For the submarine that followed the fleet, perhaps the commander of the submarine could not have dreamed of it. Obviously, the prey he was eyeing made himself the prey. The identities of the hunter and the prey are reversed when the submarine is discovered.

Cruising the seas of Southeast Asia for many years, this pirate-born commander is not without cunning. Fortunately, the performance of the submarine he owned was excellent, and unless it encountered a specialized anti-submarine aircraft or anti-submarine ship, ordinary warships could not do anything about it.

It was with this unexpected conventional submarine with excellent performance that the submarine commander also made a lot of money. Possession of such a submarine, in addition to committing sea raids, can naturally also be used for smuggling crimes.

With his eyeliner all over Southeast Asia, he can always find the most valuable targets for robbery. In fact, in recent years, several foreign salvage vessels have gone missing at sea, and it was he who first ransacked and then sank the salvage boats.

As a result, the salvage ship completely disappeared from the sea, and even if someone launched an investigation on it, it is believed that no clues could be found. And this time he focused on Zhuang Haiyang, more because he knew a ship in the fleet.

Seeing the photos of the fleet sent by his subordinates, and then recognizing one of the boats, the pirate commander quickly said: "These three ships should not be ordinary fishing boats. To be precise, this is a fleet that salvages shipwrecks. ”

Robbery and salvage ships are undoubtedly the most profitable business. Anything salvaged from a shipwreck on the bottom of the sea will not be marked by anyone until it is sold. Just when you do it, you must confirm that there is a salvage treasure on the salvage boat.

And Ma Zai, who had previously reported to him, described in detail the process of the fishing boat being driven away. Through this process, the pirate commander asserted, "They must have been salvaging the wreck last night, that's why they looked so nervous!"

This is the only reason why the salvage ships of Zhuang Haiyang prohibit passing fishing boats and approach the waters where their fleet is located. This also means that in Zhuang Haiyang's fleet, there should be treasures salvaged out of the water last night.

Even Zhuang Haiyang didn't expect that because of the previous conflict with a foreign salvage ship at sea, his salvage ship had already been noticed by someone with a heart. In the eyes of some well-intentioned people, this ship is not a fishing boat at all, but a salvage ship that salvages sunken ships.

Knowing that the fleet was anchored and suspended, the submarine that followed was somewhat puzzled. Considering that the pirate commander remotely commanded the monitoring fishing boats, he did not dare to get too close, for fear of startling the fleet away.

But what he didn't expect was that it didn't take long for the fleet to set sail again. If it weren't for the fact that the speed of the ship was not fast, I am afraid that the submarine commander would also wonder if the monitoring ship he sent made Zhuang Haiyang suspicious.

In fact, his suspicions were right. Those foreign fishing boats encountered during the day really made Zhuang Haiyang suspicious. It's just that Zhuang Haiyang didn't expect that he would be targeted by a submarine, not a surface ship he had encountered in the past.

While they were monitoring Zhuang Haiyang's fleet, Zhuang Haiyang was hiding in the shadows, constantly monitoring the submarines diving under the sea. Seeing that the submarine was speeding up to catch up, Zhuang Haiyang also breathed a sigh of relief.

As the submarine gets closer and closer to the fleet, Zhuang Haiyang goes back and forth between the fleet and the submarine from time to time. Through wireless communication equipment, Hong Wei was instructed to start the salvage operation. He even took the time to get the wreck to float out of the mud.

Seeing that the fleet had stopped sailing again, the pirate commander on the submarine was also very curious: "What do you say, what are they doing here? Why do they stop and go?"

"Boss, now that we're not too far away from them, can we get the submarine closer, and then send our frogmen to get closer to scout, if they're unprepared, we can attack at the right time. ”

His subordinates quickly gave their own suggestions, and for the fat meat targeted this time, these people staying on the submarine are naturally looking forward to the next harvest. To ensure safety, they are extremely cautious in every operation.

Zhuang Haiyang, who sent patrol and guard ships as usual, also paid attention to the every move of the submarine pirates. When the diving group was launched, the security team also selected several special operations elites to lurk near the wreck with weapons and equipment.

When Zhuang Haiyang sensed that there were several heavily armed pirates on the submarine, they were ready to leave the ship through the ejection bay of the submarine. Zhuang Haiyang immediately said: "Junzi, please answer when you receive it!"

"Roger, please!"

Tell the brothers not to panic, to pretend that they don't know anything, and continue to carry out the dredging operation. Security team, continue to lurk. No one is allowed to act without my orders. Do you understand everything?"

"Understood!"

In fact, the actual salvage value of the wreck selected by Zhuang Haiyang is not large. But in order to lure these trailing pirates into taking the bait, he naturally needs to throw bait to make the pirates feel that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Seeing that the pirate submarine sent frogman divers, Zhuang Haiyang felt that they would not take it easy when they saw Zhu Junhong and the others who were being salvaged. This also means that they will wait until the most suitable time to launch a surprise attack on the fleet.

The waiting time was enough for the three warships sent by the old unit to successfully complete the encirclement of the submarine. As long as the warships are encircled in place, it will be impossible for this submarine to escape by then.

Sure enough, as the submarine surfaced to a safe distance, several frogmen dived out of the catapult bay. One of the frogmen in the lead quickly led these men and began to swim towards the sea where the Zhuang Ocean fleet was located.

Unbeknownst to the pirates, there was a man in the sea a hundred meters away from them, who was not wearing any diving gear, watching their every move. And the submarine, still slowly approaching the flotilla at low speed.

When these pirate frogmen saw the lights appearing on the bottom of the sea in front of them, the leading pirates immediately said, "Turn off the lighting equipment and slowly follow me." Let's see, what the hell are they doing?"

The accompanying pirate immediately made an OK gesture. All the pirates slowed down and began to dive to the vicinity of Zhu Junhong and the others, who were dredging. When the leading pirate saw the sunken ship sunk in the mud, his heart was also happy.

Commanded again: "You find a place to hide, and I'll report the situation first." ”

When the submarine commander learned that Zhuang Haiyang's fleet was salvaging a sunken ship, he said excitedly: "Great! I really didn't expect these people to be so lucky." Keep an eye on those people and don't disturb them with their work. ”

"Understood!"

At the end of the call, the pirate commander also excitedly said, "How's it going? I'm not wrong? These guys are very powerful." Under the cover of fishing, they are actually engaged in salvage of sunken ships.

Let the brothers rest and wait for them to salvage the sunken ship before we launch a surprise attack. In that case, all the treasures they salvage will belong to us. Then get back to base before dawn!"

"Yes, Boss!"

What excites these outlaws more than making money!

The frogman battle team that saw the pirates was lurking not far from the salvage team. Zhuang Haiyang quietly found the security team members lurking nearby, told them the location of the pirate frogmen one by one, and asked them to keep an eye on these pirates.

"If the pirates don't move, you stay put. Those pirates, seeing that we are salvaging a sunken ship, will not take it lightly for a short time. This time is enough for our warship to arrive. As soon as the warship arrived, they could not fly. ”

"Understood!"

"I'll go back to the ship, and let me know immediately if there's anything going on. ”

After explaining to the security team, Zhuang Haiyang returned to the ship again while the pirates had temporarily stopped operating. With the help of the satellite phone carried on board, get in touch with the chief of staff of the base and the head of the fleet.

Knowing that Zhuang Haiyang had caught the submarine, the person in charge of the fleet also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Comrade Xiao Zhuang, we are coming at full speed. It should be about an hour away from where you are. Can you hold on?"

At this time, the pirates mistakenly thought that my team was salvaging a sunken ship. The wreck has not been salvaged, so presumably they will not do it easily. At the end of the day, as long as they are greedy for money, they won't do it lightly. ”

"Okay, then we keep in touch at all times, and remember to inform us in time if there is any situation. ”

"Understood!"

Even Zhuang Haiyang didn't know that inside the base, he and his fleet already had a secret codename. Although all of them retired from active service, many ship commanders knew that Zhuang Haiyang and his party were trustworthy.

This operation was also temporarily named 'Operation Hunting Boat' by the base. There is only one purpose, which is to find out this 'ghost submarine' that has been active in the surrounding waters for many years. And even fight to keep this submarine intact.

According to the Navy's dealings with this submarine in recent years, the silence function of this submarine is extremely strong. It is precisely because of the super silent effect that the navies of various countries have searched several times to no avail.

If this submarine can be captured, it will also have extremely high research value for the navy. It can be said that from the moment the operation was launched, the war room of the old army base became brightly lit again.

All the leaders at the base rushed to the combat duty room as soon as possible, and from time to time they learned about the situation with the fleet and the fleet of Zhuang Haiyang. Knowing that everything is going well, all the bases are looking forward to the arrival of the final moment to encircle the submarine.

It's just that many leaders know that once this submarine makes a desperate move and fires torpedoes at the encircled warship, then the rounded up ship must also be prepared to be hit. Because of this, the ships carrying out the mission are also on standby.

In the words of the ship's commander, 'this is not an exercise, this could be a real real battle'. All the officers and men on the ship must also be ready to die at any time. Naturally, the atmosphere on the ships was different from that of previous exercises.

With Zhu Junhong and others, after cleaning up the silt on the sunken ship, under the secret guidance of Zhuang Haiyang, they began to take out things from the sunken ship. The pirate frogman, who had been staring at them, also instantly became excited.

But they didn't expect that a hunting battle around them had been quietly launched. When the three warships completed the encirclement, Zhuang Haiyang could finally say that these guys could not fly with their wings!
