Chapter 702: The Battle of Socotra
Fortunately, Li Ming has always been close to the door, so Li Ming can come out in such a timely manner, and at the door, there are a lot of servants.
Kelly didn't expect that she would be in the air, and when she came to the door, she saw that there were people all around, and Kelly was embarrassed to do anything, so she had to smile and say, "Dear Lee, I look forward to our next meeting." ”
Li Ming smiled awkwardly, and thought in his heart: "Lao Tzu doesn't want to meet you again, you woman is too self-respecting." ”
Li Ming is not without confidantes in Europe, but whether it is figure, appearance, or personality, he is far stronger than Kelly.
Li Ming has nothing to do now, and decided to go back to Socotra Island, he hasn't seen Xu Qing and Ning Shanshan for several days, and Li Ming really misses them a little.
However, Li Ming guessed that the two were having fun now, although the two women were his wives, they were still children.
In order to coax the two girls, Li Ming built a treehouse for the two of them, this kind of treehouse is made of mutated painstaking trees, which was not originally called this name, this is a new name given by Li Ming, the reason is that this kind of tree will exude a fragrance.
Humans feel very comfortable and refreshing when they smell it, but insects only feel very irritated when they smell it.
The reason for this is to let the two of them sleep in the tree house without being disturbed by mosquitoes.
Of course, it's the same with glass and insect repellent as normal, but then it doesn't feel that way.
Arriving on the island by plane, Li Ming rested for a few days and happened to take a look at the situation at the construction site.
At this time, with Li Ming's crazy efforts to throw money, Li Ming's island defense project was finally completed.
More than 1,000 lighthouses have been erected throughout the island, which can illuminate the entire sea at night.
Around the lighthouse, there are beautiful bunkers.
In order to maximize the soldiers' stay in the bunker, Li Ming not only installed air conditioning in the bunker, but also Li Ming had a sofa.
It can be said that in peacetime, these bunkers are independent houses, and there is no problem with living in them.
In this way, there will be no problem with Li Ming's fortifications, and Li Ming can go out to work with peace of mind.
In the evening, Li Ming hugged Xu Qing and Ning Shanshan and lay on the open-air balcony of the castle to rest, near the equator, the stars at night are very different from those in China, but they are still very beautiful.
Especially in a place like Socotra, where there is no heavy industry, it is even more comfortable to look at.
Li Ming is comfortable here, but on the other side, the four major grain merchants are not comfortable, because they are rapidly approaching Socotra Island at this time, and they are still carrying an armed force of five hundred people.
This time, the four major grain merchants decided to play with Li Ming, because they already seriously felt that Li Ming was secretly doing something to them.
In order to protect everything they had, the chairman of the four major grain merchants took out a billion dollars together, armed an elite mercenary force of five hundred people, and rushed towards Li Ming's island.
Their purpose was very simple, since Li Ming was on the island now, they would kill Li Ming and his family.
It's just that what they don't know is that the current island of Socotra is not what it used to be.
Now on the island, it has become a flawless Maginot Line, and it is absolutely impossible to bypass him to attack, because there are defensive fortresses on the entire island.
It is said to be a small island, but in fact it is already a small fortress, so when the five hundred mercenaries came ashore, they were doomed to tragedy.
Li Ming was chatting with his wives in the castle when suddenly his subordinates called and said, "Report, there are unknown ships approaching us." ”
Li Ming was stunned for a moment and said, "Do you know what kind of ship the other party is?" ”
The subordinate reported: "General, it looks like a cargo ship, but the direction they are going is not like our port, but somewhere else. ”
Li Ming was stunned, in the past, if there were ships that wanted to go to Dubai or Saudi Arabia, when they passed through Socotra Island, they would stop for a while and rest for a day or two, and the island mainly relied on this to make money.
However, those ships are docked near the harbor, and on the other side of the harbor, there are only cliffs, could it be that the other party wants to come up from the cliffs?
Indeed, the other party really wanted to come up from the cliff, and the cruise ship stopped at a distance of five hundred meters from the cliff.
The CEOs of the four major grain merchants were all present, and the four of them stood on the deck and looked at the more than five hundred mercenaries in front of them, and said: "Okay, guys, now it's time for you to perform, Li Ming is on the island, I heard that he has a force under his command, which is composed of local savages, and they are basically defending in the castle, I ask you to take down this castle and capture Li Ming and his relatives alive, you know?" ”
The captains of the sixteen mercenary squads walked out separately, looked at each other mockingly, and said one after another: "Don't worry, we will handle this little matter for you in minutes, I really don't understand, such a simple task, why are so many of us coming." ”
The CEOs of the four major grain merchants frowned at the same time, and said: "Don't underestimate Li Ming, his subordinates are not weak, a mercenary team of 11 people I hired before was wiped out by him, there are tens of thousands of savages on the island, he formed a force of 1,000 people, you are only 500 people, you are still fighting in a strange place, I still feel that there are not enough people, you must not underestimate the enemy." ”
Hearing that Li Ming's men had killed a mercenary squad, this made the leaders of these mercenaries begin to look at Li Ming squarely.
However, just when they thought they were really facing Li Ming, they found a big problem.
Suddenly, the dark seaside lit up, and two lighthouses on the cliff turned on at the same time, shining the lights on the cruise ship.
In an instant, five hundred soldiers and the CEOs of the four major grain merchants were exposed to the light.
Li Ming looked at the scene through the screen, especially when Li Ming saw that the people on the ship were all mercenaries with guns, the corners of Li Ming's mouth showed a sneer.
Li Ming said to the soldiers beside him: "Go, inform your general, and order the artillery unit to fire artillery on me according to the target provided by the radar to smash them." ”
The soldier immediately ran down.
Li Ming's position is not just composed of ordinary soldiers, if it is just a soldier, it is too difficult to defend, so Li Ming also asked Saruman for a hundred heavy artillery, this thing is no longer used in Saudi Arabia, and it has basically become an antique, but Li Ming just needs it, so he was asked by Li Ming to come over.
