Chapter 324 Sorry, I signed a confidentiality agreement
"Of course, all expenses incurred will be borne by me," Ayang added.
He is a yellow man, and is said to serve in a mysterious force in Asia. Although he is not tall, he is very strong.
To be precise, there was not a single ordinary person who could appear on the Hutchison merchant ship and be sent to participate in this operation.
Mike pulled up his mask and nodded slowly, "I can call my former comrade, but the price may be beyond your expectation."
"According to current market conditions, if you want to DIY a gun that you are satisfied with, the minimum cost is US$3,000. Even if you use some high-end accessories, the price will be around US$4,000."
"Can you accept this price?"
After thinking for a moment, Ayang nodded and said, "Sure. Although our boss is young, he is very generous. If you can go out on more field trips, you can earn four thousand dollars very quickly."
Hearing this, Mike nodded and said, "Indeed, I heard from them that our boss, Lin, is only in his twenties?"
Ah Yang said: "Yes, everyone said so. I also feel a little unbelievable now."
"A person in his twenties can have such wealth and can even get the polar bear's warship. This level of power is completely beyond my imagination."
After sighing, Ayang said, "I heard that the company will pay for outstanding employees to go on paid vacation in Hong Kong Island every year, and they will also have the opportunity to be received by the boss. I don't know if I have such an opportunity..."
Mike was about to say something when he found that the speedboat was slowly slowing down. There were more than twenty black people and a yellow man with a somewhat mean look standing on the shore. They should be the target of their operation this time.
The speedboat did not dock, but stopped about fifty meters away from the shore.
"Get ready for battle!"
The captains of the two speedboats gave orders at the same time.
Without any hesitation, the team members lay down on the speedboat and started to set up their guns.
Although there are only five people on each speedboat, the firepower configuration is very reasonable, including a sniper rifle, two rifles, a machine gun, and a precision marksman rifle.
This configuration was evolved by Mike based on the team configuration of the Navy SEALs.
On the other hand, the pirates on the shore all held various types of AKs in one hand and kept pulling the trigger towards the sky, as if to declare their sovereignty.
As for the so-called tactical moves, they have no concept of anything like that at all.
For these completely uneducated pirates, being able to fire the bullets but whether they could hit the target depended on God's will.
After some observation, Mike determined that the only threat on the shore was the black man holding the RPG. Although his firing posture was completely non-standard, no one could guarantee what the consequences would be once the trigger was pulled.
"If something unexpected happens later, kill the RPG first."
Ayang nodded in response to Mike's instructions and placed the center point of the sight on the black man holding the RPG.
As the only sniper in the team, at this distance, it is no exaggeration to say that even if he shoots with his eyes closed, he can guarantee to kill the opponent in the first time.
"Are you from Hong Kong Island? Did you bring the ransom?" Babu held up a loudspeaker with his dark arms and shouted in not very standard English.
Babu is the leader of this group of pirates. Unlike most of the malnourished people, he looks a little fat. As for what he wears, it is also a fancy style, green pants with a red and fancy shirt with an open collar, revealing black fat.
In places like the Caribbean, obesity often means wealth.
"The ransom has been brought. Don't shoot. We will have a boat landing."
The captain of the other speedboat finished speaking on the loudspeaker, then tilted his head slightly and said into the radio: "Mike, we are about to land, I hope you can provide fire cover."
"The lives of our Swordfish Squad are in the hands of your Wild Fox Squad."
"Be careful when you do it, don't miss the target."
Mike smiled and said, "Then you really made the right choice. Don't worry, we will take care of everything."
As the speedboat docked, the Swordfish team successfully completed the landing. Two team members were left on the speedboat, a machine gunner and a sniper.
The captain threw the heavy cloth bag onto the beach, making a hole, and said, "Here's the ransom. A total of one million."
Chen Baixiang, who was standing by, although his hands and feet were tied, still showed an extremely excited expression, and even started winking at the captain of the Swordfish Team.
Although, he didn't know when he met such a powerful friend who could find mercenaries to rescue him, as long as he could return to Hong Kong Island alive, nothing else mattered.
Only after experiencing life and death moments can you know the preciousness of life.
Looking at the cloth bag, Babu's eyes were filled with greed, and he quickly signaled to the pirate beside him to take the bag back.
Then, he unzipped it himself, revealing the colorful banknotes inside.
"What do you mean?"
"Don't think I don't know, this is Zimbabwean dollars, I want one million US dollars!"
Looking at the money in the bag, Bob roared angrily, his dark face full of anger.
It's like, a gorilla in a manic state!
"Open fire!"
Upon hearing this word in the headset, the members of the Swordfish Team immediately lay on the ground and protected their heads.
The next second, various gunshots rang out!
Chu Chu Chu!
Among them, the two machine guns made the loudest noise, continuously spewing out deadly flames!
As for the black pirate carrying the RPG, his head was blown up by a sniper rifle as the gunshot just rang out, turning him into a headless corpse, falling heavily on the beach, raising a cloud of dust.
After a round of salvos, there was no pirate standing on the beach. Only Chen Baixiang, covered in blood and flesh, was left standing there with a dull expression, like a sculpture.
Broken limbs, blood, yellow sand, blue sky and white clouds actually formed an extremely artistic picture.
"Cease fire!"
After hearing the ceasefire order, the captain of the Swordfish team shook his head, shook off the sand on his body, stood up, drew the pistol from his waist, and took two team members to check one by one.
After making sure there were no survivors, he closed the bag containing one million Hong Kong dollars and threw it to a team member beside him. He slowly walked up to Chen Baixiang and asked, "You are not injured, are you?"
Chen Baixiang was like a sculpture, still motionless.
The captain shrugged and said, "Don't blame me, my friend. This is indeed the most effective way."
As he said that, he swung his arm and slapped him in the face!
Snapped!
A clear voice sounded, and Chen Baixiang, who had been in a daze, seemed to come back to life.
"Gentlemen, who are you from?"
"I didn't see anything, please don't kill me..."
Perhaps because he was too nervous, Chen Baixiang subconsciously switched to Cantonese, leaving everyone confused.
Watching with his own eyes how living lives were turned into severed limbs in less than a minute, even though these people were heinous pirates, Chen Baixiang still found it hard to accept.
After all, before this, the so-called war and death were still far away from him.
"Do you speak English? We are employees of Hutchison Security. We received orders from our boss to come and rescue you back to Hong Kong Island."
After hearing this, Chen Baixiang finally reacted and said quickly: "I can speak English, I can speak English."
"Employees of Hutchison Security? Who is your boss? Do I know him?"
Chen Baixiang couldn't remember anyone in his circle of friends who had such great power that could make such a big fuss to save him.
But the name Hutchison Whampoa sounds familiar, as if I have heard it somewhere.
The captain of the Swordfish team shrugged and said, "Our big boss is called Lin Zehao. As for whether you know him or not, I don't know."
"Anyway, we are just following orders."
"Now, let's get on board."
As he said this, he pulled out his dagger and cut the ropes that bound Chen Baixiang's hands and feet. Although Chen Baixiang was still confused, he nodded and said, "Thank you."
As the speedboat started again, Chen Baixiang finally left this terrifying island.
Looking at the land getting farther and farther away, Chen Baixiang swore that he would never come to the Caribbean again in his life!
"If there's no problem, let's retreat as well."
Just as Mike and others were about to leave, the roar of a car was heard, and a shabby Toyota pickup truck came into everyone's sight, with thick smoke billowing and countless clouds of dust rising up.
"alert!"
After Mike said this, he immediately half-crouched and held the carbine in his hand. The speedboat was swaying under the impact of the waves, and it was impossible for ordinary people to aim.
But Mike remained calm. After taking a few deep breaths, he finally pulled the trigger.
A few subtle gunshots were heard, and the tires of the pickup truck speeding on the beach immediately exploded!
The entire car lost control, rushed into the sea, and hit an exposed reef nearby.
Seeing this, Ayang couldn't help but give Mike a thumbs up and said, "Great shooting skills!"
Only professionals like them can understand how difficult it is to accurately hit a moving target on a speedboat that is constantly swaying.
What's more, it took Mike less than twenty seconds from raising the gun to firing.
He is worthy of being a soldier from the Navy SEALs. His marksmanship alone is strong enough!
Soon, a yellow man emerged from the water and swam towards the shore.
Mike and others had been waiting on the shore for a long time.
The moment he climbed onto the beach, a strangely shaped pistol was pointed at his head.
"Don't move, or your head will explode!"
Ayang, who was standing by, looked at the strange-looking pistol in Mike's hand, which looked like a pistol from a science fiction movie, and asked curiously, "What kind of pistol is this? How come I've never seen it on the market?"
The shape of this pistol is very peculiar, with five barrels, just like a Gatling gun. The gun body is a cold metallic color, and the handle is inlaid with two black metal guards.
"Sorry, I signed a confidentiality agreement with the seal, so I can't tell you too much."
"I can only tell you that this is a special pistol produced by HK. It can be fired silently underwater and is specially equipped for frogman units of various countries."
"There are probably less than 200 of these pistols in the entire United States. The CIA has some, but most of them are in the hands of our Navy SEALs."
What Mike said was not an exaggeration at all. The specific model and data of this gun are still top secret in Germany and the relevant countries where it is equipped.
Among them, special forces of countries such as the United States, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, and Israel are all equipped with this pistol.
The model of this pistol is called HKP-11 underwater silent pistol. The whole gun is mm long, mm high, 36 mm wide, the barrel is mm long, the rifling direction is to the right, the rifling pitch is mm, and when fully loaded with bullets, the total weight reaches kg. It fires x mm ammunition.
This pistol is equipped with a total of 5 barrels, all of which are sealed and installed on the handle bracket through a foldable conversion device next to the bolt. The electrical energy required to fire the bullet is provided by two sets of batteries installed in the middle of the handle.
The main feature of the P-11 underwater silent pistol is that it uses an electronic system to fire bullets through electric control. It can be used both underwater and on the ground. The effective range underwater is 15 meters and above water can reach 50 meters. It is particularly suitable for secret infiltration operations from underwater to the coast.
The P-11 pistol has a very high shooting effect within a distance of 30 meters, which is in no way inferior to the MP5 also produced by HK.
Although the P-11 pistol is powerful and has a futuristic feel, it is not without its shortcomings.
First of all, the technical support is relatively complicated, and the barrel reloading work can only be performed by professionals at HK company, which is not convenient to use.
Secondly, since it is mainly used underwater and the salt content in seawater is high, although the various parts of the pistol are strictly sealed, the electronic contacts at the seals are very easy to oxidize.
In addition, the special maintenance equipment used to regularly check the circuit condition of the pistol's electronic components is relatively bulky, equivalent to more than half the size of the pistol itself, and must be installed on the barrel of the gun, which is more troublesome to operate.
Most importantly, radioactive materials were used in the making of this pistol.
Because the underwater ballistic characteristics are different from those in the air, the requirements for the bullet's specific gravity are higher. Therefore, depleted uranium is used in the core of the arrow-shaped bullet specially used for this pistol to increase the bullet's specific gravity and ensure shooting effect.
If used for a long time, it will definitely be harmful to the human body.
Knowing this well, Mike has not used this gun since retiring from the Navy SEALs for health and practical reasons.
There is no bullet in the barrel now.
Moreover, with Mike's own financial resources, he has no way to maintain this gun.
The reason he still carried the pistol with him was just as a commemoration.
Ayang nodded, gaining a new understanding of the extraordinary powers of the Navy SEALs.
Moreover, through Mike's description, he could roughly know that the other party's status was probably not too low when he served in the Navy SEALs.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to know many things so clearly.
However, Ayang thought again, even if Mike was a Navy SEAL and was very powerful, wasn't he still a team leader in Hutchison Security?
This made Ayang feel extreme admiration for his boss, Lin Zehao, whom he had never met before.
Where does my boss come from to start from scratch in his twenties and gain the status and power he has today?
"Don't shoot, don't shoot, I mean no harm..."
The man raised his hands decisively and knelt on the beach without any intention of resisting.
"I just saw you guys firing your naval guns, so I followed you all the way here."
"Believe me, I have absolutely no intention of taking action, and I don't have any weapons on me."
Mike raised an eyebrow and said, "Oh? So what are you going to do?"
The man lowered his head and said, "My name is Benny, I'm also a pirate, and I want to cooperate with you."
"I promise, I can do better than Bob!"
As a Caribbean person, becoming a pirate seems to be the only option for most people.
The Caribbean Sea is a world-famous sea area, part of the Atlantic Ocean, and was named after the original inhabitants of the area, who were the Caribbean Indians.
It lies between the South American continent, the Isthmus of Central America, and the Greater and Lesser Antilles.
It is about 2,800 kilometers long from east to west and about 1,400 kilometers wide from north to south. It covers an area of million square kilometers and has an average depth of 2,491 meters. It is one of the deepest inland seas in the world.
In addition, the Caribbean Sea is also a must-pass place for the Atlantic to Pacific route through the Panama Canal, and it is also the center of many routes between South America and North America. Therefore, it has important strategic and shipping significance.
There are more than a thousand islands of all sizes near this sea area, which is a natural pirate route.
Therefore, most of the locals are engaged in the pirate industry. No matter whether they are men, women, young or old, as long as they can lift an AK-47, they are considered a pirate.
"cooperate?"
"What qualifications do you have to discuss cooperation with us?"
Mike put down the gun in his hand, and a smile appeared on his face under the mask.
"I know that you have warships and are a private enterprise. With such power, you will definitely be a hegemon in the waters near the Caribbean as long as you don't provoke a few specific countries."
"Compared to you, I am indeed very insignificant, but I am a local, and my father is the chief of the local clan. As long as I have enough capital, I can easily raise a team..."
"As long as you invest in me, I will definitely bring you rich returns, believe me!"
Benny is eloquent and obviously well educated. This alone makes him far superior to the pirates.
Moreover, he is well aware of the operating rules of this sea area and the importance of having support from powerful forces.
