Building madman

Chapter 657 This is not a drill!

The Red Sea is located between the Arabian Sea and the Mediterranean, with the Gulf of Aden in the south and the Suez Canal in the north, with an average depth of 600 meters and a maximum depth of 2,500 meters.

Due to the narrow waterways in most sea areas, ships need to slow down and slow down here. In addition, the surrounding residents are living hard, poverty and wars have forced most of them to ruin. Due to the terrain restrictions, this place is called a paradise for pirates and the most dangerous home planet. Of the waterway.

The Home Star Alliance has a fleet headed by North America here, responsible for escorting cargo ships of the community of interest across the Red Sea.

In 2001, China Marine Department had not yet risen and was unable to join the escort team. Even if the combined parent-star fleet was here, China Merchant Marine did not dare to arrive here, but completed the transshipment business in the Malacca Strait.

For example, when Huaxia exports rare earths, the Huaxia freighter arrives at a port in the Maliu Strait and transfers the rare earths to the freighters in the'North Yue' alliance, paying the other party a high transportation fee and entrusting the other party to ship the rare earths to the countries around the Mediterranean.

The same is true for imports.

The Zheng He fleet, to put it bluntly, is a transoceanic foreign trade led by China's private enterprises.

Even if Huo Dun, KS and other companies join in, even if Holden dares to point at the North American chief in swearing, the two sides are still hostile in the economic field.

Before the Horton consortium completed the'cosmetics' deal, the fleet encountered pirates and the North American fleet would help. Now that Horton emptied the cargo and the fleet crossed the Red Sea, the North American fleet had a fluke if it did not secretly make trips, let alone come to help. convoy.

Therefore, the two Apaches remaining in the fleet hurriedly left with fuel before entering the Gulf of Aden.

As for Holden’s guarantee of votes and the safety of the fleet in Europe...

Just listen, this old man is "too young", has he ever experienced "war chaos"?

Before encountering the second batch of pirates, Horton was frightened and cursed.

After leaving Somalia this time and entering the Gulf of Aden, when he saw pirates appear again and the lineup of the opponent, Horton was almost scared of a heart attack...

More than a dozen retired warships blocked the channel ahead, and on the dams on both sides like scorched earth, countless'refugees' suddenly appeared...

Even more frightening is the roar of artillery fire from the rear of the fleet, it seems that these pirates want to rely on their own ships to block their way.

At this moment, Horton seemed to find the main reason why Zheng He's fleet was repeatedly attacked by pirates.

The boats are filled with retail goods, and what these poor people lack is daily necessities, clothing, shoes and hats, food and drink...

Nearly a thousand cargo ships, billions of goods, this is more attractive than the gold and silver jewelry thrown into the robber's den...

Wow...

Several speedboats approached by pirate warships ahead, and the'refugees' on both sides of the dams jumped into the sea like dumplings, leading to Zheng He's fleet...

Oooo~oooo~~~

Unlike the previous electronic notifications, today's sirens are particularly dull and rapid.

"All employees, please note that the fleet enters first level alert. This time it is not a drill, not a drill, not a drill!"

"Please quickly wear work clothes and protective gear, and each team leader and team leader will conduct safety inspections and report their respective conditions."

"Weapon bay access is open..."

"The use of the escape boat is open..."

"The collective entry into combat preparation..."

"Important things are said three times, all employees please pay attention..."

Holden was in a circle for a long time, and seemed to think of something, "Ge, why didn't you have such an alarm before?"

"prior to?"

It was a fake pirate before!

Ge Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, "Oh, although we have conducted anti-piracy exercises, Tianwei is not proficient in maritime operations. I encountered pirates before and I was nervous and forgot."

"..."

"Fortunately, I have encountered a lot and everyone will be familiar with it."

Ge Xiaotian put on his work clothes and glanced at Holden and others who were also neatly dressed. "You are advanced in the safety cabin. I believe Tianwei can handle them."

"Ge, I have contacted the North American fleet, but the warships in the Arabian Sea have not returned to the first two batches of pirates. The warships in the Red Sea and the Mediterranean are under repair and it will take time."

"Not in a hurry."

Although the combined parent star fleet is dominated by North America, and Zheng He's fleet encounters pirates, the opponent will definitely have to delay the time, but it is not uncomfortable.

Ge Xiaotian didn't care, and took out two small biubiu handmade by the big boss...

Pop...

Horton was taken aback, put on his earmuffs and pulled down his goggles, and immediately discovered...

"This... this biubiu is not live ammunition?"

"Narcotic bomb, I am a private company after all, and I have to abide by the law."

"..."

Rumbling...

At this moment, on the battleship next to the treasure ship, the trebuchet swung and projected a football-sized object into the sky.

The ball burst in the air, making a sound far beyond the explosion...

On the sea below, a dozen of the fastest swimming'refugees' rolled their eyes and fainted...

Almost at the same time, the robotic arm on a nearby ship shook, dropped a metal net, and quickly moved upward. A dozen refugees who had fallen into a coma and had not yet sunk into the sea were quickly salvaged and put in the fish. In the cabin...

Dozens of brawny men swarmed...

Immediately afterwards, three spheres lifted into the sky, bursting into a dazzling light even when wearing goggles...

Many pirates who wanted to get closer to the ship stopped shooting, wailing and covering their eyes...

More than a dozen brawny men jumped along the ropes to snatch each other’s speedboat...

"???"

Just as Holden was stunned, there was a broadcast of exchanges in several languages ​​in the sky:

"Solemn warning, this is the NT fleet. We have every right to implement NT standards when attacked, send captured criminals to the polar regions and underground, and provide us with free labor for N years until we pay off our losses."

"The polar fish farm is located at 65 degrees north latitude, and the temperature is lower than..."

"The underground mine is located 1,300 meters below the ground in South Africa, with an annual temperature of 42 degrees..."

"Compared to the intensity of labor, I believe that this is your paradise..."

"Say important things three times..."

Suddenly...

No matter how the broadcast is summoned, the pirates will not meet these routinely before suffering major setbacks, and boldly pull the trigger directly...

When the waters near the fleet were emptied, Tianwei controlled the rhythm of the battle, and the well-dressed Tianyu crew appeared one after another, taking their own speedboats to the planned ships that would be robbed by pirates.

Ge Xiaotian secretly contacted Nong Qijiu.

In this attack, the enemy was not the main force to snatch large iron knots, but the real pirates attracted by spreading the cargo of Zheng He's fleet.

Although Tiancheng wants cheap labor, it has no eyes. If it cannot guarantee its own safety, it may use heat and cause a lot of casualties.

Boss Ge is a kind person.

Therefore, it is necessary for Nong Qijiu to control the pirate offensive to facilitate his capture...

Holden and others are a little fascinated by Tiancheng's operations.

In particular, the iron-clad ships distributed in the front, middle, and rear began to drop smoke bombs. The alarm also prompts to wear a mask to prevent coma...

"Ge, what are we doing?"
