Power and Wealth - 896. Chapter 898【Pirates are coming!
One day passed.
Two days passed.
That morning, Dong Xuebin woke up, got out of bed and smoked a cigarette, then stepped on his shoes and walked to the deck. He looked around. This is still a deep sea area. The mainland has long been invisible, except for the sea. The sea is obviously far from the destination. Taking a boat is inferior to the speed of a train and even less to the speed of an airplane. Dong Xuebin had been prepared for this a long time ago and knew that he could not rush.
“Buddy.” Dong Xuebin stopped one of the crew members.
The crew member put down what he was holding and looked back at him, “What’s the matter?”
“Ask something.” Dong Xuebin said: “How far is it from the area of piracy?”
The crew’s face was a little weird, “A ship was robbed a few days ago, so the captain told us to go around a little bit, but now this area should also be considered a pirate activity area.” He pointed his finger to the west, “There are pirates over there. We don’t even have a political axe. We should be far away from the pirates, but we don’t know if we will encounter them. Let’s ask for your blessings.”
Dong Xuebin was taken aback, “Is it here?”
The crew member said: “It’s early in the morning, haven’t you seen everyone’s expressions?”
Dong Xuebin glanced around, and sure enough, the crew on several decks looked on guard, and said, “Do you know how many pirates are in this gang? Also assign factions?”
The crew said: “How many people are not clear, but there must be more than one leader. I heard that there are many, and their competition is not small.”
“Which wave of pirates robbed the ship the other day?”
“I don’t know this. Actually, I haven’t seen them either. If we see it, we probably won’t be able to run. The pirate boats are much faster than us.”
“That’s it, thank you.”
The crew said: “It’s not that I said you, you really shouldn’t come this trip.”
Dong Xuebin nodded, “Thank you for reminding.”
The crew wanted to say a few more words, but seeing Dong Xuebin’s expression, he still said nothing.
These days, all the crew members have basically seen Dong Xuebin, and they also know that Dong Xuebin is here for sightseeing, as if to experience life. Everyone shook their heads a little after hearing this. Although they admire Dong Xuebin’s courage, he still thinks of him. Some people do not know that the sky is thicker, there are so many ships and so many routes. The chance of meeting pirates is really not too great, but it is not absolute. No one thought that someone like Dong Xuebin would actually come to travel? Even the sailors of them, if they hadn’t had a poor family background, they probably would have stopped doing it long ago. If they had a rich life, who would have given up their lives to run this route?
In private, many crew members also talked about Dong Xuebin.
“This young man is really not afraid of death.”
“I think he is spoiled, don’t you know anything?”
“But it’s not bad that I haven’t been seasick after sailing for so many days.”
“Look at his small body, I don’t know how long he can last. What kind of travel do you travel at this time?”
“Yeah, in case of encountering a pirate, I think his legs will be frightened.”
“Bah, baah! What are you talking about?”
“Yes, it’s all smooth sailing, surely all smooth sailing!”
Dong Xuebin vaguely heard the comments of the surrounding sailors, but he turned a deaf ear to his ears. He stared at the pirate base in the distance without saying a word for a long time, and his eyes were contemplative. The warship of the Republic was estimated to have set sail the day after he left, and he did not know that he had not reached this sea area. Now Qianqian must still be in the hands of the pirates. Dong Xuebin was thinking about how to meet his daughter and go directly to the pirate base. ? But there is the sea in front of you, I am afraid it is impossible, or when you get to land, use a stop to avoid the crowd and land? Find those pirates again?
After thinking about it, Dong Xuebin still felt that the latter had a greater chance of success, so he probably had an idea in his heart, and went through the plan repeatedly.
Five minutes…ten minutes…half an hour…suddenly, someone on the deck yelled.
“Hey, the front is…”
“There is a boat ahead!”
“Captain! Captain!”
Dong Xuebin also saw that there was indeed a white object directly in front of him.
Niu Dazhao strode onto the deck and looked into the distance with a telescope. Suddenly, Niu Dazhao’s expression changed drastically, “Quick turn! It’s a pirate!”
“what?”
“pirate?”
The crew is in chaos!
Niu Dazhao said loudly: “These bastards! Why are they coming from such a distant sea area? Still standing there motionless? What is this for? Who are you waiting for?”
Generally, pirates are responsible for the hijacking of ships. They are all speedboats, which are the lifeboats of some staff members who stayed around when they go to the park to row. They are similar to that. They are extremely fast and easy to move. When the speedboat was several times the size of the ship, the crew hadn’t taken it seriously yet. Who thought it was a pirate, and the pirate ship was still waiting there quietly? This is clearly beyond their cognition!
Niu Dazhao shouted: “Quick! Turn around!”
Everyone looked anxious and got busy!
“Not good!” Suddenly, Niu Dazhao holding the binoculars tightly said: “They are here! Coming to our side! There are several speedboats next to them!”
Speedboat?
And speedboat?
Everyone turned pale and panicked.
In the face of death, the crew tried their best.
But the speed of their cargo ships was of course not as fast as the other’s speedboats, and then everyone saw the pirates getting closer and closer!
That’s it!
Can’t hide it!
Niu Dazhao also saw that the situation was gone, and angrily threw the telescope on the deck, “This bastard! Brothers! It’s dead anyway! Fight with them!”
However, no one responded to him.
Fight? Pirates have guns, how do you fight them?
If they were caught with nothing, the country would still be able to ransom them with a ransom, and there was still a glimmer of life, but if you resist, your life will definitely not be saved!
The crew all looked sad and angry.
Niu Dazhao also said something angry. Seeing everyone like this, he sighed heavily and said nothing more.
Only Dong Xuebin looked calmly at the white spots not far away, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he stared at them without blinking. Where did the pirate ship always stop? How many speedboats and a main ship were also dispatched? why is that? Know they will take this route? This is obviously impossible. Could it be that these pirates are the same group who hijacked Qianqian? Have an appointment with the warships of the Republic to trade here? They parked the ship there early. Is this waiting for the Republic’s warship to come? It is possible!
Dong Xuebin couldn’t help but smile coldly!
I am not looking for you, but you are looking for me?
Good job! Save a lot of effort buddy! !
