Within a few minutes, more than a dozen firepower points had started within a distance of one or two hundred meters around the village. The four light machine guns were the most powerful, so they were deployed on two roads. Because that would definitely be the main escape route for the pirates.

Road, so these two firepower points are the strongest, with two light machine guns and two submachine guns at each location. For the other 34 firepower points, the main weapons are submachine guns, two at each location.

Those pirates were awakened from their sleep and found that they were on the verge of death. They must have escaped without even bothering to wear clothes, let alone weapons. Even if some pirates caught weapons, the small number of broken rifles and machetes would not be able to survive at all.

They are no match for two submachine guns. There are only a few dozen pirates in the whole village now, and any single firepower point can suppress them all.

Some people swam out from the edge of the mangroves by the river. They all fled deep into the dense forest and were beaten back when they encountered fire points. There were several observers on the destroyer, specifically watching the mangroves by the river.

As soon as these pirates showed up, they were immediately discovered. Without saying a word, the ship lowered its muzzle with two 12.7mm machine guns and began to shoot into the river. Small water columns rose up in clusters by the river. The water columns were still white at first, and for a few seconds

The kung fu turned red.

The pirates who were hit screamed once or twice at most, and then sank. This huge 12.7 mm bullet is not used to hit people at all. It is used to hit semi-hard targets such as aircraft and torpedo boats. One bullet

It's as big as a pen. Now when you use it to hit someone, it's like chopping melons and vegetables. If you hit it on the torso, the effect is like being hit by a sledgehammer; if you hit it on the head, the whole head will usually explode.

When hit on the limbs, it feels as if they have been chipped away by large shrapnel, and at most there is some damage left.

The destroyer simply turned on its searchlight and shone it on the surrounding river. Many pirates in the river were immediately unable to hide. They were shot one after another, turned into bloody gourds, and sank.

Far behind the village, more and more firepower points were fired. The captain counted, 25 of the 36 firepower points had been fired. This shows that the pirates were panicking and were already scattered. In this case, it can be said that the overall situation has been decided.

Now, you can attack the village.

The captain asked Xiang Xiaoqiang for his opinion. Xiang Xiaoqiang looked at the village in flames with his binoculars, assessed the situation, and felt that it was time to enter the village. The captain immediately turned around and ordered:

"Cease fire across the ship."

The gunner immediately picked up the ship's phone and issued an order:

"Ceasefire for all ships!"

Within a few seconds, the entire destroyer's guns, large and small, stopped.

The entire river suddenly became much quieter, with only the intermittent and irregular sound of submachine guns in the distance. The village on the bank was on fire, and the sound of "crackling" trees burning, as well as some faint screams, could be heard faintly.

A signal flare was raised from the ship, which was a signal to order shore troops to enter the village.

…

The moment the sound of artillery stopped on the river, all the firepower points on the periphery knew that they were about to attack. The sailors raised their necks and saw the signal flares rising in the sky in the distance. They immediately got up from their hiding places, holding submachine guns and bayonets.

Rifles, holding light machine guns, approaching the pirate village.

Entering the village, the view immediately became extremely good. The fires burning everywhere were shining like daylight, and the village was the worst bombed. The formerly lush mangroves were now lying on the ground, and the view was wide.

"Beware of pirates hiding in broken trees on the ground!"

The officers reminded their soldiers in this way to make these excited sailors be more vigilant. But looking at the tragic scene, the collapsed and burning bamboo buildings, the blackened branches and leaves, the mutilated corpses everywhere, and the large and small craters, it is difficult to imagine the experience.

After such a catastrophe, pirates will bravely ambush the sailors.

Sailors from various firepower points entered the village in twos and threes, restored the squad structure in an open space in the village, and then began to search the village. The shelling lasted for a full forty minutes. In such a small village, there were few bamboo buildings still standing.

Most of the bamboo buildings were lying on the ground, some had turned into a pile of bamboo charcoal, and some were still burning. From time to time, a leg or an arm was stepped on the ground. There were also some dying pirates with all limbs lying on the ground.

I crawled hard, but my intestines came out and were dragged behind, sticking out a long way.

What surprised the sailors was that there were actually many living pirates in the village. Most of them were naked, and they obviously jumped out of bed. They instinctively squatted in the crater, and several of them were so scared that they peed.

They easily picked them up and drove them to an open space in the village at gunpoint. After counting, there were 18 people in total. There were also several women among them, all of whom were dark-skinned and ugly.

They were the indigenous women from nearby fishing villages. Most of them were also naked, squatting on the ground, covering their bodies, and howling.

The company commander ordered the translator to have the 18 natives stand in a row, and then the sailors lined up behind them, prepared their submachine guns, and set up four light machine guns. All the sailors knew what was going to happen next.

At this time, some soldiers felt unbearable in their hearts. After all, there were women inside. But the company commander seemed to see through their thoughts and said loudly:

"Brothers, let's think about what these pirates have done! Think about the broken corpses in the sea! Think about the Xiangjiang incident! Hundreds of innocent lives were drowned in the sea! Hundreds of young ladies were killed by them

Sold for **! Have they ever shown mercy to our women? When you punished those dozen pirates in the afternoon, weren't you in high spirits? What's wrong? Have you exhausted your anger and now have compassion?

?... Damn it, please soften your heart and have compassion, but it’s not for these beasts!”

A few words immediately knocked away the compassion in the hearts of some sailors. When the Xiangjiang incident was mentioned, almost all Ming people gritted their teeth. They all remembered how they hated the incident when they first saw it in the newspaper.

At that time, I felt like I wished I could catch those pirates and execute them in a hurry. Now that these pirates are in front of me, waiting to be killed, there is no way I can't do it.

When these pirates and gangsters heard the translator tell them to line up, they thought they were going to be tied up, so they all cooperated. They never imagined that these regular troops did not intend to take them back for trial, but to execute them on the spot.

.

The company commander shouted:

"Prepare!"

The sailors stood in a neat row with a "swish".

"Raise the gun!"

"Crash!" 18 submachine guns were raised, aiming at the pirates' rear.

Some pirates felt something was wrong, turned around and immediately shouted loudly. Many pirates reacted quickly and ran away.

"put!"

No matter how fast they ran, they were not as fast as bullets. A dozen submachine guns fired at once, knocking down more than ten of them at once. The remaining few who reacted quickly had already run a certain distance, but were still swept to the ground by bullets.

Another one ran with all his strength and covered dozens of meters in the blink of an eye. A light machine gun aimed at him and fired a burst, knocking down the last "Scud".

"Alright, enter the riflemen!" the company commander ordered, "Each man, give them some extra help!"

A dozen riflemen came up with rifles with bright bayonets, and stabbed them into the backs of the pirates on the ground. At this time, a few sailors began to vomit. Soon, many riflemen with bayonets also vomited.

Already.

The company commander knew that they were vomiting, not because he sympathized with these pirates, but because the recruits suddenly saw too much blood and their nerves couldn't bear it. He didn't do anything harsh, but pulled out his pistol and helped them give them the rest with his own hands.

The corpse is replenished with gunshots.

…

Then the sailors began to count the corpses in the village. Most of these corpses were not complete, so it was difficult to count the exact number. Pointing back and forth, there were almost three people who were killed by bombings in the village and people who were crowded into bamboo buildings and burned to death.

A dozen or so. Including the eighteen just executed, that's nearly fifty.

Then, the company commander asked the sailors at each firepower point to report that he had killed about a few people in the forest. The two firepower points guarding the path killed more people, about a dozen each. The remaining more than 20 small firepower points

There are probably one or two firepower points at one place.

This is almost hundreds of people. Among them, there are almost sixty or seventy pirates, and the rest are nearby gangsters. The sixty or seventy pirates, plus the more than forty pirates eliminated on the Yongan Princess in the morning, add up to

More than a hundred, which is about the same number as the two pirate captives mentioned.

In other words, even if there are still some pirates in this pirate village who have slipped through the net, there won't be too many of them.

"Sir, what is this?"

With the strong wind whipped up by the fire, some pieces of paper flew over. A soldier grabbed one.

"Ah, this is money! It's banknotes!"

"banknote?!"

Several soldiers picked up the "pieces of paper" on the ground and looked at them. The company commander also picked up one.
Chapter completed!
