Chapter 2008 Survive in Danger Surfaced

The submarine formation was at a loss. Facing the attack on the Sean just now, none of them even had time to react.

They only knew that the Sean had been killed, but they didn't expect that the Sean was regarded as a medium for detonating mines and became a tool in the hands of the enemy.

Amidst the huge explosion, they had already become headless chickens. I don't know how to act well, and I can't help but feel fear of the opponent hidden deep in the deep sea. They were worried, worried that they would be next, that is, in the footsteps of the Sean. With nothing to do, they could only communicate meaninglessly on the radio.

"The Sean is dead, what should we do now?"

"Damn it, how did he find the Sean? This is a place two hundred meters deep in the sea, so he shouldn't be able to see anything."

"Command tower, what should we do next? Just squatting here and waiting for him to come to the door?"

It's not wrong to say that people are panicking. Facing the disorganized submarine formation underwater, the commander of the fleet heard the screams before he could come up with a good countermeasure.

"Damn, we're under attack. Help, help! Whatever it is, come and save us!"

There was a rumbling explosion, and the sailor who was in charge of receiving the signal immediately raised his head and shouted.

"Sir. Waller lost contact...Farncombe also lost contact..."

It was obvious that there were more than one submarine under attack, and they were almost front to back. The communication between the two submarines had already fallen into silence one after another.

As before, their enemies have learned to use submarines to trigger mines. And when such methods were used one after another, the psychological defense of the submarine officers and soldiers had already been stretched to a very dangerous edge.

This is not a fight, this is simply death. No one wants to die, and it's still so unclear. So immediately, they made a request to the command tower.

"Sir, we have to retreat. If we don't retreat, then we may all die here! We don't want to die, especially if we don't want to die so clearly! This is simply a joke with our lives !"

"Are you going to be court-martialed? This is war, soldier. You have only one choice in this situation, and that is to obey all orders from your superiors!"

The panic of the submarine officers and soldiers was clearly heard,

The fleet commander can also understand their mood at the moment. But what he knows better is that he must not make any connivance at this time.

Once he surrendered first, he would immediately lose his prestige in front of the entire fleet. In a war, it is completely predictable what kind of terrible consequences a commander without prestige will lead to. Therefore, whether it is for himself or for the safety of the entire fleet, he must give a strong enough feedback.

Putting out the military court may not be able to frighten these terrified soldiers, but it can restore them to a little bit of reason. Of course, it was impossible for him to let the submarine dive so deep at this time. Because the fact that half of the submarines were destroyed has proved that this is simply to deliver food to the enemy.

Even if he does not consider the safety of the submarine officers and soldiers, he must consider the interests of the entire fleet and the morale of the soldiers. Taking these problems into consideration, after pondering for a while, he quickly issued a new order.

"All submarines, start to surface immediately! You have to find a way to avoid those mines by yourself. At the same time, during the process of surfacing, I ask you to release all the mines carried by this ship."

"Floating? We are all covered with mines that you set up?"

Hearing this order, the submarine officers and soldiers immediately began to doubt. They couldn't imagine that what Shangfeng issued was such an order to let them float up in the mine deployment area. Isn't this the same as walking in the minefield physically? This is not letting them save themselves, this is simply letting them die. They obviously couldn't accept such an order, and they seemed to understand what they were worried about. The fleet commander immediately pointed out the critical point of the problem.

"The density of mines is not as high as you think. As long as you are lucky enough, you can float out of the minefield safely. Of course, you can also choose not to do this. Anyway, there are only two choices, or stay in the water Wait for death at the bottom, and pray that the monster under the water will let you go. Or just float up like this, and take advantage of the monster's pursuit of you to wait for an ambush."

"Don't think about escaping, let's not talk about what it's like to be a deserter on the battlefield. Just talking about speed, do you think that with the speed of the submarine, you can really escape from that monster under the water? Leaving the large army, you have only a dead end. On the contrary, listen to me, lead that monster into the fire circle, this may be your way of survival. "

"I gave the order to you anyway. Whether you listen to it or not depends on your own choice."

The fleet commander seems to have given them a lot of choice, but if you think about it carefully, you can understand that they actually have only one choice if they want to survive. There was absolutely no way to do it, so even if it was said to be a full-fledged job, the officers and soldiers of the submarine could only grit their teeth and say.

"Understood, sir. We're about to go up!"

"Start immediately. The earlier you have a better chance of surviving, don't care about the problem of diving sickness. As long as it doesn't kill you, come as soon as possible. In addition, the torpedoes are also ready to launch. Once the mines you deployed are triggered , Don’t worry about other things, launch it immediately from the torpedo explosion zone, understand?”

"Yes, sir, we understand."

At first glance, I feel that the arrangement of my own official seems to have some hope of survival. The officers and soldiers immediately cheered up, and even the previous resentment was much less. Of course, they also knew that this was not the time to talk nonsense, so while making a standard reply, they had already begun to control the submarine and began to float up.

The speed of the ascent was so fast that many people felt tinnitus and heart discomfort. However, they still worked hard to overcome this problem, and according to Shangfeng's order, they began to drop water mines all the way during the ascent process.

And it seems that they don't want to see these ducks flying away like this, something surges in the deep sea immediately, rushing towards the floating submarine.

Of course, he fell into a trap by doing so, and the water mines dropped along the way were immediately aroused by this reckless action. The booming explosion sounded from the submarine's feet, and feeling the impact of the explosion, the submarine officers and soldiers acted quickly while being nervous and excited.

"Hurry up, launch the torpedo, count down to 3, 2, 1, launch!"

It is about their own lives, and the sailors dare not slack off. All the actions were done in one go, and in the blink of an eye, seven or eight torpedoes had already been fired towards the explosion area.

The torpedo seemed to hit the target, but it also seemed to not. The submarine officers and soldiers couldn't be sure. The first time they fired the torpedo, they had already accelerated their speed desperately and fled towards the surface of the water.

This process didn't take long, less than a minute in total, and they finally surfaced safely on the water. Such smoothness made them feel lucky for the rest of their lives, but it also made them wonder whether their previous torpedo attack had worked. Otherwise, there is no reason that monster would let them go so easily.

"Report, Collins? Did you fire a torpedo? Did it hit the target?"

When Shangfeng's inquiry came, the captain of the submarine could only give a general guess.

"I think we should have hit it, otherwise it should have caught up with us now."

"Did a few torpedoes kill it?" The fleet commander stroked his beard, somewhat disbelieving in this possibility. There is a reason for his judgment. One is the strength shown by that monster, which can easily destroy more than a dozen patrol ships. Although those patrol ships are just like small sampans, they are warships anyway. In addition, there are still three submarines at the bottom, such a record, no matter what, it should be a monster at the level of Godzilla. He obviously didn't believe that Godzilla could be killed with a mere minefield and a few torpedoes.

Secondly, even if it is not at the same level as Godzilla, it is still an existence that can make an eastern detachment powerless. And you must know that the destroyers of the Orientals have always been super-standard ships. A destroyer weighing 10,000 tons is unheard of. In terms of displacement alone, their Australian Adelaide-class frigate is almost like a younger brother. It was such a fleet, but it failed in the face of this monster. It's really hard to believe that they took down their opponents with just a few submarines.

Of course, he can also comfort himself that this is the stupidity of the Orientals and their Australian tactical excellence. But this kind of self-comforting words can be used to deceive their own citizens, and they can be used to deceive themselves, especially those who stand at the top of the military, they are simply fooling themselves like fools.

This is the 21st century, the post-modernization of military warfare. Against this background, the so-called tactics are not as important as they were a hundred years ago. Now the most important factor and the most decisive factor in the war situation is technology, that is, the advanced level of military equipment.

A simple analogy is, give you an aircraft carrier formation during World War II, the kind with battleships. And the latest Type 055 guided missile destroyer I use here. As long as the supply of ammunition is sufficient, I can beat you into a fool from a hundred kilometers away, but you can't even touch a shadow of me.

In this case, no matter what tactics are used, they are useless. Even if you organize all the ships and even the carrier aircraft into a kamikaze special attack team, it is impossible to miss my sight. This is the absolute crushing of technological power, but the current situation is that although the destroyer fleet of the Orientals is not enough to absolutely crush the Australian Navy, the advantage is already there.

Let's not talk about the details, let's just talk about production and development. The East has a complete industrial production system, and all ships can be independently developed and built. On the basis of increasingly strong capital and technological strength, their speed of innovation is almost as fast as making dumplings.

And look at their Australia, almost all ships can only be bought with money. If it was in the past, it would be nothing. After all, they are a member of NATO. As long as they don't mean to buy F22 or Ford, there are almost no weapons and equipment they can't buy. But in recent years, especially now, the situation is quite different.

Americans can't protect themselves, a large number of established companies have left, and there is no place to buy them if they want to buy them. Of course, if you don’t buy American products, you can buy European products, and Australia prefers Europe. But here lies the problem. The European economy has been in decline all year round, and the development of technological strength cannot keep up. They have been replaced by four or five generations like dumplings, and you have only two generations here, and the third generation is just a concept, which is really too hurtful.

The key is that the things are still extremely expensive, the service attitude is bad, the delivery is always delayed and the payment is required, that is to say, there is really no other suitable supplier, otherwise the people represented by the fleet commander The military people waited, the mother had already turned the table.

It's just that I really have no choice, so I can only swallow my anger all the time. And the current situation is that even if you kill the commander of the fleet, he will never believe that just a few submarines have done things that the 10,000-ton large-scale drive detachment failed to do.

There must be something strange here!

As soon as he came to a conclusion in his mind, the crew had already sounded the alarm to him.

"Sir, the sonar has detected a huge response wave, coming towards us from below us! The target is...submarine formation."

"I knew it!" This is the normal situation. The fleet commander who got the report was not surprised, but immediately issued a new order. "Notify the submarine force to let them abandon the ship and escape. Ask the nearest ship to send a helicopter to rescue immediately, and first rescue the people on the submarine."

"The bomber is in the air, ready for an air strike. All the frigates are ready to fight. Once the target is found, they are allowed to fire immediately!"

After a series of orders, all the ships began to operate. With the monitoring of the sonar system, a huge object has already emerged from the deep sea, appearing at a position within walking distance of the submarine force.

With a "bang", a huge tentacle burst out of the water, and it slapped the surface of the submarine with thunderous thunder. The submarine squeaked loudly, and obvious damage was visible to the naked eye. But the tentacles were still not satisfied, so they entangled themselves on the submarine, and tied them round and round. The huge force caused the surface of the submarine to deform, and it seemed that the submarine was used as a fulcrum. While exerting force and entanglement, the tentacles also dragged the huge body of the main body, and floated one by one to the surface of the water. superior.

A gigantic octopus, or octopus-like behemoth. With a huge body of hundreds of meters, each tentacle is as long as a frigate. Even if it is far away, the fleet commander can clearly see its dark green gnarled body, as well as that terrifying abyss-like turbo-toothed mouth.

This is the monster they have to deal with, just like the mythical Norse monster. There is no doubt about this, because it can be seen from the scars on this monster that it was this guy who fought them before. Although it is a little strange why this sea monster moves so quickly, this does not prevent the fleet commander from giving the most correct order.

"Notify all troops, open fire!"
