When the alarm sounded, Wang Chen was squatting on the tuba, no matter how strong his physique was, it was impossible to jump out of the category of a normal person, and he should eat, drink, and Lazar, all the same, so when Wang Chen heard the whistle on the cruise ship, he was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted that something had happened.

Fortunately, it has been finished, otherwise it will be even more embarrassing, Wang Chen hurriedly got his personal hygiene, and stepped out of the bathroom and ran to the deck while tying his belt, although he didn't know anything about naval warfare, and he couldn't help anything on the deck, but hiding in the cabin was not Wang Chen's choice after all, besides, the first choice for anyone in this situation was to go to the deck, so as not to be blocked by the sea water and drown alive in the cabin.

Just rushed to the deck, Wang Chen only saw the biological armor soldier in charge of vigilance, these guys looked blank, indifferent to the alarm sound at all, before Wang Chen found Sheng Qingru, there was a loud noise on the side of the cruise ship, the hull shook violently, Wang Chen hurriedly grabbed the handrail beside him to keep the center of gravity, but he didn't expect that the loud noise was accompanied by the sudden rise of the waves mixed with this pink foam, this sea water soared Wang Chen couldn't avoid it no matter how fast he reacted, he was caught off guard by the waves and covered his head all over his body, and his nose and mouth were full of fishy smell. Wiping his face, he grabbed a piece of greasy minced meat from his neck, and only then did he notice that the deck was covered with blood, internal organs, and rotten flesh like splashed ink!

The people who can get on the cruise ship are not ordinary people, except for Sheng Qingru, Wang Chen, and Director Chen, there are several accompanying special services and biological armored soldiers, so this face is bloody and bloody, and no one will lie on the side of the ship and vomit, but everyone is quite surprised, not to mention what weapons the cruise ship was attacked, just inexplicably blowing up such a big wave of flesh and blood, it has already made most people scratch their heads.

Reconfirmed that there was no Sheng Qingru in his field of vision, Wang Chen suddenly came to his senses, he was concerned about it, at this time, Sheng Qingru must be in the bridge of the cruise ship, not anywhere else. Fortunately, the cruise ship they took was only a nominal cruise ship, much smaller in size than other big guys, and the first condition for choosing it before was speed, this cruise ship should be called a cruise ship to be exact, so Wang Chen did not spend too much time to reach the bridge.

Sure enough, Sheng Qingru and Director Chen were on the bridge, and the latter didn't say much when he saw Wang Chen enter the door, his brows were furrowed, obviously thinking about who didn't open his eyes and dared to shout with 10,000 tons, but Sheng Qingru saw that Wang Chen was covered in blood and looked at him with a concerned look, and his heart warmed slightly, and he took two steps and said, "Are you okay?" ”

Wang Chen shook his head and said that he was fine, Sheng Qingru continued: "We were torpedoed, but we were blocked by the mutant dolphin I controlled, don't worry. ”

For Sheng Qingru's endless abilities, Wang Chen has gone from being surprised to becoming accustomed to it, and he also knows that his physical strength and reaction obtained by strengthening potions are useless in this kind of sea confrontation, standing next to Sheng Qingru as a meat shield is the greatest support for his beloved woman, and said softly: "Don't force yourself too much, stop if you have a bad headache." ”

"I know, don't worry."

Director Chen didn't have the leisure to look at the two of them, staring at the synchronous radar video sent by the 055 drive, and said coldly: "Qingru, can you guarantee the underwater safety of the fleet?" ”

Modern warfare does not have a single fight at all, it is all the integration of air and sea, and the popular description is side by side! Even in peacetime, submarines of various countries have to face all kinds of tracking equipment and tracking methods from the sky to the sea from the moment they go to sea, and it is almost impossible to completely hide in the blue waves.

It's just that the current situation is really special, and there will be an embarrassment of a 055 package to fight the world, it can be said that 055 is covered in iron, and it is not enough to rely on it alone to protect the entire fleet, so the implication of Director Chen's words is very simple, if the underwater safety of the fleet is guaranteed, 055 can focus on anti-submarine and air defense, and the probability of solving the submarine will naturally increase.

can't pass the pass, and even if the diplomatic side asks for sky-high compensation afterwards, it has nothing to do with the people in the fleet.

What is the use of reparations for the dead?

"There is also a limit to the physical strength of mutant dolphins, and if I want them to intercept torpedoes in time while moving with the ship, I can guarantee an hour at most."

"055 inferred that the other party's second attack is unlikely." Director Chen nodded and said, "One hour is enough." ”

Yes, one hour is enough time for the early warning planes, fighters, and anti-submarine planes at Nansha Airport to rush over the convoy to provide air support in all aspects and cover the convoy out of the warring waters, although the maximum underwater speed of various submarines of the United States and Russia starts at 25 knots, and it is easy to track a group of civilian ships with an average speed of no more than 20 knots, but the noise emitted by these submarines when they sneak at high speed is also enough to expose their positions, so as long as the civilian ships drive a long enough distance under the cover of large drive and air support, Even if the submarine is later supported by satellite remote sensing and gets the exact position of the fleet, if it wants to chase the back of the fleet and continue to sneak attack, it will also run the huge risk of being detected by suspended sonar and eating a few depth charges.

Why is it inferred that the likeliness of a second submarine attack is not great? Considering that the naval and air forces of the United States and Russia are all alone in the waters of the Pacific Ocean near New Guinea, which are even worse than those of China, the commander of the submarine that misses the first blow is smart enough to lose the first hand, and after losing the first hand, the best choice is to dive and infiltrate and give up tracking and secondary attack.

In fact, as the captain of the big destroyer inferred, the fleet chose a zigzag route after leaving the civilian route and continued to the northwest, and the sonar dropped along the way did not send back any signal of suspected submarines, and there was no further attack. For the sake of prudence, after discussions between Director Chen and Sheng Qingru, the plan to land at Port Moresby was cancelled, and the fleet turned to Lae, the second largest port in New Guinea. Since the fleet took the Philippine Sea route, the change of plan resulted in the arrival of Lae half a day earlier than the scheduled arrival time in Port Moresby, which was just when the sky was just shining, which was also a windfall.

Papua New Guinea, located near the equator, has no four seasons, and the temperature always hovers between twenty or thirty degrees, which sounds quite suitable for human habitation, but in fact it is one of the last regions of the earth to be developed by human civilization. As a result, Lae, New Guinea's second-largest city, has a population of just over 100,000, roughly the population of a township in the country, and it is better to stand on the deck of a cruise ship and look out over the city than look for a speck of human architecture in the midst of vibrant greenery.

The benefits of a sparse population are naturally there, even if they are infected by the zombie virus, the degree of damage inside and outside the city is quite limited, coupled with the perennial high temperature environment and the unique vitality of the tropical rainforest, the drones and biological armor soldiers who have been detected in advance have sent back a reassuring news, there are only rainforest creatures, mutant creatures and a small number of bones in the entire urban area, and half of the zombies are invisible.

Escorted by the 055 destroyers, the flotilla methodically docked in port and began to organize port facilities and unload supplies on board. These 'rough jobs' naturally don't need Sheng Qingru to do it herself, at this time she was standing on the front deck of the cruise ship with Director Chen and Wang Chen, blowing the sea breeze and watching the scenery.

The three of them knew that this was the last time they met before the return of the 055 Expedition, and no matter whether Sheng Qingru could lead a group of Munedi biological armored soldiers to gain a firm foothold in a foreign country, for a long time in the future, her communication with China would be limited to two medium-range passenger planes with a range of 3,000 kilometers, as daily official trips and evacuation in an emergency.

The leader of the new creature will definitely not run around, so it must be Wang Chen's job to go back and forth on daily business, if Sheng Qingru boards one of the two passenger planes one day, either the situation is completely stable, and the new 'state' formed by the mutant creature is recognized by China, the United States and Russia, or Sheng Qingru fails to establish the country and flees in a hurry.

“…… Really don't think about letting us bring Zheng Guozong back? You know, the fleet was attacked, and the biggest suspicion was him, as long as you let go, you can say whatever supplies you want. Director Chen's face was concerned, and anyone who saw his expression had to give birth to a feeling from the bottom of his heart that this person was absolutely reliable, and if he did financing, he might take a risk if he invested all his worth, and it would definitely be okay to invest half of it.

Wang Chen is actually not good at talking about how to deal with Zheng Guozong, he has no good impression of Zheng Guozong, but he also somewhat admits that the other party saved him, although this sexual orientation is a man, but when he thinks of it in the future, he will inevitably bow his head and not look up next to Sheng Qingru, in private, Wang Chen still hopes to send Zheng Guozong back to China directly, and let Chen Hanxin manipulate it, anyway, all the way Zheng Guozong cooperated with Chen Hanxin to do biological experiments on another cruise ship according to Sheng Qingru's instructions, and the two sides should be very familiar with each other.

Shaking his head with a smile, Sheng Qingru lightly opened his lips, "Director Chen said that he laughed, I don't have many hole cards in my hand, and I use one less card, are you right?" Also, this set of psychological hints, you better put it away as soon as possible, it's useless to me. ”

"In public and private, you have to try." Director Chen shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands again, his little trick was recognized, but he was not embarrassed, with the thickness of his face, this setback was nothing at all, and continued: "The diplomatic note of the United States and Russia on the attack on our scientific research fleet adheres to the principle of three noes, does not recognize, does not deny, and is not clear. ”

"Not surprisingly." Wang Chen snorted coldly.

"In addition, no matter which side of the United States and Russia knows about our escort operation and sends submarines to sneak attack, as long as the fleet withdraws from the port, they will have follow-up actions, but because the left-behind personnel are nominally protected by the Chinese government, the superiors judge that the scale of the operation will not be very large, at least they will not force the domestic launch of medium and long-range missiles to support you, but you can't take it lightly, the heavy firepower of naval guns and the like, air-to-ground, surface-to-surface missiles will not move, Amphibious landing ships and the various types of weapons that come with them are not easy to deal with. ”

Sheng Qingru was not frightened by Director Chen's description, and nodded: "The establishment of any country cannot be smooth sailing, and a limited war can also be seen as a demonstration of the strength of mutated creatures. I think that China is also taking this opportunity to touch the hole cards of the United States and Russia, right? No matter how you look at it, after this battle, the country will not suffer. ”

"Your speculation, I can't admit it, in fact, I can't deny it, okay, that's all for business." Seeing that Sheng Qingru could draw inferences, Director Chen naturally did not dwell on this topic more, and said carefully: "Let's talk about it privately, it's a friend." No matter what you insist on keeping Zheng Guozong for, what I hope is not to try to find a balance among the Three Kingdoms through him or any other channel, just like the Illuminati before, in that case, you will only end up being crushed by the Three Kingdoms, if I were you, after surviving this battle for the founding of the country and showing your strength, you would simply sign a formal treaty with the country. ”

"A formal treaty?"

"That's right, if you have to break up, let's not talk about whether you can gain the trust of the United States and Russia, don't interrupt me, let me finish, once the boss loses confidence in you and only uses you as a bargaining chip for trading with the United States and Russia, then your fate can be imagined, after all, countries have always only talked about interests and friendships, and friendship is only between their own people, understand? If you don't have a relationship, as long as the price is cost-effective, you can sell it! Moreover, the current world situation, the governments of the three countries that are still in operation all regard it as an opportunity, so I don't need to say what the specific opportunity is, right? Don't look at the fact that they are still licking their wounds and trying their best to recover, but one day they will have to divide themselves and redraw their spheres of influence with the red line of not entering a nuclear war! ”

"Chen Ju, I have taken your words to heart." Sheng Qingru still looked light, but her tone was still quite sincere, indicating that she did listen to Director Chen's words, raised her hand and stroked her hair that was blown by the sea breeze, and then continued: "There are some things, I am not sure if I can do it now, and there are some things, I can give you a verbal promise now, however, it is meaningless, you can rest assured that no matter what, Chinese is my mother tongue." ”

Director Chen seemed to be waiting for Sheng Qingru to say this, pursed his lips, nodded, and without wasting half a word, he patted Wang Chen's shoulder again, wiped his body and got into the cabin.

"In short, I won't trust anyone, maybe this attack was directed and staged by the government, in order to cut off the possibility of peace talks with the United States and Russia, but this is good, showing strength is the most fundamental reliance of a country." Seeing Director Chen's back disappear, Sheng Qingru said softly.

Seeing that Wang Chen frowned and didn't speak, Sheng Qingru smiled instead, of course she didn't ask the other party if she was afraid, but said very intimately: "If you are worried about Sister Aishi, let her go back with the fleet." ”

Speaking of Zhang Aishi, Wang Chen's face was somewhat unnatural, and he changed the topic and said: "Why are you still worried about such a trivial matter, we are about to confront a certain national power." ”

Sheng Qingru, who instantly turned into a little daughter, didn't answer Wang Chen's words at all, and continued to take care of herself: "State affairs are important, and family affairs are equally important. ”

Wang Chen's character is naturally not the kind of procrastination and hesitation, since the words have been said here, he simply opened up and said: "Qingru, the decision is up to you, I am a little shameless when I say this, but I don't want to lie to you, I don't know how to deal with the relationship between you and me and Aishi." ”

"I said that if it was me before, I would have shot the other party with one shot, and there would never be any guilt or hesitation." When Sheng Qingru said this, her eyes always fell on Wang Chen's face, and her face was as usual.

Wang Chen nodded, if Sheng Qingru hadn't died that time, he couldn't have rolled the sheets with Zhang Aishi after being upset, then again, it seemed that he was affected by Sheng Qingru after the resurrection, right?

"Actually, I plan to let Sister Ai Shi accompany you as my substitute, because for a long time in the future, I will focus on building a new country, and you and I will definitely spend less time together, and I don't want you to be too lonely, Chen, do you understand? Moreover, I know that you have more desires for Sister Ai Shi than feelings, and Sister Ai Shi has more guilt than feelings, and from this point of view, there is not much threat to me, so I don't think it's okay for the two of you to be together, besides, I will trouble Sister Ai Shi in some aspects in the future......"

Seeing Sheng Qingru analyzing the relationship between men and women in a clear and coherent manner, Wang Chen's heart suddenly swelled with a sense of absurdity and strangeness, is this stunning woman in front of him really what he loves? Or is she just a different creature on the outside of a lover on the outside?

Putting aside this strange thought in an instant, Wang Chen decided to end the topic and said sincerely: "Since you have said so, let her stay." ”

Sheng Qingru saw Wang Chen say this, nodded in agreement, and continued: "When it comes to confrontation with the country, naturally you can't take it lightly, I'm not omnipotent, it's impossible to do everything, so, dear, I need you to help me fill in the gaps, if the battle starts, it is likely that you will have to be alone." ”

After many days of getting along, even if Sheng Qingru did not systematically explain the extent of her control over mutated creatures, Wang Chen still had a systematic understanding from the casual details and Sheng Qingru's words. Alive', and, the information package sent by Sheng Qingru has a certain 'antivirus' attribute, which can make the biological armor soldiers who have fallen into a frenzy wake up, if the brain is damaged in the process of mutation, even if the damage is irreversible in the short term, it can also restore a certain thinking ability by receiving Sheng Qingru's instructions.

In addition to this unique feature, Sheng Qingru can also control other mutated creatures with low intelligence, all creatures infected by zombie pathogens and genetically branded offspring are within Sheng Qingru's control, with almost no exceptions. With the help of the particularity of the biological server cluster and the biological quantum communication, the scope of this control ability has almost no delay, and it will not be interfered by ordinary EMP weapons.

It's just that this kind of control ability is not invincible, Sheng Qingru herself is a human being, and she can't be multitasking physically and psychologically, so when Sheng Qingru focuses on controlling a certain group or even a certain mutated creature, the rest of the mutant creatures will be affected by her and accept her instructions, and their autonomy will be increased accordingly, and they will begin to follow instinctive activities.

For example, Sheng Qingru at this time is like a herdsman, driving a large herd of livestock, if she puts her perspective on the entire herd, then this group of livestock will act according to her instructions, if Sheng Qingru is driving the herd, she notices that a lamb is out of the team for some reason, and is about to be eaten by a wolf lurking in the grass, she can command the lamb alone to avoid the wolf's pursuit, and at the same time order the bull in the herd to leave the team to pick up the lamb. Then, during the period when the bull picks up the lamb and returns to the herd, Sheng Qingru's degree of control over the herd naturally decreases, even if she gives a simple order to stay where she is in place in advance, because these mutated creatures themselves are not intelligent creatures, and their memory and understanding are quite limited, when the lamb and the bull return to the herd, Sheng Qingru is likely to have to recover other livestock that have left the team, eliminate their attention on the roadside pasture, and drive the livestock back into the herd.

At this time, Wang Chen, Zheng Guozong, and even those sane biological armored soldiers who are far away in Italy are definitely needed, although it is impossible for them to lead a huge group of mutant organisms like Sheng Qingru, but under Sheng Qingru's authorization, it is still possible to control a small number of mutated creatures in a short period of time, so that even if Sheng Qingru has a situation of taking care of one or the other when controlling mutant creatures, these administrators with lower authority can also pick up and fill in the gaps in time to minimize possible losses.

From this point of view, even if Zheng Guozong is suspected of betraying Sheng Qingru, Sheng Qingru, who has no one to use, will have to risk using him first, after all, except for Sheng Qingru himself, Zheng Guozong's ability to control mutant creatures is the strongest, and if he wants to deal with him, he will have to hold on until the country of mutant creatures is officially operational, and the battle for the founding of the country will not be able to survive, and things like settling accounts after the autumn will naturally be impossible to mention.

As for Zheng Guozong's release of water on the battlefield, passive sabotage and even a bite back, etc., of course, the 'think tank' behind Sheng Qingru has also made an analysis, and there is indeed such a possibility, but Sheng Qingru has a lot of confidence in her control ability, if Zheng Guozong really dares to rebel, she doesn't mind directly turning Zheng Guozong's brain into a piece of blood tofu.

In the next two days, Director Chen took the special service to unload, and Sheng Qingru led Wang Chen, Zheng Guozong and the biological armored army to organize the facilities and defense lines of Laicheng, because the gantry crane in Laicheng Port was very old, the loading and unloading task that was originally expected to be completed in one day was delayed for three days, and Director Chen found an excuse to delay it for one more day, which was considered to make Sheng Qingru more prepared here, and then took the special service to return to China on a transport plane. It's all up to Wang Chen and themselves.
