Ballistic Silence of Special Years

Chapter 869 A Call for Help in the Dark Night
Before he knew it, Li Zheng had been at sea for almost 20 days.

Since entering the Gulf of Aden, the escort mission has hardly stopped.

Here, warships are always in short supply, and merchant ships are always inexhaustible.

And pirates?
That depends on luck.

Fortunately, for several days in a row, the water was quiet and the river was flying, and the channel was quiet.

Unlucky, for several days in a row there were calls everywhere saying that there were pirates.

Li Zheng has gradually gotten used to life at sea.

Life in the Naval Special Forces is very different from Lute's.

What Lu Te faces every day is training, training and retraining, or running around in various harsh environments across the country, where is the most difficult place to practice, or dispatched to perform tasks.

Hite is different.Like the Jiaolong commando, once they are sent out to escort them, they will have to stay at sea for several months.

Every day welcomes the morning glow and sees off the sunset. Warships carry people and sail tirelessly between sunset and sunrise. The sky, earth, sea and sky are all the same color, and the sea is so big that everything you see is sea water except for the blue sky and white clouds.

There is not even a place for training here. What can be practiced is to set up a few targets and practice rapid fire on the deck when the shipboard helicopter has no mission and enters the hangar.

Or release the buoy target on the sea surface and practice shooting at sea targets.

Every few days, the captain will organize VBSS training, and the simulated merchant ship will always be the comprehensive supply ship with the largest tonnage.

The biggest problem is physical training.

There is no field here, so don't even think about armed off-roading. The ship is more than [-] meters long and more than ten meters wide. Even if you are asked to run around, you don't know how many laps to count as a five-kilometer.

So most of the time, physical fitness is done on the deck or in the gym on the ship.

After adapting to this kind of life, Li Zheng once felt that he had entered a period of boredom for a while.

Because everything in the escort operation was carried out in an orderly manner, and the pirates hadn't appeared for some days, the excitement at the beginning gradually faded, and they felt a little boring instead.

The military of special forces is a profession that does not interfere with loneliness.

The officers and soldiers who can join and voluntarily endure the severe test to join this team are eager for challenges. Once they lose the challenge and have to be trapped on a small warship, the restlessness in their hearts will grow unconsciously.

The other sailors on the ship have jobs, and all departments are busy every day. In addition to guarding and standing guard, the special warfare unit is anti-piracy.

After being laid off, the time can only be used for sleeping.

Do you want to chat with someone?
Sorry, no one is free to spend time with you except your own teammates.

There are nearly 2 officers and soldiers on the No. [-] ship. Each officer and soldier has his own battle position. They have heavy tasks and are busy every day to maintain the normal operation of the ship without any problems. Moreover, everyone sleeps in different places. In the cabins, a warship is divided into several floors, and there are many cabins on the first floor, many of which are still strictly confidential and not allowed to enter.

After 20 days in this kind of time, Li Zheng also became a Buddha.

In addition to training and being on duty, with excess energy, he either spends his excess energy in the gym, or sits by the bed, facing his laptop and begins to talk about all the things he has learned during his life in the Navy Special Forces. Tactics were refined and summarized, and some papers on joint operations topics began.

That night, the channel that had been quiet for several days finally sent a message for help from the merchant ship.

Ship No. 2 had just completed a safe and sound escort at this time, and planned to return to the eastern waters and carry out regional patrols from east to west.

At this time, night had just fallen, and the hands of the electronic clock on the wall of the cabin had just pointed to 19:[-]. There was a hasty call from the international maritime public channel, which attracted the attention of the watchman.

"I'm 'Tiange', I'm 'Tiange', I'm currently at XX degrees XX minutes north latitude, XX degrees XX minutes east longitude, I was chased by two unidentified small boats, my ship has now increased its speed to 21 knots , turned off all the lights, and reminded other ships to pay attention!"

Reminding other ships on the public channel is the consistent practice of merchant ships after they are in distress and escaped, and it is also an international practice.

The message sent by the merchant ship caught the attention of the formation command team leader on duty at this time. He looked at the chart and found that the No. 2 ship was not far from the merchant ship at this time, so he immediately contacted them.

"I am the No. 2 ship of the ZG Navy Escort Formation, and I am performing patrol missions in the nearby waters. If there is an emergency, you can contact us."

The team leader immediately notified the ship and another merchant ship "Xinghe" on the radar that was also nearby.

The identities of these two ships are also very clear, both are merchant ships of our own motherland.

Soon, the "Tiange", which sent the warning message first, responded.

"I am the 'Tiange', thanks to the navy of the motherland..."

The voice of the captain of the "Tiange" was full of surprise and excitement.

However, his call was quickly interrupted by sudden whistles and various noises.

It can be heard from the background sound of the channel that there seems to be some sudden accident on board.

The call was interrupted for a while.

"'Tiange', what happened, please answer."

The leader of the command group called several times, but the other party did not respond.

"problem occurs!"

He put down the radio microphone, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart.

The signal officer on duty at the command center reported: "The signal from the Tiange has been interfered. According to the characteristics of the clutter, this is a typical interference pattern adopted by pirate gangs."

This is the age of technology.

Don't think that Somalia is a small country in Africa, those pirates really don't understand anything.

They are also very up to date.

Many pirate gangs now use electronic interference methods when chasing and approaching merchant ships when they hijack ships.

Although their equipment is backward, far below the grade of the most advanced military jamming equipment, but once the distance is close, it can still interfere with merchant ships to a certain extent, making the ships unable to ask for help from the outside world and completely reduced to islands on the sea. Butcher slowly.

The command team leader immediately ordered the duty officer of the signal squad to switch to another channel, keep in touch with the Tiange on a different international channel, and then started to sound the alarm and issued an order.

"Quickly enter the first-level combat deployment, the ship turns and speeds up to approach the Tiange, the special operations team enters a state of combat readiness, strengthens the observation of the sea surface, and the helicopter team is ready to dispatch!"

In the night, the No. 2 ship, like a group of galloping horses, rushed towards the sea area where the merchant ship in distress was located.

The signal squad kept sending notifications to the Tiange to appease their emotions.

"Please keep sailing at a high speed and fixed course. Our ship is approaching you. After rendezvous, it will accompany you on the right rear. Please remain calm, we are here, please rest assured!"

　Ask for a monthly pass!
