Chapter 634 The leader wouldn't lie... right?
"It's already been retrieved! Hey, let me tell you, two of my best hands almost got killed in the sea trying to get this! You little brat, if you don't help your uncle out now, you'll owe him a huge favor, I'm telling you!"
"Huh? A conspiracy?"
"bomb?"
While the naval leaders and their crews were frantically rubbing their two comrades from the South China Sea Fleet, they listened to Xiao Dai Mao's urgent words.
"It doesn't seem like it..."
Looking at the unidentified flying object that had been broken into three pieces inside the fishing net, the naval leader carefully tried to walk over to the red thing for a closer look.
Unexpectedly, he was immediately pulled aside by the previously dejected political commissar of the South China Sea Fleet.
"Commander! I'll handle this! I don't know how many of those big-nosed mines I've dismantled. If they're delayed detonation, I'll spot them immediately!"
Comrade Zhenping gestured for his comrades to step back, then, trembling, he leaned closer to observe carefully.
Upon hearing that a comrade had risked his life to inspect the missile, Jiang Xia recalled the structural diagram of the Sidewinder missile from his mind and guided the soldier through the inspection via radio.
"Circuit board? Yes! Is it burnt? It shouldn't be, it's fine!"
"Is that something unusual up ahead? Does that big round ball count? It looks a bit like the incense burner an old landlord would play with... Hey, what's this little trumpet? This little thing is quite exquisite!"
"Oh, is that a gyroscope? And the little horn is a receiving antenna? Tsk tsk, the bald eagle's craftsmanship is impressive! Once it's attached to the back, it's no big deal!"
Following Jiang Xia's instructions, Comrade Zhenping of the South China Sea Fleet carefully examined the object. Apart from the faint pine scent emanating from the residual fuel at the tail, there was nothing unusual about it.
"Could it be that this really isn't a missile?"
At this moment, Secretary Liu leaned close to Jiang Xia's ear and relayed what he had just heard Comrade Lu's analysis to him.
"No! This looks like an upside-down airplane. If it were a missile, its exterior would be slippery, like the torpedoes we use!"
Comrade Zhenping casually patted the thing in front of him, and then described its appearance in simple language.
Just now, this thing suddenly broke apart in the sea, which gave him quite a fright. Luckily, his comrades brought a lot of fishing nets this time, otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to retrieve it intact. Because of this, it stayed underwater for a bit longer, which gave those inexperienced comrades from the North Sea quite a fright…
Huh? Why are our comrades in Beihai carrying so many fishing nets...? They only received this mission to retrieve the crashed aircraft halfway through their journey. What were they originally planning to do?
Comrade Zhenping secretly glanced in the direction of his naval superior. This glance, however, caused him to become distracted, and his hand movements on the machine became a little too large.
"pat..."
The unidentified flying object split open somewhere, and a black, round, curled-up thing rolled out from it.
"Damn! What kind of luck did I have?!"
"Bomb! Watch out!"
As Comrade Zhenping shouted these words, he also leaned his body towards the dark, blurry thing.
"political commissar!"
Seeing his leader's actions, another dark-skinned, thin man crawled on the ground, using his hands and feet to push Comrade Zhenping aside with his head, and then scooped the dark, gooey thing under his body. Then, after two more rolls, he reached the ship's side, and using the momentum, plunged into the sea.
"Fish!"
Comrade Zhenping gagged twice, resisting the urge to look at the fish that had fallen in. Instead, he shouted to the soldiers who were preparing to jump into the water to rescue the fish, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Protect the commander..."
…………
On Jiangxia's side, after listening to Comrade Zhenping's description, they also understood what this thing was.
That's the Bald Eagle's "Firebee," the target drone they use! Seriously, they actually think it's an air-to-ground missile!
Even if this thing is the first drone with reconnaissance capabilities, it's just for taking pictures, Jiang Xia felt reassured.
I'd only been standing for a minute when I heard noises from the other end of the line. Holy crap!
The Bald Eagles have no sense of martial ethics; have they really turned this thing into a weapon of mass destruction?
Seriously?! The tables have turned so quickly! They just said it wasn't a bomb, and now one's rolled out?
Jiang Xia was in tears, Secretary Liu's face was ashen, and Pang Guoxing was also anxiously calling out to the front.
After a long while, the radio finally made a sound.
"Heh heh, that damn bald eagle, it put a camera in there. Um, boss, is it okay that the film got wet?"
"No problem! No problem! As long as everyone is safe, there's no problem! We can retrieve that thing after ensuring our own safety..."
"Hey, boss, what are you saying? We managed to salvage this thing completely intact, so consider it a contribution!"
"Yes, it definitely counts! By retrieving this thing, we can not only analyze the level of remote control technology used by the other side, but also analyze why it malfunctioned! That's a huge contribution! However, I'm not a leader, but I can make a suggestion to my superiors!"
"Hehe, forget about suggestions. Could you make me a few speedboats equipped with 'sea snares'?"
"Our South China Sea Fleet is suffering! When we reported last year, we only had less than ten ships of all sizes..."
"it is good!"
Comrade Zhenping was stunned. Huh, why so straightforward? But looking at the naval bigwig next to him who kept winking at him: The leader wouldn't lie... right?
