Chapter 20: The South China Sea (4)
Mark is very fortunate that Xiang Ming is not a good man or a good man, and he doesn't know how many unjust souls died in his hands. Mark didn't understand the opponent, so he should be an ostrich and just stay around the submarine. Xiang Ming is now, he is angry, his heart is gone, what he needs most now is to rest, he played Dafa for the first time, but he didn't expect to need so much energy (true qi), consume so much mental power, play too much, prostration, and his whole body is weak, and he even struggles to stand up, sweating all over his body, his face is pale, and he is more like a little white face. Quickly took out two pills from the Qiankun Ring, this is a big golden pill, there are only two in the outside world, one in Shaolin and one in Wudang. If the cultivation world in the outside world knew that Xiang Ming ate two at once in order to restore his true qi, it would probably be shouting, it was really the era of fighting father. Xiang Ming hurriedly took out a few dishes and drank a bottle of Lao Baigan, and was busy meditating to recover. Of course, a single tent was made on top of the rubber boat, and a small flagpole was erected behind the rubber boat to hang the five-star red flag of the Dragon Kingdom. Lay out a formation around the tent, your life matters, and now there is no one to help protect the Fa, so you have to rely on yourself to protect yourself.
The dinghy floats up and down in the waves of the ocean. And this rubber boat has long been under the surveillance of both the United States and Longmei. Who called Xiang Ming's rubber boat appeared on the middle international waterway between the two sides.
The current Dragon Fleet is very nervous, and the 021 boat immediately reported the situation under the water when it urgently surfaced, and was tracked by the submarine of the old United States, which is a big deal, when did the submarine of the old United States be so advanced, and it was able to track the 021 boat without letting the 021 boat find out. This is a big event, if the old American submarine dives under the fleet of the Dragon Kingdom to launch an attack and the Dragon Kingdom is not prepared, then the consequences are unimaginable, it is impossible to prevent it, just a few hundred meters away, there is no time to react, and there is no time for the ship to start turning and avoiding. What a piece of information. This will not be reported to the naval command immediately. Let's study the countermeasures as soon as possible. The 021 boat did not lurk under the water in accordance with the silent regulations to warn against the sneak attack of the old American submarine, which is a serious violation of the regulations, but the current situation is special, even if it does not float, it cannot prevent the infiltration of the old American submarine, and the current floating is also a helpless move, not to mention that there has been a merit, mainly because of the discovery of the old American infiltration. But everyone wondered, since it was discovered that the submarine of Lao Mei had risen urgently, could it be that Lao Mei's submarine was so advanced that it could not slip away again. The military satellites in space were launched, the sonar and radar of almost all the fleets were launched, and the 15 submarines that are now under this sea area have not been found again. In the conference room above the flagship of the Beijing, three admirals and more than a dozen vice admirals are holding a meeting to discuss countermeasures against the infiltration of the Lao US submarine. Admiral Qin Wei, the second vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, was listening to the discussions of the admirals at this time. Liu Haijun, the commander of the navy, and Zhu Lin, the political commissar, also attended the meeting, after all, professional things are left to professional people to discuss. Too much interference in the industry that you don't understand is a problem, and everyone understands it. Don't interfere too much, just sit down.
At this time, the headquarters of the US Seventh Fleet was also in a meeting, and this time the positioning system of the latest submarine in service in the United States was malfunctioning, that is, it disappeared, and no matter how the satellites in the sky searched, there was no way to determine the existence of submarines, and US submarines all had positioning devices. In particular, which positioning device once had a short transmission signal of more than ten seconds. And just like that, the silence was gone. The United States is very nervous about the submarine that cannot be monitored, because the submarine is loaded with four intercontinental* that can hit a range of several thousand kilometers, not to mention that those four intercontinental* are equipped with nuclear warheads. Even if it is missing, it is frightening, and it is not that the United States has not had a time when a submarine defected before, and that time almost caused a nuclear war between the Soviet Union and the United States. Even if it is missing, it must be found, and even if the submarine sinks into the sea in addition to an accident, the cause must be found out, or it must be completely destroyed.
The Seventh Fleet urgently assembled, and all the sailors who had disembarked were given less than an hour to return to the ship, ready to go to the sea area where the submarine finally transmitted the signal. Of course, the U.S. military first sent three Aegis ships to set off first and rushed to that sea area.
The two sides once again focused on Xiang Ming's area. The No. 021 submarine was floating 500 meters away from Xiang Ming's rubber boat. At this time, the upper outlet of the submarine had been opened, and several officers with binoculars were looking at Xiang Ming's rubber boat. "It's strange, when will a rubber boat appear here, look at the bright five-star red flag, needless to say that it is from our Dragon Country." This was the first thought of Lieutenant Colonel Ma Gang, the captain of 021. Everyone looked at it for a few minutes, and there was no movement on the rubber boat, and there was a single tent on top of the rubber boat. Ma Gang immediately sent someone to get a rubber boat and sent 4 sailors to see if it was our fishermen who had an accident and drifted to this place. This area of the sea has long been blocked, even merchant ships have been diverted, and fishing boats have long been persuaded to leave this dangerous place. Except for the ships of the two sides, it is impossible for a third-party ship to appear.
When the officers and men of Boat 021 were about to drive the rubber boat to check the drifting rubber boat, two small black spots had already appeared in the sky, and two Navy helicopters were rushing here.
Ma Gang ordered everyone to speed up and get the rubber boat back. After all, it's our ship.
The fighters immediately inflated, and in a few minutes they had been inflated on top of the submarine, and everyone worked together to push the rubber boat into the water. Four Navy sailors went down to the dinghy with their oars. The four of them shouted the trumpet, and they slid the paddles in unison, and the dragon boat race knew no, just like that. The rubber boat was undulating in the waves, but it still moved towards Xiang Ming's rubber boat. The US helicopters had already arrived with a roar, and the huge whirlwind of the propellers blew the sea into waves. Xiang Ming's rubber boat was just below the US military helicopter, and the rubber boat was even more undulating and shaking. Ma Gang, the captain of Boat 021, saw that the US helicopter had reached the top of the rubber boat and circled. I'm in a hurry. I can't wait to fly over and get to the dinghy. As for the sailors of the 021 boat who were already on the way, they were also very anxious when they saw the US military helicopter hovering above the rubber boat 300 meters above. Slide the paddles harder. But playing in a rubber boat in the sea is very strenuous, one wave after another, and every meter of progress is difficult. But everyone still tried their best. The sea is usually windless and three-foot waves, and the smaller the boat, the more strenuous it is.
A U.S. helicopter was already hovering above the rubber boat, and now the wind blowing from the helicopter propeller drove the rubber boat straight out below. Therefore, the helicopter cannot hover directly above. Slightly off. The hatch had long since opened, and an American soldier was wearing an orange life jacket with a rope hanging from his waist, needless to say preparing to descend.
And the four sailors sent by the 021 boat also rushed to the 30-meter place of the rubber boat, and now the wind and waves here are too fast, mainly because the wind blowing from the helicopter propeller above is too strong. No matter how hard the sailors tried, they could not move forward, but went backwards, and the helicopter of another US military seemed to deliberately make things difficult for the sailors of the rubber boat, and deliberately hovered the helicopter in the direction of the rubber boat. Even if the sailors made a detour, the helicopter immediately followed, crossing in front of the dinghy, and even letting the wind of the propellers push the dinghy backwards. Several pilots and members of the helicopter on top of the helicopter all smiled happily when they saw the navy rubber boats of the Dragon Kingdom below deflated, and they were not having much fun. The officers and soldiers of the 021 boat who saw this scene were so angry that Ma Gang almost gritted his teeth and grabbed the railing tightly with both hands. Order the submarine to move in a small area, as close to the area as possible. Soon the submarine started and slowly approached Xiang Ming's rubber boat at a speed of 5 knots. Now this situation is very dangerous. Why do you say that, now the submarine is surfacing. There is basically no defense capability, not to mention that now it is an anti-submarine helicopter of the US military, just take the US military's airborne machine gun and you can fiercely knead the 021 boat. Now the 021 boat still dares to approach, that is, it is betting that the US helicopter will not dare to fire. The submarine that surfaces is equivalent to a defenseless girl, and even an emergency dive will take time.
The submarine was just 300 meters ahead and could not go any further. This distance is the bottom line of the last tolerance of the US military, and the United States has seen the tweeter of the US military helicopter repeating the broadcast in a few times. That was a warning to the 021 boat that it could not move on, and that it was about to open fire when it was advancing. Boat 021 also reported this to the fleet. The fleet command asked Ma Gang to restrain him, and now the fleet has sent three Mi-8 helicopters to support, and has also sent two brigade-level ships over.
Fortunately, the four sailors of the rubber boat were witty, since the US military did not let the rubber boat advance, then our brave sailors jumped into the water and swam over, betting that the US troops would not dare to kill them, which would be beyond the bottom line. The sailors jumped into the water one after another, and the US helicopter pilot was dumbfounded, he had never seen this situation, and he did not immediately ask for instructions from above. As a result, the helicopter was immediately ordered to give way. It's okay to play with the navy of the Dragon Kingdom, and it's okay to flirt with it, but you can't kill people, and once you get killed, it gives the Dragon Kingdom a problem of grasping the initiative.
