Chapter Seventy-One: Waiting

Chen Xu swore that if he had another chance, he would not choose to take a submarine, it was too bitter inside, stuffy in the narrow cabin every day, all kinds of engine oil smells, metal smells, and then mixed with the body odor of dozens of men, it was really smelly and stuffy.

But there is no way to get out, because it is a hundred meters deep outside.

Of course, it's easy to get out of the submarine, just get into the torpedo tube, spit out the air in your lungs and hold your breath, and then someone outside pressurizes the torpedo tube, and you can be launched.

Don't think it's a joke, everyone has become nervous after being in a submarine for too long, and turning yourself into a torpedo and escaping from this big metal coffin is the most frequently discussed topic.

Sometimes, Chen Xu even felt that it was a wrong decision to steal this nuclear submarine, and he would not have today's hard life if he left directly after killing Beria.

Every night when the submarine comes up, everyone will line up and climb out. Every time he dived, the captain had to work hard to get everyone back again.

However, compared to Chen Xu's struggle in the submarine, Zhong Siyang's side is much better, and the naval command treats him as a distinguished guest, serving him with good food and drink. The big leaders of the navy asked him about the nuclear submarine over and over again, Zhong Siyang didn't know what to say at all, he just told Chen Xu about the process of how he got the submarine over and over again, and the old leaders of the navy just didn't get tired of listening.

This matter is really too fanciful, the commander of the navy didn't believe it at all, he thought that Zhong Siyang was deceiving him, so he put the teapot on the table on the spot, and he looked very angry.

However, before his temper could brew, there was a knock on the door outside the house, and then the confidential secretary of the Naval Intelligence Office broke in, walked over quickly, bent down and muttered a few words in the naval commander's ear, and then the commander's face changed greatly, and his eyes became hot when he looked at Zhong Siyang.

It turned out that Chen Xu and others faked the collision of two submarines in the Atlantic, and also sent a distress signal on a public channel.

Within a few hours, the Soviet Navy went crazy and sent more than fifty warships to frantically pounce on the South Atlantic.

The West German government is dumb and eats coptis, and the fact that they sold advanced submarines to the Soviet Union without permission was all exposed at once, and the US imperialists were not to mention how angry they were. However, West Germany was the most important line of defense against the Red Empire, and West Germany suffered losses, and the United States could not turn a blind eye, so it immediately sent an aircraft carrier fleet to the scene of the accident in the name of searching and rescuing 209 submarines.

An unprecedented search and rescue operation was grandly opened with the attention of the whole world, and the size of the warships dispatched by both sides has exceeded the threat of Cuban missiles. The incident has evolved from a simple search and rescue operation to a wrestling between the United States and the Soviet Union, showing off military muscles to the world.

After such a powerful search, the wreckage of the 209 submarine was found the next day, and the cargo was lying quietly on a very sloping hillside at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. The Soviets brought in a state-of-the-art deep-sea submarine to inspect the accident site, but the results were frustrating, because the location of the submarine was too complicated to salvage the submarine and the cost of salvaging it was more expensive than building one. And through the videos and photos taken by the deep-sea submarine, and the serious impact marks on the hull, it can be basically concluded that the submarine sank after a violent impact.

With the appearance of the 209 submarine, both the United States and the Soviet Union have been completely sure that a serious collision incident has indeed been found in this area, and there is no doubt that the missing Soviet K432 Alpha-class attack nuclear submarine is another protagonist of this incident.

In desperation, the Soviet Navy used sonar to search the nearby waters again and again, trying to find its nuclear submarine, but the submarine disappeared as if out of thin air, and could not be found anyway.

All kinds of experts have come out to analyze at this time, and the general meaning is basically that the topography of the Atlantic seabed is complex, and if it falls on the slope like 209, it's fine, but if it falls into the ravine, then don't think about getting it back.

The Chinese Navy also received the news very quickly, and when the naval commander heard the news, he was first shocked and then ecstatic.

Because he suddenly realized why the Soviet Union couldn't find the K432 submarine, the thing didn't sink at all, but was driven away by Chen Xu.

Combined with this intelligence, coupled with the information dictated by Zhong Siyang, it can basically be concluded that a nuclear submarine is heading for China!

However, before the commander of the navy could be happy, Zhong Siyang sent him to hell with a word, Chen Xu actually summoned a group of drug smugglers and mercenaries to drive the priceless nuclear submarine, even professional submariners will make mistakes when piloting the submarine, resulting in the destruction of the boat, and this group of amateur submariners is likely to sink the submarine.

The situation was serious, and the commander of the Navy immediately ordered the submarine force to recruit the most elite team, and the commander of the East China Sea Fleet personally led the team to the waters of Christmas Island to meet with Chen Xu.

Compared to the navy on civilian ships, it has to face a variety of sea conditions, and the speed of advance is not stable. The Alpha class, on the other hand, is not disturbed by any situation on the surface of the sea and can travel at a speed of 20 knots all the time.

When the submarine arrived at the predetermined area, there was nothing above the sea.

Chen Xu was very anxious, he was a little worried that Zhong Siyang might not have brought the information back, and Elder Carl Boat was serious, he judged that it should be that the navy was delayed on the road, and the submarine could always get it by waiting in place.

In fact, compared to the worries of Chen Xu and others, the navy that went to sea to be responsible for receiving them was really anxious, constantly urging the captain to speed up the voyage, and they were worried that the longer the time lasted, the more dangerous the situation of the submarine would be.

But in fact, the Alpha nuclear submarine was very harmonious, because the submarine did not need to sail anymore, Captain Karl commanded everyone to reconnoiter the nearby waters, and found that there were no foreign ships here, and it belonged to a very remote sea.

So at night, especially in the middle of the night when the weather is very bad and there is no moonlight, the captain will be kind enough to let the submarine float and let everyone spend the night outside. Perhaps because everyone really hated submarines, many crew members preferred to wear raincoats and tie ropes to each other on the bumpy hull of the submarine, and then lie down on the flat place to sleep.

Chen Xu wanted to sleep like this, but Captain Carl forbade him to do so, because more than half of the guys who were lying outside in the rain, except for those who were particularly healthy, began to catch colds and colds, and their snot kept flowing out like water.

Chen Xu is the only nuclear reactor operator on the submarine, and if the reactor has problems due to the rain overnight, then everyone's hard work for so many days will be in vain.

After waiting for six days, on the afternoon of the sixth day, when the sun was about to sink below sea level, Karl saw an ocean-going survey ship appear in the periscope......
