Volume III Aftermath 25 Arms Trade and Persian Gulf Pirates

Secretly smuggling arms to the Egyptian waffles was not an easy task, but it was not a problem for Situ Nan

As the world's largest arms dealer, wherever there is war, the Bethlehem United Company will always be present all over the world.

Savvy arms representatives always have a way of providing attentive service to their customers under various guises, even for airplanes and warships, as long as the price is right.

This kind of thing is often done by Bethlehem in Latin America, and it is familiar with it. Occasionally, they can be found in Asia. After receiving Situ Nan's instructions, the Bethlehem Company immediately cleaned up the "garbage" in the warehouse.

After the war, the Bethlehem Company, not to mention the battleships on the slipway, had 200,000 M1903 spring rifles in its warehouse, in addition to countless ammunition. There are also hundreds of cannons that can equip 2 American artillery divisions, and even more so mortars that will show off in positional warfare. The equipment was brand new and was mothballed before it was put into the war.

In order to implement the Nanyang plan, the greedy Situ Nan also hinted that the Bethlehem Company and the American Chinese Company cooperated to secretly dispose of some of the millions of used old guns and cannons that had been decommissioned by the United States, and added those new goods that had not had time to be delivered to the front line, Situ Nan hoarded 400,000 rifles, thousands of machine guns and hundreds of cannons.

If history had not changed, these stocks would have been turned over again in World War II 20 years later and used to favor the allies such as Britain and China.

Although it is not possible to sell all of these arms at once, it is still possible to export most of them to foreign countries quietly or openly in ten or eight years.

As a result, some of the hundreds of thousands of expensive "garbage" were secretly transported to a secret base in Indonesia, in addition to being used to arm Gomez in Venezuela. Now there is a new destination - the Middle East.

When Situ Nan left Egypt, a merchant ship loaded with guns and ammunition took the South Pacific route from Venezuela via the Panama Canal, arrived at the island of Sumatra, unloaded most of the munitions, loaded with pepper jokes and other goods, and continued along the Indian Ocean into the Middle East.

Well, those remaining munitions are enough to equip an army of 10,000 people. A month later, when the Egyptians traded in the Red Sea, they could not afford to be stunned

They took the old arms and began to dwell on the British for two or three years. In the end, he finally won the country's general independence. That's an afterword

It's almost a one-shot deal. Because the British will always know that the source of the arms is the United States. However, Situ Nan is not afraid, it is a big deal that the two sides will have a war of words, and finally make diplomatic guarantees such as no longer interfering in Yunyun.

Now that the United States has begun to corrupt the British colonial system all over the world, don't look at the Americans' return to isolationism, which is just a political gesture, in fact, the economic power of the United States is taking advantage of the loopholes of the British Empire all the time.

Situ Nan's accidental intervention in the Middle East is just a microcosm of the international plunder of the US multinational consortium.

Before the British could pay attention, before the delivery to the Egyptians, Situ Nan finally arrived at the Persian Gulf, the world's energy center.

Situ Nan noticed that after the William entered the Persian Gulf, there were very few ships in the Persian Gulf, and the largest ships were generally about four or five thousand tons.

The desolate and sparse Persian Gulf stands in stark contrast to the busy Suez Canal.

Although it is not too closed and backward, compared with the Mediterranean or Atlantic routes, the Persian Gulf is like an old and decrepit yellow-faced woman abandoned by men.

Situ Nan scratched his head, feeling as if he had come to the wrong place, because the luxurious William entered the Persian Gulf like a rich lady walking into a slum, looking so stark and out of place.

Situ Nan didn't know if the Arabian pirates were powerful or not, but he felt a little awkward when he saw the envious and even greedy expressions of the fishermen on the fishing boats passing by.

When Han Gang reported to Situ Nan that a small boat had been following him, Situ Nan smiled, determined to teach those dirty pirates an unforgettable lesson.

There are really guys who are not afraid of death. On a night with a day's worth of travel from Kuwait, three pirate ships came out on the ocean

Three small steamers of several hundred tons quietly approached the William in the night. However, when he was five hundred meters away from the William, the searchlights on the William suddenly appeared.

Situ Nan saw from the window a pirate ship rushing straight towards it, with several machine guns set up on the bow, and a group of Arab pirates standing on the deck, with their weapons fingered, scimitars and guns, wrapped in headcloths.

Under the light of the flickering searchlights, Situ Nan looked a little proud when he saw those people with cruel smiles on their faces.

It's a disgusting bunch of garbage

Situ Nan scolded in his heart.

It's no wonder that the dilapidated Persian Gulf is not like the Suez Canal and the Mediterranean Sea after all, and there are British ** ships patrolling everywhere, so there is still room for pirates to survive in the Persian Gulf. Coupled with the turbulent situation in the region, many people have been forced to survive and have fallen into the water.

Pirates, in the Persian Gulf in 1919, were a relatively lucrative job.

It's a pity that these guys tonight won't have their lives even if they have money. There were two hundred sailors on board, most of whom were armed and trained, as well as 50 elite bodyguards brought with Situ Nan. It's absolutely no problem for these bodyguards to be ten at a time.

The William was equipped with five rapid-fire guns of 20 calibers, twenty machine guns, a batch of rifles, and a melee magic Thompson submachine gun.

As soon as the pirates were discovered, the besiegers on the ship set up their defenses and pointed their guns at the pirates who were in no doubt.

"Young master, go back to your room! It's dangerous here," Lin Yimin advised. His expression looked stern, and he looked at Situ Nan with some concern.

"Stoney, I heard that there are a lot of pirates out there?" Laura suddenly came in and asked, her face a little pale, holding her son Little Andy in her arms.

The little one had just slept and seemed very energetic, stretching out his little hand and waving it continuously, while shouting babbling that only he could hear. I don't know what's going on outside.

ff8: "It's okay. They were quickly sent away. Situ Nan smiled slightly, walked over and hugged Laura's mother and son into his arms, and comforted, "Take Andy to the room first, and then come out when it's over, I'll have me." ”

Seeing Laura go back to the room under the escort of the bodyguards, Situ Nan breathed a sigh of relief. It was a window position, and he was afraid that something would happen to them if they stayed, in case a stray bullet came over?????

Situ Nan picked up his binoculars and looked at the situation outside. The three pirate ships cooperated quite tacitly and surrounded the William, but unfortunately, when they were two hundred meters away from the William, suddenly three tongues of fire appeared on the William, and the rapid-fire guns that had already been aimed fired at the machine guns of the pirate ships.

At the same time, the machine guns on the William also strafed over, and the dense shells, the rain of machine gun bullets, and the sailors' rifles converged into a metal storm, beating the pirates who were caught off guard to the ground with blood, broken arms and limbs, and the corpses of the pirates fell on the deck one by one, and they did not see the enemy, could not shoot, and went to Allah to confess.

This happened in a flash of lightning, and the pirates suffered heavy casualties under the sudden attack of the William. Situ Nan enjoyed watching it, and his hands were itching, so he set up a sniper rifle converted from an M1903 Springfield rifle, which he usually used for hunting.

After aiming for a while, he finally knocked down a bearded man with a big knife and shouting at other pirates, but unfortunately his marksmanship was a little worse, and he missed the heart, but hit the man in the ass.

The battle lasted 5 minutes and then it was over. One of the pirate ships that was rushing in a hurry was smashed by rapid-fire cannons and stopped, and the remaining two saw that the situation was not good, and quickly turned around and scattered and fled, only to be finally honest after being caught up by the William and beating a shuttle. surrender

Originally, Situ Nan seemed to have collided directly, but his heart hurt the William, so when dealing with the second pirate ship, it took a lot of time, and when he turned back to chase the last pirate ship, the other party had already disappeared into the vast night.

Call. Finally over, Lin Yimin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Young master, that shot just now was beautiful."

Tu Nan raised his head slightly, a little proud.

"Go check on those guys. It's enough to leave a few alive, and the rest don't want to have the two pirate ships, see if you can use them, if you can't use them, sink him" Situ Nan finished explaining, a little sleepy, yawned, and went back to comfort his wife and children.

Lin Yimin walked to a pirate ship, and the stumps and blood on the ship made him feel sick. The pirates don't have many guns, they are all old guns, the rifling is almost worn out, it seems that they are helping poor ghosts, but the thick calluses on those corpses make him feel a little cold in his heart, this is a gang of evil ghosts, fortunately they did not succeed. or it will fall into their hands?????

Thinking of this, Lin Yimin kicked away a corpse in disgust and ordered the soldiers to throw all the pirate's corpses into the sea. As for the other captured pirate ship, it was finally sunk to the bottom of the sea due to damage.

Yes, the William killed and wounded more than 180 pirates, well, except for a few or mouths, the rest of the pirates had to die if they didn't die. It's a pity that the third pirate ship ran away.

After counting, Lin Yimin and the others also found a batch of stolen goods on the ship, gold and silver jewelry, fur porcelain and even machines and pianos, and other strange things, it seems that these pirates have ransacked many ships in the past.

The cold-blooded soldiers on the William completely frightened the remaining pirates to death, and they obediently said the pirate gang.

It turned out that this group of pirates was the largest pirate group in the Persian Gulf, with two or three hundred people, in addition to the fishermen who could not survive, there were also many stragglers, they came from several countries and tribes, including Turkey, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, etc., and there were perennial wars on the Arabian Peninsula, so more and more people started to do business, either as bandits or as pirates.

After the William entered the Persian Gulf, it was realized that these pirates were realized, and they couldn't hold back the greed in their hearts, and wanted to attack the William, but they didn't expect that stealing chickens would not lead to rice, and they would die in vain. These poor fellows had no idea that the Wilhelm, which was quite beautiful and soft outside, would secretly hide such advanced firepower, like a beautiful man-eating flower
