Chapter 138: Robbery
"Little ones, give me a top!"
At the sound of the chirping and rattling of the tigers, the forty killer whales joined forces and immediately flipped the hovercraft back and stopped steadily on the water.
"Lord Dragon King, I have completely annihilated the enemy army and captured the trophy of the 'Dragon Boat', please instruct!"
Ao Tang couldn't help but smile, Hu Ding was a little smart, and gave this hovercraft a "dragon boat" title, that's right, isn't his Ao Tang's car a dragon boat? However, this hovercraft has just capsized in the sea, and now it has flipped back, can it continue to be used?
"It should work, it's like a heavy rainstorm. Moreover, the brand of the British Griffon company is quite excellent, and the Griffon 8000TD (M) hovercraft is also its mainstream product, at least the quality of the H181 and H182 can stand the test. β
Mi Lu is talking about the model of this hovercraft, as for H182 is its number, the Indian Coast Guard has a total of 6 ships, from H181 to H186, the reason why only the first two are of excellent quality is because the first two are of British origin, and the last four are assembled by Indian domestic factories, and as we all know, India's domestic military products are greatly discounted.
Moreover, the Indian Navy (including the Coast Guard) has a characteristic, the more low-end products, such as hovercraft and patrol boats, the better the quality, or the better the maintenance; And high-end ones, such as aircraft carriers and warships, often have serious problems.
India's Audit Office has disclosed that seventy percent of the Indian Navy's warships are no longer usable. One of the reasons is, first, because of those aircraft carriers and large warships, India buys mostly second-hand obsolete goods; Second, the Indian army [***] is rampant, the officers are full of private pockets, and the funds for maintenance are classified into private pockets; Third, India's own technology is not good, not only the maintenance technology is poor, but also the use technology is poor, even the operation of the ship is a problem, and it is easy to break down at every turn.
Mi Lu explained the truth to Ao Tang and sneered: "The Indian Navy has a 'glorious tradition' of colliding ships, for example, in January this year, a Leander-class frigate collided with a merchant ship, and the frigate sank, and in June last year, two Kilo-class submarines collided, and the year before last, there was ......."
Mi Lu happily counted the collision accidents of the Indian Navy, and it has indeed become a practice and tradition to knock out one ship a year when you are lucky, and several ships a year when you are unlucky. Of course, a collision does not necessarily mean that it will sink, but the bad condition of the Indian Navy ships can be imagined.
However, the Indian Navy is also a little clever, and the big ships are not well maintained, so they try their best to maintain the small boats, carefully maintain patrol boats, hovercraft and the like, and can be pulled out for a walk at any time, and are active in all kinds of international affairs to show the faΓ§ade to other countries: "Oh, you see how good our great Indian warships are!" β
For example, H181 and H182 have made great contributions in several international rescues, and their heroic posture of charging into battle and saving people in a variety of complex water environments has made foreign friends who do not know the truth exclaim: "The naval ships of the Indians are too good!" β
Ao Tang laughed when he heard this, and immediately boarded H182, they forced the Burmese officers to teach the patrol boat how to do it last night, and now although they have changed to a hovercraft, the principle is very similar, and it is not a complex large warship, and after a try, it can really move.
"Very good, this is my Dragon Boat One! It's a pity that the ship will have to sink in two days at most. Well, when I contract the island in the future, I will definitely buy a few and come back, it's okay to go for a ride on the sea, but unfortunately I can only buy civilian supplies, otherwise the relevant departments will invite me to tea. β
Occupy the ship, check the equipment, Ao Tang took a look, H182 only has a 12.7mm machine gun is really not enough firepower, immediately returned to the PB90 patrol boat, the gun is fixed, Ao Tang can't do anything, but a grenade launcher and two 12.7mm machine guns, can be directly removed.
In this way, H182 has a grenade launcher, three heavy machine guns, plus more than 20 pistols, rifles, and submachine guns left by Burmese and Indian officers and soldiers, and more than 30 grenades, piling up a small arms arsenal. After thinking about it, he asked the killer whales to salvage the bodies of Indian officers and soldiers, and Ao Tang went up to peel off a few military uniforms that had not been bitten, washed them in the seawater, and dried them on the top platform.
Mi Lu couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "Ao Tang, do you want to fight?" And pretend to be Indian officers and soldiers? β
Ao Tang shook his head and said, "It may not be necessary to fight, but it's always good to be prepared." Huding, this patrol boat is handed over to you. β
Tiger Ding got the order, and once again gave an order to the killer whales: "Little ones, sink for me!" β
I saw forty killer whales pounce on them with joy, and like arhats, they pressed the patrol boat down to the surface and sank to the bottom of the sea.
After doing this, Ao Tang pulled Hu Ding, gave a face-to-face lecture, and immediately drove the hovercraft and drove away.
In addition to Ao Tang and Mi Lu on the ship, there were also nine blue-ringed octopuses, Lan Yi pulled eight recruits into a cabin, and said: "Lord Demeng Dragon King's enlightenment, it is your great creation, from today on, you must fight for Lord Dragon King for life under my leadership!" I'm Blue B, the captain of the Blue Ring Team...... "As for Blue B, who is that?" Lan Yi was triumphant.
Tigrip Base, Southern Command of the Indian Coast Guard.
Some of the officers were playing cards, some were drinking tea and reading newspapers, some were practicing yoga, some were bored and in a daze, and some were chatting.
"Why hasn't H182 been out for so long and hasn't come back? Nagodpur's pig can't have drowned, right? β
"Bastard, don't insult the pigs. As for h182, whatever, maybe he'll be back soon, maybe tomorrow, maybe he won't be back, why bother so much. β
"Return, can't you come back?"
"Maybe you get lost, maybe you hit a ship, maybe you have a meteorite from the sky...... In short, the world is dangerous. β
At this time, a small soldier walked in slowly and saluted casually: "Report to the chief, there is a message from the Campbell Bay base that the Samal 42, which is patrolling there, has met H182......"
The Indian Coast Guard has three commands, the Southern Command is located in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and has bases in Tigripur and Campbell Bay. Tigrip is in the northernmost part, next to the Cocos Islands, which monitors Myanmar; The Campbell Bay base, on the other hand, guards the passage from the Strait of Malacca to the Indian Ocean.
The officers first laughed: "The guy in Campbell Bay is not small, he actually drove the Samal 42 to patrol, aren't you afraid of sinking halfway?" Then he wondered, "What?" H182 went to the Campbell Bay base? Is Nagopur really lost? Why didn't the soldiers under him remind him? β
Another officer said: "With Nagodour's surname, any soldier who dares to remind him will be a slap in the face immediately." β
"Oh, yes."
The officers laughed and said a few words, but they didn't pay attention to it. Although the two bases are hundreds of nautical miles apart, they are both the territory of the Indian Navy, and there will be no accidents. What's more, even if something does happen, they don't mind.
The soldier did not retreat, and continued to report: "Sir, the H182 has robbed several merchant ships!" β
"What!" The officers were suddenly shocked, and the commander of the base stood up and asked urgently: "Did you kill all the people on the merchant ship?" Fuck, if we're left alive, or if they send out a distress message, our Coast Guard's reputation is over! β
The soldier reported: "No, it's just robbing and not killing." When Samal 42 was discovered, H182 had already rushed away, leaving only the looted merchant ship behind. The Samar 42 was originally going to go up to extinguish the mouth and maintain the good reputation of our army, but it was found that it was an American merchant ship and could not be maintained. β
The base commander sat down and robbed the Americans, which was miserable, and the stupid pig of Nagopur did not end well, and his direct boss was also implicated.
About half an hour ago, on the original H182 and the current Dragon Boat No. 1, Ao Tang looked at the instrument and frowned, why? Because the H182 has a range of only 400 nautical miles, and it seems that the fuel is insufficient, he is racing all the way, and he is about to run out of fuel. Although he can move forward with a stream of water, he is not as powerful as the engine after all, and the speed is slow, and it will take the year of the monkey to return to China.
Coincidentally, there were several merchant ships passing by nearby, Ao Tang glanced at it, okay, it was not the flag of China, nor the flag of a friendly country, but the flag of the United States, and immediately grinned and ordered: "Lulu, you come to pilot." β
Ao Tang took off his coat, changed into an Indian military uniform that had been dried, ran up, sat directly on the machine gun position, opened the safe, and with a click, dozens of bullets rushed over.
On the merchant ship, MacArthur, an American businessman, was calculating the profits this time, dreaming of the wonderful prospect of counting the money and counting the cramps in his hands, when he heard the sound of gunfire and was shocked.
"What's going on? What's going on? Isn't it already out of Malacca? How can there still be pirates? β
Today, the most pirated place in the world is Somalia, followed by Malacca.
MacArthur was puzzled, but Ao Tang had already turned on the megaphone and shouted wildly in English: "Rob! β
With a bang, the hatch was pushed open, and MacArthur's bodyguards rushed in and said, "Boss, it's not a pirate, it's the coast guard of the Indians!" β
"What? Indian Coast Guard? β
MacArthur was furious, if it was a pirate who didn't know the roots, then it would be fine, but you, the Indian Coast Guard, the official military agency of a country, dared to rob in broad daylight! Especially the robbery of our American merchant ships, are you impatient?
"Let the captain shout over there to scare them off. Well, use the maritime satellite phone to contact for help, my country's nearest overseas base is in the ......"
The captain of the merchant ship shouted: "Listen to the Indians on the other side, we are American ......"
Da Da Da ...... Dozens of bullets responded to the American merchant ship, Ao Tang whistled, and scolded in the megaphone: "America, your mother, I am Major Obaniu of the Great Indian Coast Guard, this is the Indian Ocean, the territory of our Indians, here, you Americans are a!" β
**οΌ MacArthur trembled with anger, when did the Indians become so arrogant? Indian Ocean? When will it be your turn to speak in the Indian Ocean in Nima? The United States is the world's only maritime hegemon, and the Indian Ocean is also shrouded in the authority of the United States!
"Oba Cow! Well, I remember the name, you send this message back as well, contact our parliamentarians, put pressure on the Indian political axe, I want Oba Niu to hell! β
At this time, the bodyguard reported: "Boss, I took a look, there is only one hovercraft opposite, it should be the H182 of the Indian Coast Guard, and the firepower is very weak." β
The bodyguard is a former U.S. Navy veteran who has previously flown in the Indian Ocean and is no stranger to the equipment of the Indian Navy and Coast Guard.
"What, just one? Hmph, prepare the high-pressure water gun. β
Americans are allowed to carry guns, but there are restrictions when they go abroad, not to mention the relevant provisions of international law that no merchant ships are allowed to carry guns. However, in order to prevent piracy, merchant ships of various countries basically have some self-defense equipment, such as high-pressure water cannons. According to what the bodyguard said, H182's firepower is not fierce, so several merchant ships on his side use high-pressure water cannons, and they may not be able to repel this damn Oba Niu!
Seeing that people appeared on the sides of several merchant ships, and stretched out one high-pressure water dragon after another, Ao Tang was suddenly furious, and the Americans dared to resist? How unreasonable! Instead of using a 12.7mm heavy machine gun, Ao Tang began to set up grenade launchers.
Removed from the Myanmar patrol boat is the American-made MK19 fully automatic grenade launcher, a classic weapon that is still widely equipped in many countries from the 60s to the present. This grenade launcher, using 40mm grenades, has a maximum range of 2200 meters, a box of ammunition of 30 kg and 48 rounds can be fired in one minute, killing within five meters of the firing point, killing within 15 meters, and can penetrate 2-inch armor, which is extremely powerful.
Ao Tang has a lot of strength, and he usually needs two soldiers to use it together, and he can do it all by himself, holding the ammunition with one hand, pulling up the gun carriage with the other, and firing with a click.
"It's MK19!"
The bodyguard exclaimed, as an American retired soldier, he was too familiar with this powerful weapon, and immediately extinguished the mind of confrontation.
"Oh, God willing."
MacArthur's face turned pale, but fortunately, the Indian bandits on the opposite side did not aim at people, but bombarded merchant ships, and the explosions on the ships continued, and they were directly blasted out of a series of holes.
"God, my ship!"
The captain of the merchant ship was distressed and stared at MacArthur with tears in his eyes.
Ao Tang's voice came again: "Stupid Americans, have you seen the great power of our Great India? Humble Americans, merciful Major Obachon gives you a chance to surrender, now, immediately! β
"Damn Oba Cow!" MacArthur cursed, looked at the bodyguard on the left, looked at the captain on the right, everyone turned pale, until the grenade hit again, MacArthur sighed: "Surrender first, the American political axe will come to save us, and ...... in the future"
The captain pinched his nose and shouted, "Damn Oba Cow, uh, honorable Major Oba Cow, we are willing to cooperate." β
Ao Tang laughed, are the American devils also very knowledgeable about current affairs, and yes, I heard that when Somali pirates robbed, the Americans' merchant ships were also robbed.
"You ship with diesel, right? Hand over half of it, well, in a gas drum, put it in a lifeboat, and then you guys go. β
Ao Tang doesn't want to have face-to-face contact with them, and he can pretend to be an Indian by shouting in the air, what if he comes into contact? Unless you are ruthless, you can kill all the Americans on the other side who are not soldiers.
"What? Diesel fuel? [***]β¦β¦β
The captain was going mad, and for some diesel, Nima's actually smashed our ship with a grenade launcher! Shouldn't this group of Indians run out of gas and rob on the spot? And the refueling is not added like this, does that Oba cow understand?
