After receiving Lin Yuan's order, the landing ship fleet dispatched the No. [-] landing ship Xinsu, carrying a company of engineers, to the largest island-Iki Island.

Liao Yong, the captain of the landing ship, stood on the bridge, looked at the island in the distance, and said to Zhou Ming, the head of the engineering team leading the company: "Old Comrade Zhou, I really don't understand. Can't we go directly to the island? Why? How about reconnaissance? There can be no Japanese army on the island, so what is there to reconnaissance?"

Zhou Ming said with a smile: "There are many things that need to be reconnaissance. For example, which location on the island is suitable for parking the ship, and how large a ship can be parked at the suitable location. These all need to be reconnaissance in advance."

Liao Yong smiled and said: "I also understand those hydrological reconnaissance. What I mean is: let our navy do the hydrological reconnaissance. Why do you have to let your army go to the island so hard?"

Zhou Ming smiled and said: "So what you want to ask is this. We went to the island to scout the topography and geological conditions of the island, to see where is suitable for building warehouses, where is suitable for building roads, and also to see the conditions of the waves. When there are a lot of waves coming ashore, we also need to build breakwaters."

Liao Yong nodded and said with a smile, "I never thought there would be so much talk about building a material transfer island."

Zhou Ming laughed and said, "Of course. But I also have something to ask, that is: Why didn't our beast-class destroyer follow? What if we encounter a Japanese submarine?"

Liao Yong pointed to the sky with a smile, and said, "Don't worry, there are anti-submarine planes up there."

Zhou Ming looked up and looked around, and said: Where is the anti-submarine aircraft?Why can't I see it? "

Liao Yong said with a smile: "It may have got into the clouds. The anti-submarine aircraft dropped sonar buoys in this area of ​​the sea. The monitoring width is as high as [-] kilometers, which is enough to cover all the nearby military ports. As long as the Japanese submarine leaves the military port, we will find it. Not only are there anti-submarine aircraft escorting us, but there are also our submarines underwater, which specialize in hunting down Japanese submarines."

The two were talking, when the navigator came over and said, "Report to the captain, we are only fifteen kilometers away from Iki Island."

Liao Yong raised the binoculars hanging around his neck, and saw that Iki Island was lush with trees and peaceful, so he said, "Let down the boat five kilometers away from Iki Island, and send the comrades of the engineering team to the island."

Zhou Ming said at this time: "Captain, should we send a helicopter to scout the situation on the island? Maybe there are indeed Japanese troops on the island."

Liao Yong laughed loudly and said, "Old Comrade Zhou, you can tell that you have never fought a war. This kind of island is too small to garrison troops, because once we launch an attack, no matter how many people stationed on it will be wiped out by us." , the Japanese commander wouldn’t be so stupid as to put the soldiers on the island for us to annihilate, would he?”

Zhou Ming chuckled and said, "Let's be more cautious."

Liao Yong said: "Alright." Then he turned to the messenger and said, "Order the helicopter to take off to scout the situation on the island and see if there is anyone on the island."

After Liao Yong's order, the pilot Fan Wei drove the helicopter to take off from the landing ship and flew over the island. He circled twice over Iki Island, but found no sign of anyone on the island, so he reported to Liao Yong: " Report to the captain, no human habitation was found on the island."

Liao Yong smiled at Zhou Ming: "Old Comrade Zhou, should you feel at ease now?"

Zhou Ming nodded and said, "Then I'll take people on the boat."

Liao Yong smiled and said, "Don't worry, Comrade Zhou, our Marine Corps will act with you."

Zhou Ming nodded to leave. At this moment, a message came from the radar room: "Report to the captain, the radar has found an unknown object!"

Liao Yong said: "Report the course and speed of the unknown object immediately."

The radar room said: "The unknown object is heading 200 degrees east of north, at a height of 50 meters, relative to our ship's radial speed of [-] meters per second, and the object has been accelerating upward!"

Liao Yong thought in his heart: "What is this?" So he asked: "Is the unknown object a threat to our ship?"

"It's not clear yet," said the radar chief.

Liao Yong said: "Send the radar screen image to the command room immediately!" Not long after, the radar screen image appeared in front of Liao Yong. The direction where the ship is approaching quickly, Liao Yong immediately said: "In the optical detection room, turn the telescope to the target position and use optical means to conduct reconnaissance."

The optical detection room immediately turned the telescope according to the target position sent by the radar room, and soon captured a bright light spot. The optical detection room sent the photo of the light spot to Liao Yong. Liao Yong looked at the light spot under the blue sky , a word instantly jumped into his mind, which made him break out in cold sweat!

That word is - missile!

Liao Yong once saw a photo of a missile launched by a Shenshou-class destroyer. There was only one bright spot in the photo, which was the exhaust flame of the missile engine, and the other parts were difficult to see clearly due to the distance. At this time, the radar chief said: "Report ship Long, the height of the unknown object has dropped, and the radial velocity relative to our ship has increased to 130 meters per second, and it is still increasing, and the acceleration is ominous."

Liao Yong felt astonished, and thought: "This unknown object descended and flew towards us. It must be a missile fired at us!" Liao Yong hurriedly said, "Left full rudder!"

Liao Yong wanted to turn an angle to avoid the missile in the sky. When the target turned, the missile had to turn around to catch up with the target. In the process, the missile might miss the target!Hearing Liao Yong's order, the pilot turned the rudder and said loudly: "full rudder left!"

On a warship, after the captain gives the command to turn the rudder, the pilot must repeat the command to turn the rudder aloud, and report loudly when the command is completed. According to the "Naval Ship Command Regulations" formulated by Lin Yuan, the captain should answer loudly after hearing the pilot's report: "Yes", but Liao Yong couldn't care less about answering. He grabbed the whole ship communicator and shouted: Said: "Attention all ships, missiles are coming, grab the fixed objects around you, this is not a drill, pay attention, this is not a drill!"

After Liao Yong put down the communicator, he firmly grasped the armrest in the command room with both hands. At this moment, he saw the light spot on the radar screen getting closer and closer, and the landing ship was also turning at full speed, and the incoming attack could already be seen through the porthole. Liao Yong violently felt the hull of the ship tremble, and then a loud noise came from the stern of the ship.
