Chapter 228 Professional Rescuers

It was half past ten at night, and both Fernando and Anton Cer had woken up. After waking up, looking at the corpses on the boat and listening to Gao Yang's introduction to the situation, the two of them were both frightened and angry.

Farah told everything he knew. The ship still needed to sail for twelve hours to reach land, and it was impossible for Gao Yang and the others to catch up with another pirate ship escorting the crew at sea. In order to deliver the hostages as soon as possible, On the shore, the two fishing boats were traveling at full speed.

According to the agreement, the first mate will lead his accomplices to sail the ship to land. Although there is no port for berthing, and it is impossible for large cargo ships to approach the shore, there is still no problem entering within twelve nautical miles from the coast, and entering within the territorial waters of Somalia.

It's ironic to say that Somalia is a country of pirates. However, as long as it enters the territorial waters, no matter which country's warship it is, it will not choose to board the ship to resolve the hostages, because that will infringe Somalia's national security. sovereignty.

As for the crew members who did not cooperate with the first mate, they will be sent to the shore for custody, and they will be used as hostages for ransom. Similarly, as long as they go ashore, no one on the warship will forcefully rescue them. The principle is still the same, that way would violate Somalia's sovereignty.

The pirates who arrived in Somalia are still holding more than a dozen ships in their hands and are still negotiating the ransom amount with the shipowners. Some crew members have been detained for more than a year. If they are not released for a long time, so if Koro If the crew of the Erdirin were also detained, they would probably suffer the same fate.

There were three pirate ships that robbed the Coraldirin, all fishing boats of about 100 tons towing two speedboats. One of the fishing boats was left behind on the Coraldilyn. The pirates on board also stayed on board the merchant ship. The remaining two fishing boats escorted Gao Yang and the crew back to land.

The destination of the pirate ship escorting the crew was a small village on the shore. All the pirates or their families gathered there. There were at least 200 people who could take up guns to fight. If Gao Yang and the others failed to rescue the crew from the pirate ship Come out, then you can only log in and then try to rescue.

Six people have to choose from more than 200 people. This choice is too difficult, and it can almost be said to be an impossible task. Gao Yang and the others had every reason to give up the rescue operation and instead rescue the merchant ship from the pirates. Although there were eight pirates left on the merchant ship and it was very difficult to force board the ship, it was undoubtedly more difficult than rescuing the crew from the shore. is more feasible.

After listening to Farah's introduction, Fernando remained silent for a long time. After a long time, he said with a face full of pain: "Personally, I tend to save people first. But the reason why this matter turned out to be what it is now, It's because there's something wrong within my crew. I can't ask you for anything, so you decide what to do."

Gao Yang can completely let go of the Coraldirin.

Because if they just had to face pirates, they would never end up in such a situation. If there was a problem with the Coraldilin, they would have to bear all the consequences themselves. This is true, but Gao Yang didn't want things to go wrong. Forget it.

Many of Gao Yang's things and equipment are still on another pirate ship. Although they can still buy more, Gao Yang doesn't want to just give things to those pirates. In addition, he can't let go of the first mate who tricked him. Not avenging one's revenge is not a noble style.

For Gao Yang, there were only two choices, either to rescue the crew members who were taken to land first, or to rescue the merchant ship that fell into the hands of the pirates. The option of leaving was not within the scope of consideration.

After a moment of silence, Gao Yang looked at Antoncel and said, "I want to hear your opinion."

Anton Cer only took over the work, but he didn't care about the battle at all. Of course, it was not his turn to take charge. So whether to save people or leave now, Anton Cer only had the right to make suggestions at most, but not to make decisions.

Anton Cer did not hesitate so much, and said solemnly: "I think we should save people and rescue the crew members who have not rebelled, but it is up to you to decide whether you can save them or not."

Gao Yang nodded and said: "When you took the job, you promised that there would be no risk to the ship protected by us. We are one, so this is equivalent to our promise. Now the merchant ship is hijacked no matter who it is. Responsibility, at least we did not do what we promised, so I decided to save them, at least after making an attempt."

Gao Yang also had another meaning that he didn't say, that is, they were going to set up a maritime security company. If something happened to the merchant ship they were protecting this time, it would be a stain that couldn't be washed away. But if something happened to the merchant ship itself at this time, problem, thus causing an extremely unfavorable situation, but also rescued people. This will undoubtedly be extremely beneficial publicity for their future security company.

Fernando had mixed feelings and said: "I'm very glad that you are still willing to help us, but I hope there will be no crew casualties in the rescue operation. Otherwise, I would prefer to pay a ransom."

Gao Yang nodded and said: "Understood, it depends on our understanding of the situation. If we can't rescue, then we leave. If there is a chance, we will attack again. Well, since we have made a choice, we should sail the ship now." It’s over, we’ve been delayed for more than three hours now, we can’t waste any more time.”

There were two captains on a small fishing boat. They were able to maneuver the small fishing boat with ease. After asking for the direction, the fishing boat, which had been drifting on the sea for a while, immediately started to move again.

Before Grolev and the four of them woke up, Gao Yang first counted all the weapons. They now have two sniper rifles with not a single bullet missing, and three AK rifles with more than 460 rounds of bullets. , even if the gun is broken, the number of bullets is not too many, and there are three pistols, but the effect of the pistols is minimal.

As for protective equipment such as body armor and helmets, there is no equipment such as night vision goggles that can improve combat effectiveness. Now there are only two night vision goggles mounted on guns, but in terms of time , it was already daytime when Gao Yang and the others landed, so unless he planned to wait until night to launch the attack, the night vision goggles would be of little use.

The current weapons have neither suppressive firepower nor heavy firepower, and even automatic rifles have too few bullets. It is okay to fight a short raid, but the problem is that he still has to rescue the hostages. If he fails to fight quickly, , if the war situation falls into a tense situation, the trouble will be big.

Gao Yang has been thinking hard about how to fight this bad battle to rescue the hostages. At the same time, he also laments that he seems to have failed in the task of rescuing people. Whether it is active or passive, thinking about the recent battles, it turns out that They were all rescuing hostages. Gao Yang felt angry and funny. It would be more appropriate to call them mercenaries instead of professional rescuers. (To be continued...)
