"The situation is tense right now, there is a submarine nearby, and it is not ours. Gu Tianyou returned to the command hall and just heard the Don River say in a very serious tone: "There are not many navies in the world that have the ability to patrol in this sea area, and they can evade our detection, and it is very likely that even fewer will detect us, so I have to regret to inform you that we have encountered a terrible opponent, either a sea wolf or Ohio."www.biquge.info ”

I don't know when, Long Jianmei and Sun Jingfei also came out, and Pei Lan was also there, and it could be seen that he was very nervous.

"Without a chance, Charles could not have brought me alive to the Republic by you, or to return to the United States. He stood behind the sonar chief, stared intently at the sonar detection screen, and said: "It can only be the Ohio-class attack nuclear submarine of the Fifth Fleet, and it is impossible to defeat it with this new electric submarine whose technology has not yet matured." ”

Don's eyes shone with a frenzy, and he didn't speak. Kunpeng snorted and said, "Strong and weak are not said with mouths, you only know after fighting." ”

There have been no wars in the republic for thirty years, but this does not include the submarine forces. As the sword of the country and the most important component of strategic forces, the battle of submarine forces has never been on the surface.

The sonar chief suddenly raised his hand to signal, and there was movement.

"The other party sent out an attack sonar, and it was behind our buttocks. ”

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 carried out the command of the Don River, giving instructions to the helmsman.

The bow of the submarine was slightly raised and headed towards the surface at an elevation angle of about five degrees.

"What's the situation?" Sun Jingfei was taken aback and looked at Kunpeng and asked.

"Go up and meet our friends in the United States. Kunpeng's tone was calm, but his feverish eyes revealed the excitement in his heart.

"Just ascend to periscope depth. "It's an unwritten rule among submarines of various countries, and a sonar bang indicates that the other side wants to communicate with us, that is, to ascend to periscope depth, and then communicate with a light signal," Don explained. ”

As soon as he returned to the command center of the submarine, Gu Tianyou sensed the breathless tense atmosphere. At this moment, the only one who is really calm and calm is Don He.

Gu Tianyou asked, "Has the other party already determined our identity?"

"Maybe you know, maybe you don't. Kunpeng sighed, "In order to pick you up, we had to reveal our whereabouts. Over the past few days, we've had several encounters with them, and we've never been caught. I'm afraid I won't be as lucky as I used to be. ”

"In other words, the other party may not know who we are, so they induce us to float up so that we can identify our identities?"

Don He nodded and said, "This is the first time that the Sailfish has come out on a mission, and the other party should not know our identity." ”

Gu Tianyou was categorical: "So we can't go up and expose our identities, because their goal is not to save people, but to kill people!"

The opposing side has already taken up an advantageous position, and it is a little faster than the "Sailfish", and if the "Sailfish" does not rise to periscope depth, it is quite possible to escalate the confrontation. Thinking of this special operation deployed by Sun Jingfei and the heads of the naval command, the Don River is almost certain that even if the other side does not use force, it will force the "Sailfish" to surface by ramming.

Don squinted, still thinking. He is now a submarine commander, not an agent. What needs to be considered at the moment is more at the tactical level, as for how important this Perrin is, and how strategic it will be after getting him back, it is not what he should sum up at the moment. For him, there is only one factor that influences his decision, whether exposed or not exposed will lead to an escalation of the confrontation, and he must decide what to do to have a better chance of winning this confrontation!

"You're right. Don He lit a cigarette, which was immediately extinguished after only one puff, and then thought about it before saying: "Based on my experience, I can basically confirm that the other party does not know our true identity for the time being, but it is very likely that he has mastered our characteristic noise." ”

Gu Tianyou said: "If you float up, your identity will be exposed, you will definitely be sunk, if you don't float to the periscope level, it will be regarded as an unfriendly expression, and the confrontation will escalate, no matter what, it's all fighting, I don't think there's anything to hesitate." ”

Don He said with a serious expression: "The biggest question is who will bear the consequences of the war, to attack the world's number one naval force, regardless of whether it can win, even if it wins, the Ohio-class nuclear submarine is 170 meters long, with more than 200 people, once it is sunk, can you imagine how the United States will react?"

"If necessary, fight!" Gu Tianyou said categorically: "When the sky falls, I will carry it first, and it is better to sink into the sea forever than to be a prisoner without a shot." ”

These words sounded very harsh, Kunpeng first coldened his face, 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 same sea control as the United States Navy, I believe that this rise process must start with the Sailfish." ”

Don He's eyes were sharp, a cold light flashed, and he had obviously made up his mind, he said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, then show the sword!" As he spoke, he walked directly to the command position and instructed the helmsman: "Stop floating and report the other party's position." ”

"Three hundred and ten degrees, thirty chains!" Kunpeng 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 He was not surprised at all, and gave orders in succession as usual: "Now under my command, the whole boat is in combat state, and the No. 3 fish bud is equipped with firing data." The first fifteen, the tail fifteen, the left full rudder, full power propulsion. Sonar long, monitoring the situation of enemy boats. ”

"Yes!" Kunpeng excitedly commanded all the people into battle. The red lights in the various cabins of the whole boat immediately flashed, and in less than ten seconds, the "Sailfish" had entered a combat state.

Like a deep-sea monster, the 3,800-ton Sailfish dived at a breakneck speed. This is the answer to the other party, tactical evasion, depending on how you respond, you have to fight!

"Report to the captain, Ohio is following!" the sonar chief reported.

Don He nodded, his expression solemn and calm. Gu Tianyou glanced at it, and the middle-aged captain's face did not show the slightest emotional fluctuation.

The battle has begun, and one of the two submarines is destined to remain at the bottom of this desolate sea forever.

300 nautical miles east of Pemba Island and 350 meters below the surface of the sea, the "Sailfish" slowly drifted northeast at a speed of less than three knots, driven by a deep-water undercurrent. Inside the submarine, the naturally circulating PWR is running at idle speed, with the drive shaft slowly rotating at a rate of five revolutions per minute. The officers and men were even more light-footed during their activities, for fear of making a little noise. For three days in a row, the cooks had nothing to do, because stir-frying and cooking had to make a sound.

In the sailor's cabin, a soldier made a slight noise when he opened the can of yellow croaker, which immediately attracted the angry eyes of the others, and the sailor quickly grimaced and shrank back to his bunk. Gu Tianyou and Long Jianmei sat side by side on the lower bunk opposite, glancing at each other. At this time, no great grandmaster or master can use anything, and life and death depend on the performance of this submarine and these officers and soldiers.

Because a third of the sailors had to sleep in the "hot bunks", there were no extra bunks on the submarine for the few people who "cut in line". So these few people can only make do with the soldiers. Xiaolongnu refused the preferential treatment of a single room in the captain's room, and she had to be with the eighth uncle in life or death. On the contrary, it is cheaper, and the non-commissioned officer who sleeps on this bunk can go to the captain's room to make a bunk.

Xiaolongnu is the king of heavenly soldiers, and she has experienced all kinds of difficult environments, and she has no concept of male and female harm to these sailors who dare not look up at her at a glance, if she didn't make noise, she would have been giggling and laughing.

Gu Tianyou pushed the door and walked into the captain's room. Don He is immersed in reading a book, and the title of the book is: Is the golden lin a pond of filth?

"Sure enough, the old driver. Gu Tianyou casually joked.

Don He pointed to the bunk of Kunpeng on the other side and said, "I borrowed it from the young man." He put down the book and said, "Something?"

"What's the situation now?" Gu Tianyou asked directly, "Do you think that Ohio will give up tracking and return to the sea a long time ago?"

Don subconsciously took out a cigarette, he said more than once that he wanted to quit smoking, and always said that it was his son's college money that he smoked. But these days, he smokes a lot. Shaking his head slowly, he suddenly asked, "Mr. Gu, do you trust intuition?"

Gu Tianyou smiled and said, "Originally, I may be the person with the most accurate intuition in this world, but now, when it comes to your acre and three points, I am completely useless as a hero, but I believe in intuition." ”

"As a submarine commander, my instincts tell me that this is a very patient opponent who will not give up easily. ”

Gu Tianyou said: "You mean, the enemy is nearby, and waiting for us to show our feet, and then give us a fatal blow." After a slight pause, he said with a smile: "I think that the submarine is a sniper in the sea, ambush well, patiently wait for the enemy to appear, and then kill with one shot!"

"You can say that, but it doesn't completely summarize the content of submarine warfare. ”

Gu Tianyou said: "We have been at a disadvantage, I don't think you seem to be too worried?"

"I envy my opponent. An inexplicable word suddenly came out of the Don River.

Ohio has already determined that the Sailfish is a new submarine, and it has always been in a good position, and they have come with a mission, so they will definitely not give up and will definitely chase after it, and it is very likely that after the situation deteriorates, they will take the lead and sink the Sailfish! As the supremacy of the sea, the United States Navy is not so afraid of it. In contrast, although the Don River is certain that it will wrestle with it, it has missed opportunities again and again because of scruples.

"The Sailfish is good enough to compete with the Ohio class. Don continued: "The premise is that you can let go of the fight!"

The country is weak, the individual is strong, and even if he has the ability to reach the sky, he cannot use it.

Gu Tianyou understood what he meant this time, and said, "There will be a day." ”

Don smiled, glanced at the time, and said, "It's my turn." With that, he got up and walked to the command center.

Gu Tianyou was full of curiosity about the confrontation between submarines, and the silence that had been in the past few days had already whetted his appetite, lest he miss something if he didn't keep up with a single thought, so he hurriedly got up and followed, and came to the command center together. Long Jianmei was also there, standing behind Kunpeng with her hands in her hands, and the sonar chief looked at her with an angry face, as if there had just been an argument here.

"What's going on?"
