Chapter 836 Stop the ship for inspection

On February 14, on the day of Valentine's Day in the West, the Foreign Affairs Office of the Third OECD announced that, after the proposal of Libya, a member of the Third Economic Organization, and the approval of the Council, the Third Economic and Economic Organization's armed organization 'Third Counter-Terrorism Command' will be further expanded from the current 1,000 to 3,000 people, and the station will also be moved. Bengazi, an important port city in eastern Libya.

When the third rapid anti-force was established, it caused a sensation in the world. This is the first multinational force formed in a non-war state in the world, and it is not a maintenance force of an international organization like the United Nations.

When the third fast anti-force was stationed in Libya, many opposition parties in Libya jumped out and accused Libya's political axe (Gaddafi) of selling sovereignty, because everyone knew that this fast anti-force might be real against terrorists, but it was also used to deal with the armed forces secretly controlled by the opposition in Libya. Really.

In this case, of course, no one wants to have such an armed force around that poses enough threats. When the opposition in Libya was shouting, some Western countries also jumped out and pointed out on the matter, but later the Third Economic Organization and the Libyan political axe did not make too many statements about the matter, which was equivalent to directly ignoring the voices of some people, and the disturbance slowly calmed down.

However, in Libya, many people are stepping up cooperation and action. Libya once again raised the matter to the Third OECD Council, hoping to expand the size and strength of the third rapid counter-force. Originally, everyone still had opinions on the expansion of the fast anti-attack force, but this air crash made Li Mo determined to step up the deployment to prepare for the counterattack against the Western world, and other countries also pushed the plan along the way after receiving Li Mo's promise to provide 1,000 soldiers.

According to the resolution of the Council, this fast counter-force is composed of three regiments and an anti-terrorism brigade. The equipment of the troops will be regularized, not as before, whoever sends troops with their own weapons.

Three regiments, one aircraft regiment, one mountain regiment, and one paratrooper regiment. The replacement cost of the weapons shall be borne by the member states.

In this expansion process, priority will be given to the purchase of arms from member countries. As the only arms company in Somalia, Star Group has naturally become a weapon provider for this fast anti-force. In addition to the Star Rifle and the Lion King infantry fighting vehicle, Li Morian had just figured out and took out the 'sparrow' helicopter gunships at the Abu Dhabi Defense Exhibition, which surprised several other member countries.

When did Somalia even get armed helicopters? And there is no news from the outside world?

After receiving the technical information of the 'sparrow' helicopter, the political axe of several member countries began to feel incredible and suspicious, so several countries sent representatives to visit the Somali Star Group. Because once this helicopter is the same as the paper data, it is also beneficial to the military promotion of these countries themselves.

Li Mo didn't expect that it was originally to strengthen the security of Gaddafi's rule in Libya and reduce the opportunity for the West to peep, but in the end, he found several customers for the Star Group in advance.

...In the office of the Ministry of Defense of Mogadishu, Li Mo.

The Intelligence Minister and the Navy Commander Brigadier General Gedi are here.

"Boss, we have set a target. You see... This is the picture and profile of our target. Wang Ning handed a stack of photos and documents to Li Mo and said solemnly.

On the desk, the photo is basically a pattern, a huge cargo ship, shooting scenes and angles are different, but the number of this cargo ship is the same.

"Is the 'lone wolf' ready?" Li Mo first looked at the photo for a while, then picked up the document and asked.

"I'm ready. In the last 'Light of Peace' exercise in many countries, we left a few people. This time it just played a role, and the 'lone wolf' is also ready." Wang Ning nodded and replied.

Li Mo finally showed a smile on his face. He looked at the two of them and nodded and said, "That's it. You have to make sure that this matter is hidden."

"Yes!"

... On the sea near the mouth of the Red Sea in the west of the Gulf of Aden, a container ship with a displacement of 50,000 tons is slowly heading east. The freighter named 'Jewel' is destined for the port of Kuwait. The cargo ship is loaded with a large number of daily necessities and machinery.

The cargo ship "Jewel" belongs to the "Seafo" freight company, an international shipping company in the United States that can enter the top five, and the owner of the "Sea God" freight company is said to have a deep relationship with the senior management of the United States and the military, that is to say, the boss of this company has a deep background.

The captain of the 'Jewel' is called Jack? Root, known as 'Captain Jack', has the same name as Captain Jack of the Black Pearl in the famous movie Pirates of the Caribbean.

He himself did not have a trace of disgust for his colleagues and subordinates who often use this surname to make fun of Captain Jack. At the age of 50, Captain Jack, who was retired as a major in the U.S. Navy, I also like the pirate king in the movie very much.

The sky is cloudless and it's a good day. Captain Jack walked out of the captain's room and came to the deck outside. Looking at the seabirds flying in the sky and other ships he occasionally met on the route, Captain Jack suddenly relaxed. Every time, as long as he looks at the sea, he is very relaxed. He is a person who naturally likes the sea.

"Guys, we will arrive at the port of Aden in two days. At that time, I will give you a holiday to go ashore for a while, but now you all cheer up. It is said that the Gulf of Aden is not very calm these days..." Captain Jack returned to the cockpit and said to the crew with a pipe in his hand, but the last sentence was so low that the other crew members could not hear it clearly except him.

Captain Jack comes from the navy, and he is a veteran captain of the Nephen Company. He is usually more concerned about current affairs, because it is also a way for them to spend time on the sea. Five days ago, a Chinese passenger plane was shot down by the U.S. Navy in the Indian Ocean, causing a lot of noise in the world. Jack's ship also received an order from the company's headquarters to be careful in the Gulf of Aden and the Arabian Sea, especially when there was no protection of the U.S. ship.

Although Captain Jack did not scoff at the company's orders, he still did not believe that the cargo ship with the American flag would encounter accidents in the earth's oceans. But after running on the ocean for decades, Jack still developed good habits and was cautious. Because everything can happen on the sea, and it is often not on the ground or behind. Be careful and there is no fault.

Entering the Gulf of Aden, there are a lot more ships, not only cargo ships from all over the world, but also naval warships from a certain country. The legendary Somali pirates, who are very rampant, have rarely been heard of their activities.

The 'Jewel' sailed calmly until noon the next day. At this moment, it is located in the middle of the Gulf of Aden, with a northerly route. Because they are going to the port of Aden, Yemen to replenish water and vegetables, and then go directly to the port of Kuwait.

"Captain, there is a situation!" Just as Jack was a little relieved, and even thought about whether to find a girl to satisfy after going ashore, a crew member's nervous voice came from the ship's internal communicator.

Jack grabbed a pair and rushed out of the captain's room and came to the cockpit. As a result, a crew member's binoculars saw two missile boats with Somali flags coming towards the freighter at high speed on the sea six kilometers away from the right side of the 'Jewel' freighter.

"The clear telegrams sent by these two Somali missile boats just now asked us to stop for inspection." The first mate reported to Captain Jack with an uneasiness on his face.

Check the U.S. cargo ship? This is the first time in the Gulf of Aden. The first mate has never encountered such a thing, so he is more nervous.

"Tell them that we are normally on the high seas route, and the Somali navy has no right to inspect us." Captain Jack took the binoculars and ordered without replying.

The first mate answered and asked, "Do we need to report to the headquarters for support from the U.S. Navy?"

He believes that the United States is strong, and Somalia dares not do anything, but at this time, they are facing the Somali navy, and just a few days ago, something unpleasant happened between the two countries. Who knows if these Somalis will be strong?

"No!" Captain Jack waved his hand, but then he said, "Wait, report the situation here to the headquarters. We may be in trouble."

If it hadn't happened a few days ago, Captain Jack also believed that the Somalis did not dare to mess around, or even intercept American cargo ships, but today the Somali navy unexpectedly appeared and asked them to stop the ship for inspection, so Jack was not sure.

Be careful, it's better to be cautious.

Ahmed, commander of the second patrol of the Somali Navy? Kadav stood on the 022 stealth missile boat numbered 023 and listened to the answer from the cargo ship 'Jewel' reported by the sailors with a calm face.

"Finally, we warn them that we suspect that the cargo ship 'Jewel' is loaded with contraband, and let them stop immediately to accept our inspection, otherwise we will use all means to stop it. Give them three minutes to prepare, or they will fire a warning.

At this moment, the two missile boats have clamped the cargo ship 'Jewel' one after the other. The high-power horn on the missile boat in front of them began to shout at the crew on the cargo ship, repeating Commander Kadaf's words three times.

"Captain Jack, what should we do?" The first mate's face was a little flustered. These Somalis didn't buy it at all and had to check it. If they really were checked, they would not say shame, and there was something really something wrong. Because on the ship, there are always some unclean things, which is an unspoken rule for ocean-going cargo ships. It is normal to carry private goods and so on.

"Is there an order from the headquarters? You take people outside to procrastinate and don't let them board the ship. Captain Jack frowned and ordered in a low voice. He still has the arrogance of the U.S. Navy. How can he let the Somalis board the ship for inspection? This used to be something that the U.S. Navy used to do.
