Chapter 881: Raising the Flag and Setting Sail
Zeng Wangcai hung up the phone, his eyes full of joy.
"Brother, what's the matter?" Xiaohu asked with interest.
"Good news, the Seventh Fleet has received reinforcements!" Zeng Wangcai said with a smile, "We are lucky this time, we can see the American aircraft carrier, I am so sad!"
I feel sorry?
What do you mean?
Xiaohu and Lin Huyang didn't understand at all.
"The commander is talking about one of the Seventh Fleet's aircraft carriers!" Captain Yang explained, "This aircraft carrier is named after the old American president. Internally, they like to call it Baby George."
"Aircraft carrier?" Xiaohu looked surprised, but actually... he had no idea what an aircraft carrier was.
Zeng Wangcai gave Captain Yang an approving look without explaining, and took out his phone to send a message to the five-member group: "Everyone, the American aircraft carrier has been dispatched. It's getting more and more lively now. Everyone, prepare to raise the flag and set sail!"
After getting off 052, Zeng Wangcai returned to Wangye Island. In the evening, he met Yellen and Mason who were waiting for him.
Zeng Wangcai smiled gratefully: "Hey brother, thank you so much for bringing me such good news. Your fleet actually dispatched an aircraft carrier. It's my honor. The drone will be escorted by the aircraft carrier fleet and will definitely be delivered to the port on time. It seems that it is just as you said. Only you can match the Russian fleet..."
Do you think that the aircraft carrier is coming here to guard against the Soviet fleet?
No, that’s not the case. The aircraft carrier is here to guard against you!
No matter how powerful the Russian bear is, they still abide by certain rules and dare not act recklessly. You are the one who should be worried about.
After the second season, you are the only one who destroyed three warships at once. Okay...
Yellen and Mason looked at Zeng Wangcai's mouth opening and closing, and were speechless.
Of course they know the ultimate reason why the aircraft carrier was deployed, but they will not say it.
"Your money is well spent!" Yellen responded with a smile, "We have received an order to ask you when to set sail and then give you a password. After arriving at the designated sea area, you need to join the communication channel."
"No problem, everything is ready!" Zeng Wangcai said enthusiastically, "We can set sail at any time. I invite you to take 055 to the designated sea area. If you like, you can stay on the ship until your port."
"Let us go on a warship?" Yellen looked strange, not knowing what Zeng Wangcai was up to.
"Of course!" Zeng Wangcai said with certainty, "We are brothers. I have already introduced the situation of 055 to you before. There is nothing to keep secret from you. Don't worry, 055 is very comfortable to ride."
"Well... okay!" Yellen agreed after hesitating for a while.
Everything will be easy once you’re on board!
Damn, one more bargaining chip!
Zeng Wangcai was secretly happy but appeared very calm on the surface.
At midnight that night, Zeng Wangcai came to the hotel, took Yellen and Mason straight to the naval port, sent them on the ship, and then waved to them from below.
"No... aren't you going to come up?" Seeing that Zeng Wangcai was not getting on board, Yellen was a little panicked.
"Brother, this is not my boat!" Zeng Wangcai said with a smile, "You can go without worry, I'm on another boat... Tiezi, take good care of my brothers for me!"
"Night market!" The captain of the 055 ship, Yu Tie, saluted with a smile.
Yu Tie certainly knew what happened to the two fools after they were tricked into boarding the ship. After responding to Zeng Wangcai, he half-turned around and waved to two elite navy soldiers: "You two, take the commander's brother to the cabin, the best cabin!"
"Yes......"
Yellen and Mason were nervously "escorted" to the cabin by armed soldiers, and then they were dumbfounded.
God, will the cabin of a battleship be the same as that of a luxury cruise ship?
Not good!
But now that they are here, Yellen and Mason are like sheep among wolves, not even daring to bleat, let alone oppose.
Zeng Wangcai watched 055 leave the port, and his smile gradually disappeared.
"It's begun..." he muttered to himself, then stepped onto the yacht and headed out to the sea.
After leaving the port, Zeng Wangcai immediately changed boats, exchanging the yacht for a six-ball street scooter.
He was already very familiar with the street, because he had set the coordinates in the space in advance and turned on the automatic cruise, Zeng Wangcai could operate the radar with peace of mind.
Soon, five ships appeared on Jie Liuzi's radar.
"Alright, guys... raise the flag and set sail!"
However, since it was an escort, they certainly couldn't just leave. After going out to sea and arriving at the designated sea area, the freight fleet soon followed and appeared on the radar of the street driver.
Zeng Wangcai took control of everything and ordered the fleet to sail along the predetermined route.
On the vast ocean, the George Big Baby of the Seventh Fleet was sailing steadily, escorted by two frigates on both sides.
As for other warships, such as the Ticonderoga-class cruisers, they were not within the aircraft carrier's naked sight. These ships were spread out around the aircraft carrier, monitoring a large area of sea.
Not far from Baby George, a ship named Blue Bridge was in the middle of the fleet formation.
This ship is Miller's command ship!
In the end, Miller, who was not supposed to go on this mission, still went out. This shows that the Americans are not confident in Zeng Wangcai and his fleet.
In the command room of the command ship, Miller still had a cup of coffee and a deep look in his eyes.
The voices of officers were heard one after another, receiving messages from various ships and conveying orders.
"General!" Reyes walked over to Miller and reported, "We are about to reach the designated sea area. Our radar has captured the cargo ship, but... there is no sign of the Allied forces."
"Hmm?" Miller frowned, "Order the radar to expand the search range!"
"Yes, General!" Reyes took the order and left.
Soon, the order was conveyed from the command room.
After a while, the ships reported back, and Reyes came over to report again: "General, we haven't found them. Our radar has been extended to the limit, but we can't find them."
"Could it be that they haven't arrived yet?" Miller's brows were still furrowed. "That shouldn't be the case. The cargo ship has arrived, so they can't possibly not arrive. Did something unexpected happen? No, this place is still far away from the possible dangerous sea area..."
"General, there's a signal coming in... Uh, he said his name is Zeng Wangcai, and he's the commander of the 055 fleet!"
hiss......
Miller narrowed his eyes. "They have the code, so they can pass... No... Reyes, order all ships to search for the target again."
"yes....."
Reyes went to relay the order while Miller picked up the intercom and put it on.
Zeng Wangcai's voice came from the intercom: "Calling Seagull, calling Seagull, I am Seahorse, I am Seahorse, please answer if you hear me, Ou'er!"
The two code names, Seagull and Seahorse, were not chosen by Zeng Wangcai himself, but assigned by the Seventh Fleet.
This proves that there was nothing wrong with Zeng Wangcai's call.
But Miller sounded very... familiar!
He remembered that many years ago, this voice was very similar to Han Qiaosheng's with a changed voice. Could it be...
