Just as Yuan Yi and his men were leading the fleet toward the Arabian Sea.
The USS Truro aircraft carrier, which was stationed in the Arabian Sea and the Red Sea, was attacked by missiles by armed groups for the second time.
There is currently no specific information regarding secondary damage to the USS Truo aircraft carrier.
However, the incident has now escalated and is causing a great uproar internationally.
Some people say that this Sierra armed group is courting death.
Of course, some people applauded this armed group.
Regardless, this armed group is the only one that dared to provoke their navy after Emily's rise to power.
And they even directly attacked the country whose aircraft carrier they were from.
·······
On the aircraft carrier USS Fujian.
Yuan Yi has been transferred by helicopter from the Lookout One back to the Fujian aircraft carrier.
Their main task during this period was sailing.
Yuan Yi had nothing to do on the Lookout One, so he returned to the aircraft carrier.
More than twenty days have passed since they left Emily's coastal waters.
They have now reached the Indian Ocean and are marching towards the Arabian Sea.
"I've heard there are quite a few pirates around here?"
Yuan Yi sat listlessly in the aircraft carrier's cockpit, looking out at the vast ocean through binoculars.
Liu Minhua and Li Jun were also sitting here.
"There are quite a few; they are usually fishermen."
"When a merchant ship passes by, we'll hop on a speedboat, grab an AK, and become pirates!"
"There's no other way, this place is too poor!"
A fleeting look of reminiscence crossed Li Jun's face as he spoke.
"Captain, did you come here to provide escort before?"
Liu Minhua stared at the expression on Li Jun's face and asked.
"Yes, I was originally the captain of the Type 052 destroyer, and I spent two years escorting ships in the Gulf of Aden with the fleet."
"He was later transferred to serve as captain of a 10,000-ton destroyer."
"Later, I was transferred to aircraft carriers such as the Liaoning and Shandong for training."
"When the third aircraft carrier came out, he was directly transferred here to serve as its captain."
"Actually, it hasn't been many years."
Indeed, as Li Jun said, among the six aircraft carriers currently equipped by our mother.
The Liaoning Province ship, which was originally commissioned, has served the longest, now at thirteen years.
The Shandong-made aircraft carrier has been in service for six years.
This is the third year that the Fujian Provincial Express has been launched, while the Beijing Express, the Shanghai Express, and the Henan Provincial Express have followed in a line.
Yuan Yi turned to look at Li Jun.
"Captain, have you ever fought pirates?"
"Of course we fought them. The two years we spent escorting ships were the time when the pirates were at their most rampant here."
“Back then, we didn’t have the prestige we have now. Not only our country’s merchant ships, but any merchant ship in the world that was being targeted rarely had a chance to escape.”
At this moment, Yuan Yi became interested.
He placed the binoculars directly on the table and turned to look at Li Jun.
"Captain, tell us about it!"
To be honest, Yuan Yi had never seen pirates in person. In his previous life, he had only seen the organization online or in movies.
I especially remember the movie "Operation Red Sea"!
The evacuation of overseas Chinese, the interception of pirates, and the rescue of hostages were all incredibly exciting for him, even though he was not in the entertainment industry.
I heard that the story was adapted from a true event.
Now that there's someone who's been personally involved, how could we possibly let this opportunity pass?
Liu Minhua was also very curious at this point.
He is a pilot who transitioned from land-based to sea-based operations.
He used to be an ace pilot in an air force division, but later switched to carrier-based aircraft piloting.
This year marks nearly fifteen years since his flight incident.
He is in his thirties and has been serving in the Air Force since graduating from aviation academy.
Previously, I flew domestically, and later, when I came to the aircraft carrier, I spent most of my time training.
Training in coastal waters, training in the open sea, and so on.
He also did not go to the Indian Ocean or the Gulf of Aden.
However, having served in the military for so many years, he had learned about the matter from military newspapers.
But I'm also very curious about what happened back then.
After all, military reports won't give you a detailed explanation of every single thing that happens.
Looking at the two people's eyes brimming with curiosity, Li Jun smiled helplessly.
After taking a sip of water from the thermos I had on hand, I adjusted my sitting posture.
"I was the captain of ship No. 177 at the time, and our political commissar was also the political commissar of ship No. 177."
As Li Jun spoke, he pointed to the political commissar who was reading a book next to the cockpit.
The political commissar seemed to sense Li Jun's gaze and looked up.
"What? Are you talking badly about me?" the political commissar said with a smile.
"How could I dare!"
"This isn't our captain recounting your heroic deeds during the escort missions in the Gulf of Aden!!"
Yuan Yi said to the political commissar with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the political commissar stopped reading and walked over to sit down next to the three of them.
"Hey, don't tell."
"Back then, this place wasn't as peaceful as it is now."
"Although pirates still exist, they are not as rampant as before!"
“Before, whenever there was a shopping mall here, you could see that there were always a dozen or even dozens of speedboats following behind!!”
"They took a fishing net and directly wrapped it around your engine blades."
"We'll leave you anchored at sea, and then we'll start boarding the ship with guns in hand."
