Chapter 623 Chapter 623 does not exist

The boats gathered to rescue the five pilots finally began to care about the life and death of Cyric's officers and soldiers floating on the water. This is definitely good news for them.

Ropes were dropped one by one, and the captives were pulled aboard.After they took off their clothes and confirmed that they were not carrying any weapons, they were imprisoned in an extra watertight cabin.

A group of people crowded together, as if they were pigs.As humiliating as it may seem, it's better than staying in the water.

The person guarding them gave a detailed introduction to the purpose of the valves in the watertight cabin before going out. He was very polite and professional.

All the Cyric captives inside were well aware that if they unscrewed these valves, they would allow water to flood into the ship, which would cause the ship to roll.

But they also knew that if they did this, the cabin they were in would soon be filled with sea water, and they had no way to let the big brother who was guarding outside the hatch open the hatch and let them out.

Therefore, in order to prevent everyone from being soaked in water and turning into canned food again, the officers in Cyric's prisoner very consciously drove the men who were close to these valves to an absolutely safe corner.

In this way, in fact, many of the Cyric captives who fell into the water this time were saved.According to subsequent statistics, although the best rescue time was missed, at least 1000 people became survivors of Cyric's sneak attack fleet.

As for how the remaining more than [-] Cyric and Goblin sailors disappeared, no one really cares.

This is war and there will be no mercy.

"It really makes people speechless. The navy actually said that they don't know what ship rescued the five pilots?" Xiao Yun looked at the liaison officer who came to send the news and several officers of the flight unit, a little dumbfounded.

"Yes, that ship is not in our sequence, nor is it a civilian ship, so we don't know the existence of that ship." The liaison officer spread his hands and said truthfully.

Xiao Yun also knew that there were some planes in their air force that "didn't exist". At least he didn't know what those planes looked like or what their functions were.

But is it really okay for such absurd things to happen?A non-existent ship rescued his pilot?How to write this report?
"The telegram sent by the other party was sent directly to the shipyard." The liaison officer had to explain again.

The docks used to build submarines are classified, so theoretically they don't exist.The non-existent shipyard notified the shipyard and told the relevant person in charge of the shipyard that a non-existent ship rescued 5 pilots...

And at this time, it seems that it is not the time to care about this non-existent ship: after hearing that the warships of the sneak attack fleet were wiped out, the navy's main fleet immediately went north without looking back.

As for the matter of rescuing Cyric's captives, it was all left to Long Island's naval security forces and the "powerful air force" that has now proven itself.

Because the performance of the aircraft has been pushed to a sufficient height, no one doubts the Air Force's ability to fight against the sea.

The sinking of 45 enemy ships is a good example. With such a force guarding Long Island, Bernard expressed that he was very relieved.

In fact, the commander-in-chief of the navy no longer cares about the safety of Dongwan Port and Linshui Port, because he knows that the air force there is stronger and more numerous.

So he went north this time with a very clear purpose.It was to block Beiyuan City, or even the Mirage Kingdom, in order to seek a decisive battle with the main force of the Mirage Kingdom's navy.

Tang Mo was a witness and participant of the entire war.He finally realized the difficulty of maintaining a maritime hegemony, and how terrifying it is.

No matter how many warships and aircraft you have, it is wishful thinking to completely protect countless sea routes.

Construction is always more difficult than destruction. Maintaining these routes requires a large number of escort fleets, strong national power and the determination and perseverance of the ruler.

But if you want to destroy or delay these transportation lines, it is much simpler and easier: you only need a mobile and flexible fleet, or some elusive submarines are enough.

Fortunately, Cyric did not have the same skills, otherwise it would not be so easy for Tang Mo to win the battle in front of him.

Just dozens of backward, tattered battleships with low speed and weak firepower can contain the powerful Datang main fleet and waste more than half a month. It turned upside down.

After more than an hour, the submarine, which could only communicate one-way because of the need for confidentiality, finally sent back another telegram, which reported the status of the pilot in detail.

It was only at this time that Xiao Yun finally knew that one of his pilots was killed in battle, and the remaining four pilots were safe and sound.

This made him breathe a sigh of relief: the loss of sacrificing a pilot is still tolerable, after all, an accident at this time may also lose a pilot.

So the only thing left is to wait, but this time everyone is more at ease waiting, it's just a relaxed wait.

The speed of the submarine was no match for the battleship, and the first to return were the two Weigang-class cruisers that arrived in the sea area after dark at night.

Although the former Wolf-class cruiser, which was renamed the Weigang-class, was built earlier, its technology is still very advanced. At least in terms of speed, it is still not outdated.

Although the shipyard of the Datang Group has begun to build new cruisers with more advanced technology, the Weigang-class cruisers are still the backbone of the Datang Navy in the short term.

Afterwards, the Fengshun class destroyers with new technology and good condition returned. These gadgets gave up firepower and protection in order to build a large number of them. They are good at patrolling, searching and rescue.

These returning ships more or less rescued some of Cyric's captives, and then arrived at the port with slow-moving, old-fashioned ironclad ships that had begun to be phased out in large numbers.

If they weren't about to be eliminated, they wouldn't be reduced to doing odd jobs near Long Island.These battleships are no longer suitable for following the fleet, so they can only wander around the island in a senile manner, using their residual heat.

The non-existent ship that really played a role and saved people is still floating in the sea at this moment.

There is no way, in order to increase the underwater speed to some extent, the Datang submarine designed by copying the U-boat does not even have a surface speed of 20 knots.

Of course, if you dive fully into the water, the speed of this thing is only a pitiful less than 7 knots-converted into kilometers, it is only about 12 kilometers.

In fact, the underwater speed of this experimental submarine could not reach 7 knots, so the speed that should have been close to 13 kilometers per hour was approximately equal to 12 kilometers per hour.

As for the speed on the water surface, the speed of the submarine was only comparable to that of an old ironclad ship. In order to keep it secret, it took an inaccessible route and made a large circle, so it finally arrived at the secret dock belonging to the submarine.

So, in the afternoon of the second day, just before dinner, the four rescued pilots stood in front of Xiao Yun.

As a result, their appearance only made Xiao Yun happy for a few seconds.The subsequent conversation between them made Xiao Yun angry.

"What ship were you rescued by?" At the beginning, Xiao Yun was just curious, so he asked casually, but things started to develop in an embarrassing direction.

"I'm sorry, sir. We can't say anything." The captain replied with some helplessness.

This is really not something he can decide, because after landing, several officers from the intelligence department standing on the pier showed the pilots their certificates.

The dragon emblem on the certificate and the military ranks below, including the units they belong to and the professions these people are engaged in, all make people feel a chilling chill.

In fact, for any cases involving this group of people, the parties concerned can brag without being scared to pee their pants.

After these people explained their intentions and signed a non-disclosure agreement, they basically couldn't say anything.

For the few pilots, they could be sent back to Dragon Island directly by the angels, or they could swim back by themselves, or they could subdue a whale and step on each other's back...

In short, they can come back any way they want, except that they can't come back when they encounter a ship that doesn't exist.

They have never seen a cabin full of pipes, nor have they seen a command room full of instruments and lights, and naturally they have never seen a strange ship emerging from the water.

Nothing exists, nothing can be said...

"Then how should I write my report?" Xiao Yun stared angrily at his subordinates, feeling that his subordinates had betrayed him.

The captain was also depressed, because he couldn't mention any details to his superior at this moment, and even had to lie: "We were rescued by a fishing boat."

"Which one?" Xiao Yun laughed angrily.

"The Finkel." The captain continued to answer without blushing.

"The Finkel?" Of course Xiao Yun didn't know what the Finkel was, and he wasn't in charge of Dragon Island's ship dispatch either.

"Yes, there will be records from the Navy, Finkel." The captain nodded with certainty.He even began to hypnotize himself. The submarine that rescued them was actually called the Finkel.

"..." Xiao Yun looked at the electromechanicalist standing on the other side speechlessly.

The electromechanical officer nodded, with a confident look on his face: "That's right! Sir!"

Xiao Yun looked at the navigator and the bombardier again.

"The Finkel! A very beautiful fishing boat, sir." The two men answered quickly, and even described the appearance of the fishing boat, as if they had really seen such a boat.
-
There are two updates today, and they will be updated tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
