Chapter 440: The Romanticism of the Warship
What's the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Gallic chickens? Maybe the first thing that comes to your mind is something like Sophie. A hot beauty like Marceau, or a strike in various industries that is as punctual as menstruation.
Well, putting aside these ridicules, the Gallic chicken is also one of the five permanent members, and since 2011, Yaya has sent troops to intervene in Côte d'Ivoire, Libya, Mali, Central Africa and other African countries. People are very familiar with driving a jeep to bully Uncle Black, and they are really domineering and domineering on the African continent.
To say that as such a military power, it can also be used for aircraft, tanks, aircraft mothers, and nuclear submarines. Speaking of which, you must think that the Gallic chickens are a little more reliable than the third brother sticks when they build equipment, but they are not all reliable. As a nation that can be fitted to the turn signal lever of a car's horn button, the romantic French will always add a little bit of strange attributes to various advanced equipment.
As the captain of the "Mistral"-class amphibious assault ship L9013, Hu Zixiao felt that he had been killed by a Gallic chicken pit at this moment. The original Mistral-class amphibious assault ships of the Gallic Chicken were armed with only two 30-mm machine guns, four 12.7-mm heavy machine guns, and two Mistral individual anti-aircraft missile launchers.
And the L9013 ship that the "director team" allocated to Hu Zixiao was especially dismantled by the "director team" with two 30mm machine guns, which is why Hu Zixiao and they quickly ran to China after they found themselves in the waters near Cam Ranh Bay. Big brother, the monkey has Russian-made 3M-80MBE "Sandfly" anti-ship missiles, why don't you even have a close-in defense weapon system for me, don't I have to spread my feet and run away!
I don't know what the romantic Gallic chicken thought when designing this amphibious assault ship, although the amphibious assault ships of various military powers are not known for their firepower, but in the 21st century, when anti-ship missiles are flooded with Nyima, you dare to go out without even bringing close defense weapons, which is too romantic, dear!
However, on this "Mistral" class amphibious assault ship, the Gallic Chicken not only has a strange design that is not equipped with a close defense weapon system, but also a ship with a standard displacement of 16,500 tons, and has come up with a three-deck design for the Gallic Chicken. Is this Nima still a warship, this hull is as tall as a civilian ro-ro ship, okay!?
If you don't have a ship of 20,000 tons, why do you have a three-deck center of gravity, how can there be any seaworthiness!? This design is designed to catch up with the "Ticonderoga" class destroyers of the Eagle Sauce family.
The center of gravity is high, the seaworthiness is poor, what should I do, the method given by the Gallic chicken is to reduce the speed, Lao Tzu's maximum speed is eighteen knots, and there will be nothing wrong with this seaworthiness is almost a little bit.
Looking at the empty deck, and then looking at the speed of less than 18 knots to the limit, Hu Zixiao could only pray in his heart that the monkey's missile frigate would not target his ship. The Mistral-class amphibious assault ship with the port number L9013 did not have a single fighter on board, and except for the two LCAC air-cushion landing craft, all Nima in the cabin was aviation fuel, and it was blown up one by one. Once this is hit by an anti-ship missile, there is absolutely no chance of survival.
"Hurry up and call the green paint area, if there are no reinforcements, I'm afraid all of our 150 people will have to hang here." Hu Zixiao said to the communications soldier.
However, before the communications corps could contact the green paint area, several boats with thick black smoke rushed out from the direction of Cam Ranh Bay. I rub! How lazy must this monkey's crew be, this boiler must not be maintained for 180 years before this kind of black smoke can emit, Hu Zi smiled and thought to himself as he looked at the ships emitting thick black smoke in the distance.
"Sir, those ships are gunboats!" The sailor in charge of watching reported to Hu Zixiao.
"Speed?" Hu Zixiao asked nervously.
"It's about sixteen verses. Well, they are flying the flag of Maozi! The sailor replied.
Hearing the sailor's words, Hu Zixiao was blindfolded at that time, when he was teleported, Mao Zi had already returned Cam Ranh Bay to the monkeys, how could there be a warship flying the Mao Zi flag in this vicinity?
Crossed, we crossed! Although I don't know the exact date now, the time must have been sometime before Maozi returned Cam Ranh Bay to the monkeys in 2004.
I can't care so much, let's go back to Huaxia first, before 2004, a "Northwest Wind" class amphibious assault ship was a generous gift to rabbits, as for whether our No. 150 people will be pulled to slice that is another matter, Hu Zixiao thought to himself.
"Sir, those Maozi warships seem to be coal-burning, and they are estimated to be one or two knots less than us, so they shouldn't be able to catch up." After carefully observing the warships of Maozi for a few minutes, the sailor came to the above conclusion.
"Damn, it turned out to be a coal burner, I said why is this smoke so thick. Hurry up to the territory of China, we can't afford to provoke even a coal-burning ship, we have even dismantled our 30-mm machine guns, and we don't even have a carrier-based helicopter. Well, wait, coal-burning warships? So Huaxia is still talking about the Qing Dynasty, oh my god, I can't go to the northeast! Bearded laugh suddenly remembered that there would be no rabbit for him to run away to.
Fortunately, the rough embryos of the 38th Task Force had just been transmitted, and not long after they were transmitted, they still had mobile phones in their hands, and they used the radio to call the transmitted personnel as soon as they received the text message from the "director team".
"This is Task Force 38 in the Green Paint Zone, call all combat units, please answer if you receive it." Task Force 38, which cruised the waters off Batavia, was not far from the waters of Cam Ranh Bay, and their radio signals did not need to be refracted through the ionosphere to reach them.
"This is Mistral One, receiving a call from Task Force 38." Hu Zixiao almost cried with joy after hearing the signal from the Green Paint Zone Fleet, and anyone who drove a ship that was ostensibly an amphibious assault ship but was actually an oil tanker was chased by a gunboat.
"Northwest Wind One, please explain your situation." Yang Guang said on the radio.
"We are piloting a Mistral-class amphibious assault ship with little self-defense capability and full of aviation fuel, which is currently near Cam Ranh Bay and is being pursued by four gunboats flying the Maozi flag." Hu Zixiao explained the situation to Yang Guang briefly and concisely.
"Don't go any further northeast, northeast is John Bull's Far Eastern Fleet. Find a way to go around to the south, we are in the direction of Jakarta in the afterlife, we will rush to your side now! Yang Guang said.
Hearing Yang Guang's words, Hu Zixiao almost cried, this second-deck "Northwest Wind"-class amphibious assault ship full of aviation fuel is one or two knots faster than Maozi's ship to the limit, and now it suddenly wants to turn its head to the south, who knows if it will be blocked by Maozi's other ships.
How could 4 12.7mm machine guns and individual anti-aircraft missiles do anything with gunboats, and there is also this belly of aviation fuel, even if they encounter a little Mars, their 150 people will have to take a dirt plane to the sky. The British, who also had bad intentions in the northeast, could only gamble in the direction of the 38th Task Force, and the bearded man gritted his teeth and gave the captain the order to turn.
