Super military empire

Near the waters of Huangyan Island in the South China Sea, a huge task force is slowly moving towards the northern waters.

The rice-shaped flag flying from the mast of the warship proved that this huge fleet belonged to the former empire that never sets.

During the naval battle on the British Isles of Armagh more than ten years ago, the Sheffield and Invincible-class aircraft carriers, both of which were the most advanced in the Empire, were sunk by Argentina, making the Empire’s navy, once the world’s largest naval power, never set again. The glory of the past is gone.

For the sake of face, the British-Arabic war on the Falkland Islands has not stopped up to now. Although, basically, a few cannons and shots are rarely fired a year, but the empire has long been more concerned about maintaining a huge maritime supply line. And lack of power.

Therefore, the emergence of a huge fleet of more than 30 warships of various types on the edge of the Pacific in Asia is really shocking.

Few countries around the South China Sea can make up such a large fleet, especially with an aircraft carrier and two advanced destroyers.

The fleet was sailing slowly, and all the cargo ships of this fleet were far away from their routes.

The Ark Royal, the light aircraft carrier No. r07, is the third ship of the Invincible-class aircraft carrier of the Empire that never sets, and the last invincible-class aircraft carrier manufactured.The new Queen Elizabeth-class medium-sized aircraft carrier is about to enter service. At that time, the sun never sets the Empire will have three more aircraft carrier fleets.

It stands to reason that such a huge fleet of the sun never sets empire should appear in the South Atlantic, not in the Pacific of Asia, because their war with the Argentines has not yet ended. In Asia, Britain’s last colony will also be in the next few days. lose.

Of course, this huge British fleet is here for this.

The Ark Royal, as the flagship of the entire fleet, gathers commanders of the entire fleet here.

However, at this time, no one had a smile on his face, and they all became solemn.

"You guys, calling from the country, asking us to show China the military power of the Imperial Navy and tell the whole world that we did not return Hong Kong to them because we were afraid of them! It was because our lease expired..." Fleet Commander Major General Stephen Rhodes said to his officers with a serious face.

From the beginning of the formation of the fleet and the beginning of receiving the departure mission, grief enveloped everyone.

During the Battle of Falkland Islands, Britain could also organize a huge fleet of two aircraft carriers and more than two hundred warships to clean up the Argentines.

And now, come to Asia to show the Chinese people their strength, and make the weak Chinese navy tremble when they leave.

However, although the fleet of 34 warships is huge, it is really not enough to see at the gate of China.

How to better accomplish domestic tasks is a question that all officers of the entire mixed fleet are considering.

Hong Kong will be returned to China, and the empire will disappear completely if the sun never sets.

This is the end of the empire.

At home, no one would be willing. Whether it is the royal family or the government, or all the citizens of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, it is emotionally unacceptable.

However, it has to be returned.

China is no longer the way that Britain could bully just two warships.

Although the entire fleet is huge and can deter many countries, China cannot. Although China does not have an aircraft carrier or a large warship, the Chinese navy is definitely not a mess.Especially the anti-ship missiles in the hands of the Chinese, but they ruined the British most proud and most advanced missile destroyer-the Sheffield in the British-Arab naval battle!

That thing, the displacement is not large, only more than 4,000 tons, but the cost is as high as 200 million pounds!

There is also the Invincible aircraft carrier, which was also sunk by Chinese missiles.

If they provoke the Chinese, they will launch anti-ship missiles at the fleet, let alone show off their muscles to China and leave in dignity. It is hard to say whether they can even go back.

The Chinese warships are not good, the aircraft carriers do not, but they reclaimed the sea on the South China Sea to build land to expand the island, and built an airport on the expanded island, so that their fighters can be supplemented, the entire South China Sea is within the combat radius of the Chinese fighters. As before, it rarely happens that islands are invaded by surrounding countries because their fighter jets have insufficient range.

What's more, Vietnam is still in the midst of a civil war. The regime established by educated youth and veterans from China is like a dung-stirring stick that makes the entire South China Sea unrest.

"General, the Chinese Navy has been investigating us more frequently these days, and their fighter jets have also appeared in the air of our fleet less than 20 nautical miles. How can we show our power? Once we lose control and war breaks out, the consequence is not us. Can afford it." A blond-haired, forty-year-old colonel frowned and said, "Don't forget, they have flying fish missiles in their hands!"

Flying fish missiles are a nightmare for all British people.

Ruined the glory of the Imperial Navy.

"Their missiles were able to sink our Sheffield and Invincible, not because our warship was not advanced enough, but because they took advantage of the loopholes, and now these low-level mistakes will not appear in our fleet." The lieutenant colonel stood up and said.

The Flying Fish missile appeared only once, but it scared the entire Imperial Navy to panic when seeing the Argentine aircraft, which made many British generals dissatisfied.

If it were not a coincidence, China’s missiles would never have sunk Britain’s most advanced destroyers and aircraft carriers.

"Okay, stop arguing. We are not here to fight the Chinese, but to show them our strength and maintain the final dignity of the empire. In any case, as long as the other party does not take the lead in firing, we must exercise restraint. At the same time , We can’t provoke...” Major General Stephen Rhodes could not help but feel a little helpless when he saw his captains quarreling.

Fight with the Chinese across half the earth?

This is not the 19th century. China is not the Manchu government of the year. At the same time, the British navy is not as strong as it was then.

Even the Americans, with such a huge fleet, were swept over the head of the aircraft carrier by Chinese bombers at the gate of China, and in the end they could only show off at their doorstep.

"General, or else our fleet will go north directly against the edge of China's territorial waters. Even if we enter their territorial waters, we can say that there is a navigation problem..." a major suggested.

The territorial sea is 12 nautical miles from the sea baseline. Who can know it clearly?Even if it is only within a few meters, it is normal.

Who knows this is the dividing line?

As for the exclusive economic zone, that is not a problem at all. The fleets of other countries have the right to pass harmlessly.

"The whole fleet? If it rushes past, the Chinese will see it as an invasion. We are still at war with the Argentines. Are we going to fight the Chinese again across half the earth?" Regarding this proposal, the Chinese navy started with The colonel who the Air Force would pose a serious threat to them immediately roared.

"Colonel Taylor, you are too pessimistic. The Chinese will not go to war with us at this time." The lieutenant colonel who said that the Chinese missiles sunk the aircraft carrier and the most advanced guided-missile destroyer said unceremoniously. People are frightened. If we are in a state of war, you will let the glory of our Imperial Navy be completely ruined!"

"Enough! Lieutenant Colonel Scomb, we are discussing our mission." Major General Stephen Rhodes saw that he was arguing again, and he patted the table and stood up. "We are arguing here. There is nothing about our mission. Good thing, everyone still think about how we can accomplish the task without triggering diplomatic disputes between the two countries and let our empire leave Asia in a decent way."

The British are a good face.

In any case, the Royal Navy, which has been on this earth for more than two hundred years, needs dignity and needs to maintain their glory.

Even if this glory is no longer.

"Major Ovim's suggestion is good. Although there is no problem with the entire fleet doing this, we can send a frigate and a supply ship to complete this task. Our fleet is parked on the high seas..." Colonel Taylor sighed Take a breath.

The navy that used to walk sideways in the world now has to rely on this method to maintain the last dignity of the empire.

"That's a good suggestion!" Major Stephen Rodriguez nodded.

Besides this, what else?

Even if they were determined to go to war with China, the empire could not support such a war.

The distance is too far, especially as China is stronger and faster.

"I hope they won't get too excited." Colonel Taylor sighed.

Invading the waters of the Chinese, if the Chinese said that they were not careful, and the recruits pressed the missile launch button in excitement, who would they cry to?

Everyone knows that the Chinese navy is not strong enough, but everyone knows that the Chinese navy is not afraid of death.

Especially, no one knows how many nuclear submarines China has.

"Just do it, continue north, and then divide into multiple groups to send warships to show the empire's maritime military power. They already know that we have an aircraft carrier in it!" This is the only confidence in Major General Stephen Rhode's heart.

Even if this is just a light aircraft carrier of more than 10,000 tons, but the Chinese have no warships of more than 5,000 tons, they were still planning to introduce the manufacturing technology of the British Type 42 guided missile destroyer to manufacture their guided missile destroyers.

This aircraft carrier has been able to demonstrate the empire's armed forces.

People in Stephen Rhode’s aircraft carrier fleet never thought that China had a large warship of more than 5,000 tons.

Although China once purchased two battleships from the United States, the United States has dismantled that thing, the main gun and missile systems, what can they do?

Those two battleships can only become targets.

What the British did not expect was that they had never thought about the battleship that China bought back from the United States, which was only a few hundred nautical miles away.

The huge guided missile battleship docked on Yongxing Island not long after it was built, and there has never been a dock for a large warship.

"Director Liu..." Qin Huaibao took Wang Xin to greet Liu Yijiu on the dock. He hadn't seen him for many years. He was already in his forties, his face was dark and his spirit was good.

"This wharf is well built. It's a hard work!" Liu Yijiu patted Qin Huaibao on the shoulder, "My brother back then, I haven't seen you in a few years. I didn't expect you to start to become so divided now. Throwing your husband and wife away. You won’t blame me for so many years here?"

"Director Liu, how could it be? If it weren't for you, it would have been a pile of dead bones if you didn't have enough food. Where can there be such a leisurely life as today..." Wang Xin was indeed very grateful to Liu Yijiu.

If it were not for Liu Yijiu's favoritism that Qin Huai had done in the past, he would be thrown on the island here to build an island. When he encountered a severe attack, he would have died.

She was pregnant with Qin Huaibao's child.

It's better now, the husband and wife have been together forever, and Qin Huaibao is also relieved.

"Yes, yes, I am really more comfortable on this island than in that mountain, and much more comfortable than in other places. Xiao Jiu'er, don’t you know, watching the area of ​​this island expand little by little every day, in my heart You don’t know how much accomplishment you have. When the construction of our airport is completed and the first fighter plane stops here, you don’t know how excited I am! This is an aircraft carrier, built by me. Use an unsinkable aircraft carrier!" Qin Huaibao saw Liu Yijiu and said that he was born, and regardless of the difference in identities between the two, he still used the name of the year.

This made Liu Yijiu feel that there was not much strangeness between them.

"This cargo is called Yongxing Island." Liu Yijiu pointed out that the rear did not fully enter the dock, and the reactor was reduced to the lowest power, only enough to maintain the operation of the various systems on the warship. Once an emergency occurs, it can quickly leave. Port and perform urgent tasks.

Liu Yijiu's purpose here is not just to let the battleship stroll around.

"You mean to say that our navy is strong, starting from this island?" Qin Huaibao's eyes beamed.

The construction on Yongxing Island is indeed related to the safety of the entire South China Sea small pond.

In the past, I could always hear that small neighboring countries came to occupy China’s islands. That was because the flight range of the fighter planes taking off from the South Island Airport was too short to reach.

Since the completion of the airport construction on Yongxing Island, such things have disappeared.

Even the warships of other countries who came to make trouble did not dare to go to the small pond in the South China Sea to take a bath.

Qin Huaibao has been here for so many years, and it is natural that Liu Yijiu has left him here from the very beginning.

Although the conditions are difficult, it was just the beginning. Now all kinds of infrastructure on the entire island have been completed. There are more garrisons, anti-ship missiles will also be installed, and there is also a nursing home of the Ninth Hospital. I can also understand the situation inside Daba Mountain...
