If it weren't for the cover of the bulletproof shield, Jiang Chen at this time would probably have been beaten into a sieve, and then sacrificed his life for the country.

And in the face of such diehards, Jiang Chen of course couldn't be soft, as a stun bomb was thrown into it, in the midst of the pirate's screams, a crisp gunshot stopped the pirate's scream, and also stopped the pirate's life in this life.

Half an hour later, as the operation team returned to the deck, all the cabins under the pirate mothership were searched, and most of the seven or eight pirates hiding in the cabins were captured because of tear gas, and the remaining part were all cleaned up because of stubborn resistance, and the operation team did not suffer any losses.

With the complete cleaning of the entire fishing boat, it also announced the success of the operation team. Soon, the scene was taken over by members of the South China Sea Fleet, and the thirteen members of the action team took the speedboat again and returned to the ship of the escort formation.

However, just after the operation team boarded the ship, a warship of the South China Sea Fleet next to it suddenly broke away from the team and headed west.

"Fingers, do you still have an operational mission?"

Looking at the dozens of marines who had just boarded the ship, Jiang Chen, who had just finished reporting the operation, couldn't help but ask.

"The captives of the South China Sea Fleet have just confessed, and on a small island more than a hundred nautical miles to the west, there is also a nest of this group of pirates. Except for a dozen pirates above, the rest is what these pirates have looted during this time!" Looking at the light in the eyes of these action team members, Zheng Mingchuan, who looked a little helpless, said, "The meat is all for you to eat, so leave some soup for the brother troops!"

This time, because of the tactical groups of the Sea Eagle Squadron and the Dragon's Tooth Brigade of the Haijiao Squadron, the South China Sea Fleet did not dispatch special forces to support the operation, but directly dispatched a squadron of marines and two missile destroyers to carry out the operation.

But so far, the marines of that squadron have not caught any oil and water, the thirteen fishermen who were held hostage were taken down by the joint action team led by Jiang Chen, and the pirate's mother ship was also taken down by Jiang Chen.

Therefore, after knowing that there was another pirate-infested island in the west, and leaving some of the team members to take over the scene, the South China Sea Fleet immediately let a missile frigate, carrying dozens of marines, rush to the island as fast as possible.

There is indeed a bit of credit grabbing in this, but the problem is that if you don't take the initiative, all the credit will be snatched away by the escort fleet and the special forces of the escort fleet.

As a matter of fact, the waters of the South China Sea should be under the jurisdiction of the South China Sea Fleet, and this matter was originally handled by the South China Sea Fleet.

To put it more ugly, if after the operation is over, when the operation report is reported to the higher-ups, the higher-level departments will see that everything was done by the escort formation of the East China Sea Fleet, it is estimated that it will be embarrassing at that time.

Therefore, based on the above, the final task is still left to the South China Sea Fleet to solve, and the escort formation has more important things waiting for them.

"Let's go and rest, in half an hour, after all the work has been handed over, we will set off, and there are more important tasks waiting for us!"

Looking at the members of the action team whose eyes had dimmed a lot, Zheng Mingchuan said angrily, "When you get to the escort area, when the escort mission begins, when you are tired!"

"Also, by tomorrow night, everyone must hand in a report on this operation!"

Thinking of this, Zheng Mingchuan added.

When special forces carry out tasks, especially some actual combat missions, they generally have to submit an operation report to their superiors after the operation is completed.

And Zheng Mingchuan waited for these guys to finish writing, and hurriedly sent the action report to their leaders, that is, the Haijiao Squadron and the Dragon Tooth Brigade.

"Understood!"

Seeing this, the members of the action team responded in unison, but their tone was much weaker than before.

When he thought that there was still an action report to write, Jiang Chen and the team members suddenly had a headache.

"These stinky boys!"

Seeing this group of young people leaving, Zheng Mingchuan, who was still standing in place, couldn't help but scold, but his eyes were full of relief.

"Lao Zheng, how is it?"

Standing next to him, Lin Guoze, who had not spoken, also looked at the members of the action team who had left, and then asked Zheng Mingchuan.

"How's that?"

Hearing this, Zheng Mingchuan turned his head and looked very puzzled, but it looked like he was pretending.

"Don't confuse me, I don't believe you don't know what I'm trying to ask. Don't tell me, no one called you before the operation began!" said Lin Guoze, who saw this.

After hearing this, Zheng Mingchuan, who was stunned for a while, finally showed a smile on his face after looking at the other party for a while: "Don't worry, hahaha, with them, the actions behind are a lot more stable!"

Listening to Zheng Mingchuan's relieved smile, Lin Guoze, who saw this, also sighed and said: "Yes, I just received news that another merchant ship escorted by another country has been robbed, and many crew members have died! The government of that country is negotiating with the pirates, and I am afraid that it will ask for a ransom of several million US dollars!"

"The past few months of our escort have happened to be the busiest period for merchant trade, and it is also the period when piracy activities are the most rampant!" said Zheng Mingchuan's face here, "At that time, it may happen every few days." We were under a lot of pressure!"

"But no matter how much pressure there is, we have to overcome it, no matter what, we need to complete all the escort operations with quality and quantity. Make sure that there will be no problems with a single merchant ship in the process!" Zheng Mingchuan, whose expression became determined, said.

"Okay now, you can be regarded as witnessing their combat effectiveness, you should breathe a sigh of relief, right?" Speaking of this, Lin Guoze couldn't help but smile on his face.

"Otherwise, I just said that I would be relieved!" Zheng Mingchuan, who saw this, also responded with a smile.

In fact, the commander of the escort formation has always been skeptical of the performance of the joint operations team, after all, the team is a combination of two special operations teams of special forces.

What's more, one of the special operations teams, that is, the tactical group of the Dragon's Tooth Brigade, not only had not undergone special long-distance training before, but even in the period before the long-distance operation began, the entire team directly lost its combat effectiveness due to seasickness.

During that period of exercise, there was no tactical team involved at all, because they were lying on their beds and vomiting in the dark.

Although the tactical team quickly adapted to the life of the voyage and quickly joined the exercise sequence, because it was a joint combat team composed of two squads that had never cooperated, although they cooperated well in the exercise, Zheng Mingchuan was still very worried about their performance in actual combat.

However, in this incident of pirates holding fishermen hostage, the performance of the joint operations team shocked Zheng Mingchuan at the same time, and it can be regarded as exceeding Zheng Mingchuan's test.

For the performance of the joint team, Zheng Mingchuan now feels very satisfied, and Zheng Mingchuan is also beginning to be full of confidence in the upcoming escort operations in the future.

Half an hour later, the operation to rescue the fishermen was declared complete, and with the cooperation of the East China Sea Fleet's escort squadron and the Hainan Fleet, not only all the fishermen who had been held hostage were rescued, but also the pirate gangs in the sea area were destroyed, and after killing some of the pirates, many pirates were also captured.

Of course, a lot of items were also seized, which will be used as direct evidence in the future when the pirates are tried.

And it won't be long before the warship that heads to the west and clears the last stronghold of this gang of pirates will also send good news, which will also draw a successful end to the whole operation.

After handing over the work in hand, the two guided missile destroyers of the escort squadron of the South China Sea Fleet were handed over all the work, and then set off again, and after heading to a certain sea area to join up with the comprehensive supply ships, the escort squadron immediately continued to sail toward its destination in accordance with the prescribed route.

A few days later, amid the sound of horns and oaths, the escort formation officially crossed the equator and sailed into the southern hemisphere, one step closer to its destination.

During this period, as the escort mission became closer and closer, the atmosphere of the entire escort formation became much more tense, and a small exercise was carried out on various warships almost every day, and a large exercise was carried out every once in a while.

In the face of a small exercise a day and a major exercise in three days, the 13 members of the joint operations team also actively joined in the exercise, and the special operations teams from the two different special forces continued to cooperate in the exercise after exercise, increasing the degree of tacit understanding between each other.

As mentioned before the departure, the tactical group of the Longya Brigade has gone through exercises and training again and again, coupled with the test of actual combat, its own combat capability has risen rapidly, and it is even able to set off on its own to carry out escort missions without relying on the Sea Eagle Squad.

The Sea Eagle Squad of the Sea Jiao Squadron is facing a tactical team that is improving day by day, and the Sea Eagle Squad that cannot be left behind on the one hand learns the skills of the tactical team in some aspects, and on the other hand, its own strength is gradually improving.

Not only the joint combat team, but all the members of the escort formation used all the time they could to constantly improve their combat level and the combat effectiveness of the entire warship during this long voyage operation.

Under such circumstances, the new batch of escort formations arrived at the predetermined sea area on time, and just in front of them were the three warships of the previous escort formation, which had been carried out for half a year.
