Chapter 228 Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier, number CV-63!
Time flies, and soon it is the second week of November.
Saturday.
This is Seattle, a scenic city and also one of the most important port cities in the Pacific region of the United States.
Since they had mentioned last time that they wanted to visit Seattle, Lucy and Lu Ze took advantage of this weekend and took a short flight to arrive here.
However, Lucy was thinking about having a good time, while Lu Ze was thinking about the "aircraft carrier".
However, Lu Ze did not rush to take action, but honestly accompanied Lucy to stroll around here, as if waiting for that "rare" opportunity.
After all, he was not going to a tourist attraction, but a heavily guarded military port, or even a ship parking area in a shipyard.
This place is difficult to enter through conventional channels, not to mention if you want to go in and visit openly. Everything needs to be carefully planned.
Looking at Lucy blowing bubbles carefreely over there, Lu Ze smiled and said, "Lucy, stay here. I'll buy you an ice cream."
"Okay, go ahead!" Lucy waved her hand and continued to blow bubbles to tease the seagulls around her.
Walking towards the ice cream stand, Lu Ze thought to himself: "It would be better to get some information first, so that we can determine the specific implementation plan later."
Although he knew that the "USS Kitty Hawk" was stored in the Bremerton Naval Base in Seattle, the entire naval base was so large, who knew where this thing was placed?
Even if I use the 'Invisibility Cloak', I can only stay hidden for 30 minutes, so I have to make some preparations in advance to prevent any unexpected situations.
After a while.
On the light screen.
A middle-aged white man wearing a jacket, his body as strong as Schwarzenegger in the Terminator movie, holding a can of beer in his hand, but his face was expressionless.
The first impression everyone had when they saw it was that this person was not someone they would be easy to mess with.
Even the usually lazy gang members unconsciously moved away when they saw him, for fear that he would pull out a Gatling gun from somewhere and start firing.
As people who are involved in the underworld, they know very well that people with this kind of face are either from the FBI or the CIA. These thugs smoke too much and have nothing to do, so even if they die, the gangs probably won't bother to collect their bodies.
This sturdy man that everyone fears is the "bionic robot" that Lu Ze exchanged a few days ago.
【Bionic Robot: Johnson Brown! 】
[Age: 32 years old. 】
[Skills: conventional vehicle driving, firearms proficiency, combat proficiency.]
He has now exchanged for three robots, two of which are pilots who are proficient in flying various flying tools and mainly serve as captains of business jets.
This bionic robot named 'Johnson Brown' acts as a driver or bodyguard within the organization.
Of course, Lu Ze has basically pushed the physical fitness of these people to the upper limit, and each of them is almost at the pinnacle of human physical strength.
If they were allowed to represent Daxia in the Olympic Games one day, they would probably be able to directly dominate several events.
"Luckily I got the 'bionic robot' reward in time, otherwise I would have to recall the 'doll' again." Lu Ze muttered to himself.
Although the prize given in that lottery was not a gold one, it was indeed what he needed most at that time.
In this way, the puppet can stay in Africa for one or two more days instead of returning to him on the same day.
After delivering the supplies, he also learned some information through the puppet, that is, Buller had already started the work with full force, and everyone was working hard to learn the local indigenous language.
He did not act hastily, and after obtaining supplies, he did not recruit soldiers and horses, but instead set up camp.
Lu Ze's words "become king slowly, store up food, and build high walls" had a great impact on him.
After all, he knew that it was still too far-fetched to talk about changing the entire Burkina Faso. What they had to do first was to allow the local people to survive, and then to let them know what the enemy was and what to do.
He had read countless times in various books about how Sankara failed, and he had also reviewed it countless times in his mind during this period of time. He knew very clearly what he should and should not do.
Not only did Buhler lead dozens of cadres to dig wells and reclaim wasteland, he also helped the villagers to improve their planting methods. For those who were really having a hard time, Buhler would also provide timely assistance.
Of course, the most important thing is to lead these people out of poverty rather than relying on free aid provided by the materials brought by the organization.
In this case, Buller felt that he was actually harming these people, making them lose the ability to climb up, and even forget what a "sense of crisis" was, and they would just become people who lived a life of idleness and waiting to die.
Buller understood that this step should not be too big.
No matter how powerful a person's mind is, he still needs to eat. If the food problem is not solved, he will not be able to sleep or eat well.
Later they will build a school in the village, and each cadre will give public lectures on what he or she is good at. At the same time, they will gradually arm the minds of these villagers and let them know what they want to do.
Leading these people to change the whole of Burkina Faso is a long road, but it is also the most correct one.
Buhler firmly believed that he would keep going.
These thoughts flashed through Lu Ze's mind quickly, and he took the ice cream from the stall owner.
He couldn't help but sigh: "This guy Buhler is going to take a completely new path."
Today, perhaps no one in the world can teach Buhler anything, because he is carrying out the greatest cause in the poorest continent in the world.
What Lu Ze could do was to use the foresight of future generations to provide Buhler with some necessary guidance so that he would not go down a path that might have no future.
As for the rest, it depends on how far Buller can go.
Then, Lu Ze looked at another small screen on the screen, which was showing a location in a very remote corner of the Pacific Ocean.
This is the puppet's current location, carrying out a secret mission assigned by Lu Ze.
An important task to make advance preparations for the replication of the aircraft carrier.
"Have we arrived here so soon?"
"It seems I have to act quickly to avoid wasting precious time." He was shocked.
When Lu Ze was thinking about this.
The 'strong man' walked directly to the side of the Bremerton Naval Base, which was the highest terrain around and he could look down into the distance.
As a 'bionic robot', its eyesight is naturally excellent, and the image on the light screen began to continuously enlarge and become clearer and clearer.
You can directly see that on the sea surface seven or eight kilometers away, dozens of ships are densely arranged, as if they were abandoned here like "garbage".
Gazing at this spectacular scene, it looked both beautiful and tragic under the sunlight.
"This ship is not." "That one is not where exactly?" Lu Ze kept selecting, secretly feeling sorry.
Because the number of these ships was so huge, he didn't even realize where his target was for a moment.
Most of the ships here were retired after decades of service by the Eagle Sauce. Their old age can be seen from the rust on them.
These ships seemed to be telling the glory of their dominance in the world in the last century, but were tragically eliminated due to the ruthless history and ended their mission hastily in this new era.
Not to mention the Arleigh Burke-class destroyers which are in their prime, even the Ticonderoga-class cruisers which have begun to be gradually retired can only be found here.
As for those "Perry-class" frigates, although they exist, they do not have much value in copying, and even making additional copies of them would be a waste. Daxia's Type 054A frigate is much more useful than this thing, and it was launched several years ago.
Even the Type 056 light frigate will be launched in two years, which will be enough to meet all the needs of Daxia's escort. There is no need for him to go far away and copy the "Perry class".
Just as he was about to continue searching, he unknowingly returned to Lucy with the ice cream.
Seeing Lu Ze coming back, Lucy handed him a camera and stood in front of a strange building and said, "Lu Ze, take a picture for me!"
Behind her was a building that looked like a 'UFO' hanging high in the air.
This is Seattle's famous attraction, the Space Needle.
It is equivalent to the slender waist of Daxia Guangcheng, or a landmark building like the Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai. It is very famous in the United States and can be said to be a must-visit place when visiting Seattle.
However, compared with the 'Slender Waist' and the 'Oriental Pearl', the size of this thing seems a bit 'exquisite and short'.
It was only 184 meters high, so it was no wonder that Lu Ze didn't have much impression of this attraction.
"Lucy, move a little to the right." Lu Ze squatted on the ground, holding the camera and slowly focusing.
He is best at using the 1/3 composition rule, which is to let Lucy stand in the right 1/3 of the picture. This can better highlight the tension of the entire photo and make the photo look better.
"Okay." Lucy nodded.
Although she is already very beautiful, no woman would refuse to make herself look more beautiful in photos.
At this time.
Lu Ze had just pressed the flash when suddenly an irrepressible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the hand holding the camera couldn't help but tremble slightly.
At this moment.
On the screen of his eyeballs, the 'bionic robot' was looking out, firmly locking onto a huge ship.
This ship alone is more than ten times the size of the ship next to it, and can only be parked in the most remote corner to accommodate its terrifying size.
The straight deck and various features all told him who this ship was.
A string of characters "CV-63" is engraved on its bridge number!
"I found you!" Lu Ze's joy was so overwhelming that he didn't care about taking pictures at all.
CV is the abbreviation of carrier, which means aircraft carrier.
And number 63 corresponds to the conventional-powered aircraft carrier "Kitty Hawk".
After this guy retired a few months ago, he was quietly transported to the Bremerton Naval Base for storage.
He stared at the USS Kitty Hawk nervously and memorized its direction and coordinates.
"Wait for me to save you." A smile rose in Lu Ze's heart.
He used the word salvation to describe it, which was not an exaggeration at all.
After all, if nothing unexpected happens, the "Kitty Hawk" will be sold and dismantled by the Eagle Sauce at a price of one cent in 22. At that time, this old ship that has made great contributions to the Eagle Sauce will be dismantled and recycled like scrap.
Now if Lu Ze could copy it, he could give the technology to Daxia, and even bring the "real Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier" to Daxia.
Wouldn't that just give it a 'new lease of life'?
As for the issue of turning the gun against the Eagle Sauce, he believed that the "Kitty Hawk" should not mind.
however.
Just when Lu Ze was secretly delighted, Lucy saw him smiling foolishly and could not help but quietly walk to his side.
He took the camera from his hand and looked at it carefully, with a look of shock and anger on his face.
Only see.
On the screen, Lucy's beautiful face only showed half of her face.
The focus wasn't even on her face, but on the pigeons on the railing next to her.
Looking at this pigeon, everyone will have a question, which is: "Why is this pigeon so big?" This is a world problem.
Lucy deleted the ugly photo immediately and angrily slapped Lu Ze: "??? What were you taking a photo of just now!"
But she was reluctant to use too much strength, as if she was afraid of hurting him.
But Lucy was still a little unhappy. She said you would take pictures of herself, so why did you take pictures of pigeons?
"My hand just cramped. I'll take another picture for you. No, a set!" Lu Ze rubbed her head.
Not to mention shooting a set, even shooting for a whole day is nothing!
After all, as long as we find the "Kitty Hawk" aircraft carrier, the mission will be half successful.
That night.
A star hotel in Seattle.
Looking at the clock hanging on the wall, it had slowly reached one o'clock in the morning.
Lu Ze opened his eyes, stood up and looked at Lucy who was sleeping in the bed next to him. After a few minutes, she still didn't react at all.
Even picking up a strand of hair and tickling her nose failed to wake Lucy up.
"It looks like he's fast asleep. So let's get started!!"
After living with Lucy for the past month, Lu Ze could tell that once this girl fell asleep, you couldn’t wake her up even if there was a fire.
Thinking of this, Lu Ze tiptoed out the door quickly, with only one thought in his mind.
"Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier, just wait for me!"
"I'll copy you right now!!"
PS: Please give me a monthly ticket
