Great warships

Chapter 438 Encounter with Pirates

A helicopter landed on the large deck of the Oriental Maritime Blockade. Qin Tao, Vitalia, and two bodyguards came down, and the helicopter flew away again.

"President Qin, don't bother you to come here in person, we can complete the transportation work." Zhang Zhen and his assistants greeted him on the deck, and said after seeing Qin Tao.

Qin Tao smiled: "After passing the Suez Canal, everything will be safe. We have made arrangements to go to Gwadar Port to replenish the living supplies, and then continue on the road. After I got off the ship there, I went back to China directly. , so, we’re here to feel the feel.”

Of course, Qin Tao had to personally participate in this kind of glorious action.All the way here, I have been coordinating and escorting, and I haven't lived on this ship much.

Now, sailing with the ship for a period of time and going to Gwadar Port together is also an experience.

Vitalia smiled. Of course she is more qualified to come up. After all, this ship is hers in name, and she also loves life at sea. Last time, she sailed across the ocean to the east. City, much more spacious than that yacht.

"In fact, there is no need to replenish supplies. Everyone can eat canned food. I used to eat canned food when I was at sea."

The previous frigates had little space. Every time they went to sea, the decks were packed with bags of potatoes, and eating canned food was even more commonplace. They had long been used to it.

"There isn't much fresh water, so everyone has to save it. We mainly replenish fresh water." Qin Tao said, striding towards the ship island.

Since it is carried by the floating dock of the Shenzhou, the ship does not need to be operated, mainly looking at the fixed steel cables, so there can be no problems.

Therefore, there are people patrolling back and forth on the deck at any time, and there are not many people on the ship island.

"In the past, when we went to Jiandao, we were only on the shore. This time we are on the sea, and the view is really different." Qin Tao said: "It is still more spectacular when sailing."

"Yeah, it's still more spectacular to sail, and it will be even more spectacular if carrier-based aircraft take off and land on it in the future."

There are no other people in the ship island, and there will be no obstacles ahead, so now we can talk about some special topics.

Zhang Zhen was very happy and did not shy away from Vitalia.

There was a smile on Vitalia's face: "Sure enough, as I guessed, you are planning to transform this ship into an aircraft carrier."

Vitalia is also quite smart. She has seen all these actions all the time, and she is guessing Qin Tao's intentions.

Qin Tao expended so much energy just to break the barrier?Certainly not, there must be other uses for buying it back!
Zhang Zhen was surprised: "Ms. Vitalia can understand Chinese?"

I'm being careless, Zhang Zhen would never have said these words if he knew that people could understand, if it wasn't because he was too happy.

Qin Tao smiled: "After we go back, let's derust first and take care of it. We don't know if we can be an aircraft carrier. If we can, it's better than being a blockade. Of course, this is also Ideally, if it costs more to fix than to build a new one, then we don't have to bother."

Vitalia nodded: "Qin, in this way, wouldn't you want to kill me?"

After tossing for so long and using so many relationships, what happened in the end?It was agreed to be a blockade, but it turned into an aircraft carrier?
"How is it possible?" Qin Tao said: "If you really become an aircraft carrier, then you are the hero of our country. No matter what happens, we can keep your family safe, Vitalia, think about it, you come to the East for what purpose."

Vitalia nodded.

"Besides, I've already thought about the way the golden cicada escapes its shell." Qin Tao said, "For example, after we go back, we're going to open a blockade. A lot of money, a well-endowed green innovation group, was exported by you."

Huangdu poison, which of the three is the scariest?
Of course it is the middle one. The front and back two only affect one person, but the middle one, ruined, his wife and children are separated, and his family is destroyed.

"What if I'm lucky?" Vitalia asked with a smile.

"If you're lucky, then you'll be the Queen of Magang." Qin Tao said.

What's so unlucky about this thing?It's not about cheating.

While teasing, Qin Tao looked towards the sea. Suddenly, his expression changed: "There is a small boat coming from the right. It is very suspicious. Give me the binoculars immediately!"

Zhang Zhen immediately handed the telescope to Qin Tao, and soon, an old fishing boat appeared in the field of vision of the telescope.

"It seems nothing strange." Zhang Zhen said, "That's a fishing boat."

"Have you ever seen six or seven people on a fishing boat? So many people are needed for fishing?" Qin Tao said, "Sound the alarm immediately, and notify the Shenzhou and Nikolai-Chikel by radio, and be ready at any time." Prepare!"

Qin Tao also thought about this trick, which can be used when doing certain things, but, after all, this is a Pandora's box, once opened, he can't control it, and it might come back to him in the end.

So, Qin Tao didn't use it in the end, what happened?Someone actually used this method without any scruples?Now that you use it like this, don't blame yourself!

Qin Tao has made up his mind.

On board the Shenzhou.

"Received the notice from Mr. Qin that an unknown ship appeared on the starboard side. Mr. Qin instructed us to follow the No. [-] plan that we had prepared before!" Yang Xin shouted loudly: "Fold all the gangways and prepare the high-pressure water dragon!"

After this design was made for Zhenhua No. [-], it was quickly developed to all ships. The speed of the Shenzhou floating dock is very slow, so this kind of preventive measures must also be done well.

The side walls of the floating dock are vertical. In order to facilitate work, a ladder is needed to go down at any time. At first it was just an ordinary gangway, but later it was all changed into sections, and the lower half of the gangway can be folded up.

In this way, at least five meters above the sea, those pirates would not be able to climb up unless they knew how to do light work.

The floating dock needs to dive or float in the sea, so it also needs a high-power water pump to pump water. After a change, it can be easily changed into a fire boat. Its fire water cannon can be sprayed hundreds of meters away.It is definitely the most powerful water gun in this era, stronger than those on special fishery administration boats.

All the work is going on in an orderly manner.

On the Nikolai Chickel, he was a little nervous.

"Pirates? How is it possible? Are they making a fuss?" The captain looked curiously at the distant sea and at the rapidly approaching ship, feeling somewhat disapproving.

Although the country to the south is in turmoil and many organizations are at war, is it too bold to say that they dare to go to sea to threaten shipping?
If they do so, they will definitely be suppressed collectively by the international community.

"That's right, it's the age of civilization now, and that kind of skull flag doesn't symbolize bravery and pride." The first officer at the side said, raised the binoculars, and adjusted the focus.Then, his complexion changed.

"AK, RPG! Damn it, it's really a pirate!"

At this time, the fishing boat was less than 500 meters away from them, and the people on the boat no longer disguised themselves, showing their sharp fangs.

At this time, they also need to cheer themselves up, and using weapons is the best way.

Abbas stood at the bow of the boat and raised the AK in his hand high: "Brothers, after doing this vote, we can get 2000 million US dollars! Money that can't be spent in a lifetime!"

"That's right, our parents gave us life. Instead of doing nothing, it's better to do it vigorously!" Hasan was also very excited with the bazooka on his shoulder.

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and kissed the bazooka in his hand, expecting to be able to shoot without fail. However, if he is allowed to attack the big guy in front, there should be no possibility of missing the target. As long as he can get close to the shooting range, he will definitely be able to shoot. Blast a big hole.

They don't know what is waiting for them.

"Sure enough, they are pirates. They all have weapons! Damn it, if I had a 37 gun, I would blow them all up!" Zhang Zhen said through gritted teeth.

"In the future, maybe there is a chance." Qin Tao remembered that there was a time when pirates went to rob a warship, and they died in the end. These guys will become more and more daring.

As for now, although we have no weapons at hand, we have something more terrifying than weapons.

"Attention to all water cannons, get closer to 300 meters before doing it!" Yang Xin's words were relatively flat. For him, it was nothing to worry about, it was just a trivial matter.

"We have to help them!" Iris yelled loudly on board the Nikola Chickel, "We have fire water cannons, and we'll use them to drive these damned guys away!"

Iris said while running.

The main business of their ship is ocean towing, but it also has other uses. It is equipped with a special long-distance fire nozzle, which can put out fires in ports or other ships when needed.

Now, this set can also be used against pirates!

"That's right, we want to drive away the pirates!" Facing the danger, they didn't back down, they remembered their mission: to drag the huge monster behind them, now they are in danger, they have to face it together!
Panting, Iris ran up to the bridge, pushed the fire hose, and saw an incomparably spectacular sight before aiming it there.

Four water dragons suddenly spewed out from the side of the Shenzhou floating dock. Under the sun, they bloomed in colorful colors. They drew a beautiful arc and headed towards the pirate ship in the distance. When the water dragons fell, the water column also Expand rapidly.

With such a long distance, it is impossible to accurately land on the top of the target. The nearest water dragon is more than ten meters away from the fishing boat. However, the water dragon is continuous and can constantly adjust its direction!
At this moment, the people on the pirate ship were also dumbfounded.

When have you seen such a scene?
How is this going?

Their eyes widened, watching all this in disbelief.

"Damn it, turn around quickly!" Abbas reacted first and shouted loudly.

The helmsman behind quickly twisted the rudder lever, and the fishing boat drew an arc on the sea.

Pfft!
Someone fell into the water!
How cool it was to pretend just now, how embarrassing it is now.

Hassan was very majestic just now, standing there showing off his power, but when the fishing boat turned quickly, his body couldn't control his balance, and he just fell down!
The waves were surging, Hassan's RPG had already sunk, and he himself might go down with the RPG at any time.

However, the other pirates did not completely avoid the risk. Although they had already escaped urgently, a water dragon still poured on their fishing boat.

Whoa!
The water flowed down from the sky like a torrential rain. They had never seen such a situation in the arid desert. All of a sudden, everyone was completely chilled.

Puff, puff!
There were two other people, whose bodies swayed under the impact of the water, and then were washed down again.

"Give up, give up!" Abbas lay prone on the boat, not daring to straighten up, for fear of being washed down by the water dragon. At this moment, he wished to strangle that arms dealer named Nicholas. What kind of bad idea did he come up with? It is impossible to rob such a ship!

This is simply looking for abuse.

However, the boat did not continue to turn because the rear engine stalled!

Who knows how it turned off, it was already malfunctioning frequently, but this time it was hit by the water flow, which made it worse.

Above the head, the water flow continued to fall, and several other water dragons also aimed at it.

"Damn it, our ship is sinking!" Abbas cried out in despair.

Four high-pressure water dragons poured down, filling their boat with water, and soon it was knee-deep, and the fishing boat kept sinking, sinking, and finally, the side of the boat was level with the water.

The turbulent sea water poured in, and the fishing boat under his feet completely sank into the water.

"This is too domineering!" Iris was very emotional. He originally planned to use his water cannon to help, but comparing the two, it is not an order of magnitude at all. It is simply a child's water cannon and firefighter. The gap between cars and water dragons.

A few hundred meters away, the fishing boat was directly sunk!

"That's right, it's too domineering and mighty. It would be great if I could work on that ship!" said the companion beside him.

This is just an ordinary emotion, and no one takes it seriously.

Here, Yang Xin is also very happy. They have practiced it many times. Although they don't want to use it, but since it is used, it must be effective. Now, seeing this scene, they are very satisfied.

So cool!
"Qin, you prepared it in advance?" Vitalia was also very surprised to see the ship island of the Eastern Ducheng on the sea. She knew that Qin Tao had been preparing for this project for a long time, but she didn't expect that even the defense Pirates are all ready to go.

Qin Tao smiled: "I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, but I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it. Of course we have to make this kind of preparation. It seems that the effect is not bad. In the future, the ships manufactured by our Mingzhou Group can increase the money and add this kind of equipment." Professional anti-piracy water cannons are expected to sell well, by the way, throw a few life buoys to them."

Throw a few life buoys?Is it useful?Vitalia looked at Qin Tao curiously: "They are all pirates, they are here to rob us. They carry weapons and may pose a threat to us at any time."

AK is not very powerful, but RPG is different. If you use that kind of special tank, although it only pierces a hole, it can penetrate hundreds of millimeters.

Isn't Qin Tao paying attention to the benevolence of women by doing this?
Qin Tao smiled: "If they all drown here, who will go back to take revenge?"

revenge?

Zhang Zhen on the side was also very emotional when he heard it. Mr. Qin's way of thinking is different from others.

"I haven't seen any pirates before. When these people come out, they want to rob us. It's clear that they are ordered by others. There are so many cargo ships and oil tankers. Why are they looking at us? Someone must be instigating us behind the scenes! "

"That's right!" Vitalia was very excited: "They have been fooled, we are the hard ones, they have suffered a lot, and when they go back, they will definitely settle accounts with the person who fooled them, Qin, your trick is really great Already!"

"Saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level bomb!" Qin Tao said with emotion: "I am a compassionate person, and I am a great kind person."

Vitalia just smiled and said nothing.

In the sea, several people are struggling.

Their weapons had been thrown away long ago, and only they were left struggling in the sea water.Although they can swim, it is not so easy to swim back.

Especially Hassan, who was the first to fall into the water, had already choked several times, and he felt that his strength was about to run out. Did he just die like this?

He doesn't want to.

Another wave came down, he held his breath and gritted his teeth, and waited until the wave passed before he wiped the sea water from his face, feeling extremely desperate in his heart.

Wait, what is that?
In a blur, he saw an orange-yellow thing floating in the sea.

Lifebuoy?
Excited, he swam with the last of his strength and climbed up.

The lifebuoy can not only be put on the neck, but also sit on it. Compared with the two, sitting will be more comfortable.

Hassan was panting heavily, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, thankful that he was still alive.

The other life buoys were also slowly floating. Abbas was very strong. After swimming up, he put it around his neck and shouted loudly to the people around him: "Quick, find the life buoy!"

"Where did you get the life buoy?"

"It was put down from the boat over there."

"How is it possible, we were going to rob them, and they actually gave us the life buoy?"

The pirates who survived felt a little incredible.

"Yes, they gave us life. In the future, if it is not necessary, we will never attack Chinese cargo ships!" Abbas said.

"How do you know it's from China?"

"The square characters on the bow are only found in the east." Abbas explained.

"Thank the Chinese for not killing us all." Others also felt emotional.

Qin Tao didn't know that he originally planned to let them go to the conspirators behind them to settle accounts, but he didn't expect that there would be such benefits. These people will deliberately avoid Chinese cargo ships when they do it in the future.

As for the other, the one who killed them, they were tit-for-tat and kidnapped the cargo ship of the other's nationality.

Finally, the fleet sailed out of the Gulf of Aden and entered a wider sea.

"There is a frigate near us." Zhang Zhen said, pointing to the sea in the distance.

"If they want to follow the supervision, let them supervise. They have no reason to detain our boat. If they dare to approach, we will overturn them!" Qin Tao said.

After the incident with the Xingchen, the other party was also wronged and lost face internationally. Now the ship towed back by our side is completely legal and does not contain any contraband. The other party has no reason to come to trouble Qin Tao and the others.

If the other party wants to follow, just follow, and Qin Tao can't stop the other party from following.

"When we were designing, Gwadar Port was a deep-water port, so it's no problem for our combination to move there." Qin Tao talked about the next thing.

"Is it built there now?"

"Of course not. The construction of the port is a century-old project. We can't be in a hurry, and it won't be so fast. However, let's stop for a while, and it will be no problem to pick up some supplies."

"Boss Qin, I just received a telegram." Xu Zhengyang walked in.

"what news?"

"Magang issued a statement that due to the depth of the port, we were refused to dock."

Hearing this, Vitalia smiled: "We will not really go to Magang, even if the water depth is not enough, we are not afraid."

Qin Tao shook his head: "No, this is still their temptation. If we want Dongfang Haicheng to reach Dongfang safely, we'd better pretend to be very anxious. It seems that we should not go to Gwadar We have arrived in Hong Kong, please come over with a helicopter to help replenish some supplies, we will go ashore by helicopter, and then fly to Hong Kong on a passenger plane."

Is it still a test?
Vitalia also understood immediately.

The water depth in Magang is not enough, and people don’t allow it to dock. If the Oriental Maritime Blockade is really going to be a blockade, Chuanglv Company should be quite anxious now, and they should run to solve this matter immediately. If they still don’t agree Nervous, that means there is a problem!
They'll have to act a little more like that.

Vitalia nodded: "That's right, we must go there immediately, but if the water depth of the pier is not enough, I'm afraid we still won't be able to dock."

This question sounds unsolvable.

Qin Tao smiled: "Don't forget, we have dredgers!"

Many coastal countries are doing land reclamation. After all, the land area is limited. If you want to continue to develop, you can only use the sea. For small places like Magang and Pearl of the Orient In other words, the significance of land reclamation is even more significant.

Qin Tao came to sell this, can they not agree?

He will definitely treat Qin Tao as a guest of honor.

One day later, Ma Hong Kong.

"Currently, the Sky Whale dredger produced by our group is operating in the southern waters. You may have heard of it. It has already filled an area of ​​about three square kilometers with first-class efficiency." Qin Tao looked at the opposite People, very sincerely: "So, we can easily solve the problem of insufficient draft. We can help dig out a deep-water wharf, and the excavated soil can also expand the area of ​​Magang."

"Mingzhou Group is willing to use dredgers to help us expand the area?" Sure enough, the people on the other side immediately became excited.
