Chapter 925: Missile Attack Target Drill
Chapter 925: Missile Attack Target Drill
In fact, Muyang has been paying attention to the dynamics of the battleship, and at this moment, the tugboat has taken off the rope, the warship's boiler has started, and it has begun to slowly sail away from the bay.
The warship was now only cruising, traveling at a speed of about 18 knots, the bow splitting the water, turning up white foam, and dragging a long white chain out of the stern.
It was not until about 5 o'clock in the afternoon that the battleship stopped and floated on the sea in the Gulf of Aden.
Their previous mission was still to patrol and protect the safety of U.S. merchant ships passing in the Gulf of Aden, and it would take about five days to join the aircraft carrier group.
At this time, the sea area where the destroyer Tlaxton was anchored was already about 100 nautical miles away from Djibouti, and about 300 nautical miles away from the "George Bush" aircraft carrier group.
Muyang didn't show up at noon, and at dinner, he walked out of his cabin, and Muyang didn't take Luca out.
Walking into the officer's restaurant, it was very clean and spacious, everything seemed to be in order, Mu Yang saw that all the pots and pans, jam, salad bottles, etc. in the chef's position were in a fixed mode, just to avoid falling things down when the sea was too stormy.
The two propaganda posters on the wall attracted Mu Yang's attention, and Mu Yang looked carefully, one painting was the tragic scene of the bombing of Pearl Harbor, and the other was the scene of Japan signing the surrender at the end of World War II.
Mu Yang secretly pouted, looking at these propaganda posters posted on the walls of the Americans, he knew that the Japanese were not their closest allies in the hearts of the Americans, not what the Japanese thought they were, and the Americans had not relaxed their vigilance against the Japanese.
Looking at such propaganda posters every day, can the US Navy have a good impression of the Japanese, so it is not difficult to understand that the US military often forcibly annihilated Japanese girls at the Yokosuka Military Port in Japan.
"Mr. Captain, what do you want to do?" A black chef, dressed in an unmarked navy uniform and wearing a tall chef's hat, asked Muyang.
In fact, the buffet mode adopted on the battleship is all plates of dishes, but when Muyang, the fake captain, comes over, the head chef will come over to ask.
"Thanks, I'll do it myself." Mu Yang picked up the plate and picked out some random things and sat in a position.
The rest of the room was full, but he was the only one at the table, as if no one else dared to sit with the captain.
Mu Yang was about to finish eating, returning to his cabin, preparing for the night's operation, Mu Yang was still thinking about whether he wanted to use his identity to go to the command room like last time, and then kill everyone, and then implement his plan.
But at this time, a person sat opposite him, and Mu Yang looked up and saw that it was a lieutenant colonel officer, Vice Captain Langdon.
"Captain, I want to talk to you." Langdon said.
"Oh, whatever." Muyang was stunned.
"We have been renovating for five days, and the hearts of the soldiers are a little relaxed, and in order to ensure that the crew maintains a high state of combat readiness, I think it is necessary for us to conduct a combat exercise training." Langdon said.
Muyang's heart moved.
"What do you think?" Muyang took a piece of ham and put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.
"Air defense, anti-submarine, surface warfare, anti-missile warfare, and even missile attack target drills, we can pick one or two things to do at a time, as long as the boys are nervous." Langdon said.
Mu Yang's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on his face, "It's a good idea, Langdon, after eating in a while, go to the command room, the two of us have a good discussion, so that the boys can have a pleasant evening." ”
After eating, Mu Yang and Vice Captain Langdon came to the bridge command room, looking out at the dusky sea through the windowpane, and in a while, the night would completely fall here.
"Langdon, tell me what you think." Muyang took out a cigar and lit it.
This box of cigars was found by Muyang in Clint's cabin, obviously, Clint is also a guy who likes to smoke cigars, but the brand of cigars is made in the United States, which is not too high-end, and it is not comparable to those top Cuban cigars stored in Muyang's space.
But Mu Yang didn't want to think about it, the cigars he smoked were all the world's top cigars, which belonged to the luxury level, each cigar was about more than 500 US dollars, and Clint was a naval officer, where did he get the economic strength to smoke those Cuban cigars.
Don't look at Clint is a colonel, the captain of a Navy super battleship, piloting and managing a destroyer worth more than 2 billion US dollars, but his salary is only about 10,000 yuan per month, so he really can't afford to smoke a top cigar.

There are other benefits, such as medical and dental, etc., a total of 26 benefits, a total of nearly 8,000 US dollars per month, so the US military is the best welfare, many times stronger than China.
It's really a soldier who benefits the whole family.
Langdon took out a notebook, which is a tradition of the US Navy, and after opening it, Langdon said: "I think we can practice air defense, anti-submarine, and anti-missile operations at the same time, so that we can mobilize all the soldiers on the ship to work together at the same time." ”
Langdon then began to explain to Muyang the drill mode he planned, defense and attack targets, imaginary enemies, helicopter warnings for night takeoffs, and so on.
Mu Yang kept nodding his head, did not interrupt Langdon's speech, and listened very carefully, without making a rebuttal, which made Langdon happy, he felt that Clint agreed with his opinion.
In fact, Mu Yang understood a lot of what Langdon said, but he didn't know what he meant, so he could only nod his head and let him put forward his own opinions, which made it a little difficult for Mu Yang.
In the end, Mu Yang said: "Langdon, I think your plan is very good, but I think since the drill, the subjects are more complete, and how about adding the subjects of the missile attack target drill." (To be continued.) )
