Infernal Hero Chapter 401: Fighting in the deep sea
"The situation is very tense now. There is a submarine nearby, and it's not our submarine." Gu Tianyou returned to the command hall and just heard the Don River say in a very serious tone: "The whole world has the ability to operate in this sea area. There are not many navies cruising, can avoid our detection, and there is a good chance of detecting us even less, so I have to regret to inform you that we have encountered a terrible opponent, either sea wolves or Ohio ."
I don't know when, Long Jianmei and Sun Jingfei also came out, and Pei Lan was there too. It was obvious that he was very nervous.
"Without a chance, Charles would not have allowed me to be taken to the Republic by you alive, or returned to the United States." He stood behind the sonar chief, staring at the sonar detection screen, saying: "It can only be the fifth The fleet's Ohio-class nuclear attack submarine is simply impossible to defeat with this new, immature electric submarine."
There was a frenzy in the Don River's eyes, but he didn't speak. Kunpeng snorted and said, "Strength and weakness are not spoken by mouth, but only after beating."
The Republic hasn't had a war in thirty years, but that doesn't include the submarine force. As the sword of the country and the most important part of the strategic force, the battle of the submarine force has never been on the bright side.
The sonar chief suddenly raised his hand to signal that there was movement.
"The other party sent an attacking sonar wave, and it was behind our ass."
Don He nodded slightly, waved his hand at Kunpeng, and said, "You will command."
"Ten on the head, five on the tail, one-third of the power!" Kunpeng executed the Don River's order and issued an order to the helmsman.
The bow of the submarine was slightly raised and headed towards the sea at an elevation angle of about five degrees.
"What's the situation?" Sun Jingfei asked in surprise, looking at Kunpeng.
"Go up and meet our friends from the United States." Kunpeng's tone was calm, but his frantic eyes revealed his inner excitement.
"Just go up to periscope depth." Don explained: "This is an unwritten rule among submarines in various countries. A sonar slam indicates that the other party wants to communicate with us, that is, go up to periscope depth, and then use lights. signal to communicate.”
As soon as he returned to the command center of the submarine, Gu Tianyou noticed the breathless tension. At this moment, the only person who is truly calm is Don He.
Gu Tianyou asked: "Has the other party confirmed our identity?"
"Maybe I know, maybe I don't know." Kunpeng sighed, "In order to pick you up, we had to reveal our whereabouts. In the past few days, we have encountered them several times, but we have not been caught by the other party. This time I'm afraid I'm not as lucky as I used to be."
"That is to say, the other party may not know who we are, so he tempted us to go up to identify our identity? Doing this will definitely reveal our identity?" Gu Tianyou confirmed urgently. .
Don River nodded and said: "This is the first time the Sailfish has come out to perform a mission. The other party should not know our identity."
Gu Tianyou is decisive: "So we can't go up and reveal our identities, because their goal is not to save people, but to kill!"
The opponent has already occupied a favorable position and is faster than the Sailfish. If the Sailfish does not rise to the periscope depth, it is likely to escalate the confrontation. Thinking of this special operation deployed by Sun Jingfei and the chiefs of the Naval Command, the Don River is almost certain that even if the opponent does not use force, it will force the "Sailfish" to float to the surface by means of impact.
Don squinted, still thinking. He is now a submarine commander, not a special agent. What needs to be considered at the moment is more of a tactical level. As for how important this Perrin is, and how much strategic significance it will have after getting him back, it is not something he should sum up at this moment. For him, there is only one factor that affects his decision. Whether it is exposure or not, the confrontation will escalate. He must decide what to do to be more likely to win this confrontation!
"You're right." Don lit a cigarette, only took a puff and then went out immediately, and after thinking about it, he said: "Based on my experience, it is basically certain that the other party doesn't know yet. Our true identities, but most likely have mastered our characteristic noise."
Gu Tianyou said: "If you float up, your identity will be revealed, and you will definitely be sunk. If you don't float to the height of the periscope, you will be regarded as an unfriendly expression, and the confrontation will escalate. No matter what, it's a fight. I don't think there is any hesitation. ."
The Don River said with a serious expression: "The biggest question is who will bear the consequences of the war. I can't say whether the number one naval force in the world can win, even if it wins, the Ohio-class nuclear submarine will last for a long time. One hundred and seventy meters, with more than 200 people, can you imagine how the United States will react once it is sunk?"
"Fight if necessary!" Gu Tianyou said decisively: "I'll carry the sky first, I'd rather sink into the sea forever than be a prisoner without a shot."
This sounded harsh, Kunpeng's face froze first, and said: "Captain, I have a few words to tell you, the Sailfish is the future of our submarine force, if one day we can have the With the same command of the sea as the navy, I believe that the process of this rise must have started from the Sailfish.”
Don He's eyes were sharp, and a flash of cold light flashed through his eyes. Obviously he had made up his mind. He said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, let's shine the sword!" After speaking, he stepped directly into the command position and instructed the helmsman: "Stop floating, report the location of the opponent."
"Three hundred and ten degrees, 30 chains away!" Kunpenghui reported: "Just a few seconds ago, the other party sent a directional high-frequency signal, probably mapping our shape."
"At least it's not too late." Don River was not surprised at all, and continued to issue orders as usual: "I'm in command now, the whole boat is in combat mode, and the No. 3 fish bud sets the shooting data. , tail fifteen, full left rudder, full power propulsion. Long sonar, monitoring the situation of enemy boats."
"Yes!" Kunpeng excitedly commanded all the staff to enter the battle state. The red lights in the cabins of the whole boat flickered immediately, and in less than ten seconds, the "Sailfish" had entered a state of combat.
Like a deep-sea monster, the 3,800-ton Sailfish dived at a rapid rate. This is the answer to the opponent, tactical evasion, depending on how you deal with it, you can fight if you want!
"Report Captain, Ohio is following!" reports Sonar Longway.
Don River nodded, his expression solemn and steady. Gu Tianyou glanced at it, and the middle-aged captain's face did not show the slightest emotional fluctuations.
The battle has begun, and one of the two submarines is destined to stay on the bottom of this desolate sea forever.
Three hundred nautical miles east of Pemba Island and 350 meters below the sea surface, the "Sailfish" was slowly drifting northeastward at a speed of less than three knots, driven by a deep undercurrent. Inside the submarine, the natural circulation pressurized water reactor is running at idle speed, driving the propulsion shaft to rotate slowly at five revolutions per minute. The officers and soldiers were even more light-handed when they were moving, for fear of making a little noise. For three days in a row, the cooks did nothing, because cooking makes noises.
In the sailor's cabin, a soldier made a sound when he opened the can of yellow croaker, which immediately attracted the glare of others, and the sailor quickly made a face and shrank to his bunk. Gu Tianyou and Long Jianmei sat side by side on the lower bunk opposite each other and looked at each other. At this time, no great masters or great masters are useless. Life and death all depend on the performance of this submarine and these officers and soldiers.
Because one-third of the sailors sleep in "hot bunks", there are no extra bunks on the submarine for the few people who "cut the queue". So these few people can only make do with the soldiers to rest. Xiaolongnv refused the single room preferential treatment in the captain's room, and she had to stay with Uncle Eight. On the contrary, the non-commissioned officer sleeping on this bunk can go to the captain's room to make a floor bunk.
Little Dragon Girl is the king of the heavenly soldiers. She has experienced all kinds of difficult situations. She has no concept of being a man or a woman. Hee hee ha ha melded together.
Gu Tianyou pushed the door and walked into the captain's room. Don River is burying his head in reading a book, the title of the book is: Jinlin is the dirt in the pool.
"Sure enough, the old driver." Gu Tianyou made a joke casually.
The Don River pointed to Kunpeng's shop opposite and said, "I borrowed it from a young man." Putting down the book, he said, "Anything?"
"What's the situation now?" Gu Tianyou asked directly: "Do you think that Ohio would have given up tracking and returned to the ship long ago?"
Don He subconsciously took out his cigarette. He said more than once that he wanted to quit smoking, but he always said that what he smoked was his son's college money. But these days, he smoked a lot. Slowly shaking his head, he suddenly asked, "Mr. Gu, do you trust your intuition?"
Gu Tianyou smiled and said: "I may have been the most accurate person in the world with intuition, but now, when you reach 1/3 of your acre, I am completely useless as a hero, but I believe in intuition. ."
Don River Road: "As a submarine commander, my gut tells me that this is a very patient opponent, and he will not give up easily."
Gu Tianyou said: "You mean that the enemy is nearby, and waiting for us to reveal their faults, and then give us a fatal blow." Wei Wei paused, then smiled: "I think submarines are snipers in the sea. Hands, ambush well, wait patiently for the enemy to appear, and then kill you with one shot! Isn't it?"
Don River: "It can be said, but it does not fully summarize the content of submarine warfare."
Gu Tianyou said: "We have been at a disadvantage, I don't think you seem to be worried?"
"I really envy my opponent." Don He suddenly said something inexplicable.
Ohio has determined that the Sailfish is a new submarine and has always been in a favorable position. They have come with a mission, so they will definitely not give up and will definitely pursue it. It is very likely that after the situation deteriorates, they will take the lead. Shoot, sink the sailfish! As a maritime hegemon, the United States Navy has nothing to fear. In contrast, although the Don River has a certain degree of confidence in wrestling with him, he has missed the opportunity time and time again because of his scruples.
"The performance of the Sailfish is enough to compete with the Ohio class." Don continued: "The premise is that you can let it go!"
The country is weak, the individual is strong, and even if he has the ability to the sky, he cannot use it.
This time Gu Tianyou understood what he meant and said, "There will be such a day."
Don He smiled, glanced at the time, and said, "It's time for me to be on duty." After speaking, he got up and walked to the command center.
Gu Tianyou was full of curiosity about the confrontation between the submarines, and the silence of the past few days had already suffocated his appetite. He was afraid that he would miss something if he didn't catch up with one thought, so he quickly got up and followed and came to the command center together. Long Jianmei was also there, standing behind Kunpeng with positive and negative hands. The sonar chief looked at her with an angry face, as if some dispute had just happened here.
"What's the matter?"
