Soviet Union 1991

First update

Just a few weeks before the Galaxy's departure, no one noticed the Soviet Pacific Fleet's sudden visit to India. The Soviet Union claimed that this was a normal naval exchange between India and the Soviet Union. Of course, no one will connect the incident of the Soviet Union's visit with the subsequent incident of the United States taking action against the Galaxy. Only those high-level Soviet officials who knew the inside story knew the real secret behind this so-called naval exchange.

Warm ocean currents bring moist sea breezes, and the Indian Ocean is calm, with only bright sunshine and endless blue waters. The Bank sailing in the Gulf is like a lone leaf, sailing happily in the blue sea. After passing through the Strait of Malacca and leaving Singapore, the Galaxy went straight to its destination, Kuwait. However, Captain Zhang Rude's face was not as calm as this calm sea, but instead shrouded in an ugly haze.

Just a few days before his departure, military leaders made a special trip to Zhang Rude. The other party told him to be careful when driving in the Gulf area and to contact him immediately if he encountered any unexpected situation. He also stayed in the Gulf area. of the Soviet fleet, they will provide you with the help you need.

When Zhang Rude asked again what happened, the military region leaders chose to remain silent. He could only tell Zhang Rude that even he was just conveying orders from his superiors. Even a military region leader is not qualified to intervene in these matters, let alone a small captain like Zhang Rude?

However, an ominous premonition filled Zhang Rude's heart. He increasingly felt that there were ulterior secrets and traps waiting for him behind this ocean voyage.

Mi Junxi, who serves as Dafu, is watching every move around the Galaxy, because they had received strict orders from the captain before, and no matter what problems occurred, they must report to him as soon as possible. Although what the crew said to the captain was somewhat baffling. But he still faithfully carried out his orders.

Suddenly, Mi Junxi noticed that a US military helicopter quietly appeared behind the Galaxy, like a hyena watching its prey, staring at the direction of the Galaxy. Although it was common for American armed helicopters to appear in the Gulf area, Mi Junxi still felt something was wrong, and he reported the situation to Zhang Rude immediately.

"What did you say? An American helicopter appeared behind us?" Zhang Rude's worries became reality at this moment, he repeated. "Are you sure this US military helicopter is coming towards us? It's not just passing by?"

"Captain, I'm very sure. They have been keeping a close distance from us, and they are definitely coming towards us." The Mi Army looked at the helicopter with joy and suddenly felt shuddering. The American helicopter was coming towards me. Do they want to hijack this ship?

Mi Junxi's idea was quickly realized. The American helicopter began to approach the Galaxy, and flew over the Galaxy, circling at a low altitude only a dozen meters away from the mast. The helicopter's hatch was opened, and a camera was taking a bird's-eye view of the Galaxy. Here comes a 360-degree all-round shooting.

At this point it was obvious that the American helicopters were heading for the Galaxy. Zhang Rude made a prompt decision and immediately used the communication method provided to him by the leaders of the military region at the time, and used a special channel to contact the Soviet fleet.

Just when Zhang Rude was hesitant and didn't know how to speak, the other party replied in pure Mandarin, "This is the Red Ukraine of the Pacific Fleet. I am Dranov, the translator of this ship. Are you Mr. Zhang Rude, the Chinese captain?" "

"I am Captain Zhang Rude." Zhang Rude was a little surprised and surprised when he heard the other party's reply in Chinese.

"Mr. Zhang Rude. Can you tell us about the current situation?" The other party asked again. It may be that the communication signal is not good. The other party repeated it again and asked Zhang Rude to confirm whether he could hear his reply.

"Of course we can hear it. The situation is like this. American helicopters are circling around us and monitoring us. We don't know what their purpose is." Zhang Rude's voice was trembling, and he had to suppress the nervousness in his heart to answer Dela Nov's question.

On the Red Ukraine, the translator translated Zhang Rude's words to his captain. After listening to the translator's statement, the captain thought silently for a while before replying, "The Americans have adopted surveillance methods. . I’m afraid the next step is to send ships in. After all, such a cargo ship has no resistance in front of American warships. Please tell the Chinese captain that if the United States talks to you, please try to delay it. Our fleet is coming towards you, please. Report your location."

Zhang Rude quickly reported his position to the Soviet captain. And they tried their best to slow down the speed and delay it. Sure enough, an hour later, the pilot on the helicopter contacted Captain Zhang Rude through the vhf16 channel. The other party arrogantly stated that the Galaxy must report to him the ship's name, course, speed, port of registry, and Freight status and destination port.

Because there was support from the Soviet army behind him, Captain Zhang Rude also spoke very forcefully. He righteously condemned the helicopter pilot in English, "This is a Chinese cargo ship. We have no right or obligation to report to the Americans." In our situation, who is your commander? Ask him to come and talk to me. Or do American parents not teach their children what education is?”

However, the pilot still kept repeating, "This is the US Navy. We order you to report the situation of your cargo ship, otherwise don't blame us for taking tough measures."

"You can report, but we must get a reply from your superiors. You said you are the US Navy, and I said you are a Somali pirate!" Zhang Rude's reply and attitude were tough enough, "And taking tough actions against a country's cargo ship in public waters is an act of declaring war. You'd better think about it before you say this."

Zhang Rude saw that the US military did not dare to take action directly, and those words were just bluffing. That's why he dared to make such a bold reply.

Sure enough, the helicopter pilot was forced to report the situation here to the headquarters first, and then take action. He raised his middle finger to the Galaxy and said viciously, "Humph, you Chinese will have a lot of bad luck later." (To be continued.)
