Chapter 225: The Battle of Makino Upgrade

6 October 2000, 3 p.m., on the main island of the East Maluku archipelago, at the junction of the Arafura Sea and the Banda Sea.

This day is destined to go down in the annals of the history of the cause of humane attention for all mankind, because on this day, it will set off the clarion call for the last wave of global slavery in human history.

After that, perhaps there will still be sporadic slavery in some dark corners of the earth, such as in some relatively primitive African tribes and Oceania tribes, but those are not places where they intersect with the external globalization industrial chain, and outsiders can't control and are not easy to find.

But the organized, transnational, and globalized forms of slave production were doomed to disappear.

The savior Gu Kun is about to make his debut.

Regarding the difficulty of the battle, Gu Kun did not have the slightest turmoil and worry in his heart,

He has a Kidd-class submarine and a Type 052 destroyer, even if the "Zhu Sen" yacht is too expensive to rush up and suppress it with Aster anti-aircraft missiles and 730 close-in defense gun fire, the destroyer alone can solve those slave owners.

......

In the bridge headquarters room of the "Yonghua", Captain Ma Jiahui paced back and forth in front of the chart table, observing the situation from time to time. This afternoon's clearing mission will mainly be carried out by this boat.

The officer in charge of the observation came over and reported: "Captain, there is East Maluku Island in front, and there are still 25 nautical miles to go. However, several small boats have been spotted on the surface of the sea, and they are turning, probably to get back to the island to ventilate the news, and we have intercepted their radio signals. ”

In places where there is no wireless communication network coverage, long-distance communication can only be transmitted by walkie-talkies and radios. It is impossible for a walkie-talkie to talk to a distance of more than ten or twenty nautical miles, and the radio station has a much longer communication distance, but it can be intercepted.

Isn't it easy to intercept the radio station of a civilian ship with the communication equipment on the 052 destroyer?

"The close-in defense artillery warned them to surrender immediately, stop communications, and approach the island at full speed with all their ships ready for battle. ”

With the warning of the close defense artillery, the fate of those small fish and shrimp outside naturally does not need to be repeated, as long as they surrender obediently, they can keep people without leaving the boat.

On the deck, helicopters and amphibious armored vehicles also immediately began to make final preparations - when Gu Kun bought the ship, of course, the helicopter that came with it was also bought together, and two multi-purpose armored vehicles were also bought separately.

After all, the destroyer is not an amphibious assault ship, and it is impossible to transport too many amphibious cargo, but two armored vehicles are still not troublesome. Considering the problem of draft, destroyers generally cannot be within a kilometer of the shore in the beach terrain, so the vehicle must be equipped with amphibious multi-purpose.

The original intention of buying these things was not to deal with pirates or fisherman slave owners, but that Gu Kun has always been cautious in temperament, and likes to be cunning rabbits, so he always has to leave a "If something happens to the boat, there is also a lot of escape methods other than lifeboats". It's just a coincidence, I didn't expect it to be used here now.

Although the way of fighting seems a bit old-fashioned, as backward as the Normandy landings 50 years ago, it is not a problem considering that the enemy is too small. With the destroyer's fire control and suppression, the beachhead can be pulled out remotely and accurately even if there is resistance.

Ma Jiahui had just ordered the arrangement to go down, and almost immediately a subordinate came over to ask for battle.

"Captain, why don't you let our crew carry out the mission? Also, we have idle sailors who want to join us in the landing!"

Ma Jiahui observed it and said politely: "You are all professional sailors, and the task of ground combat is, of course, handed over to the people of the Blackwater Security Company." Their identities are Boss Gu's personal bodyguards, and when the boss passes through the dangerous sea area, there is a fact that he was attacked, and there is a risk of being attacked again and continuously, so the bodyguards should go to the legitimate defense to extinguish the source of the attack.

And you are now employed by the Lan Navy, isn't your undertaking of ground missions equivalent to the legitimate defense of the Lan side in foreign territory, which is not qualified? It's good to be on duty on the ship. ”

The person who came was immediately anxious: "Then we voluntarily wear the body armor and equipment of the Blackwater Security Company to go ashore, the information here is so blocked, no one will know! ”

Ma Jiahui was a little embarrassed: "This ...... With all due respect, even if you participate, you won't have any honor to speak of, and it is impossible to award you medals for the battles here, at most you will be given some attendance allowance according to the standards of the security company. And this is a matter between the Lanfangs, the poor of Southeast Asia, and the Indonesian slave owners, so why do you have to wade into this troubled water. ”

"Indonesians are not good birds in the first place! We just volunteered to fight, and now that we have been hired to the Lan side, how can we miss the opportunity! We can not make the honor public. ”

Ma Jiahui thought for a while: "Then you go back and quickly explain the situation, there is no honor, you can't be a sailor, only allowance, if you still want to go after agreeing to these conditions, resubmit the war petition, and we will arrange it as appropriate." Two amphibious armored personnel carriers, a helicopter, there were not many people, and there were up to 30 places for the battle. ”

"Okay, look at me, let's arrange it!"

......

A few minutes later, Bandayuno, who was taking a lunch break in an air-conditioned room at a bunker-like manor on East Maluku Island, was cautiously woken up by his men.

"Bastard, don't you see I'm resting. "Banda Yuno has a bit of the endowment of the low blood pressure demon king, and he is very angry when he gets up.

The younger brother of his subordinate carefully explained with a crying voice: "Boss, just now two boats sent back some information that is suspected to be an early warning, do you want to listen to it, we recorded it......"

Banda Yuno was not angry, and slapped him directly: "What are you doing, an early warning is an early warning, what is 'suspected to be an early warning'?

"Boss, listen to my explanation, there is a high probability that it is an early warning - the reason why I say suspicious is because they didn't have a chance to send it, and the signal was cut off. I couldn't call back, and there was no answer. The little brother was about to cry aggrievedly, but he didn't dare to complain.

It can't be helped, that's how it accompanies slave owners.

"No answer?" Banda Yuno felt a burst of blood rush to his brain, and his years of experience in the three caves of the cunning rabbit gave him an intuition that something should really be wrong, "Then don't you call people up immediately, it won't be Yusuf's people who will come to grab the territory, right?"

Until now, his prediction of the attack was still stuck in grabbing land between slave owners.

Unfortunately, Banda Yuno had just organized nearly 100 armed overseers to assemble and prepare to give orders to be on guard, when the sound of helicopters appeared in the sky.

Banda Yuno hurriedly hid back in the watchtower and secretly observed, there was no radar on the island, so he could only rely on telescopes to visually inspect it, and he took a few looks, and found that it was not like the model that Yusuf, the slave lord next door, bought.

What is even more terrifying is that after the helicopter observed and confirmed the target, almost in the time of the front and rear feet, 130 mm caliber naval gun shells flew over.

The main guns on the 052 were almost taken from the Lucian AK-130s of the 80s, with a double-barreled 130mm and a rate of fire of more than 30 rounds per minute, 60 rounds on each ammunition rack, and an additional 180 rounds of spare ammunition in the ship's ammunition magazine.

Isn't 300 shells enough to outrun a bunch of pirate slave owners?

As for the missiles, they are anti-aircraft and anti-submarine, they are too expensive and wasteful to use against ground targets, they do not deserve it.

Fighting pirates is originally a game of fighting a war with weapons from the 90s and a form of war 50 years ago.

Banda Yuno didn't even see how the shells flew over, and with the help of the fire control computer, his bunker-like manor was blown up by a 130-mm cannon because it was too luxurious and conspicuous. He himself was buried under a pile of rubble, unconscious.

A few minutes later, two amphibious armored personnel carriers appeared on the shallows a few kilometers away, with a total of less than 30 of them.

And there are at least two or three hundred overseers with guns on the island, and at least a dozen with RPGs and 40 fires, but these leaderless guys are completely unable to form organized resistance.

Some die-hards who relied on bazookas were relatively iron at first, trying to keep the enemy at bay on the beachhead. However, the effective range of the rocket launcher is too close - the accurate range of the RPG-7 against a tank-sized target is only 400 meters at most, and against a semi-submersible amphibious personnel carrier, it will take at least two or three hundred meters to hit, because the cross-sectional area of the outcropping is too small, and if the rocket is fired a little lower, it will be shot into the sea.

How could helicopters and naval guns allow these people to stand on the beach and wait for amphibious personnel carriers to approach within 300 meters? The accuracy of modern sighting systems is basically the same as that of the AC-130 gunboat in Call of Duty 4.

The helicopter is kept at an absolutely safe altitude of more than 600 meters, and the cannon is used to eliminate the guys with their heads as if they were playing a game of duty.

The rest of the guys rushed halfway and saw that their companions were killed, and they scattered as birds and beasts to hide back, but the coordinates and paths were still clearly visible, and then reported to shoot Zhu Yuan, and another 130mm naval gun greeted.

Two amphibious personnel carriers were easily ashore.

"Comrades, get ready, we are here to fight against pirates and free slaves, although not for the motherland, but this is also the most just cause!"

One of the commanders in the troop wagon gave a final word of encouragement, and then the cart rushed across the beach in a hurry, into a section where it could be hidden, and then got out of the car and spread out in battle formation in order to search and advance.

Everyone was mentally prepared to do a big job, but it went more smoothly than expected. Not only is the accurate fire support of the naval guns and helicopters more effective, but even after a little fighting, I remembered the chaotic gunfire like popping beans in the distance, which was very dense, but the attacker did not feel the sound of how many bullets were flying through the air.

"Company commander, what's going on? It seems that a lot of gunfire isn't coming at us?" A few soldiers were a little confused, so they asked their commanders.

The commander was also a little confused: "Don't let your guard down! Alternate cover, search and advance!"

Fifteen minutes later, as the bunker-like manor and several other important strongholds, fishing docks, and other locations were cleared, the landing fighters finally figured out the situation.

"Report sir, we tortured a few prisoners, it was their overseer team that suffered too many casualties in the first wave of blows, and several small leaders on the island distributed the remaining weapons to the slaves in a panic, trying to organize the slaves to participate in combat resistance, and then ......"

"Weapons for slaves? These people really don't have a good IQ. The captain seemed to have heard some very ridiculous and shocking news, and shook his head again and again.

These monkey slave owners, I guess they don't even know the allusions to the battle of Makino, and they dare to give weapons to these bitter slaves and expect them to fight to the death for the slaves?

Unfortunately, it's just too unchallenging.

But that's fine, at least you have zero casualties.
