Volume 3 The Storms of the East China Sea Chapter 14 Covert Operations

The aft hatch opened, and the roar of the wind swept the motor into the cabin

Lu Chengwen quickly pulled down the mask on top of his head, turned his head and glanced at the four team members including Kang Xiaoting and Su Mingjin who were standing behind him, and then gave a thumbs up to the pilot in charge of the airdrop

The patrol aircraft again lowered the altitude and finally remained at an altitude of less than 150 from the sea surface

The wind that poured into the cabin weakened a little, and the patrol plane was slowing down, preparing to airdrop five special forces

As the green light in the cabin lit up, the pilot standing next to the console gave Lu Chengwen a thumbs up and gestured that he could be airborne

The five special forces quickly stood in a straight line and checked each other's special umbrella bags on their backs

The winch on the floor of the engine room began to turn, and two large, streamlined submersible thrusters placed on the drop tray were slowly brought to the door

Lu Chengwen pulled down the taut wetsuit, shook his arms, and shook his legs

The two large submersible propulsion vehicles were specially developed for the test special forces: powered by composite batteries and propelled by superconducting electric motors, with a maximum sailing depth of 25 meters and a maximum cruising range of 125 kilometers; In the case of carrying four frogmen, the maximum underwater speed reaches 16 knots: there are also large storage boxes, which can reserve weapons and equipmentThe biggest feature of the submersible is that it can carry out ultra-low-altitude airdrops, is equipped with a multifunctional interface, and can dock with submarines equipped with related equipment, so it can be carried by transport aircraft or submarines to carry out combat missions

After dropping two submersible thrusters, Lu Chengwen and the other five people jumped out of the patrol plane one after another

At a distance of fifty meters from the sea surface, the parachute is automatically activated under the control of the barometric equipment; When the height was reduced to ten meters, the five special forces unhooked the hook attached to the parachute and jumped into the icy water

This parachute for ultra-low-altitude parachuting is also specially developed for experimental special forces, the minimum parachute height is 120, the safe parachute height is 150, the umbrella surface is made of special materials, and other objects are dissolved after 2 hours of immersion, or they sink quickly after immersion or dissolve within 25 hours, leaving no traces

After entering the water, using passive acoustic detection equipment, five special forces found the submersible thruster

Beneath the surface of the sea, there was a faint glow of marine plankton except for the faint light emitted from the instrument panel of the submersible thrusters

It wasn't until a bright light pierced the sea that the five special forces saw the behemoth that appeared in front of them

With five special forces submersible thrusters, they slowly approached the "Swordfish" submarine to meet them, Lu Chengwen parked the submersible thrusters on the crust behind the submarine command platform, Kang Xiaoting and Su Mingjin fixed the equipment on both sides of the submersible thrusters, and the other two special forces also fixed the submersible thrusters and swam over slowly

Take out the hammer and put it in the storage box, Lu Chengwen smashed it on the ground hatch of the submarine a few times

After a while, the hatch opened, and five special forces rushed in

With the roar of a pumping machine, the seawater in the cabin was pumped away, and Lu Chengwen first took off his breathing mask and greedily took a breath of air that was not too fresh

When the five special forces left the "wet cabin" and came to the inside of the submarine, they first saw Hua Jianfeng with an angry face

"Lu Chengwen, can you kid be a little more gentle?" Hua Jianfeng snatched the hammer from Lu Chengwen's hand, "Obediently, did you steal this guy from the quarry?" My baby bump can't stand your toss."

"Lao Hua, you're stingy too" Lu Cheng smiled when he heard this, and patted Hua Jianfeng's chest, "We finally met, not to mention preparing a few cups of hot coffee to entertain us, and reprimanding me in front of so many people, you don't know if you don't give me face, you still think we are enemies."

Hua Jianfeng also laughed and hugged Lu Chengwen hard

This made Lu Chengwen a little at a loss, and he didn't know how to "return the courtesy".

"The coffee has already been prepared, and the best submarine stove in the navy" Hua Jianfeng nodded at the other four special forces, "I also specially prepared a few beers for you to help you recuperate"

"Let's go to the command center to talk" Lu Chengwen pulled the topic back, "The task is important, when this combat operation is completed, I will invite you to eat a small stir-fry of the experimental special forces"

"Okay, then let's go to the front"

Under the leadership of Hua Jianfeng, the six of them passed through the command center and went straight to the captain's cabin

Compared to a year ago, the "Swordfish" has undergone significant changes with a total number of new equipment, which has received a total number of new equipment

Because of the use of a photoelectric periscope that does not penetrate the pressure-resistant shell, the command center can be arranged more flexibly, so the command center has been moved from the narrow upper deck to the wider main deck, and after the fire control computer with more powerful computing power is replaced, there is an additional fire control operation station, which can control three torpedoes at the same time to attack three targets, and there are also two more monitors on the tactical command platform, which can display the situation collected by sonar, radar and periscope at the same time, providing more abundant tactical information for commanders such as captains. Involve more officers in command

The biggest change on board the Swordfish is the addition of a "special operations module"

Located in command

The "special operations module" is 15 meters long, has 2 "wet cabins", can TTT fully armed special forces in and out, and can also include some small combat equipment The top of the cabin is equipped with a multi-functional interface connected to the submersible thruster, which can provide electricity and oxygen for the diving thruster

With the 15-metre lengthening of the hull, the performance of the Swordfish's sideside passive sonar has also been greatly improved

After completing the refit, the "Swordfish" not only strengthened its anti-ship and anti-submarine combat capabilities, but also possessed the ability to perform special operations missions

At the beginning, the "Swordfish" was originally chosen to be converted into a "special submarine" because, first, the "Swordfish" was originally a submarine with an experimental nature and undertook a large number of test tasks; second, the "Swordfish" had a high degree of secrecy and was not known to the outside world; third, the "Swordfish" adopted modular construction technology and the difficulty of adding a "special operations module" was relatively low; Finally, there is no complex mechanical equipment on the "Swordfish", and the difficulty of transformation is low

Closing the hatch, Hua Jianfeng poured a glass of beer for each of the five special forces

"I already know your mission" Hua Jianfeng took out a cigarette, first lit one for Lu Chengwen, and then scattered one for each of the other four before saying, "After you get on the boat, I will increase the speed to 24 knots, and it is expected that you will be able to reach the predetermined sea area in three hours."

"That's great," Lu Chengwen nodded

"Do you need our help when you retreat?"

Lu Chengwen shook his head and said: "The people who landed on the island are all civilians and don't know diving skills, and we can't let the 'Swordfish' continue to take risks, and when the time comes, the East China Sea Fleet will send a helicopter to pick us up, so we will go to the fishing boat and evacuate under the cover of the East China Sea Fleet."

Hua Jianfeng took two puffs of his cigarette and said, "It's okay, more than a dozen warships, how can they be much more insured than a submarine, what else do you need my help with?" ”

"Find a place for us to catch our breath and don't let anyone else bother us"

"No problem, you guys can rest here" Hua Jianfeng got up and said, "When you arrive at the predetermined sea area, I will send someone to call you."

After Hua Jianfeng went out, the five of them sat on the ground

For the next three hours, they could only wait patiently

In order not to be detected by the AWACS aircraft of the Japanese Air Self-Defense Force, the maritime patrol planes could only fly along ordinary patrol routes, send them to a place about 150 meters away from the Diaoyu Islands, and then send them to the sea area about 15 kilometers away from the Diaoyu Islands by submarines, and finally rely on submersible propulsion to reach the Diaoyu Islands

From the time it leaves the naval aviation base, it takes a total of 4:50 to reach the Diaoyu Islands

Over the next six hours, five special forces must find the personnel who have landed on the Diaoyu Islands and put them on a helicopter or a warship that has come to meet them

Before dawn, the operation must end

Although Lu Chengwen did not want to fight with the Japanese special forces on the narrow Diaoyu Island, Xiang Linghui made it very clear when he arranged the task that he would rescue the people who landed on the island at all costs

When the "Swordfish" quietly approached the Diaoyu Islands, Yan Bo was rushing from the Prime Minister's Office to the Cathay Pacific Hotel

When he met Pang Xinglong, Yan Bo knew that Ji Youguo had greeted the premier of the State Council and had not encountered any trouble in taking out loans from state-owned banks in the form of asset mortgages, and Pang Xinglong even promised to provide more loans to Yan Bo in the form of a central government guarantee

Other things didn't worry about Yanbo

After meeting Ye Yongji in the afternoon, Yanbo not only persuaded the young and vigorous billionaire, but also asked Ye Yongji to come forward and gather several other patriotic Chinese businessmen

+; Dramatic

Ye Yonggi is relatively less noticeable, at least he still holds American citizenship and his main assets are still in the United States

After arriving at the Cathay Pacific Hotel, Yanbo took his daughter directly to the conference center on the top floor

The meeting was presided over by Ye Yongji himself, and among the participants, in addition to Long Yuteng and Shutao, who are familiar with Yanbo, there are also Zhang Wannian, who lives in Germany, Li Chengwen, who lives in Italy, You Mingjun, who develops in Australia, and Li Yucheng, a Singaporean ship king

Yan Bo also knows these people, but he doesn't have many contacts

As well-known Chinese businessmen, they not only have a high reputation in their respective industries, but also have great influence in the countries where they live

Ye Yongji was able to invite so many people, which more or less surprised Yanbo

According to his idea, it would be very good to have 45 Chinese businessmen participate, and a total of eight people came, and each of them had a net worth of more than 10 billion US dollars

Controlling his slightly excited and slightly apprehensive mood, Yanbo sat down next to Ye Yongji

Regardless of the outcome, this is an opportunity to unite Chinese businessmen and show the strength of Chinese people!

Damn it*
