Chapter 79: Operation Salvation
Chapter 79: Operation Salvation
In the 400-meter obstacle course training of special forces, the results of net climbing are obvious. The 200 marines, one by one, sank their faces, held their breath, and quickly got off the wooden boat.
Under the command of the dragon's teeth, four wooden ships quickly sailed towards the Far East.
The Far East steamship was a black ship, 90 meters long, 13 meters wide, with a deadweight of about 3,500 tons, with three main masts, and two large chimneys in the bow one-third of the ship.
At this moment, in the bow of the Far Eastern steamship, in the lower wheelhouse, a first mate stared at the compass under the dim horse lamp, constantly comparing and making complex calculations on the drawings, so as to determine the direction of sailing.
1.5 minutes later, Long Yue's No. 1 ship and Deng Zhi's No. 2 boat, one left and one right, turned a big bend, and then sailed parallel with the Far East.
One by one, they flew and quickly hooked the side of the Far East.
On the walkie-talkie between the two, Gao Peng's 'everything is normal' spoke from him.
Suddenly, the lookout on the top of the first mast of the Far East, awakened by the sound of the sails fluttering, yawned and stretched.
"Dragontooth Sniper prepare! Dragon's Tooth Sniper Ready! The lookout of the Far East has just woken up, please kill it immediately! Kill now! ”
Gao Peng, who was holding a high-powered night vision telescope, reacted quickly.
Ye Tan in the cab, with a pair of see-through eyes, was observing every move of both sides. Seeing Gao Peng's response, Ye Tan couldn't help but nod secretly.
The environment on the sea is very complicated! The speed of the Far East, coupled with the wind speed constantly cross-cutting, going forward, and going backwards, as well as temperature differences and moisture. At this moment, Zhang Gongyi, the sniper on the mast of Longyue No. 1, and Bu Kui, the sniper on the mast of Deng Zhi's No. 2 ship, are facing the most severe test.
Every second of time is precious. Whether they succeed in sniping is related to the success or failure of boarding.
Both of them are old snipers, and the bullets they have trained to shoot have exceeded 100,000 rounds. They have also been trained in a variety of complex environments.
Ye Tan didn't urge them. The growth of a sniper is to survive the life-and-death struggle of actual combat.
The rescue plan has long been decided, and once the sneak attack on the boarding ship fails, it will be changed to a forced boarding operation.
Just when everyone was anxious, suddenly "Huh! With a bang, the lookout hand on the Far East watchtower, with his body tied, his neck crooked, lay there and did not move.
It's Bukui! He did a great job of sniping missions!
For this tall, stout, taciturn young man who reacts a beat slower than others, Ye Tan has a good impression of him. This person's body movements are a little slower, but what is terrifying is that the reaction of his brain is several times faster than others. After a particularly hard training, his mental arithmetic and motor reactions are highly consistent.
"Give Bu Kui a third-class merit."
Ye Tan said to the temporary correspondent beside him.
At this time, Long Yue and Deng Zhi, as well as Long Ya Biluo and Zou Xuan, immediately ordered their subordinates to quickly climb the boat.
Inside the captain's quarters, Katis had just woken up from a nightmare, drenched in cold sweat.
"Who?!"
"Phew!"
Cutis suddenly saw the window of the ship (I checked the information, the black ship at that time, the bow and stern, there were 4 windows on each side, not the cabin. A flashing shadow, shout! With his right hand, he quickly grabbed the M1831 flintlock pistol next to the pillow and shot it into the window.
"Long Yue, Deng Zhi, as well as Long Ya Biluo and Zou Xuan, there may be changes on the battlefield anytime and anywhere, as long as you can pass this level, you can barely qualify."
Ye Tan felt that this was a good thing for Longyue and them, and it was also a test!
The unlucky Long Yue just happened to wake up with Katis and was almost shot in the head.
Or Instructor Ye said it well: the arrogant soldiers will be defeated! It was because Ye Tan was splashed with cold water on his head that Long Yue escaped because of his caution.
Long Yue, who was holding his breath, picked off a glare bomb with his hand, tore off the pull ring with his teeth, knocked it on his head a few times, and threw it through the window of the boat.
At this moment, the sound of gunfire alarmed the two tall and thin gunmen outside the door, and they rushed in desperately.
At the same time, a glare bullet landed right at their feet.
"Boom!" With a bang, a silver-white dazzling light burst out in an instant.
Cutis, who was among them, heard the sound from the deck, and he was suspicious, and suddenly sensed the extreme danger, and without thinking much about it, he threw himself out of the door.
"Da Da ......"
A shuttle of bullets swept in through the window, sparks collided violently with the deck, and there were several muffled sounds that pierced the muscles!
Two gunmen, killed on the spot!
Katis, who was lucky enough to save his life, crawled and fled to the gunman's dormitory.
On the deck, more than 300 Chinese huddled together on tattered quilts to keep each other warm were also awakened by the sound of gunfire.
Fifteen or sixteen glare bombs fell in unison, and the "boom ......" exploded, shooting out a strong white light!
The large black crowd pressed the chaotic crowd, and the eyes instantly lost focus.
The position of the gunner was instantly captured by the dragon's teeth.
"Phew!"
"Phew!"
……
There was a burst of fire, and on the deck, several foreign gunners who were in charge of keeping watch at night were all killed.
Bi Luo and Zou Xuan led people to break through the window at the stern, as if they were in a no-man's land.
It belonged to the coal stove cabin, and there were 13 Chinese boilermen in it. Everyone was pointed at something that looked like a gun, and they all squatted obediently on the ground, waiting to be dealt with.
Most of them continued to push towards the middle of the cabin.
This part of the area, the 5-meter-high cabin, has been converted into 5 tiers of 1-meter-high compartments, leaving only one aisle in between. It is simply a copy of the slave trade in East India. It was full of girls, or women. Maybe it's because it's still cold and the air isn't that bad.
They are used to the sound of gunfire. Perhaps numb enough to give in to habit. When the soldiers rushed past, only a few of them, opened their eyes and looked up.
Cutis never imagined that less than 100 kilometers from San Francisco, he would encounter pirates.
The weapons they used, Katis was simply unheard of. More than 50 gunman brothers were killed in an instant. There was no way to fight back.
"Katis, the pirate's firepower is terrifying! It's really not good, let's jump into the sea together, maybe there is a glimmer of life! ”
Jett, Katis's partner, said as he loaded his ammo.
"Jett, have you ever seen a pirate dressed like this?"
Katis had a keen instinct, and he always felt as if he was missing something, so he asked.
Jett shook his head vigorously, "You're right to suspect. Even if they weren't pirates, we wouldn't have survived. ”
"Nope! Jett, you didn't look closely. According to the previous practice, if these people were pirates, they would have been eager to catch the women inside. And..."
Katis's keen insight finally came into play, in a word.
The wheelhouse of the Far East, already under control, the ship was stopped.
A huge searchlight on the passenger and cargo ship, hundreds of meters away, shone on the Far East.
More than 300 Chinese, all in tatters, all pale, with eyes full of fear, shivering in the cold wind.
When the Chinese people saw their compatriots in blue, white and blue costumes, holding unknown weapons and exuding a fierce atmosphere, they didn't dare to breathe.
"Don't be afraid, fellows, we're here to save you. There may be a large number of shells on board, and we do not know when the foreigners detonated them. So, please hurry up and transfer. ”
Deng Zhi saw that the once familiar eyes, numbness and fear had penetrated into their bones. So he stood up and said loudly, half comforting, half threatening.
Without waiting for them to agree, he ordered his men to forcibly drag them to the side of the ship, set up rope nets, and let them climb down.
PS: Not in good condition.
