Not only was Major Chatonov curious about the Chinese ships that came to support, but the American journalist Edwards on the "Thinker" was also very interested, and if he was the captain, he would not hesitate to direct the "Thinker" to approach the approaching Chinese ship.

It's a pity that the "Thinker" is Lieutenant Colonel Mitchell, and this cautious and old-fashioned naval officer does not seem to be interested in Chinese ships at all, in his words, even if the warships of the Chinese Navy are advanced, they are just well-maintained antiques, and I do not think that antiques have any other value than remembering history.

Lieutenant Commander Mitchell was more concerned about the new electronic jamming equipment equipped with the Soviet reconnaissance ship, because just a few minutes earlier, the "Thinker" had been subjected to several violent electromagnetic countermeasures, so that the "Thinker", which had extremely advanced electronic equipment, fell into chaos and was busy for a while before returning to normal.

By this time, Soviet reconnaissance ships had long since disappeared without a trace.

It was actually defeated by the electronic warfare of the Soviet Union!

Of course, what is more important is the new electronic jamming equipment of the Soviet reconnaissance ship, which is not only powerful, but also covers a fairly wide spectrum, so that for a period of time, the "Thinker" was like a deaf and blind person, and it could not find the south, south, west, and west at all.

What if the Soviets coldly give the US Navy a chance in a possible future maritime conflict? The style of the fighting nation is a joke, and if you don't play well, you will be bruised all over your body, so in any case, it is necessary to find out the situation of the Soviet Union's electronic jamming equipment.

Because of this, although Mitchell was not interested in Chinese ships, he secretly followed the Soviet "Golden Wheat Wave" like a thief, but accidentally matched Edwards's heart.

At the same time, the department will occasionally release some electronic interference in the frequency band to test the "Golden Wheat Wave" that is rapidly heading north, so as to induce the "Golden Wheat Wave" to turn on electronic interference again, so as to obtain the frequency band parameters of the new Soviet jamming machine.

However, this time, the "Golden Mai Lang" and the tsundere girl who was ready to break up completely, let the "Thinker" toss blindly behind the buttocks, just ignored it, and was really annoyed, so he used the same frequency band to add more power to fight back.

Every time the "Thinker" was like a slap in the face, some of the shipyard's electronic equipment was like a hacksaw sawing iron bars, and the eardrums of the people were stinging.

In this way, the two electronic reconnaissance ships of the United States and the Soviet Union repeatedly tried and probed, and the electromagnetic environment in this sea area was extremely complicated, and the Oriental Union Fleet, which was already lacking Y-8 maritime patrol planes to relay communications, was made even more passive by the electromagnetic confrontation between the "Golden Mailang" and the "Thinker."

Fortunately, the flagship was equipped with a high-power radio, and under constant adjustments and calls, finally before lunch, the fleet made contact with the 5506 ships that came to support, which finally gave the passive Eastern Union fleet a glimmer of hope.

In desperation, the Eastern Union fleet could only inform the 5506 ship of the fleet's preliminary prediction of the Soviet submarine, hoping that the 5506 ship would remain vigilant before the convergence.

Although Rear Admiral Chatonov on the "Golden Wheat Wave" could not decipher the intercepted telecommunications signals of the Eastern Union Fleet, he could guess one or two of them from the performance of the source ship that was originally moving at high speed but suddenly slowed down.

To be honest, I was really a little worried at the beginning, after all, with the strength of the Chinese Navy, being able to run for twelve hours at an average speed of 28 knots is definitely the main force of the main force of the Chinese Navy, the elite of the elite.

As a result, when the curious Major Chatonov commanded the "Golden Wheat Wave" to approach the 5506 ship, he was extremely disappointed by the scene in front of him.

The ships that came to support were indeed the main force of the Chinese Navy, and perhaps the elite of them, the Type 037 submarine hunting ship, whose imitation prototype had been eliminated by the Soviet Union a few years earlier, but China continued to build it in large quantities as a treasure.

But even so, the Type 037 with a displacement of less than 400 tons still can't change the appearance of a small ship, not to mention anything else, the "Golden Mai Lang" with a displacement of 1,200 tons looks much stronger than the Type 037 submarine hunter with a board number of 5506.

Because of this, standing on the bridge of the "Golden Wheat Wave", holding a telescope, looking at the slowly approaching 5506 ship through the fine rain curtain, Major Chatonov pulled unnaturally, a little surprised, but more self-deprecating.

was actually tossed by an old Type 037 submarine hunter, I really don't know how my colleagues will laugh at themselves when I go back.

"But it's not without gains, at least it's clear that China has made great strides in the reliability of marine diesel engines, and it seems that a few years ago, China imported a batch of naval equipment from France and digested it very quickly, so quickly there were results. ”

Major Chatonov thought to himself, and was slightly amazed at China's ability to absorb foreign technology, but that's all, an old-fashioned equipment that has long been eliminated by the Soviet Union and is not even looked down upon by a second-rate naval power, even if it is changed, where can it be changed?

In the vast ocean, the giant ship is the king, not to mention the small ship weighing hundreds of tons, let alone the waves, not to be slapped apart by the huge waves, even if God is gracious.

At this moment, isn't the 5506 ship in the telescope a true portrayal? Ups and downs in the waves, lonely and helpless, I really don't know if the next moment will be swallowed by the uncertain waves, which perfectly interprets what is called a flat boat.

"An old warship of several hundred tons wants to cover a fleet, poor Chinese, they are always so crazy and unrealistic!"

Major Chatonov, who lost interest, sighed without a hint, put down the binoculars, and was about to order to turn around and go back to continue to monitor the trembling Chinese fleet, but before he could issue an order, the communications staff officer suddenly stood up and reported urgently, "Captain, the B-79 is locked by sonar, and I ask our ship to drag the locked ship and cover the B-79 to leave, which is the course and direction that the B-79 is expected to break away." ”

As he spoke, the communications staff officer handed the telegram he had just translated to Major Chatonov.

Chachenov's originally calm face suddenly became nervous, B-79 is a "foxtrot" class conventional submarine of the Soviet Pacific Fleet, stationed in Cam Ranh Bay to rest during ocean training, and then returned to prepare to return to the Pacific Fleet's home port, as a result of catching up with the Chinese fleet's ocean-going training, the captain of the B-79 felt that this was a good opportunity to hone their technical and tactical capabilities, so under the cover of the "Golden Wheat Wave", they followed the Chinese fleet all the way underwater.

Although the Chinese fleet later became aware of it and began to carry out anti-submarine grouping, the backward equipment and unresponsive power systems of the Chinese ships emboldened the B-79 to play a cat-and-mouse game with the Chinese fleet.

Seeing this, Chatonov also tossed with the B-79, but he was just training with the Chinese fleet, and he didn't really treat the other side badly, if he was dissatisfied, he could force the B-79 out.

As a result, as soon as he let B-79 go unchecked on his side, he was locked on sonar.

Chatonov immediately frowned, and immediately suspected that the US "Thinker" not far behind him had done it, so he turned his head and asked the intelligence staff officer, "Can the source of the sonar be determined?"

"Yes!" the intelligence staff officer nodded.

"Where?"

The intelligence staff officer's voice was a little dry, and he replied with difficulty, "China's 5506 ship." ”
