Chapter 259 Useless Struggle

At this point, even if the Gunslinger and the Frozen Banshee already know that this is a trap, it is useless, because the vortex has been formed, and the forward fleet of the US-Russian combined fleet has already rushed into the vortex. At this time, even if they want to It was impossible to avoid it. ;23＋wx

Watching the fleet gradually sailing into the huge whirlpool that was rapidly forming, the last thing the Frozen Banshee could do was to order each ship to make every effort to get out of the whirlpool. As for what battle formation and formation, then Don’t even think about growing anything.

Although it has passed the bombardment from our side, the US-Russian combined fleet now has a size of two thousand warships, and these warships will all be restricted by the vortex in a circular area with a radius of three hundred kilometers. Don't think that this range is very large. Although this space is indeed boundless to people, it is definitely quite crowded for a fleet composed of two thousand battleships, and these battleships are not It is stationary, but is still rotating while revolving around the large island in the center. It can be said to be extremely chaotic. Under such circumstances, collision has become inevitable.

"Ah ah ah... get out of the way, full right rudder, four vehicles at full speed." A captain shouted from the bridge to let the battleship avoid, but in the chaotic ocean current, the battleship was completely out of control, even though the helmsman tried his best Even with the turning of the wheel, there was no way to change the course. The battleship still inevitably hit a battleship on the other side with its broadside.

Boom... With a loud noise, the two battleships suddenly collided with each other, and everyone on board fell to the ground in an instant, but this was not the worst thing. Accompanied by a metallic twisting sound. One of the battleships actually broke in the middle and began to fold towards the opposite battleship. The two battleships actually formed an arrow shape, and then became entangled and began to slide towards the center of the whirlpool.

In fact, after creating such a large vortex, Poseidon was no longer able to control the intensity of the vortex, so as long as these warships were at full power and then controlled the direction, they could use the acceleration of the vortex to rush out from a suitable angle. Of course, there is definitely no way to control the position where it comes out, but it is certain that it can come out. However, the above premise is based on the premise that the battleship is fully powered, can control the direction reasonably, and choose the right tangent to make full use of the acceleration of the vortex. After the two battleships collided, there was no control and speed at all. Therefore, they were dragged towards the center area by the power of the vortex almost instantly. And this whirlpool is not an ordinary whirlpool. Its center is not a hole but an island. The warships rotating at high speed rushed onto the reefs around the island, and all fools knew the result.

"Full left rudder, reverse at full speed!" When the two warships slid from the outer area to the central area, they would inevitably invade the channel of other warships. The captain of one of the American biological warfare ships looked at the two damaged warships turning towards the right front and was frightened. He pushed the helmsman away and went up to try hard to find the direction while loudly commanding the warships to turn. Relying on the reversal of the thruster finally slowed down his speed. Then everyone on the bridge watched in a cold sweat as the two damaged warships rushed over while grazing their starboard sides. The bow of one of the ships actually hit the side of their ship, making a harsh metal friction sound. Fortunately, it was just a pass and nothing was lost.

The captain, who was about to breathe a sigh of relief, looked at the two warships going away. Before he could really relax, he heard the crew yelling: "Left... left..."

The captain suddenly turned his head and found that a battleship was rushing straight towards him from his port side. If he didn't take care of this course, he would definitely be hit. Only then did the captain realize that his warship had invaded someone else's waterway. In order to avoid the two ships, their battleship had already switched to full speed reverse mode. Although the battleship's power was not enough to stop it in this vortex instantly, the deceleration was certain. As long as the battleship is fast enough, it can rely on centrifugal force to resist the pulling force of the vortex, but this deceleration is not the case.

The captain had not paid attention just now because he was avoiding the two battleships. Now he suddenly remembered and immediately understood that he had slipped from the original channel to the channel inside the whirlpool. This captain is considered a relatively capable captain among the Holy Lancers, otherwise the collision just now would have destroyed them along with the two ships. Seeing the battleship approaching from the left line, the captain did not panic at all. He kept the left full rudder without moving the steering wheel in his hand. At the same time, he shouted an order: "Advance the thrusters at full speed, and turn on the afterburner thrusters as well." I open it."

The propeller that was originally reversing locked instantly, and then began to reverse. The battleship's descent speed suddenly increased, and it accelerated towards the center area along with the pulling force of the vortex. At the same time, the bow turned left just to bypass the oncoming ship. On the port side of the battleship, the two battleships then collided with each other with their broadsides. They leaned against each other with their broadsides and turned a full 180 degrees on the sea as if they were doing a close dance. Then they separated again. Everyone was so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat. It wasn't until the two battleships separated that they realized that they were okay.

"Boss, you are so awesome!" The helmsman held the stiffeners in the bridge and looked at his boss with his eyes filled with stars as he stretched out his thumb and began to flatter him.

As expected of an experienced captain, when he heard the compliments from his subordinates, he said expressionlessly: "Don't be distracted. Only by dodging that can you escape danger."

After hearing the captain's words, everyone started to look in the direction where the captain's eyes were looking. It didn't matter that they were uneasy. They almost peed their pants at this sight. It turned out that the battleship had actually rushed into the whirlpool after the two previous evasive actions. In the core area, in front of them there were two black rocks sticking out of the sea like two pillars. What was even more terrifying was that there was a battleship hanging on one of the rocks, which caused the gap in the middle to become is narrower.

"Engine room, no matter what happens, give me all the power, no less. Everyone who has nothing to do should find a place to hold on. We are going to fight hard."

The battleship had already entered the inner circle at this time. If you wanted to climb out, you would need to fight against the whirlpool, and there was no guarantee that there would be no more wreckage from collision accidents in the future. So the experienced captain came up with a way, that is Accelerate directly towards the core area, then use the power of the vortex to accelerate, and then venture through the periphery of the reef area. In this way, the battleship can rely on the kinetic energy accumulated before to rush out of the inner circle and re-enter the periphery of the vortex. Only then will there be enough They must have the motivation to get out of here, otherwise it will be useless no matter how hard they struggle.

"Hurry up." The captain, who was staring at the passage ahead, suddenly turned the steering wheel straight forward, and then the battleship rushed towards the gap between the two rocks at full speed without slowing down at all. The speed of the battleship at this time had even exceeded It exceeds the normal speed limit. After all, this is the speed accumulated by the battleship's own power plus the power of the vortex. It is normal for it to be higher than the normal speed.

The frantically charging warship suddenly rushed into the gap between the two reef pillars. The bow of the ship passed smoothly, and then the front turret area passed smoothly. However, at this time, the hull began to become wider and wider, and the gaps on both sides became wider and wider. Come smaller and smaller. Finally, the right side of the ship suddenly scraped against the side of the reef. With the harsh friction sound, everyone inside the battleship covered their ears. However, the battleship continued to move forward without slowing down, and the port side also hit the wreckage of the battleship. , but at this time the hull had reached the extreme width position, and then began to shrink toward the stern, so in the end it just rubbed hard and squeezed through. However, just after most of the battleships rushed past, the battleship suddenly stopped violently, and the ship's speed dropped suddenly. Many people on the ship were thrown out by the unexpected deceleration, but fortunately the deceleration was only a moment, but Few people knew that a violent explosion occurred in the cabin at the bow of the ship. At the same time, a large row of cabins began to fill with water. It was obvious that something had been hit.

In fact, the captain knew very well that they had hit a reef. It’s not surprising that there are reefs here. Of course the captain knew this possibility, but he had no choice, so he had to take the risk. Fortunately, his luck was not bad, the reef was not big, and it was broken by their warship. So the battleship just shook for a moment and then stabilized. However, what he didn't expect was that just a few seconds later, the battleship suddenly shook again, and then he found that the ship's acceleration effect had significantly dropped.

"Engine room, what's going on? Why is the power down?"

"An external impact occurred and the main shaft of the No. 2 impeller broke."

"Are the other machines okay?"

"Steam turbine No. 1 was affected by the explosion, and its output is now very unstable, but it is still holding on. Turbine No. 3 and No. 4 are on the other side of the separation wall and are not affected."

"Try your best to ensure that the No. 1 steam turbine does not lie down." After giving the order to the engine room, the captain immediately shouted to the controller next to him: "Blow up the No. 2 thruster."

"Huh?" The person in the control room was so surprised that he forgot to answer directly.

The captain yelled: "The main shaft is broken and there is no way to repair it here. The propeller is left there and it can affect the ship's speed. Don't you hear me asking you to blow it up?"

"Oh, yes...yes, Captain." The operator hurriedly began to operate. A circle of bubbles suddenly burst out from the root of the battleship's No. 2 propeller. The twisted propeller immediately detached from the hull and rolled into the rocks. However, the battleship rushed out directly and began to crawl toward the outer circle in the direction of the vortex. Although Poe was missing a propeller, his previous speed was still there, so they finally rushed directly to the outer area of ​​the whirlpool.

"Phew, it's so dangerous!" Seeing that the battleship finally got rid of the traction of the whirlpool and started to move out of the whirlpool area, the captain finally breathed a sigh of relief. The acrobatic driving just now made him very tired, but when he wiped I broke out in a cold sweat and turned my attention to my surroundings again, but it suddenly froze. Just in front of them was a large and dense fleet, and the cannons of all the warships were pointed directly at them. At that moment, the captain did nothing, but slowly closed his eyes. His skills are very good, but he is not a god, and even if he is a god, it is useless in this situation. With a flash of fire on the opposite side, their battleship was instantly submerged in the sea of ​​fire. (To be continued, please search, the novel will be better and updated faster!
