Chapter 677 The Gorgeous Transformation of the Pirate Head

The colorful flags of Boyankini military port fluttered in the early morning.

When the first ray of sunshine reached the port, there was a burst of applause somewhere in the dock.

Brigadier General Gedi, the commander of the Navy, dressed in a straight general's uniform, was surrounded by a group of naval officers on the high platform temporarily built on the dock.

500 naval officers and soldiers stood neatly under the high platform, and everyone stared at the officers above the high platform with a fiery gaze.

Today is a very important day for the Somali Navy. The second batch of 'Swordfish' large missile boats purchased from Ukraine was officially put into active service yesterday. This moment is an important moment for the appointment of commanders of S03 and S04.

Brigadier General Gedi looked at the four large missile boats moored in the port with a look of pride on his face. Somalia also has a navy!

Then, Brigadier General Gedi looked solemn, took a document from the adjutant next to him, and read it aloud in front of everyone: "General Command Order: Appointment of Wurd? Ali? Major Ibrahim is the commander of the S03 missile boat..., appointing Ahmed? Major Kadaf is the acting commander of the S04 missile boat..."

With the appointment of personnel, the quiet dock became noisy. For Urd? Ali? Many officers and soldiers were not surprised by Ibrahim's appointment. Because this person is a talent who joined the navy after the establishment of the Somali navy, he once went to Ukraine with Commander Geddy to receive the first batch of 'swordfish' missile boats and received short-term training from the Ukrainian navy. His ability to command a fleet may be far inferior, but it is still enough to command a missile boat to patrol the sea.

And the appointment of the commander of the S04 missile boat was beyond everyone's expectation. Ahmed?? Who is Kadav? Who doesn't know that it is a pirate leader. Some time ago, the pirate leader was captured by the navy on the spot while fighting with a fishing boat, and was later detained in the port of Kiyangoni. It was not until Deputy Commander Li came to inspect the work that he ordered them to be released and asked Geddy to select some of the qualified pirates to join the navy.

Let a group of pirates join the navy, and the navy officers and soldiers are easy to accept. Because many of the naval officers and soldiers are fishermen, after a period of military training, they were sent to Ukraine for a three-month training before they became an official naval soldier. Most of the pirates in Somalia are also fishermen. They used to be each other and didn't look down on each other. And because the navy is newly built, there is no faction mountain in it. The phenomenon of crowding out outsiders has not happened for the time being.

But many people are dissatisfied with having a pirate leader as the commander of a missile boat. Although Kadav is the acting commander, everyone knows that serving as the acting commander at this time is only temporary and will become a regular sooner or later. Didn't you see that the naval commander was also an agent at the beginning?

If the Somali navy has a large number of ships, no one will fight for it. But the Somali navy currently has only four missile boats, and a pirate leader has just joined and accounted for a quarter. How do other eager officers and soldiers feel about this?

But no matter what dissatisfaction was in my heart, no one said it to my face. Because everyone knows where this order comes from. The headquarters of the Third Army is a larger military center than the naval headquarters.

"The superior appoints you to an important position by trusting you. I hope you will live up to the expectations of your superiors. Take the time to learn to enrich yourself, strengthen training, give full play to the combat effectiveness of the ship as soon as possible, and defend the sea border of the motherland!"

Commander Gedi said some words of encouragement and knocking before ordering the dissolution.

" Major Kadav, the commander asked you to go." Kadav, who was stunned by this sudden appointment, suddenly heard a man calling his name. With a thrill in his heart, he immediately squeezed out the mixed thoughts in his mind and strode towards the headquarters.

"Here you come, sit down!" In the office, Brigadier General Gerdy said with a kind smile on his face.

Major Kadav was still a little confused and moved to the chair to sit down. As a pirate leader, Kadav was also an idle master. He suddenly joined the army with strict military discipline, which was bitter during this period. But let Kadav choose that he is still willing to be a Somali naval soldier, and he does not want to go back and continue to be a pirate leader.

Because Kadaf is different from other pirates, other pirates joined the pirates for a huge ransom and the enjoyment of supreme power because of the embarrassment or ambition of life. Kadav's main ambition is to defend the sea territory of the motherland.

In Somalia, where there is no navy, if you want to achieve this ideal, you can only engage in the pirate profession. A pirate in the new century with ideals and ambitions!

What Kadav didn't expect was that he became the acting commander of a missile boat. He knew what his ability was. If he commanded a group of pirates who dared to fight and kill to hijack the ship, he promised to do it without knowing what he could do, but it would be difficult to command a warship integrated with more advanced high-tech crystals.

He didn't know that he could serve as the acting commander of the S04 missile boat, which was decided by Li Mo himself. After the last time he saw Kadaf here, Li Mo learned a lot about the behavior of the Kadaf pirate gang through Wang Ning's intelligence department, and knew that the Kadaf pirate gang usually did not have any bad deeds. That is, to hijack cargo ships and ask for ransom, they are all looking for ships from countries that have infringed on the rights and interests of Somalia.

Li Mo is willing to provide such a patriotic pirate leader with a platform to truly legally safeguard Somalia's maritime rights and interests.

In addition, Li Mo did this to give other pirates a typical example. It doesn't matter to be a pirate, but you must be patriotic.

The contrast between the announced outcome of the Abdi pirate gang and the Kadaf pirate gang is believed to be soon introduced into Somali pirate organizations. With this demonstration, the behavior of these pirates will be constrained in the future.

Collusion with foreign forces is the end of being destroyed. Patriotic pirates who protect Somalia's maritime rights and interests can be recruited and become a formal naval soldier. If there are major achievements, it is not impossible to become an officer in one step.

Commander Gedi did not figure this out at first and objected to Li Mo's decision. However, after learning about Li Mo's plan, he immediately expressed his support. The benefits of Kadaf as an acting commander are more than that, because Kadav used to be a pirate and must know a lot about the pirate organizations around Somalia. The current main task of the Somali Navy is to fight against 'illegal pirates'. A naval commander who knows the details of pirates will fight against 'illegal pirates'. Work plays a double effect with half the effort.

"Lajor Kadaf, do you know why your appointment is this time?" Although Gedi supports Li Mo's decision, it does not mean that he is not worried about Kadaf at all. After all, the other party is a pirate, and the habits of bandits have been difficult to change after more than ten years of cultivation. Gedi was still very worried that such a pirate leader suddenly became the commander of the naval warship.

I'm not worried that Kadav will have a different mind, but I'm worried that Kadav will spread banditry to the navy officers and soldiers. Some people call the navy a 'noble', which is not unreasonable at all. If a navy is like a pirate hooligan, not to mention its combat effectiveness, it will always give a bad impression to the outside world, which will damage the image of the Somali navy.

"Report Commander, I don't know!" Kadav immediately stood up and answered loudly.

Geddy frowned slightly and then unfolded. The other party is a pirate leader. If you want to suddenly become a gentleman and aristocrat, you can't do it in a short time. Therefore, Gedi was not angry with Kadav's 'direct and concise' answer.

"It was personally decided by Deputy Commander Li of the General Command to make you the acting commander of the missile boat. Originally, Deputy Commander Li planned to let you serve as the commander directly, but I objected to you as the commander.

Geddy observed Kadaf's expression as he spoke. Finding that the other party did not show any dissatisfaction, he nodded secretly.

Don't say anything else, at least calm down and know when to remember your identity.

"Although the word 'agent' is not much different from the power of the official commander, the 'acting' commander shows that you do not meet the requirements of being a commander in some aspects and need to be investigated for a period of time."

"Commander, please rest assured, I must strictly require myself, follow the discipline of the navy, and work hard to learn naval military skills..." Kadav was not stupid at all. He quickly understood what Commander Gedi meant and immediately stood up and made a loud guarantee.

At this time, you need to express your attitude without hesitation, and what the boss needs is an attitude.

When Kadaf was a pirate leader, he managed the pirates below and occasionally used this trick to beat those thorns and disobedient.

Franklin? Delano? Roosevelt left not only the Roosevelt New Deal and led the United States to victory in World War II. Roosevelt's carrot and stick policy also set an important management tool for the leaders of many organizations in later generations.

After the big stick, it is the carrot. Gedi used the word 'agent' to imply that Kadav's current position was unstable. After knocking on the other party, he changed his words and sweet dates came.

"Yeah, I hope you can continue to work hard and become a qualified commander early and remove the word 'agent'. Although you are a pirate, you still let you hold such an important position, which is to trust you. In the future, you should complete your work well and don't worry about anything else.

Kadav was overjoyed when he heard the words and secretly said that he was finally recognized. Is he Ahmed? Kadav finally completed the gorgeous transformation from a pirate leader to a naval officer.

The drastic change in mood made Kadav's serious appearance suddenly disappear. When he was about to pat his chest, he loudly expressed his loyalty to Deputy Commander-in-Chief Li and Commander-in-Chief Gedi. The bandit spirit of the pirate leader emanated again for a moment, making Commander Gedi shake his head secretly.
