What are you talking about? Wait for me to tell Mr. Gu immediately, you must protect the things on the ship! Don't hang up the phone. ”

Zhao Ye took the phone and went over to look at the light spot on the radar, which was still approaching, but the relative direction was constantly changing.

"Yuantao, this is a PNG Navy patrol ship! Warning: Stop changing course, slow down for boarding inspection! Repeat: Stop changing course, slow down for boarding. ”

In the VHF16 channel, warning sounds continued.

Zhao Ye also listened to the satellite phone, where the boss was quickly reporting to the boss.

"Hey, Zhao Ye, tell me about the specific situation now. ”

Zhao Ye heard the boss's voice and hurriedly said: "The other party said that it was a patrol boat of the PNG Navy, and it has been following it for a while, and the maximum speed should only be 20 knots." Our freighter is now at a maximum speed of 25 knots in an attempt to get rid of it, but because they are coming from the right front, it is expected that in 5 minutes it will approach the nearest distance of 379 meters. I was worried about two things, the first was to force in with a speedboat, and the second was that they opened fire. ”

"Can you read the number of their ship?"

“02！”

"The PNG Navy's No. 02 patrol boat is an Australian-built Pacific Forum-class patrol boat, with a full load displacement of only 162 tons. Full staff: 18 people. The boat should have a 20 mm gun with a range of 2,000 meters, and there should be only one assault boat. ”

Zhao Ye didn't know how the boss could tell him so much data so quickly, he heard that there was a 20mm cannon on the opposite side, which could hit 2000 meters, and he was anxious.

I only heard the boss say: "Zhao Ye, tell the captain that the maximum speed should not stop." If you want to speed the boat aboard, defend yourself and you can fight back. The captain of the ship was asked to reply to the other party, reaffirming the freedom of navigation on the high seas and the protection of China. At the same time, he reminded the other party that the Yuantao was the cargo of Mr. Somare's friend, and asked the captain of the other party, Hopkins Walker, to ask Mr. Somaley for instructions to confirm whether to board the ship for inspection. The purpose is to delay the time first and avoid the opponent from firing with artillery. ”

"Boss, is there anything else to arrange?"

"You talk to the captain first, keep in touch. ”

Zhao Ye hurriedly told the captain what the boss meant, and the captain looked at Zhao Ye with some surprise, Mr. Somale's friend's cargo?

He hurriedly called: "PNG Navy patrol ship, this is the Chinese ocean-going freighter Yuantao." We are a legally registered merchant ship under the jurisdiction of the People's Republic of China, with freedom of navigation on the high seas. Your request is unwarranted, please confirm whether we are obliged to submit to the inspection? We recommend that you, Captain Hopkin Walker, contact Mr. Somarey and ask him if he is still sticking to his previous decision. Repeat: We recommend that you, Captain Hopkins Walker, contact Mr. Somarey and ask if he is still sticking to his previous decision. ”

After he finished speaking, he nervously asked the first mate, "How far is it now?"

"It's only 2.3 nautical miles!"

He asked Zhao Ye worriedly, "Can it work?"

Zhao Ye didn't answer him, just pinched the satellite phone. 2.3 nautical miles, and in a little while it will be within the range of a 20-mm gun.

2.2 nm, 2 nm, 1.9 nm...... Soon, the patrol ship came to the right, less than 2,000 meters away from the Yuantao.

There were no further calls, and there was no sign of firing or lowering the speedboat.

The captain called again, and the other party's ship had come to a place only 0.5 nautical miles away from the Yuantao, less than a kilometer!

"Captain!

The first mate shouted in surprise.

At this moment, the Yuantao was trying to pass around the opponent's left front in an arc to the left.

Due to the difference in speed, the route of the Yuantao will slowly widen the distance after it is only 379 meters away from the opponent.

This is something that happened for a long time, with a slow acceleration, the other party's route adjustment caused by the Yuantao's course adjustment, and the final calculated result.

And now, the other side has slowed down.

The captain was also pleasantly surprised: "What is the distance now?"

"0.6 nautical miles! They steer on the right-hand side!"

"Right rudder?" the captain thought for a moment, "we're going to be left for the time being, just to get rid of them." Eventually, it's still a matter of heading in the direction of Flintstone Island. They are right-hand rudders...... Do you really give up or do you want to rush to a more suitable place?"

Zhao Ye didn't care so much, and when there was a new change, he immediately dialed Zhao Hongtao's satellite phone.

"Boss, they slowed down. The captain said that in addition to giving up, it was possible to rush to a more suitable place in front of our course to intercept again. ”

Zhao Hongtao said: "I was about to dial it for you." Rest assured, it should be fine, but continue to be vigilant. ”

"Is it really okay?" Zhao Ye was a little incredulous.

"The boss said it's okay, it's okay, don't worry. ”

Zhao Ye hung up the phone before saying to the captain: "I should have really given up." ”

The captain and first mate looked at Zhao Ye with a little admiration, and the captain asked, "How do you Mr. Gu know the name of the captain on the other side?" and ...... Mr. Gu is really a friend of the old Papua New Guinea Somare?"

Zhao Ye didn't know anything, but he didn't speak.

This is taught by the boss, saying that it is very powerful.

In fact, not only the captain and first mate were very curious, but Zhao Ye and Zhao Hongtao were equally curious.

But they put it all down to the sheer power of the boss.

This is indeed Gu Song's great powers, but no matter how Ren Zhao Hongtao thinks, he can't figure out how the boss who is exercising on the treadmill next to him can get things done without saying a word.

He just stopped and answered Zhao Ye's phone, and after hanging up the phone, he continued to run.

Then after a while, he said, "It's done, tell Zhao Ye to continue to be vigilant." ”

Zhao Hongtao was about to call Zhao Ye when he received feedback from Zhao Ye: the other party slowed down and turned.

He really wanted to ask the boss, how could he know who the other captain's captain was as soon as he heard Zhao Ye say the other party's string number?

Also, in his impression, the boss should never have had direct or indirect dealings with the so-called Somaray veterans, right?

You must know that as the person who protects the boss most of the time, he knows a lot of secrets!

But Zhao Hongtao just couldn't figure out how the boss did it.

……

Hopkins Walker has reduced the patrol ship to 12 knots. Looking at the large freighter not far away, his mood was still difficult to calm down.

Because he couldn't figure it out, it was the Somal veteran who arranged for him to intercept and inspect the freighter.

As a result, when he actually contacted the Somal elders, he said that the operation would be cancelled.

You must know that the instructions given to him by the Somaray patriarch at that time must be intercepted and not hesitate to fire!

What's going on?

The moment he heard his name from the listening channel, Hopkins Walker was shocked.

He also thought that the other party had been on guard for a long time, so he even knew the situation on his side clearly.

And then, they said, let themselves contact the Somal patriarch and ask him if he still insisted on the original decision. This kind of question made Hopkin Walker feel very bad.

PNG's defense is not strong, with a navy of just over 100 people, and he is the captain of one of only three ships in service.

It's a ship, it's just a patrol boat. Reaching the high seas in the deep waters was already an exception, and for a time Hopkins Walker felt the importance of this mission.

So, what happened so that the Somal senator, who originally wanted him to intercept the freighter even if he didn't hesitate to open fire, no longer insisted on his original opinion?
