Chapter 687: Fully Prepared for Battle

"Have you not gotten in touch yet?" Zhang Hao stood in the telegraph communication center, waiting anxiously.

"Not yet." The person in charge of the telegram center looked serious.

Just two hours ago, the telegraph center lost contact with the scientific research fleet headed for Sanxian Island, and lost contact without warning.

With the maturity of telegraph technology, according to the regulations of Dayang Group, the fleet going out must report the situation every two hours. This can not only strengthen the control of the fleet, but also be able to respond at any time - once something happens, Dayang Group can control it at any time.

Also, the normal situation is to report every two hours; but if you encounter a situation, you must report at any time. For example, everything before was fully reported by telegram, including the return of the fleet, and it was a safe return.

Especially now, the situation is complicated, the strategic alliance and the anti-aggression alliance are still fighting, and the East is restless, so that the Dayang Group has to be careful and careful.

At this time, four hours have passed since the last time the scientific research fleet sent a letter. This has exceeded twice the stipulated time, but there is still no signal at all.

Without any warning, all the signals were lost.

There are hundreds of researchers from Dayang Group on this battleship! Compared with the masters and steel battleships of the Transformation Stage, Zhang Hao felt more sorry for these scientific researchers. This is the treasure of Dayang Group.

The telegram kept calling, but there was still no reply. I tried changing the airwaves channels, but there was no response. Zhang Hao's expression was serious.

A small staff meeting began, and everyone made their own analysis. Half an hour later, a staff member's answer was placed in front of Zhang Hao.

"Mr. Zhang, we think there are several possibilities for the sudden loss of signal.

First, when encountering an ambush, some large barrier completely enveloped the fleet. But our fleets are sailing at sea with a distance of at least 300 meters, usually 500 or even 800 meters.

There are 7 warships in the scientific research fleet. Even if the arrow formation is used, the area at sea will be at least 3×2.5 kilometers, which is difficult to cover with ordinary small formations. The super-large formation is easy to expose, and it is almost difficult to cover the fleet in an instant.

Therefore, the possibility of encountering an ambush is unlikely. Unless the rest of the fleet joins forces and fights together. But we also intercepted the telegram signals of the rest of the fleet, and after analysis, we found nothing.

The second possibility is that someone else has developed means such as electromagnetic interference. But we also consulted telegraph technicians, and they said that if you want to interfere with electromagnetic signals, you must either have professional knowledge, and this kind of professional knowledge is only mastered by Dayang Group; or an ultra-high-intensity magnetic field erupts; Put an end to the signal.

The second possibility is basically ruled out.

The third possibility is that the fleet itself cut off the signal and carried out extreme tactical radio silence.

Radio silence is a strategy we've discussed before, but not implemented. However, many senior executives of Dayang Group know this strategy.

When encountering emergencies, or important situations, or necessary measures, etc., it is necessary to adopt radio silence to maintain stealth.

After discussion, we believe that the third possibility is the greatest. Otherwise, with Dayang Group's warships and so many masters in command, it would be almost impossible for someone to cut off all electromagnetic signals instantly. "

"Cut off the signal actively?" Zhang Hao looked at the analysis report, closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then slowly said: "No matter what, we must deal with it. If the fleet does encounter trouble, wait for our rescue.

Temporarily follow the third consideration, but also pay close attention to the radio signals of the fleets of the other parties.

In addition, please contact our merchant ship near Sanxian Island and keep it confidential. Take a secret channel and password. "

"yes."

The merchant ships of Dayang Group also have military missions. Many of those telegraph personnel, captains, etc. have a double identity, but the second identity is rarely used. Unless you receive a radio with a special code.

After all the tasks were arranged, Zhang Hao could only wait quietly.

Soon the secretary will report that Li Yuanyuan is here.

Why is she here? Zhang Hao was a little surprised. Ever since she decided to get married, Li Yuanyuan stayed out of the gate and waited while practicing; unless Zhang Hao took the initiative to go. This was the first time Li Yuanyuan came to look for her on her own initiative.

Seeing Li Yuanyuan, she looked worried. "Hao, I...I have thought about it for a long time, but I am still a little uneasy. We have fallen out with the Twelve Eastern Families, and my father is still in the Eastern..."

Zhang Hao smiled gently, took Li Yuanyuan's cold little hand, put a little force on her, and put Li Yuanyuan in his arms, "Don't worry, Uncle is safe in the East. First of all, the big family is a big family after all, and you will still pay attention to some things. Even if there are some shady means, we are not afraid. Uncle has five hundred transformation gods around him, and more than a dozen masters of supernatural powers.

Secondly, the Liang Dynasty in the east has gradually begun to cooperate with us. Once something happens to Uncle as a representative, the Liang Dynasty will lose face. In fact, my uncle was fully protected by the Liang Dynasty in the east. "

Li Yuanyuan thought for a while, then nodded slowly, and finally a smile appeared on her face. In an instant, Zhang Hao was obsessed, that kind of worried and relieved smile, that kind of expression from the heart, made Zhang Hao slowly lower his head...

Li Yuanyuan trembled and closed her eyes...

"Dong dong..." There was a knock on the door.

"Ah..." Li Yuanyuan jumped out of Zhang Hao's embrace suddenly, and sat beside her with a whoosh. Zhang Hao's face turned black, and he said coldly, "Come in."

The secretary came in, took a telegram, and put it on Zhang Hao's desk, "Mr. Zhang, the telegram just came from Dongfang Liangchao."

Zhang Hao picked up the telegram and looked at it. The telegram was sent by Li Yuanyuan's father, Li Yousheng, but it conveyed the meaning of Liang Chao.

Zhang Hao read it carefully and smiled.

Liang Chao's meaning is very clear, they want to form an alliance with Dayang Group! But I am not sure about Dayang Group's attitude, so I made a contact and test.

The words are rather cryptic, saying something about keeping watch, building prosperity together, and establishing friendly business exchanges, etc.; it also said that if Dayang Group is willing, Liang Chao will send a mission of the highest standard to visit Dayang Group and formally establish in Dayang Group. The embassy also invited Dayang Group to establish a formal embassy in Liang Dynasty.

Although Dayang Group had exchanges with Liang Chao in the East before, it was more about business. But this time, Liang Chao expressed his will at the political level.

Of course, Zhang Hao would not reject such a friendship application, but he did not respond blindly and immediately, but held a board meeting to brainstorm.

Bai Ye, who was engaged in intelligence, was the first to speak, "I think, although this is a timely help, it may be a robbery. I am afraid that Liang Chao will make some excessive demands; not limited to high-end technology, supernatural powers, etc., and even steel warships, etc. Support for bulk items."

Xie Hongsheng of Xinglintang also said: "One more thing, is it possible that the other party is a puppet controlled by the Twelve Family? Want to take this opportunity to cheat us of something?"

Xie Hongsheng's words attracted a lot of attention. This possibility... is not impossible, but very possible!

Up to now, Liang Chao has been talking to himself that he wants to get rid of the control of the Twelve Family, but it may not be a trap of the Twelve Family.

Everyone discussed intensely for a long time, and Zhang Hao finally made a decision: Since the matter cannot be decided, it is necessary to send missions to each other. The Dayang Group will send an invitation to Liang Chao, and at the same time, the Dayang Group will also send an official mission to visit Liang Chao.

So far, the Dayang Group has not sent an official mission yet.

The discussion about Liang Dynasty is over, but Dayang Group has more things to discuss. The transformation of the Dayang Group, the complete integration of various families and others within the Dayang Group, will continue.

The Xinglintang Group is a little troublesome. The Dayang Group and the Xinglintang Group hold mutual holdings, but they are two groups after all, and they are completely two businesses. After discussing for a while, there is no better opinion for the time being, so we put it aside for the time being.

Then everyone began to discuss the war and the current situation, and successively finalized many strategies and development directions.

The construction of the land bridge will be suspended due to the huge cost.

Aircraft production, etc., most of the voices opposed by the public; but Zhang Hao also persuaded the public to release the budget alone. For the time being, aircraft technology is indeed unable to meet the requirements of the world of practice. Whether it is people's livelihood or war, aircraft technology must be better. Zhang Hao has decided that the next step is jet technology.

The world of practice puts forward higher requirements for science and technology.

Then Zhang Hao proposed to develop new warships and new artillery. According to the data collected in the recent war, the Dayang Group's technology is brewing new changes.

After more than nine years, nearly ten years of crazy technology accumulation, Dayang Group's technical background is already huge enough. It's time to explode!

In terms of new technology, Zhang Hao proposed:

New battleships - battleships with unified large-caliber artillery and larger displacement, preparing for ultra-long-range warfare;

Submarines—now the mermaids have completely stabilized, and they have trained a thousand fighters. If they want to give full play to the role of the mermaids, they will build submarines and underwater collection teams to be responsible for wars under the sea surface and various marine operations. Extraction of resources, especially deep sea resources;

Torpedo technology - torpedoes will play an important role in the attack methods of warships and submarines in the future; especially when torpedoes explode under the sea, their power is extraordinary;

New artillery and rocket launchers - Thanks to the maturity and research and development of torpedo launch technology, Dayang Group has mastered the propulsion rocket technology;

Magic weapon armor technology-this brand new magic weapon armor has shown strong combat effectiveness in the sneak attack of the twelve families, especially in the environment inside the big formation that seals the sky and locks the earth; Zhang Hao It also proposed the "maximization" of the magic weapon armor technology, such as the height of 20 meters, directly turning the armor into a mech.

In addition, comprehensive arrangements have been made including magic weapon technology, radio technology, formations, tanks, etc., as well as spies and intelligence.

From this moment on, Dayang Group is fully ready for war.
