Chapter 81: Deterrence at Sea

"Twenty nautical miles west of Chiba Island, an unknown ship has been discovered, and this ship is calling us on the radio frequencies, Your Excellency, do you want to answer?" a young man with a straight posture and a somewhat officer-like head reported to Heihachiro Hara in a low voice in Japanese.

"Miki, has this ship taken the initiative to identify itself?" Haraji Heihachiro replied casually in Japanese with a slight movement of his still stiff right arm.

The young man named Miki said softly: "It is reported that they call themselves the Chinese Navy in English. ”

Hara Heihachiro turned over and sat up, and said, "Chinese Navy, did you hear me right?"

"Yes, Your Excellency. "But for so many years, I have never heard of the activities of Chinese naval vessels in the Pacific waters, and it is possible that there is a mistake in the translation." ”

Haraji Heihachiro suddenly waved his hand, and a trace of disdain immediately appeared on his face: "The Shina Navy is very weak, you just pretend not to hear it." "Time has entered the new century, and the Japanese who dominated Chiba Island still uses the name of World War II, for the simple reason that his family came to Chiba Island during World War II and has never returned to Japan since then.

"Yes, I also think they might be passing by. Miki respectfully withdrew from the room, and Haraji Heihachiro seemed to think again, but soon lay down again, and after a while, he suddenly got up in his clothes and walked out into the courtyard.

The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and today, like every ordinary night in Chiba Island, there is nothing unusual.

To be honest, not to mention a warship, even if a fleet came to Chiba Island, he was not afraid at all. Later, due to the defeat in the Battle of Midway, several ships under his grandfather's command were damaged by bullets and drifted to this deserted island, self-taught pirate raids, this remnant actually thrived on Chiba Island. After a long time, no one ever mentioned the idea of returning to the mainland, so the entire Chiba Island was also preserved in accordance with the military system of World War II, and until now, Chiba Island is still a large and well-organized military camp, and the original Heihachiro family has been a general since his grandfather, and he still has a hereditary position as a general.

Not to mention, although Hara Heihachiro still formally followed the old military system, but his mind is extremely avant-garde, especially in the last ten or twenty years, under his "excellent" leadership, Chiba Island has not only become a modern military base, but also a cash cow with rolling money, through a variety of "extraordinary means" The most important thing is that Chiba Island, which has been in the depths of the ocean for a long time, is no stranger to modern weapons, and Hara Heihachiro himself likes military affairs, and is good at cultivating and collecting talents, and now Chiba Island has weapons that almost all other countries have, including missiles: surface-to-air missiles, surface-to-surface missiles, and shore-to-ship missiles. Not to mention all kinds of tanks, artillery and anti-aircraft guns, the entire Chiba Island watchtower bunker is dotted like a copper wall, worthy of the name of the impregnable one. In recent years, countless sharp eyes have been added to Chiba Island, and radars on the sea, air, and ground abound, and the effective detection distance can reach more than 200 nautical miles, and the situation in the Dragon Delta can be seen at a glance.

Haraji Heihachiro behaved calmly, not conceitedly, but self-confidence with enough capital.

At present, he has several tiger generals under his command, one is Brigadier General Yuda, commander-in-chief of the garrison, the other is the chief of operations Naji Osa, and the other is the director of intelligence, Tomono Osa, and Miki Shaosa, an operational staff officer who graduated from Japan's "West Point Military Academy," is also a talent worth cultivating.

His greatest wish at present is that the four Apache helicopter gunships that have just been transported to the island and assembled can be equipped with combat capability as soon as possible, and due to the geographical constraints of Chiba Island, it has always been his greatest heart and regret; otherwise, today he will far surpass his ancestors, achieve more brilliant achievements, and it seems that it is not difficult to establish himself as a king and establish a country of Chiba or something.

Of course, these are just ideals, he wants to leave some unfinished business to do, so as not to be idle in the prime of life, plus there is no war all year round, he actually deliberately slowed down the pace of military construction on Chiba Island. Today, he suddenly heard that a warship was passing by, and he really wanted that this was a provocation, so that Chiba Island could "set off fireworks" to test the actual combat capability of this military base.

However, when he heard that it was only a Chinese warship, he was really disappointed.

For the inferior people of "China", he also inherited the concepts of his grandfather and father well, and his mind was full of inexplicable contempt.

Well, learning Chinese is an exception, because almost all the Japanese soldiers who wanted to invade China could speak Chinese, and he himself was extremely talented and surprisingly good. In fact, more importantly, almost all of his commercial trade was handed over to the group of Chinese Yankees in Guan Jindao, and it was indeed troublesome to not speak Chinese.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Hara Jiheihachiro wandered around the yard aimlessly, returned to the house and lay down for more than half an hour, I don't know if it was the cause of the arm pain, he was particularly excited today, and he couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, and then he finally understood that there was a fire in his heart, and he was a little uncomfortable.

So he picked up the special telephone in the house, dialed a special line, and soon, the young man named Miki hurried over.

Before Miki could gain a firm foothold, Haraji Heihachiro asked impatiently, "Is that warship still there?"

Miki was a little confused, today General Hara seemed to be a little abnormal, he said cautiously: "Still drifting in the west, and calling us continuously on high frequencies, we follow the orders of His Excellency the General and ignore them." ”

"Good, good. Hara Jiheihachiro seemed to be talking to himself, and he didn't know what he was saying, and then muttered, "Raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while." Out of nowhere, he popped up such a Chinese saying, which in Japanese confused Miki.

But Miki is not stupid, he saw that there seemed to be a raging flame burning in the eyes of the eighth master, he didn't dare to speak casually, and the strict hierarchy told him that it was best not to speak at this time.

Not long after, Hara Heihachiro said slowly: "Miki, pass my order to let the Yoshino Flying Squadron send an Apache helicopter gunship to fly over this warship for reconnaissance. ”

"Yes. Miki replied, but didn't move.

Haraji Heihachiro looked at him coldly and said angrily: "What's the matter, don't you go to deploy immediately?"

"Your Excellency...... Our helicopters have not yet conducted flight experiments, and it is now night, will it ...... to land in the sky over other countries' warships?" Miki said again.

This time, Heihachiro Hara didn't blame him, he wasn't an unreasonable person.

"It's a good opportunity to train. He paused, "However, you also have a point in reminding you, in order to make sure that nothing goes wrong, one-third of the missile fire control radar is aimed at the warship, and some of the missiles are put into combat readiness." The long-lost war gene seemed to crawl into the heart of the militarist descendant in an instant, his eyes shining, and he was full of thirsty and bloodthirsty wolf nature.

Miki was one of the few staff officers on Chiba Island who had left the island to participate in military exchanges and studies, and he was a little shocked when he heard this arrangement, not so much scared, but worried.

As the chief operational staff officer, he felt the need to remind: "Your Excellency, the fire control radar aimed at the opposing warship is generally equivalent to a military attack in the international community...... Think again. Miki said respectfully.

Haraji Heihachiro looked at the young man with a strange sense of pleasure as he looked at the young man's unnecessary nervousness.

"Why, are you still afraid of a warship in China?" he sneered, "even if we sink this warship, will the people of China still dare to come to the door? Strictly speaking, this warship has seriously violated international law by entering the contiguous zone of Chiba Island without permission, thus posing a threat to Chiba Island. ”

Miki also has a bit of military rigidity and straightforwardness, he said without humility or arrogance: "Your Excellency General, as far as I know, although the Chinese Navy is not strong today, it is no longer the Beiyang Naval Division of the past, I am afraid that this warship is not acting alone, it is very likely to be one of a certain formation, and according to international law, they can also pass through Chiba Island harmlessly, please be cautious." ”

"Well, let me think about it. Haraji Heihachiro is also a reasonable person, he knows that Miki has some truth, he thinks for a moment, or said, "I decided, let's give it a try." Helicopter gunships took advantage of this opportunity to conduct night training, and fire control radar irradiation was also carried out normally, and the warships of China should have taken the initiative to evacuate if they had passed through this place on a routine basis. In addition, in order to prevent accidents, we turned on the long-range detection radar and searched the sea area within 200 nautical miles of Chiba Island, and reported the search situation to me in a moment. ”

"Yes. This time, Miki simply agreed, and then quickly exited the courtyard to deploy the operation.

Haraji Heihachiro rubbed his face vigorously, feeling hot, just like the fire in his heart, scorching his face and ears, and the days without opponents were too lonely and boring.

About an hour later, Heihachiro Haraji, who was still standing in the courtyard looking up at the clear night sky, heard a rush of footsteps behind him, he didn't look back, and looked at the bright moon in the sky with a calm face, he liked this cold feeling very much.

It was still Miki, but now he looked a little flustered.

"Your Excellency, long-range radar has detected a large fleet 100 nautical miles away from Chiba Island...... According to the comprehensive research and judgment of Intelligence Minister Tomono Daisa, it is very likely to be an aircraft carrier battle group. After saying these words, there was also a faint sweat oozing from Miki's forehead.

"What!Aircraft carrier battle group?" Haraji Heihachiro looked back in amazement, he looked at Miki's slightly curved figure, and felt an inexplicable tremor in his right hand.

Haraji Heihachiro didn't speak again for a long time, and Miki didn't dare to say anything.

"Blah. Hara Heihachiro suddenly scolded a foul word, "We probably fell for that stinky!"

Miki naturally understood what he meant, and he said with a little hesitation: "A girl who is so young is probably not capable of mobilizing such a large fleet......"

"You're right, there must be someone else behind this incident, the old immortal...... He must have been deceiving him behind his back!" Haraji Heihachiro suddenly calmed down, his face became more and more gloomy, this time not surprised, but with some kind of determination.

"The ministries were notified that the fire control radar was suspended, the helicopter gunship canceled its night mission, and the radio remained silent. Haraji Heihachiro commanded in a low voice.

"Yes, Your Excellency. Miki hurriedly prepared to go out.

Hara Heihachiro suddenly shouted, "Wait." ”

Miki stopped and turned around, only to hear Haraji Heihachiro say behind him: "Call that woman who doesn't want to die, I want to hear her explanation." ”
