200 It's a trap
The radar warning showed a new piece of information, a huge ship is slowly approaching the island, and from the report, this is an Austrian ore carrier, loaded with 200,000 tons of iron ore, is being transported to Asia.
However, on the northerly route, the ship's engine was damaged, and the power compartment was leaking, and they were urgently looking for a port to dock for rescue.
The nearest thing in the whole sea area is Wick Island, so they applied for docking, and the dock of Wick Island can't stop such a big ship, but there are pumping equipment and maintenance equipment on the island, and their request for docking maintenance is completely understandable.
I've come here to get help when boats have passed by before. However, their application and speed showed no signs of damage on Chu Shengya's radar, and as for why they came, I'm afraid anyone could think of it.
However, hearing that the ship was loaded with 200,000 tons of iron ore, Xiao Chu was really moved, the value of iron ore is even higher than the price of refined steel on the interstellar trading platform, which is simply against the laws of nature.
Of course, there is a reason for this, because with the smelting level of a low civilization, it is completely impossible to completely extract the active ingredients in iron ore.
In layman's terms, humans have only taken away iron ore, and the remaining slag has many associated rare mineral deposits, the value of which is completely incomparable with iron ore.
For example, the lithium in the iron lithium ore is much more expensive than the iron, and without the support of smelting technology, the underdeveloped countries can only refine iron for use, and the lithium ore is regarded as slag.
200,000 tons, if the ship is here for maintenance, then spend money to buy it, if it is to do something, just collect the whole process of evidence, and then, don't spend a penny of honey.
So, a group of foolish mercenaries really fell for it.
Even the method by which they can sneak in, Chu Shengya is very clear, as an observer who has insight into the world, Xiao Chu was also one of the high-level members of the Observer Alliance at the beginning. Others don't know, can he not know how a special kind of ship sneaks things around?
When the developed countries are strictly inspected, what is the best way to transport some contraband into it?
Don't think about customs, the only way to transport it in is by sea.
Of course, people will inspect cargo ships, and it is unrealistic to want to pick up goods from the ship, so you can only pick up goods from the bottom of the ship.
So the various smuggling tycoons quickly came up with a strange mode of transportation, which was the wheel-bottom submarine.
The so-called wheel-bottom submarine is a special shape, clinging to a giant oil tanker or cargo ship, and passing through the customs in a fool's way. On radar and sonar, if the submarine fits perfectly with the bottom of the giant ship, then no one will detect them through sonar.
In addition to increasing the underwater depth by three to five meters, the load capacity of this wheel-bottom submarine is also very powerful.
This time, there were three mercenaries from the special squad hidden in the wheel-bottom submarine that sneaked in.
Hydra, also known as the sea monster, is a monster in Greek mythology, and in reality, especially in the mercenary world, the name of Hydra can rank among the top three in the world.
Especially in terms of offensiveness, they are more deterrent than those regular security companies, slaughtering villages, arresting presidents, breaking military bases, and leaving their notoriety in various parts of Africa, the Middle East, and South America.
Of course, this also has to do with their strength, a mercenary regiment equipped with fighter jets, bombers and helicopter formations, which is already an ultra-luxury version. Many small African and South American countries have air forces that can't match them.
Of course, this is not the most powerful, the most powerful thing is that Hydra not only performs some small country tasks, but even some large countries with good military strength, as long as they are not among the five majors, they can also perform some special tasks within a limited range.
Of course, this depends on an artifact, which is the wheel-bottom submarine.
It is 148 meters long, about 8 meters wide, about 4.5 meters high, and 3 meters high in the cargo compartment, which can fit two Bobcat helicopters, four amphibious assault vehicles, a heavily armored amphibious assault tank, nearly a dozen other small off-road motorcycles, and a number of ammunition supplies.
At the same time, the so-called submarine can carry nearly 100 heavily armed commandos.
This density of firepower is already quite enough to cope with a small local war.
For their firepower and force configuration, they can't help but be unconfident, because they are mercenaries, their lives are their own, and they are not sparing when they use money, so the equipment they use is also quite powerful.
Taking the three squadrons on this mission as an example, almost all of the members of the 96-member execution force are retired elites from the special forces of various countries, proficient in the operation of various vehicles and weapons, and they have all undergone strict training and screening.
In order to carry out this task with a bounty of hundreds of millions, Hydra can be said to be elite and without any reservations.
Hydra's combat research room also carefully studied many kinds of tactics, which were completely designed for Chu Shengya's advantages.
According to their plan, in the event that long-range fire and air support could not be put in place, close infiltration became the only option, and the combat team of ninety-six people was divided into three teams to carry out assault control of the docks, airfields and residential areas.
According to reliable information, there are less than 10 people on the entire island, and most of them are women and children, and there are less than three combatants capable of fighting, which is negligible.
The only thing that needs to be noted is that there are more than 100 machine guns in the defense system, but according to reliable information, they have not laid wire control, and the hundreds of machine guns scattered throughout the island can basically be declared a waste if they are interfered with in all bands.
It should also be noted that the big plane that is staying in the hangar, according to the intelligence, the fantasy air killer-level ground attack aircraft, modified from the A225 transport aircraft, the output strength of ground targets, they have long been obtained through the stealth drive, and the video of the massacre in Heizhou has been uploaded all over the dark line. Even regardless of those, when Huaxia was fighting against alien creatures, these powerful ground attack planes also showed a strength beyond everyone's expectations, and this attack on this island was half for the bounty of more than a billion US dollars, and the other half was for the plane on the island.
Edward Lenze, a former Navy SEAL colonel, and his three ten-man squads are almost all retired SEALs, and their combat quality and elite level are not a little bit stronger than the active Navy SEALs.
This is mainly due to the vehicles and weapons they are equipped with. Three amphibious assault jeeps and nine amphibious beach motorcycles are perfect for both undulating seas and rocky beaches. Amphibious assault jeeps, as miniature heavy firepower carrying platforms, are the firepower of this amphibious assault team.
Amphibious jeeps that can put away tires have a miserable ballistic performance, at most they can block small arms bullets 100 meters away, and bulletproof ceramic inserts are mainly used. In fact, the civilian version of this car is sold in Australia, a toy car used by the rich to install 13, and the civilian version of the whole body is made of lightweight materials, and the total weight is only more than a ton. And the version used by their commando is an upgraded version of the civilian version, first of all, the civilian version is completely exploded in size, which is basically the ratio of an ordinary jeep to the military version of the Humvee. The special version, which is much wider and longer, is of course much stronger in terms of load capacity, not only equipped with a ceramic insert plate on the outside, but also a heavy machine gun with a point of 50 on the main stand, and as many as 1,000 rounds of ammunition. There are also two multi-purpose missiles in the rear of the car, low-energy tanks, high-energy helicopters, and two armor-piercing incendiary bombs in the cabin.
Hydra's amphibious assault team is equipped with an amphibious assault jeep as standard, three assault ATVs, different from the full-weight firepower jeep, although it is also a four-wheeled ATV, but it is much smaller in terms of load capacity, in addition to being able to carry two heavily armed commandos, it can only be equipped with an XM556 mini Vulcan cannon, although this thing is only a mini version, but in terms of firepower, it is also ferocious to death.
In fact, at the beginning of the design, the amphibious quad was prepared to carry the M134, but although the weight of that thing was not too large, the weight of the bullet was several times that of a small-caliber bullet. With two heavily armed fighters on board, plus the weight of the machine gun, the amphibious vehicle could only carry a maximum of 300 rounds of ammunition, and any more, it would have to sink to the bottom in the sea.
After changing to the smaller XM556, you can still wave with 2,000 rounds of ammunition, but as long as the boat stops, the soldier's small half leg will still be soaked in the seawater.
Three light machine guns, one heavy machine gun, and the firepower of a ten-man assault team was already so ferocious, multiplied by three, Edward Lenz felt that no one could stop them.
However, this is not the case for the whole world.
