On their last attempt to contact them, they finally got through. Chang Yin breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that they were alright, but then he learned that they had just been surrounded by three US warships, and his heart jumped into his throat.
He immediately led other warships to provide support.
US warships here
"What's going on? Why can't the warships move forward?"
Albert felt a surge of anger with nowhere to vent it, but this was not the time to lose his temper.
"Colonel, the warship is currently missing three of its most important parts. Without those parts, the warship cannot move forward."
"What? A part is missing? How is that possible?"
"It's true, Colonel."
"Then install the spare. I think you should have done a good job of ensuring the smooth sailing of the warship before departure."
The repairman lowered his head in shame. "Colonel, we don't have these three parts here."
"What?"
Before Albert could explode, a mechanic quickly explained, "Colonel, these three parts are the most important components on the warship, but also the least likely to be damaged. We never expected those parts to suddenly fall off."
Albert's gaze swept past the three mechanics and landed on the staff in the control room.
Aside from the maintenance engineers, only these few people responsible for the ship's navigation knew about its structure.
The group understood immediately upon seeing Albert's gaze and quickly defended themselves.
"Colonel Albert, please trust us. We would never do anything against the United States. Besides, we are not familiar with the construction of warships at all. Furthermore, if we had a problem, would the operators of all three warships malfunction simultaneously?"
Albert knew the odds were slim, but the facts were undeniable. Whom should he believe?
As the shark rammed into the ship, it occasionally rocked on the sea, but otherwise there was nothing unusual.
Oda and Fujino stepped forward. "Mr. Albert, I think this must be the work of those people in China. How could our warship suddenly break down like this? It's too much of a coincidence."
Albert naturally had many other thoughts, but whatever he thought, the most pressing issue was getting the warships operational.
"Can you make those parts on-site?"
"These parts are all manufactured using machine tools, and we don't have the right tools on hand right now."
Albert...
This opponent is too ruthless; they just dumped them right in the middle of the shark swarm, as if they were afraid they'd live even a day longer. But he didn't want to die.
Looking at the school of sharks at sea, Albert had an idea.
