Chapter 621 Today's sky is sunny and the waves are high, and the D flag flutters on the mast of the lead ship......
The warship will have a set of signal lights specially designed for light communication, even in the midday sun near the equator.
A few kilometers away, the Fan Wulao received the message sent by the Huangshi.
"Captain, send us a signal and say ......"
The signal officer on Annan's side was only halfway through his speech when he was interrupted by Ruan Yingjun:
"I can understand the language of the lantern, you go back to the battle position first!"
Just kidding, he was thinking about how to hide this matter, and there was a stupid reporter next to him who kept clamoring to show some colors on the other side, if he asked the other party to report the signal sent by the Huaxia people, would it be good?
"That'...... How do we respond? β
The signal officer looked at the captain and asked in a dazed and slightly panicked tone.
Because Ruan Yingjun had been at the helm all along, most people still didn't know that their boat had sailed to a place where the donkey's lips were not in line with the preset mission route, but they were still in the northwest waters of Nansha.
And the appearance of a Chinese ship in this place is more intriguing.
Combined with the light words they had just received, the other party said that they were moving in their own waters......
This naturally made the signal officer thinkβ
Could it be a repeat of 1988?
You must know that in that conflict, Annan's record was not good.
After the whole battle, only the "first shot" in the physical sense injured the arm of one person on the Huaxia side, and no other losses were caused after that.
And Annan himself lost two patrol ships, a large landing ship, and about 200 people.
In such a context, he must still be a little panicked.
"Just go back, say that our ship is in a normal state of navigation, and has no intention of provoking a conflict, and if an accident occurs, you will bear all the consequences!"
The content of this reply highlights an ambiguity.
If you listen to the first half, it seems to be soft.
But there seems to be a full provocation behind it.
"Captain Ruan, what did the other party just send me?"
Ruan Yingjun snorted coldly:
"It's nothing more than some routine after the meeting, no need to think about it!"
After finishing his words, he changed his words, and the concern in his tone was a little deliberate:
"The conflict is imminent, the rest is left to us, you are all civilians, you should not appear in the most dangerous place of the bridge, please go back to the relatively safe lower cabin!"
Naturally, he couldn't really care about these reporters who were in the way, but just let them leave the ship, and then what happened next was up to him.
However, the other party highlighted a clue at this time:
"No! It is rare to have the opportunity to use the camera to record the footage of front-line soldiers expelling foreign enemies and protecting the safety of our country, how can they hide at this time? β
"Captain Ruan, you have your mission, and we also have ours, don't worry, we are not afraid of danger!"
The two sentences stood out loudly, and the other TV station staff next to them were still a little frightened, but after hearing this statement, they didn't even have the intention of backing down.
Seeing this, Ruan Yingjun could only scold in his heart, but on the surface, he still had to show admiration, and it was impossible to persuade anything.
It's a long paragraph, but it's just a few minutes.
However, for Fan Wulao and Ruan Yingjun, there is obviously not much time left for them to maneuver......
β¦β¦
At the same time, inside the Yellowstone.
The distance between the two ships has now been reduced to the reach of even small-caliber rapid-fire guns, and despite the superiority of the ships themselves, most of the people on board will inevitably be nervous when facing a provocative enemy for the first time.
As a veteran who participated in the March 14 naval battle, political commissar Sheng Jingyong was mobilizing before the war through a microphone.
The content is naturally about the battle of the year.
When I heard that only one of our people was injured in the arm, so that every time we commemorated this naval battle, we couldn't even pay tribute to the martyrs, the atmosphere on the whole ship instantly became relaxed-
Paying attention to the enemy is a matter of training in peacetime and preparing for combat.
Before this kind of encounter, you must not increase the morale of others and destroy your own prestige.
Of course, Captain Lin Weizhi didn't pay too much attention to what his old partner had just said.
At this time, he was staring with a telescope at the Annan frigate, which also seemed to have no intention of retreating.
"The lights on the other side say that they are in normal navigation, and if there is a conflict, we will be responsible for the consequences?"
Looking at the light words that Fan Wulao responded to, Lin Weizhi was directly laughed at angrily.
He put down his binoculars and turned his head to look at the co-captain behind him:
"Go, notify the Signal Department, hang the Delta Signal Flag for me!"
"Delta flag?"
Wei Zhuo was stunned.
In his naval career, he had never raised the flag alone.
Because after the 70s, after the unified maritime signal standard, a Delta flag indicates that its own ship is out of control, pay attention to avoidance.
"Yes, Delta."
Lin Weizhi nodded:
"Didn't they say they were in normal sailing condition?"
"Then our ship is just not obeying the call now, we must crash into them and let them pay attention to avoid it, otherwise in case of a collision, we may not have a chance to catch people!"
Wei Zhuo, who finally understood what the captain meant, struggled to hold back his smile and immediately turned to inform the signal officer.
When it comes to fighting, you still have to be serious......
"Report!"
Lin Weizhi, who had just given the signal command, heard the communicator's voice almost seamlessly:
"The superiors replied to us, saying that our side will not take the initiative to cause trouble, will not be cowardly, and will take appropriate measures to safeguard the dignity and sovereignty of the country."
"In addition, the South China Sea Fleet Aviation has sent two planes that participated in the test to prepare for the return flight to support us, and the fighters on duty are also taking off, and they are expected to arrive within 40 minutes!"
"Whew-"
Lin Weizhi breathed a long sigh of relief.
The superior's statement was actually very clear, and it was basically the same as the meaning of the instructions he had made before.
And more importantly, this time, they can be strongly supported by aviation.
Although the conflict in 1988 ended in a great victory for our army, because the sea area where the incident occurred was too far away from Qiong Province, our army's air force could not reach it, and once the Su-22 attack planes in Annam launched an air attack, it would be extremely unfavorable to our side.
Therefore, after the victory, our fleet had to quickly retreat, and it was not able to continue to consolidate and expand the results of the battle.
This has also led to Annan's becoming more and more arrogant in related matters.
And now...... Times have changed!
Thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river.
Annam Air Force?
Su-22?
If he really dares to make trouble, he will definitely have no return!
Aviation is the confidence of surface ships!
Lin Weizhi, who had completely lost his concerns, directly ordered the marine engineering department to urgently enter the third.
That is, the maximum power of starting the diesel engine.
"The brave wins when they meet on a narrow road, I want to see if these monkeys have the courage to touch us today!"
