Chapter 539 Hijacking
Zhongtian-Beikun.

The captain, Yu Yinliang, stood in the cab, looking at the sea.

Zhongtian-Beikun rides the wind and waves and keeps moving forward.

As the captain, Yu Yinliang's treatment is not bad, especially when there is a transportation task, although it takes one to three months for a round trip, the bonus is very generous.

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

The crew of the entire Zhongtian-Beikun is [-]. As the most advanced container carrier, the Zhongtian-Beikun is not a big one, but it can carry [-] standard containers at a time. It's not too small.

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

Taking rotation into account, the crew was eventually increased to twenty.

It is unimaginable to put twenty crew members in an old-fashioned ship, but with the development of technology, all this is no longer a problem.

Some ships even only have five or six crew members.

but……

Don't think that if there is less demand for crew, the crew will lose their jobs.If you have this kind of thinking, you are too naive. Ten years ago and ten years later, the number of ships used for shipping around the world has increased several times, and the demand for crew members has become even greater.

This trip started from Shencheng, passed through the Mediterranean Sea, and then entered the Black Sea.

When returning, return according to the route when coming.

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

"After this trip, I had a good vacation, and I can take a good rest for half a year." Yu Yinliang thought, now that he passes through the Gulf of Aden, he can return to Shencheng and his home in more than ten days.

When going out, the most important thing is actually safety.

The Gulf of Aden used to be an uneasy place for them, but with the establishment of the escort fleet, some of their merchant ships finally no longer have to be afraid of the Gulf of Aden.

When the motherland is strong, they benefit accordingly.

Looking at the surface of the sea, it is very calm, and the waves are only about half a meter high. For the sea, it can be called calm.

"Contact the escort formation and send us our position."

This is a necessary procedure. Even though there has been no news of pirates for a long time, years of experience have made Yu Yinliang habitual to make these actions.

The captain spoke, and the crew naturally followed suit.

Soon, they got in touch with the escort formation, but since the escort warship had just escorted a large container carrier away and was cruising back, it would take at least an hour before it could provide escort.

Yu Yinliang was used to this result.

Escort warships, in fact, they have been cruising according to the route, not specially escorting a certain ship.Only when they met each other and happened to be on the way, they would slow down and sail forward in tandem with the transport ship.

In this way, to keep up with the warship can only be said to be luck.

Like now, Yu Yinliang's luck is actually pretty good. After at least an hour, the frigate will catch up with him, stay side by side with him, and finally one after another before leaving the Gulf of Aden.

There are too many merchant ships passing by here, and it is impossible for the frigates in the formation to take care of them face-to-face.

"Slow down our speed and try to meet them in half an hour." Yu Yinliang gave the order, half an hour late is nothing, safety is the most important thing.

Walking with the frigate, the powerful firepower will not make pirates foolish.

"Yes, Captain."

The crew members under him nodded, and then let the transport ship start to slow down.

Just after the transport ship decelerated and was only moving forward at a speed of eight knots, they didn't notice that a fast-moving ship appeared on the distant sea and was rushing towards it aggressively.

There was no radar system on the transport ship, but the ship was spotted when it appeared two nautical miles away.

"Pirates, are pirates."

"Grass, you can't be so unlucky, how could you meet pirates?"

"Accelerate, hurry up."

"Wang Ping, take the ax and the helmet."

"Contact the frigate, hurry up."

Suddenly, the Zhongtian-Beikun became a mess, and the crew members were in a mess.

Pirates, this is a Somali pirate, well-known.

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

There are some people who used their lives to prove these rumors. How many people were locked up for one or two years and were tortured before being redeemed. People have already changed their shape.

Now, it was their turn.

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

In the telescope, it can be seen that this is an offshore vessel, but its speed is astonishing, almost flying out of the sea, and it can be seen at a glance that it has been refitted.

Especially in the binoculars, you can see some sturdy men on the ship, all of them are carrying guns.And this sea ship not only has cannons on it, but also several Vulcan cannons, which can be called powerful.

These characteristics are not enough to explain all this?
"Quick, take a photo and send it to the escort fleet." Yu Yinliang was afraid, but he still responded.

In the first time, a communication channel was established with the escort warship.

"I am the captain of the XX fleet of the escort formation, Zhongtian-Beikun, and I will report your situation." A deep voice came from the communication channel.

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

"We are sailing at full speed, and we expect to arrive at your place in 10 to [-] minutes. For your lives, please cooperate with the pirates, and we will rescue you as soon as possible," the captain said again.

For such a long time, there was no use for warships at all, not even a single pirate.

Now that the pirates have finally been discovered, and they are so close to him, how could the captain miss this opportunity?
A frigate that was still cruising before suddenly increased its speed to the maximum and sailed forward.On the frigate, it was busy, connecting to satellites, obtaining materials, and then feeding them back to the frigate.

Soon, they confirmed that what Yu Yinliang said was true, that a HNA ship had approached the Zhongtian-Beikun.

The alarm sounded.

All the naval soldiers first assembled and then entered various positions.

Facing the coming battle, none of them was afraid, but became looking forward to it.God knows what they miss every day is that they can fight with real guns.

Pirates are far inferior to the navies of various countries, but pirates have been criss-crossing the Gulf of Aden for so many years. Naturally, they have their advantages, and they can also achieve the purpose of training.

The excited soldiers were so efficient that they put the frigate into combat even 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 increased to [-] knots, compared with these speedboats, the gap is too big.

The speedboat raced around the transport ship, and soon the rope was shot at one of the landing points.Like the most experienced pirates, some burly men raised their guns to control the rope, while some held their guns back to climb the rope.

According to the nature of the pirates, they will be slower to climb here.

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

The crew members in the ship, holding all kinds of cold weapons, shrank to the position of the driver's cab.

Facing the pirates with all kinds of guns in their hands, they also know how powerless their current resistance is.But the fear of pirates made them take up arms again.

"Drop your arms, we just want a ransom."

A pirate held such a sign written in Chinese and raised it against the cab.

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

The crew members inside were scared out of their wits, and when the lock was beaten to the point of losing its function, their faces turned even paler.

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

None of the crew inside dared to move around, the black muzzles let them know that these pirates were really in a hurry and would open fire, killing the one who dared to stand up, and played the role of killing chickens and monkeys.

Who will be this one?
No one was willing, so the crew members inside were all holding weapons, but none of them dared to rush forward. They could only watch helplessly as the door was kicked open.

One of the pirates pointed at the floor with the muzzle of a gun. The crew members were pale, but they followed suit one by one, throwing away the cold weapons in their hands, and then raised their hands.

Yu Yinliang felt bitter. He was thinking of finding 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 they even prepared paper with Chinese characters written on them.It seems that they have predicted what they will do, whether to flee or submit.

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

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

Everything is done without muddling, like a veteran.

It seems that they are also aware of the existence of the escort formation and know a quick victory.

With this kind of efficiency, any delay is a joke, people don't even say a word to you, if they are tied up, they will be taken away.

It takes only 5 minutes from boarding to disembarkation.

Fortunately, they didn't shoot directly, but simply took people away.It can be seen that they want money rather than life. If the ransom can be paid, they will not commit murder.

It just so happened that Zhongtian Shipping Company is a responsible and wealthy company, and the ransom can be delivered quickly, and they can return to China in two or three days at most.Even this Zhongtian-Bei Kun will be replaced by someone who will return to China.

Therefore, they didn't look very good about being tied up, but they didn't face the kind of panic facing life and death. They cooperated very well, and they didn't want to cause trouble and anger each other.

Not to mention being killed, even a severe beating is enough for them.

　The second update, please recommend a ticket, good night!
