Chapter 266
: The Royal Navy of the Qin Empire is patrolling here! 【5K Big Chapter】
While the crew of the ‘Haihong’ nervously arranged various defense facilities.
On the warship more than 30 kilometers away, a dozen sailors wearing Myanmar navy uniforms were also busy.
“Captain! The other party clearly called us to ask about our identity and purpose!” A sailor operating the communication asked the captain in the middle.
Although these sailors are wearing the uniforms of the Myanmar Navy and their morale is not high, many of them look eager to try.
The captain looked hesitant.
They are the remnants of the Burmese naval fleet. After the Burmese naval fleet suffered a devastating blow from the Qin Air Force, these small boats of dozens or hundreds of tons fled everywhere and escaped.
Their warship is an offshore patrol ship with only over 200 tons and a crew of 28. The only weapons on the entire warship are a 57mm naval gun at the bow and two 12.7mm machine guns at the stern. and less than ten rifles for self-defense.
After the destruction of the Burmese navy, Captain Endo took them to a large archipelago on the east side of the Malay Peninsula, occupied an island with more than a hundred fishermen, and became the king.
But just a small island cannot develop and grow at all, and many of their supplies cannot be supplied.
So Endor came up with the idea of becoming a pirate.
They waited for a long time between the waters of Malacca and the Andaman Sea, and finally waited for a ship trying to go to Qin.
But once they hijack this ship, they will be pirates for life.
With a background in the navy, Endor used to be a naval captain, but now he was reduced to a pirate, and he couldn’t help but sigh.
But looking at the eagerness of his men to try, he knew that they were starving during this period.
In the past, he was a regular member of the Myanmar Navy. When he was resting in the Myanmar port, he could do whatever he wanted by virtue of his naval status.
Since the defeat of the Burmese military government and the destruction of the Burmese navy, their ship hid in a small fishing village in a corner. They lived a life of eating salted fish every day and had no entertainment facilities.
At most, the women in the fishing village were kidnapped and raped.
But what kind of beauty can be seen by fishermen who have been exposed to the sun and rain for a long time? After being a disaster in the fishing village for more than half a month, they have had enough of this kind of life.
How can you not be excited when you see a cargo ship now?
If there are goods on it, it is not impossible to rob them directly, sell them to the surrounding sea areas, sell them for money, and then buy some better living necessities, or even some beautiful women.
Therefore, these sailors have now completely become pirates. When they see ships, they scream and want to rob them.
“Give them power and ask them to stop the ship! Otherwise we will fire!” Endor took a deep breath.
If you want to do it, then you must do it!
“Order everyone to enter combat mode! Move the warship to the rear of this ship, and put the gun on top! Prepare to bombard their bridge! The heavy machine gunners are ready to suppress their counterattack!” If it weren’t for the purpose of hijacking the ship , Endor even wanted to directly order to fire at the butt of the sea ship, paralyzing the ship’s power system.
As a result, the entire patrol ship began to accelerate and headed towards the cargo ship ‘Haihong’.
Although this patrol ship is an offshore patrol ship, because it is an old second-hand ship purchased from Eagle Country, its maximum speed is only 27 knots, which is about 50 kilometers per hour.
When a large cargo ship is fully loaded, its speed is generally about ten knots, which is about 18.5 kilometers per hour.
The maximum range of the 57mm gun on the bow of the ship is about ten kilometers, which means that it only takes them less than an hour to enter the range of ten kilometers of the “Haihong”. The 57mm gun on the bow of the ship can target the “Haihong” ‘create a threat!
After receiving the response from the other party, the Haihong did not sit still and wait for death. Instead, it drove towards the north at full speed. At the same time, the captain Long Ying ordered the civilian personnel to enter the cabin and other sailors to enter the bridge. Don’t take the lead casually and be careful of the pirates’ guns.
“They are just a small warship. It is difficult to board the ship, but if they really board the ship…” Long Ying looked at Rong Tianci and said, “For the safety of the crew, we can only surrender.”
This is a helpless move, and it is also a normal move when encountering pirates on the sea.
Because pirates have not been rampant in Southeast Asia in recent years, unlike the Red Sea and Somali waters, there are security companies that can provide escort services, such as setting up heavy machine guns at the stern of ships to expel pirates when encountering them.
The Haihong had no means of counterattack and could only respond in this way.
“I have sent radio calls to the surrounding areas for help, but there is little hope.” Long Ying added a few words: “The closest ones to us should be the patrol fleets of the Kingdom of Malay and the Kingdom of Lijiapo in the Malacca Strait, but they are too far away from us. .”
Rong Tianci nodded solemnly, looking at the sea outside the window, praying for a miracle.
Soon, the patrol ship entered the ten-kilometer range of the Haihong and began to move towards the rear of the Haihong. At the same time, it fired a cannonball that landed only a few hundred meters away from the Haihong. On the sea, the explosion splashed a large water column.
“They fired!” The crew on the bridge looked at the water column and explosion not far away, and became a little panicked.
“Don’t panic! Everyone hide! Don’t show your head!” Long Ying commanded calmly.
As time passed, the pirate patrol ship soon entered a range of three to four kilometers from the Haihong and began to look for a convenient place to board the ship.
Just when the Haihong fell into despair.
Sizzling——
The radio station in the bridge command room suddenly rang.
“This is the Royal Navy Fleet of the Great Qin Empire. Who is calling for rescue? Please answer me!” A solemn voice sounded from the radio station.
Long Ying and others were stunned.
This passage was then repeated on the radio in other languages.
Long Ying quickly picked up the communicator and shouted: “This is the ocean-going cargo ship Haihong! We are being attacked by pirates! Requesting rescue!”
After replying three times in a row, Long Ying put down the communicator and waited quietly.
“Received, please Haihong connect the ocean navigation system to this channel – [XXX-XXXX], we will carry out rescue based on your positioning!” A more detailed voice came from the radio.
Long Ying quickly asked the navigator to connect the ocean navigation system to the channel provided by the other party.
boom!
At this time, a cannonball hit around the bridge. The sudden explosion and vibration shocked the sailors hiding in the ship.
Although the 57mm artillery hit the cargo ship and caused no casualties, the high-explosive shells still deformed a large area in the area where the shells hit, and the splashing shrapnel left marks on the hull.
After watching the navigator follow the instructions and upload the positioning to the channel requested by the other party, Long Ying and others began to become nervous.
“By the way, Qin State, does it have a navy?” Rong Tianci suddenly asked.
After receiving a distress call from his friend Yang Qi some time ago, he learned that his friend, who was buying goods in Siam but mysteriously disappeared, was kidnapped and sold to the Myawaddy Scam Park, and almost lost his life.
Fortunately, the Qin army captured Myawaddy, and the kidnapped victims were rescued.
So after a brief discussion with Yang Qi on the phone, Rong Tianci took some money and found a sea ship to Yangon.
Before setting off again, he consulted a lot of information about Qin.
But we only know that this newly built country was established on the basis of Myanmar. Its predecessor was an armed group that emerged in the Golden Triangle region.
In May, he joined the Burmese civil war and defeated hundreds of thousands of Burmese troops along the way, and also attacked Naypyitaw, the capital of Burma.
When he checked the information, the Legion had occupied most of the land and cities in Burma, overthrew the Burmese government, and established a country called the Great Qin Empire.
But when he was looking for a ship, when others heard that he was going to the port of Qin, they all refused.
It was because of Long Ying’s personal relationship with him that he accepted the order and also received some goods by the way.
“Qin State…should have a navy…” Long Ying also said with some uncertainty: “I only heard that Qin State’s army and air force are very powerful, and they annihilated the Burmese navy fleet.”
“They should have captured and captured Myanmar Navy warships. Although they are small, they can drive away pirates.” After being asked by Rong Tianci, Long Ying was not very optimistic about the Qin Navy.
Although the other party claims to be a ‘Royal Navy Fleet’, such an armed group rising from the interior is unlikely to have large warships. Those warships of Myanmar were also sunk by the Qin army.
But now that the Qin Navy is willing to rescue them, it is much better than waiting to die.
While Long Ying and others were waiting for rescue with a heavy heart, they were dealing with pirate patrol ships.
Hundreds of kilometers away on the coast of Qin, a huge fleet was heading south at cruising speed.
This is a fleet composed of one 13,000-ton large destroyer, two 7,500-ton destroyers, three 3,500-ton frigates, and three 1,500-ton light frigates. .
“Report to the commander! It is confirmed that the other party is the Dragon Kingdom ocean cargo ship ‘Haihong’! It is one hundred and five kilometers away from us!” On the flagship ‘Jingdong’, the correspondent summarized the latest intelligence and handed it to the fleet commander.
Chen Ce, commander of the First Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Great Qin Empire, took the document with his thick palm and glanced at it, then ordered to the naval officers around him: “Order, Jingdong takes off a KA-27 carrier-based helicopter to go to the rescue. .”
“Command the fleet! Use full power! Go south for rescue!”
“Yes!” Everyone in the bridge command room responded loudly.
After the order was conveyed, the entire fleet began to operate at high speed.
The maximum speed of these Qin warships exceeded 30 knots, and it took less than two hours to reach the sea area where the Haihong was seeking help.
On the tail apron of the large destroyer Jingdong, a KA-27 carrier-based helicopter is loaded with ammunition, including a 350mm light aviation torpedo, two 9K114 anti-tank missiles, and a 57mm rocket launcher nest.
There is also a 30mm Gatling cannon and a 7.62mm machine gun in the nose.
It can be said to be “full of martial virtue”!
After the ammunition was replenished, the pilot operated the KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter and began to take off.
In addition to a pilot, there is also a deputy and a weapons operator, who will cooperatively operate this KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter.
0 ·Ask for flowers·· ·····
The maximum flight speed of the KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter is 290 kilometers per hour.
In other words, in just over twenty minutes, the KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter arrived in the sea area where the Haihong accident occurred.
When the KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter approached the Haihong, the pirate patrol ship was docked on the port side of the Haihong. Two hooks hooked the side of the ship, and two pirates were climbing up the rope.
When they discovered the KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter, the pirates were frightened and ran back to the cabin. The 57mm naval gun on the bow also began to rotate, trying to shoot down the KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter.
At the same time, the pirate patrol ship started its engine and began to escape from the Haihong.
The two pirates who were descending from the rope were abandoned by them.
“It’s a helicopter! A helicopter is coming to rescue us!” On the Haihong, the crew looked at the KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter in the air. Although they didn’t know what model it was, the pirate patrol ship ran away in a hurry as soon as it saw the other party approaching. , everyone shouted excitedly.
“Damn it! Why is there a helicopter coming?!” On the pirate patrol ship, Endo put down his binoculars and cursed at the helmsman to steer the ship toward the offshore area where they were hiding.
There are thousands of islands in that offshore area, large and small, and the terrain is complex.
As a former Myanmar Navy officer, N’Do recognized it as a KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter.
The weakness of this anti-submarine helicopter is that the combat radius is a bit short, only more than 300 kilometers, so he only needs to drive the ship to the offshore waters with many islands and maneuver around to get rid of the helicopter.
Of course, the premise is that he dodges the opponent’s attacks.
Seeing the pirate patrol ship trying to escape at full power, the KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter flew directly into the path of the pirate patrol ship and fired several 57mm rockets at the pirate patrol ship.
…. … …
This kind of rocket has enough charge. Once it is hit by one, this small offshore patrol ship of more than 200 tons will be killed!
Seeing the helicopter firing rockets, the pirate patrol ship turned and avoided the rockets.
The KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter did not continue the attack, but instead dealt with the pirate patrol ship, playing with the pirate patrol ship like a cat playing with a mouse.
As long as the pirate patrol ship tries to run towards the eastern offshore sea, it will be attacked by rockets or cannons from the KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter.
The 57mm naval gun on the pirate patrol ship is somewhat backward, there is no fire control radar, and the KA-27 anti-submarine helicopter is moving at high speed, so the pirate patrol ship cannot launch an effective counterattack at all.
After going around like this for an hour.
A huge formation of surface ships suddenly appeared in the north.
The small sea radar on the pirate patrol ship also scanned the huge fleet. In an instant, more than 20 pirates, including Endor, finally knew why the anti-submarine helicopter did not sink them directly.
All the pirates were in despair.
“What a big warship!” On the Haihong, the crew members had already come out of the cabin. When they were wondering why the helicopters carrying weapons did not directly sink the pirate ship, a crew member suddenly pointed to the north and said Exclamations.
Everyone was attracted by his startled breath and looked over.
A fleet of several large warships was heading towards them.
Through the telescope, Long Ying could see the red and black dragon flag of Qin flying on the opposite fleet, as well as the majestic hull. It looked like a large destroyer!
“One! Two! Three! Four!…” Long Ying counted, and a total of nine warships appeared in front of him!
Could this be the Royal Navy of the Qin Empire?
How could it be so huge!
Not only Long Ying, but all the crew members on the Haihong opened their eyes wide and looked at the mysterious fleet in the distance in disbelief.
“Zizi – Great Qin Empire’s Royal Navy fleet here, how are you doing? Is anyone injured?” Qin Navy’s communication came again from the radio station.
“We are fine, no one was injured, but the rear of the cargo ship was hit by a few shells. It may need to dock for a while for repairs.” Long Ying picked up the communicator and said.
“We will arrange a light frigate to escort you to Yangon Port. There is a shipyard there that can be repaired. We will clean up these pirates. Don’t worry and go north.” A reassuring voice came from the communicator.
Then, a 1,500-ton light frigate was separated from the huge fleet, approaching the Haihong, while other warships surrounded the pirate ship.
“This must be at least 10,000 tons!” Long Ying looked at the Qin fleet in the distance with a telescope in his hand, looking at the largest destroyer, and let out a sigh.
Sizzling——
The radio rustled again.
Just when the crew members on the Haihong thought that the Qin Navy contacted them again.
Only a solemn voice was heard.
“The Royal Navy fleet of the Great Qin Empire is patrolling here! I advise you not to make useless resistance! All of you are ordered to get out of the cabin! Come to the deck and put down your weapons and surrender! Otherwise, no one will be left!”
Seeing those warships of thousands of tons and tens of thousands of tons surrounding a small pirate ship, the crew of the Haihong all laughed out loud.
