959 Chopping Waves

The conversation between several people had just ended, and the troops were ready to go, only seven minutes after Qiao Wei read the order.

It is not that the fighters are extraordinary, but that this unit has always undertaken the combat readiness duty of the military, and the airborne division was all members of the Marine Corps before its establishment; After the establishment of the airborne division, it was all the officers and soldiers who completed the chip implantation.

All personnel and all weapons and equipment in the base are always in a state of combat readiness, and after receiving the order, all the troops have to do is put on their personal equipment and board the vehicle.

Qiao Wei personally rushed to the training ground to see him off, and all the officers and soldiers who stayed at the base also spontaneously rushed to see off their comrades.

Although this is not a thousand mountains and rivers, it is hundreds of millions of kilometers away, and when the troops return in triumph, many familiar faces will disappear forever in the distant Jupiter.

The troops were ready to go, several people shook hands and said goodbye, Qiao Wei solemnly asked: "Take care!" ”

Ye Han nodded heavily, and boarded the No. 1 car in a few steps: "Let's go!" ”

The driver started the vehicle and accelerated towards the camp gate, and Qiao Wei, who was standing on the side, roared loudly: "Salute-"

Brush - The thirty or so people who stayed at the base raised their right hands together, and a torrent of steel sped past the front of the queue.

At the same time, Ye Han in the car also raised his arm and did not put it down silently until he drove out of the camp.

The convoy rushed all the way and arrived at the Qiongzhou Military Port in just ten minutes.

There are several large transport ships parked on the docks of the port, and there are military containers stacked high above and below the ships, and cranes are constantly sending containers up and down under the command of the ground.

Since the completion of the rail elevator, the Qiongzhou Military Port has become one of the main sea and land transfer stations on land and sea, and the situation today is relatively good, not only is the port full of warships parked at the busiest time, but also many warships that have no place to rely on are parked on the sea.

Before the convoy entered the dock, the sentry commanding the traffic stopped the convoy, Ye Han showed the order to the sentry, and then the sentry called someone over, grabbed the door of car No. 1, and directed the convoy to move forward, until the convoy was brought to the corner of the pier.

Ye Han was far away when he saw a different boat on the dock, and he didn't pay much attention at first, until the sentry brought the convoy under the boat, and he knew that this was the car for this trip.

The airborne division was not actually transported by naval vessels, but by a passenger and cargo ro-ro ship requisitioned by the military, the Yuzhu.

The Yuzhu is nearly 200 meters long, nearly 30 meters wide, and has a standard displacement of nearly 40,000 tons.

But the Yuzhu had to set off with the military's transport ships and the escort fleet, and the airborne division was moving too fast, and the transport ships were not yet full.

Ye Han just took advantage of this time to arrange the troops, and with the assistance of the crew, he took the soldiers out of the cargo hold and placed them on each deck according to the formation.

The time was close to one o'clock in the afternoon, and Ye Han originally planned to let the soldiers have a meal with field food, but before the order was given, the captain found Ye Han and said that the restaurant had prepared lunch.

This really shocked Ye Han, this is a meal for more than 2,000 people!

It was difficult to resist the hospitality, and the military paid for it, Ye Han was not polite to the captain, and rushed to the restaurant to see that the food standard was not low.

So Ye Han gave an order, and all the officers and men of the airborne division were divided into two waves and took turns to eat.

After the meal, the transport ships were finally loaded with supplies, and the ships slowly left the harbor with a low whistle, and the Yuzhu followed very cooperatively.

After the ship sailed to the sea, it joined the two escort frigates, and more than a dozen ships sailed all the way to Ladder Island against the sea breeze.

When the fleet finally departed, Ye Han was worried about his wife and children at home, and he was worried about the upcoming mission, so he couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.

Because of the bad mood, Ye Han wandered around the deck alone and found that the environment of this ship is really good, not only the regular settings such as guest rooms and restaurants, but also KTV boxes, chess and card rooms, cafes and bars, and even a sightseeing deck for walking, which has a fight with the legendary luxury cruise ship.

Using such a cruise ship as a troop carrier really made Ye Han feel like a tyrannical thing...... In fact, this is the illusion brought by luxury decoration, if you talk about the cost alone, the cost of a warship is much higher than that of a cruise ship!

For example, the cost of the two escort frigates is close to 2 billion yuan per ship, while the cost of this passenger and cargo ro-ro ship is only 400 million, and the warship will definitely blow up a few streets of cruise ships.

However, the warship pays attention to practicality, without any superfluous packaging, and naturally looks far from the grade of the cruise ship.

Headless flies jumped around, and I didn't know how to walk to the bow of the boat, the sea breeze rushed towards him with splashing water droplets, Ye Han couldn't help but take a deep breath, holding on to the railing with both hands, looking at the endless sea in the distance, and his depressed mood seemed to be much soothed.

A voice suddenly appeared behind him: "Master Ye is so interested!" ”

As soon as Ye Han turned around, behind him was Captain Zhong of the Yuzhu, he hurriedly waved his hand to say hello, but he didn't explain the reason why he was here, and took the initiative to find a topic: "Captain Zhong, I was looking for you, how long do we have to get to Ladder Island?" ”

"That's early." Captain Zhong walked up to Ye Han's side, "About three to four days." ”

Ye Han was taken aback: "So long? ”

Captain Zhong asked curiously, "How long do you think it is?" ”

Ye Han touched his nose embarrassedly: "I thought it would be there in more than ten hours at most." ”

"More than a dozen hours?" Captain Zhong almost thought that there was something wrong with his ears, "Don't make trouble, it will take more than eighty hours anyway." ”

"Why is it so long?" Ye Han asked puzzled.

"Is this still long? Oh, I see, you're used to being on a warship. Captain Zhong made up a reason in his mind, "Let's pay attention to people like this, the speed of warships is fast, thirty knots per hour, transport ships and ro-ro ships are not so fast, and we will run twenty knots if we fight hard, and we will only run fifteen knots now, and we will have to run more than 1,300 nautical miles from Qiongzhou Port to Ti Dao, at least more than 80 hours." ”

Ye Han suddenly realized, and said in his heart that I am used to sitting on warships, but it is not a warship of the navy, but a warship of the space fleet, and I can't even use up an hour after running more than a thousand nautical miles.

If the speed of the long voyage is at its peak, I am afraid that it will not take even a minute to fly this distance.

He laughed self-deprecatingly: "So we have to sit for at least three days?" I thought I could get there in one night! ”

Captain Zhong also smiled: "It would be nice if the rail elevator could be placed in Qiongzhou...... Eh, you're stationed on the island too, right? I heard that there are several groups of people, is Ladder Island so dangerous? ”

Ye Han glanced at Captain Zhong quietly: "I really don't know if it's dangerous or not, I'll take the team wherever we are asked to go." ”
