Chapter 675: Raid on the High Seas

(The keywords have been modified for some well-known reasons to avoid risks, please understand.)

The Hailong-class submarine has a submerged limit speed of only 20 knots.

In ordinary civilian ships, this speed is not bad, after all, some large cruise ships are only about 18 knots.

In submarines, this speed is not bad. After all, submarines are mainly about stealth and silence. Faster speed also means louder noise.

Among warships, this speed is barely acceptable. Apart from the main battleship, most of the auxiliary ships are also at this speed.

However, in front of the Silence... the Sea Dragon is like an old tortoise with a limping leg, no different from standing still.

When the Silence soars to 190 knots, it's enough to get everyone's adrenaline pumping.

An American bearded reporter set up the camera at the stern of the boat, shooting wildly at the two huge hydrofoils that looked like angel wings, as if he wanted to capture every frame.

It seemed that this was the occasion when Moses parted the sea.

A colleague next to him reminded him: "Be careful that the battery is dead. I'm afraid there will be a big battle later. I don't know how long it will take!"

Although the current scene is magnificent, the battle in the future is more important. If you miss every frame, you may miss the Pulitzer Prize. This colleague can be regarded as a real person, because theoretically speaking, the people here are all competitors.

This colleague was driving his own tablet and was watching special programs of several late-night shows. The military experts who were picked up and invited to the studio in the middle of the night spit on the screen as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

But their conclusions also gave the journalists who remained on board a dose of reassurance.

The conclusions of several experts are the same. After all, the Silence is a civilian ship. If it really goes to war with the Sea Dragon, it will definitely die as soon as it comes into contact with it.

But actually launching an attack on a civilian ship, even on the high seas, is an unforgivable mistake. No matter it is any military expert, they think that the Hailong class will not fire.

Anyway, the Silence can't do anything to the Sea Dragon. Everyone looks at each other hundreds of meters deep in the water for a moment. The Sea Dragon can swim below the surface for several weeks, but the Silence will never really track for a few weeks. , and then everyone lost interest and began to wrestle politically and economically...

Blah blah blah, everyone will feel that this is a protracted battle.

This result is not what many reporters want. If there is no stimulating conflict, can they still win the Pulitzer? The competition for the Pulitzer every year is also great.

But if they do sink the Silence, will they survive?

They are just some current affairs reporters and technology reporters, not war reporters, and they are not fully prepared to hang up.

Staying is a choice, but after making this choice, they are suffering and testing almost every minute and every second.

I don't know how many people prayed to their gods beside the boat: "Fight, but don't get injured, yes, it's best if you miss the shot..."

Many people saw other people praying, and silently joined the ranks of praying. They felt that if so many people prayed together, it would always have some effect. Maybe some mysterious and great power would come to help where are they?

But in fact, prayer is useless. If prayer is really useful, the earth will probably be destroyed once a year during the college entrance examination in June...

No fight, or just a conflict, no fatal blow, this is the consensus of everyone.

When Qingzhong Yang and the others discussed quietly behind, they also had the same attitude.

But Nan Ming didn't think so. Miss Abi took killing Nan Ming as her own responsibility. Although under the influence of Nan Ming's authority, ordinary attacks were ineffective against Nan Ming, but if there was a chance, she would definitely try.

Therefore, when it was only 50 nautical miles away from the Hailong class, Nanming reminded Shi Buqing: "Cheer up!"

Needless to say, Nan Ming, Shi Buqing was already concentrating and asked everyone to be more vigilant.

On the high seas, there is no support, no backup, not even a rescue ship. This is a lonely battle, and he can't help but be serious.

As an excellent commander, Shi Buqing actually knows the Hailong class very well.

The missile it carries is an improved version of the Harpoon missile. It is not an advanced missile. The missile mounted on the submarine has a range of within 200 kilometers, but to be on the safe side, the usual launch range is 100 kilometers and the speed is about Mach 0.8. , this kind of anti-ship missile flies by skimming the sea, that is, after launching, it quickly lowers to a position close to the sea surface and flies rapidly until it finds the target, then it suddenly rises like a rattlesnake, and then targets the bridge , rushed directly into the bridge and exploded.

After all, a modern ship is a huge sea fortress. An ordinary Harpoon missile can hardly sink a warship unless it causes a chain explosion. All it needs to do is destroy the command and control center of the ship. .

Therefore, the bridges of many new ships are protected like tortoise shells.

But the Silence is not an example. The Silence was not originally used as a battleship. The refurbished bridge looks like a luxurious viewing room, with super-large glass on all sides that are crystal clear and have a superb view.

Anyway, it's enough for viewing, but it doesn't seem to be enough for protection.

Nan Ming turned around, wanting to let Qingzhong Yang and the others hide in a safe place temporarily, but was rejected.

At this moment, many satellites have begun to turn their orbits, pointing in this direction, and the reconnaissance planes of some countries have also taken off, and some media are beating their chests and regretting that they did not go to watch the resumption ceremony of the Silence. Ships and helicopters, want to shoot from the air.

A very smart photographer triumphantly took out the drone he had prepared long ago, intending to take aerial photography, but when his drone just flew out of the range covered by the fairing, there was a hiccup , disappeared with a cry.

"Damn it!" the photographer put his head in his hands and shouted, "My thousand dollars!"

A group of people next to him looked at him with the same expression as SB, man, now our speed is 190 knots, OK? That is 350 kilometers per hour! Helicopters may not even be able to catch up!

In fact, at this moment, even Lazy Technology's new drone "Goose" can't keep up with the speed of the Silence. After all, the Goose is only a civilian drone, so long before the Silence flew , has recovered almost all drones.

Except Xiaobai.

Xiaobai, flying over the Silence, did not have a radar, but had a wide-angle camera and a motion detection system. When a white shadow suddenly came into view, it immediately issued an early warning.

"Here we come!" Nan Ming said in a deep voice.

At this time, the radar also suddenly issued an early warning. The Harpoon missile that was close to the sea to avoid the radar, like a poisonous snake spitting out a message, instantly raised its head and flew to an altitude of hundreds of meters. Dive down, straight into the bridge!

"Aww!" There was a burst of exclamation, which came from outside the porthole. The reporters on the deck were all observing the sky at 360 degrees. At this time, a reporter saw a flash of light in the telephoto lens.

Like a sharp sword. (To be continued.)
