Chapter 256: USS Austin

George? Colonel Runes has personally flown to the A** event base in Busan, country H, this base belongs to the fourth quartermaster detachment, is a large storage and transportation transfer station of the A army, because the sea lion troops have entered here is also more lively, because this is originally a large barracks, so the houses are very solid permanent housing, the conditions are very good, when Runes came to Colonel Kate's command center, Colonel Kate was discussing the setting of logistics supply points with the officers, and saw Runes walking in, All the officers straightened up and gave the standard military salute, and Runes returned the salute and immediately walked over to Colonel Kate, whom they had met at a drinking party, when the two men had a one-year difference in rank,

After shaking hands warmly, Colonel Kate asked his adjutant to pour two cups of coffee, and sat down in front of a group of unfamiliar officers, Running asked with a smile, "What were you discussing just now, is it that all the equipment has not yet arrived?" ”

Colonel Kate sighed softly and said: "Alas, there is a batch of control equipment and special batteries that were loaded into the wrong ship in the middle of the way, and it is said that they have been found, and they are on an amphibious assault ship called 'Austin'. ”

"Oh, don't you have to go through a barcode scan to get into the shipping system?" Puzzled, Runes asked,

Kate smiled and said, "But it's people who put barcodes, and it is inevitable that mistakes will be made when someone participates, and that's the explanation I got, hehe." ”

Colonel Runes asked worriedly, "Is this equipment important, and will it affect our operations?" ”

"Of course, these are important control equipment for small unmanned fighters and reconnaissance aircraft, and I can't make any hasty actions before they arrive."

"Where is the USS Austin now?" Runes asked,

"It has already left the naval base of country B, and it is said that it will return to the home port base for repairs, and a fast transport ship is chasing it to retrieve our supplies, hoping that even if it catches up, God willing."

Colonel Kate's words made Runes even more worried, and he asked a little puzzled, "Haven't your equipment and troops always acted together, what happened this time?" ”

"We have suffered heavy losses at the Sea Lion Force Base on Zhongluo Island, and we have been assigned this mission by emergency assembly before we can complete the replenishment, perhaps because we are the closest Sea Lion Force to here."

Hearing Colonel Kate say this, Runes did not lose his anger just now, and asked in a low voice: "What is the situation on those two islands, although I have read the report, I do not fully believe it. ”

Colonel Kate looked at several of his subordinates who were talking to each other, and then lowered his voice and said to Runes, who was sitting beside him: "Wandao is all finished, there is not a single bird feather left, Zhongluo Island is relatively large, and it is an underwater attack, there is only half of the island left, if our base is not at the other end far from the center of the explosion, it is also complete, God bless us." ”

Runes nodded, only then did he believe that the content of the report he saw was not alarmist, he stood up and patted Colonel Kate on the shoulder and said: "Okay, you guys will have a meeting again, I will go directly to the top for the problem of equipment, it will not affect our normal operations, I will let my adjutant Major Kester keep in touch with your department, we must start the investigation operation as soon as possible, I believe that the main force of the Yongan Party has been hiding, we must find them as soon as possible, and carry out a rapid attack, Presumably they're still in a panic, and when they get to their feet, they'll be in trouble, and they may have the help of aliens. ”

"Aliens,." Colonel Kate looked at Runes with wide eyes,

"Well, it may be a bunch of 'small' aliens, which is also the main reason why you need to deploy this elite force, otherwise the 6th Air Assault Brigade stationed nearby will be able to handle it, but this is not a regular battle, and they may not be able to defeat the opponent."

After saluting each other, Colonel Kate looked at the back of Runes leaving, and he knew why this operation was a direct combat order issued by the supreme military commander, and it turned out that his elite sea lion troops were going to face a group of 'aliens',

……

In the western Pacific, Rear Admiral Robbut, the captain of the large amphibious assault ship Austin, suddenly received an order from the upper peak to stop his advance, the reason was to wait for a catamaran fast transport ship to come and pick up a batch of emergency supplies, because it was not to carry out a combat mission, the Austin unloaded the equipment such as armed helicopters, drones and landing craft, as well as combatants such as marines, and the Austin could reach a maximum speed of 30 knots per hour, and only one escort destroyer was escorting it. Rear Admiral Robt, who received the order, had no choice but to order his formation to temporarily stop advancing and wait for the arrival of the catamaran transport.

The Pacific Ocean in the middle of August was not very peaceful, General Robt knew that several huge storms were hovering in the nearby ocean, he wanted to set sail to his destination as soon as possible, a long vacation was waiting for himself to enjoy, Robt standing on the bridge did not notice a small splash on the sea not far away, the small wave was hidden by the waves that were not very high at this time, and after a while, it was very faint. The clouds floated up from the water where the waves had splashed, and flew slowly towards the Austin, but the wind still blew him in the other direction, and the clouds struggled to float out of a zigzag shape and slowly move towards the target.

After waiting for nearly two hours, the catamaran finally dragged a long wake and sailed close to the huge hull of the Austin, after the connection was firm, the transport cable began to transport the materials that had been prepared for transfer on the Austin, and the materials had been delivered after half an hour, a quartermaster officer on the catamaran actually unpacked and carefully checked the transfer materials before waving goodbye to his peers on the side of the Austin ship, letting go of the steel cable, and the catamaran began to return.

As soon as the transport ship reached a safe distance, Rear Admiral Robt immediately ordered to start his huge battleship and continue to move towards its destination.

The faint 'cloud' had already flown over the foredeck at this time, drifting to the command cabin, 'he' seemed to be particularly interested here, the busy officers in the command cabin were constantly busy in front of their respective display screens, even if anyone paid attention, they would not notice this 'cloud' that was much lighter than cigarette smoke, after wandering around for a few circles, the 'cloud' disappeared into the computer room, and soon after, the core computer chipset emitted a faint green light......

The next few days of sailing went smoothly, Robt rarely went to the bridge again, but stayed in his comfortable cabin and enjoyed a comfortable time, and soon arrived at the end of Pearl Harbor, Robt began to plan how to spend his vacation, at this time the bridge command room suddenly heard the voice of the vice captain urgently called, Robt had to leave his cabin and walked towards the bridge,
