"What's going on?"

"Someone has been arranged to investigate, and the results should be available soon, but the results may not be optimistic." Xi Yunsong's face is also not very good-looking, last time Boyuan was stolen new medicine, and the transportation company was overshadowed once, although the country was behind it later, but this time two cargo ships carrying important materials were hijacked near Somalia, which is definitely a big deal.

"I want to know the latest progress in the shortest possible time, and immediately arrange for someone to go to the homes of all the crew members on this ship to comfort these people." Liu Tao's first reaction was that these pirates were definitely not for money, they should have another purpose. If other freighters are hijacked, Liu Tao feels that it doesn't matter, the key is that the two freighters have a batch of important materials that Boyuan wants to hand over to the country, once these materials are exposed, it will definitely cause a violent international backlash.

"Yes, boss, when I first received the news, someone from the transport company had already sent someone to do it, and in addition, our escort fleet also sent a message saying that they would rescue our company's freighter at any cost. In addition, the people above have just called, as long as we Boyuan maintain an attitude in this matter, they will give us the greatest support, and if necessary, they can implement a certain amount of military pressure. ”

"They're going to do it, and I need to keep up to date with what's going on and let me know as soon as there's any news."

"I see, boss."

Liu Tao thought about it and walked towards the hotel, and at the same time asked Alpha to secretly send a fish-man force to find out the situation, if Liu Tao wanted to get the boat back, it would be too easy. It's just that in this way, Boyuan is bound to expose more secrets. Boyuan has exposed enough secrets, Mu Xiu is still aware of the truth that Lin Feng will destroy it, at this time Liu Tao will not let himself become the target of public criticism, now is the time for Boyuan to expand aggressively, and he must not be able to cause so much trouble, especially now that the international community is so sensitive.

Liu Tao came to the hotel, had a simple lunch with Zhang Qian, and got on the plane to the capital in the afternoon. On the surface, these two freighters are transporting some civilian materials, but the real core things are also in these civilian materials. Liu Tao didn't believe that these robbers were going for money, if they used to be because they didn't have enough to eat. So now this question no longer exists.

Boyuan Group is in the name of the Chinese government. Almost half sold and half given to Africa enough grain, of course, they paid a lot of prices, and now many of their domestic mines have been classified under the banner of Boyuan, but compared with the price of grain exported abroad. The price of these grains is definitely excellent value for money. Boyuan Group has a good reputation in Africa. Although not much substantive was done. But food alone is enough to make those in Africa who are struggling on the death line grateful to Dade, and it is precisely because of this self-confidence that Liu Tao refused the escort of the navy along the way.

In the waters off Somalia, even with the Chinese government's enough food imports. But that little bit of food can't solve any problem in that barren land, and the people there have formed a habit, and it is a habit that is difficult to break when it is formed. There is also an international mixed fleet escorting in that area, and China has four warships plus a comprehensive supply ship and a hospital ship there, and nothing has happened in the past, but this time there was an accident.

"You're here, come with me, Number One is waiting for you in the office." Xia Mingyu also knew that Liu Tao was coming, so he waited at the airport early, Liu Tao saw his car as soon as he got off the plane, and the two just said hello and drove towards Zhongnanhai.

Along the way, Xia Mingyu also had a gloomy face, at least half of the responsibility for the occurrence of this incident was his, his subordinates were not able to get effective information in time, and this transportation plan was proposed by him, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, use the transportation of Boyuan Group as a cover, after all, the total amount of Boyuan's maritime transportation this year has reached hundreds of thousands of tons, and they are all some irrelevant materials, absolutely no one would have thought that this time they used the transport fleet of Boyuan Group to play a cover, But this time there was a problem.

"Is that thing on the boat?"

"Yes, my men personally brought them on board." Liu Tao sat in the co-pilot's seat, and Liu Tao now seemed to feel the pressure brought by the company's senior management to the loss of the company's destructive weapon by the protagonist's company in the Batman movie, but it was a movie after all, and this was indeed real.

"What are the chances that that thing will be discovered?"

"At least in the short term, they won't be able to find out, and I'm afraid something will happen if it drags on for a long time. If it's just them, it's still safe within two months, but if it's someone who cares, it's hard to say. The time given by Liu Tao made Xia Mingyu also greatly relieved, once these things leaked out, then Huaguo may really face the biggest crisis since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

"But don't worry, if it gets to the point of no return, I can make the ship self-destruct, but I must rescue my people." Liu Tao gave a sentence that made Xia Mingyu more reassuring, as long as things are not exposed, then everything will be much easier.

Xia Mingyu didn't continue to ask, but drove towards the place where the core of the country was located, and Xia Mingyu drove in directly after checking his documents at the door. When Liu Tao followed Xia Mingyu towards the inside, he could obviously feel that the anger in it was much heavier, there were many admirals and colonels who appeared in Zhongnanhai, and everyone saw Xia Mingyu and Liu Tao looking at the two of them with a strange look, what kind of power did this young man have, because the two freighters were hijacked, and almost the entire Admiralty was shaken.

"Here, sit down." Liu Tao walked into the house and saw a room full of generals in white naval uniforms, his face was also a little surprised, and No. 1 hurriedly beckoned Liu to sit down.

"Tell me about it."

"There is no update on the situation, and our company has not received any requests from them, which is what I am most afraid of. The lack of requirements is the scariest part. Liu Tao sat down and was not polite, many people in this Liu Tao have seen, this time the matter is not an ordinary thing, Liu Tao will never dare to hold it up, he can only say whatever he wants.

"This is also what I am afraid of, if the other party has any demands, we can solve them, but in this kind of non-demand is the most frightening place." No. 1 also nodded solemnly, if the other party wants a ransom or any other conditions, it can be negotiated and settled, but the other party has not put forward any conditions now, and there is no news from the embassy.

"My people have already gone to negotiate. In the past six months, my people still have a little face over there. But until I came in, word came that I hadn't seen their leader. ”

No. 1's face became even more heavy after hearing this, Boyuan's expansion trend this year was very fast, but it was very methodical, relying on technology and the support of unlimited funds and resources. In one year, Boyuan has grown from a baby to a strong man. Especially on that part of Africa. Boyuan's influence is not insignificant, if even Boyuan doesn't get the news, plus the embassy, I'm afraid no one will be able to get more accurate information.

"Chairman. My people haven't received any support from anyone behind this operation at this time, and I've activated a few veteran shadows in the hope of getting some useful information. Xia Mingyu nodded and said to No. 1, while looking at the other middle-aged man in a green military uniform sitting behind, who smiled at Liu Tao.

No. 1 looked at the middle-aged man, the middle-aged man shook his head and didn't speak, No. 1's face became even more solemn, and Liu Tao also looked at the middle-aged man, the middle-aged man always smiled at Liu Tao, as if he was an acquaintance, but Liu Tao never remembered seeing this person there.

"Do you have any plans over there?"

"We don't have a rescue plan for the time being, but we can rescue ourselves if we need to, but we may need a naval escort on the way back." Liu Tao has an elite mercenary team outside, this information is only known to a few high-level officials, this is not a big deal, many rich people in China have their own escort team, and they have their own armed bodyguards abroad, this world is not a world of good men and women, there is not enough strength to protect themselves, and the rich are undoubtedly fat sheep in the eyes of some people.

"Our convoy can be dispatched, but it needs a reason."

Liu Tao looked at the white-haired admiral who was speaking, and the general also nodded at Liu Tao. Liu Tao knows a lot of people on the navy's side, especially the young people who have made a lot of friends with the navy in the past six months, and the young people who let the navy's flying sharks eliminate are definitely the ones who are listed in the Admiralty. The many admirals also gave Liu Tao a firm signal that as long as the Boyuan Group needed it, their navy could be dispatched, but the division must be famous, and they needed to issue a statement above that the navy could not act without authorization.

"Is the strength of the escort fleet enough?"

"It's not enough, but our navy can hold an exercise, and now the aircraft carrier test ship has not been recovered outside, so we can take this opportunity to test the results of our training." The admiral's tone was very firm, with the purification technology of the Boyuan Group, coupled with the Tiger Shark's installation, super combat performance, even on the aircraft carrier that was about to be decommissioned, it showed sharp fangs, and they needed a subject to test the results of the training.

"With the abundant supply of aviation fuel in the past six months, our lads have made great progress, many levels have risen several levels, and the personnel in all positions of the fleet have been fully trained, and we need a chance to test it."

His words were very straightforward, everyone here understood, especially the faces of those admirals were eager to try, the fuel problem that plagued them in the past six months has been solved, and the intensity of training is several times that of before, and it is not the kind of shrunken training before, but let go of the training of hands and feet. Fighter jets take off tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, plus the maintenance of fighters, the consumption of fuel, food and drink and other materials for sailing at sea, the funds required for a training trip to sea are definitely a terrifying number, but fortunately, Boyuan's fuel has saved them a lot of money.

"We need a chance to test ourselves."

"What do you think?" No. 1 didn't make a decision lightly, but looked at several other people, wanting to ask for their opinions, and everyone looked at each other first, but they didn't make a decision.

The generals of the navy all looked at Liu Tao, and their eyes were clearly to tell Liu Tao that you came out and said a few words, but it is impossible for Liu Tao to speak about this kind of national event, and he has no right to speak, even if the above attaches great importance to him, it does not mean that he can participate in the resolution of this kind of major event. Everyone can see what the purpose of this training is, and if it is not handled well, it is very likely to cause panic in the international community, and you must know that the nerves of all countries are tense now, and how many undercurrents are hidden under the seemingly peaceful world can only be understood by these people sitting in high positions.

"Chairman, we need a chance to prove ourselves, and we need a chance to test the results." No. 1 looked at the admiral and didn't seem to expect the admiral's tone to be so resolute, and the other admirals also looked at No. 1 with a determined face, expecting him to give this order.

"Are you really ready?"

"Always be ready!" This game was the shouts of all the soldiers present, everyone stood there in the most standard military posture and shouted loudly, and even the officers standing outside took the initiative to stand up straight and wait for orders.

"Yes, you need a chance, and I don't need a chance to test my army." Number One motioned for everyone to sit down, but none of the generals sat down, and they heard the news they wanted from the Chairman's words, and it was definitely the news they had always dreamed of.

"Since you are going to conduct exercises, then your navy cannot monopolize this leader, otherwise the army and air force will say that my family is biased, and those people have complained to me a lot in the past six months." No. 1 smiled and said to everyone, his meaning was already obvious, to exercise the full movement of the navy, land and air force, this is definitely a large-scale exercise, and everyone did not expect that at this juncture, their boss would make such a big determination.

"Chairman, is this really good?" The prime minister is still a little worried that a large-scale military exercise will definitely touch the sensitive nerves of the whole world, especially at this time.

"What's so good, this year's National Day is going to be a military parade, before the parade, I want to see what is wrong with my army, let the general staff make a plan, the navy, land and air force are all mobilized, the army dispatches three military regions, the navy's South China Sea Fleet, the North Sea Fleet, the Yellow Sea Fleet, as for the air force, in terms of quantity, their staff department will make a plan, and implement it as much as possible."

"Yes!" (To be continued......)
