Chapter 33: Enemy Attack
The trio returned to their cabins. and rested to each other. The cat doesn't come out in it. Just wait for the freighter to arrive at the port of Manchester. Then find the Chinese Consulate in Siam. Get in touch with the country through the consulate side. Return to Shanghai.
Bayu had breakfast. I went to the cockpit. Originally, his freighter was sailing normally. The weather is also good. He is generally not required to stay in the cockpit. Watched by the first mate here. Just call the shots for him. But he has something on his mind. Worry about accidents. Still preoccupied and sat in front of his captain's position. From time to time, the eyes look at the ocean ahead.
"What is the position now?" Bayu asked.
"Report the captain. At the moment we are still in the South China Sea. Speed eighteen knots. Eighty nautical miles ahead. The ship will pass through the waters of the Zhongsha Islands." The second officer next to him looked at the chart and replied.
"The speed was increased to 22 knots. Speed through this sea. Inform the engine room. It must be guaranteed that the machine does not have any problems. Feel free to stay in touch with us." Ba Yu gave the command with a stern gaze.
The second mate immediately conveyed his orders. The boat also began to accelerate. This behemoth rides the wind and waves in the vast and endless sea. Like a mighty beast, it began to run wildly.
The wind outside the cabin is beautiful and sunny. The morning sun still retains its reserve. There was no such scorching heat. The wind and waves of the sea rolled up lazily on the side of the ship. Appears to be weak.
But Bayu still felt upset and irritable. From time to time he stood up. Walk around the cabin twice. After a while, I will return to my seat. Frowning and looking into the distance.
"Speed 22 knots. Direction southwest. The gauge is normal." The helmsman shouted. So that your voice can reach every corner of the cockpit.
Hear the helmsman's reply. Ba Yu's heart settled down a little. He pulled out the cigarette case from his bosom. Take out a punch cigar. I pulled out a cigar cutter from my pants pocket. Very skillfully cut off the cigar heads. Hold the cigar in your mouth. Pull out the matches." Snort". Match head. A smell of sulfur wafted by. He held a match and brought the fire to his lips.
"Warning. Warning. There are pirates ahead..... There's a pirate ahead...."Suddenly the cabin was overheaded. There was a terrible scream. The voice dragged on for a long time. It looks so weird and infiltrating. Ba Yu was so frightened that he trembled. A burning match falls to the ground.
Bayu is very clear. It was a warning cry from the observation post on the top floor. Ba Yu's face turned pale with a "swish". I thought: What are you afraid of? Come to what. As the saying goes. I walked a lot at night. There will always be ghosts. I wasn't so lucky this time. It's still a ghost.
Ba Yufei rushed out of the cockpit like that. Eyes staring at the ocean. Under the panic. He didn't see anything. He hurriedly looked up at the observation post again. Follow the direction of the sentry's finger. I saw only three or four nautical miles away. Five or six black dots swayed undulating on the blue sea. Follow Bayu's rich sailing experience. He can judge with certainty. That's five or six speedboats. Like five or six off-string arrows. It's coming to its side.
"Pull the alarm. Flying the national flag. Inform all crew members. Grab the weapon. All on deck." Ba Yu was flustered. But he didn't put panic on his face. He is the supreme commander of this freighter. If he's messed up. Then what follows can only be a complete defeat.
After these orders were given. Ba Yu said to the second mate beside him: "Go. to the engine room. Call Ahei."
The second mate didn't understand the captain's intention of calling him to call Ahei at this time. But he still carried out the captain's order very resolutely. But he had just run down the ladder. Then I heard the captain's anxious and anxious voice behind him: "Tell him to hurry."
At this moment, the sound of the crew running and the shrill sirens were heard from all over the deck." Woo......", sirens hissed. Tighten everyone's nerves on board. High level of mental stress. The atmosphere has also become unusually oppressive.
Those black dots are still jumping on the surface of the sea. As the distance pulls in. Through a telescope. Bayu can already see those speedboats. Wearing a blue camouflage uniform. There is no rank mark on it. Wearing a sloppy hat. Cover everyone's face tightly. They had long spears and short cannons in their hands. The speedboat was armed with two 100-mm single-mounted naval guns and six anti-aircraft machine guns. Those eyes hidden behind sloppy hats have a thick murderous aura. Bloodthirsty wolf sex.
Now there is no doubt about it. It was indeed a pirate. What they do best is driving a gunboat of small tonnage like this. Adopt wolf pack tactics. Surrounded by a lone ship at sea. And now most countries of the ocean freighter or merchant ship . It is not allowed to retrofit heavy weapons of large caliber. Generally, only automatic or semi-automatic submachine guns and one or two anti-aircraft machine guns are allowed. The firepower of these only weapons is simply not comparable to that of pillage. Vicious and vicious pirates contend with each other.
On the deck of a freighter. More than a dozen sailors were armed with weapons. Hidden on the deck, in the corner of the container. Staring wide-eyed at the small gunboats that were getting closer and closer. There was silence on deck. Some are just the popping heartbeats of the sailors.
Outside the cockpit. Bayu seems to have waited for a year. Anxious eyes look at the exit hatch of the bilge from time to time. When a dark shadow flickered through the hatch. People seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when they saw Bayu. The body soothed slightly.
The thin and swarthy Wu Mingyong ** wears his upper body. Sweat drenched in sweat. This is a hot day. It's too hot in the engine room. Even on a summer morning.
Wu Mingyong walked in front of Ba Yu. Glancing back at the ocean. At this time, their freighter was less than two nautical miles away from the five gunboats. And Wu Mingyong saw the lively gunboat. The muscles of the face trembled slightly. There was a hint of disgust in the corners of his eyes. The body is murderous for a moment.
Ba Yu knows Wu Mingyong's origins. I also know why he ended up on his own ship. Just after he was sure that the freighter had been attacked by pirates. He immediately thought of this man who had experienced countless killings. The black boy who came out of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood. Now he needs him so much.
"Ahh Here they are. You see what we do." Wu Mingyong's arrival. Bayu seems to have forgotten that he is the captain. Take this black boy as your backbone.
"What else can I do. Hit." Wu Mingyong's answer was simple and clear. There is a soaring murderous aura.
"But there are many of them. Can we fight?" At this time, Ba Yu had no confidence to speak at all.
"You can't sit still." Ngo Minh Dung was not sure if it was the rebels in Luzon or Nguyen Thanh Giang's people. But he's pretty sure. If it is Ruan Chengjiang's subordinates. got on board. Once you find yourself. I must be a dead end. So in his heart. There's no intention of settling your hands on it. That kind of fluke can exist in someone else. With him. There is no possibility.
"There's no other way." Bayu asked tentatively.
Wu Mingyong's eyes rolled suddenly. He remembered that there were several other people on the ship.
