Warship of Great Power Chapter 396

  Chapter 396 Blow up a warship and sell scrap iron

the next day.

  Both submarines were installed, as well as various submarine production equipment from the Red Solmovo Shipyard, and everyone began to prepare for departure.

  The submarine is installed on the floating dock, and this is just the beginning. Next, various preparations must be made.

  For example, to add water, electricity, upper and lower passages to the submarine, ventilation facilities to prevent the submarine battery from producing hydrogen, and spray equipment to prevent exposure to the sun, this is not simply covered with a camouflage net.

  You can look at the photos of those submarines transported. If there is no camouflage net, it is the same as the open kitchen without natural gas. The submarine cannot be completely closed. Who knows whether the submarine's battery will produce some hydrogen.

  At the same time, in order to take off and land safely, all kinds of fuel on the submarine had to be unloaded. These tasks took another whole day.

  Qin Tao looked at a little bit of perfection, and then thought of something: "Is the charging power enough? We can't let the experts on the submarine feel cold."

   There are not only sailors escorting the submarine, but also several experts. During the transportation, there is no fuel inside, and the engine cannot be started, so the power supply can only be supplied from the outside. If the power is insufficient, you may have to eat cold food.

  Qin Tao didn't want the soldiers to be wronged.

   "Enough, we have a special generator on the floating dock to supply power."

  Qin Tao nodded.

  Everything was ready, and the huge floating dock slowly left the dock.

  Qin Tao put down a big stone in his heart.

   "Boss Qin, where are you going next?" Xu Zhengyang asked Qin Tao.

   "Of course I went home."

Going back now, I can still catch up with my wife's confinement. For a woman, this is the most important time. Qin Tao doesn't want to have any regrets at this time. His wife has just given birth and he has to come out. Now, The matter has been completed. For him, of course he has to go back. His wife and children are hot on the bed.

   "Okay, let's book a ticket to go back immediately." Xu Zhengyang said.

   Just finished speaking, but heard a few old men beside him expressing emotion.

  "Kovacic is really bold!"

   "Yes, I heard that the Black Sea Fleet is looking for him all over the world, but I just don't know where he went."

"Well, there's no way around it. Since the collapse of the Red Empire, they haven't paid wages. The frigate Grisha, the anchor and other parts that can be disassembled have long been dismantled and sold. Now , They can only blow up warships and sell scrap iron.”

   Blow up the warship to sell scrap iron! Hearing this operation, Xu Zhengyang only felt that his whole body was shocked.

  Qin Tao's eyes also brightened. He came to this world and was busy all the time, so he forgot this strange thing!

  This has to start with the issue of the ownership of the Black Sea Fleet.

  After the collapse of the Red Empire, the ownership of the Black Sea Fleet became a big problem. According to the division of the country, the Black Sea Fleet, whose main base is located on the Crimea Peninsula, should belong to Ermao.

  However, the Crimea Peninsula did not belong to Ermao in history.

  During the 15th-18th centuries, this place belonged to the Crimean Khanate. It was incorporated into Tsarist Russia in 1783. From 1918 to early 1954, it was a state of Da Mao. Of course, in October 1921, the Autonomous Republic of Crimea was briefly established. Until February 1954, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Red Empire ordered the Crimea state to be assigned to Ermao.

  The Red Empire at the beginning really considered the overall situation, and the result laid the fuse for subsequent conflicts.

  The Red Empire collapsed, and Ermao immediately announced that the Crimea Peninsula was his own, the Black Sea Fleet was his own, and the Kuznetsov was also his own.

  Da Mao definitely quit, so he drove away the Kuznetsov immediately.

  Although the Kuznetsov is gone, the Black Sea Fleet is still the main fleet of the Red Empire and has a large number of warships.

  For this piece of fat, Da Mao and Er Mao naturally did not want to give up. Er Mao publicly announced that the Black Sea Fleet will be fully taken over by Er Mao.

   Da Mao is not a vegetarian, and immediately declared that the "Black Sea Fleet" will always be Da Mao's property, and Er Mao has no right to divide the fleet.

   After that, in order to resolve the division of the military power of the collapsed Red Empire, the countries held a meeting in Minsk.

However, the ownership of the Black Sea Fleet is still a big problem. Da Mao and Er Mao are both fighting, and the conflict is irreconcilable. Therefore, after several times of contention, armed conflict is about to break out. They finally sat down and reached an agreement on the Black Sea Fleet. Transitional agreement on vesting rights.

In 1992, this agreement was signed, stipulating that the Black Sea Fleet will exist in the form of a joint fleet of the two countries in the next three years. The base will be jointly used and maintained by the two countries.

   In this way, the contradiction of the Black Sea Fleet has been temporarily put on hold, and of course, it is only temporary.

  The two countries are jointly managed, so the two countries have to jointly contribute money, but the sad thing about the Black Sea Fleet is that there is no money at all.

  Whether it is Da Mao or Er Mao, the domestic economy is in a mess, and the army under their control does not have enough military spending, let alone a controversial fleet like the Black Sea Fleet.

   So, neither country gave funding.

  In this case, the life of the Black Sea Fleet is so miserable.

  Go to the superior to ask for money, go to Da Mao's leader, he waved his hand, go to Er Mao!

  Look for Ermao's leader, Ermao waved his hand, go to Da Mao!

   From 1991 to now, three years have passed, and they haven't paid a penny of salary!

what to do?

  Some people leave, some are struggling, some are thinking of other ideas.

   For example, selling scrap iron!

Although many people are selling them, they are just dismantling and selling scrap iron. The frigate Grisha did a big thing this time: it blew up the entire warship and turned it into parts. Sold scrap iron!

   What happens after selling scrap iron? Of course I got the money and ran away!

  Anyway, staying in the Black Sea Fleet is meaningless. The big guy doesn't even have an object of allegiance. I don't know if it's Da Mao or Er Mao, so just run away.

   This Kovacic is powerful enough!

  Xu Zhengyang looked at Qin Tao with emotion, and found that Qin Tao's eyes shone with brilliance.

  He is very familiar with Qin Tao, and knows that Mr. Qin has a new idea.

  Qin Tao looked at Xu Zhengyang: "Before we go home, let's take a detour to the Crimea Peninsula and revisit the old place."

  Xu Zhengyang nodded.

  Qin Tao did revisit his old place. When he came to Crimea Peninsula for the first time, he came with Zhao Ling. At that time, the two of them had an unforgettable time.

   Now, Zhao Ling has given birth to a son for him and stayed in the country. As for the old Maozi couple he met back then, they have already gone their separate ways.

  Things are right and people are wrong.

  Of course, these memories of myself are trivial, and Ermao is the real thing.

After the transition period passed, the two sides tossed for a few more years, and finally divided the Black Sea Fleet. Da Mao got most of the property, but because there was no base, they had to lease it on the base in the Crimea Peninsula. As for Ermao, although they have been allocated a batch of warships, with their national strength, there is no way to maintain a large army size. They can only decommission or seal up these equipment.

  So, good things are wasted!

Qin Tao lived in the villa back then, facing the sea, and the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming. However, during the day, he did not go to the beach to swim, but slept in the villa, and only became active at night , went straight to the nearby bar.

  Both the big and the two like to drink. You can go without eating for a day, but you can't go without drinking for a day!

  Qin Tao sat on the bar, drinking with Xu Zhengyang, looking very relaxed, but in fact, he was constantly listening to the movement around him.

   "Hey, Fyodor, you seem to have a good harvest, and you can actually drink three bottles at a time with money." Two people sat next to them, and they were very moved when they saw that their companions actually asked for three bottles.

"Yeah, good luck, I didn't expect that there is gold in the thing that was opened today. Although it is very small, it is enough to spend a few days. This bottle is for you!" Fyodor said, Give one of the bottles to a companion.

   "Oh, I really envy you guys. Nothing can be dismantled on our submarine. Even if some can be dismantled, they can't be moved. Damn it." The companion clenched his fist angrily.

Surface ships can be dismantled as long as they can be moved, but submarines are different. The interior space of submarines is limited, and the various hatches are only for one person to pass through. When this kind of submarine is welded, all kinds of equipment have been welded. After entering it, it is too difficult to remove it and take it away!

   "Okhlopkov, I'm just curious. Haven't you seen that others can blow up warships? Don't you just blow up submarines and sell them for scrap?" Fyodor asked.

   "How is it possible! That Kovacic is really too much. They had a good time and ran away. Now, the guards in the base are strict. It is not so easy to blow up the warship."

  Predecessors plant trees and future generations enjoy the shade, while predecessors make mistakes and future generations suffer!

   It was too much to blow up a warship, so the entire fleet was shaken. In addition to chasing everyone on the Grisha frigate, they also increased their guards.

   "Hmph, the guards are strict? It's just to give those guards a chance to sell scrap iron!" Okhlopkov was a little annoyed.

   "I heard that the higher-ups have allocated a sum of money."

   "What's the use? Just that little money, it's not enough for the people above, can it go to us?"

  The two of them felt a burst of emotion again.

   "Come on, drink!"

  Fyodor drank two bottles, and Okhlopkov drank one bottle. After they finished drinking, the two walked out staggeringly.

  Qin Tao winked at Xu Zhengyang.

  Xu Zhengyang understood and chased after him.

  Second night.

  Okhlopkov stood at the door of the bar, searching constantly.

  If he wants to drink, he has to rub off on others, because he has no money. However, yesterday's luck may not be available every day. Now, he has been waiting until a voice came from behind him.

   "Hey bro, want a drink?"

  When he saw the wine in the opponent's hand, Okhlopkov nodded immediately: "Yes, I want to drink, do you want to give it to me?"

   "Of course, how about we make friends?"

  Okhlopkov nodded: "Okay, okay."

  His eyes were fixed on the bottle. After the other party handed it over, he immediately raised his head and gulped down all the wine into his stomach. He can sleep well again tonight!

  Okhlopkov clicked his lips a few times.

"Thanks."

   "Do you want to be able to drink as much as you want every day in the future?" The other party asked suddenly.

  Okhlopkov opened his eyes wide: "Can you drink it every day?"

   "Exactly."

"How to do it?"

   "Don't you envy Kovacic?"

   "Yes, we envy Kovacic, but we can't blow up the submarine."

   At this time, his wine has sobered up.

"It's true that you can't blow it up, but you can drive it out. You just need to contact the people around you. Twenty people are enough. Just drive this submarine out of the Black Sea and the Mediterranean Sea. In the Atlantic Ocean, there will be The ship will pick you up." The other party said: "Each of you can get one million dollars, with this money, it is enough to go to the West to live the life you want to live."

   A million dollars! This is a number that Okhlopkov could not even imagine.

  Okhlopkov opened his eyes wide and looked at the man in front of him: "Are you an international arms dealer?"

   "You don't have to worry about this, as long as you agree, you can get half of the remuneration as an advance payment immediately, and you can get the other half when you drive the submarine to the Atlantic Ocean."

   "And then, will you throw us into the sea?" asked Okhlopkov.

  The international arms trade has always been bloody. Those arms dealers can do anything for money, so he must ask clearly.

  Even if one's own side drives the submarine out, can the other party keep its promise?

"Yes, there is indeed a possibility." The other party said, "Anyway, it doesn't make any sense for me to swear to guarantee your safety here, so it depends on your own choice. You can take a risk if you rack your brains with a bottle of wine, at least you have been paid in advance, that is the real deal, and the remaining half depends on your courage."

  Do you live in a daze of drunkenness every day, or do you fight hard? Take a gamble?

   "Aren't you afraid that if we get the money, we won't do anything for you, but will run away instead?"

   "It's possible. At that time, we will have to spend our energy chasing you. However, the remaining 500,000 hired killers are still enough."

   "Then there is one last problem left. Our base has no oil at all, and the oil in the submarine has also been drained. So, let alone the Mediterranean Sea, we can't even get out of the Black Sea."

"A few days later, there will be a comprehensive supply ship docking at your place, and then all the people on board will go down to have fun. That night, the nearby guards will also get drunk. You can take advantage of the night to fill up the submarine. "

  All the preparations have been made for them, so, what choice do they have next?

do my best!

  Their eyes said it all.

  In the villa, Qin Tao was very satisfied after listening to Xu Zhengyang's report: "Zhengyang, you did a great job. It seems that I can rest after I arrive. I can leave this kind of thing to you."

   This matter was originally what Qin Tao wanted to do, but in the end, Qin Tao didn't move, and handed over the job to Xu Zhengyang, who only met with him after putting on makeup.

   Fortunately, Xu Zhengyang finished it beautifully.

Xu Zhengyang smiled. If it was in the past, he would never have done such a thing, because it was completely different from his training. However, he has been influenced by Qin Tao for so long, and unconsciously, Already accustomed to using Qin Tao's principles of doing things.

  He believed that even if Qin Tao passed away, he would not be able to do better. However, is his change good or bad? Originally a traditional and upright person, Qin Tao forcibly led him astray.

   "It's a pity, we can't move surface ships, we can only move submarines. It would be great if we could bring out the warships of the Black Sea Fleet."

  Submarines are concealed. Whether they go out to patrol or stay in the base, they are still half-hidden.

Although some submarines will park directly on the pier outside, there are also many submarines that will directly enter the cavern. For example, domestic nuclear submarines all have one number. The outside world does not know how many there are. Know.

  The same is true for the current Kilo-class submarines.

If you continue to order from Lao Maozi, it is estimated to cost 200 million ships. Now, Qin Tao employs 20 people and spends 20 million US dollars. A Kilo-class submarine came back, and it was the old Maozi's own version. It was definitely a good deal.

  It is too wasteful for the Black Sea Fleet to stay here with Lao Maozi. Instead of constantly decommissioning, eliminating, and sealing up, it is better to give it to your own side.

However, it is enough to do this kind of thing once. Taking advantage of the fact that the ownership of the Black Sea Fleet has not been resolved, even if they find that a Kilo-class submarine is missing, they will not investigate much. It's time to feel bad.

  The only pity is that the Black Sea Fleet does not have nuclear submarines.

  Different from other fleets, the Black Sea Fleet is equivalent to operating in an inland sea. Even if it has access to the sea, it seldom goes out. Operating in the Black Sea, conventional submarines are more flexible than nuclear submarines.

   Can we do the same thing and get a nuclear submarine from another fleet?

   This thought flashed through Qin Tao's mind, and then was denied.

   It's not that easy. The reason why the submarines of the Black Sea Fleet can be brought back is because the Black Sea Fleet is in chaos now. If other fleets lose an active submarine, the responsibility is huge, and ordinary people cannot bear it.

  Even if Nikolai had a very good relationship with him, he would not dare to sell the nuclear submarine to him.

   Moreover, after getting it back, what about maintenance?

  The reason why the Kilo class is coming back now is because there are already two Kilo class submarines, so don't worry about various accessories. Other submarines don't have this kind of opportunity.

  Qin Tao was thinking about these things rapidly in his mind, and finally shook his head helplessly.

   After Okhlopkov returned, he mysteriously called his most trusted companions together.

  He was a little nervous.

"Now, I want to announce to you that you will be shot. If you have no courage, you can leave now. However, if you retreat after hearing my plan, you will not be able to leave this door at all. Will be stabbed to death by me!"

   As he spoke, Okhlopkov slammed a multifunctional saber on the table. As a submariner, although he couldn't get a gun, he still had no one to care about getting a saber for normal use.

Seeing Okhlopkov's appearance, several people suddenly softened. Although they haven't been paid for several years, the big guy has not been starved to death, and he still stays here drinking and dawdling. Will it be unworthy of things?

   "Of course, the risk is high, and the return is also high. As long as you nod and agree, you can get a deposit of 500,000 U.S. dollars, and when things are done, you can get another 500,000 U.S. dollars."

   "500,000 U.S. dollars? Doesn't it mean that each of us can share 20,000 to 30,000 U.S. dollars?" Someone immediately became excited.

  Twenty to thirty thousand dollars! What a huge sum of money that must be!

"no."

   The big guy looked at Okhlopkov in surprise, what is that? Do you want to eat the big head?

   "Looking at your prospects, each of you will get 500,000 first, and then 500,000 later!"

   per person?

   They gasped again.

   A total of one million, what a huge sum of money, can each of them get such a sum of money?

   "Do it, no matter what it is, murder and arson must be done, even if it's worth selling your soul to the devil, it's worth half a million!" Someone immediately nodded.

   Sure enough, money is good.

  Okhlopkov looked at the people present: "Since the big guys have agreed, then you can't go back on your word. Anyone who dares to inform, then wait to be shot in the head!"

   Nobody flinched.

  It's been three years, three years of hard life, now, I finally have a chance to make a fortune, what else can I say, do it!

   "Okhlopkov, just tell me what to do!"

   "Okay, then let me talk about it."

   Everyone's expressions became serious again.

  One million dollars is full of temptations, but this action is too risky.

"The next morning, our submarine disappeared, and it will definitely be found." A person said: "I suggest that we set a fire in the base, so that everyone will only focus on putting out the fire, and there will be no fire for the time being." If the submarine is found missing, we can sail silently, leave the Black Sea, and go into the strait after only one day.”

   "Yes, but how do we get across the strait?"

   "There are a lot of underwater listening equipment there, we can only stick to a merchant ship! Once we enter the Mediterranean Sea, we will be safe."

   "Yeah, that's the only way to do it. The Strait of Gibraltar is easy to say. We can use the ocean currents there to float directly. That's what the Germans did during World War II."

   "Okay, then let's get ready. From now on, at least two people will act together, and no one will be left alone!"

  Okhlopkov can finally relax. These people have not flinched. They all want to make a fortune. Although this mission is full of hardships and dangers, they are willing to fight with their lives!
