Chapter 149 The Washington
Chapter 149 Washington
When the warship entered the Philippine Sea, there was less than two-thirds of the distance left from Guam. At this time, the radar of the missile destroyer suddenly discovered that a huge target was slowly approaching. The radar soldiers said nervously based on the feedback from the radar wave: "The unknown target should be a super large ship with a displacement of at least 80,000 tons!"
"Eighty thousand tons? You're cheating..." The captain was stunned and said, "Eighty thousand tons, except for large tankers, only aircraft carriers have this level among military ships!"
Xie Tian frowned and asked, "Does Japan have such a large displacement warship?"
"No." Zhang Long said without hesitation, "Japan only has a helicopter carrier with a displacement of less than 30,000 tons. It is impossible for Japan to build a ship of 80,000 tons and can escape surveillance from other countries."
"That means, the unknown object in front is a cruise ship?" Xie Tian felt a little relieved. Since the Japanese army did not have such a high displacement ship, even if they got an oil tanker, it would be of no practical use. A counter-ship missile could kill it.
"What is the speed of the other party?" Zhang Long asked with the communicator.
"Speed speed, five knots." The radar operator in the radar room sent back the message.
"Five joints..." Zhang Long curled his lips and said, "This speed is less than ten kilometers."
Xie Tian said, "Let the 093 nuclear submarine responsible for the police underwater accelerate and look at it."
Zhang Long nodded and said, "Okay, as long as it is not a warship, it does not have anti-submarine capabilities. If there is an abnormality, let the submarine launch a torpedo and kill it."
When the 093 nuclear attack submarine received the message, it immediately advanced at full speed and headed to the suspicious target displayed by the radar. The water fleet slowed down its speed. After about an hour, 093 heard a message that made everyone stand silent: "Report, through the periscope, the target can be the USS Washington aircraft carrier."
"Really or not?" Zhang Long was stunned for a while and asked hurriedly: "What's the situation with the aircraft carrier? Has the US already begun to have the ability to take care of Guam?"
"The aircraft carrier is..." the submarine stammered for a while and said, "The aircraft carrier seems to be drifting with the ocean currents... We used sonar to detect that there was no noise on the aircraft carrier, which means that the engine was in a closed state."
"I'm sorry..." Xie Tian said in surprise: "Can this be the aircraft carrier lost by the Americans? Didn't it be that Eric said that their aircraft carrier was abandoned on the ocean?"
Zhang Long also looked at Xie Tian with extreme excitement and asked tentatively: "Then... let's take a look?"
"Look!" Xie Tian nodded immediately, and the fleet began to move at full speed towards the aircraft carrier that had been fired in the ocean. At a distance that could be observed by the naked eye, everyone saw a large and aggressive aircraft carrier floating on the sea at this moment with the waves, and there was no sign of human being on the aircraft carrier. The carrier-based aircraft had folded wings neatly placed on the deck.
Zhang Long smiled and said, "It must be an aircraft carrier abandoned by the Americans. If the aircraft carrier is normal, it is impossible to sail alone. There must be at least a dozen various ships guarding around him."
"No one wants something..." Xie Tian smacked his lips and said, "Why are you reluctant to collect it for the Americans."
"Then what you mean is that this aircraft carrier is ours now?" Zhang Long blurted out.
"Yeah." Xie Tian nodded and asked again: "Can you drive away?"
"I don't know much," Zhang Long shrugged and said, "I don't understand these things. Our aircraft carrier has just been launched and has not been completed yet. He has basically no experience in controlling the aircraft carrier. I don't know how the nuclear reactor is started."
"Ask," Xie Tian hurriedly said: "I think no matter how complicated the ship is, it will only take a few minutes to drive. Don't we have nuclear submarine soldiers? The reactors of nuclear submarines can be started. Can't we start the American nuclear reactors?"
"Actually..." Zhang Long calmed down for a moment and said, "This aircraft carrier is not very useful to us. Not to mention the large size, we will not understand the various electronic devices inside for a while. To be honest, the radar may not be able to use it."
"Get it off first." Xie Tian said without hesitation: "You can't let it drift so much on the sea, right? What if it falls into the hands of other countries?"
Zhang Long hesitated for a moment and said, "How about this, let's clear the zombies on the aircraft carrier first, and then leave some of the personnel to try to see if the aircraft carrier can be started. Our team of people will not delay here too much, go to Guam first."
"Okay." Xie Tian nodded and said, "Snatch it first, let's talk about other things slowly. It's best to drive away if you can. If you don't drive away, blow it up. I've killed an American aircraft carrier in my life, and I'll have the capital to brag with others in the future."
"Come." Zhang Long immediately said: "I'll make arrangements now."
There are some naval professionals in the fleet today, but the aircraft carrier is indeed too high-end, and China has never had real experience in aircraft carriers. No one can guarantee that this American aircraft carrier can be driven home for a while. Zhang Long selected some professionals with experience in large ships and nuclear submarines to prepare for boarding the ship, and then mobilized 2,000 soldiers to prepare to board the USS Washington aircraft carrier and kill the zombies inside.
When an aircraft carrier is fully loaded, there are at least thousands of personnel. In other words, if this aircraft carrier is paralyzed on the sea due to zombie virus while sailing, then the number of zombies on it must be extremely large. However, the unit brought by Xie Tian carried the most advanced individual weapon when he came, and the e2 was difficult to resist in front of them, and Xie Tian was relatively relieved of them.
"First send a helicopter to hover over the deck of the aircraft carrier to provide cover for the soldiers boarding the ship behind."
Xie Tian issued the first order, and then four armed helicopters took off slowly, all hovering above the deck. At this moment, the huge movement of the helicopters had attracted a large number of zombies to surge out of the inside of the aircraft carrier, but with armed helicopters, it was basically difficult for zombies to get close to.
However, the four armed helicopters killed many of the zombies and the carrier-based aircraft were also damaged, but fortunately no explosion occurred.
Four armed helicopters seized the defense advantage on the deck. Xie Tian immediately ordered the ship to approach the aircraft carrier, and then a large number of soldiers began to climb to the deck of the aircraft carrier through ropes. Xie Tian asked them to complete the assembly at the end of the deck, which was below the helicopter, and then advance inward. Only after the strength was concentrated can they exert their maximum attack power.
Two thousand soldiers completed the assembly on the deck, but all of them stood on the deck and did not dare to make any moves. The helicopter overhead sprayed the great wind down, which had a great impact on the soldiers' balance. Seeing that the soldiers were ready, Xie Tian immediately ordered the helicopter to climb to a sufficient height. Then, with a command, the soldiers began to move forward against the zombies that were constantly rushing out.
There is such an advantage to dealing with zombies. Once you shoot, you don’t have to look for zombies. The zombies will come to you on their own initiative. Two thousand soldiers defend one line on the deck, and the zombies will be eliminated as much as they come out. During this period, an armed helicopter also specially transported them ammunition.
The unilateral massacre lasted for more than half an hour. Xie Tiancai ordered the entry into the aircraft carrier for further clearance, but the interior of the aircraft carrier was too big. More than two thousand soldiers searched for two hours before finally confirming that there were no zombies in the aircraft carrier at this moment.
Xie Tian couldn't help but feel excited and took a helicopter to board the American aircraft carrier. As soon as he stood on the deck, Xie Tian felt his insignificance. The area of this aircraft carrier was too large, and it was not an exaggeration to describe it as a terrifying one. The appearance of the Hornet carrier-based aircraft also looked quite cool. After all, it was something he didn't have. Xie Tian felt that he was very awesome when he saw it.
The soldiers began to clear the zombies on the deck, throwing the corpses into the sea and pushing the damaged carrier-based aircraft into the sea. The professionals arranged by Zhang Long also boarded the aircraft carrier, but the appearance of these people made Xie Tian feel very disliked. They seemed to have entered the city to see the old farmers who were Mercedes-Benz. The excitement and caution made Xie Tian begin to doubt whether they really had the ability to start the aircraft carrier.
However, Xie Tian couldn't bear to let such a big guy wander on the sea like this. Logically speaking, the United States has a lot of naval power in Guam, in the Taiwan Strait, in Japan and South Korea. Are most of the ships drifting on the sea like this aircraft carrier? There are also the Aegis-class destroyers and frigates in the Washington aircraft carrier group. I don't know where they are going.
After a inventory, in addition to the six broken bumblers, there were 53 bumblers carrier-based aircraft on the deck, as well as early warning aircraft and anti-submarine aircraft in the deck. However, none of the pilots brought by Xie Tian were sure to drive the bumblers because no one could operate the aircraft carrier and did not know how to restore power to the aircraft carrier, nor how to use the catapult on the aircraft carrier deck to boost the carrier-based aircraft takeoff.
Xie Tian probably looked at the largest Nimitz-class aircraft carrier in the United States. Although there are indeed many weapons and equipment, it is not useful for the time being. At this moment, his fleet has only sailed one-third of the journey and has a further distance to go. Xie Tian left nearly a hundred professionals selected by Zhang Long, and left a frigate with them, instructing him: "If you can't handle this aircraft carrier within three days, you can blow up the aircraft carrier and then take the frigate to Guam."
The people who were left behind hurriedly nodded and agreed that it would be an extremely difficult task for them to become familiar with the most powerful weapons and equipment of the US Navy in three days.
