Chapter 324 Preparing to join the gang
"This is Celtic Wanderer, please help, we are being tracked by unknown pirates, please help, please help Falk."
Clint Barton, the main person in charge of the Celtic Rover, and several people on board who were employed by S.H.I.E.L.D.
He did something big, and this big thing was all done by trusting Fury:
He stole cargo from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s research ship.
The cargo must be sealed in a special container, and the temperature and pressure must be kept constant. This means that power must be kept on at all times, and the cargo compartment must be stolen together.
In his career as an agent, this kind of mission can be regarded as the top level of difficulty.
It's a pity that the things were transported away, but the tail was still left behind——
[Fury: Clint, two frigates have left the fleet and are heading towards you, run! 】
This is the last communication between Fury and him!
Two military frigates left the naval base where they were stationed and came towards them!
The Celtic Wanderer was a small cargo ship. After receiving the news, Clint immediately called on his people to drive the ship away, throwing away all unnecessary weight and moving south along the coast at full speed!
This voyage had no satellite support and relied entirely on a traditional compass and the vaguely visible coastline to indicate the route. This feeling almost drove the people on the ship crazy——
Clint shouted into the radio again, then picked up the kettle on the table and shook it.
The kettle was empty, his lips were chapped, and someone caught the clue, and they hurried away without even replenishing their supplies.
"Boss, is there really someone to pick us up?"
In front of the console, the operator asked feebly.
"Yes." Clint didn't hesitate and looked at his watch pretending to be real, "It's almost there."
boom.
The door to the room was opened, the iron door creaked, and a tired agent walked in: "Boss, we're going to run out of gas soon."
Feeling at his lowest point, Clint nodded.
The next second, the radio rang.
【呲——】
[Note, this is the USN Sentinel, calling Celtic Wanderer. 】
[We have been notified by the United Nations peacekeeping forces that you are suspected of stealing important cargo. We have instructed you to slow down and stop the ship immediately. 】
[Please comply with this instruction, stop the ship and slow down, and wait for further instructions. 】
The situation has also reached rock bottom, and they can already receive the warship broadcast.
The atmosphere in the room dropped to freezing point. Clint did not hesitate and picked up his weapons from the table - a carbon fiber composite bow and a quiver containing various high-tech arrows.
"Fuel chamber, full power."
"But."
"Laman, we are only one point away from support."
Clint's tone was unquestionable, and his men patted their faces and quickly returned to their jobs without saying any more nonsense.
Grabbing the radio, he asked as he walked: "How far away is the enemy?"
[The radar shows that we can barely keep the distance at around 60 nautical miles, but the fuel is almost running out! 】
The view on the sea is actually quite limited due to the effects of rocking ships, waves, the curvature of the earth, and weather.
Otherwise, military ships would not need to be equipped with various radars.
In order to make up for this problem, modern ships are equipped with radar. The radar used by this civilian freighter is relatively ordinary, and the accurate detection range is about 80 nautical miles.
In the communication channel, the Bad Army's warning sounded again. Clint was very nervous, but the next moment, new news came from the crew!
【Boss! There is a ship approaching ahead! 】
Clint was delighted!
When heading towards each other, the ship quickly revealed its true appearance:
Several small boats dozens of meters long!
The boat also released a speedboat, which is simply a "low-profile aircraft carrier".
It's a fucking pirate!
Clint was stunned for a moment, and immediately grabbed the radio and shouted: "Speed up! Rush over!"
In the control room, the operator pushed the control lever, and the diesel engine roared immediately, and the vortex at the tail suddenly deepened!
The pirate captain, who has been sailing on the ocean all year round, instantly realized that something was wrong——
They found themselves, but didn't slow down at all!
There are two scenes of pirate robbery: one is that the pirates shoot to signal payment, and then the cargo ship pays to ensure safety.
The other is that the guard on the ship fired a signal to get out, and then the pirates got out.
But this time it was different, the ship accelerated directly!
"He's a fool!" the pirate captain on the mother ship yelled, "Damn it, shoot the deck!"
The pirates who boarded the speedboat immediately raised their AK47s and fired, and the bullets hit the ship with a clanging sound——
All Clint could hear was the muttering of curses from the black pirates.
He hid behind the edge of the boat: "I'm so sad for you, you're so unlucky, guys."
On the ocean, ships traveling opposite each other are very fast!
The pirates were not only facing the cargo ship, but also the two frigates chasing the cargo ship!
The speedboat quickly turned around and prepared to catch up with the cargo ship, but the pirates who were looking in all directions immediately discovered that the ups and downs of the waves seemed to cover up the ships behind——
That's a ship.
warship!
"Stop fighting, stop fucking fighting!!!" This young man grabbed the shooter and the steering wheel driver on the same boat. One of the latter two was controlling the recoil, and the other was controlling the steering wheel. They both gave him two Elbow.
boom!
"Holy shit!" He covered his nose and climbed up from the boat. He heard someone shouting that someone had been shot.
"It's a bullet. If you don't run away, you will be beaten into a sieve!"
He pulled his companion's hair and stood up, turning his head in the direction of the warship!
The waves undulated, and a relatively tall frigate loomed, and the turret erupted with huge fire and noise!
boom!
A panicked voice instantly sounded on the radio: "Berry Countryman's warship!"
A 76mm high-explosive bomb instantly hit the pirate's mother ship and passed through the bow!
boom!
The flaming waves exploded on the bow of the ship. The whole ship spun out of control and capsized. The burning pirates screamed and fell off the deck.
In the captain's cabin, the pirate captain shouted sternly on the wide area communication channel: "The Berry Country guy is coming!"
boom!
The second shell hit the captain's cabin directly!
On the warship, the captain's expression remained unchanged.
Shooting cannons is great, and it’s even more fun if you hit it accurately, but what’s there to be proud of about shooting pirates?
Secondly, this kind of action may also cause some international disputes. He actually resisted being sent to participate in this event.
But the duty of a soldier is to obey orders.
"Yeah!" The recruit at the console waved his fist, extremely excited.
The captain glanced at the unsuited recruit and looked at the commander of their operation.
"Colonel Stevenson, should we continue to fire? If it's accidental fire."
"Don't worry, the chance of accidental injury is not as high as you think."
Colonel Stevenson, Tony's security director Eric, had a grim expression, and was secretly surprised that this fire control system was so powerful.
Two hits.
He was holding a tablet in his hand, which contained the artificial intelligence supporting this operation.
[Iron Soldier 001: The target is expected to run out of fuel in 30 minutes. It is recommended to board the ship to control the cargo to ensure the integrity of the cargo and to test the combat performance of the Iron Soldier. 】
"But you are right, accidental damage outweighs the losses." He nodded towards the captain and ordered, "Dispel the pirates and we are going to release steel soldiers."
The captain said to the operator: "Use water cannon to expel."
Before the captain finished speaking, Eric interrupted: "Use the cannon."
call!
At this moment, two rockets flew quickly across the sea until they hit the warship!
boom!
The fire overflowed, and everyone felt slightly trembling——
But to be honest, this is more like a psychological effect, because the ship usually shakes a lot more at sea.
Only one rocket hit, and the other was drilled into the sea during flight.
The fire dissipated and the warship was unscathed.
The pirates who "accidentally" lurked beside the warship looked at this behemoth with despair -
The machine gun quickly turned its gun head, as if it was already pointed at them.
The gunshots were dense and heavy, and splashes of water and blood were mixed together. Soon the seawater was dyed with black oil and red blood.
The captain looked at the operator controlling the cannon with a livid face: "You should obey my orders!"
The operator nodded, but looked at Eric.
The latter patted the captain on the shoulder: "Focus on the mission, captain."
"The Berry Country guy is here!"
The screams echoed in the frequency band, and the faces of the people on the Wakanda patrol boat changed: They did not expect that the Berry people would actually send warships to pursue the ship!
This will completely change things——
Now the area they belong to is barely considered high seas, but Wakanda's patrol ship opened fire on the frigate.
Let’s not talk about whether we can win or not, this is an international incident!
Fortunately, at this time, the intermittent communication was restored again, and Frank regained the opportunity to communicate with Lille through the African network.
[Frank: Boss, the target is the Berry Kingdom warship. The pirates rushed up and destroyed one of the ships. What should we do? 】
[Lille: I’ll send you some software, and then I’ll tell you how to do it. 】
[Lille: Prepare to board the ship by speedboat. 】
[Frank: Transport the goods away? 】
[Lille: I'm talking about an ancient tactic - you're boarding the ship of the bad guys. 】
[Lille: Get ready to join the gang. 】
Gang hopping? Jumping onto a warship like pirates did in the last century? !
Frank suddenly grabbed his weapon and looked at the people waiting for instructions. The Wakanda operator looked embarrassed and was also waiting for instructions.
He thought for a while and said forcefully: "What's wrong with Mr. Berry?"
Everyone almost blurted out: You are also a Berry Countryman!
Frank lowered his head and walked out of the room. The exoskeleton on his body was adjusted to combat readiness mode, making a mechanical sound.
"The ship is approaching the source of the signal. Others follow me."
"Get ready to join the gang."
