Chapter 73 Rescue Mission
Therefore, although a large number of frontline combat personnel left, the ship's combat capability was still able to maintain its original state for a short period of time.
However, in this case, after the rescue is completed, no matter how many people are left on the other ship, that ship will definitely be abandoned.
Otherwise, when returning to port, facing those relentless, high-frequency battles again, the frontline combat personnel scattered across the two ships would certainly not be able to hold on.
After everyone agreed to carry out the rescue plan, even though Dong Qi was in the cabin, he could feel the ship suddenly shaking.
The reason for the ship's shaking was not an attack by those mutated marine creatures, but rather caused by the high-frequency firing of missiles from inside the ship.
Because the distance between the two ships was constantly decreasing, not long after the missiles were launched, Dong Qi saw through the window that a large number of missiles went directly into the water.
Upon seeing this scene, Dong Qi subconsciously opened the data panel in his mind, only to find that the number in the energy value column had exceeded one thousand, which met the minimum requirement for exchanging for a low-level magic weapon.
Just as Dong Qi was feeling happy because he had accumulated enough energy, he suddenly heard a knock on the door. When he opened the door, he found that Shao Kai had once again brought a lot of people to his door.
Just as Dong Qi thought that the same thing had happened again, he heard Shao Kai say to him in a hurried tone: "The situation is urgent. Don't ask anything else. Come with me now."
After speaking, Shao Kai did not wait for Dong Qi's reply and directly knocked on the door of a cabin along the passage.
When Dong Qi saw that Shao Kai had said the same thing to the other person, he knew that Shao Kai hadn't come here specifically to see him, but rather that he had encountered a genuine emergency.
Thinking of this, Dong Qi subconsciously had a thought, and at the same time, the instrument lights on the control panel of his natal car in the equipment warehouse also lit up instantly. At this moment, the vehicle's engine had already started running at a low frequency, and the vehicle was ready to start at any time.
Dong Qi followed Shao Kai and his group to the armory at the bottom of the ship's hold.
The fully automatic rifle, which originally required a considerable amount of merit points to exchange for, is now available to everyone. In addition to being equipped with a belt of ammunition that holds twelve magazines, everyone is also provided with a pistol.
However, the pistol ammunition provided was only a full magazine; no extra pistol ammunition was issued.
After everyone had received their equipment, Shao Kai led the group away to the deck to make room for the others who were receiving their equipment.
When everyone arrived on the deck, they found it already filled with fully armed combat personnel.
The detailed plan for this operation has been distributed to all squad leaders. Because the situation is urgent, there is no traditional long pre-battle declaration.
Instead, the captains of their respective squads quietly explained to their team members the specific details of their mission in this operation.
Shao Kai's team, including himself, consisted of twelve people. In this mission, they were responsible for a combat area of only about fifty meters long on the deck. The mission requirement was to block and kill any mutated marine creatures that tried to board the deck within three hours.
The battle against those mutated marine creatures, although fought with firearms, was still a high-intensity engagement.
For professional soldiers, three hours of high-intensity combat might not be too much of a burden.
At this time, those responsible for defending the deck were all non-professional soldiers, let alone able to hold out for a longer period of time.
In reality, without the correct shooting posture, unless one's physical abilities far exceed those of an average person, after firing all the bullets in thirteen magazines, it is estimated that one's arms will be unable to exert any strength for the next three days.
Therefore, assigning non-combat personnel like Dong Qi to guard the deck was only a last resort.
Of course, there are still some professional soldiers on board who haven't gone over yet, but these professionals are responsible for the safety of the cabins. In case the deck area is lost, they can hold out until the personnel who went out on missions return.
As the two ships drew closer, Dong Qi realized that the boarding action on the Great Xia side was not the kind of direct jumping that was depicted in the movies.
Instead, one side of the warship's hull is actually an electric magnet. Normally, it looks like ordinary steel, but once it is electrified, it becomes a magnet and can firmly attract the opponent's hull.
However, the two ships are at different heights on the water, and even though the hulls are close together, there is still a height difference between the decks.
Fortunately, the deck of the warship where Dong Qi and his men were located was higher than the deck of the enemy ship, so although this difference in elevation would have some impact on the subsequent evacuation.
However, in the early battles for control of the deck area, situations may arise where the enemy is on higher ground and attacks from a lower ground.
As the saying goes, "The high-level player beats the low-level player, and the low-level player beats the idiot
The frontline combat personnel easily cleared out the mutated marine life near the enemy's deck and then quickly carried out the rescue mission as planned.
Meanwhile, Dong Qi and his crew, who were guarding the deck, also spotted the mutated marine creatures climbing up the hull of the ship.
With the first shot fired by an unknown person, everyone quickly emptied the magazines of their weapons without hesitation.
With a series of hollow sounds, most people finally realized that their shooting had been impulsive and they had wasted a lot of bullets.
Although their respective captains had told them before the battle that they should not hold down the trigger and fire continuously, but should instead fire slowly in bursts.
However, most of the people who were participating in actual combat for the first time couldn't help but become somewhat impulsive when they saw the battlefield covered in blood.
Perhaps only by participating in more battles and truly adapting to the battlefield can one become as adept as a veteran in dealing with such situations.
Shao Kai and the other squad leaders did not participate in the battle directly, but stood to the side and rear of their respective squads.
They did this not out of fear, but to be prepared so that if anything unexpected happened, they could be the first to spot it and take immediate action.
Fortunately, most of the people present, although it was their first time participating in actual combat, were military logistics personnel who had participated in similar training before.
Although I was a little impulsive during my first real-world experience, I quickly calmed down and adjusted my mindset.
Perhaps the previous missile attacks had frightened those giant marine creatures, so even after the rescue team completed their mission, the mutated marine creatures did not break through and occupy the deck defended by Dong Qi and his non-combat personnel.
The rescue mission involved more than 3,000 people. Although more than 1,000 people were brought back after the mission, the casualty rate during the mission was nearly one-third.
No one expected that when more than 3,000 people were sent to carry out the mission, the total number of people, including those rescued, would still be more than 3,000 after the mission was completed.
