Sea Fortress (END)
On an island off the coast of the Empire, a figure of great importance to the Empire has arrived.
With the sound of helicopter wings waving, a large gunship, covered in bullet marks, landed on the island's only helicopter landing platform.
Ulyanko Varich, the designer of the Allied ship who had been waiting here for a long time, quickly stepped forward and opened the engine room of the helicopter, and shouted into the engine room in a mouthful of broken Mandarin.
"Mo Guijiao! Get out of here with that bullshit supercomputer of yours! The whole construction team has been waiting for you all day, and the old lady is impatient, if you come an hour late, believe it or not, I will skip the installation of the supercomputer. β
As the door of the helicopter was opened, a girl in a white lab coat with a ponytail and a look of no more than a teenager poked her head out of the helicopter, frowning and pouting, showing a look of annoyance.
"What's the hurry, will the supercomputer be installed in a moment and a half? Take me to see how you've built? β
With that, he grabbed Warrich's hand and trotted out of the airport.
After a while, Mo Guijiao pulled Waric to appear in front of a rock wall on the island, looked up at the white swan feathers inserted in the rock wall, and Mo Guijiao used his elbow to slap the panting Waric beside him.
"It seems that I am not mistaken, this is it, let your stinky lady open the door, I am going to see my family's first battleship."
I didn't get dizzy on such a complicated road, I thought I was lost in the grove more than once, did this guy have a computer in his head?
While calming his rapid breathing, Waric re-examined Mo Guijiao from head to toe, "In the damp and muddy woods, you have been a marathon runner for the past three years, holding others up for a few kilometers without even breathing, you have been a marathon runner for the past three years?" β
Hearing this, Mo Guijiao showed a displeased expression on his face, and looked at Waric with his hands clasped in front of his chest and disdain: "How can we complete the cause given to us by the state without a good body?" But you, where is the strong physique that you trained as a chief in Africa, your dark and shiny complexion and biceps? β
"Holy! You stay in this kind of hellish place where the sun can't shine and play on the computer for three years! The old lady finally got a healthy complexion, do you accompany me? β
Just as the two of them were fighting each other, the ground under their feet began to tremble slightly, and a large square iron house slowly broke through the dirt and came out of the ground.
As the door of the iron house was opened from the inside, a tall and pale girl appeared in front of the two, the girl frowned and covered the not dazzling sunlight with her hands, and said to a pair of enemies outside the door with an expressionless face.
"It's been a long time since I've seen Mo Guijiao, the two of you have just met and you're fighting so hotly, it's really a couple of Internet couples in love, I'm going to go down if I sprinkle dog food again, I'm going to build a ship outfit soon, don't you want to take a look?"
The two who were still arguing a moment ago immediately stopped arguing and walked into the iron house.
"Every time I see this elevator like an iron bump, I want to complain, can't you install a window or something to breathe Hanlin?"
"Where have you ever seen a window and a window?" Han Lin squinted his eyes and glanced at Mo Guijiao, said in a flat tone, and closed the elevator door by the way.
Mo Guijiao touched the back of her head with an embarrassed face and said, "Uh...... It seems to be ......"
Waric covered his mouth with his hands, desperately holding back his laughter.
The elevator slammed to the ground after a loud and violent shake.
"This elevator is still as uncomfortable as ever."
Waric stretched out his hand to help Mo Guijiao, who fell a dog eating under surprise, and said with a smile: "Ahem, I usually work hard in the dock, and I don't have time to go out to wave, so there is no one to repair the elevator if there is a small fault." β
"Didn't you say you were repairing when you came last time?"
"It was all three years ago, right?"
"That's really ......"
Just when Mo Guijiao was about to complain about this facility, the elevator door was suddenly opened, and the scene of the dock below suddenly met Mo Guijiao's eyes, and the huge battleship stood quietly in the dock like a castle.
The upper deck of the ship is sparsely loaded with a row of anti-aircraft guns, and there are also a number of anti-aircraft guns on the bridge like a hill of steel building blocks, giving the whole ship the feeling of a steel hedgehog.
Mo Guijiao, who was stunned by the appearance of the battleship, opened her mouth and said in disbelief: "This can't be regarded as a battleship anymore!" It's like a fortress suspended in the sea! β
"There is nothing wrong with you saying this, the actual length of this ship is 1,214 meters, the widest part is 351 meters, the whole body is wrapped with at least 3 meters thick multi-layer alloy, the total tonnage in the unloaded state should be about 500,000 tons, and it is expected to reach 750,000 tons after full load.
The firepower on the upper deck was now set at 48 8-mm anti-aircraft guns with 40-mm characteristics, 24 203-mm twin-turn close-in guns, three 440-mm quadruple main guns in the bow and stern, and one 640-mm four-gun on each side of the bridge.
In addition to the naval guns you see on the surface of the ship, we also reserved 12 conventional missile silos on the front deck of the battleship, four modified silos, and a nuclear weapon launcher and large reconnaissance and anti-submarine equipment on the rear deck, and not only that, but we also ............"
βstopοΌβ
Mo Guijiao stretched out her hand to cover Warridge's gushing narration, and after a little tidying up her language, she shouted: "To put it simply, this guy is a mobile heavy gunboat, or the kind with super thick armor." β
Han Lin, who was leading the way in front, turned his head to look at Mo Guijiao after hearing the words, and then turned his head again.
Waric touched his head in embarrassment, and glanced at Mo Guijiao with a somewhat evasive gaze: "Haven't you seen all the design drawings before?" β
Mo Guijiao frowned when she heard this, and waved her hand indifferently, revealing an expression of no interest at all: "That thing can't be understood at all, is it for people to see?" β
Varich wiped the cold sweat from his head when he heard this: "Do you know why we asked to load a supercomputer on this ship?" β
"How do I know what you want that thing for?"
Varich stretched out his hand and gestured and explained: "If you just automate all the guns on the battleship, you can use some large computers or even small computers, but ...... The ship has more than just guns, 12 torpedo tubes are hidden at the bow waterline, and inside the ship there is a kilometer-long flight deck that can take off five to six fighters at the same time.
The supercomputer is controlled by the ship's accurate guns, and at the same time, it can also make the aircraft take off and land normally at all times. β
"I'll go, are you building a shipbuilding or building China's high-speed rail? Use my computer as a shock absorber, but if that's the case, wouldn't the ship be broken into the sky? β
Waric shook his head helplessly: "I want to too, but there is no perfect thing in the world, and this ship also has shortcomings."
Even if we change her power system to nuclear power, this guy can only reach a theoretical speed of 23 nautical miles, and only 14 nautical miles at most when fully loaded, and the underwater part is 38 meters when unloaded, and there is no dock in the world where she can dock when fully loaded, including here. β
ββββββββββββββββ
After straightening out his navy uniform, Yang Ran took a deep breath, relieved his nervousness, and strode into the car that came to meet him.
Just now, Yang Ran received an order from the military department to go to the port to take over another warship.
He had just established a good relationship with the sailors and soldiers on his ship, and before he had time to go to sea with his own ship, he was transferred to another battleship as a captain, although compared to the logistics supply ship he was serving in now, he would have a greater chance of becoming the captain of the first series battleship of the Empire, but the risks he had to face were also greater than when he was the captain of the supply ship.
And the new employee who has only been on the job for a long time has been promoted and raised without doing anything, which is also a little too strange, you must know that when you just received the order, everyone looked at their eyes, and it was clear that she was the illegitimate daughter of an important member of the military department.
"But then again, what will the battleship that I'm about to take office look like?"
When Yang Ran fantasized about the shape of the battleship that was about to become his partner, the car Yang Ran was in slowly drove into a remote port.
As the car door opened, Yang Ran immediately saw the ship docked at the seashore.
Thin and small, dilapidated and unmaintained for a long time, with a fishing net hanging on the side of the boat, this is a dilapidated fishing boat in disrepair, is his own boat is this dilapidated fishing boat that does not know if it can withstand the waves lapping?
The battleship, which was far from the battleship he imagined, made Yang Ran turn into a stone statue the moment he saw the ship.
Wait, it's a joke, right? Promoted me to be the captain of a dilapidated fishing boat, is this deliberately targeting me, Yang? β¦β¦ Could it be that he provoked the big man who didn't change his mind in the military department before, and was brought here to deal with it secretly, right?
Yang Ran looked at the empty environment on the dock, and his heart couldn't help beating violently, if he was wiped off in such a deserted place, as long as the charge was deducted to the heads of the group of candidates who came out of nowhere, I believe no one would doubt it.
Yang Ran couldn't help but lock his neck when he thought of this.
"Commander, everyone is waiting for you."
Seeing Yang Ran get out of the car, she suddenly showed a look of loss, and the little girl who was in charge of picking up Yang Ran suddenly felt a little confused, and urged Yang Ran tentatively.
Who knew that the next moment, Yang Ran looked at the little girl with a strong expression and momentum of dying as a strong man: "Little sister, for the sake of me as a leftover girl who has not yet left the cabinet, you can just say it, did the military department let you come to silence, I, Yang Ran, have been loyal to the motherland all my life, and I have no complaints if I die, but I have to be a clear ghost." β
The little girl who was the driver was suddenly confused by Yang Ran's sudden situation, and said in an embarrassed head with a simple Kansai accent: "Commander, what are you doing, I'm from the countryside, I don't understand the commander's meaning." β
Hearing this, Yang Ran pointed to a fishing boat that had been parked at the dock next to him, which looked a little old: "A paper order transferred me to the first series fleet with the highest density of national aircraft as the captain, but it turned out to bring me to such a ship, this is obviously to secretly execute me Yang someone and then die in the rhythm of the sea." β
"Commander, are you still humorous, and the imagination of the people in the city is as rich as that of the commander?" When the driver heard this, his facial expression suddenly twisted strangely, and he desperately held back his laughter, and said to Yang Ran, who had a puzzled expression: "Sister Commander, you think too much, our boat is too big, this port is too shallow to fit the boat, I just found a fishing boat to pick you up in a hurry, the commander feels shabby, just change the boat." β
The little girl of the driver took out the phone as she spoke, and pressed the number quickly, Yang Ran hurriedly stopped her when she saw this, and looked at the little brother of the driver with the expression of Western learning, while waiting to jump on the small fishing boat skillfully, without the slightest explanation of the little brother of the driver.
"There's no need to be so troublesome, I'm also an old captain who has been in the military department for seven or eight years, although I haven't been the captain of a big ship, but I know a little bit of basic knowledge, and the deepest waterline in the active warship is only 20 meters, I'm curious about what ship I will be assigned to serve."
The little girl in the driver opened her mouth and was about to continue explaining, but when she thought back to the way she looked when she saw the battleship, the commander couldn't believe that it was normal, didn't he? Anyway, when the commander sees the battleship, he will understand.
With the sound of a whistle, the little girl who drove the boat changed to a second and drove the small fishing boat slowly towards the deep sea.
Yang Ran lay on the guardrail of the small fishing boat and looked at the island on the sea in the distance in a daze, as the small fishing boat slowly approached the island, the expression on Yang Ran's face suddenly became as colorful as fireworks.
"This ship, this ship is also a little too big, isn't it?!!"
Yang Ran rubbed his eyes in disbelief, snapped the guardrail and straightened up, his two round eyes as if they were about to fall out.
The little girl who was driving the boat on the side shrugged her shoulders after seeing Yang Ran's expression, and also set her eyes on the battleship in front of her that needed to look up, revealing an inexplicable pride in her eyes.
And at the same time that Yang Ran was shocked by the huge size of the battleship, an escalator suddenly fell on the deck of this side facing Yang Ran's small boat, and a young woman in a white navy uniform walked out of the cabin, leaning on the base of a hideous giant cannon, and a lazy tone suddenly entered Yang Ran's ears.
"Captain don't sigh, the whole crew is waiting for you, now is not the time for you to be stunned, we have to rush to the predetermined sea area to participate in the operation."
"Huh? Oh......"
Yang Ran, who was stunned, hurriedly climbed up the escalator, and what made Yang Ran a little rushed was that the height of the ship was slightly unexpected, and it hadn't climbed to the deck after climbing for five or six minutes.
After another two minutes, Yang Ran, who was out of breath, finally climbed onto the deck of the giant ship before he could exert his last strength.
"Huhu...... This...... It's so tiring, it's incredible...... It's amazing that the Empire can build such a big ship......"
"Isn't it incredible? Before the commander arrived, the ship had just repelled a wave of the deep-sea fleet along the coastline...... Welcome, Commander, I'm the ship's vice-captain, Paran, a shrine maiden in the past, and I would like to ask for your attention. β
Looking at the charming smile of the girl in front of him, Yang Ran subconsciously stretched out his hand.
"I'm Yang Ran...... Thank you for your kind attention in the future. β
"The name sounds pretty good, okay, don't talk nonsense, since we're here, then it's time for us to go to the next deep-sea battlefield, there are really more and more weapons for those who don't know where they come from, it's really a headache; And you, don't let me down on the battlefield. β
βββββββββββββββββ
On the smoky sea, huge sea steel beasts are frantically spraying tongues of fire into the distance, and the deafening sound is continuous, like the sound of firecrackers during the New Year.
Among the steel behemoths, the sound of one of them has never stopped, and every three seconds, there will be a shocking bang, and the roar even overwhelms all the warships on the sea, and the tall silhouette of the extremely eye-catching gives this giant ship a sense of immediacy that stands out from the crowd.
And on the lookout platform of this steel giant ship like a hill, Yang Ran was anxiously pacing back and forth, and his tightly knit brows made it clear at a glance that the captain was preoccupied.
"Hasn't the Paran Deep Sea Fleet retreated yet?"
Standing aside and observing the Deep Sea Fleet with a lookout glass, the deputy captain of the Deep Sea Fleet, Palan, raised his head and looked at Yang Ran when he heard this, his eyes revealing helplessness.
"Is that so?"
As an old partner who has partnered with Palan for a long time, just a look from Palan, Yang Ran read the information he wanted from it.
Yang Ran took a deep breath and rubbed his temples that were a little swollen and painful: "How far is the Deep Sea Fleet from us. β
"The high-speed surface ships of the deep-sea fleet have exchanged fire with our destroyers, and the deep-sea of human and semi-humanoid figures has not yet been observed, however, observers have just reported that traces of deep-sea carrier-based aircraft have been discovered."
Deep-sea carrier-based aircraft? Yang Ran frowned and looked out the window, the gray weather was particularly depressing, and an ominous premonition surged into Yang Ran's heart.
"Pass the order down, resolve the battle as soon as possible, and the whole fleet quickly get out of this sea area, the sooner the better."
"I see, Captain."
Hearing this, Paran saluted Yang Ran with a naval salute, and then immediately ran to the communication station.
A moment later. The entire fleet heard the order from Yang Ran, and for a while, the naval guns were more densely projected towards the deep-sea fleet.
Under Yang Ran's gaze, several thin girls were suddenly buried by the naval guns, and it was not until there was no movement on the radar that Yang Ran ordered to stop the attack.
The worry of Ming'er music in Yang Ran's heart still did not dissipate, but became a little stronger.
At this moment, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the command room, and Yang Ran hurriedly looked at everyone in the command room.
A girl in military uniform, sitting in front of the electronic equipment in the command room, suddenly stood up in a panic. Xiang Yang Ran said eagerly: "Report, a torpedo was found thirty nautical miles on the starboard side, there are probably hundreds of torpedoes, what should the captain do!" β
Yang Ran was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly ran to the girl, pushed the girl away, and looked at the cursor displayed on the electronic device.
Oops, it was discovered by a deep-sea submarine, and there was really nothing good about acting rashly before the radar jamming equipment was repaired.
Yang Ran immediately issued an order: "Immediately put down the torpedo plate, protect the external armor of the ship, notify all warships to drop depth charges, aircraft carriers, battle columns, battle cruisers and heavy cruisers to withdraw first, and the whole fleet will start anti-submarine work." β
Yang Ran's order was quickly transmitted to the command room of each battleship, and the entire fleet changed its formation in an orderly manner.
Seeing this, Yang Ran nodded with satisfaction, glanced back at the cursor on the electronic device that was gradually approaching the battleship he was on, and immediately gave instructions: "All the personnel of the ship are ready to resist the earthquake." β
As Yang Ran's words fell, the first torpedo hit the torpedo board of the battleship where Yang Ran was, and the hull of the ship began to shake violently with the violent explosion, followed by the second ...... The third ......
Although with the timely command of Yang Ran and the coordination of the "helmsman" supercomputer driving the battleship, most of the torpedoes had been evaded, but a large number of torpedoes successfully hit the battleship.
The huge tonnage of nearly 650,000 tons at this moment was almost overturned by the waves generated by the torpedo explosion.
After the ship stabilized, Yang Ran immediately inquired about the situation of the personnel inside the battleship and the damage to the hull.
"Report to the captain, the hull of the sea fortress is intact as a whole, and the port side torpedo plate is damaged by 53% and is no longer in normal use."
"Report to the captain, the co-captain has a head injury that requires urgent medical treatment."
Hearing the news of Palan's injury, Yang Ran's heart suddenly tightened, and he took three steps and made two steps, and quickly ran in front of Palan.
Seeing that the blood on Palan's forehead was flowing down like a river that had opened a canal, Yang Ran immediately wanted to send it to the rescue boat in the rear.
However, he was stopped by Palan's arm.
"Yang Ran, run...... Just now...... I see it...... A lot...... Humanoid deep-sea ......"
A lot of human deep sea! How so? Isn't it said that the deep-sea fleet, the deep-sea in human form, there are less than ten? What's going on with a lot?
Yang Ran was about to continue to ask Palan, but unexpectedly, Palan's eyes closed and he fainted.
"Damn! Medic! Immediately take the deputy captain to the medical ship in the rear, if Palan has three long and two short, I Yang someone will try to ask you! β
After seeing Pa Lan being carried out of the command room by several nurse girls, Yang Ran didn't have time to breathe a sigh of relief, when suddenly a violent explosion came from the foredeck of the battleship, and with this violent explosion, the entire battleship instantly jolted.
"Report to the captain, the main turret in the bow of the ship was devastated, and the two secondary guns were directly blown away."
"Tell me where the cannon was fired, are you here to sell cuteness from the radar group? The deep sea has already started attacking us, why don't you report it! The same is true of the torpedo just now, what are you doing eating! Yang Ran slapped the table and angrily pointed at a few soldiers and scolded.
"Commander...... Both the radar and the hydro were damaged in the last battle, and we have stepped up our time to repair them, but we have only restored a detection radius of ten nautical miles, and we have done our best! β
When Yang Ran heard this, he suddenly felt that his blood was surging up to his head, and he barely stood still while holding on to the table, and before he could open his mouth, an observer girl yelled at Yang Ran in a hurry.
"Captain, look, something is wrong! We were ...... by a group of deep seas."
Before the observer could finish speaking, Yang Ran walked to the observer's side with a sword step, snatched the observer's goggles and looked in the direction the observer had pointed before.
When Yang Ran saw the carrier-based aircraft in the sky and the familiar deep-sea figures, his mouth opened unconsciously, but he didn't make any sound......
A dense explosion covered the sea area where the sea fortress was located, and several destroyers that were close to the sea fortress were unfortunately blown in half.
A stray bullet landed right next to the command room of the sea fortress, and the huge shock wave threw Yang Ran up and fell heavily to the ground.
Yang Ran silently got up from the ground, blood dripping down her right hand and onto the floor of the command room, making a ticking sound.
Yang Ran looked blankly at the fortress that had lost its original color after being bombed, and closed his eyes with a weak sigh.
"The order goes down...... All the personnel evacuated the sea fortress, the flagship was changed to Wales, with Li Jiuyao as the deputy captain and Bai Chenxi as the captain, all the warships withdrew from this sea area at the fastest speed, and left in the interval after the next shelling. β
"Captain...... We...... Let's go together......"
Looking at the girls who looked like they had done something wrong, Yang Ran smiled softly: "I'm not going anywhere...... This fortress ...... It's my home......"
"Captain......
"It's an order, soldier!"
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β
When the last soldier stepped on the lifeboat, Yang Ran silently withdrew his gaze, laboriously moved his body back to his captain's seat, and slowly closed his eyes.
"In the end, it's just you and me, Ou that's right, I've been calling you the Sea Fortress Sea Fortress, and I haven't had time to give you a decent name...... Well...... Let's call you Feiyu! Like a feather flying freely in the wind, the afterlife ...... I hope you can be born in a peaceful and prosperous world, and no longer have to shoulder the responsibility of fighting against the deep sea......
Ahem...... I'm really ...... There shouldn't be a need for a behemoth like you...... So...... I wish you ...... Be a child who will never grow up...... Children don't have to take on these responsibilities......"
Yang Ran smiled and pressed a button hidden on the table, and then silently closed his eyes.
"Nuclear leveling liberates the deep sea? It shouldn't be possible......"
