The high-power searchlight on the top of the mast of the No. 53 ship was turned on, and the light beam shone over, making the situation ahead immediately clear.蝳
Li Hai saw a shocking scene.
A fishing boat with the string number Nanyu 20022 is rushing towards an unknown armed fishing boat without a string number in a desperate manner.
It was an armed fishing boat, and the machine gun mount on the rear deck was clearly aimed at the Nanyu 20022 fishing boat!
Li Hai quickly issued an order: "Prepare for level one battle! Call out!"
"yes!"
Gunnery Chief Zhang Lei immediately ordered the main gun to enter combat readiness, and the muzzle of the main gun quickly aimed at the unknown armed fishing boat!
At the same time, orders to prepare for battle were issued to the entire ship.蝳
Chang Haizhou was worried that Li Hai did not have the experience to deal with it, and when he was about to pass over Li Hai and issue a new order, he heard Li Hai issue a second order!
"Fire warning shots at unknown armed fishing boats!" Li Hai said flatly.
Zhang Lei immediately ordered the main gun to fire warning shots.
The muzzle was lowered a bit, and a 100mm shell was fired at the right side of the bow of the unknown armed fishing boat!
The explosion of the high-explosive warhead caused a splash of water, and the sound of the gunfire was very clear.
The people on the unknown armed fishing boat were shocked to see a warship of several thousand tons sailing over at high speed with a thunderous attitude. They immediately gave up the idea of shooting at the fishing boat Nanyu 20022!
Their ships simply could not withstand the bombardment of 100mm naval guns.蝳
Nanyu 20022 also discovered the No. 52 ship. When the captain saw the five-star red flag on the mast, he was so excited that he burst into tears. As if inspired, he increased the throttle and crashed into the stern of the unknown armed fishing boat.
"Zhizhizhi..."
With an unpleasant sound of steel friction, the bow of Nanyu 20022 hit the stern of the unknown armed fishing boat, directly destroying the main propeller of the unknown armed fishing boat.
The people on the unknown armed fishing boat gritted their teeth with hatred, but they did not dare to act rashly, let alone do anything to the Nanyu 20022 fishing boat.
Because there is a thousands-ton frigate armed to the teeth beside me!
The whole process happened in a very short time, which was an eye-opener for Li Hai, who had never seen such a violent collision at sea.
Chang Haizhou suddenly said, "Don't intercept them, let them go."
Li Hai suddenly looked at Chang Haizhou, only to see the navigator pointing at the navigation chart to indicate to him. He took a closer look, oh, it turned out that he had entered the high seas.
The other party did not directly threaten the fishing boat Nanyu 20022, so the No. 53 ship had no reason to use force.
After all, this is high seas, and ships from all countries have freedom of navigation.
As for why the Nanyu 20022 fishing boat clashed with this unknown armed fishing boat, that is under the jurisdiction of the Coast Guard.
For the No. 53 ship, as long as there is no danger to our fishing boats, it can save a few rounds of 100 mm caliber naval gun shells.
The unknown armed fishing boat dragged its broken body away in despair. The unknown armed personnel on board stared at the No. 53 ship resentfully. They suddenly thought that this was just an old frigate of the Chinese Navy that would soon be retired from active service. When they thought that the Chinese Navy was building They have no thoughts about new destroyers with tens of thousands of tons at every turn.
Chang Haizhou watched the navigation lights on the mast of the unidentified armed fishing boat gradually fade away and said with relief, "The situation in this sea area is very complicated. Fishing boats from various countries operating here often clash, but collisions are still rare. ."靳
"Mr. Chang, are you worried about me firing?" Li Hai said with a smile.
Chang Haizhou smiled and nodded.
As a young person, it is normal for you not to be able to hold back your anger when encountering something like this.
Li Hai said, "I often encountered similar situations when I was working at Forget Reef, but at that time we mainly used aircraft to protect Chinese fishing boats."
"Self-forgetting Reef? Miss Forgetting Reef on the island? It has been turned into an air station for our navy." Chang Haizhou said.
"Yes, several comrades and I went there on a temporary basis and were responsible for the preliminary construction of the air station." Li Hai hid what he shouldn't have said.
Chang Haizhou suddenly realized, "No wonder your superiors asked you to command this operation as a trainee captain."
Li Hai smiled awkwardly.
"Navy 53, thank you, thank you!" Nanyu No. 20022's call came from channel 16, and the voice was very excited.
Li Hai picked up the transmitter and said, "Nanyu 20022, our ship is operating nearby. If you encounter any situation, please call me on channel 16."
"Understood! Thank you to the People's Soldiers! Long live the People's Navy!"
The call from the fishing boat made the soldiers in the cockpit of the ship have sore noses. Everyone deeply understood the truth. No matter whether it is an old ship or a new ship, a good ship can protect the people behind it.
Ship No. 53 did not leave immediately, but waited there for more than 30 minutes before two coast guard ships arrived.
Li Hai stared at the two brand-new coast guard boats in front of him with a look of surprise on his face. The helmsman Chen Yun was also surprised.蝳
Chen Yun said, "Is this a coast guard ship?"
The hull is very similar to the New Youth, and the firepower it carries is also very considerable. Except for the lack of vertical launchers and anti-ship missiles, it has everything it should have.
"If it weren't for the Coast Guard's livery, I would have thought it was the new young people from our detachment." Li Hai shook his head and sighed.
Chang Haizhou pointed to the coast guard ship in front of him, which was much larger than the No. 53 ship, and asked with a smile, "Do you know how this model of coast guard ship came about?"
Chen Yun asked doubtfully, "Is it the new young man who picked us up?"
Shaking his head, Chang Haizhou said, "The ship they used was a failed bid for a new frigate that year, so its appearance and performance are very similar to our new youth."
Li Hai understood and said, dumbfounded, "The Coast Guard is such a thief."
"No." Chang Haizhou also shook his head helplessly.
Chen Yun said in surprise, "They are so smart. This saves a lot of trouble."
"The key is to save a lot of money and build it directly with the military ship plan. The performance will only be excess but not insufficient. Moreover, our navy will choose the remaining plan. The supplier's asking price will definitely not be very high. It will save a lot of time and go back and forth. It’s all money!” Li Hai laughed.
Chen Yun suddenly realized, "No wonder their new ship is also serving like dumplings. It's so smart."
Chang Haizhou smiled and said, "The boss of the armed police force is from the army and is from the southeast coast. He knows the navy very well."
"Tsk tsk..." Li Hai sighed with emotion.
A plan that fails in the bidding does not mean that it is a failure, but that it is eliminated after the Navy selects the best. For the Coast Guard, there is no need to follow the Navy's standards.蝳
To put it bluntly, the ships used by the Coast Guard do not need to comply with military standards, but the Coast Guard directly chose the military standard plan. Everyone knows their little thoughts.
Of course, a military-standard ship is better!
The Coast Guard is smart, because the Navy selects two or three plans from several plans, and then selects the plan that best meets their requirements. It goes through layers of selection, and those who are eliminated are of course excellent ones. plan.
So everyone saw that many captains of the Coast Guard were similar to some ships of the Navy, and the only difference in appearance was the painting.
Li Hai suddenly thought of something and said subconsciously, "Isn't the Coast Guard's 10,000-ton patrol ship also a failed plan for the 10,000-ton cruise ship?"
Chen Yun thought about it carefully and said in surprise, "It's very possible! However, the Coast Guard's 10,000-ton ship has long been in service, and ours is still in the shipyard."
"The construction of a destroyer is more complicated, and just outfitting it requires a lot of time. The Coast Guard's coast guard ships are not that complicated," Li Hai said.蝳
Chang Haizhou smiled and said, "The appearance of the 10,000-ton cruise ship has almost been revealed. It does look somewhat similar to the coast guard ship of the Coast Guard."
Yao Yuan shook his head in confusion.
It's obviously a plan that the Navy doesn't want, but their 10,000-ton ship has been in service for several years.
After handing over with the Coast Guard, Ship No. 53 sped away from the sea area where the incident occurred, leaving an old figure behind the two Coast Guard ships and Nanyu 20022, looking a little lonely under the moonlight.
The Coast Guard ship quickly dispatched a small boat carrying personnel carrying repair tools and medicines to board the Nanyu 20022 fishing boat. They conducted medical examinations on the crew and checked the condition of the fishing boat. Two large ships guarded the Nanyu 20022 fishing boat. in.
The crew members felt extremely safe. They never imagined that they could be protected by their own navy and coast guard ships in such a short period of time, nearly two thousand kilometers away from the mainland.
Under the moonlight, Ship No. 53 sailed towards Dolan Island with steady steps.蝳
Dolan Island is an uninhabited and uninhabited island. During World War II, the Japanese army deployed a naval supply station on this island to replenish fuel for passing warships. There was a permanent brigade of troops stationed there.
After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the U.S. military used naval guns to conduct a sweeping attack on Dolan Island. A large group of Japanese troops and a fuel supply station were wiped out in the fierce bombing.
Later, the US military found that Dolan Island was of no value to them and did not station troops on it. Later, it used Dolan Island as a shooting range. Dolan Island gradually evolved into a shooting range-style desert island that anyone can use.
Of course, the Chinese Navy has the right to conduct routine training on Dolan Island.
What is surprising is that Dolan Island, which does not have fresh water, actually grew trees again after being devastated by the war. Now, it is a typical South Pacific jungle island.
The "Barbarians" chose to conduct island jungle combat training here, which can be said to be quite suitable.
When the sky was dark, Ship No. 53 arrived at the designated sea area thirty-seven minutes ahead of schedule.蝳
Li Hai, Chang Haizhou, and Chen Meng came outside the cockpit and stared at the sea ahead in the cool sea breeze.
The sea conditions were not very good, the waves were about three meters high, and the wind was so strong that it was not suitable for helicopters to take off and land.
Li Hai had a background in flying airplanes. He was very sensitive to the wind and immediately made a judgment that the carrier-based helicopter could not play its role.
Ship No. 53 is like a lone boat undulating with the waves on the endless sea without anchoring. The power unit maintains 60% power operation and uses the propulsion system to maintain the same position. All positions are in two positions. Level combat readiness state, able to enter combat state in the shortest possible time.
"The Great Wall is going to be late." Chen Meng said with a frown.
Chang Haizhou picked up his telescope and carefully searched the sea ahead. "There are unpredictable weather conditions. The route of the Great Wall passes through the sea and there are storms. Being late is inevitable."
"Great Wall" is the code name of the submarine responsible for the response. It is a new AIP conventional submarine. This is the reason why a submarine detachment participated in the meeting before the operation.蝳
Li Hai said, "There are still thirty minutes, they may be able to catch up."
When the rendezvous time is determined in the combat plan, we must try our best to arrive within the specified time. This is one of the magic weapons for the people's army to win.
However, the situation at sea and under sea is complex and various unexpected factors may have an impact. Therefore, there must be a backup plan.
Unfortunately, the backup plan is to use a carrier-based helicopter to transport Chen Meng and the others directly to Dolan Island, but the current wind restricts the take-off and landing of the carrier-based helicopter.
As time passed, the sea conditions showed signs of escalation. Ship No. 53 was swaying more and more, and Li Hai had to grab the guardrail to stand firm.
"Deputy Commander Chen, I'm afraid we have to prepare for the third plan." Li Hai said loudly. The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and it was difficult for the other party to hear clearly without raising the volume.
Just as Chen Meng was about to speak, Chang Haizhou suddenly pointed forward, "Look! The Great Wall is here!"
In a very primitive joint method, the Great Wall floats up and uses the navigation lights on the mast to send out one long and two short light signals.
Li Hai quickly ran into the cockpit, and the navigator reported, "Recognized, it's the Great Wall, and contact is being established."
A few seconds later, the navigator handed the microphone to Li Hai.
Li Hai called, "Great Wall, I am 53, I see you."
"53, I am the Great Wall, ready to receive personnel, over."
Li Hai gestured to Chen Meng. Chen Meng nodded, saluted each other and said goodbye, and immediately went to lead the team members to prepare.
"Are you confident?" Li Hai asked the helmsman Chen Yun.蝳
The current sea conditions make it impossible to use a connecting boat, so we can only directly connect with the Great Wall in a side-by-side manner, allowing Chen Meng and others to board the Great Wall boat through the soft gangway.
Chen Yun nodded heavily, "No problem."
Li Hai then called Great Wall, "Chang Wall, please keep your posture, I'll lean over, it's over."
"The Great Wall understands."
Chang Haizhou began to direct without hesitation, and Li Hai took the opportunity to learn. The engine room adjusted the power according to Chang Haizhou's instructions. Chen Yun steered and adjusted the direction and attitude of the ship. The No. 53 ship slowly moved sideways toward the Great Wall. The whole process was very slow. If there was an accidental collision, the Great Wall boat would be very Uncomfortable.
After more than ten minutes of precise operation, the No. 53 ship docked with the Great Wall boat. Chen Meng's team successfully boarded the Great Wall boat. The No. 53 ship broke away and watched the Great Wall boat quickly dive and disappear into the turbulent waves...
At this time, the sky was already bright, and a layer of fog floated on the sea, making it difficult to tell which was the sky and the sea.蝳
According to the plan, the No. 53 ship used Dolan Island as the center point and cruised around the island within an 18-kilometer radius, simulating providing cover and fire support to the combat forces on the island. In reality, it kept other ships away from Dolan Island to avoid accidents. Misunderstanding, it is equivalent to establishing a no-navigation zone with a radius of 18 kilometers centered on Dolan Island.
Soon, Li Hai realized the necessity of establishing a no-navigation zone. The sea search radar found an unknown ship coming from the east at a very fast speed. Intelligence analysts were working hard to identify the characteristics of the ship's radar reflection signal. …
