Li Mo was sitting in front of a large liquid crystal display, looking at the computer-simulated waters of northeastern Somalia.

A 10,000-ton cargo ship is moving at low speed on the sea 10 kilometers away from Somalia's territorial waters, slowly heading south, more than 40 kilometers from Cape Bina and 160 kilometers from Cape Hafeng. More than 20 kilometers south of the cargo ship, in the territorial waters of Somalia, seven or eight small fishing boats are speeding north, as if to meet the cargo ship.

More than 10 kilometers north of the freighter, a warship was following far behind at the same speed as the freighter, and it was the South Korean Navy's KDX-2 guided missile destroyer 'Choi Ying'. At this moment, about 180 kilometers away in the western Indian Ocean east of the 'Cui Ying', there was an Omani Navy frigate heading southwest, apparently chasing the hijacked freighter.

Chen Zhichang, the chief officer of the Information Security Center, was explaining to Li Mo the movements of the ships on the simulation screen, so that Li Mo could have a deeper understanding of the operation that gathered off the coast of Somalia.

"North Korean special forces on those boats?" Li Mo asked, pointing to the seven or eight fishing boats that were converging towards the freighter in the territorial waters.

"Yes boss! On board these ships, in addition to the North Korean special forces, there are 30 temporary pirates and 20 official pirates recruited by the 'Gulf of Aden Hunters'. Their task will be to storm warships after an attack by the South Korean Navy. Chen Zhichang explained with a smile.

Fan Qingqing, who had been silent next to him, couldn't help but shiver when he heard this. She finally understood how much danger and conspiracy there was in this plan. The appearance of the North Korean special forces will definitely exceed everyone's expectations, and when the South Korean special forces rescued the hostages, they could not have imagined that it was not pirates who fought with them at all, but the 'old adversary' North Korean special forces. In addition, those temporarily recruited pirates will become cannon fodder to attack the warship, and if you are lucky, you may survive, and if you are unlucky, you will definitely be wiped out by the weapons on the Korean ship.

Let a group of unofficial pirates with second-hand AKs go to fight the destroyer, and only here can it be seen. At this time, she had a deeper understanding of her man's ruthlessness.

"Qingqing, these people are all restless elements, they are easily absorbed by other pirate gangs, and when the time comes, they will be a cancer that harms one party, so it is better to take this opportunity and use it for me. In short, if these people die, their families will also receive pensions. Li Mo seemed to be aware of the mood changes of the women around him, and turned his head to explain.

"I see!" Fan Qingqing smiled at Li Mo Yanran and said.

Li Mo smiled and was just about to speak, when a staff member walked in and reported that there was movement from the South Korean destroyer. He immediately looked at the display screen, and sure enough, the South Korean ship was speeding towards the freighter, and soon, a 'Bobcat' helicopter was taking off from the destroyer and flying towards the freighter.

According to the intelligence, it was quickly learned that South Korea was really going to act, and the helicopter took off this time not to carry a special combat team to attack, but to observe the movements of the pirates on the cargo ship and the situation of the hostages.

Then came from Basel on the freighter that the South Korean side was issuing an ultimatum demanding that the pirates immediately release the hostages and surrender, otherwise the South Korean Navy would attack immediately.

From the menacing South Korean Navy, Li Mo already knew that the other party would not give up, they would not let the pirates evacuate safely at all, and their real purpose was to exterminate the pirates.

"Boss, why are Koreans so arrogant? Don't they know that the use of force is not the best option for pirates? I remember that Somali pirates once said that if a country uses force against pirates, the pirates will retaliate against them. Don't these Koreans care about the Korean steamers that will pass here in the future? Fan Qingqing asked a few questions in a row in surprise, in her opinion, these South Koreans have bad brains, you must know that from the United Nations to pass the resolution on escorting ships in the Gulf of Aden to the present year, even the United States naval ships in this area have not really clashed with pirates, because Americans know that to deal with the pirates here who have a 'bottom line', force is not the best choice, but it is easy to intensify the contradictions with pirates and bring more trouble. And the U.S. Navy attaches more importance to the safety of hostages, and will not try anything to provoke pirates without being 100% sure.

The South Korean Navy apparently ignores this, and there are currently 21 hostages on the freighter, half of whom are South Koreans, who are now under the control of pirates, and any drastic action by them could lead to the pirates' rage and kill the hostages.

Li Mo couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "Who knows? The brains of the sticks have always been so simple. Perhaps they felt that a group of pirates would be terrified and lose their resistance in the face of their most advanced and powerful warships. Also, I think it's possible that the stick is trying to be a pirate this time. ”

"Liwei?" Fan Qingqing's eyes widened, and he said incredulously, "They take pirates to stand up? Giggles, only a stick would come up with such a solution! ”

Li Mo thought more in his heart, he didn't take the opportunity to make trouble this time. He has now smoothed out the internal relations of Somalia and is beginning to radiate his eyes to the periphery. And those foreign ships coming and going in the Gulf of Aden naturally became the target of Li Mo's attention. And unlike others, Li Moke knows very well that under the waters of the Gulf of Aden, there may really be a so-called interstellar gate. This can be seen from the maze on the treasure map that Egal left behind, and Luo Xiang and the others obtained something suspected of being an alien sarcophagus. In the vicinity of the Gulf of Aden, there are certainly unknown secrets hidden.

Now the warships of various countries have been wandering here for a year, and some have even changed several batches, but the search and research in the Gulf of Aden has not stopped for a moment.

The rumors are not groundless, not to mention that Li Mo still has conclusive evidence in his hands. Not far beyond the technology of modern technology, how could the sarcophagus suddenly disappear without a trace? Like a mythical teleportation.

Simply obtaining sarcophagus fragments and black mysterious metal in the underground labyrinth made the scientific research force in Li Mo's hands spend all his energy on research, and until now he has only mastered the two percent of the technology implied in these 'alien fragments', and the Y substances obtained from the nuclear weapons base are the foundation of Li Mo's survival now. Li Mo was so hungry for these mysterious substances and technologies that he had to get involved immediately.

And only by muddying the waters of the seemingly busy 'escort mission' in the Gulf of Aden can Li Mo take the opportunity to intervene, otherwise it is very easy to arouse resistance from other countries.

"How long are the North Korean special forces away from the freighter now?" Ten minutes later, Li Mo asked again. At this moment, the display screen has changed, the South Korean ship is still six kilometers away from the freighter, and the Bobcat helicopter seems to have the intention of returning to the warship after being rejected by the pirates. Once the helicopter returns, it is possible that the South Korean special operations team will be dispatched.

Without the participation of the North Korean special forces, the dozen or so people in Basel's hands would not be able to stop the attack of the South Korean special forces, unless the hostages were really used as shields. Let's not talk about whether the South Korean special combat team will retreat regardless of the safety of the hostages, even Li Mo does not want the hostages to be killed or injured. What he wants is to make South Korea suffer, not to completely tear his face with South Korea, because he feels that not only himself and North Korea are involved in this matter, but there seem to be other forces that have noticed and even participated, such as the Oman Navy frigate that suddenly turned towards the freighter.

There is a South Korean destroyer, and dealing with a dozen pirates is already a knife to kill, why should the Omani Navy frigate come and intervene? Oman, across the sea from Somalia, will not easily offend those pirates unless there are special circumstances.

"It will take about 20 minutes, and if you go at full speed, you can meet the freighter in a quarter of an hour at most, and if you take a helicopter or a speedboat, the South Korean special forces team can reach the freighter in a maximum of 10 minutes." Chen Zhichang replied immediately after rigorous calculations.

Li Mo frowned lightly when he heard this, which was equivalent to saying that Basel would have to resist the South Korean special forces for 5 minutes. Judging from the intelligence, this South Korean destroyer can carry two Super Lynx helicopters, each of which can carry nine heavily armed soldiers at a time, that is, even if a speedboat is not used, just using a helicopter can land 18 special combat team members on a cargo ship. And Besel had only 13 soldiers in his hands, including himself, and there were no anti-aircraft weapons, except for bazookas.

Bobcat helicopter is a multi-purpose helicopter, the naval version can not only carry soldiers, but also carry anti-ship missiles, rockets and other heavy weapons, plus 20mm cannons, it can be said that two Bobcat helicopters can wipe out all of Basel.

However, Li Mo is not too worried, mainly because Basel has hostages in his hands, and as long as it is hidden in the freighter, the heavy weapons of the Bobcat helicopter will be useless, unless the South Korean side intends to sink all the freighters, which is impossible.

Five minutes is not a long time, but it is not a short time, but now it depends on the 'lone wolf' Basel's impromptu reaction capability and the speed of the North Korean special forces. It is only necessary to wait for North Korean special forces with man-portable anti-aircraft weapons to arrive there to neutralize the threat of opposing helicopters.

"Qingqing, give Assad the order to get ready. It is incumbent upon the Somali Defence Forces to combat piracy and protect Somali citizens, and they must be ready to intervene at any time. Li Mo's eyes flickered for a moment and commanded.

At this moment, on the 'Cui Ying' missile destroyer, Captain Zheng Jae-ho looked at his watch with a red face and fiery eyes, and from time to time there were reports from soldiers in his ears to understand the movements in this sea area.

"Captain Cui, it's almost time, let the special combat team get ready. Please bear in mind that this war is at stake for the prestige of the Republic of Korea Navy in the international arena and that you must ensure the success of the mission at all costs. In the last sentence, Zheng Jae-ho had already said word by word with a murderous face.
