7: 95 am, south of the Xia County.
The Hainan Airlines helicopter at the Guam military base in Lijian Province lowered its altitude and turned on its searchlights to illuminate the situation on the sea surface. It also used an external loudspeaker to broadcast in English.
"We are Lijian Province's maritime patrol helicopter. What happened to you? Do you need help?" The Hainan Airlines helicopter from Lijian Province did not immediately identify the pirates.
After all, the pirates in modern society did not have to fly the pirate flag like the pirates in movies. In addition, in the dark environment, the pilots of the Hainan Airlines helicopter could not observe the pirates carefully. At the same time, the pirates were very well-behaved. They were all "rescuing" the goods obediently. They behaved like crew members.
Of course, the pirates also had their flaws!
There were too many pirates. Even for a cargo ship of tens of thousands of tons, the number of pirates was a little too many. However, the pilots of the Hainan Airlines helicopter seemed to have overlooked this flaw.
Among the pirates, there was no lack of people who understood English. When the news spread extremely quickly, the pirates began to become nervous, especially the pirate leaders.
After more than ten minutes of "rescuing" the goods, most of the more than twenty pirate ships had harvested forty to fifty wooden boxes filled with dehydrated vegetables. The pirate ship with the most harvested even more than a hundred wooden boxes. Even the unluckiest pirate ship had harvested thirty boxes.
There were still many wooden boxes floating on the sea surface. The ASSN ship had transported 7,355 tons of dehydrated vegetables, and each wooden box only contained 5.570 tons. In other words, there were a total of 667,555 wooden boxes.
Although the explosion caused by the pirates just now only blew up a portion of the wooden boxes of dehydrated vegetables, even if it was only a portion of the wooden boxes, there were more than ten thousand of them!
There were a total of twenty-two pirate ships present. Even if they were distributed evenly, each pirate ship would be able to obtain about 055 wooden boxes. However, the biggest problem was that these small pirate ships could not hold so many!
Therefore, the current situation was that the wooden boxes of dehydrated vegetables floating on the sea surface far exceeded the pirates' needs. However, if the Hainan Airlines helicopter from Lijian Province caused trouble, the pirates would not be able to continue obtaining the wooden boxes of dehydrated vegetables. They might even be arrested by Lijian Province.
As the saying goes, cutting off someone's path to wealth was like killing their parents!
The pirate leaders quickly discussed the countermeasures. In the end, all the pirate leaders reached an agreement to launch an all-out attack and shoot down the Hainan Airlines helicopter from Lijian Province.
After making the decision, the pirates took out their RPG launchers. This kind of weapon was the ultimate godly weapon of pirates. It was easy to carry around, powerful, and had a wide range of uses. It was practically a must-have weapon for pirates!
In the dark night, more than 85 individual RPG rockets were aimed at the Hainan Airlines helicopter in Lijian Province at almost the same time and were fired.
More than 85 individual RPGs pierced through the night like cannons.
The co-pilot of the Hainan Airlines helicopter in Lijian Province was wondering why there were so many crew members on a freighter. The main pilot roared in anger and quickly pulled the helicopter's joystick.
However, how could the climbing speed of the Hainan Airlines helicopter be faster than an RPG?
"Boom boom boom boom ~ ~ ~"
Dense explosions rang out as the Hainan Airlines helicopter from Lijian Province exploded in the night sky. Fortunately, it wasn't directly above the pirate's position. Otherwise, the pirates would definitely be caught in their own trap.
After dealing with the Hainan Airlines helicopter in Lijian Province, the pirate leader nicknamed Big Shark used a loudspeaker and shouted, "Brothers, hurry up and reap the benefits! I reckon that there will be more planes coming to investigate the situation here. Let's reap the benefits and run! "
The pirates responded one after another and sped up the movements of their hands as they scooped up the wooden boxes floating on the sea.
The fur seals' pirate ship wasn't big. After scooping up more than 755 wooden boxes of dehydrated vegetables, it had almost reached the pirate ship's load-bearing limit. If they were to continue, there was a high possibility that the ship would capsize.
"Brothers, prepare to retreat!" The fur seals roared and called out to more than ten of their underlings before steering the pirate ship and leaving.
The fur seals weren't greedy. Although they weren't very smart, they knew that the consequences of being insatiable were usually not good.
A portion of the pirate leaders noticed the fur seals retreating. They mocked the fur seals, thinking that they were too cowardly. The pirate ship's waterline was still very high, so they should continue to load more.
It was also because there were too many wooden boxes of dehydrated vegetables on the sea that the other pirates mocked the fur seals. If there were fewer wooden boxes on the sea, they would be more than happy for the fur seals to leave.
Faced with all kinds of mockery, the fur seals ignored them and insisted on steering the pirate ship away. Two pirate gangs that had a better relationship with the fur seals also left with them. Their pirate ship had more or less been loaded and there was a high chance that the ship would sink if they continued to load more.
Big Shark's pirate ship was bigger and had more people. Watching the fur seals leave, Big Shark frowned slightly and asked loudly, "Parker, how many have we scooped up?"
Parker was the vice-captain and was in charge of counting the wooden boxes of dehydrated vegetables. "Captain, we've scooped up a total of 993 wooden boxes. We can still scoop up about 607 more. If we're slightly overweight, we can still scoop up another 757 wooden boxes. "
Big Shark looked at the electronic watch on his wrist and his face sank slightly. "Parker, we're retreating!"
"Captain, we …" Parker tried to persuade Big Shark but was stopped by Big Shark.
"Shut up! We're retreating immediately! Full speed ahead and retreat immediately! " Big Shark roared. The crew stopped scooping up the boxes and carried out Big Shark's order.
In less than three minutes, Big Shark's pirate ship had also left the area where the ASSN ship was involved. So far, only four pirate ships had left. The remaining eighteen pirate ships were still in the area where the incident happened, desperately scooping up wooden boxes of dehydrated vegetables.
The wind and waves in the southern waters of the Xia Continent were surprisingly calm and there were almost no waves. This made the pirates feel more at ease and dared to overload. They only hoped to scoop up more wooden boxes of dehydrated vegetables. For the pirates, every wooden box was a valuable treasure. How could they be willing to leave these treasures behind?
However, about twenty-five minutes after the explosion of the Hainan Airlines helicopter in Lijian Province, three unmanned drones appeared in the night sky.
These drones obviously belonged to the Guam military base in Lijian Province!
In the drone control room in the Guam military base, three remote operators reported, "Sir, we've arrived at the site of the 'Seagull' incident. We found a large number of floating objects on the sea and speculated that there was a shipwreck in the area. At the same time, we found a large number of small ships in the area. We speculated that these small ships belonged to the pirates. Also, we suspect that the crash of the 'Seagull' is related to the pirates. "
A middle-aged man with a lieutenant colonel epaulet nodded with a cold expression. "Send out an inquiry message and lower the altitude to find out the identity of the pirates. If they're really pirates, you know what to do, right? "
"Yes, sir!" The captain of the remote operators of the drones replied affirmatively.
The three drones sent out radio messages to ask about the identity of the pirates, but how could the pirates answer? After a simple discussion, the leaders of the remaining eighteen pirate ships decided to use their last RPG rocket launchers to attack.
The 8 RPG rockets were fired at the 8 drones, but they did not do anything to them. The drone was more agile than the Hainan Airlines helicopter, and its size was also smaller than the Hainan Airlines helicopter. It was a piece of cake for the drone to dodge the RPG without tracking function.
"The suspected targets launched the attack first. Increase the threat level and execute the destruction plan!" The captain of the remote operators of the drones gave the order.
The three unmanned drones quickly launched an attack. Under the control of the remote operators, they launched medium-sized missiles.
There was a huge difference between missiles and RPG rockets!
RPG rockets were direct and didn't have tracking capabilities, nor did they have advanced guidance capabilities. However, missiles were different. Missiles could lock onto their targets with high accuracy!
The three drones fired six medium-sized missiles, all of which were focused on their targets. The six small pirate ships were reduced to pieces. Not only that, but the other pirate ships near the six small pirate ships also suffered a certain degree of aftershock.
The remaining twelve pirate ships were frightened and fled in panic. However, they had collected too many dehydrated vegetable boxes and could not increase their speed at all.
Although the three drones had finished firing their missiles, they still had the ability to attack. The three drones used the 95mm cannon developed by the Metal Storm Company. They had a good overall structure, recoil management, design control system, and remote control system.
The 95mm cannon might not be a big threat to the ships, but it was definitely fatal to the crew! The three unmanned drones lowered their altitude and shot at the small pirate ship. In an instant, it created a bloody storm.
The powerful Lijian Province did not care about the lives of the pirates. The three drones chased after the twelve small pirate ships. After more than an hour of repeated pursuit, none of the small pirate ships escaped!
Other than the four pirate ships that had escaped, the remaining eighteen pirate ships were all massacred by the drones of Lijian Province!
Not only that, the powerful Lijian Province announced the elimination of the pirates in Lijian Province at nine o 'clock in the morning in the Southeast Asian countries. They deliberately said that the sea involved was the high seas near the Xia of Xia. It was as if they were provoking the Xia of Xia.
When Shi Lei woke up, Izur sent this message back to him. Shi Lei's lips curled into a cold smile. Since the Lijian Province was so powerful, Shi Lei would be sorry if he did not take advantage of the opportunity to intimidate them.
