Chapter 19: Seahorse Landing
Typhoons and hurricanes are both a kind of strong cyclones that occur in the tropical ocean, but they occur in different locations, so they are called differently, and for the super fourteenth typhoon that the Federal Astronomical and Meteorological Service has already surveyed, it is predetermined to be No. 0126.

Many people wonder where the names of those strange typhoons that often appear in weather warnings come from, but in fact, in the history of naming hurricanes, the history of the European and American continents is relatively long, the earliest can be traced back to the storm period, and most of the numbers used on it are some numerical codes.
The opening number represents the beginning of a new era in the Federation since the end of the Dark Ages, and now that it is the beginning of winter, it must be the deepest impression of December due to the fact that this is the sixth typhoon in the Earth's circle in recent months.
The international number 0126 typhoon is the professional name of the Federal Weather Service in the industry, in addition to it, it also has a name derived from the country of China, that is, seahorse, which means a kind of fish.
According to the Federal Meteorological Agency, the winds in the seahorse will reach at least an astonishing fourteen, and will only gradually rise on this basis, and will not weaken, which is already considered a real storm.
Storms have long been imprinted in the minds of human beings with negative images such as catastrophe, darkness, and the end of the world, but in a sense, the storm also symbolizes a war, a great war between humans and natural disasters.
The war is imminent, and as far as the eye can see, I can see that on the originally calm sea level of Pearl Harbor, it was first stirred up by a cold wind that seemed to be there and sparkling microwaves, and then with the thrust of the wind in the rear, waves began to rush towards the pier, and under the background of the thunderbolts that trembled from time to time in the sky, it was really like a group of galloping war horses, with the momentum of annexing mountains and rivers, and attacked the coast mightily.
"Black clouds overwhelm the city and want to destroy it...... Yang Lei muttered to himself, even though there was a warning issued by meteorological experts first, he couldn't help but be shocked at this time.
At this time, the Seahorse was moving northwest at a speed of about 20 knots per hour, gradually approaching the interior of Pearl Harbor, and the speed was constantly accelerating, which had completely exceeded the psychological expectations of the World Meteorological Organization, between 16 and 17, and this trend was still intensifying, and there was no intention of stopping.
When they passed by the guards who were on the border of Pearl Harbor, they easily overturned a military tanker weighing dozens of tons, and then drove straight into it, slowly spreading to the entire wharf.
Yang Lei knows that the speed of encroachment is not too fast is actually just people's optical illusion, and it is true, the wind tester specially set up by the American military at the border of Pearl Harbor shows that the Seahorse has broken through the moving speed of 70 meters per second, and the bottom pressure is close to 1,000 pascals.
In other words, if the Seahorse is placed on land, there is no threat at all, and the collapse of a house is small, and it is only a matter of minutes for a large tree to be uprooted or an entire building to be toppled.
Almost at the same time, the Federal Weather Service issued the ultimate black warning to the world with the help of the media!
"All of them are in a safe area immediately!" Lieutenant General Mitchell waved his hand at James on the dock in the distance, and shouted hoarsely: "Pull up the wind net immediately!" ”
It was too late, but it was too soon, but as soon as Vice Admiral Mitchell gave the emergency measures, a huge cruiser was violently blown down, and collapsed on the surface of the sea like a giant, and finally sank to the bottom of the sea, and then, some soldiers who were still standing on the deck in a daze were also swept into the sky by the Seahorse at lightning speed.
Listening to the heart-rending wail in the wind, Mitchell waved his frantic hands in the wind and shouted again: "Don't stand on a high place, come back quickly......"
"General, it's too late." At this time, the adjutant who had been with Mitchell all the year round came to his side and said with a solemn face: "No. 0126 has broken through the maximum wind we have encountered since the end of the Dark Ages, and if we don't build a windproof wall, I'm afraid that even our soldiers in the inner harbor will have the same fate." ”
It seemed to be a big decision, closed his eyes and pondered, and after a while, the former said without any further delay: "Just do what you say." ”
Hearing this, the adjutant quickly gave orders to the whole army with a gloomy face.
"General, wait a little longer, none of our soldiers on the front line have withdrawn......"
"We can't wait any longer, if we continue like this, in less than a minute, all of us will be swept into the sky, drifted for a few days and nights, and then buried in this vast sea." Lieutenant General Mitchell turned his head and said solemnly: "There are only a small number of soldiers in charge of guarding the border, and the daredevils of the Federation Empire are still in the inner harbor, and I can't watch them suffer the same tragedy." ”
This is a very simple pros and cons to weigh, after a short period of thought, Yang Lei dispelled the idea he had just now.
Indeed, most of the fleets guarding the Pearl Harbor border day and night to prevent the sudden invasion of the Japanese Empire are only naval soldiers of the American Empire, but those who are in the inner harbor are all supporters of the former, Yang Lei does not think that Vice Admiral Mitchell is cruel to sacrifice a small number of American Imperial Navy to win the lives of more Allied soldiers, on the contrary, he greatly admires his courage in front of the great right and wrong, which is a fearless spirit.
Soon, under James' personal command, all the front-line soldiers who could withdraw were immediately withdrawn to the interior of Pearl Harbor, and quickly pulled up a tall windbreak net with infantry chariots with the military port wharf as the boundary.
This is a kind of wall composed of steel structure, which can play a good role in blocking wind and dust, and after its surface has been sprayed with plastic, it is also rich in anti-ultraviolet, anti-aging, flame retardant, impact resistance, anti-static ability, and also reduces the cost of raw materials and improves its service life.
Generally, the steel windproof wall is mainly used in mines, power plants and other enterprise places, but in the later stage of development, some important military ports and wharves of the Federation have also adopted this kind of thing, but the most common is the desert and no man's land of long-term sandy weather, and the double-layer wind and dust suppression wall can be as high as 95% or more.
It is worth mentioning that the windproof net used by the federal military this time is produced by the Mecha Alliance, and the entire process is strictly controlled after stamping, welding, and final shaping.
In less than a minute, the windbreak wall that was ten meters high and surrounded the entire Pearl Harbor pier was pulled up by high-powered infantry chariots, and then the sappers of the inner harbor quickly ran forward and picked up the tools in their hands to fix it.
At this time, the strong wind that was originally whirring in Yang Lei's ears finally calmed down, but despite this, looking up at the soldiers who were blown into the sky outside the windbreak, Yang Lei couldn't help but feel a lot of cold in his heart, and all thoughts were lost.
