Chapter 281 Is the battleship coming??(1/2)
On the island 200 kilometers away from 055d, several fishermen were staring blankly at the line where the sea and sky meet in the distance.
Just now, they poured the last boat of sand and stone into the sea and widened the land under their feet to an area of nearly 5 square meters.
This is an amazing achievement, because since the Chinese coast guard ships began routine patrols, the area of this island has not exceeded two square meters.
Either the coast guard ship came to rush over today, or their fishermen passed by and dug a few shovels along the way. Many of the mud and sand they worked hard to pull over were taken away by the other fishermen, and they used it as the ballast stones in the boat.
A fisherman took out a cigarette from his pocket, took a deep breath, and then asked:
"You guys say they won't really hit the shells here, are they?"
The partner on the side shook his head and replied firmly:
"How is it possible! The exercise area they draw every time is huge, and the periphery is not even involved."
"Don't worry, the news we received this time is that what they are going to test seems to be a new type of artillery. How long can the range of the artillery be? It would be amazing if it hits a hundred kilometers."
"We are still two hundred kilometers away from them now. What are they going to do? It must be gunfire missiles! Since it is a missile, there is nothing to worry about? You have seen the accuracy of their missiles. Not to mention two kilometers, even 20 meters, it will not be able to explode us."
"It's probably not possible to have twenty meters...it will explode."
"...I'm just giving an example! You idiot! Okay, lift our drone and fly higher, so that I can see what they are doing."
Hearing his words, his companion on the side quickly took out a sealed box from underwater, opened it in a few seconds, and took out a four-axis drone from it.
The body of this drone clearly has the three letters "dji".
"Captain, what are we looking at with drones? We can't see their warships two hundred kilometers away..."
"You are really a fool! Did I ask you to see the warship? That thing is a spy, how dare you see it? What I ask you to see is their target! Just see clearly what they used to hit the target!"
The captain's face showed anger of regret. When facing his subordinates, he felt a sense of suffocation of his IQ being pulled down.
For example, when the coast guard ship came to warn him, he had already agreed with these people in advance, saying that he was just a fisherman who came to fish and rest while he was resting. Because the boat was broken, he had to wait here.
The sea area where they are located is the high seas and is not under the jurisdiction of any national power, so the reason for their own fishing here is very legitimate - take a step back, even if it is clearly stated that it is necessary to watch the fun, no one can stop it. After all, there is freedom of navigation in the high seas.
But there was still a fool in the team who took out the shovel and was caught by the other party.
That's right, if you want to watch the cannon, then sit and watch it. It's not just your family who are watching the fun on this sea. Anyway, the real secrets are two hundred kilometers away, and you can't see them.
But, do you want to reclaim the sea?
Sorry, don't let it go.
This is the usual style of China. The captain has long been used to it. Generally speaking, it is better to withdraw, but today it is a bit different.
He really has to watch this excitement.
Therefore, the situation was extremely anxious at that time. Fortunately, the other party's coast guard ship did not seem to want to stay in this area for too long, and finally gave up dissuading himself.
This made the captain feel relieved, because if the other party really wanted to drive people away, he would not be able to watch this excitement, and even if he went back, he would not have any good results.
Thinking of this, he cursed and unfolded the drone's remote control and began to control the drone to fly towards the target two kilometers away.
The image of the drone was transmitted back to the screen in his hand through DJI's OC image transmission system. He controlled the drone to fly around the target and found that it was just a floating island tied up with a few floats, with an area of no more than 10 square meters.
This made him more determined to his guess.
At this distance, he could not think of any other way except gunfire missiles.
Therefore, the superior's guess at the beginning was correct. Although this drill in China sounded quite terrifying, it was just some old techniques in the final analysis.
Cannon-fired missiles?
It’s not only them that have it, and their own country is actually not much worse in this regard.
In fact, the army has already used 9m119 gun-fired missiles. In addition to being a little more expensive, the accuracy is slightly worse and the range is slightly shorter. In fact, there is no disadvantage.
As long as we develop well for a few more years, one day we will be able to compete with China at sea.
He estimated the time when the exercise began, gently pushed the joystick to raise the drone, then adjusted the camera downward, and began to quietly wait for the impending explosion.
Time passed by minute by minute, and fine beads of sweat had already oozed out of the captain's forehead. He cursed a few times in anger. Several team members who were stunned around hurried over and held up an umbrella for him.
There was no movement in the target in the distance, and for a moment, the captain even doubted whether they had given up on the target.
Are you really afraid of accidental injury?
Speaking of this, their gunfire missiles are not very accurate...... Two hundred kilometers, the error within two kilometers cannot be controlled, and the gap with them does not seem to be that big.
-----No, even worse than our own.
After all, the error of its own gun-fired missile within a range of 4,000 meters is only less than 5 meters.
Thinking of this, he felt a little proud.
The Chinese Navy is just like this...
However, before this thought could be turned around in his mind, he saw a strange scene on the screen.
The floating island target under the drone was broken without warning.
It seems to be penetrated by something.
Then, huge splashes of water rose from the sea, and the splashes even splashed on the drone cameras hundreds of meters high.
The captain looked at the screen in a daze. He turned the camera in a hurry, but after he surrounded it 360 degrees, he found that there was no missile trajectory in the nearby sky!
What's going on?
Is this a pre-buried mine?
Just like what the troops I was in before, I directly bombed the target as a successful exercise?
Not right!
Where is the explosion of fire??
It's not a missile or a pre-buried mine... So what's going on?
A thought suddenly flashed through his mind that scared him.
This is not, it's really a cannon, right?
Cannon with a range of 200 kilometers??
His face gradually became solemn.
If there is really such a weapon, then the launch platform they use is definitely not an ordinary destroyer.
There is absolutely no destroyer in the world that can carry a giant cannon with a range of 200 kilometers.
Unless it is a battleship!
Is China starting to build battleships again?
Is the world's navy changing so fast? What decades ago is now starting to go to the front line again?
He immediately began to withdraw the drone, intending to report his news to his superiors in the shortest time after evacuation. However, some things flew faster than the drone.
It's a shell.
Those shells were like their own tracking function, following the flight trajectory of the drone, unbiasedly blowing up water in the direction of their advance.
The drone's control has begun to fail, and his heart is getting colder.
Such accuracy, such shooting speed...
There is definitely more than one cannon.
Definitely a battleship!
He no longer cared about drones. In the face of such a major discovery, a small drone was nothing.
The captain suddenly threw the remote control in his hand, rushed onto the fishing boat, then roared and called everyone onto the boat, and started the engine in a hurry.
At this moment, the splash extending from the water was getting closer and closer, and the closest shell was no more than 500 meters away from them!
They came for this island!
The captain looked at the water splash that was still approaching, like a ghost. He could not understand what was happening in front of him. He could not understand where these shells came from, nor could he understand why there was no trace of smoke in the sky. But he knew that if he was really targeted by the other party, his small fishing boat would definitely not be able to withstand a shot!
After more than ten seconds, a splash of water bloomed less than three hundred meters away. This time, he finally barely saw the direction of the splash.
At that angle, it is definitely a shell.
"Go away! Go away!"
The captain pushed the accelerator violently, and a burst of black smoke came out of the small fishing boat and began to slowly sail away from the island.
He still had a hint of luck in his heart. Maybe the other party was just a demonstration? Or maybe he just misstepped?
Maybe it wasn't for myself?
However, the next second, his fantasy was completely broken.
Accompanied by a loud noise from a shell hitting the rocks, the island they had been operating for more than ten years went into the sky without warning.
The rocks collapsed, huge water columns mixed with mud and sand rose, and waves as high as two meters were rolling and surging.
"careful!!"
He no longer cared about other team members because he knew that under such waves, his fishing boat would be overturned immediately!
To be continued...
