“Chief, you take the plane back to base first, we’ll take care of this side!” The naval officer said.
“What words!”
Xiang Jiefang’s face sank as he said, “Our fishermen are being bullied, and I, the chief, am instead going to retreat back? If the people find out about this, they will poke us in the back!”
The naval officer hurriedly said, “Chief ……”
“There’s no need to say anything!”
Xiang Jiefang interrupted him and said aloud, “Now I order that the warships move forward at full speed to rescue our fishermen!”
“This ……”
“This what this, are you going to disobey orders?!” Xiang Jiefang bellowed.
“Yes! Full speed ahead!” The naval officer, once he saw that Xiang Jiefang was angry, immediately saluted and shouted in response.
“Go ahead, don’t mind me, I’m a soldier too!”
Seeing that naval officer trotting all the way away while his mouth shouted full speed ahead, guns loaded, and entering the first level of combat readiness, Ji Feng couldn’t help but ask, “Chief Xiang, can I know what’s going on?”
Xiang Jiefang said in a deep voice: “Just now our warship received a distress signal from our fishermen, saying that they were being surrounded by Vietnamese warships, the other side used water cannons, and some fishermen were already injured!”
Ji Feng’s face immediately sank: “Vietcong brats? In these waters?”
The fishermen’s distress signal would not have been sent here. According to the usual practice, if this kind of offshore fishing vessel is in danger, it will directly ask for help from the fishing administration or send it to the coast guard, but this is a naval ship under our feet, it looks like the fishermen should be in a great hurry. distress signal …… Vietcong brats, bullying people too much!”
Only then did Ji Feng understand, he asked, “Chief Commander Xiang, what do you plan to do?”
“As Chief, I can’t stand by and watch our fishermen in danger and not do anything.” Xiang Jiefang said in a deep voice.
“That’s great.”
Ji Feng couldn’t help but grin when he heard this, “I can still fire a few shots from my laser cannon, it’s no fun just shooting at target boats, it’s more fun to play with real guns!”
But Xiang Jiefang glared at him, “You’re really belligerent! However, this time you can’t rush into action, we’ll see what happens and try to drive away if we can.”
Although Xiang Jiefang was equally angry about this situation, he was not a big-headed soldier with a pa*sion for war, but the chief, so he had to look at the situation from the overall perspective. It was easy to fire a few shots, but how to take care of the aftermath was a troublesome matter, so one had to be cautious.
Ji Feng couldn’t help but be a little disappointed, it seems that the tone towards liberation is also the same as that of the Central Committee, neither wants to make a big move!
But the problem is, people are already doing it, and they have to hold back?
“Chief Xiang, or else you can lend me a boat and I’ll go and meet them!” Ji Feng said, “In that case, anything that happens has nothing to do with the country, I’ll bear the burden alone!”
“Are you squeezing me?” Xiang Jiefang gave a glare.
Ji Feng said, “Anyway, I can’t stand watching people bullying our own people.”
Xiang Jiefang grunted, but did not say anything more, not saying that he agreed or disagreed.
The warship began to move forward at full speed, chopping the waves and cutting a white line across the sea, while the naval officer invited Xiang Jiefang to the cabin to take command.
Arriving at the cabin, Xiang Jiefang said, “I am only here today to be a spectator, an amateur does not command an insider, if we really want to fight, we still need to rely on you all.”
The naval officer immediately said loudly, “Please don’t worry, Chief Xiang, it is our duty to protect our country, we will definitely defend our fishermen to the death!”
Xiang Jiefang said, “It’s useless to just shout slogans, let’s wait until we get to the place.”
The sailing speed of the warship was really a bit maddening, perhaps it also had something to do with the sea being too big, anyway, when Ji Feng looked out from the cabin, he could only see a vast sea, and no fishing boats could be seen at all.
Ji Feng asked, “Chief Xiang, how much longer will it take to arrive?”
Xiang Jiefang said, “It’s already full speed ahead now.”
The naval officer said, “Based on the current sailing speed, we should be able to arrive within forty minutes.”
“Forty minutes ……”
Ji Feng frowned slightly, “It takes that long? Then won’t it be all over when we arrive? Chief Xiang, can we just send planes over, don’t we have an air force on the Southern Fleet side?”
Xiang Jiefang said, “Do you still need to say that?”
Ji Feng was stunned, Xiang Jiefang had already sent planes over? How come he didn’t know? Just now, Xiang Jiefang had been with him, he hadn’t done anything.
At this time, the naval officer explained, “Our fleet is all interconnected, this side received a distress signal and immediately sent it to the fleet, and now the air force fighter planes should already be on their way.”
Ji Feng asked, “Then how long will it take for the air force to get there?”
The naval officer said, “It will also take a certain amount of time.”
“How long exactly?” Ji Feng asked.
“Sorry, this is confidential and cannot be disclosed!” The naval officer said.
“This is also confidential?”
Ji Feng was stunned, but then he reacted, the location of the warships’ moorings was indeed a military secret, and if he knew the flight time, he would almost be able to estimate the approximate location of the fleet, and in case he encountered a sneak attack, he would lose a lot of money.
Ji Feng was not wearing a military uniform, so that naval officer a*sumed that he was not a soldier, so naturally he could not tell him this.
“Then can you transfer the satellite surveillance?” Ji Feng asked again, “If we rush there so blindly, we don’t even know what the scene is like, in case the Vietcong brats set up an ambush, won’t it be troublesome then?”
The naval officer didn’t say anything, but Xiang Jiefang said, “The satellite is already monitoring, just wait patiently, the military has a complete set of operational mechanism, you’d better not make suggestions with a hammer head from the east.”
Ji Feng was speechless. So he was still talking too much?
After sailing for more than half an hour, a soldier suddenly said, “Report, target found!”
The one who spoke was a soldier in charge of the radar, and he spotted the target on the radar. Ji Feng and Xiang Jiefang immediately looked, and saw that several red dots appeared on the radar screen and were flickering.
“Binoculars!” Xiang Jiefang said.
“Yes!”
The naval officer immediately handed over the binoculars, and after looking into the distance for a while, Xiang Jiefang handed them to Ji Feng, “Take a look at them too, all of you, get ready for battle, signal to the other side, tell them that this is our Chinese territorial waters, tell them to immediately stop their provocative act of besieging our Chinese fishing boats, otherwise, it will be considered as an invasion and we will launch an attack! ”
The signal was immediately sent out.
At this time, Ji Feng also saw the ships vaguely appearing in front of him, he took his binoculars and looked carefully, gradually getting used to seeing things on the sea, and as a result, he found that there were two warships in front of him, with a fishing boat in the middle, and the chimney on it was emitting black smoke outwards.
“Chief, the other side is a fishing boat and a small warship that are attacking our fishing boat.” One of the soldiers in charge of the observation said, using the binoculars on the ship, he could see much more clearly than with his hand held binoculars.
“Come closer!”
Xiang Jiefang ordered as he could not see too clearly.
The naval officer said in a hurry; “Chief, if we get any closer we’ll be in range of the other side!”
Xiang Jiefang said, “If we don’t even dare to enter the other side’s range, how can we rescue our fishermen?”
“But you ……”
“You don’t need to care about me, do what you need to do!” With a wave of his hand, Xiang Jiefang interrupted him.
“Yes!”
With that, the warships approached again, and this time, Ji Feng saw the situation in front of him and his face steeped in gloom.
The two warships, surprisingly, were attacking the fishing boat, and in the binoculars he could clearly see that a white column of water was launched from one of the ships, which shook the fishing boat repeatedly, and the people on the fishing boat were standing at the cabin door waving the flag repeatedly, as if they were signalling something to the other side, but it was to no avail.
“Boom!”
The man who was waving the flag was abruptly thrown up and then fell heavily on the deck, and the flag in his hand was also thrown into the sea.
B*****d!
Ji Feng snorted coldly in his heart, and a murderous look appeared in his eyes.
And this scene also made Xiang Jiefang’s face look ugly as he asked in a deep voice, “Did you send a signal to the other side?”
“Chief, the other side has not replied!” A soldier said.
“Prepare for battle!” Xiang Jiefang said in a cold voice.
“Yes!”
Starting from the naval officer, everyone on the ship went into battle readiness, ready to fight.
In a deep voice, Xiang Jiefang said, “Send another signal to the other side, telling them to stop attacking our fishermen immediately!”
However, there was still no reply.
Nonetheless, one of the warships even took up a fighting stance, with its guns pointed this way, while the other ship was continuing to attack the fishing boats.
“The vertical son is rampant!”
Xiang Jiefang bellowed angrily, “Full speed ahead, rescue the fishermen, if the other side dares to fire, return fire with all your might!”
“Yes!”
This time, that naval officer did not advise again, in fact, Xiang Jiefang did so, which made all the warriors energetic, even the chief commander was like them in the first place, what else was there to be afraid of?
Ji Feng turned around and went to the deck, and Xiang Jiefang didn’t even have time to stop him.
Xiang Jiefang might have thought about the big picture and all sorts of issues, but these issues were not on Ji Feng’s mind, there was only one thing on his mind now, rescuing the fishermen who were being humiliated!
Quickly a*sembling the laser cannon, Ji Feng didn’t even ask the soldier for coordinates and directions, he just observed with his naked eyes, judging the approximate position and firing angle, the laser cannon was made by him, he had it in his mind, even if there was an error, it wouldn’t be too big.
Taking careful aim, Ji Feng looked at the Vietnamese vessel that was attacking the fishing boat with high-pressure water guns and water cannons, and decisively pulled the trigger.
“Poof!”
A rather soft looking ball of light, carrying an energy so terrifying that it was unimaginable, was instantly ejected…
