Chapter 371: Shipwreck Treasure
If you want to talk about the treasures under the sea, Wu Chen's memory is still relatively clear, before the soul travels through time and space, many shipwreck treasures are no longer secrets, and some famous shipwrecks have been salvaged. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe wreck of the Lady Atoka, for example, turned a family into a billionaire with a total value of more than $400 million.
The golden fleet of the Spanish Empire was silent in the Gulf of Vigo, and it is a conclusive fact that there are rumors of thousands of tons of gold and countless jewels. Fifteen hundred famous paintings in the apartment in Munich, Germany, the gold rush ship sunk off the coast of Panama, the shipwreck of the San Jose in the waters of Colombia, and the shipwreck of the Sussex in the Strait of Gibraltar have all been confirmed to exist.
There are also some ethereal legends, such as the famous Nazi golden train, which weighed three hundred tons of gold alone, and the Tsar Treasure, which is said to be hidden at the bottom of Lake Baikal, which contained about 1,600 tons of gold, and as for whether it is true or not, it is not known.
"Boss, I absolutely agree with your plan, when I was drinking with the top brass of the US Navy last night, I mentioned that we can sell ten Austin-class dock landing ships and three Anchorage-class dock-type landing ships, as well as four Newport-class tank landing ships, and we can transfer an Austin-class dock landing ship and an Anchorage-class dock landing ship as a base, with large lifting equipment on them, capable of parking helicopters."
"In addition, we can equip an electronic reconnaissance ship to cover people's eyes and ears, which is also the main means of carrying out preliminary search from the sea surface, prepare two modified ballistic missile nuclear submarines as the main means of detecting the deep sea, install the world's most advanced detection instruments on them, and prepare two attack nuclear submarines as an armed defense force." Marcus said excitedly.
Damn, that's what I just said, you're going to make a big stance, is this really good? But on second thought, it's good for you to do it, and it won't cost much anyway, and finding a wreck is enough to pay for it.
"Isn't this an extra move, how troublesome it is to modify a nuclear submarine, it will take at least half a year, Russia has two famous manned deep submersibles from the former Soviet Union, as well as underwater robots, isn't it over borrowing them for the time being? Time is golden, you can start work in a week at most, and you can dream a lot at night! ”
"You directly drive the landing ship and electronic reconnaissance ship to the Strait of Gibraltar, I order the Seawolf 1 and Seawolf 2 to be responsible for protection, and then transfer the two Akula-class attack nuclear submarines K-295 and K-157, and we will start with the Sussex shipwreck."
"The deepest part of the Strait of Gibraltar is more than 1,100 meters, and the difficulty of exploration is not very high, remember, this matter is strictly confidential, Spain and Britain are fighting fiercely for this, and I don't want to provoke these two countries for the time being. Grass, this numbering is too messy, take the time to change the names of all the warships and nuclear submarines of the Navy in the future! Wu Chen said.
Since he has decided to do it, he must do his best, he wants the treasures under the sea, and he also wants the treasures on the ground. The memories that had been left in my mind were of great help this time, and I effortlessly aimed at the first target, and the difficulty was almost zero.
"Valia, you immediately send a group of elites to Munich, Germany, to find the son of Gurlit, the original collector of famous paintings, and then quietly follow him to a dilapidated apartment, where you will find me fifteen hundred famous paintings, and send them to the secret room of the Sestopol fortress. But the agents are not to disturb him, and they are not to do him any harm, and the purpose of our work is to seek money, not to kill people. Wu Chen commanded.
In the naval sequence of the Golden Triangle mercenary corps, there is an unknown nuclear submarine force in the world, the largest in the world, and even the United States and Russia do not know the number of horrors. Or in standard parlance, it should be the largest second-hand nuclear submarine force in the world, because none of them are newly manufactured by themselves, all of them are second-hand.
There are 14 Akula-class attack nuclear submarines, six Typhoon-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines, 30 Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarines, 10 Ohio-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines, eight Oscar-class cruise missile nuclear submarines, four Sierra class attack nuclear submarines, six Alpha-class attack nuclear submarines, two Seawolf-class attack nuclear submarines, and one Papa-class cruise missile nuclear submarine, totaling 81.
Nuclear submarines are busy upgrading, replacing more advanced electronic equipment, replacing new silencing tiles, replacing weapon systems, and docking with the Atlantis satellite navigation system in space.
Except for the two types of nuclear submarines, the Seawolf class and the Typhoon class, the rest of the nuclear submarines have always had nothing to do, and there are more than 10,000 nuclear submarine officers and men idle, most of whom are nuclear submarine officers and men of the former Soviet Union.
The salary of the mercenary corps is very high, and the salary of the nuclear submarine is even higher, but the problem is that just taking a high salary and not working, sitting in the port every day in the sun, and hurting these guys' idle eggs, after a long time, everyone is not happy, can't you give some tasks?
At Cam Ranh Bay Naval Base, two Akula-class attack nuclear submarines that had just been launched for two years and three years respectively received orders from the headquarters and immediately set off for India to join the Seawolf 1 and Seawolf 2 attack nuclear submarines, and then sail for the Strait of Gibraltar.
"Commander, what about us, there are more than 40 nuclear submarines that have not been upgraded and refitted, why don't you assign us tasks, this seems a little unreasonable, right?" The commander of the Oscar-class cruise missile nuclear submarine formation was very dissatisfied and said to Commander Flore.
"This is the boss's instructions, I can only obey them, and besides, there are no actual combat tasks at the moment, why are you sending so many nuclear submarines out, it's a pure waste of money! So, you pick a squad of twelve operators, I have a different task schedule, remember, it must be a veteran who can absolutely keep secrets. Flor said.
Marcas's constant demands for the purchase of naval vessels, especially those that were about to be decommissioned and those that had already been mothballed, were warmly welcomed by the top brass of the Navy and then sold him one ship after another for scrap iron.
Maybe it was sold too much, or maybe it was blinded by those huge interests, and until now, even the decommissioned Strong-class monitoring ships have been sold, and the Victory-class catamaran monitoring ships that are in service have been sold two.
The Victory monitoring ship and two dock landing ships, handed over to the Navy of the Golden Triangle Mercenary Corps, quickly sailed to the port of Tangier, and took off an Il-76 transport plane from the fortress of Sestopol, and airlifted a company of marines to the port, with the task of securing the three ships.
The Marines are a new branch of the mercenary corps, and the interests between countries are important, in order to prevent Ukolan from breaking away from the control of the Golden Triangle Federation, or the Russian government turning its face and denying people, and the idea of attacking the Crimean region.
Navy Commander Denis began recruiting locally two years ago and officially formed the Marine Corps, which is now about the size of a brigade combat team and continues to expand. For this reason, Marcas specially purchased 160 Sea Knight helicopters from the US Navy to achieve the purpose of rapid mobile operations.
