Chapter 329: Windfall

readx; "Hehe, that's not the pirate's work at all, the pirates don't have that strong armed force. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info," Bartoli said.

"Do you know who did it? As long as you tell me something, I'll consider giving you a way out. Shen Yi smiled.

"Really?" Bartoli asked.

"Of course, you don't pose any threat to me now, and there's no value in holding you up." Shen Yi Zhengse said.

"I think it was done by the HSP guerrillas who were active near Mogadishu." Bartoli said.

"HSP guerrillas? Did you understand? Shen Yi asked.

"I don't know very well, this is a guerrilla force that has risen rapidly in the civil war in the past two years, once occupied the area around Mogadishu and controlled hundreds of kilometers of coastline, but recently, because of the attack by the United Nations peacekeeping forces, the losses are not small, and the funds are tight, so I had to start a pirate business and hijack your freighter." Bartoli said.

"And where do you think the Forward should be hijacked now?" Shen Yi asked again.

"It should be at the port near Mogadishu, but after such a long time, I'm afraid your cargo has already been transported and digested by the HSP organization." Bartoli said.

"Damn! If you dare to rob me of something, you must make them pay! Shen Yi said coldly.

"I'll tell you everything I know, you can do it!" Bartoli said.

"Very well, Mr. Bartoli, you will squat in your own prison for a few days, and then consider releasing you when I have found the Advance and recovered my goods." Shen Yi said.

At this time, Wei Tie walked into the house and whispered to Shen Yi: "Shen Dong, I just took someone to turn over Black Shark Island, but I didn't find our goods, it seems that the Advance was not robbed by them." ”

"I already knew, given the scale of this group of pirates, they would have the strength to hijack the Advance?" Shen Yi sneered.

"Still, I had a bit of a bonus." Wei Tie smiled: "I found ten Seychellois businessmen in prison, all of whom were hostages taken by Bartoli, and also found two of their hijacked cargo ships on the dock, which belonged to the Seychelles Karon Transport Company. ”

"I know, I will contact President France immediately, just now Battori explained that our advance may have been hijacked by the HSP guerrillas, I will now give you a mission, go to the guerrilla activity area near Mogadishu to investigate secretly, but pay attention to safety." Shen Yi said.

"Okay, I'll take someone to disguise himself as a detective." Wei Tie said.

Two days later, Shen Yi received a report from Wei Tie, who said that there was no trace of the Advance at all, and the entire freighter seemed to have disappeared, and there was no trace at all.

Shen Yi knew that using his own strength might not be enough, so he immediately called Chai Guodong, the ambassador of Huaxia to Kenya, and reported to him the clues about Batory's confession.

"Mr. Shen, the information you provided is very important, I will contact the intelligence department of our Huaxia peacekeeping force in Somalia and ask them to send someone to investigate immediately." Chai Guodong said.

At the request of the United Nations, Huaxia sent a peacekeeping force to Mogadishu in Somalia to maintain law and order in the area together with other United Nations peacekeeping forces.

At present, the Somali political axe can only control part of the capital, Mogadishu, and the rest of the territory is controlled by warlords and guerrillas of all stripes, and the situation is very chaotic.

That afternoon, Shen Yi had a phone call with Seychelles President Frans at the request.

"Old friend, I heard that you have formed an armed convoy, right?" Frans asked straight to the point.

"Yes. Alas, there is no way, some time ago, one of my 10,000-ton ocean-going freighters 'Qianjian' was just robbed by pirates, and I lost more than 100 million yuan! My Tianyi Island receives raw materials from all over the world every day, and it is necessary to build a strong armed escort formation at all times. Shen Yi smiled.

"Oh, how is your escort formation?" Frans asked tentatively.

"It's okay, one capital ship, two landing ships, two missile boats, and five large patrol boats." Shen Yi said.

"Yes, to tell you the truth, the strength of your fleet surpasses that of our Seychelles Coast Guard, even with the navies of several surrounding island countries, such as Comoros, Maldives, Mauritius and even Madagascar, you are not your opponent!" Franz said in a shocked tone.

"Really? My main purpose is to protect my own fleet, and I don't interfere with the river water with everyone. Shen Yi smiled.

"Old friend, but I have to beg you something, piracy has been rampant in the waters near our country and Somalia recently, and two days ago two cargo ships of our country were hijacked and ten hostages were taken, and the losses are too great! Can you find a way to help us get the ship back, and we'll send the Coast Guard to fight and pay you a lot of money, what do you think? Frans asked with a smile.

"We are all old friends, and it is right to help each other." Shen Yi suddenly had an idea, and hurriedly said: "Mr. President, I just wiped out a group of pirates on Black Shark Island and rescued ten hostages and two cargo ships, which is very consistent with the hijacking incident you said, is it them?" ”

"Are the two cargo ships part of the Seychelles Karon Transport Company?" Frans asked eagerly.

"That's right!" Shen Yi said affirmatively.

"Haha, what a coincidence! I immediately sent the Coast Guard to pick them up. Don't worry, I'll bring you a million-dollar honorarium. Frans Lang laughed.

"No, it's so infuriating, it's just a gesture, if I ask for your reward, then won't I also become a pirate who extorts ransom?" Shen Yilang said with a smile.

"Hehe, this money is a bounty offered by the Caron Company, whoever can help them rescue the hostages and the ship will be given a reward of one million dollars, in fact, this is a very good deal for them, do you know what the price offered by the pirates? Ten million dollars! Frans laughed.

"Bartoli, this kid has a big appetite!" Shen Yi muttered to himself.

"Mr. Shen, it's up to you to fight the pirate organizations in the nearby waters." Franz said.

"No problem, eliminating the hidden danger of pirates is also the key to ensuring the normal operation of Tianyi Island."

Since the hijacking of the Advance, Shen Yi has made up his mind to eliminate the nearby pirates first, and his ocean-going cargo ships must eliminate this hidden danger by transporting raw materials to Tianyi Island every day.

How to fight pirates? This is a conundrum before him.

Shen Yi is not afraid of short-term contact with pirates, the pirates who are active in this area are very small in scale, and they are all fighting maritime guerrilla warfare, which is scattered in Somalia and surrounding countries, and it is very difficult to catch them all.
