Chapter 110: Spectating the Battle

As the speedboat approached, the outline of the Sailing became clearer and clearer, and I looked at it from a distance with the binoculars, and around it there were more than two dozen fishing boats, large and small, adjusting the multiples of the telescopes, and I saw that the bows of the ships were covered with pirates with weapons in their hands, and they had surrounded the freighters.

"Captain, look at the biggest ship, the sign on the mast, they are Somali sailors." The immortal bird points to the largest of the fishing boats.

I looked around and saw a pirate flag with a black skull on the mast, the flag of the Somali sailors.

"Remember the woman who assassinated me? She said Somali sailors were preparing an operation that appeared to be targeting the Voyage. "I suddenly remembered what the girl had said, and this was probably the action they had been planning two days earlier.

"They're going to do it." The immortal bird said lightly.

I saw that those pirates suddenly all raised their guns in their hands, and it seemed that the conversation had collapsed, this was the inevitable result of the Han family's merchant ship would not sit still, there were a lot of escorts on the ship, and they were all equipped with weapons, so it was impossible to obey.

"Captain, are we going to do it?" Rakshasa had already loaded the computer into her backpack and picked up her rifle.

"Wait a minute, the Han family's freighter is not so easy to hijack." As soon as he finished speaking, a gunshot rang out, and although it was not close, the sound of gunfire still reached my ears in the wind.

I saw a pirate fall from the bow of the ship, and a stone stirred up a thousand waves, and a misfire immediately plunged the two sides into a fierce battle.

The steamer did not turn off its ignition, and as it sailed forward, the people on board fired back, and the pirates opened fire one after another, dozens of ships, hundreds of people, fired wildly at the steamer.

Gunshots rang out like beans, and in an instant, the city was in flames, and from time to time pirates were shot from the bow of the ship into the water, and I saw pirates coming out of the cabin with RPGs and firing rockets at the freighter.

Flames continued to rise from the huge freighter, and an explosion was deafening, and waves exploded on the water, and black smoke billowed from the cargo hold on the ship.

"They won't last long." The undead watched the freighter being besieged, the difference in firepower between the two sides was too great, and once the pirates boarded the ship, it was all over.

"Do we want to help them, if Han Qijiang falls into the hands of pirates, it will be difficult to get him out again." Rakshasa stood behind me and whispered.

I didn't speak, just paid attention to the battlefield, the merchant ships of private enterprises could not be equipped with heavy weapons, they could only spend money to find mercenaries to escort them, at most there were two light machine guns, and the mercenaries seemed powerless in the face of the indiscriminate bombardment of pirate rocket launchers.

Although they are still fighting back, and from time to time pirates are shot and fall into the water, but they are only fighting the trapped beasts, the freighter has been surrounded by pirates, and if they can't fight like this, they have to turn off the fire and surrender, otherwise they will face the danger of sinking the ship.

The deck was filled with fire, thick smoke billowed from the black smoke, and in the black smoke there was constant flashing of gunfire, and they kept counterattacking, but the difference in numbers was too great, and no matter where they shot, they would immediately be crushed by the fire of a dozen rifles, and then they would face rocket attacks.

I saw that at least three people had already been swept up into the sky and fallen into the water by the blast wave of the explosion, and the counterattack on the ship was gradually weakening.

"Captain, the pirates are starting to try to board the ship." The immortal bird said.

I took the binoculars and looked to the left, and there were already two pirate ships on the side of the freighter, and they hooked the railing on the side of the freighter with their hooks, and there was a rope attached underneath, and two pirates were climbing up with the rope.

Not far behind were three pirate ships, and a dozen pirates took turns shooting at the ships to cover the boarding of pirates.

Obviously, these guys have gone through countless drills, the pirates who boarded the ship moved quickly and quickly, and the pirates in charge of covering kept firing, suppressing the escorts who were outcropping above, and they cooperated with each other tacitly, in one go, without dragging their feet.

It is no wonder that the Somali sailors have become the largest pirate regiment in the Gulf of Aden, and in terms of the fighting qualities of these personnel, they are much stronger than the Puntland Guards.

Apparently after rigorous training in water warfare, I heard that their leader, Efuya, often spent a lot of money to hire some professional mercenaries as instructors, selected some young and strong pirates for special training, and cultivated a group of strong pirate gangs, and also called himself a Somali marine, and also made himself a naval commander.

These should be his so-called pirate elites, their skills are really good, a bit of a marine, that Efuya is not a simple character, some strategic minds, the money is not spent in vain, those mercenaries did teach some useful things.

However, it was not so easy to board the Han family freighter, although there were more than a dozen pirates behind him, but the first two pirates to go up were blown off their heads as soon as they appeared, and their bodies fell backwards and fell into the sea.

But as there were casualties on board, and the sound of counterattacks became quieter and quieter, the pirates began to board the ship in full force, and there were pirate ships approaching in all three directions except the bow, and people were constantly climbing up in the same way.

The pirates even used a large number of rockets, as long as someone showed their heads to return fire, they bombarded it, and the hull was damaged in many places, and the situation became more and more serious.

"Captain, how are you thinking about it? Once the pirates are on board, we don't stand a chance. "The immortal bird reminded me again.

Slowly put down the binoculars, the reason why I didn't do it for a long time was that I wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and when they were almost done, we were sitting and reaping the profits, so as to minimize casualties.

My biggest fear is that my brothers will be hurt because of my personal problems, and I will feel guilty for the rest of my life, so I have to minimize the danger of the mission before I can do it, and that is now.

We could see the pirates, and the pirates could see us, and there was always a fishing boat on the lookout for us, and they didn't know if the speedboat parked not far away was friend or foe, but they were confident that no one would dare to oppose them in this area, so there were only two or three pirates on that boat.

"Attention, everyone, drive at full speed, rush up as fast as possible, solve the battle in two minutes, kill them all, not a single one, remember, I don't want anyone to go back and report the news, it will seem that we are very incompetent, understand?" I spoke into the microphone and gave the order to go to war.

“yessir!” The brothers replied in unison.

"Warriors, are you ready to fight?" I yelled.

"Phew—"

“showtime!”

With an order, the five speedboats attacked at full speed, roaring away like sharp swords, riding the wind and waves, flying by, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of the alert ships.

Without a pause, the speedboat sped past the pirate ship, and at the moment of brushing shoulders, two grenades were thrown into the cabin, and when we rushed out twenty meters away, there were two loud rumbles behind us, and the pirate ship blew up on the sea.

The pirates who were boarding the ship stopped moving when they heard the explosion and turned their heads to look this way, and before they could see what was going on, we were already approaching, and the speedboat did not stop, but quickly passed by the pirate ships.
