Fortunately, it's winter in the Southern Hemisphere.

The temperature is not too high yet.

Otherwise, the wounded were just treated with simple bandages.

Many have died from wound infections.

"Captain, we're running out of medical supplies."

The doctor, who still had blood stains on his disposable surgical gown, said in a sullen voice while wearing a mask.

The experimental ship was not a specialized medical ship in the first place.

The medical supplies carried were originally only the number of dozens of people on board.

And the capsized training ship had three or four hundred people on board.

Normal warships will logically not have so many.

But this is a training ship.

Quite a few sailors even took part in such a long mission for the first time.

Most of them are recruits, so the number is about 1.8 times that of a normal ship.

Probably less than 300 people were rescued by the experimental ship.

Among these people, except for a few lucky ones.

Almost everyone was injured.

As a result, the consumption of medical supplies on the ship has increased dramatically!

Even medical alcohol is lacking.

"The nearest land airports are more than a thousand kilometers away.

Even the fastest transport planes would take hours to airdrop supplies to us. ”

The captain lit a cigarette, took half of it in one puff, and then exhaled a large puff of smoke and said:

"Let's do our best to save their lives in these few hours."

After saying that, the captain looked at the minor wounded and sick lying on the helicopter deck:

"If they really can't survive, they can only blame their own bad lives."

The only doctor on the ship, hearing this, did not speak.

He is tired now and has just had three surgeries.

There are more than a dozen seriously ill numbers waiting for him in the back.

After waving his hand to show that he knew, he went headlong into the ship's improvised operating room.

"Captain, the base begs us to hold out a little longer."

The latest news from the signal corps said:

"There is already a transport plane carrying medical supplies, on the way to arrive."

The captain was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly snatched the record paper and looked at it.

Because it is a matter of life and death for hundreds of soldiers.

The entire system of Eagle Sauce has been running more efficiently than ever before.

PACOM quickly filled a C5 Galaxy heavy strategic transport aircraft with medical supplies.

A few hours after the accident, it was ready for take-off.

"After arriving at the predetermined sea area, complete the airdrop mission and leave without hurry, and investigate whether the battleship has really sunk."

Before the long-range transport plane took off, someone told the crew members.

Although before that, information was indeed received from the training ship.

But most people in PACOM are skeptical.

That's why it is hoped that the crew of the transport aircraft will take on a part-time role as a reconnaissance aircraft.

At the same time, thousands of miles away in the launch base.

The sinking of the battleship is also a topic of discussion.

"By the way, is this the first warship that Eagle Sauce has lost in years for non-war reasons?"

Someone said curiously.

Over the years, Eagle Sauce has provoked a lot of people because of its attacks all over the world, and there are still many ships that have been damaged in the war.

For example, four years ago, the warship Cole was attacked by a self-detonating dinghy.

Directly on the side of the side of the explosion of a dozen meters wide opening.

It was calculated that the dinghy could have been loaded with 250 kg of explosives.

And this time the training ships were even worse.

It almost confronted the power of 100-ton explosives.

And the explosion happened above the sea!

The blaster hardly detracts from anything!

Stunned, it applied to the ship.

Although the distance was farther, it was directly blown over by the wind and waves.

"I guess so."

Zhang Xingyang recalled the battleship accident of Eagle Sauce in recent years and said:

"Most of the non-war damage of previous warships was caused by mutual collisions caused by the overlapping routes of the two warships.

And this time, the warship was directly overturned by the shock wave and the wind and waves. ”

Although the launch base is thousands of miles away, I am afraid that the situation on the scene is clearer than that of Eagle Sauce, which is closer.

At that time, there was not only one experimental ship in the experimental area.

In space, there are several satellites staring.

One of them is a high-resolution reconnaissance satellite.

Satellite images showed that the battleship was overturned after holding out in less than five minutes in the wind and waves.

"They did it themselves, too."

Another researcher said with some disdain:

"It's been a long time since we announced, and they still don't want to break into the experimental area.

Thanks to this time, we are experimenting with a high-explosive warhead.

If only something else.

Hehe. ”

Everyone present knew what he meant.

But it didn't say it explicitly.

After all, nuclear testing is a matter of cessation in this era.

But even so, the explosion sent shockwaves around the world.

Especially countries that have deployed military satellites in space.

After all, firelight with a diameter of hundreds of meters, and clouds of smoke with a height of thousands of meters.

It's hard not to get everyone's attention.

Now it can be said that the eyes of the world's great powers are focused here.

Combined with the experiment notice issued by the Dragon Kingdom before this.

Everyone is speculating about what kind of weapon the other side is experimenting with.

Although many people first thought of nuclear weapons, radioactive materials were not detected at the radioactive testing station.

So in a short period of time, this speculation was ruled out.

"The show is still to come, this time there was such a big accident, I don't know if someone will come out to be responsible."

Everyone present was basically discussing with the mentality of watching the excitement.

They now knew that only half of the people rescued by the experimental ship had been rescued.

There was a small group of people who simply did not make it to the time when the experimental ship rescued them.

There are even some people who died directly in the shipwreck.

According to the message sent back by the experimental ship.

It has been determined that there are seventy or eighty dead.

Although in Eagle Sauce's army, as long as it does not die on the front line of the battlefield, it is not considered a sacrifice.

It is also difficult for these people to receive various pensions.

But the incident itself is big news.

Therefore, the initiative now is entirely in the hands of the domestic side.

Once a little wind is let out.

Eagle sauce's domestic media will definitely be like a vulture that sees carrion.

Crazy, overwhelming publicity!

"I don't know, the old chief, if they have discussed what the results have come out."

Zhang Xingyang thought while directing everyone to process the missile test data that came back.

The impact of this incident is unexpectedly great.

Even if only a large part of the people rescued by the experimental ship were saved.

That's more than 200 people!

These people are now all on their side.

With a little operation, the benefits are unimaginable.

But these have nothing to do with me for the time being.

It is still important to deal with the missile data.

In particular, the choice of the missile computing unit in the final is worth studying for yourself.

It even thinks that a warship of several thousand tons is not too valuable for the target.

The Navy is a "first-class person" in the Eagle Sauce Force!

Therefore, there is still some room for optimization in the internal judgment logic of the automatic tracking system.

Although it did destroy the battleship after the explosion.

Just when Zhang Xingyang began to bury his head in research.

The C5 "Galaxy" heavy strategic transport plane, which has already taken off, has also entered the airspace over the South Pacific Ocean.

The endless deep blue ocean of the South Pacific Ocean is for everyone on a transport plane.

It's a rare sight.

But at this time, no one has time to enjoy the view.

The command asked them to reach their intended targets as quickly as possible, and airdropped relief supplies.

Otherwise, those survivors who survived the shipwreck.

He is going to die from lack of medical supplies.

After nearly two hours of flight, the strategic transport plane finally arrived over the predetermined sea area.

Signal flares had already been pulled up on the experimental ship.

Bright red smoke wafted above the sea.

Directing the airdrop to the transport plane.

Huge transport planes, hovering low above the sea.

The rear cargo door has been opened.

Boxes of packed medical supplies, with the assistance of the crew.

Cargo airdrop equipment is used to quickly airdrop above the sea.

"Captain, this plane is big enough!"

Because the height of the transport aircraft is relatively low, it is even more huge in the eyes of the people on board.

A large aircraft with a wingspan of more than 60 meters is indeed very large at an altitude of several hundred meters.

"Don't care how old he is, hurry up and prepare, the medical supplies are still waiting for us to fish in the sea!"

The old captain kicked the other party and said directly.

The old captain has also been a soldier all his life, and he didn't expect that he would be able to see Eagle Sauce's strategic transport plane in this way in his life.

The drop boxes in the sky have opened their parachutes.

It is like dandelions, floating on the blue sea.

These crates are surrounded by floating debris that makes it less likely to sink into the sea after landing.

The two well-equipped dinghys roared towards the place where the drop box had landed, using their own motors.

With boxes of medical supplies delivered to the ship.

The situation of the seriously wounded, who were almost unable to hold on, finally stabilized.

However, there were still a few seriously injured players, and the luck was not so good.

Didn't make it until the time when the medical supplies arrived.

But even so, these seriously injured people are only hanging for their lives.

If you want to get good treatment, you still have to go to a regular big hospital on land.

"What, there's a hospital ship coming?"

The captain said with some surprise after receiving the latest news.

The high-level exchanges between the two sides seem to be much faster than expected.

In a few hours, the solution has been communicated.

The experimental ship stayed in place and waited.

Try to keep the lives of these wounded alive.

A hospital ship is approaching from their southwest direction, and it is expected to be there in thirty hours.

During this time, try not to die again.

However, the old chief finally whispered to the captain: "It's really not delayed, and it's okay." ”

The experimental ship was thus parked on the wide, lonely sea.

But it's not like you're doing nothing.

Although the best time for the rescue has been missed.

However, many people were still dispatched to the surrounding waters to search for whether anyone had been swept away by the waves.

After all, the waves were very big at that time.

Of course, the captain did not let everyone out on a search and rescue mission.

Half of the people were left behind to watch over the wounded and survivors.

After all, many of them still have the ability to act.

If they have any bad thoughts, it's bad.

So the captain even took out the exoskeleton mechs.

Under the shock of the two 12.7mm heavy machines on the mecha, this group of guys who don't even have pistols won't have any bad thoughts.

They were disarmed before they could be rescued.

Those who were not injured were kept in a warehouse.

A soldier in a mecha watched them from the inside.

In addition to this, there is also a deck where the lightly wounded are staying in the key defense area.

There weren't that many places to stay on the boat.

The lightly wounded could only stay in tents that had just been dropped after dark.

Drink one of the few hot springs to warm your body.

Hot water is also a rare resource at this time.

With this hot water warm, their mood can stabilize a lot.

In the afternoon, he was released to a search and rescue mission farther away.

Indeed, a few people who drifted farther away were also found.

It's just that some are still alive, and some are dead.

Most of those who died were injured when the wind and waves rushed over.

Then I soaked in the icy waters for hours.

As a result, while vomiting blood, he lost his temperature and died.

More than a dozen people were found, but only three survived.

And two of them are also unconscious.

If it weren't for the timely arrival of the search and rescue team.

I'm afraid there is only one person who can survive.

"So the training ship really sank?"

After the crew of the transport plane returned, the commander of the command asked personally.

None of them know exactly what that is going on yet.

The latest news, apart from the Dragon Kingdom, is only from the training ship before it sank.

And now hours have passed.

"There was no sign of a warship in that area.

If the information given to us is correct, then the training ship is estimated to have really sunk. ”

The captain of the transport plane said almost without hesitation.

At that time, in order to find out, they specially circled several times.

And deliberately lowered its height.

I even saw the wounded soldiers lying on the deck of the experimental ship.

Almost without hesitation, the captain continued:

"What they said should be true, we saw quite a few wounded in our uniforms on the deck of that ship."

"So, the training ship really sank."

The commander said somewhat speechlessly.

The impact of this incident is too bad.

He couldn't take it anymore.

It has to be reported to the Pentagon.

Before that, everyone thought that the training ship should not have sunk, but some personnel fell into the sea.

But now it seems that the real situation is much worse than that.

Forcing himself to cheer himself up, the commander said:

"Prepare for this, a new round of airdrops is about to take off.

Our soldiers need you! ”
