"You kid, your wings are really strong, you can talk so plausibly to your adoptive father!"
"Father, I."
"Okay, okay." Chai Shao waved his hands with a smile on his face. Not only did he not show any nervousness at all, he seemed to be a complete layman who didn't understand the huge restrictions on the use of this latest magical weapon called "submarine". Then
His expression is no different from the kind of uncle who likes to brag, which is common on the streets of Chang'an.
This expression made King Luo Bin even more aware that something was going to happen today, but immediately after Chai Shao waved his hand, he saw the old guy and the old god saying, "If we continue to fight, this ship will indeed not be able to hold on. But who can say that we
Are you going out to fight?"
"ah?"
King Luo Bin was stunned when he heard this. What did it mean? Didn't Chai Shao just want to continue chasing the thief?
Looking up at the confused gaze of the junior, Chai Shao's face became even more proud, and he smiled and said, "You kid, you're still a fool."
"We do want to continue chasing, but I didn't say we wanted to catch up and fight with them. Don't slander good people."
"this."
As soon as King Luo Bin heard what Chai Shao said, his heart suddenly dropped.
After all, Chai Shao is still a veteran, so it is impossible for him to attack on the spot!
As a young man, I didn't even rush forward. How could this old man make such a low-level mistake? However, after learning from Chai Shao that the senior did not intend to make such a low-level mistake, King Luo Bin felt relieved, but he was still confused.
Since Chai Shao does not intend to continue the pursuit, if the ship does not go back, then... is this going to go shopping?
After thinking about what Chai Shao said, King Luo Bin looked suspicious, "What do you mean by the foster father, to only chase but not to fight?"
"Exactly!"
"this……"
Finally fully understanding what Chai Shao meant, King Luo Bin nodded.
I see.
After talking for a long time, Chai Shao really had no intention of taking action!
If that's the case, it makes sense.
Anyway, if there is no battle, then the submarine only needs to move. The risk is not that great. It can really sail for another hour. In fact, it will take another two or three hours, which is half a day's work.
Judging from the experience over this period of time, it is completely feasible.
But this, why is this? What's the point of wandering around without killing the enemy? Some time ago, everyone came out to conduct some reconnaissance, but the current situation has changed.
This military operation is different from the previous ones. Each of the previous "arson" operations was done by the submarine alone, with friendly warships just skimming nearby - to put it bluntly, the main purpose was to test the effectiveness of this thing.
At this time, we can actually see how rich the martial virtues of the Tang Dynasty were. The weapons were tested directly in actual combat.
But since dozens of thieves' warships were destroyed this time, it can be imagined that this is naturally not something that just one submarine can do - the power of submarines lies in their ability to break through defense lines and break through detection.
But it does not have any huge power beyond human understanding.
In the Tang Dynasty, everyone who knew about the existence of submarines obviously understood this. Therefore, this operation mainly used the submarine as a guide to detect the latest location of the thieves, and then guide the warships to launch operations.
There is nothing to say about this part. After the submarine had clearly investigated the places where these thieves stopped at sea, the warships naturally came over quietly, and then sent out small boats to start. Although this kind of action is actually quite large,
But after all, it was still a surprise attack, so the powerful warships of the Tang Dynasty also had to operate covertly, and the final result of this covert operation was naturally quite good.
As for this time, it is naturally another reconnaissance mission of the submarine out to sea.
The last time, the thieves were severely wounded, but the Imperial Guards of the Tang Dynasty are not creatures that are easy to feed - if you offend the Tang Dynasty, how can you get over it if they don't feed you cleanly?
As for today's operation, reconnaissance is the main purpose. As for the use of manned torpedoes again, it is actually an "expensive move." In general, the purpose is reconnaissance.
But it is still very strange, because what the submarine has detected in recent days is that the frequency of the other party's ships changing places to dock has increased significantly.
There is no doubt that these thieves and pirates became nervous and panicked because of the last wave of raids by the Tang Dynasty.
And this frequent change of place is undoubtedly the product of this panic. These guys should also be aware of Datang's strange detection and surprise capabilities. As for this panic, and the countermeasures they came up with in the panic.
Whether it is useful or not, of course it is.
It was really useful, at least in King Luo Bin's opinion. If he wanted to destroy the opponent's 70 ships at once in the future like last time, I'm afraid it would be more and more difficult.
But of course, this was not enough to discourage King Luo Bin, because although it was more difficult to severely damage the opponent's 70 ships, submarines were still submarines after all.
Although it cannot severely damage the opponent's 70 large ships at one time, it can search and raid the enemy's commander's ship along any route. It is still completely possible!
Having this kind of ability means that any force on the sea may not be afraid of direct military attacks from the Tang Dynasty, but if it wants to do something, haha, it is impossible not to think carefully about it!
The reason why King Luo Bin objected to the decision of the old man Chai Shao was not only worried that the submarine would not be able to withstand use and cause problems and be scrapped, but also another major factor. In King Luo Bin's understanding, the military role of this submarine was
Compared with any other warship, it is overwhelmingly powerful. It is a unique kind of power that refuses to be operated!
In other words, there is no need to rush to accomplish any great feats at all, but I am somewhat unwilling to accept the fact that these thieves on the sea cannot be wiped out in one go. It is better to directly kill the opponent's leader, or directly take them back to Chang'an for trial.
.
However, although today's King Luo Bin is still much younger than Chai Shao, his mentality is quite mature, and he can only control this unwillingness.
Now Chai Shao said this.
Although King Luo Bin was confused, there was a glimmer of excitement deep in his eyes...
Judging from what Chai Shao meant, the old man probably knew what he was doing and knew not to use too much force to destroy this precious submarine. But listening to his tone, it seemed that Chai Shao still had a way to make the Forbidden Army lose face to these gangs.
What if the innocent thief gives me a hard blow? What if that’s really the case.
That’s not a needle!
King Luo Bin was just excited, and then he saw that Chai Shao couldn't hold it in any longer, so he explained with a smile.
"This gang of thieves, there are many people recruited on the ship..."
