0259 Pirate encounter

Although Xing Muliu shouted that Xing Mubin was a brother, the age difference between the two was indeed too big.

Xing Mubin is in his forties, in the prime of life, and is in his prime. Xing Muliu is only in his twenties, and Xing Mubin's child is only five years younger than Xing Muliu's sister-in-law, and Xing Muliu is only one year younger than Xing Nannan, the granddaughter of the uncle.

Therefore, although Xing Muliu and Xing Mubin are of the same generation, Xing Mubin has always regarded Xing Muliu as a child.

Seeing Xing Muliu's boyfriend Tang Ding this time, Xing Mubin naturally looked at him with scrutiny.

"You cured my grandfather's illness?" Xing Mubin looked Tang Ding up and down, left and right, and didn't see that he looked like a miracle doctor.

When Xing Guofeng was cured by Tang Ding at that time, Xing Mubin was participating in the multinational force's joint maritime exercise, which was a critical juncture to show the demeanor of our great country.

In this era of peace, the exercise is equivalent to war, and asking for leave during the exercise is equivalent to escaping from the battle, although Xing Mubin also wants to go back to see his grandfather, but the military life is in his body, and there has never been a deserter in the ancestral training of the expert.

Therefore, Xing Mubin didn't have time to go back, and waited until the end of the half-month exercise, Xing Mubin led the ship back to the port to rest and replenish, and he had time to call home back, but at that time, the old man Xing was basically recovered, and he was recuperating, and the expert moved out of the old house inexplicably.

The South China Sea Fleet, to which Xing Mubin belongs, is responsible for the largest area of maritime territory, and this sea area is also an area of uninterrupted regional friction, and the responsibility is also the most significant.

So Xing Mubin's vacation was only two days, so he went back to take a look and urgently returned to the army.

According to what Xing Muliu learned when he went back, it seems that the connoisseur moved away from the old mansion in Yuquan Mountain, which was divided during the Taizu period, because the old mansion was unlucky.

What kind of bullshit is this! Feudal superstition, phew!

Xing Mubin almost scolded his mother when he heard it. But it was his father who said this, and scolding his mother was scolding his wife, and Xing Mu Bin couldn't help it.

Although the unanimous statement of connoisseurs is that they want to change their residence and move out of the connoisseur's old house, Xing Mubin is not an outsider, he is the most likely person of this generation to hang the general star, and it is also the hope of the new generation of connoisseurs.

Tang Ding looked at Xing Mubin's scrutinizing gaze, without fear, neither humble nor arrogant, "Coincidentally, grandpa's illness happens to be a little sure of me." ”

"A little?" Xing Mubin's eyes were sparkling, revealing a murderous aura.

Xing Mubin, born in the army, is different from other red second generations, his rank of lieutenant colonel did not use the relationship of an expert, and it was completely obtained by his own military merits. Although it was in peacetime, Xing Mubin participated in the most actual combat exercises, and even when there were no actual combat exercises, he would take the initiative to apply to escort Chinese merchant ships in the Gulf of Aden with ships, in order to accumulate sailing experience and actual combat experience.

Most of the Somali pirates who crisscross the Gulf of Aden will retreat when they see a warship, but there are also some outlaws, or relatively large pirate organizations, even if they see a warship there, they will also take risks, because hijacking merchant ships is a lucrative business.

Others are afraid of encountering pirates when escorting, but Xing Mubin is eager to meet pirates and have a real battle.

Because of Xing Mubin, the illiterate Somali pirates were forced to work hard to learn Chinese, because they had no way, they had to know Chinese characters in order to avoid the Yancheng ship led by Xing Mubin.

The Yancheng ship is the latest product of the 052D missile destroyer led by Xing Mubin, and the navy is not equipped much, but Xing Mubin actively fought for this captain, not only because the ship is advanced, but also because Yancheng is the second hometown of experts.

"Brother, what are you doing here, you tiger's eyes, don't frighten Tang Ding!" Xing Muliu looked at Xing Mubin with a stern gaze, and she couldn't stand it.

"Frightened? Is he so easily frightened?" Xing Mubin really wanted to use his majesty just now to test Tang Ding's guts.

But with his intimidating eyes that have gone through a hundred battles, he can't have the slightest impact on Tang Ding.

Tang Ding always had a smile on his face, without the slightest fear.

"Return!" Xing Mubin took a small fleet of three ships and returned to the Mediterranean.

Of course, it will pass through Dubai on the way, and at the same time, the Chinese Navy Yancheng ship also contacted Dubai in advance, because it wanted to send Princess Shanna back to China.

However, as soon as the three warships crossed the Suez Canal and entered the Red Sea, the other two warships received escort missions, telling them to wait for a merchant ship to turn around and cross the Gulf of Aden together.

Due to the foreign affairs mission, Xing Mubin's Yancheng ship first escorted Princess Shana back to Dubai, and finally rendezvous in the Arabian Sea to return to China together.

Dubai, the second largest emirate in the United Arab Emirates, is very famous in the world, especially the capital Dubai, which everyone knows is a place to get drunk on money.

To get to Dubai, you need to cross the Strait of Hormuz to reach the Persian Gulf, which is on the coast of the Persian Gulf.

"Well, there is the Strait of Hormuz in front of you, and after the Strait of Hormuz, Dubai is not far away. Xing Mubin introduced to Xing Muliu and Tang Ding.

Not far away, Princess Shanna leaned on the side of the boat, looking at the endless sea, and I don't know what she was thinking?

Originally, Princess Shana was a lively and cheerful girl, and she was also influenced by Western education, so she was not at all like what she is now, once Xing Muliu and Tang Ding also talked about this topic, Tang Ding thought that she might have been frightened, and the pampered Princess Shana should have experienced that kind of scene and was frightened, but Xing Muliu smiled and shook her head.

The Chinese Navy's charity act was also unanimously praised by the international community, and Princess Shanna of the Emirate of Dubai was volunteered to return home.

Just after passing the Strait of Hormuz, Xing Muliu had a lot of sea breezes, and he was a little dizzy, not long after Tang Ding saw off Mu Liugang back to the cabin, a soldier came to report to Xing Mubin, "Captain, a cargo ship in front of you sent a distress signal." ”

"What's going on?"

"It was a mechanical problem, and I asked for help from a passing ship. Are we going to do a rescue?"

"Rescue!"

There is an unwritten rule at sea that if a ship in distress encounters it, the nearest ship must be rescued, because no one can guarantee that he will not encounter any bad conditions.

In front of it was a small cargo ship with a displacement of up to a thousand tons, and at this time the cargo ship was somewhat tilted and looked serious.

As the Yancheng approached the cargo ship, more than 20 officers and men lowered the escalator, and it was important to save people first.

Because once such a ship is wrecked, a huge whirlpool will be formed, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

However, there are a lot of people on this cargo ship, forty or fifty people have come up, and there are still thirty or so people below who have not come up.

Does a cargo ship need nearly a hundred crew members?

And the cargo ship doesn't seem to be very large, and normally, twenty crew members are enough to keep the whole ship running. Unlike a large missile destroyer like the Yancheng ship, it does not have two or three hundred people, and it cannot operate all the equipment at all.

Xing Mubin felt that the situation was a little strange, and ordered the soldiers to stop the rescue and make sure that the situation of these people was important first. In fact, this situation is not because they did not inquire, but because of the language barrier between the two, this group of people speaks Arabic, and the soldiers only speak Chinese, but this group of Arabs does not understand Chinese, and when they find a soldier who can speak English, they also shake their heads and say that they do not understand.

Ships sailing on the sea have special navigation distress signals, and these signals can be understood as long as they are ships sailing in the sea.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Xing Mubin's order to stop was passed on, the group of Arabs pulled out their guns from their robes, one to one, and pressed them against the foreheads of the soldiers, and two of them also pressed against Xing Mubin's head.

"Come up, quick!" The people below quickly climbed up, and hundreds of people rushed out of the cabin of the cargo ship, and quickly climbed up.

The small cargo ship turned out to have no cargo, it was full of people.

They quickly climbed aboard the warship.

It's a pirate!

Xing Mubin regretted it in his heart. I was too careless. This is about to reach Dubai, and after the Strait of Hormuz is Dubai, I was too careless to let these pirates get on the warship without much effort.

Xing Mubin didn't expect that there would be pirates who would dare to rob a heavily armed warship?

But after careful study, Xing Mubin is not wrong, because this is the practice of world navigation, and when encountering such a seriously tilted ship, it is the least moral behavior to rescue the people on board, because no one can see death without saving.

Xing Mubin is not afraid of death, but worried about this warship.

Judging from the behavior of this group of pirates, this group of people is well-planned, and at least the props are very realistic. The small cargo ship is really tilting more and more, and it is still slowly sinking, maybe about to capsize and sink.

This group of pirates is really bloody!

But I just don't know if this group of pirates has taken a fancy to their warship or something else?

This warship is China's latest warship, and the radar, artillery, and missile technology on it are all the world's most advanced research results.

Xing Mubin regretted a little that at the beginning, because he was worried about the lives of these more than 20 soldiers, he didn't make up his mind to fight with these people, and now he doesn't even have the opportunity to fight hard.

In a short time, all three hundred officers and men of the ship were gathered on the deck, and when they saw that the captain was being controlled, everyone obediently disarmed.

"Who's the biggest official here, call me out!" It turned out that there were still some people in this group who could speak English, and they had just pretended not to understand.

Although that person was asking, he was actually looking at Xing Mubin, because he had two bars and two stars on his shoulders and the rank of lieutenant colonel.

The lieutenant colonel is second, if not the largest, officer on a warship.

"Well, I'll count to three from now on, and if no one comes forward, I'll start killing people until somebody does. ”

"I'm the captain. Xing Mubin stood up.

"Very well, Mr. Captain, I heard that Princess Shanna of Dubai is on the ship, can you please invite her out?" said the leader in a good manner.
