Having found a suitable location, the ocean-going carrier, as well as the surrounding Liaoning and escort fleets, immediately turned their bows together and headed for the arc-shaped archipelago.

Mu Feng asked Kunlun to contact Qingyu and Liuyun, organize manpower, and prepare engineering materials and equipment.

Liaoning directly recovered the fighters and AWACS aircraft that were exploring to the east, and the fighters exploring to the west reached the limit of the combat radius and turned back.

Western AWACS planes continued to move forward, all arriving around noon to observe the archipelago again and gather more information.

However, because of the long distance, counting the distance traveled by the mothership, the AWACS range quickly reached the limit, and it had to return to the mothership.

In the evening, Liaoning recovered all the planes and returned to the mothership with all the escort fleets.

The ocean-going carrier, and the entire fleet, having reached the equatorial region, continued to sail westward.

There are ocean currents at the equator, and the area of ocean currents is the area where there is a lot of activity in the deep sea.

On the way to the west, the ocean-going carrier will encounter more or less deep sea from time to time.

These deep-sea Liaoning, Lanzhou, Taiyuan and other main fleets did not take care of it, but handed it over to the escort fleet.

The escort fleet has 8 modified aircraft carriers, 8 battleships, 8 heavy cruisers, as well as 16 cruisers and 32 destroyers, all of which have been converted into missiles.

With such a huge main fleet, there is no pressure to destroy hundreds of ordinary deep-sea ships, not to mention the missiles and electromagnetic cannons on the mothership, which are also big killers.

And the representatives of the major commands are also the main force of each command, and they are all rushing to help when they encounter the deep sea.

The deep sea encountered along the way was sent to the bottom of the sea before it had time to react, and it was sent to the bottom of the sea by a saturation attack composed of various missiles and bombs.

Even if it is a large-scale deep-sea fleet, that is, it consumes some more ammunition, and it will not do much harm to the mother ship and the escort fleet.

At night, everyone takes turns on duty, the mothership weapons, the discovery of the deep sea, is a matter of pressing a few buttons.

Early the next morning, Liaoning again released early warning planes and fighter planes and went to the islands again to explore.

The mothership sailed overnight, and today the distance has been shortened to about 1,400 kilometers, and the AWACS aircraft can hover over the archipelago for almost 5 hours.

Mu Feng followed the field of vision of the early warning aircraft and observed these islands at close range, especially those islands that are relatively large and have development value.

Like most parts of the world, these islands are full of lush primary forests, with more than 90% forest cover.

The topography of these islands is mostly interspersed with mountains and plains, and the overall direction of the mountains and the island arc is northeast-southwest.

It's just that some mountains are in the middle of the island, some are on the east side of the island, and some are on the west side of the island.

The largest of these islands has shifted slightly to the east, so the mountains are concentrated in the western part of the island.

There are also two small branches of the mountain range here, which makes the north and south sides of the island relatively high.

As a result, the middle and eastern parts of the island became a semi-open valley basin, which covered more than half of the island.

Rainwater from the islands is channelled into the middle of the island through a watershed formed by the slopes of the mountains on three sides, forming a network of water with a strong flow.

Mu Feng looked at these environments, and it can be said that he was very satisfied, and said on the Psychic Communication Channel:

"Let's build a large integrated base here, including a military port, an airport, an aerospace experiment center, and supporting manufacturing plants, as well as enough resource gathering facilities."

Yuanwang No. 7 and Liaoning agreed together:

"Well, let's continue to observe and look for a suitable place to land and build a port......"

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Liaoning collected enough information, and the AWACS aircraft did not have much fuel left, so they turned around and returned to the mothership one after another.

That night, the mothership picked up speed again and sailed west at full speed.

At six o'clock the next morning, the sun jumped out of the sea from the east, and the ocean carrier was still about 120 kilometers away from the largest island.

Liaoning once again unfolded its hull, released an early warning aircraft, and flew around on alert.

The 64-man construction fleet organized by Qingyu and Liuyun, loaded with a large number of engineering materials and equipment in the cabin, followed Kunlun, Changchun, and Qiandao Lake, and set off from the capital Xincheng Airport on a shocking fighter jet.

While waiting, Liaoning looked down on the entire archipelago through the field of vision of the AWACS aircraft:

"Oh yes, Commander, it occurred to me that this archipelago will also be the territory of our headquarters in the future, but it doesn't have a name yet, so you can give it a name."

Mu Feng also got up early, in the scientific research center of Xingang, looking at the image of the archipelago on the holographic projection, he suddenly heard Liaoning's words, and his expression suddenly became tangled:

"This ...... The name of the archipelago ...... Ahem, this ...... This island is south of an ocean, so how about calling it the South Sea Islands? ”

Hearing this name, the ship girls suddenly smiled, this is to use the existing name, but it is quite appropriate, so the name was unanimously approved.

Mu Feng thought that today's catastrophe had passed, but immediately heard Yuanwang No. 7 say:

"The name of the archipelago is there, but what about the name of each island?"

Mu Feng suddenly looked embarrassed, in this archipelago, there are at least hundreds of large and small islands, and if you want to name them all one by one, this is your own life:

"This ...... There are too many of these islands, and it is not very certain what specialties and characteristics the islands have, so there is no need to decide what each island is called.

"We will now name them in the order in which they were found, and then slowly think of more appropriate names when we develop each island in the future."

Taiyuan confirmed it and said:

"What the commander means is that it's called Nanyang No. 1, Nanyang No. 2, all the way to Nanyang Dozen, right?"

Mu Feng smiled and nodded:

"Yes, but this is only a tentative name, and it will be changed later when it is suitable."

Liaoning followed and said:

"I think it's okay, and besides, don't be embarrassed for the commander, it's really too difficult for him to choose a name......

Neptune also said seriously:

"yes, yes, give the commander some hair......"

Lanzhou asked a little suspiciously:

"Why do you call it some hair?"

Sirius doesn't have these, and explains in a serious way:

"The commander is a name, taking a name can make her lose a lot of hair, this large string of island names is all determined, the commander should be bald......"

There was a burst of laughter in the channel.

Mu Feng coughed a few times and changed the topic:

"Let's get down to business, it's all serious, the name of the island is so decided, it's time to work, the fleet with equipment and materials has set off, Liaoning remember to pick it up, and others will help......"

"Hmm...... Ha...... Got it......"

The ship girls agreed noisily.

Liaoning suddenly said with a little doubt:

"Wait...... South...... It looks like a plane is coming...... Not our ......"

The channel suddenly fell silent, and Neptune subconsciously asked:

"Airplanes? How can there be an outsider's plane in this place? ”

Shenzhen frowned and said:

"The Nanyang Islands are desert islands, and there are no military ports on them, and there are no modern cities and airports.

"Is this plane from the USN? Are they also exploring? Found this archipelago too?

"Sister Lenin, how far are the two sides now, and can you confirm the specific model of each other's aircraft?"
