Chapter 1087 Tracking And Pursuit 6
Huo Shaoheng’s expression did not change when he heard that the fishermen who’d called the police had been killed. He didn’t even flinch. However, the hand holding the telescope trembled slightly.
He asked calmly, “Has the coordinate position of the fishing boat been determined yet?”
As long as the telephone on the fishing boat had been dialed here, the Nandou Satellite Navigation System had the tracking capability to easily locate them.
The intelligence analyst at the other end of the call said, “Yes, it has been sent to you.”
Huo Shaoheng took out a specialized sea navigation device and examined it, then compared it to their current position. He commanded, “Full rudder to the right in the nine o’clock position, 20 nautical miles, full speed ahead.”
Although he’d given his command in confidence, he also knew that it was not easy to locate a fishing boat on the vast sea. Situations at sea can change rapidly. Even if the position of the other party had been determined only a second ago, the position of the other party could change drastically in only a short time.
Furthermore, since that fishermen’s boat had been hijacked, there was no doubt that the other party had already removed the positioning device on the fishing boat, meaning they would be unable to track them again.
But until then, every second still counted. They had to take advantage of every second that they still had access to the boat’s location.
General Ji issued a warrant mandating that Hong Kangquan must be captured alive… Otherwise, they could have launched shore-based missiles directly from the naval base on the seaside of City C. They could have annihilated the fishing boat remotely.
It wouldn’t have mattered anyway because the fishermen had already been murdered by the enemy. Therefore in a sense, killing the Japanese onboard would also avenge the deaths of the fishermen.
…
Twenty-four speedboats carrying members of the heavily armed Special Operations Forces followed Huo Shaoheng’s boat. It was speeding forward rapidly, oscillating forward along with the tides, getting closer and closer to its target.
It was a pity that their speed boat had been moving in the wrong direction before. Originally, they were only seven or eight nautical miles away from their target, but now the distance had increased to about 20 nautical miles.
Of course, it wasn’t too late to turn around and catch up. After all, their speed boats were much faster than fishing boats. Nevertheless, by the time they saw the white fishing boat under the moonlight, it had sailed outside of the 12-nautical-mile territorial range of the Huaxia Empire.
Colonel Naganobu Sada of the Japanese SAT Special Task Force watched the four speedboats speeding up amid the oscillating waves and laughed. He waved at them as he shouted through a speaker on the fishing boat.
“Goodbye to you all! It’s been 12 nautical miles, you’re too far behind us now!”
The members of the Special Operations Forces on their speedboats were furious. They raised their fists at the little white boat in the distance!
Colonel Naganobu Sada was no coward. He certainly felt no need to hide, so he also raised his MP5SD submachine gun and waved it towards them menacingly. “We’re off now! Sayonara!” As he said this, he suddenly whistled.
Huo Shaoheng felt himself tense up. He looked up.
He saw dozens of Japanese speedboats quickly speeding through the vast sea and head towards the fishing boat where the members of the Japanese special task force, Ito, and Hong Kangquan were.
When he looked at the equipment, he instantly recognized that they were not ordinary speedboats. They were are all highly advanced military speed boats equipped with torpedoes.
Colonel Naganobu Sada used his men’s speed boats as a cover. Disembarking from the fishing boat, he jumped into the speedboat.
Huo Shaoheng and his men only had four speedboats. They were no match for the firepower of the Japanese speedboats! A Japanese speedboat close to them even launched a torpedo at them!
The water beneath them suddenly started billowing, and the next thing Huo Shaoheng knew, their speedboat was forcefully knocked over!
The three Special Operations Forces members on the speedboat were not injured, they merely fell overboard and into the water. They quickly swam away and climbed into the other three speedboats.
Colonel Naganobu Sada mirthfully watched them being thrown overboard with a telescope on the speedboat, and he couldn’t help but laugh gleefully.
“I knew the Huaxia Empire’s navy was garbage!”
“Let’s see what you guys can do beyond 12 nautical miles! Why don’t you drive your aircraft carrier over here!”
Members of the Japanese SAT Special Task Force also guffawed with mockery.
“None of you are a match against us in terms of naval battles!” Naganobu Sada pointed towards Huo Shaoheng’s direction, then pointed to himself. “Alright then, I’ve had enough fun with you for the moment. I’ll be getting going now! Sayonara!”
Huo Shaoheng’s speedboat didn’t have a torpedo function installed because the designers wanted to increase its speed. They never thought that this would come back and bite them. But since the Japanese were already here, did they really think they could escape from them that easily?
Huo Shaoheng was well prepared for something like this.
He sneered and said, “Who said we were going to have a naval battle? You have come into my territory, so I am the one calling the shots. I say that this battle doesn’t end until you are dead!” Then, slowly raising his hand and speaking into his walkie talkie, he said sullenly, “Drone troops! Prepare! Listen as I report the enemy’s coordinate positions!”
The dozens of Japanese speedboats in front of them had already turned around and were speeding towards Japanese territorial waters. At this moment, they suddenly felt the atmosphere tensing up. Something sinister and murderous was approaching them.
Several hypervigilant men held the guns in their hands and kept urging their comrades, “Go! Go!”
They looked up at the sky, instantly petrified by what they saw!
“Drone!”
“Drones from the Huaxia Empire!”
No matter how fast their speed boats were, how could they escape from drones flying in the air!? Ten minutes later, a densely packed cluster of drones appeared above them!
Autopilot military drones had always been dominated by high-altitude photography, target detection, and photo transmission, but they also had the ability to launch attacks at their targets.
At present, the strongest military drone on the Blue Star was the United States’ MQ-9 “Grim Reaper.”
This drone was equipped with electronic optics, an infrared system, low-light television, and a synthetic aperture radar system. It could carry a multi-spectral sighting system, as well as a laser-guided laser rangefinder and pointer. It has six weapon racks and could also fire the deadly “Hellfire” missile, which was known as the most destructive military drone ever developed by mankind.
This drone from the Huaxia Empire, known as the “Flying Dragon”, did not have as many fancy reconnaissance and mapping functions as the United States’ deadly “Grim Reaper” drone. It focused on airstrikes and could carry lightweight machine guns and ammunition, as well as various types of missiles. Its navigation system was interconnected and had highly precise airstrike capabilities.
However, in terms of dealing with these Japanese torpedo speed boats, Huo Shaoheng did not plan on directly destroying them with missiles. Instead, the drone’s precise navigation functions would be used to eliminate the SAT special task force members on the Japanese speedboat one by one.
“Flying Dragon No. 1 is preparing. The target is at the 11 o’clock position. Coordinates…”
“Flying Dragon No. 2 is preparing. The target is at the 2 o’clock position. Coordinates…”
The commanders of the group of autopilot drones were all very busy monitoring, confirming, and correcting the drone’s airstrike aim according to the footage captured by the drone. Once they knew that they had a clear target, they pushed the button and fired!
Precise navigation and pinpoint elimination could ensure that Hong Kangquan was not killed, but they could eliminate the other enemies one by one. This was the main reason why Huo Shaoheng wanted to use autopiloted drones.
The continuous popping sounds on the sea’s surface sounded just like the grim reaper relentlessly waving his sickle as he snatched lives away!
The members of the SAT Special Task Force on the Japanese speedboat hadn’t expected that the Huaxia Empire would send dozens of autopiloted drones to attack them. They were so shocked and enraged that they kept cursing their enemy profusely, but they knew there wasn’t much they could do about the situation.
The silver drone flashed by their speedboat. With every pass the drone made, a bullet hit an enemy agent in the chest!
The members of the SAT Special Forces on the Japanese speedboat couldn’t lift their heads due to heavy rain of bullets. Plus, the Japanese needed to protect Hong Kangquan and keep him safe. They had specific orders to capture him alive, so the casualties they suffered while protecting him were even more severe.
Still, the Japanese did everything they could to bring Hong Kangquan back to Japan. More than a hundred of Japan’s most elite SAT Special Task Force members died instantly, but they still fought back hard in the face of death and kept rushing towards their enemy as if on suicide missions.
The drone chased after them closely. Every time a shot was fired, a member of the Japanese Special Task Force fell into the water.
Huo Shaoheng followed closely with their speedboats, firing their sniper rifles and drones in concert.
For a moment, the sea was transformed into a scary red massacre that reeked of blood and had a murderous vibe to it.
The members of the Special Operation Forces were relentless and showed no mercy. Despite the fact that autopilot drones were already firing highly precise airstrikes on the individual Japanese naval soldiers, the Special Operation Forces all fired even more shots to ensure that the enemy was truly dead.
The Japanese SAT Special Task Force was stupefied by the deadly precision of the drones. Only after recovering from their state of shock did they start launching their counterattack.
They also had superb sniper skills. With the cooperation of their teammates, they quickly struck back at the drones.
The remaining drones quickly took off. Huo Shaoheng immediately directed his teammates to cast electromagnetic interference to help the drone disrupt the aim of the sniper rifles. The autopilot drones swooped down from the clouds and launched even more destructive attacks on the enemy below.
A rain of gunfire once again showered down on the Japanese Special Task Forces’ speedboats.
Both sides were busy launching heavy attacks on their enemy.
“Sir! The 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone is ahead. When we reach it, we will be in Japanese territory. Do you want to pursue them all the way there?”
To be precise, just 10 nautical miles ahead of them was the exclusive economic zone in Japanese waters.
Based on the speed of their speedboat, they would break into Japan’s exclusive economic zone in just a few minutes.
