A nation's industrial development begins with junior engineers.

"The sun sets in the west, its glow rosy; soldiers practice target shooting..."

The three destroyers towed the behemoth slowly back to camp. The last flagship, 101, was a little late and reluctantly stayed behind to bring up the rear. However, it had a bunch of lifeboats hanging behind it, just like a mother duck with her ducklings.

As for Comrade Jin Guang's three cement boats, humph! They're too advanced; it's inconvenient for outsiders to board them...

Well, actually it's too heavy, it can't run fast at all. Everyone else has already started catching dumplings, and this boat is still swaying halfway through the journey.

Also, the deck of the cement ship was damaged by the continuous firing of the "sea snipes," causing a series of large cracks. Comrade Jin Guang was worried that if there were a few more people on board, the ship might break apart halfway through the journey...

In addition, the target ship, after circling around again, actually made a sharp turn and sailed back on its own, completely unharmed.

It ran quite fast, sometimes running alongside the cement ship, sometimes darting off to dart behind the four powerful ships, like a mischievous puppy. It was the flames on its body that made the overwater commander hanging behind the 101 flagship avoid it at all costs…

Perhaps it was thanking this big, clumsy guy for taking a bullet for it?

Zhao Bin counted on his fingers how much money he had saved today, waiting for the target ship to run out of fuel.

Comrade Jin Guang was considering the possibility of using the "fire ox formation" at sea.

Regardless of whether you were a rear admiral or a mere general, the naval soldiers' attention was completely drawn to that massive warship. The ordinary sailors who had fallen into the water were all taken to the deck; as for the officers, well, they had lifeboats, so as long as they didn't die, they were fine hanging on the stern…

But there are always people who are more concerned about this.

Major generals, colonels, and lieutenant colonels were captured. This is quite remarkable, considering that in the past few years, they've only caught small fry since the relocation of those officers. The timing of these high-ranking officials' relocations was extremely precise, and they haven't really caught many on the battlefield.

The people in the team didn't care about these things, but the comrades in the relevant departments dared not slack off in the slightest, and their spirits were on high alert. Even when the navy was unusually generous and held a victory celebration banquet, they had no interest in joining in the fun and plunged straight into the interrogation work.

After the interrogation, the results were astonishing. The high-ranking officers of the proposed fleet were all there.

"Yes, right! Oh, wait, there was also a vice commander and his faction, who you sent to the bottom of the water to feed the fish..."

"That shouldn't be the case. According to wartime management regulations, even if your superiors value this kind of surprise attack, it shouldn't require the entire fleet's top officers to go into battle, right?"

The adjutant shrugged helplessly and said, “Sir, you have to understand, we’re not like you guys. When you fight, you charge forward with a roar, afraid of being too slow and missing out on medals. But us? We just take it easy, like monks ringing the bell every day… And our fleet has a rule: once we go to sea and complete a mission, we don’t have to go out again for three months. This operation looks pretty big; everyone’s thinking those assault teams that go ashore will keep you busy for a while…”

"So, your fleet's high-ranking officers thought this was an easy and lucrative job, so they all went?"

"Yes, that's exactly it!"

The two professionals conducting the interrogation exchanged a glance. What the hell was this? A single slingshot wiped out an entire fleet.

"It feels like a dream," the young interrogator said, his mind reeling from images of Zhu Zhiwu repelling the Qin army and Mozi stopping Chu's attack on Song...

"Alright, you've confessed everything you need to, comrade. Uncuff me, and give me a cigarette while you're at it..." the adjutant said.

"Hey, who said we're comrades!" The young interrogator was furious and slammed his hand on the table as he stood up.

The adjutant looked at the young man, smiled slightly, his eyes filled with the weariness of someone who had experienced many hardships, yet also revealing a hint of expectation.

"Could you pass a message to the higher-ups? 'Deep Sea' has surfaced and requests to rejoin the team..."

?

What is that? The young man was completely baffled.

The older interrogator stood up and excitedly patted the young man beside him: "Xiao Liu, take this statement to the team leader and ask the deputy team leader to come over as well!"

"Yes!"

The elderly interrogator walked over to the adjutant, unlocked his handcuffs himself, and rubbed the bruises on the adjutant's hands with his rough, calloused hands.

Then he took out a white cigarette and put it in the adjutant's mouth.

"The moon is obscured by clouds above Mount Emei"

The adjutant paused, then exhaled a puff of smoke.

"The pines are shrouded in mist before Baoguo Temple!"

A series of hurried footsteps echoed at the door of the interrogation room. Just as the adjutant uttered the second line of the couplet, the deputy team leader, who had rushed over, also appeared in front of them.

"The path to Mount Emei is hidden by green bamboos~~" The deputy team leader looked at the adjutant, his lips trembled for a moment, and then said a few words hidden deep in his memory.

Plop, plop, a series of water droplets appeared on the adjutant's face: "A gentle breeze caresses the leaves, protecting the golden summit!"

"Going home?"

"Go home!"

……

Regardless of the interrogation information obtained from the relevant personnel here, Comrade Jin Guang's combat report still needs to be written.

A speech before the victory celebration banquet is also essential.

"On behalf of all officers and soldiers, I extend my warmest congratulations to all comrades who participated in the battle today! You have once again defended the motherland's maritime borders..."

These words made the commanders and soldiers of the "Four Great Warriors" blush. It seemed like they had just driven their old buddies at high speed for a bit, and now they were about to be caught in the crossfire. Alas, they felt unworthy of such praise...

The comrades from Factory 331 on the three cement-carrying test ships stood tall and proud.

That's right, hehehe, who says scholars are useless? I just stretched out my finger and pressed a button on the boat, and I brought "justice from heaven" upon those guys!

Mom, I have made it!

Zhao Bin then ran to Comrade Jin Guang's office and brazenly occupied the secure telephone.

"Jiang Gong, Jiang Gong, answer the phone quickly!"

Jiang Xia had just finished communicating with the people from the Sijiucheng Automobile Factory when Secretary Liu came straight to him.

Upon seeing Jiang Xia, Secretary Liu jumped onto him with a loud "Aww~~": "Brother, brother, you've got it!"

"What's wrong with your head, you idiot! Great victory! Great victory!"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but grab Jiang Xia's head and try to kiss it...

Jiang Xia was horrified. "Damn it, is my head a chicken leg?"

Fortunately, Old Wang was following behind and quickly threw the octopus-like Secretary Liu out.

"Let's go to the confidential room; this is the only place to hear this news..."

"Oh, hey, you're done with your work?"

"No, the cleanup work has been handed over to others. I only have one task now..."

"okay!"

Jiang Xia didn't ask any more questions, pushed open the door and walked straight out.

The afternoon sun was warm and gentle, shining on Jiang Xia and creating a halo around him.

Looking at Jiang Xia, who was walking briskly in front of him, the old man inexplicably recalled their earlier conversation.

"Three paths, which one do you choose?"

Haha, it seems you've already chosen your path!
