Chapter 123: The Enigmatic Fleet
In the face of interests, all gods and horses are floating clouds, this is a common rule in the world, Wu Chen also knows the idea of the Angolan government, in order to defeat the rebels, not counting the land, they have carved out an area of hundreds of kilometers in the shallow sea alone, mainly near Zaire Province and Luanda. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Now that the situation in the country has stabilized, the Angolan government feels that it has suffered again, and wants to nationalize these resources, even if it cooperates with those big international conglomerates, in exchange for shares and taxes, which is better than mercenaries.
"Let them jump, I'm sure they'll be crying in a month at most, and they're crying!" Wu Chen didn't understand what he said because of Selena, but he knew that Thompson must know what he meant.
"The rebels have not been completely destroyed by us, they are only forced to sit at the negotiating table, and the Angolan government is also full of contradictions, attracting a group of people to suppress a group of people, if the president is disobedient, you will change to an obedient person, this method does not need me to teach you, right?" Wu Chen said with a sneer while staring at the camera in front of him.
A mysterious Russian fleet crossed the Pacific Ocean into the Indian Ocean and then into the Atlantic, and it was clear that it was on a mission to Africa. This news immediately attracted the attention of various countries, and everyone believed that this was an important measure taken by Russia to maintain its position after the collapse of the Soviet Union, but no one knew the deep meaning of this.
The warships participating in this fleet include the two nuclear-powered missile cruisers Admiral Ushakov and Admiral Lazaev, the two Kara-class anti-submarine cruisers Tashkent and Tallinn, the two Dreadnought-class destroyers Steadfast and Inspire, the two ocean-going landing ships Ivan Rogov and Alexander Nikolaev, the Severostali Typhoon-class nuclear submarine, and two large supply vessels.
With such an extremely powerful fleet, all the countries that passed through it were extremely nervous and sent planes and warships to patrol the periphery of the territorial waters. The whole family is scolding the Russians for having nothing to do, being paralyzed, and the excitement of the fight in their nest now, and the heart of sending a fleet to cruise on the high seas, they are really full!
The initiator, Marcas, is constantly reporting the route of the fleet and various situations to Wu Chen, he is a celebrity in the eyes of the Russian Navy, and he is also the buyer of these ships.
The anti-drug operation in Mexico lasted more than three months, during which time the Russian Navy carried out extensive repairs to the ships, replaced broken equipment, refueled the reactors, tested and inspected, and started the trip without a hitch.
Money is a must, and it doesn't cost much money to buy a ship, but it costs $400 million just to upgrade weapons and equipment, electronic facilities, and maintenance power, but Wu Chen believes that it is not a loss at all, this is a warship that can fight at any time, and a batch of conventional missiles are retained on it, which is enough to threaten the US aircraft carrier fleet.
Why did the Russian fleet come to Africa? Of course, there is a reason, and it is high-sounding, it is that he was invited by the government of Sierra Leone to pay a friendly visit to the country, and this statement made the leaders of Western countries slap the table angrily, Nima, simply take us for fools!
With the passage of time, countries suddenly discovered an astonishing fact, although these warships and submarines are amazingly powerful, they all belong to the type of decommissioned or about to be decommissioned, and everyone began to be confused, what kind of moths are the Russians making and tossing around!
The most advanced nuclear submarines are always underwater, and only at night do they float next to the landing ships, and the warships are equipped with large electronic jammers, which are not actually discovered by US spy satellites.
The warship docked at the port of Bont on the island of Schelbro, although it is not a natural harbor, but after repair, it can dock large warships, but it must rely on a kilometer-long trestle, and it is still under construction, which is a reclamation project implemented using coastal rocks, and the foundation does not need to be laid at all, so the difficulty is not high.
A general of the Russian Navy began a friendly visit here with a group of naval officers. To everyone's surprise, this group of people had no intention of leaving, and after the formulaic procedures were completed, they wandered around here, almost making the intelligence officers of various countries and the staff officers of the navy think about it.
What is there to visit in such a place as Sierra Leone, look at you like this, it seems to be a walk on the beach in Hawaii!
A Dubna class supply ship and two bulk carriers, circumnavigating the Cape of Good Hope in Africa through the Turkish Strait, arrived in the offshore area of the Zaire province of Luanda to replenish the aircraft carrier Novorossiysk with fuel and daily supplies.
This was the most important component of the supply of aircraft carriers in the former Soviet Union, and through the efforts of Marcas, it became a member of the mercenary corps naval fleet.
"After the other side evacuates, will we have the ability to continue to operate these ships?" Wu Chen and Marcas kept in touch at all times. Such a huge fleet was able to attract the attention of the world at the beginning, and the key was that at this time it was still in the name of the Russian Navy.
"Boss, rest assured, two-thirds of these warships are our mercenaries, all of them are elites recruited from the former Soviet Navy, and some are recruited from the Russian Navy, the captains are all their own people, have rich work experience, and there is no problem with combat effectiveness at all, and more than 80 percent are officers and veterans with ten years of military experience." Marcus said with a smile.
"How are you talking to the Ukrainian side? Is the Antonov Bureau willing to implement the reorganization and become the holding company of our Haidongqing Air Transport and Logistics Company? Wu Chen is more concerned about this matter, paralyzed, there are no carrier-based aircraft, and the three aircraft carriers are the targets or models in the eyes of others.
"This is not up to them, there is no confidence to negotiate without money, the conditions we gave are very generous, and the Ukrainian government is also inclined to our control, at most by the end of the year, this agreement can be reached."
"In fact, we are now able to exert influence, there are no obstacles on the manufacturing side, we can't afford to eat, what is there to be proud of!" Marcas is confident about it.
"Well, immediately start developing our own carrier-based aircraft, at present we can only take off in a sliding jump, the only option is the Su-33 carrier-based aircraft, I will find a way to get the drawings, and get the technical drawings of the Super Hornet, the two carrier-based aircraft learn from each other's strengths, and strive to achieve aircraft carrier combat capability next year."
"Also, you arrange for the engineers and aircraft carrier specialists of the Black Sea Shipyard to arrive in Chittagong as soon as possible within a week, and we have to make some modifications to these three aircraft carriers, among which Novorossiysk and Gorshkov need to lengthen and widen the flight deck, dismantle some unnecessary facilities, and increase the number of carrier-based aircraft even at the expense of combat effectiveness. As for the aircraft carrier Minsk, it would be better to convert it into a helicopter carrier. Wu Chen said.
