Considering that supporting another native general would cause them to clash with the Monster Industries, they would be under diplomatic pressure from Hua Xia.
Mr. Akland, the director of the Energy Bureau, listened to the two's suggestions and prepared to cut off the Monster Industries' line of communication.
Two planes, a giant engineering ship, and a giant cargo ship.
Now that the Giant God was in the Gulf of Guinea doing engineering development, detaining the ship did not seem to be able to obstruct traffic. That was because the ship would not leave there in the short term. Moreover, the Giant God was a "hero" ship in the hearts of the American people. If it came to the United States, the enthusiastic American people would probably fill the deck with beer and food.
If they dared to detain it, the American people would probably be the first to object.
Since detaining the Giant God was useless, they would detain the other ship.
It was very simple to find out what was being carried on the giant ship rented by the Monster Industries. They just had to check the local customs import and export report and let their spies observe from the sea.
The answer had been obtained. On the container ship, in addition to carrying a large amount of industrial materials, there were 12 sets of supercritical power generators.
12 sets of supercritical power generators!
Oh my god, this is an incredible industrial product. Even the current thermal power stations in the United States were mostly using subcritical power units. The power stations in Africa were not even close to the word critical.
It was much more cost-effective and valuable to keep the industrial supplies on this giant ship than to support a puppet general.
It was not difficult to track the location of the giant ship. All ocean-going ships were equipped with multiple positioning systems. These systems were all developed by the United States. They could find any terminal to search and find the giant ship from the vast sea.
When he found the location, Ackland was overjoyed. The Horizontal container ship had already entered the Straits of Malacca and was in the waters near Penang Island. The Straits of Malacca was the backyard of the United States.
Detain the Horizontal!
…
In the Straits of Malacca, giant ships were advancing on the slightly yellow sea. The Horizontal was still moving according to the scheduled route. A few crew members were standing on the deck, bored to death as they enjoyed the coastal scenery.
Their gazes would occasionally shift to the other side, where they would look at the two men standing there with puzzled expressions.
They were the staff sent by the boss to accompany them. The crew members did not know their names, but along the way, the crew members had a deep impression of their coldness. After sailing for dozens of days, the two employees didn't even chat with them. It was only during meals that the sailors couldn't hold back their curiosity and tried to strike up a conversation with them. Only then would they get a few replies.
When transporting valuable goods, it was common for the owner of the goods to send people to guard the ship.
However, as long as those people boarded the ship, they would have more questions than a three-year-old child. They would always ask the crew this and that. For this reason, the crew even prepared a few sea rods on the ship. When he had no choice, he would throw the fishing rod to them, saying that fishing was their greatest pleasure in the vast sea, and they could even catch sharks.
Up until now, these two had not even been interested in watching them fishing.
"Do you think the two of them are together all day long? Could they be G?" One of the crew members lowered his voice and said, "There's not even any entertainment in this vast sea. But they don't seem to feel bored at all. I guess the two of them have been suppressed in the secular society for too long. When they came to this small world on our ship, it was like entering a paradise. No one would disturb them anymore. "
"I don't think so." The sailor who was questioned laughed and said, "I live next door to them. You know, the soundproofing of the iron compartment is not good. I didn't hear any strange sounds at night."
That person also laughed sinisterly. Then his expression suddenly froze, and he pointed to the shore in front of them.
The shore was beautiful, attracting countless tourists every year, and guarding the northern entrance of the Strait of Malacca was Penang Island.
In the direction he pointed to, two patrol boats with a white bottom and black lid with a Malaysian flag on the roof were like swordfish, breaking through the sea surface and rushing towards the Horizontal.
"Horizontal 0772, we are the second team of the Penang Island Water Police Action Team. Please follow our instructions immediately and stop the ship for our inspection."
"Horizontal 0772 …"
In the radio public channel, there was a call in English from the two patrol boats.
By the time they approached the ocean freighter at high speed, the siren on the top of the ship was already screaming. Several Marine police wearing life jackets stood in front of the machine gun and pointed at the Horizontal freighter with a 25-millimeter barrel.
Inside the cabin, the captain and the first mate looked at each other and couldn't understand what was going on. Why did two Marine police patrol boats come to stop them?
As the saying goes, the wheel sounds ten thousand taels of gold. The Marine police ordered them to dock the ship outside the channel and accept boarding inspection. The wheel set stopped and started, and if they wanted to catch up with the original speed, they would have to spend tens of thousands of dollars of fuel in vain. The key is that the boarding inspection will take a lot of time. This is a huge ship of tens of thousands of tons. The area is like a building, and the deck is piled with goods.
Many of the crew members ran out and leaned against the side of the ship, glaring at the two patrol boats with angry eyes. They cursed the two patrol boats, but they couldn't hear them anyway.
However, the ship still had to stop. The captain could only slow down the ship slowly according to their orders. Finally, the ship was docked in a deep water area five kilometers away from Penang Island. He stopped the wheel set, then lowered the anchor and the crane.
Then, more than a dozen Marine police mounted the deck from the crane with rifles and swept a group of stunned sailors with their muzzles.
The sailors were completely stunned. They had run the Strait of Malacca countless times. They had never seen such a blatant act of intercepting a harmless international ship on the waterway. If you want to check, you will check in the port.
This is the busiest waterway in the world. To put it bluntly, if the Marine police do not have orders from the top, this incident is enough to make them all undress.
"We have received intelligence that your ship is transporting prohibited industrial equipment. We need to conduct a thorough inspection of the ship." The speaker was a dark-skinned policeman, wearing a black uniform and a yellow life jacket, with two short swords crossed on his shoulders, a star and a crown epaulet.
This is the police rank of Senior Assistant Director, which shows that his official position is not small.
"Prohibited industrial equipment?" Captain Zhuo Ningjian, in his fifties, glared and replied in English, "It's ridiculous. Before we cleared the customs, we had already reported the ship's documents to the customs of the three countries under our jurisdiction. What is carried on the ship is clearly written on the document. "
"We are not pirates. What right do you have to conduct a thorough inspection of the ship? Your behavior has violated the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and is not in line with the passage system of the Strait of Malacca. "
"I want to talk to your superiors."
"Yes, you can also inform your shipping company and the company that owns this batch of goods." The chief police officer waved his hand. "But before the inspection is over, none of you are allowed to leave the ship."
The captain stomped his feet angrily and after leaving a few harsh words, he went to the cockpit and prepared to make a satellite phone call. A young Marine police officer followed him under the signal of the officer's eyes.
Less than two minutes later, another white speedboat came from the direction of Penang Island.
After boarding the ship, three men in suits and leather shoes with European and American faces showed their credentials to the crew.
