Avran acted quickly. Two days later, a Canadian cargo ship sailed into the Isabela Port Terminal. On board the ship were not only ten Marine Corps officers and soldiers escorting the arms and supplies, but also two American geological and mineral experts; The purpose of their trip was to supervise the destruction of the mine to prevent further accidents.
Expert Luo Er didn't have time to receive the expert, so he sent a team of soldiers. After receiving the expert, they went directly to Malawi by helicopter; Wang Lin also led the logistics officers and soldiers to inspect the weapons and equipment on the freighter.
Sure enough, Wang Lin's reward made Luo Er feel cold to the bottom as expected. Three thousand new m1 automatic rifles were true, but the ammunition base was only fifty rounds each, which was not even enough for training; another infantry regiment's The equipment in active service is actually that of the US Coast Guard. Although it is also in active service, there are not even a few heavy machine guns in sight, let alone artillery.
Standing on the dedicated dock, Luo Er looked coldly at the Canadian freighter and Wang Lin who looked depressed, "Okay, how good do you expect something to be for free? Let's put it into the warehouse first. Do we need it?" Yes, you can still make money by selling it to the militiamen,"
In fact, if he hadn¡¯t had the confidence in his heart, he would probably be no better than Wang Lin now, and he would probably be jumping around and yelling.
The purpose of his appearance was the large 5,000-ton bulk cargo ship flying the Panamanian flag on the nearby commercial dock in the southeast corner of the dock area that has been under martial law by the special forces.
A group of military policemen with red armbands were boarding the freighter from Singapore and starting to inspect it. However, standing next to the Swedish captain on the deck was someone other than Qingtian.
Qingtian is wearing a pure white uniform. As he raised his head and looked far away, he could clearly feel Commander Luo's gaze coming towards him. A rare smile appeared on his face under his big-brimmed hat. He calmly pointed toward the shore and made a military salute with his right hands. Qingtian now wears a serious sailor's uniform except for the close-fitting dog tag around his neck.
Luo Er, who was more than a hundred meters away, raised the corners of his mouth slightly and then felt relieved.
Arrive in Qingtian by boat in the early morning. Although the telegraph silence has been maintained on the road. But Luo Er was waiting with his fingers crossed, and he arrived at the dock around this time.
When the gendarmerie captain led his men onto the deck of the freighter, he glanced at Qingtian's face with a cold eye. Couldn't help being slightly stunned. The military boots under his feet paused for a moment. Then he strode towards the cab; seeing the high-waisted military boots on the guy's feet, Qingtian breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves relaxed.
Basilan Island in early summer. Like Mindanao, it was already unbearably humid. If the typhoon hadn't just passed through, the indigenous laborers waiting on the dock would still feel uncomfortable going barefoot.
Only officers and soldiers of the Security Department who have enjoyed burning knives can wear cowhide military boots without changing their expressions in such a hot and humid place. They can even avoid the mosquitoes and blowflies that are everywhere in the world.
This kind of standard combat boots made of all-leather material has poor ventilation, poor drainage performance, and is heavy. If ordinary people wear it, they can last for 24 hours on a sunny day. Basically, they can join the three major brands immediately. A brigade combat unit.
Within the Free Port, secretly, the officers and soldiers of the Security Department have a vague sense of recognition for the strange companions who can wear military boots. As for those colleagues of the Security Department who have never used burning knives, they will always remain vigilant.
Whether someone is truly one of us can be seen at a glance from his feet. It is simple and clear. Luo Er has never realized this.
Looking at the freighter that obviously had a deep draft, Luo Erzhao summoned Wang Lin, whispered a few instructions, jumped into the jeep, and roared away.
"Oh, yes, no wonder I don't like these junk." Shaking the list in his hand, Wang Lin held the carbine on his back and shouted to his men to prepare for unloading; according to the regulations of the Security Department, all belongings Officers and soldiers of the Security Department must carry firearms and ammunition with them when performing tasks, and officers and soldiers of the logistics department are no exception.
While the cranes were busy on the dock, lifting standard boxes one by one from the freighter, on the military dock further away, two coast speedboats flying the Chinese flag crossed the blue sea and hurriedly docked at the dock. .
A patrol team led by Dali finished patrolling thirty nautical miles of sea area and were ready to return to port to rest; with him was Zhao Shuisheng, who had become a qualified captain.
Since leaving Luo Er's side, Dali has not stayed at the Security Department Headquarters. Although the treatment there is better, he is still in Sun Xiaohu's Infantry Brigade. After hanging around for a month, he finally made up his mind to join the HNA Brigade and became a Lei A squad leader under Biao's rule.
In the infantry brigade, what Dali saw was the unabashed admiration of Luo Er by officers at all levels. He also knew the extent of Luo Er's concern for the army team. Seeing that he could not get a clue, he gave up on mastering Luo Er.The idea of ??a team.
The aviation brigade could not use its own specialties. After learning the aircraft, it could only fly a helicopter. That thing made him dizzy. Now that it is better, the fast coastal armed craft is exactly what he wants.
The Hainan Brigade, which was newly formed by local people, did not pay Luo Er's attention. The naval officers and soldiers who enjoyed burning knives were only the brigade officers. Therefore, Dali simply took advantage of Luo Er's loophole. With the close cooperation of Zhao Shuisheng, Controlled two speedboats.
Gathering his officers and soldiers, eating and drinking a few meals, and adding unparalleled fists, he was able to live freely for a long time with his strength. As long as he could complete the patrol mission on time, the brigade headquarters would turn a blind eye to him.
Although his current situation is a bit different from his inner expectations, Dali is very confident that it won't take much time to control more low-level officers and soldiers; a single spark can start a prairie fire, and he is convinced that he will succeed in the end.
Without contradicting Luo Er, the idea of ??getting his own armed force and force is very profound; if Luo Er knew his hidden evil thoughts, he wouldn't know whether to laugh or be angry.
The shadow that burning knives left in Dali's mind was actually expelled bit by bit by him. The spiritual pillar of human beings can sometimes be strangely powerful.
After getting ashore, he signed and handed over to the officer on duty at the dock. Dali took Zhao Shuisheng and a group of sailors and walked toward the military camp while laughing.
"Ka, ka, ka" A coast patrol team, with rifles on their shoulders, walked slowly past Dali with neat steps. The printed chest strip with yellow characters on a black background was worn on the upper edge of the left pocket of BDU, showing that they He is a military police officer directly under the Military Police Brigade of the Ministry of Security, headed by a Tagalog officer. Colored collar badge on black background. It turned out to be a captain officer.
Colored badges, red troop armbands, jungle combat uniform with twill pockets and hidden buttons, M1936 style OD No. 7 green belt. Belted with a Colt automatic pistol. Plus an assault rifle. It makes the originally dark-skinned Tagalog people look majestic.
The soldiers following him also wore the same jungle combat uniforms. Standard combat boots, m1956 type personal carrying equipment, a quarter kettle, m1937 bar ammunition bag, and the same color Browning automatic rifle, even if you look at it hard, your eyes will get hot.
Of course, the heat was unbearable. He lowered his head and looked at the light canvas shoes on his feet, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.
But what made him even more annoyed was that Luo Er, a brainless guy, almost copied the US military's set. Not only were the weapons and equipment of the troops the same, but the uniforms and equipment were also exactly the same, and he didn't even bother to change the color.
Of course, the subsidy is a bit high. He Dali, who enjoys the welfare meals every day, secretly curses him as a prodigal.
At this time, no matter how hard he tried, even the passenger and cargo ships of various flags on the busy commercial dock in the distance, and a group of merchants who had just arrived from the passenger ship were also talking in surprise about the group of patrolling military police in front of them. The gendarmerie originally only patrolled the urban area and performed inspections in the dock area, which was only a recent event.
In the crowd, two middle-aged men with obviously Asian faces were also secretly observing the police around them, as well as the armed military police passing in front of them. These powerful departments, all dressed in American clothes, made their faces particularly ugly.
"Lao Jin, have we arrived somewhere? It looks like we are on American territory," the square-faced middle-aged man asked in a low voice, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Song Biao, we have arrived, but the situation doesn't look good," the tall Lao Jin, wearing a blue suit on his arm, shook his head solemnly, "Comrade Du Dali's intelligence did not mention the armed forces here. It turns out to be all American style. It seems that Luo Benchu ??has a big problem."
"It's not just a big problem, it's become a thug of the Americans. The currency is US dollars," Song Biao muttered angrily as he followed Lao Jin after passing the checkpoint. They had to pay one yuan each. A cleaning fee is required before leaving the dock area.
Not far behind the two of them, there were three young men with strong and stocky bodies. Zhang Dahu, Yang Yasheng, and Li Tiehan were all disciples of the old Guo family, the royal chef in the capital. Each was carrying his own wicker box. Walking quietly among the crowd.
In a Chinese restaurant in the urban area, five guests from far away came today. The Chinese are making a living in other countries, either by shaving their heads or in restaurants. No, three famous teachers and apprentices came to the door, which made the restaurant owner Zhao Tingzhu extremely happy.
Hunan cuisine, Huainan cuisine, Shandong cuisine, as long as these three major cuisines come to the door, as soon as the news spreads, those high-ranking officers in the security department will become guests. As time goes by, they will not get any news, even if it is Even the slightest disturbance could not escape Zhao Daer's nose.
Late night, on the commercial dock, a group of armed military police with live ammunition suddenly appeared, surrounding the silent dock. Military Dodge trucks with tarpaulins in the back drove onto the dock like a stream.
After the first truck stopped, Lao Cui jumped out first. The tarpaulin in the back compartment was swaying. Da Hui, with his few wild dogs, inadvertently slipped into the shadows; for tonight's arms transfer, Luo Er can be regarded as spending his capital.
As for how many nameless corpses will appear in a remote corner outside the pier tomorrow, it depends on Da Hui¡¯s ability to kill all the informants.
Qingtian, who was still dressed as the second officer, was standing on the dock at this time, pointing to the cargo ship that had begun to unload, and handed a list to Wang Lin, "The goods are all on the ship, you are rich this time,"
"Haha, what kind of money did you get? It's just a handover," Wang Lin said humbly. He took out a delicate small flashlight and shone the light on the list. His eyes quickly scanned it, and his face was already smiling. .
This year, the U.S. military is equipped with six thousand 7.62 mm caliber M14 automatic rifles with 10 million rounds of ammunition, fifty M30-type 60 mortars, 81-type mortars, and 120-type mortars, each with complete ammunition, including high-explosive bombs and illumination bombs. , white phosphorus bombs, smoke screen bombs, oh my, what a sincere brother. Coupled with hundreds of light and heavy machine guns and 20,000 fragmentation grenades, Wang Lin couldn't close his mouth with laughter.
Although there are not many types of weapons, the huge number dazzled Wang Lin's always picky eyes. The 7.62 mm caliber rifle ammunition is the same caliber as the AK rifle. How could he not smile crookedly.
As for where Qingtian got these genuine arms and whether there are any hidden dangers in the future, that is not a question for him as a logistics cadre to think about. If the sky falls, Commander Luo will be the one to hold it up. What he cares about is whether the arsenal is full. Just supplies.
Two hours later, Qingtian left the Security Department¡¯s base camp by car, and placed in a suitcase next to his knees were a full sixty burning knives and ten black-headed knives. Naturally, in his pocket, he carried a recent photo of Luo Er as an officer.
The next day, after loading the timber on the order, the Panamanian freighter slowly left the dock and ran along the waterway to Koror. After unloading in Palau, it was fully loaded with phosphorite and returned to Singapore. (To be continued)
