Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1395: The Most Beautiful Fireworks

Zhao Liangze used almost all the restraint and acting skills he could muster in his life to smile in front of the clueless Gu Nianzhi while hiding his tears, “Okay, we’ll be at the southern military port in 12 days. Contact Big Xiong and he’ll take you there.”

“Ah? I still need Brother Xiong? Can’t I go alone? I don’t want to trouble Brother Xiong...” Gu Nianzhi said pitifully on purpose. “Brother Xiong is so fierce, I’m so scared...”

“You’re scared of Big Xiong?” Zhao Liangze almost snorted. “Nianzhi, we haven’t seen each other for a few months, and your acting has deteriorated. It’s too exaggerated.”

Gu Nianzhi snorted and sniffed. “This is called humor. Humor, you understand?”

“I’m an old man, I don’t understand what you young people are on to nowadays.” Zhao Liangze took a deep breath, and continued to explained, “Because it’s a military port, no one can enter without a certain level of security. Although your security level is high, you’re not a military staff, so you still need Big Xiong to accompany you.”

Gu Nianzhi understood and quickly nodded. “Okie! I’ll go find Brother Xiong to take me there.”

“Good girl,” Zhao Liangze habitually praised her, but his chest was filled with desolation. He had never known that he could cry so badly and smile so happily at the same time.

After notifying Gu Nianzhi, Zhao Liangze sent a message to Yin Shixiong to tell him to take her to the military port.

He didn’t want to talk, so he didn’t call him.

After arranging Gu Nianzhi’s schedule, Zhao Liangze washed his face and returned to the radar room. He said to Huo Shaoheng, “Chief, everything is arranged. Big Xiong will bring Nianzhi to wait for us at the military port in 12 days.”

It would only take half a day to fly from the imperial capital to the southern military port.

“Mmm,” Huo Shaoheng replied. He looked up and was about to continue giving orders when he suddenly saw Zhao Liangze’s slightly swollen eyes. He frowned slightly and looked down as if nothing had happened. “Go get Chen Lie to apply some cream to your eyes.”

At that moment, Chen Lie was in the compartment of the cement submarine hidden under the deck. He was commanding his men to build a sealed cabin filled with nitrogen to contain the submarine.

After the sealed cabin filled with nitrogen was built, they could enter with oxygen tanks on their backs. In the sealed cabin filled with nitrogen, they could open the door of the submarine and enter it, and drag out the bodies of the four spies.

He had nothing to do for the next 12 days, so he could dissect the bodies of the four spies to pass the time. He could also test their DNA and check their genealogy.

Zhao Liangze rubbed his eyes embarrassedly and said, “I’m fine... I went out just now and the sea breeze was blowing in my eyes.”

Huo Shaoheng glanced at him and didn’t bring up the topic anymore. He said, “If you’re fine, then that’s great. Take over the radar control here. I’m going to command the battle on the cruiser.”

“Battle?!” Zhao Liangze suddenly became nervous. “What battle?! We’re the research ship!”

Huo Shaoheng pointed at a few dense red dots on the active phased array radar display. “The wild dogs are already blocking our way. Do you think we should let them go for free?”

“Yes, Chief!”

Zhao Liangze took the radar control room from Huo Shaoheng with a solemn expression and prepared to coordinate the battle.

...

In the bay about 200 nautical miles away from the Huaxia Empire’s research, several white warships were ready to set off.

In the captain’s cabin of the largest warship, a tall black man in a camouflaged military uniform was talking to the leaders of the nearby military bases through a satellite video call.

They were all speaking English.

“The honorable section chief, the target this time is not small. We feel that 100 million US dollars is too little. It’s not enough to make us risk our lives for it,” the black man said arrogantly, his face full of mischief.

The person who spoke to him was the head of the Japanese special higher section, Yamaguchi Hideda.

“This isn’t fair is it, raising the price at the last minute?” Yamaguchi Hideda narrowed his eyes, “Moreover, you and I both know that all you need to do is come out with a ship; the warships behind will all be our people. You can earn 100 million US dollars just by putting on a pretense. You don’t even need to really risk your lives for it...”

“Haha, is that so? Alright, you are the one who said that we just need to be bait. Don’t blame us if you can’t beat them...”

“Nonsense! How can we lose to them?!” Yamaguchi Hideda had an arrogant look on his face as he inwardly cursed these Somali pirates for being uncultured and not understanding history.

The Great Japan Empire’s Navy had once dominated the beaten up those tattered ships of Huaxia 100 years ago.

How could Huaxia own a Navy?!

“Alright, alright! Of course, it’s good that you guys can fight. Then let’s agree that we’re just a cover and won’t interfere. If you want us to fight...”

The black man moved his fingers and mimicked the action of counting money.

Yamaguchi Hideda secretly cursed this pirate for being so greedy, but he still had to placate him, at least on the surface. “Okay, okay, okay, but you guys have to fire the first shot. Only when they return fire can you guys run. Do you understand?”

“Yes, Sir!” The black man raised his right hand and placed it in front of his forehead. He forcefully waved it forward and gave a Western military salute.

...

The Huaxia Empire’s research fleet sailed at high speed on the sea. Before the sky turned dark, the entire fleet had sailed into a sea area.

This was still the open sea, and the terrain of this sea area was quite special. The islands formed by coral reefs were scattered all over the place, and the waterways were winding, making it very difficult to sail.

However, that was in the past. Now that they had satellite navigation and satellite mapping, they could clearly study the shapes of the islands and reefs here.

Thus, they followed the route that they had already set and moved forward at full speed.

When the last trace of sun in the sky set into the horizon, the colorful glow of the sunset instantly lit up the sky.

The glow of the sunset was like a backdrop, with the entire sea area as a stage. A dramatic show was slowly starting to unfold.

Huo Shaoheng stood in the captain’s cabin of the cruiser, wearing a Bluetooth headset. The screen in front of him displayed a real-time nautical chart.

On the chart, he was monitoring every movement in and out of the sea within a 500-nautical-mile radius.

The NANDOU satellite’s global networking system demonstrated its unique advantage here.

“Report, a warship has appeared at three o’clock.”

“Report, a submarine has appeared 150 nautical miles below the surface of the sea.”

“Report, a warship has appeared at 6 o’clock.”

“Report, a warship has appeared at 9 o’clock.”

“Report, a warship has appeared at 12 o’clock.”

“Report, a fighter plane has taken off and is flying towards us.”

“Report, the enemy has deployed an electronic shielding system. Please give instructions, please give instructions.”

The soldiers in charge of monitoring the situation reported the enemy’s movements to Huo Shaoheng in an orderly manner.

Battleships were appearing in all directions in this open sea area at this time. What did this mean?

Even those who were did not need to be especially alert knew that they were not friendly.

Zhao Liangze, who was in the radar surveillance center area, broke out in cold sweat.

He knew that the Japanese might cause trouble, but like Gu Xiangwen, he had also underestimated the Japanese’s determination and the extent of their madness.

“They sent so many warships, planes, and submarines, and even set up an electronic shield. Do they want to declare war on us?! Or do they think we’re pushovers?!”

Zhao Liangze slammed his fist angrily on the table.

Huo Shaoheng looked on more closely than he did.

He was calm and composed as he gave the order to the nuclear submarines on his side.

“150 nautical miles ahead, 45 degrees, destroy the enemy’s submarines. Make each shot a fatal one. No matter how many submarines the enemy has, destroy them all.”

Huo Shaoheng said coldly and gave out his first order.

Everything else was easy to deal with; however, the submarine’s movements at the bottom of the sea were too unpredictable and difficult to deal with, so he chose to take out the enemy’s submarines first.

The Japanese were too conceited when it came to their confidence in their own navy.

Not only did they send warships, but they also sent submarines proudly.

In fact, the first area that the Huaxia Empire’s Navy expanded were the submarines, and their nuclear submarine technology was one of the best on All Blue Star.

The Huaxia Empire’s largest nuclear submarine could carry 480 nuclear warheads at one time.

The significance of these nuclear warheads was that if it was enraged, it could fire the nuclear warheads it carried all at once. Without aiming at anything in particular, it could destroy half of blue planet by merely relying on the explosive yield of the warheads.

The consequence of this kind of nuclear intimidation was that even if the other party discovered the location of this nuclear submarine, they could only watch helplessly as it swam freely in the four oceans. Sometimes, it would appear along the coast of Hawaii for sightseeing, sometimes, it would come out of the waters of Diaoyu Dao to take a breather, but no one dared to attack it.

This was because if anyone attacked it, they would equivalently be courting death.

This kind of “one against many” method truly demonstrated the meaning of “In the face of absolute power, all schemes and tricks are meaningless”.

Of course, the nuclear submarines that Huo Shaoheng used this time was not the largest. It only carried a few dozen submarine-launched ballistic missiles, but it was enough to deal with the other party’s motley crew.

With Huo Shaoheng’s order, the nuclear submarine that was escorting them immediately reloaded according to the data provided by him. At the same time, they searched with radar and locked onto the position of the enemy’s submarine first.

“Huaxia No. 1, Fire!”

The JL-1 mini submarine-launched ballistic missile that was carried by the nuclear submarine shot out from the submarine’s muzzle. It sped forward silently like a small dolphin in the sea.

The Japanese submarine 150 nautical miles ahead suddenly found themselves locked on by radar, and a ballistic missile was speeding toward them!

The distance was too short, and the ballistic missile was too fast.

There was no time to dodge.

They could only watch as the missile as fast as a dolphin came straight at them...

When it was about to approach the enemy submarine, the ballistic missile shed its gentle and interesting shell, revealing the fiercely burning shell warhead inside.

Boom!

Deep in the sea, a series of explosions echoed from the bottom of the water.

The Japanese submarines were almost instantly hit by a torpedo. The hull made of Kobe Steel was already of questionable integrity. Now, it shattered into pieces and scattered in the depths of the ocean.

At the same time, streaks of flames shot out from the bottom of the sea, sandwiched between the snow-white waves that were splashing everywhere. They complemented the blazing sunset in the sky, as if they were a display of fireworks on the surface of the sea.

Colorful and beautiful.

It bloomed in the night sky for a long time, and the surface of the sea was similarly incessantly turbulent.

The officers and soldiers of the expedition fleet could not take their eyes off the magnificent scene on the sea not far away. They all thought that this was the most beautiful fireworks they had ever seen in their lives.
