"Okay, don't be sassy, go back and get a beer for Lao Tzu!" raised his hand and slapped the little brother's head again, this time the little brother was prepared, his neck shrunk, and he slipped away quickly, shouting while running: "Do you want Tsingtao beer or Munich, Germany?"

"Qingdao. He shouted at the back of the little brother Zongchong, then walked to Zhao Changshu and sat down, and asked Zhao Changshu softly: "Brother gun, do you think we may really encounter the warships of country M?"

Zhao Changshu nodded and said solemnly: "It's very likely." I estimate it to be more than 60 percent. ”

The fact that they defeated the robbers and snatched back the "Queen" was so big, and that they had just made such a show at the port of Manila and openly opened fire on the Philippine border inspection boat, these things would certainly spread throughout the world in the near future, and if the spy personnel of country M could not figure out the truth of the matter, then they would really be in ruins.

"What should we do if we do encounter the M** ship?" asked the president, touching his bald head.

Of course, he will not be as naΓ―ve as his junior brother, who wants to beat the M** ship with a few machine guns.

In fact, it is very clear in the general mind that they were able to defeat the robbers and snatch the "Queen", mainly because the robbers underestimated the enemy and treated the "Queen" as an ordinary freighter, so they unexpectedly took advantage of the loophole and caught the robbers off guard. If they really want to let their freighters and warships fight a naval battle, their "Queen" will definitely be defeated, without the slightest suspense.

A smile suddenly appeared on Zhao Changlan's face, and he said: "It's still the same sentence, the US imperialist is a paper tiger, the soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it, so there is nothing to be afraid of." ”

I almost suspect that something is wrong with my ears, the entire Pacific Ocean is under the control of the Pacific Fleet of Country M, Brother Gun doesn't really think that their freighter can wrestle with the entire Pacific Fleet like that little brother, right?

So he immediately stared at Zhao Changshu with wide glasses and said, "Brother gun, don't you think that we can defeat the Pacific Fleet of country M with our machine guns?"

"Haha, our Queen is not enough for the Pacific Fleet to stuff the teeth! How can we resist them? But if the people of Country M want to destroy us, they must first find our whereabouts, as long as we don't let them find us, aren't we safe?" Zhao Changshu said with a smile.

"Country M's ocean exploration technology is so advanced, they should be able to spot us easily, right?" asked the general manager suspiciously.

"Hehe, it's definitely not easy for them to find us in the vast Pacific Ocean. The most reliable way to search for a target on the sea surface is to dispatch an early warning aircraft, and it is a large early warning aircraft with a strong endurance. However, the AWACS aircraft has one of the biggest drawbacks, its cruising speed is slow, and in general, there are no attack weapons on board, and its self-defense capability is weak. Therefore, if it encounters an AWACS aircraft, our anti-aircraft artillery can completely deal with it. As long as their AWACS aircraft are taken down, so that they cannot pass our coordinates back, our whereabouts will not be revealed. ”

"But AWACS aircraft generally do not fly at low altitudes, and I am afraid that our anti-aircraft artillery will not be able to threaten them at all. The general manager raised his own questions again.

"I bet that if the AWACS aircraft of the M people really found us, they would definitely provoke us, and they hated to shave off our hair with their wings. Our anti-aircraft artillery is accurate one by one. Zhao Changshu said confidently.

"But can't they use the ship's radar or satellites to locate us?" asked the general again. When he was with Zhao Changlan, he felt that he was too far behind Brother Gun. He knew that although Zhao Changshu did not have a high diploma, his knowledge, especially about military weapons, was very broad, and on the one hand, it depended on Zhao Changlan's professional study in the devil's training camp, and on the other hand, Zhao Changshu paid great attention to collecting information in this area.

Now I always want Brother Gun to give him a good science popularization.

Of course, Zhao Changshu would not spare his military knowledge, so he patiently explained to the general: "In the vast sea, the search ability of warships is limited, the reason is very simple, the earth is round, more than eighty kilometers below the sea level, even the most powerful Aegis system SPY-1, the detection distance of the sea surface is only a few tens of kilometers. Therefore, if country M wants to use warships to find us, it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, and a blind cat will touch a dead mouse. ”

"What about satellites? Could it be that the spy satellites of country M cannot locate our freighters? But I have heard that the spy satellites of country M are so powerful that they can even shoot the eyelashes of people on the ground. The general asked again.

"Hehe, in fact, for a long time, people have mythologized satellites. You know, satellites have orbits in space, they can only shoot things within the orbit range, and satellites are very susceptible to clouds, and their ability to identify false targets is not enough. The kind of satellite you are talking about is a low-orbit satellite, but the monitoring area of a low-orbit satellite is very small, and when it flies low, it is naturally close to it. The most important thing is that the detection time of low-orbit satellites is very short, they will soon fly over the monitoring area, and when they circle back, we will be gone. Zhao Changshu said with a smile.

At this time, the little brother had already walked over with a dozen beers, opened a can of beer and handed it to Zhao Changlan, and said with a smile: "So, you were just scaring our brother!"

Zhao Changlan poured a sip of beer and said, "There are no absolutes in everything. If country M is really determined to find us, they still have a lot of means. If we directly meet the M** ship, there will really be only one dead end! Therefore, in order to take precautions, we still have to make a little preparation. ”

After Zhao Changshu finished speaking, he ordered several things in a row. First of all, he cut off all contact with the outside world and sealed all satellite phones and radio stations. So as not to let country M capture their information.

Then Zhao Changshu instructed the brothers to take out one hundred and eight anti-aircraft guns from the cabin, fix them on the deck, and cover them with canvas.

Eventually, Zhao asked his brothers to be vigilant and report anything unusual to him as soon as they noticed anything.

After receiving the order, he immediately put down the beer can in his hand and began to organize the brothers to complete the task that Brother Gun had just ordered.

Zhao Changshu stood up, looked up at the gradually darkening sky, and muttered, "I hope my worries are unnecessary, maybe the arrogant Yankees won't make a big deal out of my little queen, right?"

Zhao Changshu walked into the cockpit, stood in front of a nautical map, pointed to a sea area with his finger, and said to the second officer who was on duty in the cockpit: "Adjust the course and get close to this sea area!"

In addition to the brothers of the Dragon Society and the members of the PetroChina delegation, there were six senior seafarers on the Queen, who held important positions such as first officer, second officer, third officer, and chief engineer.

Zhao Changshu has followed Li Chaotian in Linhe Province since he was a teenager, and Li Chaotian's biggest economic source is to run ocean shipping, and make a fortune by smuggling cars.

Later, due to the state's strict investigation of smuggling, and China's shipping business also showed a downward trend, Zhao Changshu left the sea and followed Li Chaotian to concentrate on fighting the world in Linhe Province. Later, Li Chaotian sent Zhao Changshu to the devil's training camp for special training, and he systematically learned navigation knowledge, so he was qualified for the position of captain.

Therefore, the captain of Zhao Changshu is worthy of his name, and Mr. Qian did not impulsively let him serve as the captain of the "Queen" freighter.

However, the brothers of the General and Poison Dragon Society cannot be compared with Zhao Changlan, although they have all been trained as seafarers, but their seafaring level can only be ordinary seafarers, and they are not qualified for these important professional positions at all.

As a result, six senior seafarers were hired on board. These six senior seafarers are not ordinary people, each of them is a retired soldier of the Chinese Navy, not only familiar with navigational knowledge, but also very good at naval warfare, but because they need to drive ships, they cannot go to war when fighting.

The second mate on the Queen was a middle-aged man of forty-five or sixteen years old, with a thin figure and short hair, and his face was a little red because he had been adrift at sea all the year round, and the sea breeze had blown too much. When he heard Zhao Changshu's words, he looked at the place where Zhao Changshu pointed out on the navigation map, and he couldn't help but be surprised in his heart!

Because he found that the place pointed by Zhao's spear turned out to be the source of the Pacific storm, which is called the gate of hell! There, there is not a single day of calm in the 365 days of a year, and almost every day there are turbid waves and typhoons raging, and legend has it that more than 60 percent of the typhoons that blow from the Pacific Ocean originate from there, and then enter the mainland along the boundless Pacific Ocean, causing disaster to the world.

On top of that, there is a strong geomagnetic field that not only disables all electromagnetic signals, but also interferes with all the electronics on board, rendering the entire ship inoperable.

Driving the boat there is a dead end! Even if a sturdy ship gets there, it will be a dead end.

Therefore, the second mate immediately objected to Zhao Changshu's words, and said loudly to Zhao Changshu: "No! That sea area is too dangerous! We have only a dead end for the freighter to drive there!"

An inexplicable smile appeared on Zhao Changlan's face and said, "Second mate, you're wrong. I asked you to drive the boat there, precisely so that everyone could survive. ”

"Why?" the second officer didn't understand what Zhao Changshu meant.

"If we want to completely avoid the Pacific Fleet of country M, we can only go from there! Do you think the Pacific Fleet of country M is powerful, or is it a storm. Zhao Changshu said again.

"Do you think that the warships of country M will not dare to go to the gates of hell?" said the second officer-for-tat.

Zhao Changshu smiled and said: "I drove the ship there, not to get rid of the warships of country M, but to make them completely unable to find us." Besides, I just let you get close to that area, and I didn't let you say we're going to enter that area. ”
