Chapter 1274: 1353: Traces of Destroyer

Half an hour later, the crew of the lifeboat, running wildly on all sides, saw the end of the ocean behind them, with two huge flames rising.

At this distance, they can no longer hear the sound of munitions martyring.

But the flame of a hundred meters' height has shown that Hervé's fifth fleet will henceforth completely lose one main battleship and two frigates engaged in the ocean.

One [whale hunting operation] should be a fun and easy journey in the Rashi Idea of Joint Fleet Commander.

If the buoys are thrown into the sea, the target submarine or ship will be frightened immediately and let them slaughter?

As a result, they encountered a head that was particularly iron, at speeds that could treat an otherwise deadly torpedo as a boat for sea turtles to walk on.

It's all like a dream.

But the cold sea breeze, and the turbulent lifeboat, kept forcing Rashid to stay awake.

……

The ocean flashes with golden afterglow at sunset.

As this golden finish slowly fades, the pristine ocean turns into an infinite black curtain.

Rashid's lifeboat is like a piece of dust attached to the screen.

Fear, petty, helpless.

Their lifeboats are running out of fuel at this time and can only fluctuate on the surface of the sea. Darkness brings these negative emotions to the ground, slowly quenching the will of all.

They did not know how long they had spent at sea before finally seeing a glimmer of light at the end of the darkness.

The staff member was excited to grab the signal behind him and try to launch it, but was pressed down by Commander Rashid.

“Identification first.” At the same time as Rachet spoke, he turned on his private handheld radio, which had been shut down for a long time, until it was confirmed that the arrival was his own, before sending a high-rise flare into the sky.

Located on the other side of Madagascar, three other warships carrying out the embargo mission have finally arrived.

After a five-hour emergency voyage, they were originally involved in a pursuit operation, but became companions in rescuing drifting on the sea.

Two hours later, all three warships recovered from the lifeboat were fully loaded with radar detection, and the SQR-20 main passive drag sonar system was seated in a listening seat with a full five listeners.

The three warships were cautious enough not to be cautious, a little closer to the location of the two ships that had self-destructed on the surface in the evening.

Before the evacuation, the crew recorded GPS coordinates for the two vessels, with military grade positioning coordinates accuracy, with an error of no more than one metre in this open sea area.

But the searchlight went over and there was no sign of the wreckage of the two warships on the surface.

Two warships should have sunk into the sea, an average depth of 80 metres, essentially eligible for fishing.

They're going to salvage two warships.

Even if the ammunition depot was detonated, the shockwave could not have torn the whole ship to pieces.

Modern warships were designed with the full benefit of the tears of blood that their predecessors had learned over hundreds of years. In order to minimize the damage caused by martyrdom in ammunition depots, not only is the depot located away from the command tower with the highest degree of integration of electronic equipment, it is also surrounded by an alarmingly thick high-strength alloy armoury to reduce external strikes and the potential impact on the depot.

In addition to being equipped with an intensive fire suppression system in the ammunition depot, different types of ammunition are separated to minimize the power of martyrdom by allowing martyrdom explosions to occur at the same time as possible.

Unlike general martyrdom, this time both ships have struck out all the missiles they carry, greatly reducing the power of martyrdom.

So even if the salvaged warships are no longer eligible for repair, engineers can remove at least half of the ship's equipment for reuse.

Combined supply, rescue and salvage boats will arrive in two days. And in the meantime, they have to be prepared.

An unmanned submersible detector was lifted into the water by the ship's personnel for initial observation of damage to the warship.

As a result, the crew operating the submersible detector snuck away for half a day, hardly finding a half-point shadow of the destroyer.

Commander Rachet even suspected that their positioning coordinates had been tampered with if there had not been fragments of fragmented decks and ship parts on the seabed.

Where's the destroyer?

They immediately turned on the active sonar base, which has the capability of seabed terrain detection.

As a result, 30 nautical miles were scanned and no trace of the destroyer was found.

The frigate had not been lost, but it had broken into two truncated pieces lying still on the seabed.

There can only be one possibility that explains why the destroyer disappeared.

That was hours ago, the target ship arrived around the destroyer, dragged the slow-burning destroyer behind the ship and dragged it away.

Destroyer is only an 8,000-ton vessel, in front of the target vessel as if it were a cargo truck and sedan.

This is possible as long as the target vessel carries a towed cable and the hull of the destroyer is not broken to the point of sinking.

……

The next day.

The reconnaissance satellite, which arrived again at the port of the Anut district, returned a top-down photograph that shocked everyone with outrage.

The port in the photograph, although there was no trace of the black ship on the berth.

On the port side, a boat with a broken rear half and an intact front deck and command tower is lying quietly on the beach.

As long as you're not blind, you can recognize that this wrecked ship is just a warship, and that it's a Berk-class missile destroyer that they're proud of.

The destroyer is now lying on the beach, surrounded by a simple fence. Satellites also happen to photograph their numbers together, as if they were intentionally placed there for satellite photography.

When the photographs were handed over to the conference room table at the Fifth Fleet headquarters, officers of all sizes and sizes attending this meeting were almost pissed off.

Half an hour later, the President's Office received an unsigned message.

There are only a few words on the message:

Return ship 93.

Ye Qing returned a "rolling” word.

Ye Qing has arrived in Anut district at this time.

Instead of aboard the Falcon, he boarded a Phase IX [Lord's Battleship].

Upgrading to phase IX, the Lord's Battleship has become an aerial monster capable of carrying 2,000 tons and with supersonic capabilities.

Ye Qingzheng Anut District is now hundreds of kilometers from the port on a rough beach under a cliff.

The humpback whale is actively landing here.

The humpback whale is a flat-air cushioned high-speed wheel that doesn't eat water depth, so the humpback whale just moors on a shallow beach at high tide.

In addition to Ye Qing, there are also crystals and several master craftsmen in the control room of the humpback whale.

“It's war.” The electric crystal has two ears that are continuously discharged.

“There are bugs provoking my dignity.” The master's restraint is a little better, and he's slightly rickety, looking at the nautical footage taken from the external optical surveillance device.

When he saw the bow shoot a bunch of missiles coming toward him, the master stared, “Boss, do you have any of these missiles on that wrecked boat you dragged back? ”

“No, we've checked inside and outside the ship. All missile launchers are empty.” Ye Qing shook his head, "but I have asked metal experts to dismantle the electronic equipment in the command tower, maybe these things will give us a better understanding of their level of electronic informatization. ”

“It's just a pile of rubble, and we build a directional ultra-high power electromagnetic generator, and we run into them at sea, and we don't say hello, we just light it up. ”

Ye Qing is not as optimistic as the master of ingenuity, “Next time, he may not be so lucky. ”

“It was just a missile launch from a destroyer and frigate that almost hit the humpback whale to the bottom of the ocean. ”

“We were lucky that only one cruise missile hit the hull. If there's a second one and it hits the top of the control room, have you thought about the consequences? ”

“Besides, do you know how many frigates and destroyers they own? ”

“They also have amphibious assault ships, aircraft carriers, Tikandroka cruisers and submarines. We have electromagnetic generators that can destroy electronics within two nautical miles, but electromagnetic waves can fade rapidly in sea water, and we can't handle submarines at all. ”

“Now it looks like we've only done radar invisibility, not sound invisibility at all. I'm sure the next time they trace the Whale, they'll hit hundreds of missiles. ”

The master of ingenuity did not speak, the crystalline air hummed and said, “Boss, you give me control of the Lord's Battleship, I don't want it in three days, I flatten the Fifth Fleet. ”

Ye Qing spread out his hands, “I'm afraid that would be a nuclear bomb. ”

“But don't worry, I can't stand this like you. ”
