"Move quickly!" Su Qin looked at the radar information and confirmed that the surrounding area was safe.
"The combat alert has been lifted and the level 2 alert has been entered. We will immediately enter the interception route and expect to engage the enemy in two hours."
Naval ship operations inevitably require long-term maneuvers. At this time, it is impossible to maintain a high level of combat readiness forever, which consumes too much energy and physical strength of the crew.
Five minutes later, Taishan finally started to set sail again, taking the shortest route to Mars. Su Qin had to plan to intercept the target very close to Mars because the target's speed was a bit fast.
In fact, he didn't want to go to Mars. Mars should still be an epidemic area, and he didn't want to disrupt his plan to give the crew a holiday.
…
"Oh my god, where did they get such a thing?" Two hours later, the battle alarm did not sound again.
After the radar captured the target, Su Qin pointed the astronomical telescope placed on the roof of the apartment building together with the long-range radar at the target position accurately measured by the radar. As a result, he saw three huge water balls.
"The data link cannot be connected yet, and the VHF call is being used." replied the person in the telecommunications room.
The Taishan now has complete aerospace communication equipment, and the three opposite ships should also have it. However, if the directional antennas of both sides are not aimed at each other, these equipments will not have the advantage of communication distance, so at this moment, communication must still rely on Ordinary naval military ship communication system on the boat.
"Maintain the current course, we continue to approach the target." The distance seemed to be still a bit far, so Su Qin could only continue to let the Taishan approach the target while continuing to observe.
The ship among the three water balloons is obviously also using radar to search, otherwise it would not continue to roll its hull.
However, they should be using their own ship-based radar, which is far inferior to the land-based long-range early warning radar on the Taishan, so they still have no response to the Taishan at this moment.
The space environment has a great impact on these electromagnetic wave equipment. On the contrary, large-diameter optical telescopes are more reliable.
"Isn't your superior stingy?" Lisa began to treat herself less and less like an outsider on the Tarzan, and she was the first to complain.
"The one in the middle, rotating around its own axis, is a Fuling light frigate, right? That makes sense. Are the two at the back frigates? Are they called Yiyi?"
Su Qin was speechless and had no choice but to talk about him. In fact, he had already seen it.
"Look at what's around that frigate? It's a green patch floating on the water. Is it some kind of plant?"
"You are not so anxious to start environmental modification on Mars, right? And it is not necessary inside the protective shield. Outside the protective shield, you should not start with aquatic plants!"
If Su Qin is a person who has dreamed of being a pilot, then when he plays this real pilot, his dream is that of an astronaut. Of course her dreams include terraforming Mars.
"Is that one the flagship?" Wang Qinyun on the other side couldn't care less about what they were saying.
"Will Xu Siqi be up there?"
"Uh..." This question brought Su Qin and Lisa back from their wild imagination.
"Should be there?" Su Qin had no way of knowing whether Xu Siqi would be there.
However, as the two brothers are the only two knights on the earth, after Su Qin leaves, if there are other actions on the earth, there is no reason that Xu Siqi will not be involved.
Even with the core console of the spacecraft, Su Qin was unwilling to admit that Xu Siqi had already reached the level of viscount.
He didn't notice that Wang Qinyun was so excited that he sneaked out of the bridge.
"Look! They finally noticed us." What attracted the attention of others was that the three targets on the screen finally stopped rolling and turned their upper hemispheres towards the Tarzan.
"The radar must have finally responded. Oh, they actually brought an astronomical telescope."
I saw that the light frigate also carried barges on both sides. It was almost the same as the Taishan. The frigate was still moored, and there was even a springboard leading to the barge.
There are also some containers piled on those barges. The highest container is obviously a specially modified astronomical theodolite cabin. The astronomical telescope that replaces the theodolite lens is not generally large in diameter.
"They should be able to see us. Now, the data link can't be connected. Let's find a signal light first."
Su Qin was still thinking about how to find a signal light next to his astronomical telescope and try to send Morse code, when suddenly a prompt message popped up on the monitor in front of him.
"Laser data link request connection? When did we have such a thing?" Su Qin was confused, but the aerospace equipment operator next to him promptly reminded him, "There are some, we have them. It is installed next to the astronomical telescope. Coaxially mounted.”
When the operator turned around and saw Su Qin's angry face, he remembered that he was blaming himself for not telling him about such a good thing earlier, and quickly continued to explain.
"No one knew what it was used for when it was installed. This thing itself was used for networking between satellites. At that time, it was only said that it could be used to target communication satellites and transmit signals in emergencies. It should be able to establish a communication link with the ground. Now it looks like Come and expand it to new uses.”
Su Qin then retracted his angry gaze, activated the laser communication equipment, and accepted the connection.
At a distance where radio communication is not yet possible, the bandwidth of the laser communication data link is quite good. It seems that the space environment full of cosmic rays is really unfriendly to radio equipment.
However, the other party's call sign displayed on the data link was a big surprise to Su Qin.
"Coast Police 32307? Real or fake? Are you kidding me?" However, the compatible data encryption format and key will not be wrong. Su Qin can only solve his confusion by calling and asking.
"This is Yinhe Taishan, requesting a call." He immediately established a voice channel. Anyway, there was not much data information to be exchanged between the two.
"Coast police 32307 received it, please speak." The voice on the other side was unfamiliar, and it was definitely not Xu Siqi.
"You..." Su Qin didn't know what to say for a moment, but finally decided to be tactful, because at least the two escort boats behind must be the navy, "How do you use the coast guard call sign?"
The other party first pressed the send button and let out a long sigh, assuming a posture of "I knew you would ask this", and then said, "This ship has been assigned to the Navy, and all personnel on board are The Navy has not changed the ship's registration and painting just because of mission requirements, but the navy flag is hung on our mast."
At this time, the two parties approaching at high speed have entered visual distance.
