881 The Test of Life
"Alpha team, what exactly have you found? Please answer!~" Lieutenant Colonel Duke heard the exclamation of the frogman team and immediately asked about the situation.
"Sir, I see you're in trouble, and a huge octopus is swimming in your direction. The frogman team replied immediately.
"What? is it an octopus?" asked Lieutenant Colonel Duke, surprised.
"Sir, the target is approaching us and is about to hit us. William exclaimed nervously.
However, as soon as William's voice fell, he only heard a loud sound of "bang!~", a huge octopus at a depth of 300 meters, and crashed into the Red Coral nuclear submarine, the Red Coral because of the use of a double-hull structure, the advantage of this structure is that it can make the structure of the submarine more solid, reduce the shock, and at the same time, it can also eliminate noise and greatly improve the comprehensive performance of the submarine.
Even in the event of a moderate collision, even if the hull is penetrated, as long as the inner hull is still playing well, the submarine will not sink.
The violent impact of the huge octopus instantly penetrated the shell of the Red Coral, knocking the 6,000-ton nuclear submarine out of a distance of nearly 100 meters, and the huge impact made the entire submarine almost break directly, and the oxygen circulation system in the submarine suffered a major failure, and the two small nuclear reactors were also in the collision, and a serious accident occurred in which the cooling pipe was broken.
The temperature of one of the nuclear reactors rose rapidly, soaring by two to three hundred degrees in just a few seconds, and could be in danger of getting out of control at any time.
Although the concentration of material in the nuclear reactor is not enough to cause a nuclear explosion, it is more than enough to melt a nuclear submarine, if the hull is burned through, all the crew will not survive, because no one can escape alive from the depth of 300 meters, if once out of the submarine, it will immediately face a pressure of 5 to 8 tons per square meter, the size of the pressure is directly proportional to the density of the seawater, the greater the density of the seawater, the greater the pressure of the seawater per unit area, and vice versa.
Such a strong pressure is enough to squeeze the blood vessels of the human body instantly, first of all, the blood vessels of the eyes will burst instantly, you will feel a sharp pain in the eyes, instant blindness, and then the lungs will be under the strong squeezing, the blood in the blood vessels of the lungs will pour into the lung cavity, and the alveoli will also be filled with blood, you will feel the sharp pain of the lungs, before you drown, you have been drowned by your own blood, almost less than ten seconds, you will instantly lose all consciousness, the heart will beat instinctively for one to two minutes, and then your body completely loses all functions and becomes a real dead person。
In this case, even if you are picked up quickly, you will die due to the rupture of blood vessels and the loss of lung function, and if you have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, or myocardial infarction and other diseases, I am afraid that you will hang up faster.
Therefore, once a submarine has an accident in a deep water area of three or four hundred meters, almost no one can survive, and this is one of the reasons why submarine officers and men have the highest food expenses and the best treatment, because they are the most dangerous branch of the military and are engaged in the most dangerous mission activities, so they will enjoy special allowances.
Duke's body was thrown out of the way during the impact just now, and his head hit the periscope hard, and he fell into a coma in an instant.
I don't know how long it took, but Duke came to his senses a little, and he heard a jumble of shouts, as well as urgent calls around him.
"Sir!~ Sir!~ Wake up, we're in big trouble. David shouted as he propped Duke up.
Duke was in a state of flux, his vision still a little blurred, and he looked at David, "What's going on?"
"Our reactor is out of control, reactor number one has a major failure, reactor number two is out of control, the temperature is rising rapidly, what should we do?" David shouted anxiously.
"Damn, shut down reactor No. 1 quickly, or shut down reactor No. 2 at all costs, if the temperature continues to rise, it may cause an even greater disaster, we are in the sea area of the flower planter, once the nuclear bomb in the submarine is detonated, the consequences are unimaginable. Duke shouted anxiously.
"It's Sir!~" After David finished speaking, he gathered one hundred and forty crew members.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm not kidding you, we've reached the most critical moment of life and death, now, each of us has almost no chance of survival, we're all going to be buried in this damn foreign land, far away from our parents, wives and children, but this is also the most critical moment for our devotion to our country, you all know that we have twelve Trident nuclear bombs on the Red Coral, each of which has four or six sub-warheads, and it is no exaggeration to say that our combat power can easily raze a country in the middle of Europe, which was once our proud capital, but now, … This became our biggest challenge.
The No. 2 nuclear reactor is out of control, the temperature is rising rapidly, we must shut down the No. 2 nuclear reactor at all costs, and must not let these nuclear bombs detonate, because that would bring catastrophic consequences to our country, no one wants to fight a nuclear war at such a time, and no one wants to let the end of the world be advanced, brothers, come on, let us use our lives to tell our motherland that each of us is a hero, let our name be remembered forever, and let our glorious deeds be passed on forever!~" David looked at the 14 crew members and said impassionedly.
"For Milicon, for glory!~" The crew shouted in unison, this was their battle motto.
After going through layers of selection, before officially joining, every crew member must swear to the flag of the motherland, "For Millican, for glory", which is an oath worth defending with his life.
David quickly organized a death squad of fifty people, under his personal leadership, into the No. 2 nuclear reactor, which is an extremely high temperature, extremely serious radiation death situation, in this environment, any protective clothing has no effect, and even every breath is facing death, however, all the crew members are not greedy for life and fear of death, rushing to the No. 2 nuclear reactor one after another, the crew in front of the crew fell, the people behind quickly made up, and finally after paying the price of thirty-nine people, the No. 2 nuclear reactor was finally miraculously shut down。
Seeing the reactor shut down, David finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, he also inhaled a large amount of water vapor containing nuclear radiation, and quickly lost consciousness and collapsed forever.
Of the fifty-man death squad, only nine people came out in the end, and forty-one people died on the spot...
