CHAPTER 856: CHAPTER 858: RESCUING AND SEIZING THE SUBMARINE

"The nuclear-powered submarine in Teuton’s possession is an Alpha-class attack submarine. It was acquired years ago by Baron and Teuton at a great cost from the people of Yan Country. That submarine has been deeply hidden by Baron and Teuton, rarely making an appearance. More than a year ago, when Teuton led his people away from Soloha, he specifically had someone secretly take control of the submarine. If Baron hadn’t proactively revealed it this time, we might have really suffered a major loss."

"Is the information reliable?"

"It’s absolutely reliable. As soon as I received the intelligence sent by Baron, I contacted Brother Lei. Brother Lei thoroughly investigated it overnight and confirmed the information. Back then, the Yan Country people did indeed sell an Alpha-class attack submarine to Baron. Furthermore, that particular nuclear submarine is now in Teuton’s hands. This is also the primary reason why, for more than a year, Baron hasn’t taken any action against Teuton. Boss, if we don’t acquire this nuclear submarine, it would indeed be a great pity."

Even Vulture, known for his reserved nature within the Hell’s Judgement Organization, couldn’t help but show signs of excitement at this moment.

It wasn’t that Vulture lacked composure; it’s just that the sheer value of an intact nuclear submarine is indescribable.

Worldwide, only six countries possess nuclear submarines. Strictly speaking, it should actually only be five.

Because Boro’s nuclear submarine has always been half-functional. It hardly counts as a fully combat-capable asset.

Although this is generally an acknowledged fact, some major countries might have secretly developed their nuclear submarines.

Nevertheless, the rarity of nuclear submarines clearly isn’t diminished in the slightest by this possibility.

After all, compared to conventional submarines, the endurance and combat capabilities of nuclear submarines are like night and day.

Hence, the immense value of an intact nuclear submarine is almost incalculable for countries eager to develop military strength.

The Hell’s Judgement Organization’s Central Continent base under Vulture’s command has long dominated the region, yet they still do not possess even a single decommissioned nuclear-powered submarine.

The entire Hell’s Judgement Organization owns only two, one of which is past its service period and on the verge of scrapping.

Moreover, the two nuclear-powered submarines owned by the Hell’s Judgement Organization are ballistic missile submarines, rarely used, serving more of a symbolic and deterrent role.

In contrast, the attack nuclear-powered submarine possessed by Teuton can be deployed in combat at any time.

When the Hell’s Judgement Organization first obtained those two ballistic missile submarines, Lin Fei once lamented that it would be much better if one of them had been an attack submarine.

Now, such an attack submarine has suddenly appeared before Lin Fei.

Even in Lin Fei’s current semi-retired state, when Vulture confirmed this information to him, Lin Fei couldn’t help but be thrilled.

After all, the Hell’s Judgement Organization is not like an ordinary mercenary organization. If an ordinary mercenary organization were to obtain such an attack submarine, aside from slightly enhancing their maritime combat capability, they would most likely sell it for money.

However, the Hell’s Judgement Organization clearly wouldn’t do that. The reason is simple: the Hell’s Judgement Organization has its own military labs and armory.

Once they acquire the attack submarine from Teuton, relying on the Hell’s Judgement Organization’s military labs, they might one day build their own second attack submarine.

With this thought, even Lin Fei, known for his exceptional psychological resilience, couldn’t help but lose focus momentarily.

Fortunately, after a brief pause, Lin Fei quickly collected himself and fully regained his composure.

After regaining composure, Lin Feihu looked directly at Vulture and said in a firm voice, "What do you think? Tell me your thoughts."

Noticing the eagerness in Lin Fei’s words, Vulture didn’t hesitate and immediately relayed the pre-planned strategy he had in mind to Lin Fei. "Last night, after you instructed me to issue the Judgment Order, not long after, people from Teuton’s side contacted us. They first inquired why we issued the Judgment Order against them. I ignored them, and later they took the initiative to seek peace. Initially, I was going to refuse outright."

"Later, I received the intelligence sent by Baron. After Brother Lei confirmed the accuracy of the information, I presented Teuton’s side with the demand for the nuclear submarine. Initially, Teuton’s people stubbornly refused to admit they had an attack nuclear-powered submarine. Once I showed them the intelligence from Baron, they had nothing to say. Only then did they reluctantly concede."

"Did they agree?"

"They more or less agreed, but they also presented their condition."

"What condition?"

"They want to use that attack nuclear submarine to hire me to guard them for five days."

When Vulture said this, there was no need for him to elaborate; Lin Fei could infer the rest by himself.

For Teuton’s side to smartly introduce a threat by proposing such an exchange, if Vulture didn’t know how to exploit it, he wouldn’t deserve to continue as the general manager of the Hell’s Judgement Organization’s Central Continent base.

And that was indeed the case. After forcing Teuton’s side to agree to transfer the attack nuclear submarine to him first, Vulture outwardly agreed to the transaction.

"Regarding the plan to rescue Uncle, I’ve figured it out. Earlier, Brother Lei also provided me with Uncle’s photo. I’ve distributed it. Shortly, I will send people to infiltrate the island and rescue Uncle first. Once Uncle is rescued, we can turn against Teuton. If, boss, you have any reservations, we can revise the plan. Additionally, I have prepared two backup plans, aligning primarily with rescuing Uncle. I will now brief you—"

"No need, your initial plan is quite satisfactory. Let’s proceed with your plan; I will personally rescue my dad." Seeing the intent in Vulture’s persuasion, Lin Fei interrupted Vulture, signaling him with a wave of his hand. "I’ve made my decision; you don’t need to say anything further. My dad isn’t aware of what we’ve been doing internationally these past years. At this point, I’m also not planning to make him aware."

"Therefore, today we will split into two paths. You secure that attack nuclear submarine and handle Teuton, while I rescue my dad. Afterward, you don’t have to send anyone to pick me up; I will leave directly by helicopter. As for other passengers held hostage on the island, contact the United Nations and let them handle the retrieval."

Understanding Lin Fei’s command, knowing he couldn’t possibly change Lin Fei’s decision, Vulture could only nod in agreement...
