Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 591

The Gulf of Aden international escort mission is not compulsory. As long as countries around the world have the ability and ideas, they can apply to the United Nations to go to the Gulf of Aden waters to maintain the safety of the waterways.

For those countries that have no intention of expanding maritime interests, such actions are meaningless. As for those who want to expand maritime rights and national influence, participating in such escort actions naturally has their own interests.

Indeed, the ocean-going navy is still a modern warship, and it takes several months to go out. The cost of this is not a small amount. If it is placed in some small countries, it can almost declare bankruptcy in a few months.

But for big countries, they don't care about the money spent at all, and pay more attention to the substantive benefits that this brings.As far as China is concerned, with the Gulf of Aden escort, the Chinese Navy can unscrupulously train the ocean-going navy in a rotating state of actual combat. The itinerary of tens of thousands of nautical miles, plus the almost actual combat escort, is practical for the Chinese Navy. The effect is definitely more effective than any exercise.

From a strategic perspective, China takes the initiative to undertake international humanitarian obligations and enhance China's international influence.Moreover, you can also visit neighboring countries in the Indian Ocean to promote political, economic, cultural, and military exchanges between China and the countries around the Indian Ocean.

The same is true for Russia. Putin is ambitious to expand Russia's global interests.Today, both China and Russia have relative military cooperation with Somalia. Even without the Gulf of Aden escort formation, the two countries can use the opportunity of cooperating with the Somali navy to maintain the same strategic goals.

As for other countries.That purpose is more complicated, because it is in the same strategic purpose.It has also increased its targeting to Somalia and has an international escort mission.Their surveillance of the Somali navy appears to be fair, and there is no need to find any excuses.

In particular, NATO and Japan, the US ally in the Asia-Pacific region, do not want to slip away from their hands the opportunity that could have been able to monitor Somalia in a fair manner.

As the Secretary-General of the United Nations, he was also quite helpless at this time, because Li Lan's relationship was originally just a normal escort mission, but now it has become a hot potato.Regardless of whether you let it go, you will offend people. As a politician, this is the most difficult choice. But then again, politicians pay attention to interests. As long as the benefits are met, the choice is not difficult.

So now Ban Ki-moon wants to figure out which side gives the most benefits.And if he can properly reach a tacit understanding of certain interests with the other party, his job will be very good.

"The Gulf of Aden escort mission was originally to ensure the safety of ships and personnel of the countries navigating the waters, and to protect the safety of ships carrying humanitarian supplies by the World Food Program and other world organizations. The threat is mainly from the original Somali pirates. If Somalia can really eliminate everything. Pirates, then the continuity of this mission does not exist." At this point, Ban Ki-moon changed his voice and said: "But whether it can be ended now. This matter needs to be considered for a long time."

Faced with Ban Ki-moon, Li Lan did not follow the other party's words.And said his thoughts: "I also agree that a certain period of observation is required, but. I believe that my navy can accomplish all this well, and we also have land-based fighters and early warning aircraft to assist, whether in efficiency or In terms of convenience, none of those warships from afar can compare."

Speaking of this, Li Lan's meaning is already obvious. Somalia's current navy is sufficient for the mission of the United Nations escort fleet.However, for veteran politicians like Ban Ki-moon, the method of telling the truth will not be very effective, and other methods must be combined: "Moreover, with so many warships gathered in the Gulf of Aden waters, I am afraid that some will appear in the south in the future. Friction, after all, even if our relationship with NATO is eased, the true relationship is still in the opposing camp. If friction arises because of this matter, it is probably not a good thing for the stability of the world."

The threat is definitely a threat, not a direct threat to NATO, a direct threat to the Secretary-General of the United Nations.This is Li Lan’s idea. It is straightforward, because this matter does not need to threaten NATO at all. As long as Ban Ki-moon chooses to let go, then NATO will not be able to change the decisions made by the UN even if NATO has great influence. In the United Nations, there are still China and Russia, and NATO is still not talking.

Without pirates, Somalia can be fully responsible even if there is an observation period. Li Lan has already made it clear enough, and the deterrence of his words is definitely higher than that of China and Russia.Since the Somali war ended, the Somali navy has become a standout in the Indian Ocean. The Indian navy has gone for decades, and it hasn't even matched Somalia's time for several years.Somalia, with two 80,000-ton aircraft carriers, is not an exaggeration to call it the first navy of the Indian Ocean, and in terms of the advanced nature and quantity of surface power, Somalia can completely rank second.

Li Lan, who has mastered this force, said such words, it is naturally full of weight. The United States, which has already suffered a huge loss, even if the navy is deployed, dare not completely ignore Li Lan's threat.Let alone Ban Ki-moon, his mission is to promote peace, not to create disputes and contradictions.

"This matter, I very much hope that President Li can restrain himself a little. I believe that no matter how big interests are involved in this world, there will be a successful settlement day. Therefore, there is really no need to generate any military friction. It can be used peacefully. The means naturally use peaceful means." This threat is obviously very effective for Ban Ki-moon.

"A peaceful settlement is not difficult, but one thing is that I cannot allow so many warships to monitor my warships at my doorstep every day. I will not make any concessions in this matter. Of course, if the United States allows me Send warships to cruise on the east and west coasts of the United States, then I can ignore their behavior." Li Lan thought for a while and said: "I heard that there are also some small-scale pirates in the Caribbean Sea. Why not do this, I send the navy. Where does the fleet go to maintain peace, what about this proposal?"

Li Lan has already made everything clear, and Ban Ki-moon has only one choice. If you don't cancel the escort mission in the Gulf of Aden, then he won't just stay silent like this.Li Lan is not purely threatening, if this matter is not resolved, then he will really do something like this.

In the cargo hold of Global Star, in a dark corner, three Chinese are sitting together in a triangle, and in the center of the three of them, there is a half-person-height cube wooden box.

There was almost no sound isolation between here and the outside. They didn’t know what was happening outside at all. When the armed men started to move, the cell phone on one of the men’s waist suddenly rang. When Wang Xiaochuan was puzzled, he picked it up. Look, his face changed suddenly, and he said to the other two companions: "Strange, a stranger sent a message, saying that the CIA has been eyeing us and they are now trying to secretly control the ship."

"Let's follow it now."

"It's useless. The other party uses satellite encrypted signals. Unless it is connected to the central computer at the headquarters, it cannot be tracked at all."

At this moment, Wang Xiaochuan's cell phone rang again. He picked up the cell phone and took a look: Don't hesitate, we are not enemies, and now we must unite to deal with the CIA. There are nearly 60 people on the other side, all well-trained gunmen.Some of them have already come towards you, please be prepared.

"Look!" After showing the message on the phone to the other two companions, Wang Xiaochuan took out his pistol directly from his waist and said: "This matter can be trusted or not, and whether the opponent is an enemy. Yes, we must be vigilant. Notify those outside and be vigilant."

...

In the room in the medium-sized housing area, Qiao Ann has put on all his equipment, and the team responsible for communications and electronic equipment immediately reported: "The news has been sent out, but the CIA has carried out electromagnetic interference on the electronic equipment. We only Can use the ultrashort wave frequency band for short-range communication, and there is a risk of being monitored."

"Then try not to communicate as much as possible. We are divided into four groups. The fourth group is responsible for keeping in touch with the military and controlling the monitoring equipment on this ship as much as possible to provide us with intelligence. I will bring one to form the first group. Four groups form the other two groups. The six of us have only one purpose. Before the military arrives, we cannot let the CIA's wishful thinking succeed."

...

At this moment, all the bridges of the Global Star cruise ship have been taken down by the armed men. The armed men who quickly boarded the cruise ship were divided into teams and began to follow the steps of the previous exercise.The engine room, power room, and monitoring room are all controlled one by one.

And the ten armed men on the ship, when three were separated to control the wheelhouse, the remaining seven men walked directly toward the bottom of the cabin, and the seven men killed when they saw anyone along the way, without any mercy at all. Meaning, start without hesitation.They only have one purpose, and that is to get to the cargo hold position on the bottom of the cabin as soon as possible, and that is their ultimate goal of this operation.

However, they didn't know it. They had already planned the action, but they followed a tail. Now even their prey knew about it and they had a sense of vigilance.

The battle broke out when they arrived at the bottom of the cabin. They were notified. The Chinese guarding the last floor of the cabin did not hesitate after seeing armed men decisively appearing at the end of the corridor. They were the first armed men to appear in the corridor of the cargo ship. The bullet passed directly through his head.

The gun battle was launched directly in this narrow space.
