Chapter 1472: Mine attack
The eight high-speed boats were released again and moored near the sterns of the four large flybridge yachts. With the slight ups and downs of the waves, they were always ready to rush out against the surface of the sea to drive all those who tried to break into the restricted area.
Each speedboat has three fully armed and murderous security personnel, one is responsible for driving the speedboat, and the other two are holding assault rifles, the bullets are loaded, and they can fire at any time!
In addition to assault rifles and pistols, in the cabin of each speedboat, at the feet of several armed security personnel, there are other weapons, such as crates containing bazooka rockets.
The four large flybridge yachts are also in a state of high alert, and all armed security personnel are ready for battle, staring at the surrounding misty sea.
On the flybridge decks of the four large yachts, each mounted a large-caliber anti-material sniper rifle, with a lethal muzzle pointing directly at the ships hidden behind the sea fog.
Moreover, these sniper rifles are equipped with high-power infrared scopes. Although the distance for precise aiming is limited due to the heavy fog that permeates the sea, they can definitely detect the first enemy under the same weather conditions!
This is enough. In the event of a conflict, these skilled snipers under Ye Tian will be able to fire before their opponents and kill all the foolish fools!
Not only is the security at the periphery of the restricted area very tight, the three large ships located in the core area are also in a state of high alert. All armed security personnel on board are armed with live ammunition and are ready to go into actual combat at any time!
The same is true underwater. The four large flybridge yachts on the periphery and the three large ships in the core area have a lot of surveillance cameras installed underwater to monitor the underwater situation without any blind spots.
Those ships that followed the expedition fleet and made unpredictable intentions have just received a warning that they are prohibited from breaking into the exploratory fleet’s working area, otherwise they will bear the consequences!
After receiving the warning, those ships did not rush into the restricted area, and one after another moored on the sea 500 meters away from the exploratory fleet, ready to move!
Some of the guys on the boats have even taken action and began to wear deep diving equipment in the cabin, preparing to dive deep into the sea and get in from relatively safe water depths!
Just as these guys were preparing and dreaming of making a fortune, they suddenly noticed some unusual changes on the radar!
The maritime police patrol boats and government official boats from Britain and France also received warnings from their bosses. Every voice from the walkie-talkie was frustrated and helpless!
Immediately afterwards, a frenzy of incomparable anger and even hysterical curses erupted from these ships.
"Fuck U! You **** Yankees, too arrogant, go back as soon as possible, this is Europe, not the United States, you can let you **** do whatever they want!"
"As I said, those two U.S. warships were escorting the **** Steven. As expected, when it's over, no one should even think about attacking those two sunken treasures again. It's totally useless!"
The reason these guys are so angry is that the two American warships cruising in the nearby waters, a Burke-class destroyer, and a supply-class fast combat support ship!
Just now, the two American warships suddenly adjusted their sailing directions, and successively made moves that intended to sail into the English Channel.
More importantly, the British and French coastal defense agencies discovered at the same time that two heavily armed Seahawk helicopters suddenly jumped into the air from the two US warships and rushed straight into the open waters.
Seeing the situation displayed on the radar and hearing the warning from the superior, those guys who were going to explore the sea and try to get a piece of the sunken treasure, can they not feel extremely angry?
What about anger? They can only curse frantically with their throats, and can't do anything else, just call Naihe!
Coincidentally, those guys who were preparing to dive deep into the sea and coveting the shipwreck treasure, temporarily dispelled this idea, the situation is better than others!
Steven’s crazy **** and his sturdy and brutal subordinates are already very difficult to deal with. With the help of two warships and American soldiers, why does he let people live?
While these guys cursed wildly, the exploration continued.
Through the high-definition camera carried by the wireless remote-controlled underwater robot, the situation on the cargo ship under the sea is increasingly presented on the live screen and in front of everyone.
"Guys, this big hole in the hull of the freighter was obviously caused by a mine attack. The damage was very serious below the waterline of the freighter. This should be the cause of the sinking of the freighter!"
Ye Tian explained with a smile, pointing at the large-screen TV in front of him.
At this time, the wireless remote-controlled underwater robot has come to the middle of the cargo ship on the seabed, suspended in the sea, and taking pictures of the situation on the ship's hull.
Near the middle of the freighter, below the waterline, there was a large irregular hole about 1.5 meters in diameter. The iron sheet was rolled up, as if it had bloomed, and it looked quite terrifying.
Moreover, around the big hole, there were densely packed cracks, and the violent explosion almost knocked the freighter in half.
The reason why this is a mine attack, Ye Tian judged from two aspects, one is the location of the attack, on the side of the hull and below the waterline; the other is the degree of damage to the hull caused by the attack.
If it is a torpedo attack, with such a thousand-ton freighter, once it is hit by a torpedo in the middle of the hull, it will definitely be blown into two pieces, and there is no possibility of being spared!
Hearing Ye Tian's words, everyone in the living room nodded and had no objection to his analysis.
The same goes for the audience on the live broadcast, and they agree with Ye Tian's words.
After a short pause, Ye Tian continued:
"From this it can be seen that this freighter was probably not sunk by a warship, but was very unlucky. It accidentally hit a mine in this area and sank!
If this is really the freighter carrying nacui gold and jewellery diamonds, it can only be said that Rommelfee is very unlucky, but we are very lucky, we have our own destiny! "
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter in the living room, and everyone laughed.
Many people on the live broadcast also laughed. Everyone’s laughter was full of envy. Why is the lucky person the **** of Steven? How good would he be?
When the laughter fell a little, Ye Tian continued:
"Guys, manipulate the underwater robot to look inside the hull through that big hole, check the situation inside the big hole, maybe you will find something.
You control another underwater robot to inspect the surrounding situation, mainly to check the water depth below 40 meters, to see if there are any remaining mines!
As for the water depth of more than 40 meters, I don’t think there will be any problems. For the safety of the waterway, the maritime departments of Britain and France must have cleaned it many times.
But in and below the undercurrent, it may not be necessary. If you find a mine, notify us immediately, don’t look at the fact that more than 70 years have passed, the thing is also very deadly! "
"Understood~www.wuxiaspot.com~Steven, look at ours"
Kenny replied, and then acted.
The wireless remote-controlled underwater robot, which was originally suspended in the sea and photographed the hull of the ship, began to descend slowly, approaching the terrifying hole that was blown out by the mine.
When the powerful beam of the searchlight carried by the underwater robot penetrated the big hole, a group of frightened beautiful fish suddenly swam out of it, and then dispersed and escaped!
Immediately afterwards, one large, two small and three turtles swam out from the inside and quickly fled to the side, looking quite hurried!
Seeing this scene, a knowing chuckle immediately sounded in the living room on the main deck of the Brave Intrepid and countless live broadcasts!
Amidst the laughter, the orange-red wireless remote-controlled underwater robot has passed through the big hole and slowly entered the hull!
The picture on the big-screen TV immediately changed, and wherever the lights reached, the situation inside the freighter was immediately presented to everyone!
