About an hour after deviating from the original course, Gua Wu found that there were ships chasing after him. There were about seven or eight ships, all of which were small and medium-sized ships with low firepower but fast speed. Shi
Jin looked at his progress bar, which had risen to 900, and ordered: "Speed up and distance yourself from them, and shoot them a few times at the right time."
"Understood." Gua Wu received the order and asked the operator to open the rear gun muzzle, facing the chasing ship.
Boom!
As soon as the gun muzzle was facing over, the enemy ship closest to them fired a shot.
"The enemy opened fire directly!" The captain said in a raised voice. Shi Jin
said calmly, "Fight back, keep your distance, don't get into their range!"
Gua Wu kept moving his hands. After a few dull explosions, the ship behind was blocked and slowed down.
The two sides gradually distanced themselves, and the destroyed ship quickly left the enemy's range and was about to sail out of the enemy's radar monitoring range.
"Don't drive too fast, leave them hanging, and let them chase us." Shi Jin ordered, then took out his cell phone and called Gua Yi, asking, "How's the situation over there?"
Gua Yi's voice was as steady as ever, and he replied, "Everything has been arranged." Shi
Jin was relieved, put down his cell phone, loosened the collar of his shirt, and said, "Just follow this rhythm and lead these boats to our reserved place."
"Yes!" Gua Wu responded.
Gua Er poured him a cup of hot water and asked, "Are you afraid of using yourself as bait to set a trap for them? The group just now should be just the vanguard, and their firepower is not too strong. When the big guys come behind, it will become difficult for us." Shi Jin
thanked him, took a sip of the water to slow down his thoughts, glanced at the radar that kept flashing warning signals, and replied, "Of course I am afraid, but I believe in you and I believe that the boat that Lian Jun gave me must be the best and can definitely support us until we meet up with Gua Yi."
"But Gua Yi ran too far." Gua Er looked at the map, made a slight estimate, frowned and said, "At the current speed, we won't be there until tomorrow morning at the earliest, and that's without taking into account the time of exchanging fire with the enemy."
"There's no way. Only there is what I want." Shi Jin answered, took a look at the satellite phone on the table, hesitated for a moment, and still didn't call Lian Jun.
Gua Er noticed his action and asked, "Don't you want to contact Jun Shao?" Shi
Jin raised his hand and pressed his brows, shook his head and replied, "No, he will be worried... I will contact him after everything is settled."
...
Yuan Peng received the message from his subordinates and said to the communication device with four-way communication: "Shi Jin's position has been locked. He is moving towards the nearest islands. He should be preparing to leave the high seas area and go to a crowded place. The firepower of the vanguard is still a little lacking. The destroyed ship was modified. They can't be trapped by themselves."
"Where are the follow-up troops?" Meng Qing asked.
"We are on our way there, but it's a bit difficult to catch up, because the ship is moving too fast," Yuan Peng replied. Qi Yun
said, "I'll have my people go in front of the route to block him."
"I'll dispatch a group of helicopter teams," Meng Qing said.
Lu Shan finally spoke up, saying, "My people are also gathering there, and they will be able to join Yuan Peng's team in about two hours. Do you need weapons and supplies?"
"That's really a big help," Yuan Peng said. Because of everyone's cooperation, he felt that he was in control, and said with satisfaction, "Okay, next we should put the running rats in the cage."
...
Boom boom boom——!
The sea was turbulent and the boat was shaking. Shi Jin held onto the table to steady himself and asked with a frown, "How many reinforcements have arrived?"
"At least a dozen ships. The number of enemies is more than what Lushan reported to us!" Guawu replied. Noticing that the radar began to flash frequently again, he looked over there and his expression changed. "How could a flying object approach? It seems to be very close... The other side has an anti-surveillance device!"
Shi Jin took a look at his progress bar that suddenly soared to 980. He clenched his fists and ordered, "Use firepower to block them. Don't let them surround us. Try to protect the main body of the ship and don't fight with them! The dozen or so ships that followed obviously belonged to different camps. There was no cooperation at all and they were even interfering with each other. We have a chance!"
Guawu: "Yes!"
Bomb, bomb, bomb!
Another round of artillery fire, but it was not so easy to shake off the pursuers again, there were too many enemy ships.
"There are also enemy troops approaching ahead, about seven or eight ships! At the current speed, we will be within the enemy's range in two minutes." Gua Er suddenly spoke, his expression solemn.
Gua Wu also spoke immediately: "The enemy ships behind us have begun to move in groups, preparing to outflank us." Shi Jin hurriedly
looked at the radar, his expression gloomy, and then looked at his progress bar that had risen to 990, gritted his teeth and said: "If this goes on, we will be surrounded by them, and we must not fall into their encirclement! Deviate to the right with all your strength, concentrate firepower on the ships on the lower right, and prevent them from surrounding us. At the same time, pay attention to the sky and do your best to break through!"
Gua Er and Gua Wu didn't even have time to respond, they were busy and nervous.
Boom!
The main body of the ship was hit by a cannonball and began to shake violently. The alarm of hull damage sounded, extremely harsh.
"Where is it damaged?" Shi Jin asked.
The captain, with cold sweat on his forehead, replied: "Only the second-floor cabin was damaged. The main power area is fine. It does not hinder firing and retreat!"
"Very good." Shi Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and took another look at his progress bar that had risen to 995. He took a deep breath and called out in his heart, "Xiao Si!"
"I know, here, here it comes!" Xiao Si was extremely nervous. The moment Shi Jin spoke, he quickly gave Shi Jin various buffs and began to look for the best breakthrough point.
Shi Jin suddenly felt his vision become clear, and his attention became extremely focused. He hurriedly walked to the operator who controlled the direction of the muzzle and asked, "Is this the main muzzle?"
"Uh, yes, yes, Master Shi, you--" Shi
Jin stretched out his hand and pressed the control panel, saying, "Lend it to me."
The operator was a little confused: "Master Shi...?"
Xiao Si suddenly screamed: "E125 direction! That's where the enemy's attack power is weakest. Jinjin, pay attention to the sky! Be careful! The progress bar has risen to 998!"
"Prepare to break out from the direction of E125! Except for the main gun, aim all guns at the sky! Quick!" Shi Jin's expression was tense. He quickly moved his fingers while giving orders, aiming the main gun at the direction of E125. After the other operators aimed all guns at the sky, he quickly read out a few coordinates and ordered in a deep voice, "Aim the guns one by one at the coordinates I reported according to the numbers. Listen to my prompts. Count down three seconds, three, two, one, fire!" At the same time, he pressed the fire button of the main gun.
Boom boom boom——!
Explosions rang overhead, the ship shook wildly, and the alarm rang wildly.
Gua Er only then realized that those iron guys flying in the sky had actually prepared for armed attacks without knowing when, and said with a dark face: "This is definitely a team sent by Meng Qing. Only his flying team can hide so well!"
"Don't worry about those things for now, speed up and break through! Retract the muzzle to the sides and launch a second round of attack! Don't give them a second chance to gather the team to attack us!" Shi Jin quickly ordered.
The captain tried hard not to look at the damage prompts of various areas of the ship, frowned and did as he was told, and then said in surprise: "There is a flying object falling ahead, and we will hit it if we rush over at this speed!"
"Blast it away!" Shi Jin said as he quickly moved the main gun muzzle, accurately positioned it with Xiao Si's reminder, and fired a shot.
The captain tightened his fingers and gritted his teeth to increase the speed of the ship to the highest level. Amid the violent shaking and the roar of artillery fire, he drove the ship, brushing past the enemy's encirclement, and rushed out directly, then rode away in one go!
In the back, Meng Qing's flying team was hit by Shi Jin's unexpected attack and several planes were shot out from the sky, landing right in the middle of the encirclement, and were instead hit by friendly forces.
...
"Damn it! A bunch of garbage!" Yuan Peng couldn't help but slammed the table and cursed, "Dozens of ships can't surround it for an hour, what are they doing!"
Meng Qing's expression was also a little ugly, but he was still calm, and said: "The destroyed ship is just a mobile turret. It is normal that those garbage ships below can't surround it. But now the destroyed ship is seriously damaged and is already at the end of its strength. Just keep chasing it."
Qi Yun was a little confused and said: "According to reason, with this level of firepower attack, no matter how powerful the destroyed ship is, it should be blown to ashes by the fire..."
"I've told you before that Lian Jun loves Shi Jin to death. The ship he gave Shi Jin is definitely the best with the highest defense. Why don't you believe me? Also, it's not unfair that Mie couldn't break through this time. Look at the accuracy of your crew's artillery fire, and then look at Mie's artillery fire! Meng Qing, your group of pilots were directly bombed by your artillery attack, and those subordinates arranged by Yuan Peng only hurt Mie's fur after fighting for a long time. With such a gap, what's the point of playing!" Lu Shan jumped out again to pour cold water on Qi Yun, deliberately belittling Yuan Peng, trying to divert Qi Yun's thoughts.
Yuan Peng really took the bait, and suppressed his anger and scolded: "Lu Shan, don't say frivolous words! We were on the sea, there were so many interfering factors, how could it be so easy to aim!"
"But how come Mie always hits the target? I'm not just joking. I hope you can be more alert. Aren't you afraid of the gap in personnel strength? Mie's every shot hits a hole, and his firepower is not wasted. At least 70% of our firepower is wasted. Think about it yourself!" Lu Shan retorted, her voice lowered, and she had a small outburst, "I have been fighting Mie with Wolf Spider for many years, and Mie "I know best how strong the enemy is. Thankfully, it's not Lian Jun who stayed on the boat today, otherwise we would have already served food to the enemy! From the meeting until now, you all think that I am pouring cold water on whatever I say, but why don't you think about what has enabled Mie Wen to sit on the fishing platform for so many years! How can we win if we can't even face up to the enemy's strength!"
The air was briefly quiet and the atmosphere was a little depressing.
Everyone knew that they were not as good as Lian Jun, but who would be willing to admit this? Lian Jun was just a new and promising offspring, and a cripple who couldn't walk! Who could accept losing to such a person!
"Shi Jin is not dead yet, why are our people quarreling first?" Qi Yun came out to smooth things over, and said slowly, "This time, there was a problem with my people. We failed to successfully merge with your people to form an encirclement, which allowed Shi Jin to escape. It's my mistake, I will try my best to make up for it. Let's chase him first. Old Meng is right, Shi Jin is now at the end of his strength."
Meng Qing also came out to smooth things over, and said with suppressed emotion: "Qi Yun is right, Yuan Peng has made great efforts this time and thank you for the hard work. Lu Shan, you are Yuan Peng's senior, so just say less."
Lu Shan didn't say a word, as if she was angry.
Meng Qing then tried to persuade Yuan Peng. Yuan Peng was a little unhappy, but he couldn't afford to offend any of the three people present, so he held his breath and went down the ladder, suppressed his temper and reflected on himself, then reorganized the team and chased in the direction where Shi Jin fled.
...
Fei Yujing rushed into the captain's room with Li Jiuzheng, frowned and asked: "What happened just now, didn't you--"
The captain's room was a mess, everyone was leaning against the wall, the table, and the instrument panel, each with a look of vain as if they had survived a disaster, the alarm in the room was blaring, and the reminder sound of the ship being damaged was repeated mechanically.
"Xiao Jin." Li Jiuzheng walked over to Shi Jin who was leaning against the table and asked anxiously, "Are you injured? Many people fell in the previous few waves of attacks. You..."
"I'm fine." Shi Jin comforted him and barely came back to his senses from the thrilling breakout. He glanced at his progress bar which had dropped to 700, breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the captain and asked, "Is the hull seriously damaged?"
The captain also came back to his senses, stood up and checked the condition of the hull, and replied, "It's a bit serious... It's not advisable to engage in further fire. The power area has been exposed. If it is hit again, the ship will sink."
Shi Jin frowned and suddenly turned his head to look at Li Jiuzheng and Fei Yujing. After hesitating for a while, he said, "There is a helicopter on the ship. While the enemy hasn't caught up with us yet, why don't I arrange someone to take you to a safe place--"
Li Jiuzheng's expression changed, and he said, "Xiao Jin, are you going to chase me away?"
Fei Yujing also frowned.
Shi Jin explained: "I'm not trying to chase you away, I'm just in case..."
"If you want to go, let's go together." Li Jiuzheng interrupted him, his face expressionless and his tone stubborn.
Seeing him like this, Shi Jin felt a little headache and said, "I'm the deputy leader of Mie, I definitely can't abandon everyone and go alone, but your situation is different from that of the second brother. You were implicated by me in the first place, and I must ensure your safety. Like the previous wave of fierce fire attack, if it happens again, I can't guarantee it..."
"Old Five must not leave, he is a doctor and must stay here just in case." Fei Yujing interrupted him and insisted, "You are all my brothers, you are all here, and I can't leave. And it's not safe to evacuate by helicopter now. Once discovered, there will be only death." Shi
Jin paused, looked at them, and said, "But you also saw that it is very dangerous to follow me. There is still some hope of breaking through by helicopter. I will send an old hand to send you away..."
"We have to follow because it's dangerous." Fei Yujing interrupted him again, his tone leaving no room for rejection.
Li Jiuzheng suddenly reached out and held Shi Jin's hand, saying: "Xiao Jin, it was you who stretched out your hand to me, and I'll never let go once I've grabbed it."
Shi Jin's heart shuddered when he heard this. He looked at Li Jiuzheng's serious and stubborn expression, then glanced at Fei Yujing's frowning face, and a sour feeling suddenly rushed out in his heart. He was caught off guard, and he tilted his head, took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. He stood up and said, "What kind of idol drama about brotherly love is this... Forget it, if you want to follow me, just follow me . If something really happens to you, I won't feel guilty.
" "Saying this itself is a manifestation of a guilty conscience." Fei Yujing exposed him mercilessly. He glanced at the various alarms on the ship and asked, "How are you going to escape? There are still a lot of pursuers." Shi Jin
sorted out his emotions, looked at the time and the distance between here and the ambush location of Guayi, frowned and thought for a while, then ordered, "Captain, find a way to hide the boat and prevent the enemy from monitoring it." Everyone
on the boat was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, they quickly responded with a "yes" and started to operate quickly.
"Gua Er, Gua Wu, take this opportunity to check the injuries on board. Brother Wu, I'll leave it to you to arrange the medical treatment in the infirmary." Shi Jin continued to instruct, and then asked Li Jiuzheng for help.
Li Jiuzheng nodded, leaned over to hug him, and turned to leave the captain's room. Gua Er and Gua Wu nodded to Shi Jin, and followed him.
Shi Jin watched them leave, stood up and clenched his palms, walked to the position of the deputy captain, scanned the alarms everywhere, let out a sigh and said: "Okay, now it's time to hide from the cat, come on, let's see who is more powerful."
...
"The ship is gone, and we can't track its specific location. We can only know its approximate direction." Yuan Peng frowned and said, "They must have shut down most of the functions of the ship and only let the ship maintain the lowest energy consumption to prevent the ship from being captured by radar."
Lu Shan said: "Then they must not be able to run far. We only need to conduct a carpet search within a certain range. We must also pay attention to suspicious flying objects and be careful that Shi Jin escapes by helicopter."
"I have already asked the flying team to pay attention, but I think that Shi Jin will not abandon a ship of his subordinates and escape by himself unless it is absolutely necessary. In short, all parties should pay more attention." Meng Qing continued.
Half an hour later, Yuan Peng received the following news - Mie's ship appeared again!
However, before they could gather the team and chase after the other side, Mie's ship disappeared from the radar range again.
"What is this!" Yuan Peng was a little irritable, and ordered in a deep voice, "Continue searching! Lock the previous position!"
Another half an hour later, Mie's ship was discovered by the search team, and then before the search team could send a message to Yuan Peng, Mie's ship attacked the search team crazily with full firepower without hesitation and without saying a word, and ran away again.
"Keep chasing! Send teams to block the other two directions!" Yuan Peng ordered angrily.
Ten minutes later, Mie's ship was discovered again, and then the search team was attacked again. Mie escaped again and disappeared from the radar. After repeating this several times, at dawn, Yuan Peng finally suppressed his temper and patiently blocked all possible directions for Mie to escape. He let most of the troops ambush on Mie's route, setting up a dilemma for Mie that he could not escape.
"Let's see how you run this time!" Yuan Peng was almost driven crazy by the pursuit of this night.
...
"We are completely surrounded." Shi Jin glanced at the time and sat down on the ground with a bit of exhaustion, "Okay, now it's time to pray."
On the radar, the red dots representing the enemy were surrounding in a circle, rapidly approaching the green dot in the center. Everyone in the captain's room stared at the radar, their clothes on the back were completely soaked by cold sweat.
The alarm sounded through the sky, and Shi Jin's progress bar suddenly soared to 998.5. Amid Xiao Si's screams, the firepower increased, and then the sound of artillery fire rang out.
Boom boom boom——!
...
Lian Jun woke up from his coma, and after a few seconds of confusion, he came back to his senses, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, looked at Uncle Long who was checking the instrument values with his back to the bed, and asked hoarsely: "Uncle Long, what time is it, where is Shi Jin?"
Uncle Long paused and looked back at him.
Lian Jun immediately found that his attitude was wrong, his heart sank, sat up and frowned and asked: "Where is Shi Jin?"
Uncle Long hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Shi Jin...he didn't return to the ship, he is heading towards the LS Islands."
Lian Jun's eyes suddenly widened, and he immediately realized what happened. He pulled out the IV on his hand with a serious face, lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
Uncle Long hurried over to stop him and said, "Master Jun, Shi Jin is safe now. Gua Er will send a message at regular intervals. You don't have to..."
"Uncle Long." Lian Jun interrupted him, barely standing on the bed, looking at him solemnly, and said, "Call Gua Liu over. I'm going to pick up Shi Jin. Wumen has a secret cooperative organization over in the LS Islands. What if Meng Qing...can't go there?"
Uncle Long frowned and looked at him, and finally cursed, and didn't stop him anymore, and turned and left the ward.
...
The sound of gunfire exploded in all directions, the water surface was violently turbulent, and the hull shook wildly. Fire, smoke, and noise filled the air. Everyone in the captain's room looked at the dense red dots on the radar that suddenly stopped and approached, and the large number of green dots that appeared outside the red dots. After a brief moment of shock, they all relaxed and let the shaking of the ship carry them to the ground.
"That guy Guayi is finally here." Guaer wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, glanced through the window at the flames all around, and couldn't help but hit Shi Jin, "Don't lead the team to fight again after this, it's too scary. If Guayi comes over for one second, we'll all be finished." Shi Jin looked
at his progress bar that instantly dropped to 300, listened to the crying of the little death in his head, and hit him back, took a long breath, smiled bitterly and said, "In the end, we were forced to change the ambush location. I originally wanted to go to the waterway over there, but I still lack practical experience... Forget it, this place is close to the waterway, it's not bad."
...
"What did you say? It's an ambush?!" Yuan Peng stood up in disbelief and yelled into the phone, "How could it be an ambush! You didn't even notice that there was a ship approaching behind us--"
Boom--!
The sound of artillery fire rang out, and then the phone was disconnected. Yuan Peng was stunned and put down the phone in disbelief: "This, this..."
In the other three calls, Meng Qing, Qi Yun and Lu Shan also received calls from their subordinates and received the same news as Yuan Peng.
It turned out to be an ambush. When the four ships of their families completely surrounded the ship and prepared to blow it to pieces, there was a sudden fire response from behind them. By the time they realized there was an ambush, they could no longer avoid the attack.
The entire army was wiped out. There were at least thirty ships ambushed there, most of which were underwater auxiliary boats. Those ships should all be equipped with the best anti-surveillance equipment and concealment devices, otherwise their ships would not have been unaware of their approach when the enemy was already within their firing range.
"It's actually an ambush..." Qi Yun was a little stunned and felt his throat was dry. "From how early did it become a trap? Shi Jin was almost surrounded by us several times. Is he using his life as bait to lure us over? He..."
"I told you before that there might be a trap ahead, but you didn't listen." Lu Shan spoke with fatigue and expected irritability, and said, "Now we must minimize casualties and losses. Let's retreat. Fortunately, we are not really fighting this time, so the situation is not too bad."
No one responded. Everyone felt unbelievable... and unwilling to give up.
How is it possible? They were seniors, several big organizations, but they were fooled by a kid who was still in school. How could this be--
"Wait, why here?" Qi Yun suddenly came to his senses and looked at the route map. "Shi Jin spent the whole night playing hide-and-seek with us. He almost got into trouble several times. In the end, he led us here and caught us all... Why here? He--" He stopped talking abruptly, looking at the enlarged route map in front of him, he understood everything in an instant.
"We were fooled by Shi Jin." He spoke solemnly, his face as cold as frost.
"What's wrong?" Yuan Peng was puzzled, not realizing that something was wrong.
Lu Shan and Meng Qing reacted quickly and looked at the place where they exchanged fire, and then their expressions changed - it was actually near the international shipping route between Country R and Country A. This transportation hub is very important, so there is an international convention that no matter how there is a conflict between countries, this shipping route cannot be moved.
But now, a group of violent organizations in China not only exchanged fire nearby, but also destroyed 20 to 30 ships near this shipping route. Once this matter is magnified...
Meng Qing said with a gloomy face: "Shi Jin is handing a knife to Zhang Zhuoyuan. Lu Shan is right. Fortunately, we are not really in battle this time." Otherwise, everyone will be caught by the authorities using this as an excuse.
But even if they don't really fight, under the premise that the fighting among violent organizations in China affects international shipping lanes, Zhang Zhuoyuan has plenty of excuses to suppress the major violent organizations and give them a hard time! At least for half a year, they have to be cautious.
Not only that, the people they sent out this time may also become Shi Jin's bargaining chips.
Lu Shan also thought of this and said a little irritably: "Get ready to bleed a lot, that ridiculous malicious competition clause is still standing... Damn, it's not easy for me to cultivate a few small organizations, I'm afraid I'll lose them all this time."
The atmosphere became dead silent, and everyone deeply realized that they lost to Shi Jin this time, and lost completely.
Qi Yun still couldn't accept this fact, frowning and saying: "How could it be an ambush? How could I not find out Shi Jin's intention... Could all this be planned by Lian Jun? He guessed that we were going to form an alliance, so he pushed Shi Jin to do this to lure us into a trap, and took advantage of our unstable alliance to make excuses and use the official hand to suppress us..."
Meng Qing listened to his words, thinking of Shi Jin's various performances in the past few days, his face trembled, and he clenched his fists.
No, his self-esteem would not allow him to be defeated by a newcomer like this, absolutely not!
