Chapter 276: Preparing for Battle
As night approached the port, Hilong called Kalmar and told him to immediately prepare his manpower to receive the arms. (Top) (dot) novel 23wx
Upon hearing this, Kalmar immediately sent a large number of his men to wait in the natural harbor.
When Helong's ship arrived at the port, hundreds of people pushed wheelbarrows onto the ship, carried all the boxes of munitions into the trucks, and then transported them to the underground passage.
The arms worth 900 million US dollars were transported in just two hours, and Hilong had to admire that this Kalmar's subordinates were indeed very efficient.
After carrying the munitions, Karma wiped the sweat from her forehead, let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Great, it's finally done." ”
Hilong sat beside Karma and said with a smile, "What are you going to do next?" ”
Hearing Helong's question, Karma pointed to the distant land and said with a smile: "Do you know, Dragon King, there are three kings in this land, our ancestors were enemies, and we are still enemies in our generation, I am ready to mobilize my subordinates to provoke wars and secretly train the army." ”
Helong smiled and said, "The plan is good, as long as you defeat those two kings, the entire region will be your area." ”
Karma smiled and said, "Yes, those two women will only be happy to see us kings fighting, which will help them disperse the pressure in the country, but when they find out that I have the ability to defeat both kings and occupy the entire region, they will find that I already have a well-trained army, which is no longer capable of them." ”
Karma spent $600 million, enough to raise an army of 3,000 men to fight a year's war, and Karma's treasure trove still has a large number of treasures, which can give Kalmar enough money.
Hailong understands that Karma's approach is to feed the war with war. Find a reason to go to war, and continue to cultivate the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, so that when the 3,000-strong army has really changed from civilians to an army, it is time for Kalmar to prepare for the establishment of the country.
Besides, Karma also has the support of the twelve rebels in the northeast of Ah San, and it is not very difficult to split the land and become king.
The next morning, Hasina's men came to the port and took 100,000 tons of beef, leaving 50,000 tons for Kalmar.
This allowed Hilong to earn another 1.4 billion yuan, and this time Hailong walked around South Asia and earned 1.9 billion U.S. dollars from selling arms. With more than $100 million in wine and nearly $200 million in beef, Hilong has $2.2 billion in assets.
22 billion US dollars, in 2001, the exchange ratio between RMB and US dollars was 8.2:1, which is converted into RMB 18.04 billion RMB.
The most important thing is that the 18.04 billion yuan is all cash.
In 2001, Forbes released the list of the top 100 richest people in the mainland, and the two Liu brothers with the highest net worth were the two brothers of Oriental Hope, with a total asset value of 8.3 billion yuan.
It is no exaggeration to call him the richest man in the mainland. Looking at the world, Hilong's net worth of 18.04 billion yuan, on the list of the world's richest people, Xiangjiang's little superman ranks 223rd with total assets of 17.2 billion yuan. Hilong's ranking is actually higher than Xiangjiang's little superman.
The most important thing is that Hilong is holding cash in his hand, and with the money in his hand, Hilong has the capital and the old superman of Xiangjiang. When people talk about business cooperation.
After transporting arms and beef, Hailong's trip in South Asia this time was basically over, and the rest was to return to China. After returning to Huaxia, with the assets of 18.04 billion yuan, Hilong is ready to expand its business.
Hilong once said that he wanted to make each of his brothers the captain of the ship, and now Hilong can fulfill this promise.
Hilong also did not expect that he had gained so much from a trip to South Asia, not only obtained 4 smuggling ports, but also obtained such a large smuggling business, and the existing 4 cargo ships were far from meeting their trade needs, and Hilong needed to expand its fleet to fill its rapidly expanding business needs.
In Kalmar's palace, Hailong gathered 24 teenagers from the small fishing village together, looking at the subordinates who worked hard with him back then, and the young faces of the year, in less than two years, they were blown by the sea breeze with more vicissitudes and stability.
Hailong said to everyone: "Starting today, you boss and I are going to buy another 20 ocean-going cargo ships, and you 24 teenagers will each control a cargo ship and become a real captain." ”
Hearing Hailong's words, the teenagers in the small fishing village widened their eyes and looked at Hailong excitedly.
Liu Yongquan jumped up from the stool and said excitedly: "Boss, it's really fake." ”
Looking at the excited Liu Yongquan and the others, Hailong said with a smile: "When did the boss lie to you, what I said, when did it not come true, after going back, the boss will buy a boat, and after three months, each of you will be a real captain." ”
When everyone heard Hailong's words, they instantly erupted into violent cheers, and the young man in the small fishing village never thought that Hailong had really fulfilled the original agreement and made each of them become captains.
Looking at the happy crowd, Hailong continued to announce the letter of appointment, and said with a smile: "Liu Yongan will become the fleet commander of these 24 ships, and when I am not there, everything must obey Liu Yongan, do you understand?" ”
There is no opinion on Liu Yongan being an old public, Liu Yongan has conquered everyone in the small fishing village with his personal charm.
When Hailong was away, Liu Yongan was responsible for all the work on the ship, things were arranged in an orderly manner, and the deployment of personnel was fair and reasonable, so no one had any opinion on Liu Yongan being the captain of the fleet.
After resting at the royal palace in Kalmar that day, Hilong led the crowd towards West Papua, Indonesia, where Alakhan had already called him, and there were enough 200,000 cubic meters of wood.
As the ship sailed in the Bay of Bengal, looking at the calm sea, Hilong's mind kept echoing the words that the red-haired Lilian had said to herself at the Port Phuket Seafarers' Home Hotel.
Lillian told Helong that when she returned from South Asia, she would be attacked by the Seven Families led by the Olich family, and that Helong must be prepared.
These seven smuggling families have always been Hailong's henchmen. As a smuggler, the biggest enemy is not the maritime surveillance ships of various countries, but his own peers.
Since you have chosen the smuggling industry, there will definitely be a day when there will be a fierce fight, and there must be armed forces on each smuggling ship, and in the vast sea, hanging the national flag is a normal businessman, and tearing off the national flag is a pirate.
He killed Olich and other seven smuggling fleets, and the seven families have been tracking it for so long, they must have found out that they did it themselves. Until now, the other party must be waiting for the opportunity.
Waiting for himself to relax his vigilance, he launched a surprise attack on himself, since he knew that these seven families would definitely choose to retaliate, even if they didn't retaliate this time, next time, the other party would come to find trouble for themselves, Hailong decided, it was better to solve the battle at once. Kill these seven families, so that they will not be liquidated afterwards.
Hailong gathered all the high-level leaders of the fleet together, and looked at his subordinates, Xu Bodang and the four of them were all from admirals. At that time, their nickname was the Four Jiao of the East China Sea, and they also had 190 retired Navy soldiers who did not want to die, and in the event of a battle, these people were the main force.
The other side. It is Zhang Fan's 10 special forces, who are good at using various weapons and equipment, and their marksmanship is extremely accurate. The last one is his own small fishing village boy, these 24 people who started with themselves.
Helong said to the crowd, "I have received definite news from your boss that a large group of pirates is going to attack us on our way back. ”
Hearing Hailong's words, Xu Bodang and others were angry at the time, the last time Zhang Fan and others made great contributions and successfully rescued Hailong, so that Zhang Fan and others finally had a feeling of "I worked", so wherever they went, they no longer bowed their heads and were embarrassed, and now they are walking with their heads up, and finally regained the dignity of soldiers.
But Xu Bodang and others are depressed, he has been following the boss for half a year, he has not fought a battle, and he has only been paid for half a year, and his salary is more than 100,000 yuan, which makes Xu Bodang and others embarrassed.
This time there was finally a battle, Xu Bodang and the four of them stood up at that time, like wild dogs on the loose, and said excitedly: "Boss, where is the pirate, don't need him to ambush us, let's take the initiative to find them, I haven't fought a battle for half a year, and I'm suffocated." ”
Hailong was speechless, it seemed that Xu Bodang and the four of them were indeed suffocated, everyone else was thinking about how to avoid the pirates, but these four goods were clamoring to duel with the pirates.
Hailong said with a smile: "Don't worry, when you are fighting, starting today, all the people will distribute weapons and be ready to fight at any time, because I don't know where the other party is hiding, so I can only be on guard first, and when I find the enemy, we will take the initiative to attack and kill them." ”
Xu Bodang said yes to the four of them again and again.
Helong learned the lesson of the last time, and the last time he was able to kill Olikh, it was entirely because he had the help of the dragon king's clone, if it wasn't for the dragon king's clone, plus Olihe's carelessness, he didn't take out the rocket launcher hidden in the labyrinth.
His fleet has no weapons at all, and if he had fought against Olikh's pirate ship, he would have been dead for almost half a year now.
After the last visit to Petrov, in order to guard against attacks from the sea, Hilong specially purchased 200 anti-tank rocket launchers, and equipped each bazooka with 500 rockets, which cost Hilong a total of 6.6 million US dollars.
Hilong also purchased 200 AK-74 automatic rifles, and spent about $3 million for each 3,000 rounds of ammunition, plus other pistols and other small arms, a total of $10 million.
When Petrov learned that it was Hilong who used it himself, he gave a cost price, which is why the price was so low.
After distributing the weapons, let Xu Bodang temporarily take over the command, after all, in professional battles, Xu Bodang is a professional soldier with experience, and he still has to watch from the sidelines.
Xu Bodang didn't expect Hailong to trust him so much, and actually handed over all the commands, and the excited Xu Bodang immediately assured and said: "Boss, don't worry, if you don't destroy these enemies, I'll come to see you." ”
Hailong was speechless, he couldn't imagine that Xu Bodang was so excited that he had made a military order, and it seemed that he couldn't stand it for half a year.
Hailong smiled and said to Xu Bodang and the four of them: "The fleet will be handed over to the four of you, I will go back to the house to rest, unless there is a battle, don't call me." ”
Well, hearing this, Xu Bodang and the others were speechless for a moment, and suddenly remembered the last time the seven waves of pirates wanted to ambush their fleet, but everyone died inexplicably.
Thinking of this, Xu Bodang hurriedly grabbed Hailong and said excitedly: "Boss, don't make any more moves, give our veterans a chance to make meritorious contributions, if we don't fight, we won't have the face to stay on the ship." (To be continued......)
