Great warships

Chapter 294 Rang Rang, the hospital ship protected by the Prairie Kingdom Navy is here!
When the eastern sky slowly turned pale, two hundred Scud missiles had already been transported to the Pacific Fleet base, and they were simply covered with camouflage nets, which was considered a temporary end.

If there was no unexpected situation last night, then today, Qin Tao can find a decommissioned warship of the Pacific Fleet or a logistics supply freighter, etc., and transport these treasures back.

But for now, it's just a matter of waiting.

After all, what happened last night made Nicholas very angry. Today, Nicholas needs to meet a lot of people. With this incident, he can express his attitude and make use of it. Of course, Nicholas will use this trick .

Therefore, Qin Tao could only wander around.

After looking at his own missiles and the free launch vehicle, Qin Tao felt extremely at ease. Since the collapse of the Red Empire, it has become easier and easier to make money. This business can earn more than 1 million U.S. dollars, sure enough, the most profitable business in the world is selling arms!
Do I want to go farther and farther on the path of the master?The good things from Lao Maozi's place, if they go to Africa, they will definitely make a lot of money!

No, no, I am an aircraft carrier designer, and I was reborn here to build warships for the motherland's navy, Aegis, a [-]-ton large drive, and an aircraft carrier!
Doing other things should also focus on this purpose, not too far away.

"Your Excellency Yoshikawa, our commander is very busy, and we don't have time to see you right now. Please go back." When Qin Tao strolled to the gate, he saw Varisi dismissing an islander.

"Mr. Varisi, we heard that His Excellency Nikolai was attacked yesterday. We were very worried. Thanks to our Toyota Land Cruiser, we gave His Excellency Nikolai a chance to survive. However, since that car was hit, Then we can’t let His Excellency Nikolai drive it anymore, we need to tow that car away, and then replace it with a new one for His Excellency Nikolai.”

This Nicholas has quite a status. There are so many people rushing to give him benefits. It's a pity that these people didn't find the right direction. That definitely earns trust.

However, there are not many people who can drink. The islanders usually drink sake, so if they drink with Nicholas, they will only be looked down upon by Nicholas.

Nikolai's land cruiser must have been given by an islander, but I don't know what the identity of this islander is?
"No, the car isn't seriously damaged," Varisi said.

"That's not okay. We have the spirit of craftsmanship. As long as it has been hit, no matter how much it is repaired, it will not be able to reach the original level. It must be replaced with a new one. We have already driven the car." Tomiro Yoshikawa said, pointing Pointing to the back, there is an identical Land Cruiser parked there, the most equipped version.

This guy is really polite enough, wait, there seems to be something wrong!
Qin Tao suddenly became vigilant, his eyeballs rolled, and a plan flooded into his mind.

"What's going on?" Qin Tao walked over and asked Varisi.

"Mr. Tomiro Yoshikawa is the person in charge of Toyota Motor Corporation in the Far East. He heard that the Land Cruiser was hit, so he wants to replace Nikolai with a new one," Varisi said.

Yoshikawa Tomiro looked at Qin Tao with puzzled eyes.

Although it has already entered March, the climate in the Far East is still cold. On the distant mountains, the snow has not yet melted. Qin Tao is wearing an old-haired army coat, a mask and a leather hat. Seeing Qin Tao's black eyes, it is impossible to recognize Qin Tao.

"That's it, of course. On behalf of Your Excellency Nicholas, I would like to thank Mr. Penetration for his support. We will accept this new car."

Tomiro Yoshikawa was overjoyed: "Can you give us that old car?"

"No." Qin Tao was categorical: "Your Excellency Nicholas said that that car saved his life, and he was very grateful for that car. The car didn't need to be repaired, it just kept it as it was, and it was parked in his garage .”

what?
Yoshikawa Tomiro's face changed slightly.

Qin Tao moved closer, and whispered in his ear: "Mr. Penetrating the Crotch, you also know that what happened last night annoyed His Excellency Nicholas very much. The car is kept as evidence. , it would be very inappropriate if you dragged it away."

Having said so much, Tomiro Yoshikawa knew that his purpose this time might be defeated. However, the other party wanted to keep the vehicle as it was, and there would be no problems in a short time. Let's look for opportunities later.

"Okay, let's keep this car, please convey my greetings to Your Excellency Nikolai." After finishing speaking, Yoshikawa Tomiro bowed: "Thank you."

"Slow down, Mr. Crotch Breaker."

Looking at the back of the other party leaving, Varisi said to Qin Tao with some doubts: "Qin, what you just said was an order from His Excellency Nicholas?"

"Your Excellency Nicholas has no time to take care of these little things." Qin Tao said: "So, let me do it for you, go, drive in this car, and go to the crashed car, if I guess correctly , the islanders must have ulterior motives!"

Varisi nodded. He followed Zaitsev and accompanied Qin Tao on business many times. He naturally knew Qin Tao's position with Nikolai. Qin Tao could indeed make decisions about such trivial matters.

Soon, the two stood in front of the crashed Lu Xun.

Although the front of the car was seriously damaged, the entire passenger compartment remained intact. In this era, this kind of car doesn't need to be lightened.

"What's the matter? Is there something wrong with this car?" Varisi couldn't help asking, seeing Qin Tao's hesitant expression.

"I suddenly remembered that when I was in Moscow last time, the car of the Yakovlev Design Bureau was planted with a bomb."

Varisi shook his head: "Of course we have checked everything. There is no bomb inside. If Tomiro Yoshikawa dares to do such tricks, then His Excellency Nikolai will definitely let us blow his head off!"

"Well, the possibility of a bomb is unlikely, but it is still possible to install a bug in it, a positioning system, etc. Have you looked for it?"

"Of course I did. After the car was delivered, it drove to the Far East Branch of the National Security Agency. The people there have already checked it carefully with professional instruments."

Qin Tao shook his head: "If the other party has installed a positioning device, then these systems can be temporarily turned off in a special place when necessary."

"You really know a lot, Qin, let's check it now?" Varisi asked Qin Tao.

"Give me your saber."

Qin Tao looked at the neat interior, his eyes finally stopped at a certain place, and then he stretched out the knife.

Anyway, this car has already been crashed, and the islanders sent a new one, so even if the car is destroyed beyond recognition, Nikolai will not say anything, Qin Tao can boldly say hand.

The knife cut to the roof facing the left rear seat.

This feeling is an absolute decompression.

With a bang, something fell.

Varisi quickly reached out and picked up the thing.

A small piece with hair-thin wires and a small hole on it. Looking at that thing, Varisi's face suddenly changed: Really?
Qin Tao's expression also changed, damn, why is my luck so good?
The positioning device of the car can be installed anywhere, but the bug is not good. If the bug is installed deep, the sound will be blocked and you can't hear it clearly.

Generally speaking, it can be installed under the driver's and co-pilot's seats, inside the center console, and inside the A-pillar, and it is also necessary to avoid the interference source of the car's audio.

Since Nicholas is riding in this car, the most suitable place for him to sit is behind the driver.

The rear row is the leading seat, and the left side of the rear row is behind the driver, which is the safest.

The top left side of the rear row is the best location for eavesdropping, and unless the roof of the car is flooded, generally speaking, no one will take the initiative to cut the roof.

Although these are all Qin Tao's judgments, it can only be said that he was lucky to find out this thing all at once!

Half an hour later, Nikolai came here. At this time, professionals continued to dismantle the car. In different parts of the car, other devices were found, such as positioning devices, exquisite control and launch devices, etc. .

With a pale face, Nicholas gritted his teeth and said, "This car was given to me by Tomiro Yoshikawa, the salesman of Toyota in the Far East. I thought they were kind enough to eavesdrop on intelligence. If that's the case, don't blame me. You are welcome! Zaitsev, lead an army and surround that sales company!"

Nicholas was very angry.

"Nicholas, it's not very good for you to do this, it will easily cause unnecessary diplomatic disputes." Qin Tao suggested to Nicholas.

"Then what should we do?"

"Pretend not to know, and then, how about digging a hole for them?"

Nicholas looked puzzled: "Dig a hole? Qin, how should we dig a hole?"

"Nicolas, do you still remember what happened on the Tuapus?" Qin Tao asked.

"Of course we must not forget that it is a disgrace to our Pacific Fleet."

For the tough old Maozi, this matter was too suffocating.This shame will never be forgotten. Now, when Qin Tao mentioned this matter, Nicholas immediately felt aggrieved.

If there was the Minsk at that time, then I would have driven the Minsk there to see if those people dared to be presumptuous.

"Now, we can do the same thing, and build the plank road in the open and keep the warehouse in the dark." Qin Tao said.

After listening to Qin Tao's suggestion, Nicholas smiled all over his face.

March [-]th.

There are white clouds overhead, and the sea is calm, which is a good weather for sailing.

A [-]-ton ship is sailing in this sea area. From the front, it looks like a cruise ship with a four-story superstructure. From the back, it looks like a helicopter carrier. There is a large flight deck at the rear.However, on the side of its hull, a red cross is painted, representing its identity: a hospital ship.

Hospital ships have a long history. Since sea navigation and sea combat have occurred, there has also been the important task of rescuing the wounded at sea. Rescuing the dying and healing the wounded is the instinct of doctors, whether on land or at sea.

Therefore, the medical ship came into being and gradually became more professional.

For example, the large helicopter deck at the back is definitely not used as a helicopter carrier, but because the efficiency of dispatching helicopters is the highest to rescue the wounded. Although there are a row of small lifeboats on the side of the ship, it is obviously not as convenient and quick as using helicopters .

Regardless of whether it is a warship of any country, as long as it rests on this cross, it is not allowed to attack. This is protected by international conventions.

In times of war, medical ships need to rescue the wounded. In peacetime, medical ships can also play a huge role in rescue and disaster relief. In 1978, the Mercy Ships organization was established, and private medical ships developed vigorously, and some fleets were decommissioned. Yes, some of them are specially built. These medical ships save lives and heal the wounded, but they do not belong to any country, so these ships fly flags of convenience when sailing.

Flag of convenience means convenience. Ships do not need to sail in the waters of a certain country. It is just for convenience to register in a country with loose ship registration, obtain the nationality of the country, and fly the national flag of the country.

Now, this medical ship is flying the flag of the steppe country, which makes it look a little funny.

Anyone who is familiar with it will know that this medical ship should belong to the Pacific Fleet, and its original name was the Wardra River.

This is a hospital ship commissioned by the Pacific Fleet in the 50s. It has a history of 40 years. Years of trekking has made it staggering, slow, and rusty all over, so that there is no hull number. up.

This old ship has been decommissioned for seven or eight years. It is replaced by the Type 320 Ob River-class hospital ship. There are four ships of this class, namely "Obi River", "Yenisei River", The "Svir River" and "Irtysh River" have a displacement of about 11350 tons. After entering service, they immediately became the backbone of Lao Maozi's medical ship.

The old hospital ship should have been decommissioned long ago.

Now, the medical ship that has turned into scrap iron appeared on the sea. This will be its last voyage. Next, waiting for its fate, it must be dismantled.

However, on its rear deck, I don't know what was put there, it was bulging, and it was covered with a tarpaulin, but from the outside, you can see what should be a cylinder inside.

There was a rumbling sound in the sky, and a helicopter with plaster flags flew over.

"Listen to the medical ship of the Prairie Country below. We suspect that you are carrying contraband. Please stop the ship immediately and undergo inspection!"

The plaster flag's helicopter circled the ship three times, and then, just as it was about to hover over the medical ship and cable down the personnel, another helicopter flew over.

There are two large plates on the top of this helicopter. Just by looking at this shape, you can tell that it belongs to Lao Maozi's carrier-based helicopter!
This kind of helicopter appeared nearby, which meant that Lao Maozi's warship was also nearby!
Sure enough, half an hour later, fifty nautical miles away, on the bridge of the destroyer with hull number 151, the captain was surprised to see a huge fleet approaching them.

"Damn it, that's the Novorossiysk! We've been tricked!"

Originally thought that there would be Lao Maozi's destroyers nearby, at most they would be Dreadnought-class or Modern-class, but unexpectedly, it was the big guys in Lao Maozi's Pacific Fleet that were dispatched!
Destroyer No. 151 was soon surrounded. The captain was terrified and called for reinforcements.

"Listen to No. 151 in front, we suspect that you are carrying contraband, please stop the ship immediately and accept inspection!"

This moment is the most glorious moment for Lao Maozi's Pacific Fleet. They finally avenged the Tuapus last time!
The conflict broke out suddenly, and the islanders went crazy.

On the TV, the host of the island country was filled with righteous indignation.

"We have every reason to believe that there are a large number of Scud missiles on the rear deck of the scrapped medical ship! This is a serious arms smuggling case, and it is the culprit behind the proliferation of Scud missiles! We want to board the ship for inspection!"

On the TV screen, the image on the rear deck of the medical ship is clearly visible, and what is covered under the thatch is 100% Scud missiles!
"This medical ship is flying the national flag of the grassland country. Even if it is to come forward, it should be the navy of the grassland country. It has nothing to do with Da Mao's Pacific Fleet! It is precisely because there are contraband on it that the Da Mao navy will do this in a hurry!"

If you dare not come hard, then come soft.

Some island fishermen with white cloths on their heads took action, driving their own fishing boats, circling around the hospital ship, preventing the hospital ship from moving forward, and at the same time supervising the people on board. If those things were thrown into the sea, what would happen? It is absolutely impossible to destroy evidence.

At this critical moment, Nicola was also interviewed.

"This is a slander to our Pacific Fleet!" Nicholas was extremely angry: "This hospital ship used to be the Wardra River of our Pacific Fleet, but it was decommissioned a few years ago. , It is a ship belonging to a non-governmental organization in the grassland country. Our fleet happened to be training nearby. After receiving the distress signal, it provided support in the past. Now, we declare that the sea area belongs to our exercise area, and we may launch missiles at any time , if accidental injury is caused, all ships that break into our exercise area will be responsible!"

During the stalemate, someone came out to mediate, but Nicholas still did not let go: "Why do they check? What power do they have? Even if it is really a Scud missile, a missile with a range of less than [-] kilometers is allowed internationally. We can sell it openly, why hide it? Some people have ulterior motives, this is slander!"

"What? Since there is no one, then you can make it public and prove your innocence? Why? Unless those who request inspection, give us a deposit of 1000 million US dollars first! If there are Scud missiles on it, we will post 1000 million US dollars, if not, this A security deposit will be confiscated as a punishment!"

Check it if you want to check it, make it public if you want us to?

Take the money out first!
Nicola insisted.

So, some people gritted their teeth and really came here with 1000 million US dollars!
Now that you have the money, let's make it public!
Countless pairs of eyes were staring at the hospital ship. There were seven or eight helicopters circling in the sky, and there were countless fishing boats nearby.

When the thatch was uncovered, everyone held their breath.

Scud missiles, must be Scud missiles!
The TV station in the island country was broadcasting live, and the host was there, shouting something non-stop.

I don't know how many viewers are in front of the TV, and they are also paying attention to this scene.

The old man wants 1000 million, just to scare them off!The old man never thought about it, they really gave 1000 million. Now, the old man can't get off the tiger, so he can only make it public. As long as the Scud missile comes out, the old man will be completely discredited!

A corner of the thatch was uncovered, exposing the cylinder inside. Many people were delighted. Looking at the thickness, it looked like a scud!

Wait, there seems to be something wrong. If it is the tail of the Scud, there should be four wings. If it is the head, it should be pointed. This cylinder... Could it be that the four wings were removed?

That's right, it must have been dismantled, otherwise it would be inconvenient to transport.

They continue to look forward.

The cylinder keeps revealing its true face, getting longer and longer.

"No, this is not a Scud missile. Its length has exceeded that of a Scud. Could it be that this is a more advanced missile, such as a spider?"

"Hey, what's that? Point the camera at that scar-like thing and zoom in!"

A white scar appeared on the body of the missile, which aroused the host's curiosity.

Zooming in, you can see that there are circles of things inside the scar, so clear and familiar.

It's... tree rings!

Nima, the cylinder on the rear deck of this medical ship is not a missile, but a ship of wood!
