Chapter 4 All Dead?

"Put the lifeboat and chase!" Lin Xiao said hurriedly.

The big ship, the seafarers on it, is estimated to be more than lucky. There is no vertical landing of helicopters, only lifeboats can be used.

If the hijacking is successful, Somali pirates generally do not kill people, but will escort the crew, force them to the coast, and then use the hostages and the cargo on board to demand ransom.

Of course, if the negotiation does not go well, it is necessary to kill a few crew members to make an example. If they encounter fierce resistance, or even cause their casualties, then they will either suppress them with bazookas, and then storm the ship, kill all the hostages, and resell the ship's goods; Or, occasionally, a strong attack will not be successful, so you have to retreat in disgrace.

When encountering a fleet escorted by warships, most of the time they can only sigh, but on the busiest shipping lanes in the world, about 50,000 ships of all kinds pass by every year, and there are countless ships that pass by every day, and only a few ships can join the escort fleet after all, and most of the ships are always alone, this is their best prey, and they have no shortage of opportunities.

Pity those sea-going sailors who are begging for a living at sea, because of the rule that the crews of civilian ships are not allowed to carry weapons, every time they encounter these pirates, they have to face a life and death test like lambs to the slaughter.

……

"Capture those two speedboats, then pursue, flank back and forth, board the ship quickly, rescue the hostages, and act quickly!" Lin Xiao loudly urged his subordinates who were working intensively.

"Team Lin, shall I go with you? It could be that one. Li Tao, who had walked to the side, looked at Lin Xiao and said softly, as he spoke, he pulled out a Gluck pistol from his waist, skillfully withdrew from the magazine and checked the bullet, and then slapped it into the magazine, and pulled the bolt with a click, and the bullet was loaded.

"Okay." Lin Xiao stared at him and said.

As an engine-activated mobile lifeboat entered the water, eight members of the special combat team and Li Tao quickly disembarked along the soft ladder, boarded the lifeboat, and sailed to the two speedboats floating on the sea. There were 10 people in the team, and only the machine gunners Li Hanzhi and Xia Bomin of the fire team were left on guard.

……

"Puff, puff, puff"

Pushing the three pirate corpses into the sea, Ding Shuai inspected the rocking hull. Fortunately, several bullet holes were all above the waterline.

Turned around and gave the captain a thumbs up, then "boomed" the engine, sat in the stern, held the helm, slammed the throttle, the speedboat raised its bow and quickly sailed to the lifeboat, this is a fiberglass hull speedboat, equipped with a huge horsepower engine, the fastest speed can be close to 70 kilometers per hour, much faster than the lifeboat on the tanker.

On another speedboat, Duan Zhenghong was dejected to find that the boat was leaking, with two machine gun bullet holes rapidly entering the water, and the water in the cabin was already up to his ankles.

Duan Zhenghong waved his hand to Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao gestured to him, signaled him to drive the ship back to the tanker for recovery, and then took Zhang Chenfeng, Zhu Yujia and Li Tao to Ding Shuai's speedboat, and let Xiao Kaifeng take Liu Xulei and Xu Tianshi to stay in the lifeboat, and the two small boats quickly sailed to the unlucky container ship in front of them.

Duan Zhenghong tried to pull down the engine, but it could still start, so he pulled out the dagger from the outside of his calf, cut off a sleeve from the corpse of a pirate, and then kicked the corpse into the sea, cut the cloth into two strips, rolled it into strips, and plugged it into the gun hole of the cabin, and then slowly refueled the gas pedal and slowly drove the speedboat back to the tanker......

……

When the speedboat turned the container ship at high speed, it was found that the two speedboats were fleeing towards the coast at full speed with their heads held high, and they were already far out of range.

Lin Xiao glanced at Li Tao, Li Tao nodded and put away his mobile phone.

Along the way, he was shooting videos of what happened on the container ship, and his professional habits dictated that he had to try his best to take pictures to collect evidence and collect information for the case at hand.

Even though it was already getting dark, they all saw the name of the ship looming on the side of the ship, "Dragon Rising".

It's this ship that is checked, and you have to go up and see it.

Lin Xiao made a gesture to Zhu Yujia and Zhang Chenfeng: "You follow me", turned his head and made a covering gesture to Ding Shuai, and Zhu Yujia and Zhang Chenfeng stretched out their thumbs to show their understanding.

Then I saw Ding Shuai raising a gun and pointing at the side of the ship to guard, while Lin Xiao and Zhu Yujia took out a pair of steel claws from the tactical backpack, threw them up with a "whoosh" and shook the rope gently, and the steel claws were eaten with a soft sound of nails. Then he took a light breath, grabbed the rope with both hands and rose into the air, turned over cleanly and neatly on the side of the ship, squatted steadily on the side of the ship, and then quickly operated the gun, the butt of the gun was on the shoulder, and the passage at the bow and stern of the ship was guarded, and he waved forward with a knife in a moment, indicating that he could get on the boat.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Chenfeng also turned over and got on the boat, threw down the rope, and then squatted beside him to guard with a gun. Li Tao's movements on the boat were also neat, Zhang Chenfeng gave him a thumbs up, he smiled, then pulled out his pistol, rushed into the passage, and chased along Lin Xiao's assault route.

At this time, Lin Xiao had already burst into the cockpit with a gun. Then he saw three bloody corpses. Lin Xiao's heart was cold, his heart was bad, and as soon as he turned around, Li Tao and the others also came in.

"Check the living quarters." Lin Xiao ordered Zhu Yujia and Zhang Chenfeng, who were stunned, and the two turned to leave.

"Li, I guess there is no life." Lin Xiao turned his head and said to Li Tao.

"Do they do it often? Hijacking doesn't make it happen? Li Tao gasped and said in a deep voice. As a senior intelligence officer, disguised reconnaissance is his forte, and in terms of counter-terrorism experience alone, he is not as rich as a special combat unit.

"To be honest, just now on the road, I vaguely heard gunshots, and I had a bad premonition." Lin Xiao said lightly.

"You can hear the gunshots just when the motor is so noisy?" Li Tao said angrily. Observing words and listening to sounds is also his forte, why didn't he hear it?

Lin Xiao smiled faintly, didn't speak, stepped forward to look at the dead body, pointed to a corpse and said, "There is something wrong with this person." ”

Li Tao stepped forward to watch, three male Asian corpses, one about 50 years old, and two middle-aged people about 40 years old. Strangely, one of the men was different, the other two were wearing crew uniforms, the older one was undoubtedly the captain, and the younger one was probably the first or second officer on duty.

And the one Lin Xiao was referring to was wearing a suit.

"I guess I'm walking with you," Li Tao immediately understood, smiled and said. Those who can enter the cockpit in civilian clothes are either official representatives or important cargo guards.

"Whose pool of blood is this?" Lin Xiao squatted at the door on the other side of the cockpit and observed, there was a pool of blood there.

"yes, there is no sign of any of these three bodies being dragged." Li Tao also came over and squatted down.

Lin Xiao stood up and pulled out the bayonet on his leggings, turned around and pried out a bullet embedded in the bulkhead.
