On the endless ocean, a large warship painted in navy gray was anchored on the sea.
This guided missile cruiser equipped with the Aegis system, anti-submarine helicopters, and towing sonar systems was quietly anchored on the sea.
Who would have thought that this warship, which could make small countries tremble, was empty.
More than 400 crew members were hiding on a lifeboat not far away, trembling as they looked at their original "home".
They were staring at the warship. Dian Jing and Ye Na were staring at them from above.
The Lord-class warship, which had entered optical stealth mode, was hovering at an altitude of 5,000 meters above the warship. Through the optical scope, Dian Jing and Ye Na were looking at the frightened crew members with interest.
The two of them did not expect that the saber-toothed tiger could fire five shots and find the traces of the other four warships in the battle command room.
The original plan was for the saber-toothed tiger to destroy the main warship, lure the other warships to help, and then surround the warship.
Now, the positions of the other hidden warships were all exposed.
The value of the two comprehensive supply ships was not high, but the value of the two Virginia-class attack submarines cruising in the sea was boundless.
The only pity was that there were only two saber-toothed tigers.
From the moment the saber-toothed tiger entered the cruiser, the Lord-class warship continued to launch radio interference on all channels.
Originally, the interference would be lifted when the cruiser completely lost power and entered the countdown to sinking, allowing them to send a distress signal and lure the other warships to come to rescue.
But the saber-toothed tiger had an unexpected gain. It found the route coordinates of the other four warships.
It began to operate in the Battle Command Room without any hesitation.
Not only did the saber-toothed tiger stop the ship, but it also used the light signal equipment on the cruiser to transmit information to the Lord-class warship.
The light signal was not affected by electromagnetic suppression, but the transmission distance during the day was too short.
If the hand speed was fast enough, it could control multiple light signals to flash, and the light signal could also transmit complex bytes like radio.
"What are you going to do with the following group of people?" Tianjin crossed his legs and asked with pride in a triumphant manner. The saber-toothed tiger's victory in its first battle made it, the chief designer, extremely pleased. It couldn't help but feel proud in front of Ye Na.
Ye Na thought for a moment. "I don't know either. We only brought the saber-toothed tigers, and the warship doesn't have any suitable weapons to deal with them."
"Then I'll ask the boss for his opinion." Dian Jing was multitasking. Her left hand tapped on the screen for a while, updating the saber-toothed tiger with new combat commands. His right hand quickly typed on the communicator, asking Ye Qing for instructions on how to deal with the crew members who had abandoned the ship.
…
Inside the underground bunker of the nuclear power plant next to the Sooto Rainforest.
General Maups bared his white teeth, looking like a primitive man who had just come from a primitive tribe to the streets of Manhattan.
When the Lord's Battleship began to implement electromagnetic suppression, a bionic unmanned reconnaissance aircraft had quietly hovered behind the battleship and transmitted the picture to the underground bunker where Ye Qing was located in real time.
Under the high definition optical tracking lens, General Maups could even clearly see the crew members on the lifeboats trembling uneasily.
But General Mopu couldn't figure out why the warship suddenly slowed down when it was sailing at high speed. Then the crew members who were originally insufferably arrogant threw the lifeboat into the sea as if they had seen a ghost, and then jumped into the water and climbed into the lifeboat like a swarm of bees.
Could it be …
What kind of ghost snuck onto the battleship?
General Maups, who had seen all kinds of advanced technology from the Monster Industries, guessed that this was the appearance of a secret weapon. He couldn't guess, and he didn't want to get to the bottom of it.
So General Maups bared his teeth and gloated.
Previously, he was so scared by these people that he didn't even dare to come out of the bunker, and hid in the bunker without any sunlight for almost a month. Now that the big boss was here, these arrogant people were chased into the sea in less than a day. It felt so good!
After receiving the message from Dian Jing, Ye Qing thought for a moment and said to General Maups, "Send some people to control the lifeboats."
"If they don't resist, don't hurt them."
"Lock them in the mining area and let them calm down."
General Maups didn't say anything else and gave the order. If he wanted to kill them, Maups probably wouldn't dare. But if they were caught and forced to mine, then they would also have a taste of darkness, and Maups would be more than happy to do it.
He only had a few high-speed armed patrol boats to maintain the safety of the port. These boats could be used to fight pirates, but against a regular battleship, they wouldn't be enough.
But now, these crew members only had inflatable rafts under their butts. When the time came, when the heavy machine guns were aimed at them, they would have to obediently dance.
"Wait," Ye Qing waved his hand and stopped General Maups. "I will give you two more coordinates, and you will send more than a dozen boats out. It won't be long before two submarines are forced to escape from the coordinates. "
"Lock up the people on the two submarines."
General Maups staggered a step. "Sub … submarines?"
"Aren't all the submarines in the United States nuclear-powered?" General Maups said in surprise, "Boss, could it be … that they can also get nuclear submarines?"
"They have a total of five battleships, a guided missile cruiser as the main strike force, and two submarines patrol the periphery in charge of protection and auxiliary strike missions. There are also two comprehensive supply ships, probably to provide ammunition and supplies. "
General Maups's surprise made Ye Qing very happy. "The two comprehensive supply ships aren't worth much, so we'll let them go this time. But we definitely can't let the submarines go."
Ye Qing snapped his fingers and smiled at General Maups. "In half an hour, I want these two submarines removed from the battle order."
General Maups was very cooperative and was shocked.
…
The two submarines were not far from the guided missile cruiser. They cruised 50 nautical miles ahead. The two submarines had a diving depth of 60 meters and were five nautical miles away from each other.
After receiving the new order, the saber-toothed tiger that was operating in the combat command room suddenly stopped what it was doing. It turned around and drilled into the alloy armor cabin wall that it had broken through.
Captain Carroll and the other crew members were still guarding the vicinity of the battleship. Then, they saw a dazzling figure jump into the sea on the deck of the battleship.
"It left, it left," a crew member shouted excitedly.
Captain Carroll stood up and craned his neck to look around. "Shut up, there's still one on the ship."
He didn't believe that the two metal monsters would leave so easily. Even if one escaped, the remaining one had enough power to destroy the battleship. It was just a matter of time.
"Where is it going …" Captain Carroll thought of a possibility. Would it go after the coordinates of the submarines?
But before he could think for a few seconds, the crew members around him shouted excitedly again.
Following the direction of the crew members' shouts, Captain Carroll easily found a moving trail with a white bubble.
The speed seemed to be faster than a torpedo, and the white bubble was mixed with a bright orange light.
"What is it trying to do? Dodge, everyone dodge." Looking at the white trail heading straight for the lifeboats, Captain Carroll hurriedly shouted at the surrounding lifeboats.
The metal monster was faster than a torpedo. The lifeboats equipped with small outboard engines didn't even have time to turn before they were swept by the white bubble.
Just as Captain Carlo thought that it was going to charge into the lifeboat and start a massacre, the white bubble drew an arc in the air and rushed toward another lifeboat.
Guru guru ~
Bubbles appeared around Captain Carroll's lifeboat, and in less than five seconds, the lifeboat shriveled.
Twenty seconds later, only a layer of skin remained on the surface of the lifeboat. Captain Carroll and the other crew members were soaking in the sea, staring at each other in confusion.
Five minutes later, only ten of the twenty lifeboats were still floating on the surface of the sea. The two hundred people who were forced to fall into the water squeezed onto the lifeboats if they could, and those who couldn't squeeze onto the lifeboats if they couldn't. They watched the white bubble disappear at the end of their vision in a daze.
The direction of the bubble's disappearance coincided with the submarines' route.
"It's over."
Captain Carroll thought in his heart.
He looked at the emergency communicator in his hand. It still showed no signal. He couldn't even send a message.
Seven minutes later, the hundreds of crew members trapped around the lifeboats began to get restless. Some were cursing, some were silent, and some were praying with their eyes closed.
Among them, black smoke began to seep out of the deck and island of the guided missile cruiser.
Everyone understood that there was a big fire inside the cabin, and it had been going on for a while, which caused the entire deck to be smoking.
A big fire quickly emerged from the smoke, and the smoke gathered into a black tornado that soared into the sky.
Captain Carroll murmured to himself, "The fuel depot is on fire …"
The thick smoke was the unique dark color of oil. Thinking of the ship's full load of oil and the ammunition in the armory, Captain Carlo forced himself to stay alert and shouted for the lifeboats to leave.
The small outboard engines on the lifeboats could support a distance of nearly fifty nautical miles. Of course, this distance couldn't reach the coastline. Plus, all the communication equipment had failed, so Captain Carroll didn't dare to rashly disperse the crew. Instead, everyone tied the rope together. Two of the lifeboats started the outboard engines and slowly moved toward the coastline.
In the thick smoke, violent explosions came from the missile launcher of the guided missile cruiser from time to time.
After an unknown amount of time, Captain Carroll and the crew could no longer hear the explosions behind them. When they turned around, they couldn't see the cruiser, only the thick smoke floating in the air.
Their cruiser had sunk.
Many people began to cry slowly. The sea water mixed with tears, and the atmosphere was extremely sad.
The cruiser was gone, and they were still hundreds of nautical miles away from the coast. Even if the weather wasn't cold, they couldn't stand being in the sea for a few hours.
The crew on the lifeboats spontaneously began to drag their colleagues out of the sea and put them on the lifeboats while they soaked in the sea themselves.
They even began to hope that a cargo ship would pass by them. That way, they wouldn't have to soak in the sea. Perhaps they could even use the large radio equipment on the ship to contact the outside world.
Perhaps their prayers were effective. Many of the crew members began to prick up their ears and listen carefully.
There were ships!
In front of their eyes, a row of small dots gradually grew larger.
A few minutes later, they saw the outlines of those dots.
They were armed patrol boats coming at high speed. The displacement of these patrol boats was no more than a hundred tons. Normally, they wouldn't even bother to look at them with their nostrils.
But as the distance between the two got closer and closer, they could see the heavy machine guns in front of the patrol boats and the people on the deck in camouflage uniforms holding weapons and cheering. Captain Carroll and all the crew members gradually began to tremble.
Without the protection of steel and technology, their hearts became as vulnerable as the rubber boats under them.
Those people in camouflage uniforms were either carrying Individual Rocket Launchers or AK assault rifles. They all had dark skin and big white teeth as they laughed wildly at them.
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha! Hahaha!"
