Chapter 1451 Sail the English Channel
At noon, it was time to set sail.
"Woo——!"
The melodious whistle sounded one after another, resounding throughout the port of Le Havre.
With the sound of the whistle, the deep-sea salvage ship Brave Intrepid and the superyacht 'Pretty Baby' left the berth one after another, splitting the crystal clear water, and slowly sailing towards the blue Atlantic Ocean outside the harbor.
In the sky above these two large ships, four medium-sized helicopters are roaring and circling, escorting the fleet that is going out to sea to explore and salvage the treasure of the sunken ship.
One of them is the Bell helicopter equipped by the Brave Intrepid and belongs to Ye Tian's private owner, and the other silver-white Airbus helicopter is the helicopter on the 'Pretty Baby'!
The remaining two are the two medium-sized helicopters leased by Ye Tian after he arrived in Europe, which have been serving him, providing air support and protection, all from the European branch of Raytheon!
Piloting these four helicopters were a group of armed security personnel led by Pique, each of whom was heavily armed and on high alert!
The other armed security personnel led by Mattis were scattered on two large ships to protect the two billion-dollar ships and protect Ye Tian.
As soon as the fleet set sail, a superyacht moored at another berth not far from the port of Le Havre also sounded its whistle and slowly sailed away from its berth, following the Intrepid Brave.
At the same time, a helicopter that had previously parked on the aft helipad of the superyacht also roared up and joined the helicopter team in the air to follow the fleet.
This is a superyacht leased by the National Geographic Channel live broadcast team for live broadcasting, and its volume is much smaller than the 'beautiful baby' that Ye Tian and they are riding, and it is also slightly old!
Even so, the superyacht is more than 100 meters long, with five decks and all the amenities, making it a luxurious castle floating on the sea!
In the blink of an eye, three large ships lined up and formed a fleet.
Ye Tian's superyacht 'Pretty Baby' is the first to ride the wind and waves, leading the fleet forward, and the brave dreadnought is in the center, with a special hull and towering deep-sea salvage equipment on board, which is quite eye-catching!
At the end of the team is the superyacht leased by the National Geographic Channel live broadcast team, with a streamlined hull, which is also very eye-catching!
In the sky above this fleet, five medium-sized helicopters are circling, the engine whistling is deafening, and the high-speed rotating propellers set off waves on the sea, and the scene is spectacular!
In addition, a large group of white seagulls rushed to join in the fun, flying up and down around several big boats, so happy, as if they were cheering for Ye Tian and them!
Looking at this scene in front of you, whether you are at the scene in the port of Le Havre, or those who are watching the live broadcast in front of the TV, you can't help but be shocked!
"Wow! Where is this fleet going out to sea to explore and salvage the treasure of the sunken ship, it's a fleet at all! It's an exaggeration! Steven is such a crazy bastard!"
"Who says it's not! Only a profitable business can dare to put on such a big battle, and if you change to any other kind of business, it is estimated that you will have to lose your bottoms!
Steven's bastard is in a lucrative business, he always finds treasure with great ease, and every treasure hunt is rewarding!"
In the midst of the discussions, the fleet of two superyachts and a deep-sea salvage ship was drifting away and was about to leave the port of Le Havre.
The other ships that had been anchored in the harbor also left the harbor one after another, following the fleet that was exploring the treasure of the shipwreck, heading for the Atlantic Ocean outside the harbor.
Many ships moored in the sea outside the harbor, through the ship's radar or other means of communication, have also learned the news at this time, and have started their engines and are ready to set sail!
There are large and small yachts and fishing boats, cargo ships and salvage boats, as well as government official ships and police patrol boats flying the flags of various countries from Britain, France and several neighboring countries!
Without exception, everyone in these ships was extremely excited at this time, their eyes shining brightly, and many of them had the greedy light of Chiguoguo in their eyes!
Not only here, but outside the French territorial waters twelve nautical miles from the port of Le Havre, a large number of ships have also received the news, just waiting for the arrival of the treasure hunting fleet, and then start the engines and follow closely!
For these swarming ships and those who have ill intentions, Ye Tian didn't pay attention to it.
At this time, he was sitting with Betty in the relaxation area on the top deck of 'Pretty Baby', enjoying the sea breeze and enjoying the surrounding scenery, while laughing and chatting with Anderson.
As the fleet was about to leave the port of Le Havre, Matisse's voice suddenly came through the headphones.
"Steven, the fleet is about to leave port, and after leaving the port of Le Havre, which direction shall we sail in the Atlantic or the North Sea?"
"Sailing in the direction of the Atlantic, and when the fleet has rounded Cape Petit Ormonville, I will give the direction of the next stage"
Ye Tian smiled and whispered, pointing out the direction of the fleet's sailing.
The exact location of the shipwreck treasure was known to him alone, so he could only direct the fleet to sail to the location of the shipwreck treasure.
Fortunately, the English Channel is a very busy and well-established shipping route, a choke point that has been surveyed countless times by the coastal countries.
Coupled with the assistance of modern navigation equipment, the influence of the fog that often fills the strait is avoided as much as possible, making this section of the channel very safe and basically no danger!
From the French port of Le Havre, whether sailing to the Atlantic Ocean or to the North Sea, there are ready-made shipping lanes to choose from, and there are no problems.
"Understood, Steven, I'll tell you to go down and sail to the Atlantic!"
Matisse answered, and immediately took action.
Soon, the treasure hunting fleet sailed out of the harbor, leaving Le Havre behind and heading northwest into the arms of the English Channel.
Sail northwest across the bay and around Cap Petit Ormanville in France to see the Atlantic Ocean.
Once there, the English Channel will get wider and closer, and the shipwreck treasure will get closer!
As soon as the fleet left the port, Ye Tian, who was sitting in the recreation area on the top deck of the 'Pretty Baby', saw the long-awaited ships outside the port!
The ships had started their engines, adjusted their attitudes, and slowly moved away from their original moorings, and approached the treasure hunting fleet!
Don't think about it, the guys in those ships, at this time everyone has a greedy light in their eyes, dreaming of a windfall!
But what did they know was that instead of the splendor of gold and jeweled diamonds, they were greeted by scorching bullets, razor-sharp blades, and the sharp fangs of the killers of the seas!
And, of course, there's the terrifying water pressure that can crush people in an instant!
For them, the shipwreck, full of gold and jewels, is not a shortcut to the pinnacle of life, but a gate to hell!
From the beginning to the end, the staggering amount of gold and jeweled diamonds never belonged to them and never will belong to them!
Ye Tian condescendingly glanced at the swarming ships, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but reveal a sneer, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and the murderous intent loomed!
The fleet continued to move forward for some distance as Matisse's voice came through the headphones again.
"Steven, there are so many ships following us, not only British and French police patrol boats and government official ships, but also many large and small yachts, and other unidentified ships!
Then there were the official ships from Ireland, Belgium, and Germany, which were obviously not good! It is conceivable that everyone in these ships was trying to get a piece of the shipwreck's treasure!
These ships are too close to us to carry out our operations, and the English Channel is foggy, if you let them follow so closely, there may be an accident, should you drive them away?"
Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately sneered and whispered:
"Don't worry, Mattis, when the fleet sails out of French territorial waters and joins up with the four flybridge yachts sent by Raytheon Security, they will stop the ships behind!
At that point, we will be able to take the opportunity to speed up and distance ourselves from the ships behind us, and it is the open sea, so we don't need to shrink back when we act!"
"Okay, Steven, then let these guys follow for a while"
Mattis responded, and ended the call.
The flotilla continued to sail on the sea, cleaving the waves and heading straight for the Atlantic, while Le Havre, at the rear of the flotilla, became smaller and smaller, gradually being thrown out of view!
