Chapter 2097： Aegean Sea

Athens, far behind by the exploratory fleet, has become a black line where the sea and the sky meet.

As the exploratory fleet gradually penetrated into the Mediterranean, the temperature gradually became warmer, not as cold as it was in Athens. This is the weather that should be expected in the Mediterranean in winter.

From the port of Piraeus to the Strait of Andykihira, there is still a long distance, exploring the fleet and sailing for a while.

During this period, the exploratory fleet will sail in the Aegean Sea until it crosses the Strait of Andykihira.

The Aegean Sea is a blue ocean in the east and south of the Greek peninsula. It is not only the cradle of Western European civilization, but also a sea with countless myths, especially romantic love stories.

For tourists from all over the world, sailing in this azure sea by boat is even more a symbol of romance.

The sky is clear, the sun is shining, the sea is clear and quiet, as blue as the sky, the coastline is tortuous, the harbor is numerous, the islands are dotted, and the scenery is extremely beautiful.

No one wants to miss this picturesque scenery.

When the exploratory fleet entered a normal cruising state and began to sail at a constant speed, except for the pilots of each ship, everyone else came out of the cabin and came to the deck to enjoy the beautiful sea scenery.

Ye Tian is the same. He is standing at the forefront of the flying bridge deck of the Blue Princess, standing against a railing, bathing in the sea breeze, and admiring the sea that has nurtured countless ancient Greek myths.

On this beautiful sea, there seems to be a beautiful and moving harp sound, which slowly blows in with the sea breeze and blows into everyone's ears.

The sound of the piano can calm the angry Poseidon and stop making troubles, can make Hera the jealous queen tolerant, and can also make the gloomy Hades smile brightly.

The sound of the piano stroked the tall olive trees on the island, sending people the laughter of the goddess Athena, and the countless seabirds circling and dancing in the sky were singing happily in response to the moving sound of the piano.

Suddenly, an annoying cell phone ringing rang, shattering this beautiful mood and also awakened the intoxicated Ye Tian.

He shook his head slightly in annoyance, then took out his cell phone and looked at it. The call was made by the US ambassador to Greece and had to answer it.

As the phone was connected, the other party's voice came over.

"Good afternoon, Steven, where is your fleet? Is the voyage going well?"

"Mr. Ambassador, good afternoon, our exploratory fleet has left the port of Piraeus. This will be sailing on the Aegean Sea. Everything is going well without any trouble."

Ye Tian said with a smile, and said something polite to the other party.

"Everything is going well, Steven, at your request, we have contacted the relevant person in the US North Atlantic Fleet and stated your request to the other party.

The other party made a decision after some research. During the exploration of the ancient Roman shipwreck treasure, if necessary, you can contact the North Atlantic Fleet to request military support or protection.

You are an American company with all American employees and you have contributed a large amount of tax to the American government. The American military has the responsibility and obligation to protect your interests from infringement.

The Bataan amphibious assault ship and an integrated supply ship belonging to the North Atlantic Fleet are cruising in the Mediterranean waters, just off the island of Malta, which can protect you.

In addition, there is a nuclear submarine cruising below the surface of the Mediterranean Sea. When necessary, it can also appear as a deterrent to deter your enemies.

Of course, if you want to instigate those guys from the North Atlantic Fleet, you still have to pay some price. Specifically, if you both negotiate on your own, we will not participate."

"That couldn't be better, Mr. Ambassador, with the support of the US North Atlantic Fleet, we are relieved a lot, and we are more confident in this exploration of the shipwreck treasure."

"I hope you will be successful, find that ancient Roman shipwreck treasure, and create miracles again"

After a few more conversations, the two parties ended the call.

Subsequently, the US ambassador to Greece sent over the contact information of several senior generals of the North Atlantic Fleet.

While receiving these messages, Ye Tian couldn't help but look back at the annoying tails behind the exploratory fleet, with a cold smile on his mouth.

Fools, just keep following and see what you get in the end.

Next, Ye Tian sent Matisse the contact information of relevant persons in the North Atlantic Fleet, asking him to start the relationship in the army, to greet those American generals, and to make some preparations.

Afterwards, I can come forward and negotiate deals with those guys.

Based on the experience of dealing with several times in the past, those American soldiers are not good at them. They have a big appetite. It is impossible to count on those greedy guys for help.

After everything is settled, after the fleet arrives at the target sea area and begins exploration operations, if there is a real need, it can contact each other at any time and let those American soldiers come out to solve some problems.

Some of the troubles mentioned here are likely to come from the Greek government and the Italian government. Without the help of the US military, it would be really troublesome to deal with it.

After dealing with these matters, Ye Tian began to call Wilson of Raytheon.

In a blink of an eye, the phone was connected, and the voice of the old fellow Wilson came.

"Steven, good afternoon, why do you remember calling me, what can I do for you?"

Ye Tian smiled softly, then whispered:

"Good afternoon, Wilson, of course something is going on calling you. Are the security personnel of your company in place and how is the equipment? We have already set off, and it will not be long before we can pass through the Andy Kythira Strait!"

"Don't worry, Steven, the security personnel in our company are already in place, and everyone has dealt with you and worked with you before. They have the foundation and foundation and are worthy of trust.

A total of 32 of them, each driving four large yachts, are cruising on the open waters of the Andykihira Strait, waiting to join your exploratory fleet.

Each of the four large yachts carried two high-speed speedboats. Once they were put on the sea, they would fly at high speed, and then cooperate with your helicopter to block a large area of ​​the sea.

As for the armed preparations and ammunition they carry, from pistols and underwater pistols, to machine guns, and shoulder-borne needle-stabbed air defense missiles, they have everything they need to fight a low-intensity war"

"That couldn't be better. Maybe you will need those guys tomorrow. You know, every time we go out to explore the shipwreck treasure, we always have some nasty tails behind us.

When the exploration fleet sails out of the territorial waters of Greece and enters the high waters, I am going to blast away those unpredictable guys behind the fleet. By then, I might use force to disperse them."

"No problem, those security personnel are all employed by you. They are the guns in your hands. Of course, you have to listen to your commands and hit them!"

"One more thing, this time we may have to deal with the US North Atlantic Fleet. We need to provide support or protection from the Bataan amphibious assault ship cruising in the Mediterranean to deter certain people or the government of a certain country.

You Raytheon has deep roots and a very close relationship with the military. Please help me to say hello to those guys in the North Atlantic Fleet. In this way, we can also rest assured to start exploring operations."

"That's okay, I'm very happy to help you, Steven, but you have to pay a high price to buy the service of the U.S. Navy."

"Of course, I didn't expect those greedy guys to contribute in vain. You can tell those guys that the rewards I give will definitely satisfy them."

Ye Tian said with a light smile, but there was a trace of pain in his eyes.

But there is no way, this is the price that must be paid, who makes this the Mediterranean Sea, at the doorstep of others.

Next, Ye Tian chatted with Wilson for a while before ending the call.

At the same time, Andre and Zhou Jiakang who remained in Athens had used their fake identities to quietly board a private plane to Valletta, the capital of Malta, and left Athens without knowing it.

In Valletta, the capital of Malta, more than 800 kilometers away, a medium-sized seaplane with smooth lines is waiting for them on the water of the port.

This is an alternate retreat route that Ye Tian secretly arranged. Apart from him, Zhou Jiakang, and Andre, no one knew about it, including David.

After enjoying the scenery at the front of the flying bridge deck for a while, Ye Tian returned to the rest area.

He just sat down on the sofa , a female company employee who was taking selfies next to him said with expectation:

"Steven, can you let the fleet stay at sea for a while? The view of the Aegean Sea is so beautiful, just passing by like this, it's a bit disappointing to this blue ocean!"

Not only she, but other people also have this idea. Everyone looked at Ye Tian, ​​and everyone was full of expectations.

Ye Tian looked at the female employee, then glanced at the crowd, then smiled and nodded and said:

"To be honest, I don't want to miss this beautiful scenery. When the fleet arrives near Crete, it will be anchored on the sea, allowing everyone to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Aegean Sea.

The scenery around Crete is more beautiful and the weather is warmer. We will stay there for one night, and we will sail out of the Strait of Antikythera tomorrow to continue our exploration journey."

Before the words fell, there was a cheer on the flying bridge deck.

"Wow! Great!"
