1801 Philippine warships come to trouble
"Director, there will be no accidents when we return to China this time? This aircraft carrier has been waiting for many years, and everything is ready in the country, so I owe this shell. "A middle-aged man stood on the command tower of the aircraft carrier and watched several small tugboats in front tow huge steel monsters slowly moving forward on the sea. There were also three tugboats behind them. There were two on both sides of the aircraft carrier. They each used to control the aircraft carrier to move forward on the sea. They asked the old man with a serious face beside him.
Tens of thousands of tons of steel monsters are to be dragged over two thousand kilometers on the sea!
Looking at the empty sea in the distance, the middle-aged man looked worried.
This is related to whether the Republic can have a deep blue navy, and relying solely on missile battleships is not enough.
Missile battleships cooperate with aircraft carriers are the most powerful.
"Don't worry, we have been preparing for this aircraft carrier for so many years, and we will never allow any mistakes." The director took a deep breath before answering.
Obviously, he had no confidence in what he said.
"After all, this aircraft carrier is only from the Ninth Academy, and the country cannot come forward at all!" said the middle-aged man frowned.
The distance from entering the South China Sea from here is not too far, but when taking the middle route, you may encounter Philippine warship intercept, or even Nguyen Zhixiong's warship intercept.
The Americans could not allow the huge aircraft carrier shell to be towed back, after all, China's missile battleships are no longer confidential.
"Don't worry, this is the waters of Nippodosan near this place, and there will be no problems with their warships. The most difficult thing is to enter the waters near the Philippines in front. This aircraft carrier has no power system and is all relying on several tugboats. Once affected, the steel cable will be broken, which is the most dangerous..." The Glasses God is serious.
Looking at the staff members observing on the front deck, deep in their eyes, there was a deep worry.
Such a situation is indeed too dangerous for them.
This is not the case when a large warship is launched, just drag the warship out, and then moored on the outfit dock. Sometimes it is stormy at sea, which makes it difficult for the towed tug in front to control the direction of its advance. If any steel cable dragging an aircraft carrier has problems, it will cause problems in the entire towing project.
There is no experience in such dragging in China, and this time it is also the key to accumulating experience.
At a speed of less than 10 nautical miles per hour, it passes through the South China Sea from the Nipudosan Sea, then enters the East China Sea, and then enters the Yellow Sea, and then reaches the Bohai Bay. The entire voyage is too long. Starting from here and reaching the end point, the journey is more than 0 kilometers. The speed of these tugboats tow forward is only about 10 kilometers per hour at the fastest, without any delay, and without encountering storms, it also takes an hour, sleeplessness, and more than 30 days.
The domestic requirement is to tow the boat into the port within two months.
There are often storms on the sea, not to mention that it is summer now and there are many storms on the sea. Once these situations occur, the towboat may be overturned by the huge inertia of the aircraft carrier.
An old 53 frigate from China, with a six-star red flag hanging on the top of the mast, sailing slowly hundreds of meters away from the aircraft carrier. From time to time, Nipponan soldiers waved their hands on the deck.
"In the waters here, we will send warships to guard. Indonesia is too far away, and the Philippine navy is also far away, but with the support of the United States, it is likely to intercept it. In addition, it is Ruan Zhixiong's navy." In the military building of the Ministry of Education Youth City, a group of people are surrounding the huge map of the South China Sea area with a dotted line on it, which is the way back to the Ulyanovsk.
Leaving from the port, he went straight along the coastline not far from the coastline, to the sea area of Cambodia Province in southern Vietnam, which had been occupied by Zhiqingcheng for more than ten years, and then turned upwards into the South China Sea. Nguyen Chi-xiong did not have large warships, but there were a large number of gunboats and torpedo boats.
"Ruan Zhixiong will not turn against us. Once he develops with us, his maritime power will be lost too much and he will be attacked by other warlords in the north. The most important thing is the Philippine navy. They have always wanted to buy second-hand warships from the United States to replace their Cannon-class frigates and the light frigates sold to them when the British left Hong Kong some time ago..." Zhao Zhicheng, the Minister of Navy of Nipponsan, shook his head and said.
They know the maritime power of the surrounding countries better than anyone else.
If war begins, it will be difficult for all warships in Southeast Asia to kill Nippodosan, who has four Ticonderoga-class cruisers and seven Soviet nuclear submarines of various types.
"Where is the Fulongzhi number?" Liu Yijiu asked.
Such a big noise cannot be unknown to Americans.
Moreover, when the Ticonderoga class cruiser was leased to Nippodosan, many weapons and equipment were removed, almost equivalent to a warship shell. The main weapon that can be used was the naval gun. However, this is enough, it is strong enough to block the sea area of this generation.
"There will be no problem with the sea area near the Nansha Islands." Zhao Zhicheng said confidently, "The earliest ship 531 has been escorting."
This made Liu Yijiu feel a little relieved.
This thing is missing in China now. After the aircraft carrier returns to China, basically the domestic military system has already been alive, and the rest only takes time to accumulate.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be so nervous.
Although the 00,000-ton 055 Drive has not been tested in the sea, there are many problems, but with the prototype, there are no worries about the inability to improve it.
The transformation of tens of thousands of tons of battleships has allowed domestic naval equipment manufacturing units to accumulate rich experience in the modification and manufacturing of large warships. When the Ulyanovsk returned to China, it still practiced the domestic naval equipment manufacturing system. Many parts have even been manufactured before. When they returned, they need to be modified and then verify whether there is any problem with the design.
Under Liu Yijiu's interference, the design was greatly improved compared with the original Soviet design. In particular, the structure of the aircraft carrier bridge command tower was simplified a lot, and some stealth designs were even carried out. China had never built an aircraft carrier, and the previous aircraft carrier project was stopped within a few years of its start. However, a large number of technicians from the Ukrainian Black Sea Shipyard joined, and a large number of Ulyanovsk's design materials and technical drawings were transported back, and then they were continuously digested and improved...
"Your Excellency, the Nippona aircraft carrier has started to move. I don't know where the destination is, but it is very likely China." At the White House, most of the energy has been put on there these days because of the outbreak of the Syrian civil war.
Because the CIA has not received any news about the Syrian civil war, everyone is diligent in the current situation. After discovering that the shell of Nippona's aircraft carrier, which has not been moving, naturally did not dare to neglect and report to the president.
"That aircraft carrier shell? What are the Chinese going to do?" Klington rubbed his head, "Is their domestic shipbreaking yard ready to dismantle the aircraft carrier?"
At this time, the president had forgotten the Chinese missile battleship full of weapons systems.
Lawn Phillips was a little stunned. He wanted to remind the president, but in the end he didn't say anything.
When he turned around and was about to go out, Klington patted his dizzy head, "What did you say? The shell of the Soviet nuclear-powered aircraft carrier purchased by Nipponsan?"
"Yes!" the intelligence chief sighed, and the president finally remembered.
"We must find a way to stop it!" Klington now wishes to declare war on China directly, nipping China's threat to the United States in the cradle. The second island chain used to defend and block China has not been built yet. Nippodosan, who was originally expected, has angered the top leaders of the United States because of his unclear relationship with the Black Guard. Now a plan to attack the Black Guard around the world has begun to be launched, and Nippodosan is also on the list that the United States must remove. "China has the ability to transform battleships into arsenal ships, and they have now begun to challenge the aircraft carriers! Once they have aircraft carriers, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Can we think too much?" The intelligence director had a headache.
At present, the Russians are no longer able to do it, and Europe has always followed the United States.
The only enemy that can become the United States is China. Of course, even if China does not have the strength and ambitions, in order to maintain its current world leader, the United States will exaggerate China into a country with a powerful threat.
Especially the country's economic growth rate is too scary.
China has developed, their population is too large...
"Call them for a meeting." Clinton looked gloomy.
This aircraft carrier was originally purchased by Nipudosan from Ukraine. In order to make Nipudosan disgusted, the United States not only agreed, but even half-loaned and half-given to Nipudosan for four of them to Nipudosan.
Unexpectedly, he shot himself in the foot.
You should know that the United States has never had a precedent for selling large warships before. Lease is not for sale, but it is not easy to get back in Nipponsan's hands.
It was originally intended to hold China back and let China build their old warships from the fifties and sixties to make their originally small military spending fall on old preparations.
The plan is indeed good, China has been building their old Class 051 destroyers.
As a result, Nipponan became stronger, but China secretly created such a warship.
"Their 10,000-ton large-scale drive will also be undergoing sea trials. Once they have an aircraft carrier, China will soon have a deep blue navy. It is very easy to break through our second island chain and enter the Pacific Ocean!" Almost everyone thinks this is the case.
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs protested to the Chinese government, and their crazy military expansion and preparations for war have affected the security of the Asia-Pacific region!"
"Wouldn't they want to buy more advanced warships from us? Let them prevent this aircraft carrier from falling into China..."
"In addition, prepare Taiwan's navy. Once mainland China has an aircraft carrier, it will pose a greater threat to them. Don't they want to build a larger warship by themselves? This aircraft carrier shell can be snatched and kept for their own transformation..."
The meeting soon came to an end.
With the president's approval of various orders to prevent China from obtaining aircraft carriers, U.S. diplomats first condemned China and Nipponsan's aircraft carrier purchase and sale agreement at a press conference that it would undermine the military balance in the region, stimulate an arms race, and threaten world peace and security.
The Chinese diplomatic department was angered by the Americans' accusations that made things happen out of nothing. China had no such plan and no such business. It also accused the Americans of this in order to make the world focus on China again and break the dirt from nothing to China. It made a clear statement that we will not take the blame.
For a moment, both parties began to quarrel.
Russia is constantly fanning the flames, hoping that China will work with the United States, and said that they can first sell advanced weapons and equipment to China to enhance China's national defense strength.
Liu Yijiu did not expect that this was not clear about the aircraft carrier, and the aircraft carrier was currently towed by a towboat with the Soviet flag. Nipponan signed an agreement with the Hong Kong company, and the Hong Kong company signed an agreement with the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union had an agreement with the Ninth Court.
It is not easy to be sorted out in all kinds of things.
The aircraft carrier gradually left the Nipponsan Sea and entered the South China Sea. The warships from the South China Sea Fleet monitored the movement of the aircraft carrier's shell from afar. They did not know that it belonged to China, after all, the Soviet flag was hung on it.
Without warships, China's warships did not follow too much. Nippodosan's frigate had returned, and only a few tugboats were towing the aircraft carrier slowly heading towards the north.
It is not a busy route 100 nautical miles west of the Nansha Islands. Several tugboats are still dragging huge steel monsters and gradually moving on the sea. The thick steel cable behind the tugboat is stretched straight, and even breaks accidentally.
This area is the most dangerous area. The Philippines' dog-legged one is obviously preparing to cause trouble. Their largest Cannon-class frigate left the military port with two of the most advanced Jacinto-class light frigates that had just been obtained and came towards this area. Even the Ruan Zhixiong troops to the west sent two gunboats to come here.
"Director, the Philippine warship!" Life on the ship is very boring. The people above basically change shifts and are moving forward 24 hours a day. It would have been safer to enter China's own waters, but I never expected that the Filipino warships would appear.
Chapter completed!
