The Road to Slaying God

After getting on the boat, the three finally understood why the general asked them if they had ever been on a boat.

For several days, the wind and waves were extremely strong. Although the tanker was fully loaded with crude oil, the wind and waves did not matter to the sailors. However, for Zhang Yang and others who had never been on a sea-going ship, it was simply torture.

After three consecutive days of wind and waves, the three of them had vomited all over their faces and could hardly eat anything.

In this environment, there was no thought at all. However, in the past few days, Zhang Yang never said a word and frowned. No one knew what he was thinking. Only when he was vomiting, Aze and Liu Biao You will find that Zhang Yang is like a transparent person who only eats and sleeps. The sailors on the ship regard him as a monster.

It wasn't until the fourth day that the wind and waves calmed down. The wind was calm, the sea was as calm as scales, and fish jumped out of the water from time to time. Only then did the three of them dare to step onto the deck.

"It's finally quiet!" Zhang Yang stretched his limbs and stretched.

Aze and Liu Biao were relieved when they saw Zhang Yang's relaxed brows. They had always been a little worried about Zhang Yang. Obviously, this incident had a big impact on Zhang Yang.

After the three people walked around the ship, they suddenly realized that something was wrong. The originally cheerful group of sailors became serious, and the captain stayed in the cab all the time, his eyes fixed on the radar, and his eyes on the sea from time to time. When patrolling, even when eating, he is still in the cab.

The atmosphere seemed very depressing and heavy.

The captain's surname is Wu and his given name is Dahai. He is a big man from Shandong. He is in his fifties, tall and powerful, with a dark face. He is very kind. The eleven sailors on this tanker all respect him very much. He is very authoritative on this ship. .

"Uncle Wu, why are you so relaxed when there are storms and then become nervous when the waves are calm? Is there any problem?" Zhang Yang quickly discovered something was wrong and climbed into the cab and asked.

"This place is close to the waters of Somalia, we must be careful." Uncle Wu no longer had the humor at the beginning, and had a serious expression on his face.

"Isn't there a warship escort? By the way, when will we rendezvous with the warship?" Zhang Yang couldn't help but be stunned. He remembered that the Chinese government sent a very powerful ocean-going fleet to escort the Somali waters. Since then, he has hardly heard anything. There was news about a Chinese ocean-going vessel being hijacked in Somalia.

"Haha, the warship has already met us, right in front." The captain turned on the radar, and a ship was displayed on the radar. Zhang Yang opened his eyes and looked, and sure enough, between the blue sky and white clouds, there was a silver-white ship. Driving on the sea, because the distance was too far and there was an oil tanker blocking their view, they didn't notice it at first.

"Since there is a warship escort, why are you still so nervous?" Zhang Yang asked puzzledly.

"Haha, warships mainly serve as a deterrent and strike. In peacetime, we still have to be careful on our own and try not to let unfamiliar ships approach. Under normal circumstances, pirate speedboats are not conducive to driving in bad weather. Therefore, the weather The worse it gets, the greater our security. If the weather is calm like now, pirates will act aggressively." The captain said with a wry smile.

"Aren't they afraid of warships?" Zhang Yang couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't expect the pirates to be so bold.

"I'm afraid, but even if there is a warship escort, if they seize the opportunity, they will still take action. Last year, a kidnapping occurred. A Saudi Arabian oil tanker was escorted by a US [***] ship. Passing through the Somali waters, right under the nose of the warship, one of the pirates' fishing boats dropped a speedboat and boarded the oil tanker at lightning speed. By the time the warship reacted, the pirates had taken control of the entire oil tanker..."

"Is it possible that such an advanced weapon system on a warship can't detect them?" Zhang Yang still couldn't understand that submachine guns and rocket launchers, which were almost primitive weapons compared to the cash weapon systems of warships, could fight against warships and rob them in plain sight. This was beyond his scope of thinking.

"Haha, this sea area is vast and there are countless fishing boats. When you pass by those fishing boats, those fishing boats may turn into pirates in an instant. It can be said that it is impossible to guard against them. Of course, we also have a way. If we move forward dozens of nautical miles, there will be pirates. The other two waiting cargo ships will rendezvous, and the warships will station marines on the ship. At that time, even if there are pirates, they are no match for professional soldiers, and they are incomparable in terms of psychological quality and weapons and equipment." The captain said very proudly.

"Oh...I see..." Zhang Yang finally understood why the captain was so nervous now. Although it was still a relatively safe sea area, he had to pay extra attention. If one end was hijacked, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Did they land in a helicopter?" Zhang Yang remembered that it was reported in the news.

"Well, there are many ways. Not every warship has a helicopter. They will decide according to the situation. If there is a helicopter, they will not be worried even if they don't station it. After all, the maneuverability of a helicopter The surname is very strong, and it is basically impossible for pirates to have the courage to approach a helicopter if they see it.”

…

Sure enough, within ten minutes, a helicopter hovered in the sky. All the sailors ran to the side of the ship and cheered. Six fully armed soldiers in Chinese Marine Corps uniforms climbed down from the ladder. He is an elite member of the army. His dark face, strong body and sharp eyes all show the demeanor of a modern Chinese soldier.

Zhang Yang could tell from the eyes of these sailors that they had deep respect for these soldiers.

It is difficult to experience this feeling in your own country. When you are in a foreign country, being protected by your own country's warships is a great honor and will generate a strong self-confidence.

Several crew members delivered flowers that had been prepared early to the hands of the soldiers, and the soldiers' faces were full of pride. Undoubtedly, being able to protect one's compatriots at sea tens of thousands of miles away from the motherland is also a supreme honor.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Yang Aze and Liu Biao were inexplicably moved. They also wanted to lay flowers for these soldiers. Unfortunately, the sailors seemed to have forgotten them... Finally, the welcome ceremony was over, and some sailors were in their places, and those The soldiers also became familiar with the environment and began to inspect some facilities on the ship.

"Are you Zhang Yang?" A soldier came over, first looked at Liu Biao and Aze, and finally, his eyes fell on Zhang Yang. This was the soldier with the highest rank among the six, and he should be the commander among the six. , he should be responsible for the safety of this ship.

"Yes..." Zhang Yang suddenly realized that he didn't know what to call him.

"For your safety, our commander requires you to take a warship." The soldier saluted. Obviously, he regarded Zhang Yang as a member of the army. The three of them now have dark skin and short hair. , all have a bit of the iron-blooded temperament of a soldier.

"Okay." When Zhang Yang heard the word "request", he already knew that he had no choice. Besides, he also wanted to see what one of the most advanced warships in China was like.

In this world, not every ordinary person has the opportunity to visit a warship.

"Brother Bing, hello. My name is Liu Biao. Everyone calls me Brother Biao. Of course, you don't have to call me Brother Biao. Just call me Xiao Liu. Come on, I admire you the most. Please sign your name for me... …”

Liu Biao took out a small notebook and a ballpoint pen from nowhere. He came over with a flattering smile and thrust the ballpoint pen into the soldier's hand.

"Ah... this... this..." The soldier suddenly turned red in the face. He was just an ordinary soldier, not a star. Now he was enjoying the treatment of a star, so naturally he felt a little uncomfortable.

"Come on, sign a few more, um... this page... um, and this page... Ha, Brother Bing's surname is Tu and his last name is Hong Gang! A good name, indeed a good name, um, this page I signed it too... Haha... That's enough, that's enough. Thank you so much. After I return to China, I'll treat you to drinking and prostitution. It's all mine..." Looking at the notebook full of names signed, Liu Biao smiled. I couldn’t close my mouth. The next time I return to City C, I will have capital to show off. ***, this is the name signed by the Chinese escort officers and soldiers!

The soldier was made red in the face by Liu Biao. He threw the pen to Liu Biao and ran away. He quickly ran to the bow of the ship to signal. The helicopter that was hovering in the sky in the distance slowly flew over and lowered its head. Soft ladder.

After Liu Biao and the soldier who signed the signature gave him a warm and forced bear hug, the three of them climbed into the helicopter one by one.

After getting on the helicopter, Zhang Yang discovered that the three ships, including warships, had become five. Another two freighters filled with containers had joined the fleet. The warships cleared the way at the front and lined up. It formed a straight line, which looked quite impressive from the air. The waves were divided into two huge silver lines... Several ships had red banners hanging on them, most of which were words of praise for the people's soldiers.

Many sailors stood on the side of the ship and waved at the helicopter.

Looking at the sailors waving enthusiastically, Zhang Yang stared blankly and suddenly felt countless emotions.

It is not easy to feel the power of a country in your own country. Only after going abroad can you truly feel the power of the motherland. A country that is bullied and a country that is not strong will have no dignity for its people.

At the same time, Zhang Yang also understood a truth: why can American citizens be respected wherever they go? Undoubtedly, this is a manifestation of the country's strength.

This is a very simple example. If an American dies in an accident in any country, he will always receive the most death compensation, and no matter where the American goes, he will also get the fastest visa. An American on the land of China , and even exceeds the level of freedom of a Chinese citizen.

This is the embodiment of strength, this is the symbol of strength!

When will China be able to gain the same respect from Americans around the world, then China will be truly powerful.

Looking at the five-star red flag fluttering in the wind on the ship, as well as the pairs of waving hands pointing directly at the turrets in the sky, Zhang Yang suddenly had a strong premonition that China's power has gradually become a reality. At least, China's warships have sailed We have reached waters that have never been reached in history!

The Chinese people are also proud of their soldiers, proud of them!

China will be stronger than at any time in history
