"Hmph, this kid is quite sensible. [No pop-up novel website]" The sailor who had been quietly observing the sentry's every move on the ship not far away muttered. If the sentry had taken the money, he would have drafted a report tonight, and the unfortunate fellow would have been sent to a punishment camp for several months. But why did the pirate bribe the sentry?
According to regulations, as a member of the Ten-man Regiment, he has no right to directly request an interview with the public political security commissioner in the fleet - unless there is an extremely important matter, so he can only write down the situation that just happened on a piece of paper. The note was thrown into a special box during the activities ashore. Only political security correspondents have the key to this box.
By evening, Shi Zhiqi, who also served as the special commissioner, received two reports on the matter: one from the sentry and one from the members of the "Ten-Man Group".
Someone is going to visit No. 51. Is there anything on it that attracts pirates?
Shi Zhiqi quickly made a judgment: the other party was looking for someone
The possibility of detecting intelligence is low. There is nothing special about Linte 51, whether in terms of power or weapons. And it is not easy to get on the boat - it is not a ship on a pier, and you have to use a small boat to get up and down. If we want to board a ship for reconnaissance, wouldn't a ship docked be better?
The only possibility is that the pirates wanted to board the ship looking for someone.
Who to look for? Shi Zhiqi thought for a while and asked someone to bring a list of the Political Security Bureau's roster of all personnel on the Linte 51 ship. Shi Zhiqi flipped through it and found that the roster of the Political Security Bureau was confidential and was not allowed to be accessed by ordinary people. There is not only each person's reliability assessment, but also a simple resume of the individual.
Among the more than fifty people on the ship, twenty-three were born as "professional pirates" or "non-professional pirates". Shi Zhiqi understood: there must be old acquaintances on this ship among the other gangsters. Want to build relationships.
The next thing he has to judge is "harmfulness". Guanxi has many purposes. The most harmless thing is of course pure friendship or something. However, we must also consider the possibility that the enemy may instigate rebellion.
Shi Zhiqi immediately talked to Chen Haiyang about this new trend: "Should we launch an investigation?"
"Of course, according to the procedure, an investigation should be launched." Chen Haiyang said, "However, since we will soon destroy this group of gangsters, it seems that it does not matter much whether we conduct an investigation or not."
Le Lin said: "Maybe some thieves will be found. Even if not, they can still be used."
"Okay, how are you going to take advantage of the situation?" Wen Desi asked.
"Well, you have to know who the other party wants to see and what he plans to do..."
"That's why it's called unnecessary." Wen Desi said, "This kind of strategic thinking is a typical weak mentality. What can you do with the cannons and typewriters on your ship? But we don't have to make such trouble. Zheng Bao refused to accept the adaptation, and If you don’t want to get out of Lantau Island, kill him first.”
"Zheng Baoke has sixty or seventy large ships and many small ones. There are also more people than us."
"To be exact, there are a total of 71 ships that can be considered large ships." Chen Haiyang said, indicating to the staff to open the curtain on the drawing board behind him.
A map of the entire Lantau Island has clearly marked the specific location of each pirate ship anchored in Tung Chung. In addition, the locations of other long-term anchored vessels are also marked.
"Most inland river boats such as sampan and Changlong are anchored at the mouth of the east and west rivers. These boats are not the main force. Ignore them for the time being."
According to the map, most of the pirate ships are gathered in Tung Chung, with a small number anchored on Tai O Island - a very small island separated from Lantau Island by an extremely narrow waterway.
The members of the special reconnaissance team landed on Lantau Island overnight on the first day of the 6th landing, and on the second day they climbed to the highest peak on the island, Phoenix Mountain, which is 935 meters above sea level. Then he traveled throughout Lantau Island and accurately collected a lot of key information with the help of modern Guantong surveying and mapping equipment.
The special reconnaissance team spent several days investigating and produced an intelligence map that not only accurately marked the location of each ship, but also drew a rough schematic diagram of several residential areas in Tung Chung.
Tung Chung, known as Tung Chung Kou in the Ming Dynasty, is located in the center of the north shore of Lantau Island, facing the sea on one side and surrounded by mountains on three sides. In the Ming Dynasty, it was already the main population settlement of Lantau Island. There are two rivers flowing into the sea here, which are called "Dongyongkou" and "Xichongkou" respectively. The entire island of Lantau Island is mostly mountainous, with small alluvial plains only where the river flows into the sea. So this is also the most densely populated area. There are many small and large villages scattered around.
"It is said that Tung Chung was once the place where the last two emperors of the Southern Song Dynasty hid and took refuge." Chen Haiyang said, "Since we claim to be descendants of the Song Dynasty, this place is so symbolic."
Shi Zhiqi said: "This can only be said to be a legend."
"The last court of the Southern Song Dynasty lingered in the Pearl River Estuary for a long time. It would not be surprising to say that they once temporarily landed on Lantau Island to rest." Wen Desi said, "There are similar legends in many places in the Pearl River Estuary area. It should be It has some historical basis.”
Shi Zhiqi asked: "The enemy has a large number of people on board, and the terrain is advantageous, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. Can our frontal attack be effective?"
Chen Haiyang said: "Although Dongyongkou has a dangerous terrain and is conducive to defense, the pirates do not have a systematic defense system on the sea. They have no fortifications on the shore and only dispatched a small number of personnel to look out at the promontory. The mountainous area behind them We didn’t arrange any defensive measures, so we could completely catch him off guard from behind.”
Chen Haiyang's battle plan is to outflank Hai-6. Navy ships organized a blockade outside Tung Chung Port and attacked the port. The navy and some sailors boarded from the back of Lantau Island, carrying 12-pound mountain howitzers and rockets, and climbed to the west of Tung Chung Entrance on Lau Kok Shan and Sheung Ling Shan. From the mountains, they bombarded the pirate ships in Tung Chung Entrance.
Once a pirate ship is attacked unexpectedly from the side and rear, it will inevitably break out of the harbor. It fell right under the guns of the fleet that formed the blockade.
In a chaotic battle in a narrow harbor, the side with more people and more ships may have an advantage. Once it reaches the open sea, the regular navy with advantages in navigation, command, and firepower can give full play to its strengths. Chen Haiyang firmly believes in this. Even if it is a modified spy boat, the damage effect it can achieve with a single fire is astonishing.
"We will start taking action in three days," Chen Haiyang said. "The cargo will be completely unloaded and all ships will be put into use."
In order to strengthen the alert, Shi Zhiqi replaced two-thirds of the navy personnel on Linte 51 in the name of defense adjustment the day before. There are specialized investigators among them - their task is to prevent and detect possible conspiracy activities. ,
Subsequently, at his repeated request, Linte No. 51 was transferred to the outermost security circle - purely to facilitate the spies to have the opportunity to board the ship secretly - Chen Haiyang felt that this was simply a waste of time. Looking for trouble, but could not withstand Shi Zhiqi's tenacity to "make new contributions" on the political and security front. Furthermore, the other party's request for a thorough investigation is in line with the organization's regulations.
The people dispatched by Wang You had been patrolling nearby under the cover of fishermen. When it was discovered that Linte 51 had moved to the outermost edge, Wang You decided to take a risk - otherwise he would not be able to explain to Zheng Bao.
When Wang You was escorted into the cabin by the sailors, Shi Shishi immediately recognized the man in front of him and was shocked. He stood up immediately.
"Woof...manager"
Wang You indicated with his expression and bowed deeply: "Wang You pays homage to your lord"
"Don't dare, don't dare, please sit down, please sit down." Shi Shishi quickly gave up his seat and "make tea."
"Don't bother." Wang You cupped his hands and looked around, asking him to stay away and discuss secret matters.
Shi Shishi was in trouble. Nowadays, unlike before, there are no "confidant" people around you at all. Everyone is just a superior-subordinate relationship. Although subordinates are absolutely obedient to their superiors, it is not a "caring and caring" relationship. In other words, he has no secrets on this ship.
Talking privately with the past manager was still at this juncture when conflicts with pirates could occur at any time. Manager Wang's eye drops were applied just in time.
However, Manager Wang would never reveal his intentions without rejecting the person. Shi Shishi was very embarrassed. He couldn't just drive him away - his reputation was extremely bad, and more importantly, he couldn't explain it to the director. Shi Shishi clearly understands the thinking of Australians, who require clear conclusions on everything. There must be no ambiguity. Now that Wang You is on this ship, it is impossible to hide the past. If you don't even know what the other person's purpose is, there will be no way to start the report.
Thinking of this, he asked everyone in the cabin to retreat, leaving only the orderly - this was to leave a witness for himself.
"This is my confidant, you can do whatever you want in front of him."
Wang You whispered: "Master Shi, are you okay?" He looked at the cabin casually. He was surprised by the cleanliness and beauty of the cabin, especially the furniture and furnishings in the cabin, which were very exquisite - and chaotic and dirty. The cabins of pirate ships are completely different.
"I didn't expect you to do well in Kun-Australia."
"It's okay, it's okay," Shi Shishi said casually, "My younger brother is working in the Australian and Song Dynasty navy. He can be regarded as an officer."
"Australian Song Dynasty? Oh," Wang You remembered. The Australians claimed to be descendants of the defeated Yashan army of the Song Dynasty. They fled overseas and established a country in Australia. "Looking at his appearance, he is also a first-rate general."
"Where, where," Shi Shishi shook his head quickly, "I left the general and still checked several levels. I am the captain of the Aosong Navy. As before, I am in charge of several ships." He looked at Wang You with inquiring eyes, " Mr. Wang, I haven’t heard from you since the battle on Nanri Island. I wonder where you are employed now?” v! ~!
