When the Yellow River boat entered the port, nearby boats appeared on the radar display screen one by one.

"This big ship is one of their strongholds on the periphery, and we quietly lean over and load other ships along the way with explosives." Xu Yihang pointed to the most conspicuous mark on the radar and said, "Inform the 'Snow Eagle' helicopter to go to the residential area near the coast to monitor the movements of the pirates, and if any abnormal movement is found, immediately suppress the firepower." ”

The big ship Xu was referring to was a commercial freighter, which was used by pirates as a port stronghold. The freighter is about 300 meters long, and the hull is densely packed with containers, and the bridge is very narrow between those containers.

The ship, which was nearly twice the size of the Snow Dragon, had been moored in the harbor for more than half a year, and its hull was rusty from lack of care and maintenance. It was not an armed merchant ship, but due to its size, it was one of the most threatening ships in the harbor.

The Yellow River boat slowed down after entering the port, and it cautiously headed towards the large freighter, and whenever there were small boats nearby, Xu Yihang and they would load these ships with "shaped charge directional blasting shells". These "blasting shells" are specialized military weapons, and they have their own adhesive surfaces that can adhere to most materials and then detonate. This kind of bomb is characterized by its small footprint, which can be directed and exploded, and the direction of the explosion will only be towards the side of the pasted surface.

The "shaped charge directional blasting shells" are installed on the exposed hulls of these ships, and are placed very close to the waterline, so that when the blasting bombs are detonated, the explosion effect will not be weakened due to the influence of seawater, and a large hole can appear near the waterline, so that the ship will basically be scrapped.

The large freighter is an exception, because of its huge size, the steel plate used in the hull is very thick, and there is a layer of water barrier inside, once the hull is damaged and water ingress accidents, the water barrier can be closed at the first time, and the water does not flow to other cabins, which has little impact on the use of the cargo ship in the short term.

In view of this characteristic of the large cargo ship, Xu Yihang had discussed with Wang Puhong and others before the operation, so the only way to destroy the maneuverability of this large ship and prevent pirates from potentially using it to ram the "Snow Dragon" is to destroy its engine room and power system.

The Yellow River boat seemed to float next to the big freighter, the hull of this ship was much higher than the Yellow River boat, Xu Yihang and they carried climbing tools with the ship, and the group soon came to the deck of the freighter.

If it weren't for the captives who knew in advance that there were pirates on the freighter, I am afraid that everyone would have ignored the danger on board. The soldiers quietly touched the edge of the bridge along the empty edge of the container, and everyone stood by at the door, waiting for Xu Yihang to assign the next task.

The engine room is located below deck, and depending on the size of the ship, there may be several floors of space underneath. Moreover, the location of the engine room of different types of ships is also different, and the engine room of general cargo ships is mostly in the stern of the ship, and cruise ships and passenger ships are in the middle. This freighter is a container ship, and the position of the engine room is basically fixed at the stern, so Xu Yihang will divide the team into two groups, one group of people will go to the bottom of the aft deck to destroy the engine room, and the other group of people will enter the bridge to eliminate or suppress the pirates left behind.

Once the arrangements were in place, the team split into two groups and began to split up. Because the time of the action is at night, everyone brings infrared night vision devices. This kind of equipment is a military night vision instrument that uses photoelectric conversion technology, which illuminates the target through an infrared searchlight, and then receives the reflected infrared radiation to form an image, which can help people observe, search and aim at night.

Chen Bin and Da Fei were in contact with this kind of high-end weapon equipment for the first time, and they felt a little novel when they wore infrared night vision devices on their heads. The image in the frame in front of me suddenly changed, and the pitch-black environment that had been invisible suddenly turned green, and everything near it became clear.

"Wow, it's so advanced," Chen Bin said in surprise, "With this, then we can also go to fight zombies at night in Chongming and Changxing." ”

"Not for the time being," Xu Yihang shook his head after hearing his words, "The quantity of these equipment is very limited, and the existing military industrial enterprises on the island are not yet able to mass-produce it. ”

"I see," Chen Bin was a little disappointed after learning about the situation, and he thought of the night when he patrolled near the dairy farm, and if he had a set of such equipment in his hands at that time, the situation might have been completely different.

The first group had already followed the metal ladder to the bridge of the freighter, which had five floors, and everyone did not know where the pirates who stayed on the freighter were staying, so they went to two or three people on each floor. Chen Bin and Da Fei were in the first group, and they went directly to the top floor of the bridge together.

The view on this floor is very open, the doors and windows are inlaid with a large area of glass, and when you look through the window, you can see that there are beds, tables and chairs, which looks like the captain's quarters.

Chen Bin patted Da Fei's arm and pointed to a position inside. That's where the bed was, and through the infrared night vision you can see a sleeping man lying on it.

Chen Bin's hand touched the doorknob, twisted it and found that it couldn't be opened, he was hesitating to break into the door with a gun, and suddenly there was a gunshot downstairs. The gunfire was not loud, and because it had been processed by a silencer, Chen Bin's position was very quiet, so he could hear it more clearly.

"It seems that the fire has already been handed in," Chen Bin thought to himself, so he no longer hesitated, raised his gun and smashed the glass on the door with the butt.

The sleeping man inside woke up violently when he heard the sound of glass breaking, and his first instinct was to touch the gun placed next to the bed, and then he planned to turn on the light. He couldn't see anything in the dark, and his brain was in a state of temporary lack of blood supply, so his reaction was much slower.

Da Fei could clearly see his panicked look with the help of infrared night vision devices, his gun went off, the gunfire followed by the sound of glass shattering, and the bullet flew out of the muzzle of the gun, and accurately submerged into the man's body.

Chen Bin had already reached through the doorway to unscrew the handle behind the door, and he and Da Fei rushed into the house and shot the man who had fallen on the bed a few more times.

The two of them checked the room to make sure that the danger had been cleared before retreating outside, and then they rushed to support the people on the other floors.

The floor with the most intense battle is the one on the deck, where Xu Yihang is taking the lead in attacking the fortifications. The situation on this deck is different from that of the upper floor, and although the doors to enter are locked, there is no glass on the doors.

It was impossible to break in from here without alarming the people inside, so after Xu Yihang broke the door lock with a gun, he and his brothers rushed in to eliminate or suppress the people inside before they could react.

The pirates on this deck were the same ones who had escaped during the day, and Bradley was suspicious and placed them on the freighter. The port of Wales has been calm for a long time, and the people living in the port are Bradley's men, so it is said to be on duty, but it is just a formality, and more for safety reasons, Bradley wants these guys to stay away from him.

The man in the captain's room on the top floor of the bridge was a minor leader of Bradley's men, from Tin City, not far from Wales Harbour, and had led people to Bradley when he first arrived. None of his own henchmen had returned, and Bradley began to suspect some of them, and this little leader was the most suspicious of them.

Today, the heart of Port Wales is still the police station, where the few weapons and ammunition are stored, and Bradley has stockpiled food and supplies to consolidate his rule.

Bradley is a very smart man, and he knows that in the current environment, the carrot and the stick need to be held in his hands. He and the sailors who also came from the whaling ship are ruthless characters, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are outlaws.

Whaling has been practiced for centuries in some Nordic countries, and even in prehistoric times, people in the Arctic have used stone tools to hunt whaling. In the 17th and 18th centuries, some countries also formed large whaling fleets, and they installed refining furnaces on board to refine whale fat into oil, so that it could be processed while sailing, rather than hauling the whales back to shore for processing. Some whaling ships will stay at sea for several years after departure, and the crews are accustomed to the wind and waves and dangers, and all of them have the mental quality of licking blood from the knife edge.

It is not surprising that Bradley and his descendants took control of the Port of Wales.

The freighter has a deep draft, so the anchorage is still some distance from the shore. The gunfire on the ship was blown away by the night wind, and it was difficult to reach it back to the residential areas on the shore. Bradley was sleeping with two women in one of the police station's rooms, which had been converted from the sheriff's office and had been fitted with the most comfortable living equipment in the port, so it had become the pirate leader's "dormitory".

Xu Yihang rushed into the bridge tower on the upper deck with people, and the sound of breaking the door woke up the sleeping pirates inside, and the soldiers came prepared and took advantage of attacking them unprepared, so two pirates immediately fell to the ground under one look.

Three more people ran to the control room inside, and they were quick to react, fighting back with the help of the criss-crossed corridors as they ran.
