A helicopter landed on the large deck of the Oriental Sea Walled City. Qin Tao, Vitalia, and two bodyguards got off, and the helicopter flew away again.
"Mr. Qin, don't bother you to come in person, we can complete the transportation work." Zhang Zhen and his assistant 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 daily necessities before continuing on the road. After I got off the ship there, I went directly back to China.
,So, we come here to feel the feelings.”
Of course, Qin Tao had to personally participate in such a glorious action. He had been coordinating and escorting the ship all the way here, and he had not spent much time on this ship.
Now, it is an experience to follow the ship sailing for a period of time and go to Gwadar Port together.
Vitalia smiled, of course she was more qualified to come up. After all, this ship was hers in name, and she also loved sea life. Last time she traveled across the ocean to the East, and she stood on this ship blocking the sea in the East.
The City is much more spacious than that yacht.
"Actually, there is no need to replenish supplies. Everyone can just eat canned food. We were already accustomed to eating canned goods when we were at sea."
In the past, frigates had little space. Every time they went to sea, the decks would be packed with potato bags. Eating canned food was even more common and I had long been used to it.
"There isn't much fresh water, so we have to use it sparingly. We mainly replenish fresh water." Qin Tao said, striding toward the ship island.
Because it is carried by the floating dock of the Shenzhou, the ship does not need to be operated. The main thing is to watch the fixed steel cables and not cause any problems.
Therefore, there are people patrolling back and forth on the deck at all times, but there are not many people on the island.
"In the past, when we went to the ship island, we were only on the shore. This time we are on the sea, and the view is really different." Qin Tao said: "It is more spectacular when sailing."
"Yes, it is more spectacular when sailing. If carrier-based aircraft take off and land on it in the future, it will be even more spectacular."
There is no one else on 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.
Vitalia had a smile on her face: "Sure enough, just 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 and guessed Qin Tao's intentions.
Qin Tao spent so much effort just to block the market? Definitely not. There must be other uses for buying it back!
Zhang Zhen was shocked: "Can Ms. Vitalia understand Chinese?"
You're so careless. If he had known that people could understand him, and if he wasn't too happy, Zhang Zhen would never have said these words.
Qin Tao smiled: "After we go back, let's remove the rust and take care of it first. I don't know yet whether we can be used as an aircraft carrier. If we can, it will be much better than being a blockage. Of course, this is also
Ideally, if repairing it costs more than building a new one, then we don't have to go through such trouble."
Vitalia nodded: "Qin, if you do this, aren't you going to harm me?"
After struggling for so long and using so many connections, what happened in the end? It was agreed that it would be a blockade, but it turned out to be an aircraft carrier?
"How is it possible?" Qin Tao said: "If you really become an aircraft carrier, then you will be a hero of our country. No matter what happens, we can keep your family safe. Vitalia, think about it, you come to the East
What is the purpose of."
Vitalia nodded.
"Moreover, I have already thought of the way for Jin Chan to escape from his shell." Qin Tao said: "For example, after we go back, we will have a jam session. You go to the jam session to try a few tricks, but your luck is too bad. I will pay you for it.
You spent a lot of money on a good green venture group, but you exported it."
Huang Dudu, among the three, which one is the most terrifying?
Of course, it is the middle one. The two before and after affect only one person, but the one in the middle can lose everything, separate wives and children, and destroy the whole family.
"What if I'm lucky?" Vitalia asked with a smile.
"If you're lucky, then I'll be the queen of Ma'ang." Qin Tao said.
What's so lucky about this thing? It's not cheating.
Qin Tao was teasing while looking 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 view of the telescope.
"Have you ever seen six or seven people on a fishing boat? Fishing requires so many people?" Qin Tao said: "Sound the alarm immediately and use radio to notify the Shenzhou and Nikolai Chikel to prepare at any time
Prepare!"
Qin Tao had also thought about using this trick when doing certain things, but after all, this is a Pandora's box. Once it is opened, it cannot be controlled, and it may backfire on him in the end.
So, Qin Tao didn't use it in the end. What was the result? Someone actually used this method without any scruples? Since it was used in this way, don't blame yourself!
Qin Tao has made up his mind.
Aboard the Shenzhou.
"After receiving a notice from President Qin, an unknown ship appeared on the starboard side. President Qin instructed us to immediately follow the No. 3 prepared plan!" Yang Xin shouted loudly: "Fold up all the gangways and prepare high-pressure water dragons!"
After this design was originally developed for the Zhenhua No. 1, it was quickly developed to all ships. The floating dock of the Shenzhou was very slow, so this preventive measure must also be taken.
The side walls of the floating dock are vertical. In order to facilitate work, a ladder is needed to get down at any time. At first, it was just an ordinary gangway, but later it was changed to a segmented one. The lower half of the gangway can be folded up.
In this way, it is at least five meters high from the sea. Unless those pirates know Qinggong, they will not be able to climb up at all.
The floating dock needs to submerge or float in the sea water, so it also needs a high-power water pump to pump water. After transformation, it can easily be converted into a fire boat. Its fire water cannon can spray out hundreds of meters away. It is absolutely
The most powerful water gun of this era is more powerful than those on specialized fishery ships.
All work is being carried out nervously and orderly.
On board the Nikolai Chikel, I was a little nervous.
"Pirates? How is that possible? Are they making a fuss?" The captain looked curiously at the sea in the distance, looking at the ship that was rapidly approaching, feeling a little disapproving.
Although the country to the south is said to be turbulent and has many organizations at war, is it still too bold to say that they dare to go to sea to threaten shipping?
If they do this, they will definitely be suppressed collectively by the international community.
"Yes, we are now in a civilized era, and that kind of skull and crossbones flag does not symbolize bravery and pride." The first mate on the side said, raising the telescope and adjusting the focus. Then, his face 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, revealing their sharp fangs.
At this time, they also need to cheer themselves up, and using weapons is the best way.
Abbas stood on the bow of the boat, raising the AK in his hand high: "Brothers, if we do this, we will get 20 million US dollars! More money than we can spend in a lifetime!"
"That's right, our parents gave us life. Instead of doing nothing, it's better to do it vigorously!" Hassan was very excited with a rocket launcher on his shoulder.
After saying that, he turned around and kissed the rocket launcher in his hand, hoping to hit the target with perfect accuracy. However, if he were to attack the big guy in front of him, there should be no chance of missing the target. As long as he could get close to the shooting range, he would definitely be able to hit the target.
Blow a big hole.
They didn't know what was coming to them.
"They are indeed pirates, and 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 will be a chance." Qin Tao remembers that one time, pirates went to rob a warship, and they died in the end. These guys will become more and more courageous.
As for now, although we don't have weapons on hand, we have something more terrifying than weapons.
"Attention all water cannons, get closer to 300 meters before taking action!" Yang Xin's words were relatively calm. For him, this was nothing to worry about, it was just a small matter.
"We have to help them!" Iris shouted loudly on the Nikolai Chikel: "We have fire water cannons, we use fire water cannons to drive away these damn guys!"
Iris said while running.
The main business of their ship is ocean towing, but it also has other uses. It is equipped with special long-distance fire nozzles, which can extinguish fires in ports or other ships when needed.
Now, this device can also be used against pirates!
"Yes, we want to drive away the pirates!" Faced with danger, they did not flinch. They remembered their mission: to tow the behemoth behind them. Now that they are in danger, we must face it together!
Panting, Iris ran to the bridge of the ship and pushed the fire hose. Before he could aim it, he saw an extremely spectacular sight.
Four water dragons suddenly spurted out from the side of the Shenzhou floating dock. They bloomed in colorful colors under the sun. They drew a graceful arc and headed towards the pirate ship in the distance. When the water dragons fell, the water jets also followed.
Expanding rapidly.
At such a long distance, it is impossible to accurately land on the target's head. The nearest water dragon is still more than ten meters away from the fishing boat. However, the water dragons are continuous and can constantly adjust the direction!
At this moment, the people on the pirate ship were also dumbfounded.
When have you ever seen this kind of scene?
How is this going?
They opened their eyes wide and looked at all this in disbelief.
"Damn it, turn around!" Abbas reacted first and shouted loudly.
The helmsman behind quickly twisted the rudder lever, and the fishing boat drew an arc on the sea.
Plop!
Someone fell into the water!
It felt so good to show off just now, but now I feel so embarrassed.
Hassan was standing there showing off his power just now, but when the fishing boat turned quickly, he lost control of his body and fell down!
The waves were coming, Hassan's RPG had already sunk, and there was a possibility that he himself would go down with the RPG at any time.
However, other pirates did not completely avoid the risk. Although they had evacuated urgently, a water dragon still poured onto their fishing boat.
Wow!
The water fell from the sky like a downpour. They had never seen anything like this in the arid desert. The sound suddenly made everyone feel cold.
Plop, plop!
There were two other people whose bodies swayed under the impact of the water flow, and then were washed down again.
"Give up, give up the action!" Abbas was lying on the boat and did not dare to stand up, for fear of being washed down by the water dragon. At this moment, he wanted to strangle the arms dealer named Nicholas to death. What a bad idea he came up with, the start was not good, they simply
You can't rob such a ship!
This is simply looking for abuse.
However, the ship did not continue to turn because the engine at the back stalled!
Who knows how it stalled? It was always malfunctioning, and this time it was hit by water flow, which made it even worse.
Above the head, the water was still falling, and several other water dragons were also aimed at it.
"Damn it, our ship is going to sink!" Abbas called out in despair.
Four high-pressure water dragons poured down, constantly filling their boat with water. Soon it was up to their knees. The fishing boat also kept sinking and sinking. Finally, the side of the boat was flush with the water.
The turbulent seawater poured in, and the fishing boat under his feet sank completely into the water.
"This is too domineering!" Iris sighed with emotion. He originally planned to use his water cannon to help, but when compared with the two, they were not of the same order of magnitude at all. They were just like a child's water cannon and a fire fighter.
The difference between traffic and water.
A few hundred meters away, the fishing boat was sunk!
"That's right, it's so domineering and mighty. It would be great if I could work on that ship!" said the companion next to him.
This was just an ordinary emotion, no one took it seriously.
Here, Yang Xin is also very happy. They have rehearsed it many times. Although they do not hope to actually use it, since it is used, it must be effective. Now, looking at this scene, they are very satisfied.
So cool!
"Qin, have you prepared in advance?" On the island of Dongfang Ducheng at sea, Vitalia was also extremely surprised. She knew that Qin Tao had prepared for this project for a long time, but she didn't expect that he even defended it.
The pirates' work has been prepared in advance.
Qin Tao smiled: "We are not afraid of thieves stealing, but we are afraid of being missed by thieves. Of course we have to make such preparations. Now it seems that the effect is not bad. In the future, the ships produced by our Mingzhou Group can be equipped with more money."
Professional anti-piracy water cannons will probably sell like hotcakes, by the way, throw some life preservers to them."
Throw a few lifebuoys? Is it useful? Vitalia looked at Qin Tao with some curiosity: "They are all pirates, they are here to rob us. They carry weapons and may pose a threat to us at any time.
."
AK doesn't have much power, but RPG is different. If you use it specifically to fight tanks, even though it only makes a hole, it can penetrate hundreds of millimeters.
Doesn't Qin Tao pay attention to the benevolence of women when he does 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 this. Mr. Qin’s thinking was just different from others.
"I have never seen pirates appear before. As soon as these people come out, they will rob us. It is obvious that they are under the instigation of others. There are so many cargo ships and oil tankers, why do they just like us? Someone must be instigating us behind the scenes!
"
"That's right!" Vitalia was very excited: "They were deceived. We are a tough opponent. They suffered a big loss. After they go back, they will definitely find the person who deceived them to settle the score. Qin, this trick of yours is really powerful.
Got it!"
"Saving one life is better than building a seven-level **!" Qin Tao said with emotion: "I have a compassionate heart, and I am a good person."
Vitalia just smiled and said nothing.
In the sea water, several people were struggling.
Their weapons had been thrown away long ago, leaving them struggling in the sea water. Although they could swim, it was not easy to swim back.
Especially Hassan, who was the first to fall into the water. He had already choked on his saliva several times. He felt that his strength was about to run out. Could he just die like this?
He doesn't want to.
Another wave came down. He held his breath and gritted his teeth. When the wave passed, he wiped the seawater from his face, feeling extremely desperate in his heart.
Wait, what is that?
In the blur, he saw an orange-yellow thing floating on the sea.
Lifebuoy?
He got excited, swam over with his last strength, and climbed up.
The lifebuoy can not only be put around the neck, but can also be sat on. Compared with the two, sitting will be more comfortable.
Hassan was breathing heavily. He looked at the blue sky and white clouds, thankful that he was still alive.
Other lifebuoys were also floating slowly. Abbas was very strong. After swimming up, he put it around his neck and shouted loudly to the people around him: "Quick, find the lifebuoy!"
"Where did you get the life preserver?"
"It was put down on the boat over there."
"How is it possible, we wanted to rob them, but they actually gave us a life preserver?"
The pirates who survived felt a little incredible.
"Yes, they gave us a chance. 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 of the ship are only found in the east." Abbas explained.
"Thank you to the Chinese for not killing us all." Others also sighed with emotion.
Qin Tao didn't know that he originally planned to let them settle accounts with the conspirators behind it, but he didn't expect that there would be such benefits. These people would deliberately avoid Chinese cargo ships when doing things in the future.
As for the other one, they were tit-for-tat and specialized in kidnapping cargo ships belonging to the other country's nationality.
Finally, the fleet sailed out of the Gulf of Aden and entered the wider sea.
"There is a frigate near us." Zhang Zhen pointed to the sea in the distance and said.
"If they want to follow the supervision, let them supervise it. They have no reason to detain our boat. If they dare to get close, we will knock them over!" Qin Tao said.
After the Xingchen incident, the other party also suffered a loss and lost face internationally. Now that the ship we have towed back is completely legal and does not contain any contraband, the other party has no reason to cause trouble to Qin Tao and the others.
If the other party wants to follow, just follow him, and Qin Tao can't stop the other party from following.
"When we were designing, Gwadar Port was a deep-water port, so it would be no problem for our combination to move there." Qin Tao talked about the next thing.
"Is it already under construction there now?"
"Of course not. The construction of the port is a century-old project. We can't rush it, and it won't be that fast. However, let's stop there temporarily and pick up the supplies. It will be no problem."
"Mr. Qin, I just received a telegram." Xu Zhengyang walked in.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "What's the news?"
"Ma Port issued a statement saying that they refused to allow us to dock due to water depth issues at the port."
Hearing this, Vitalia smiled: "We won't really go to Ma Port. Even if the water depth is not enough, we are not afraid."
Qin Tao shook his head: "No, this is still their test. If we want the Oriental Sea City Wall to reach the East safely, it is best to pretend to be very anxious. It seems that we should not go to Gwadar
The port is here, please ask a helicopter to come over and help resupply some supplies, we will take a helicopter to land, and then take a passenger plane to Ma Port."
Still a test?
Vitalia also understood immediately.
The water depth in Ma Port is not deep enough and people are not allowed to dock. If this Oriental Sea Blockade is really going to be used as a blockage, the Green Innovation Company should be very anxious now and run to solve the matter immediately. If they still don't
If you are nervous, that means there is something wrong!
They have to pretend to be more like them.
Vitalia nodded: "Yes, we must go there immediately, but if the water depth of the pier is not deep enough, I'm afraid we still won't be able to dock."
This question sounds unsolvable.
Qin Tao smiled: "Don't forget, we have a dredger!"
Many coastal countries are doing land reclamation. After all, the land area is limited. If you want to continue to develop, you can only rely on the sea. For small places like Ma Gang and the Pearl of the Orient,
In other words, the significance of land reclamation is even more important.
Qin Tao comes to sell this product, can they refuse to agree?
I will definitely treat Qin Tao as a guest here.
One day later, Ma Gang.
"Currently, the Tianjing dredger produced by our group is operating in the southern waters. You may have heard that it has filled an area of about three square kilometers so far, with first-class efficiency." Qin Tao looked at the opposite side.
The man was very sincere: "So, we can easily solve the problem of insufficient draft. We can help dig out a deep-water dock, and the excavated soil can also expand the area of Ma Port."
"Mingzhou Group is willing to use dredgers to help us expand the area?" Sure enough, the people on the other side became excited immediately.
