The three speedboats, numbered 1 and 2, were escort boats, each with eight high-quality fighters on board, and were responsible for guarding and directing the safety of the waters near the ships. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The number three speedboat was tasked with a surprise reconnaissance mission, with only four soldiers with excellent reconnaissance skills on board, and they explored ahead at twice the speed of the fleet, looking for a suitable and safe navigation path.
Along with Boat 3 were two motorboats, one loaded with positioning devices and signal receivers, and the other loaded with a large amount of explosives in case needed.
In the vicinity of the command ship, in addition to the two frigates, there was only one lifeboat left, and as for the supply ship, it was far behind the fleet.
The command ship has been almost completely converted into a second command center, and in the captain's cabin, a large number of high-tech equipment is placed to not only communicate with the other seven ships, but also to receive signals from the camp.
After going to sea for more than an hour, compared with the difficulties and dangers that Lu You imagined, the trip was much easier and simpler, and now they had almost traveled more than ten kilometers, which was one-eighth of the total distance to the destination.
What they explored from the camp, although it was only about forty kilometers away from Xiangyang Town, where the Comet was located, was a straight-line distance, and Lu You and the others had to take a detour, a detour, and find a way to really get there.
So 100 kilometers is the approximate distance that the technicians predict the fleet will need to travel.
Heroic and enthusiastic, after half an hour of sailing, Lu You regained his composure.
Although Huiyang City is a newly formed sea, there are some ruins protruding from the sea from time to time, but after a long time, people will quickly feel tired, especially the sea water is turbid yellow mud color, and there are a lot of garbage driftwood floating, which makes people even more interested.
Originally, Lu You also wanted to take the No. 3 speedboat and explore the way, but Li Xiaobai strictly forbade it, so Lu You had to return to the captain's room to watch the picture transmitted from the front.
As the original sightseeing boat, the speed of the command boat will not be very fast even if it has been transformed, but the speedboat is different, after letting go of the speed, even if it is against the current, it still has a good speed.
At present, the reconnaissance group at the forefront has been abandoned more than 10 kilometers away from the main fleet, and it is difficult to see them even from the bow of the ship.
The footage sent back from the reconnaissance team showed that they had reached the edge of the center of Huiyang.
This brought the advance of the reconnaissance team to a halt, and the voice of the leader of the reconnaissance team 1 came from the walkie-talkie: "The front is the central business circle, should we go through it directly, or do we choose to take a detour?" ā
On the screen, there is still an endless sea, occasionally revealing the remains of several dilapidated buildings, which they have repeatedly confirmed from the map if it were not for stones, and a very small number of towering commercial buildings, even the most authentic Huiyang people would not be able to recognize this place.
Compared to when Lu You and the others left, the ruins and ruins here had undoubtedly collapsed a lot, and they had almost become the same ordinary sea surface as other places.
However, Lu You, Li Xiaobai, and the stones who had drifted into this area were still impressed, and the buildings on the sea may have collapsed, but this does not mean that this place is safe.
On the contrary, this proves that the current in this area is very fast, and there are many reefs under the water, even if Lu You's command ship can pass safely, the supply ship with a deeper draft is very dangerous.
After hesitating for a moment, Lu You picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Let's go around, lean out of the edge, our time is very tight, try to go as fast as you can." But also be safe! ā
"Yes! Roger that! ā
After receiving the order, the reconnaissance team began to act again, only to see that they put the pendulum into the water, slowed down, and probed the underwater environment as they went, looking for a suitable route.
Sailing by boat is not as thrilling as when Lu You was drifting before, but it will quickly make people feel bored, especially when Lu You also found that the countdown to the third-level disaster was accelerated, and Lu You was even more uneasy.
Leaving the camp almost two hours and leaving the countdown to 46 hours at the time of departure, now there are only 42 hours left!
It's almost twice as fast as the countdown!
This should be caused by Lu You moving towards the ocean, the closer to the sea, the earlier the collapse will occur, so the time that Lu You and they really have is not as much as 40 hours.
Knowing the reason for the acceleration of the countdown, Lu You became more and more uneasy about this operation, as long as they kept moving, Lu You could not accurately predict the real time of the disaster, which would make him very passive.
In Lu You's anxiety, the fleet was still moving forward quickly and orderly, and after having a safe means of transportation, the vast sea became much easier to conquer.
There were people on the command boat and at the camp who were closely watching the dynamics of the weather, and fortunately, although the sky was a little dark due to the volcanic ash, there was no sign of rain.
From 7 o'clock in the morning to 12 noon, the crowd had traveled more than 30 kilometers, nearly one-third of the total distance.
At lunchtime, the reconnaissance team rested on the spot, after all, the three boats were only equipped with one shift. After a hard morning's work, they will wait for the main fleet to approach and then switch people to continue the reconnaissance mission.
The smooth progress of the trip made Li Xiaobai and them all breathe a sigh of relief, only Lu You was still frowning, seeing Lu You's appearance, Li Xiaobai helped him bring him lunch and asked, "What?" Did you find any problems? ā
Lunch was much less nutritious than what Lu You ate in the previous two days, but because it was cooked first, it had a more delicious aroma, Lu You took the lunch box and said with a wry smile: "I just didn't find a problem." Maybe this operation was too easy, but I was a little unaccustomed to it. ā
Hearing Lu You's words, Li Xiaobai pursed his lips and chuckled, shook his head and said: "Maps and routes, the camp has been designed and planned for more than ten days in the past three days, and there are also a lot of plans for various situations. There are more than 30 fighters, and each of them is the top player in the camp, and it is normal for it to go smoothly. ā
Lu You smiled bitterly and nodded, it is true that there are very few places where Lu You can be used this time, or if the mission goes well, Lu You will not be used, if Lu You is needed to command, there must be a big problem, but this state of having nothing to do, it doesn't feel very good.
