Girls und War

However, now that the flower area has withstood this wave, the vision points on both sides are tied.

Although the Sheng Qilin suffered a serious blow this time, it was fortunate that the hull was still there and it had not sunk.

In this case, with a little repair, the situation can still be under control.

Soon after, the fleet's supply ship arrived near the Holy Qilin from not far away and pulled her away from the dangerous sea.

The carrier battle group escorted their flagship from a distance and escorted her to a reef island. Then the supply ship began repair work on the aircraft carrier.

The Sea Cat was escorting the Holy Kirin. Xia Shu later saw traces of burning on the hull of the Sea Cat, and it seemed that it had also experienced an air raid from the Eagle Zone.

Fortunately, Huaqu responded promptly this time. Although some ships were damaged, no warship was sunk.

Then, the more difficult naval battle will continue.

1018. Spare tire becomes regular

More than ten hours have passed since the Sheng Qilin aircraft carrier was attacked by missiles.

The overnight repairs by the supply ship and damage control team have ensured the safety of the aircraft carrier.

At this point, the hull was no longer leaking water, and the internal pipes had been properly repaired.

However, several large holes on the deck have not been repaired yet.

Xia Shu looked at the three deep pits with a diameter of five or six meters under the light, and felt a chill in his heart.

We were really lucky this time, the warhead did not hit the island.

Xia Shu turned his head and looked at the observation floor where he was.

If this bomb hits the island, the command of the entire fleet will probably be destroyed in an instant.

Think about World War II, there was such a precedent.

The flagship's island was hit by a shell, and all the senior officers on the bridge were killed instantly.

The blow to the entire fleet's psychology and combat capabilities was not small.

It is very likely that the entire battle will be lost.

However, although the fleet command in the flower district has not been affected, the damage to the deck is indeed a very problematic issue.

The damage to the planes in the hangar is not a big deal, as they have many spare planes, so it's not a big problem.

However, if the deck is damaged like this, it will be difficult to use it again without major repairs.

This place is far away from the nearest port, and it will definitely take a month to go back and forth, including the maintenance time.

After a month, the daylily will be cold, so what's the point of fighting?

So Yanjie now gave a strict order that the supply ship must repair the deck here.

We don't need to be completely lossless, but at least we need to be able to take off and land fighter jets on a single line.

Otherwise, Huaqu’s battle in the large oil field area would be in jeopardy.

During this period of maintenance, the Seacat naturally assumed the responsibility of a backup aircraft carrier.

Their decks are decent enough, and the elevators can barely be used to take off and land fighter jets.

As long as the types of aircraft in the hangars of the two aircraft carriers are slightly replaced, the combat impact should not be significant.

However, during the period of maintenance, the hull of the Holy Qilin could not move.

So they could only stay where they were, serving as a fixed military base, and conduct remote command of naval battles.

Watching the supply ship's crane swaying side to side, moving the planes on the two aircraft carriers, Yanjie sighed and said, "I'm really unlucky this time. I don't know how I got discovered by the Eagle Zone. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. Please forgive me..."

Yanjie's words were naturally directed at Xia Shu.

Hearing this, Xia Shu could only offer consolation, "I think you handled it well. In that situation, I thought I was done for."

Yanjie gave another wry smile upon hearing this, and then asked, "Are you really not going back to the Sea Cat? You might very well suffer a second blow here."

Xia Shu thought about it and shook his head.

As the commander of the special forces, it is actually the same wherever she is.

As for Yanjie, Xia Shu was afraid that something might happen to them again, so he stayed here, maybe he could help when the time comes.

As for the battle in the South Seas, the Eagle District seemed to have focused all its attention on the naval battle here, so the search for the special forces team was relaxed.

The battle there was going smoothly, so Xia Shu didn't issue too many orders. He simply let the special forces make their own battlefield decisions with the assistance of the Navy.

Thinking of this, Xia Shu turned to look at the members of the special operations staff team, and his eyes were unconsciously attracted by the bandage on Xiaobai's head.

When the missile bombing occurred, the members of the staff group were holding a combat meeting in the conference room. After the deck was bombed, they immediately fell to the ground.

It was at that moment that Xiaobai's forehead hit the corner of the table, leaving a big cut.

But now it seems that she has recovered quite a bit. Although she bled a little, she still looks healthy.

Xiaobai was communicating with the nameless team. Seeing Xia Shu staring at him, he thought there was something wrong with his wound.

So he reached out and touched his head, then looked at his palm.

Seeing no change above his head, Xiaobai looked at Xia Shu with a suspicious expression again.

Xia Shu was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled gently, looked at Xiaobai and shook his head, signaling her not to think too much.

Xiaobai's face was full of questions, and he continued to busy himself with his own things.

Then Xia Shu turned around and looked at the supply ship below with Yanjie.

In the darkness of the night, the bright searchlights illuminated the deck as bright as day.

Soon someone started cursing from below, "This is going to blind my eyes! Lock one up! Lock one up!"

So one of the lights on top of the supply boat was turned off.

But at this time, the light on the deck was a little dim.

Then someone else cursed, "How can you do things like this when you light a lamp like this? Turn on another one! Turn on another one!"

Then both sides started cursing loudly, and it felt like the hot water pipes and cold water pipes in a bathhouse, difficult to reconcile.

However, Kenji and Natsuki on the bridge didn't find it funny at all.

Because the sea breeze gradually became stronger, and there was a hint of fishy smell in the dampness, which meant that a storm was about to come.

They have to hurry.

-

The weather at sea is like a lover's face, changing at any time.

It was a clear night just now, but not long after, the entire sea was covered by heavy rain.

At this time, there is no need to discuss the issue of bright or dim lights. Anyway, within the field of vision, there is heavy rain and visibility is no more than 20 meters.

However, even in such stormy weather, the girls did not stop working.

The tools are afraid of water, so they do it themselves.

Each of them wore a raincoat and used a traffic stick to direct the crane to lift the helicopter. After placing it on the deck, a tractor then moved the helicopter to the lifting platform and slowly transported it into the hangar.

With such heavy rain, even with tarpaulin, water seepage is inevitable during transportation by plane.

Therefore, after the aircraft is put into storage, it must be wiped carefully to prevent water stains on the steel plate and cause oxidation reactions.

Xia Shu saw that several girls were still driving the car and using quick-setting materials to repair the holes on the deck, and he admired their dedication in his heart.

Thinking about the upcoming battle, Xia Shu couldn't help but ask Yanjie, "How long will it take to repair the deck? Can it catch up with the next battle?"

Yanjie thought for a moment, then replied with a smile, "For these three holes, if we make the first two into interlayers to resist pressure, I think they'll be enough. Anyway, we can use them for now and do a major overhaul after the battle. Based on this efficiency, it should be done within three days. So during these three days, you'll have to rely on your Sea Cat to carry out air defense operations. Is that okay?"

After listening to Yanjie's words, Xia Shu could only smile bitterly, because she could hear the forced smile in Yanjie's tone.

But what can they do?

Now it seems that this is the only effective way.

1019. Adding insult to injury

The rain kept falling, getting heavier and heavier.

Occasionally, thunder flashed in the sky, and the waves gradually became more violent.

Although the current supply ship has fixed the two aircraft carriers, the three work platforms have formed an ultra-large offshore structure - the displacement of nearly 200,000 tons makes the hull as stable as Mount Tai, and it remains motionless even after experiencing wind and waves.

However, the fleet officers were still worried that the plane would slide into the sea under the influence of the storm, so they suspended the transfer of the plane and asked the girls to return to the dormitory to rest early.

At this time, on the ship's island, a group of officers were still busy. Seeing Yanjie still looking at the nautical chart, the captain of the Sheng Qilin said flatteringly, "Lieutenant General, it's late. Why don't you go back and rest? I'm enough here."

Upon hearing this, Yanjie said without even looking up, "Just go about your business. Don't worry about me. I'll go to bed soon."

Upon hearing this, the rear admiral hesitantly said, "This..." and then looked at Xia Shu beside him, as if wanting her to give him some words of comfort.

Xia Shu looked at Yanjie's deputy officer, who seemed not to want to participate in this topic.

Yanjie's deputy officer looked at Yanjie, thought for a moment, and finally gave the captain's wife a look, asking her to stop talking.

Seeing this, the captain could only nod and say, "Then you are busy."

Then he went back to his post and continued to arrange work matters on the aircraft carrier.

Natsuki originally wanted to leave the island and go to sleep, but seeing how hard Kenji was working, she felt embarrassed to leave on her own.

He stayed there and studied the maritime maps of the South China Sea region.

After a while, Yanjie seemed to have figured something out, so he stood up and let out a long sigh.

Xia Shu saw this from the side and asked, "Did you find anything good?"

Yanjie smiled and replied to her, "We have roughly predicted the Eagle Zone aircraft carrier's operation area. Next, we can prepare for a counterattack."

After hearing this, Xia Shu felt relieved.

However, up to now, they still don’t know how many Eagle Zone aircraft carriers have been dispatched.

Xia Shu estimated that it was not that simple.

She was about to ask a few more questions when she suddenly heard a commotion coming from the communications team.

The two of them immediately stopped talking and looked over there.

The head of the communications team came to the captain in a panic and reported in a serious tone, "News from the field: two sentries on board were attacked and killed, and a group of people have infiltrated the interior of the aircraft carrier!"

As soon as the news came out, there was an uproar on the island and the officers immediately looked nervous.

The captain immediately shouted, "Don't panic! Follow the emergency plan! Sound the alarm! Move quickly!"

So the next second, a shrill alarm sounded on the aircraft carrier.

At this time, the girls in the dormitory were about to go to bed. When they heard the alarm, they immediately put on their clothes again and huddled in the corner.

However, the girls' prediction was obviously wrong, and the alarm did not come from an air raid.

The radio quickly reported to the entire ship, "Attention all personnel! Unidentified personnel have appeared on the Holy Qilin. All units, please immediately open the weapons depot and organize area defense! I repeat! Unidentified personnel have appeared on the Holy Qilin. All units, please immediately open the weapons depot and organize area defense!"

After hearing the news from the island broadcast, the commanders of various areas on the aircraft carrier opened the armory and took out guns for self-defense as ordered.

The ship's guard team immediately arrived at the location where the sentry was attacked and began to search the surrounding area.

The most important areas of the aircraft carrier - the ammunition depot, engine and hangar - were also blocked by the combat team, and no personnel were allowed to enter or leave.

Everything was arranged in an orderly manner according to the emergency plan, as if the officers on the aircraft carrier had rehearsed it countless times.

Inside the island, the captain of the guard team quickly opened the armory and fully armed the team members.

Each officer in the command center also wore a bulletproof vest and was equipped with a pistol, ready to respond to emergencies at any time.

In this situation, Xia Shu didn't interrupt casually because she knew she couldn't help much.

At this time, it would be more efficient to let the aircraft carrier's own emergency response department arrange the operation.

After Yanjie put on her bulletproof vest, the guard captain immediately said to her, "Lieutenant General, there is a safe house over here. We will escort you there."

Yanjie looked up at her and said with a smile, "I've been an aircraft carrier captain for so many years, and I still don't know where is the safest place? No need to go, I'll just stay here and be with them."
