Chapter 533

Zhongtian beikun.

The captain Yu yinliang stood in the cab, his eyes on the sea.

Zhongtian beikun sailed through the wind and waves and kept moving forward.

As a captain, Yu yinliang's treatment is not bad, especially when there is a transportation task. Although it takes one to three months to get down, the bonus is very rich.

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

The crew of the whole Zhongtian beikun is 20. As the first container carrier, Zhongtian beikun is not big, but it can carry 8000 standard containers at a time, which is not small.

In fact, eight people are enough to control such a transport ship.

Considering rotation, the crew eventually increased to 20.

With the development of science and technology, all this is no longer a problem.

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

But

Don't think that if the demand for the crew is less, the crew will lose their jobs. It would be naive to have such a thought. Ten years ago and ten years later, the number of ships used for shipping around the world has increased several times, and the desire for crew has become even greater.

This trip is from the deep city, through the Mediterranean Sea, and then into the Black Sea.

When we return, we follow the route we came to.

Whether it's back and forth, it's full of cargo. When it goes, it's the product; when it comes back, it's the raw material. Huaxia is a big manufacturer, and its products are exported to the world. The demand for raw materials is also very huge.

"After this trip, I have a good holiday, and I can have a good rest for half a year." Yu yinliang thought that after passing through the Gulf of Aden, he would be able to return to Shencheng and his home in more than ten days.

The most important thing about going out is safety.

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

When the motherland is strong, they benefit from it.

Looking at the sea, it was very calm. The tide was only half a meter. For the sea, it was calm.

"Contact convoy and send us our location."

This is a necessary procedure. Even if there has been no news of pirates for a long time, Yu yinliang is still allowed to make these actions in his habit after years of experience.

The captain spoke, and his crew followed suit.

Soon, they got in touch with the convoy formation. However, as the convoy warship just escorted a large container transport ship out and was cruising back, it would take at least an hour to provide escort.

Yu yinliang is used to this result.

Escort warships, in fact, they have been cruising along the route, not for a particular ship. Only when they met each other and were on the way, would they slow down and sail forward with the transporter.

In this way, to keep up with the warships is only a chance.

For example, Yu yinliang's luck is still good. In at least an hour, the frigate will catch up with him, side by side, and finally leave the Gulf of Aden.

There are too many merchant ships passing through here. It is impossible for the frigates in formation to take care of them.

"Slow us down and try to meet them in half an hour." Yu yinliang issued an order. It's nothing to slow down for an hour and a half. Safety is the most important thing.

Along with the frigate, the powerful firepower will not have the pirate to be stupid.

"Yes, captain."

The crew nodded and let the carrier slow down.

Just after the transport ship slowed down and was moving forward at a speed of only eight knots, they did not find that a fast-moving ship appeared on the distant sea, rushing towards it fiercely.

There was no radar system on board, but the ship was found two nautical miles away.

"Pirates, pirates."

"Grass, it's not so bad luck. How can you meet pirates?"

"Speed up, speed up."

"Wang Ping, take the axe and helmet."

"Contact the frigate. Come on."

After a while, the Zhongtian beikun was in a mess, and the crew members were in a mess.

Pirates, this is a famous Somali pirate.

They just heard about it before, but they never met it. In the rumor, it seems that the pirates in Somalia are not very friendly. It is common to kill people and throw their bodies in the sea. They will kill people without ransom.

Some people have confirmed these rumors with their own lives. How many people have been locked up for one or two years and are only redeemed after suffering a lot. People have changed their shape.

Now, it's their turn.

Because of various reasons, it is very difficult for Somali pirates to buy warships and so on. Most of them are refitted by sea vessels and then attacked by speedboats.In the telescope, you can see that this is an offshore ship, but its speed is amazing, almost flying off the sea, you can see that it is refitted.

Especially in the telescope, we can see that there are some brave men on board, all of them carrying guns. And this sea ship, which has not only guns, but also a few Vulcan guns, can be called powerful firepower.

These characteristics are not enough to explain all this?

"Quick, take pictures and send them to the convoy." Yu yinliang was afraid, but he responded.

For the first time, a communication channel was established with the frigate.

"I'm the captain of escort formation XX, Zhongtian beikun. I'm reporting to you." In the communication channel, came out a thick voice.

"Pirates, Somali pirates, they're still a mile away from me." Yu yinliang took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"We are going into full speed and are expected to arrive at you in 20 minutes. For your life, please cooperate with the pirates, and we will rescue you in the first time. " Said the captain.

In such a long time, warships have no use at all, not even a rival pirates.

Now it is finally found that the pirates are still so close to themselves, how can the captain miss this opportunity?

A frigate, which was still on cruise before, suddenly increased its speed to its maximum and sailed forward. On the frigate, one is busy, connecting satellites, obtaining materials, and then feeding back to the frigate.

Soon, they confirmed that Yu yinliang's statement was true, and that one of the HNA ships was approaching the Zhongtian beikun.

The alarm went off.

All the navy soldiers, first assembled, and then entered the various posts.

In the face of the coming battle, none of them was afraid, but they became expectant. Every day you miss them, you can know that they are shooting.

Pirates are far from comparable to the navies of other countries. But pirates have been in the Gulf of Aden for so many years. Naturally, they can achieve the purpose of training.

Excited soldiers, high efficiency, more than usual to let the frigate into combat state.

…………

The ship approached quickly, and then four speedboats were released from the ship. Their speed was abnormal, and they were able to get up at least a third faster than the sea boat.

Although the speed of transport ships has been increased to 15 knots, there is a big gap compared with these speedboats.

The speedboat ran around the transporter, and soon the rope was shot from one of the landing points. Like the most experienced pirates, some brave men hold their guns to control the rope, while others hold their guns on their backs to climb the rope.

According to the piss of pirates, they will climb here slowly.

But these pirates, not ordinary pirates, this rope is in their hands, peacefully, in the blink of an eye has been boarded the ship.

The crew of the ship, with all kinds of cold weapons, shrank to the position of the cab.

Facing the pirates who have all kinds of guns in their hands, they also know how powerless their resistance is now. But the fear of Pirates made them take up arms.

"Put down your weapons. We just want ransom."

One of the pirates held up a sign in Chinese and held it up against the cab.

More and more pirates entered the transport ship, and they soon included the cab. Without waiting for the people inside to figure it out, there was a burst of shooting at the lock, beating the key to pieces.

The crew inside, scared out of their wits, turned pale when the lock was knocked out of action.

One big foot kicks the gate away, and the pirates rush in.

None of the crew inside dare to move around and have a black muzzle. Let them know that these pirates are really in a hurry. They will open fire and kill the one who dares to take the lead, playing a role of killing the chicken and warning the monkey.

Who would be this one?

No one wanted to, so all the crew inside were armed, but none of them dared to go up. They could only watch the door be kicked open.

One of the pirates pointed at the floor with the muzzle of his gun. The crew were pale, but they did as they were. They threw away their cold weapons and raised their hands.

Yu yinliang felt bitter. Before that, he wanted to find some excuse to delay them. When the frigate arrived, the crisis would naturally be resolved.

Who would have thought that the efficiency of these pirates was so high that even the paper with Chinese characters was ready. It seems to have been expected what they would do, to escape or to yield.

Seeing that there was no resistance, the pirates rushed forward immediately.

One by one, they tied up their hands, and then they were rushed to the speedboat and headed for the sea boat.

Everything is no muddle, like an old hand.It seems that they are also aware of the existence of the convoy formation and know how to make a quick decision.

Under this kind of efficiency, any delay is a joke. People don't even say a word to you. If you tie someone up, you take it away.

It's only five minutes from boarding to leaving.

Fortunately, instead of shooting directly, they simply took people away. It can be seen that they want money but not their lives. If the ransom is in place, they will not poison their hands.

As it happens, Zhongtian shipping company is a responsible company with money. The ransom will be delivered soon. They can go back to China in two or three days at most. Even the Zhongtian beikun will be replaced by someone to return to China.

Therefore, they are not very good at being tied up, but they are not that kind of fear of life and death. They cooperate with each other very well. They don't want to cause trouble and make each other angry.

It's enough for them not to mention being killed, but to beat them up.
