He has watched a lot of movies, so he also knows that, generally speaking, all actions that are advertised as "the last time" often don't end well.

But luckily, everything has gone smoothly so far.

This cargo ship has crossed a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers and passed the most dangerous stage. Even in the Gulf of Aden, where pirates are said to be most prevalent, they have not encountered danger.

Everything should go smoothly for the rest of the journey, but Wang Xianzong always felt a little uneasy.

He held the rudder tightly with his hand and asked the first mate beside him:

"Have you contacted Djibouti? Can our warships provide escort?"

The first mate shook his head and replied:

"I got in touch, but they haven't responded yet."

"The Americans are too tight. They can't leave the base at will."

"It seems that all Chinese ships have not been escorted recently."

"But it's not a big problem. I contacted several ships in front of me and they said that the probability of hitting the American ship is low."

"Even if you get hit, it usually won't be a big problem. At most, you'll be stopped and questioned for a few words, and you'll be released soon."

"The only exception was Lao Xutou's ship. He was smart and hired a security company to escort him across the Gulf of Aden. However, Lao America found out that the security company had connections with Sudan, and the ship was delayed for several hours."

Hearing the first mate's words, Wang Xianzong couldn't help but frown.

He took a deep breath and cursed:

"Damn it, these naughty Americans are really looking for trouble!"

"This is fucking high seas. What right do they have to inspect our ship? Do they really think they are the world's police?"

"So awesome, why don't they kill those pirates? Why are they always making things difficult for us!"

"Return to Somali pirates, I think they are the biggest pirates!"

The first mate sighed helplessly and replied:

"There's no way to do that. People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads."

"Haven't you heard? Recently, more than a dozen ships from the United States and the United States have been crowded in the Gulf of Aden, including an aircraft carrier."

"They seem to be preparing to go to war in Sudan - but I think the war is fake, and the disgusting thing about us is real."

"Over in Djibouti, our warships are blocked and can't get out. Can't we just leave it like this for the time being?"

"They can't do anything, so what else can we do?"

"Be patient, we are not strong enough now. When we have an aircraft carrier one day, we will let them see how we behave."

Wang Xianzong nodded silently and said nothing.

In fact, in just a few words, he had even thought about how he would drive this huge cargo ship to fight with the enemy if he was really stopped by an American warship.

The bow of a cargo ship is much harder than that of a warship. If the angle is controlled well, it can even directly ram through the warship.

If you are really lucky and can sink a warship, then you can be regarded as an anti-American hero who has made great contributions, right?

Thinking of this, he laughed to himself.

In fact, this can only be thought about.

I want to be a hero, but the crew on this ship still have to eat.

Everyone has a family and a house, and you certainly can't ruin someone else's family just because of impulse.

Therefore, Wang Xianzong silently suppressed the anger in his heart, and then said:

"Go back and check again later, prepare all the procedures, and if there is any contraband, clear it out as soon as possible."

"If we are unlucky and encounter them, we must make it clear that we will not dock at the Red Sea and will go directly to Europe through the Suez Canal."

"In short, we just can't let them think that we might pass through Port Sudan."

"To put it bluntly, they just don't want our country to evacuate overseas Chinese so easily and do all these roundabout things!"

"Understood, I'll get ready."

The first mate agreed and left the captain's cabin, while Wang Xianzong continued to sail the ship.

He kept praying in his heart, hoping that he would have some good luck.

But unfortunately, fear comes as no surprise. Soon, the signals of other ships appeared on the radar screen.

Immediately afterwards, a call in English came from his radio.

The content is simple, let him slow down and wait for inspection.

"His grandma's!"

Wang Xianzong couldn't help but cursed. He wanted to ignore it and rush over, but unfortunately, not long after, he saw a warship flying the Stars and Stripes appearing on the sea in the distance.

People have been waiting for a long time.

Now that you've come, let's make peace with it.

If it's a little troublesome, just be a little troublesome. When the time comes, say a few more nice words and treat them as auspicious words to them when visiting their graves.

The cargo ship continued to move forward, and the outline of the warship in the distance became clearer.

Wang Xianzong soon saw that in addition to warships, several speeding boats appeared on the sea and were heading in his direction.

This is the US inspection ship.

He continued to slow down the boat, feeling unwilling to do so.

In fact, judging from the feedback from other ships, these Americans did not do anything too extreme. Although they blocked the road for inspection, they basically followed the rules.

But even so, Wang Xianzong still felt angry, and the point of his anger was just one sentence:

Why?

What law enforcement power do you have, and why can you investigate me?

Seeing the boat getting closer and closer, Wang Xianzong became more and more irritable.

He felt that his dignity had been trampled on.

——

No, not only your own dignity, but in this case, the dignity of the entire country has been trampled on.

It would be nice if we had more warships.

Even if there are two or three more ships here, the United States will not dare to be so arrogant, right?

His hand let go of the rudder and silently clenched his fists.

At this time, the two small boats were only a few hundred meters away from the cargo ship. Wang Xianzong was about to go to the deck to wait, but the next second, something unexpected happened to him.

The small boat that was heading towards them actually turned around.

The originally noisy radio suddenly became silent.

He looked at the scene in front of him strangely and subconsciously asked the first mate:

"What happened? Why did you leave again? No more checking?"

The first mate shook his head in confusion as well. After observing for a long time, he replied:

"It seems that they stopped checking. Look, the two warships have turned around. It feels like they are giving way?"

"Make way for us? How is that possible!"

Wang Xianzong sighed and continued:

"Are they still afraid of us? It's impossible. There must be something else."

"wrong!"

The first mate suddenly came to his senses.

"They are not making way for us. Rather, they are making way for the boat behind us!"

After that, the first mate quickly ran towards the stern of the ship.

Wang Xianzong followed closely behind and looked towards the sea in the distance with him.

And soon, he understood the reason why the American ship "gave way".

At the junction of sea and sky, a silver-gray warship slowly rose to the surface of the sea.

And above the mast of the warship, a bright red color was flying.

That was the Zhengzhou ship that had just arrived in the Gulf of Aden.

At the same time, a call in Chinese came from the radio.

"This is the ZZ ship."

"Please note that cargo ship number sanjiangkou19801465227153 ahead, we have received your ship escort application."

"We are following you, don't stop the ship, keep moving forward."
