship.

The crew members in the boat, holding all kinds of cold weapons, shrank to the cab.

Faced with pirates with all kinds of guns in their hands, they also knew how powerless they were in resistance now. But their fear of pirates made them pick up weapons.

"Let the weapon down, we just want the ransom."

A pirate held up a sign with Chinese words and raised it up to the cab.

More and more pirates entered the transport ship, and they quickly included the cab. Without waiting for the people inside to figure it out, they shot at the lock, smashing the keys to pieces.

The crew members inside were so scared that they were invisible. When the lock was beaten to the point where they lost their effect, their faces turned pale.

A big foot kicked the door away, and then the pirates rushed forward.

None of the crew members inside dared to move around, and the black guns made them know that these pirates were really anxious and would open fire and kill the one who dared to show off, which would serve as a warning to the monkey.

Who would be this one?

No one wanted to, so everyone in the crew was holding weapons, but none of them dared to pounce on them. They could only watch the door kicked open.

One of the pirates pointed at the floor with a muzzle. The crew members were pale, but they still did it one by one, throwing away the cold weapons in their hands and then lifting their hands up.

Yu Yinliang felt distressed. He had thought about finding some excuses to delay them. When the frigate arrived, the crisis would naturally be resolved.

Who would have thought that these pirates were too efficient, and even the words with Chinese characters were ready. It seemed that they had already thought about what they would do, whether to escape or surrender.

When these pirates saw no one resisted, they immediately rushed up.

One by one, they tied up their hands, then drove them to the speedboat and headed towards the sea boat.

Everything is unstoppable, like a veteran.

It seems that they also realize the existence of the escort formation and know how to fight quickly.

With this efficiency, any delay is a joke. If someone doesn’t even say anything to you, he will take him away if he tied up.

It only takes five minutes from boarding the ship to leaving the ship.

Fortunately, they did not shoot directly, but simply took the people away. It can be seen that they are asking for money but not life. If the ransom can be achieved, they will not attack.

It just so happened that Zhongtian Shipping Company is a company with responsibility and wealth. The ransom can be delivered soon. They can return to China in only two or three days at most. Even if it is Zhongtian-Beikun, someone will take over the return of China.

Therefore, they have a bad expression when they are tied up, but they are not the kind of fear of life and death. They are very cooperative. They don’t want to cause trouble and anger each other.

Not to mention being killed, even a beaten blow is enough for them.
