Chapter 256: The Top Deck
As the command hub of the aircraft carrier, the outer armor of the bridge can be said to be the thickest part of the entire aircraft carrier, nearly a thousand millimeters thicker than the hull and flight deck below the waterline.
In addition to the heavy steel plates, there are flame-retardant modules and composite armor on the outside that can be quickly replaced, and even if a missile can escape electromagnetic interference and anti-aircraft fire to hit the bridge, it will not be able to cause any damage to the command center inside the bridge.
Even the porthole, which seems to be the weakest defense, has four layers of special polymer glass, and there is a thin but extremely tough metal film on top of the glass, even if an anti-aircraft anti-aircraft machine gun with a caliber of more than 10 millimeters is used to strafe the porthole, the bullet cannot penetrate these four layers of glass.
On the porthole, there is also an armor plate that can be lowered to protect the personnel in the bridge in the heat of battle.
The definition of a supercarrier like the Sky Class in war is not only to provide a platform for carrier-based aircraft to take off and land, but to integrate the dual roles of battleships and aircraft carriers in the old era.
It can be said that a supercarrier is equivalent to a mobile fortress of war at sea, with a powerful firepower platform and heavy armor, and it is also a symbol of the military strength of a country's navy.
However, a battleship, no matter how thick the armor on the outside is, must be much more fragile on the inside, what Qi Lin and Cheng Yanqiu have to do is to use explosives or railguns to directly destroy the operating system in the bridge command room from the inside, so that the mutual aid association cannot control the aircraft carrier to carry out long-range strikes against the large forces of the consortium alliance.
Qi Lin and the three of them found a cabin with no people, and attacked three unlucky players, and then changed the overly conspicuous inquisition uniforms on their bodies.
Qi Lin raised his wrist, and the floor plan of the two ship islands on the brain screen outlined in detail the various paths and passages in the ship island, as well as some hidden rooms and cabins, as well as some important equipment.
"There are still five kilograms of explosives in the eye of the fog, plus your total of ten kilograms, fifteen kilograms of explosives should barely disable one side of the bridge." Qi Lin said.
"Well, then from here, we need to divide our troops into two ways, which side do you choose?"
"I'm in charge of the bridge on the right side, the starboard side is close to the port, and the players of the mutual aid club are more active, so it's not easy to be noticed if I'm a small target." Qi Lin said.
"Alright, I'll go to the bridge on the left with Foggy Eyes." Cheng Yanqiu nodded.
The three of them immediately divided into two teams, found a vacancy in the corridor outside, and walked out of the cabin.
The top deck of the second deck is the top deck of the aircraft carrier, but this top deck is completely different from the old era, and all kinds of "illegal buildings" are built on it, turning the top deck of the aircraft carrier into a small-scale town.
Although renting land and building houses on the "holy ship" of the Mutual Aid Society had to pay a terrifying amount of resource points to the Mutual Aid Society, and a series of very complicated inspections and approvals, those businessmen still flocked to the aircraft carrier - not only because it was safer and more reason, but also because of the business opportunities contained in it.
Rent for shops in prime locations is always very expensive, but the Mutual Aid Society itself is not large enough to fill the entire aircraft carrier, so it can only lease large tracts of spare space to foreign merchants - of course, these merchants cannot be from the hostile forces of the Mutual Aid Society, at least not on the surface.
After the major consortia were expelled by the mutual aid association, they still sent many people to hide their identities and infiltrate the steel city.
Of course, the profits of one or two small shops are not visible to the big conglomerates, not to mention that a large part of them will be siphoned off by mutual aid associations, whose main task is to listen to information and collect intelligence.
According to the rules of the mutual aid association, foreign merchants cannot directly open a shop to sell complete arms such as guns - this is a business completely controlled by the mutual aid association, and they will never be easy for outsiders to cut this huge cake.
However, when Qi Lin found the store, he found that the roller shutter of the small store had been pulled to the bottom, and it was written in black marker pen, "There is a shortage of goods, and it is temporarily closed." ”
And on the edge of the roller shutter, there are traces of deformation that have been pried open.
On the counters of several shops around, there are very few goods for sale, and one owner is pulling the roller shutter in front of the store, and it seems that it is also about to close.
Qi Lin hurriedly stepped up, took out an inferior cigarette from the cigarette case in his pocket, handed it over, and asked, "Boss, what's wrong with these shops, it feels very depressed." ”
The boss took the cigarette, glanced at Qi Lin, and said slowly: "Look at you, you are a newcomer, or you haven't been back to the Steel City for a long time - recently the Mutual Aid Association has promulgated new regulations, which not only increases the taxes on us outsiders, but also often finds reasons to withhold the goods we ship from other places, and this business is about to go on and on." ”
The boss was obviously in a bad mood, took a lighter out of his pocket, lit the cigarette, and took a hard puff.
"Ahem, ahem...... You're not a good smoker, you're choking! ”
"There's no way, what's the shortage of materials now...... Qi Lin looked around, and after confirming that there were no people from the mutual aid association nearby, he lowered his voice and said, "Aren't many of these shops controlled by big conglomerates, what, will those big conglomerates be short of this money?" ”
When the boss heard this, he hurriedly took a step back vigilantly, then stared at Qi Lin and said, "Young man, you can eat indiscriminately, and you can't talk nonsense." ”
Seeing the other party's nervous appearance, Qi Lin laughed, patted the Bayi bar on his back, and said: "I said it casually, boss, don't worry about it - I just want to buy some accessories, this old gun has been around for decades, and the firing pins are almost worn out." By the way, do you know why something happened to this store? ”
Qi Lin pointed to the parts store opened by the consortium alliance on the aircraft carrier.
“…… You say this? He was different from us, and he had never been short of supplies, but the other day the boss suddenly closed the store and ran away, and then a group of Templars came and pried open the door of the store and searched it for a long time. ”
"Oh, that's it, thank you." Qi Lin handed over another cigarette, although the boss disliked the cigarette on his mouth, but he did not refuse to come, took it and stuffed it into the pocket of his chest.
The shops opened by these foreign players on the aircraft carrier are not very large, and the storefront and the warehouse in the back are only about ten square meters, and it is impossible to hide a large number of prohibited goods, it seems that the true identity of the shopkeeper should be exposed.
Qi Lin originally wanted to find someone to help him attract patrol players near the island, but now it seems that he can't get any support and help.
According to the agreed time, now the large army on Lei Kui's side began to launch a strong attack fifteen minutes ago, and as for how long the remaining mutual aid union troops in the western region can hold out under the strong attack of the private army of the consortium alliance, Qi Lin's heart is not sure.
Time is tight, and missiles on the carrier can be launched at any moment.
Qi Lin raised his head, and from here he could clearly see the high bridge standing on the starboard ship island on the deck - the command room was at the top of the bridge, that is, the sixth floor, and according to the surveillance camera of Cooper's intrusion, there were at least more than a hundred Templars guarding the command room, and at least a third of them were elite knights of good strength.
"Forcing your way in will definitely not work...... If you sneak in, these hidden passages are guarded...... Tsk, that's tricky......"
