Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

Chapter 880: This antique can’t be so advanced, right?

Rope Island.

This famous island once experienced the baptism of blood and fire, but now it has returned to its peaceful appearance with sunny days and gentle breezes.

In a command room at the base, Miller, commander of the Seventh Fleet who had rushed over from Suzuru Port, was tasting a cup of not-so-good coffee.

Miller, Vice Admiral, commander-in-chief of the Seventh Fleet.

Miller usually spends most of his time in Suzuru Port, but he also visits other bases.

This time, because a fleet needed to be dispatched to carry out an escort mission, Miller came to Rope Island from Suzuru Port to prepare to mobilize troops and send ships.

The order came from the Pacific Command, and Miller only had to execute it.

His trusted subordinate, Major Reyes, was arranging everything for him, so he didn't need to give any orders personally.

Reyes arranged the list of ships to carry out the order and was about to give it to Miller for signature when he received a call from headquarters.

Reyes received the information and walked to the relaxed Miller with a serious expression. "General, you need to take a look at this. This is the news just received from the headquarters about the situation of the Gray Wolf Fleet that is cooperating with us this time. Someone has obtained the parameters of the mysterious battleship."

"Really?" Miller put down the metal coffee cup and said calmly, "Although the battleship is mysterious, it is already an antique from more than ten years ago. There is no point in knowing their data. It is a waste of taxpayers' money..."

Just as he said this, he glanced at a corner of the document in Reyes's hand, which recorded the endurance data of 055: 7000 nautical miles.

"This is impossible!" Miller's calm expression disappeared, and he said in disbelief, "How could this mysterious warship No. 055 have a range of more than a thousand nautical miles than our most advanced Ticond-class cruiser..."

"General, please continue reading!" Reyes said cautiously, "The headquarters ordered us to send Baby George, two more Ticonderoga-class cruisers, no less than eight frigates, and more submarines..."

The total number of miscellaneous ships in the order is almost half of the Seventh Fleet.

An escort mission, facing ten Soviet warships...is this too much?

Miller quickly came to his senses and saw the parameters of 055 written in the data, as well as the fact that Gray Wolf had dispatched five such monsters this time, and an unknown warship that liked to show cartoons to others...

This is not about guarding against the Russian bear, this is clearly about guarding against the Big Bad Wolf.

Miller clearly remembered that many years ago, when he was not yet a general, he followed a fully staffed fleet to the East China Sea, but ended up leaving in disgrace.

"If these data are true, then..." Miller murmured, "Gray Wolf is too terrifying. Such an antique from so many years ago can be so much more powerful than our most advanced cruisers. If they have an aircraft carrier... Oh, my god, why would there be such a terrifying monster!"

"General, we are now..."

"Follow the command of the headquarters!" Miller said without hesitation, "The decision of the headquarters will not be wrong. Also, tell the boys that this mission is unusual. Everyone should be alert. The Russian bear should pay attention, but you should pay more attention to... our allies!"

Miller felt a little depressed after giving the order.

The mighty Seventh Fleet actually has to worry about just six ships...

......

Prince Island.

The naval port is making intensive preparations. Since the probability of actual combat is very high, to the point where if they don't fight they will have to actively look for trouble, Zeng Wangcai is also very busy.

He traveled back and forth between five warships every day, resupplying each ship and ensuring that all had sufficient ammunition.

In addition, he also had to check whether the captains of the five ships were familiar with the ships.

This situation has both good and bad sides. The good side is that there is no problem with 055, as Xiaobao and Yutie are skilled in their jobs. The bad side is that 052 is a little bit short, as the combination of Lin Huyang and Xiaohu does not have a single soldier.

But it is not a big problem. The people on the ship are all veterans, and the newcomers are the elite of the navy who have been trained for a long time.

On the last night, after Zeng Wangcai replenished the last batch of supplies from the space to 052, he was already quite tired, so he did not go back, but took a nap on 052.

He slept soundly and Zeng Wangcai didn't wake up until after ten o'clock.

"Brother, are you awake?" The tanned Xiaohu squatted in front of Zeng Wangcai and said with his white teeth showing, "When you were asleep, Yellen kept calling you. She called you several times. We saw that you were sleeping soundly, so we didn't call you."

"Yellen?" Zeng Wangcai rubbed his eyes and picked up the phone. There were seven missed calls. "I guess she's busy. Never mind. Do you have anything to eat? Keep it warm. I'm hungry!"

"Yes, fish porridge!" Xiaohu ran over and brought a big bowl of porridge and placed it in front of Zeng Wangcai. "It's made from the grouper you mentioned. Brother, are we really going to fight this time?"

Xiaohu had one regret, which was that he didn't get to join the army. Although staying at home was stable, he later envied his younger brother who was able to follow his elder brother into the army and travel around.

After Zeng Wangcai came back, he noticed Xiaohu's mentality. He thought, they are all brothers and they are all flesh and blood, so he followed Xiaohu's wishes and let Xiaohu venture out into the world.

In fact, it can’t be called adventuring. Over the years, Xiaohu has never been in any major danger, not even when he followed the old lady Xianyu to experience fighting.

"What are you thinking about?" Zeng Wangcai drank a mouthful of porridge and relaxed his brows. "We are not fighting. What's the point of fighting? We are just using a ship to send the bomb to another ship. It's that simple... Day by day, don't be so aggressive... Yangzi, you keep an eye on him for me."

"Don't worry!" Lin Huyang, who was standing upright on the side, said quickly, "Don't mention Xiaohu, I'm also envious of this kind of scene. I asked Captain Yang what the American Seventh Fleet is."

There are more than 300 people on the ship, and more than 100 of them are naval pioneers. They know much more about the American army than Lin Huyang and Xiaohu.

"You may be jealous, but I'm going to be frank with you!" Zeng Wangcai put down his bowl of porridge, stood up and said seriously, "Once you're on the ship and in the team, I'm the supreme commander. You must obey my orders. If any of you don't obey my orders, I'm not your big brother anymore!"

Xiaohu shivered with fear.

Captain Yang nodded secretly, feeling a little relieved. He really didn't understand why Zeng Wangcai, a soldier of former rank, would place such an unprofessional person in such an important place.

Fortunately, Zeng Wangcai immediately promoted Captain Yang and asked Captain Yang and Lin Huyang to supervise each other.

After doing all this, Zeng Wangcai picked up the phone and called Yellen back.

"Wow... have you added more troops?"
