"Pirates? How many of them? What equipment? " Huo Shaoheng's voice was calm and steady, with a unique magnetism. Even the hurricane couldn't shake him.
Zhao Liangze looked at the speedboats approaching from all directions, his expression suddenly serious. He put on his night vision goggles and took a picture of the scene in front of him, then transmitted it back to the base via the Nandou satellite's special coded channel. "16 pirates just boarded the cruise ship and said someone offered 10 million US dollars to kill us, but Nianzhi and I killed them. Now there are even more powerful ones. There are eight speedboats heading over. If I'm not mistaken, the speedboats have … shoulder-fired rocket launchers! "
Huo Shaoheng's brows furrowed as he instantly understood the pirates' intentions.
He walked a few steps along the beach and looked into the distance. The sea was covered in thick clouds, and the wind was howling. The waves were crashing towards the shore.
"Go back! You guys go back now! The hurricane is coming! We have to hide! There can't be people on the beach! "The Cuban coastal guards who could speak English rushed over and waved for Huo Shaoheng and Yin Shixiong to leave.
"You guys be careful. Find a place to hide and hold out for 15 minutes. I'll be there soon." Huo Shaoheng made up his mind and turned to return to the nuclear submarine docked at the military port.
Yin Shixiong looked at the weather worriedly. "Huo Shao, I'm also very worried, but look over there. There's a hurricane! What can we do? "
Huo Shaoheng ignored him and strode into the nuclear submarine's command cabin. He ordered the communications personnel there, "Connect me to the Army's supreme commander, General Ji. Also, give me a channel. I want to connect to the 6th Military Region."
The communications personnel quickly gave him a seat.
Huo Shaoheng sat down and connected to the 6th Military Region's base. He saw the video Zhao Liangze had just sent back to the base.
The waves on the dark sea were turbulent, and the eight white speedboats were particularly eye-catching. They cut through the waves, and someone on the speedboats was carrying a shoulder-fired rocket launcher aimed at the camera!
"F * ck!" Huo Shaoheng punched the control panel. His jaw tightened as he snatched the communications personnel's headset. He spoke to General Ji, the Army's supreme commander, "General Ji, I request permission from the Army to borrow the Cuban military's latest MiG-35 fighter jet."
"… You even know about Cuba's best fighter jet!" General Ji was exasperated and amused at the same time. "But don't try to play the 'when a general is out in the field, he doesn't obey the emperor's orders!' You better give me a reasonable reason! "
Although Huo Shaoheng was anxious, he didn't lose his composure. He said word by word, "Our people are trapped in the high seas of the Caribbean. I want to save them. There's a hurricane in Cuba, so ships can't pass through. I need the best fighter jets to pass through the center of the hurricane. "
"Are you crazy?!" General Ji was furious. Looking at the news from his secretary and the weather report of the Caribbean Sea, he reprimanded Huo Shaoheng with his hands on his hips. "There's a hurricane and you still want to fly?! Do you know that the record for a fighter jet flying through a hurricane was set by the United States Air Force's Hurricane Hunters? That time, the hurricane's highest wind speed was only level 3! But the hurricane at the Caribbean Sea was already a Category 4 hurricane! It might even reach Level 5! Do you want to die?! "
The highest level of hurricane was level 5.
"General Ji, to me, American records are meant to be broken, not looked up to," Huo Shaoheng said lightly. His fingers tapped lightly on the console. "If General Ji agrees, this time, not only can we obtain precious flight data from passing through the eye of the hurricane, but we can also test the feasibility of the pilot flying with zero visibility and relying entirely on the Nandou Satellite Navigation System."
General Ji didn't particularly care about saving people. Although Gu Nianzhi's background was unknown, she wasn't that important to him.
Compared to Huo Shaoheng, who he had high hopes for as his successor, Gu Nianzhi and Zhao Liangze's lives weren't on the same level. Therefore, General Ji was absolutely unwilling to let Huo Shaoheng risk his life to fly through the eye of the hurricane just to save these two people.
However, Huo Shaoheng said that he could use this opportunity to test the navigation mode of the Nandou Satellite Navigation System and provide data on the fighter jet flying through the hurricane in all directions without visibility. General Ji found that he couldn't refuse.
"General Ji, time is running out. Please make a decision immediately." Huo Shaoheng watched as time passed. The pirates on the Caribbean Sea side were actually equipped with shoulder-mounted rocket launchers. If he delayed on his side …
Huo Shaoheng suddenly didn't dare to think about the possible consequences.
"Ok." General Ji finally made up his mind. Huo Shaoheng hung up without another word and went straight to the supreme commander of the Cuban Revolutionary Army to borrow the plane. He didn't even hear the last part of General Ji's sentence. "… You're too bold. After this is over, you'll be grounded for two months!"
With the support of the supreme commander of the Huaxia Imperial Army and the mediation of the ambassador from the Imperial Embassy in Cuba, the borrowing of the fighter jet went smoothly.
Ten minutes later, Huo Shaoheng and Yin Shixiong boarded the MiG-35, the best fighter jet Cuba had just imported from Russia.
The soldiers of the Cuban Air Force stood at the airport and saluted Huo Shaoheng and Yin Shixiong with their eyes. It was as if they were looking at heroes who had come to their deaths. They watched in awe as Huo Shaoheng and Yin Shixiong took off in their fighter jets and flew towards the low clouds not far away.
No one expected them to make a smooth return flight.
Even the best American fighter jets and the best American pilots couldn't challenge the center of a Category 4 hurricane, let alone the Huaxia Imperial pilots who had never achieved anything.
Although they would lose the MiG fighter jet, the Huaxia Empire would compensate them. They wouldn't lose anything.
Above Cuba's waters, Huo Shaoheng gripped the control stick tightly as he continued to increase the altitude of the fighter jet.
The strong wind mixed with the large raindrops smashed into the fighter jet.
His vision was getting blurry. The fighter jet flew into the hurricane clouds, and it was like diving into a thick pile of paste. Black clouds surrounded him from all sides, and his visibility was zero. The compass on the fighter jet spun, and the body of the plane tilted and rolled in the wind. Yin Shixiong felt like he was going to throw up his dinner.
Huo Shaoheng connected to the Nandou satellite navigation system and connected all the data to the Huaxia Empire's Nandou Satellite Command Center.
At this point, he was completely relying on the Nandou satellite navigation system to fly the fighter jet. His eyes were useless.
…
Gu Nianzhi watched as Zhao Liangze hung up and asked nervously, "Will they come to save us?"
Because Wen Shouyi was by their side, Gu Nianzhi and Zhao Liangze didn't mention Huo Shaoheng's name. Gu Nianzhi didn't even say "Uncle Huo." It was fine as long as they knew who the other was talking about.
"Yes, but let's hold on for 15 minutes." Zhao Liangze looked anxiously at the rising waves and the approaching speedboats. "Hide, they have shoulder-fired rocket launchers!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud whooshing sound from the sea. A rocket cut through the rain and hit the engine room on the lowest level of the cruise ship!
Seawater gushed in, and the cruise ship began to tilt and sink.
Gu Nianzhi grabbed Zhao Liangze's arm, her voice hoarse. "Oh no! They're going to sink the ship! "
It turned out that the pirates didn't want to climb onto the cruise ship and fight them face-to-face.
They chose to sink the cruise ship!
"Let's go!" Zhao Liangze carried the unconscious Wen Shouyi on his back and left the open-air amusement park on the fourth floor to run to the third floor.
More rockets hit the Princess cruise ship, and more and more seawater poured in.
The second floor was quickly submerged, and seawater slowly rose to the third floor.
