Chapter 237: The Price of an Aircraft Carrier

All the facilities on board the "Lincoln" did not prevent it from becoming the biggest torch of the night.

Although some sailors had thrown a lifebuoy into the sea before they received the order to "abandon the ship", none of the personnel on the entire aircraft carrier could escape the judgment of fate!

This is the sorrow of mankind and the persistence of soldiers. It's a pity that they used it in the wrong place.

The simplest thing is: they perished in the waters of the Arab Divine League - why did you come here?

It is to spread your so-called democratic words, so I am sorry that this is the territory of Allah, not a place where any infidels can do whatever they want.

If it's to occupy our land and resources, then I'm even more embarrassed, I didn't negotiate with you!

This is the most rustic, simplest and most ruthless response of the Arabs.

Uninvited guests, uninvited. With ill intentions, it is either a traitor or a thief!

For this kind of guest, it is better to run away.

Perhaps because they were arrogant, the American soldiers did not feel rejected or revolted by others. Perhaps, in their eyes, what they represent is the most righteous force - even if there is death, it is inevitable accidental injury. And we, the United States, are the only ones who can save the world!

From alien invasion of Earth to alien creatures wreaking havoc on the world, America's high psychological superiority has gradually taken over people's minds with Hollywood's cultural invasion.

Wherever there is incomprehensible hostility, just look for the United States!

And in reality? Where is there any place on earth where there is still a flame of war, where is there no American fanning the flames?

The United States has extended its sovereignty and ideology to the whole world. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, China became the only target of the United States or NATO. Every penny that China invests in military spending may be branded as the "Huaxia threat theory"!

The main public opinion is controlled by the West, and the Chinese people can only cry out in vain.

But this qiē is not impossible to change.

For example...... the fall of the "Lincoln" is the best commentary.

Only when your fists are enough to pierce and break through the protective mask of your opponent can you earn true respect!

…………

The flames triumphantly paused around the ammunition depot. It's like a neat phalanx, waiting for the clarion call for the final attack.

Everyone in the "Lincoln" control center knew what was about to happen, what they were about to face. This qiē is doomed by now, and it cannot be changed, and it cannot be solved by throwing a few more lifebuoys.

Once the ammunition depot explodes, the fire continues to be uncontrollable, and the only inevitable fate for the aircraft carrier is to sink.

The whirlpool formed when the 100,000-ton aircraft carrier sank is enough to suck everyone who jumps into the sea right now into the sea!

All the American troops on the "Lincoln" knew that they had gotten into the iron coffin; Everyone knew that the detonation of the ammunition depot was sooner or later; Everyone knows their ultimate fate, but everyone has the mentality of winning the jackpot - both horizontal and vertical are dead...... What if I'm lucky enough not to die?

The wish is very good, relatively speaking, the next sentence is very cruel:

Reality is colder!

…………

It is common sense that a missile with the fuse removed will not explode. But it is also common knowledge that quantitative change causes qualitative change.

Under the tireless roasting of the flames, when the temperature in the ammunition depot rises to a certain level, when someone is angry because of dissatisfaction, it is a foregone conclusion.

I don't know which warhead failed to withstand the high temperatures, and finally released itself hysterically; It is also not clear whether it was the missiles or artillery shells that began to explode unexpectedly, which caused the final result. In short, under the licking of the flames, the Grim Reaper conquered this strong fortress again without any suspense!

Next, it's time for the harvest.

…………

Missiles without guidance have finally returned to their essence -- just rockets.

When these powerful "rockets" wreaked havoc in the hull of the aircraft carrier, all American GIs felt the treatment that the Iraqi people once "enjoyed"!

Being torn to shreds in an instant by a sudden missile is already the best ending. If you are instantly passed through your body by these things that don't have long eyes, you will be sober again...... What kind of horror picture should that be?!

Missiles and artillery shells revealed their murderous nature, roaming the sturdy and fragile body of the Lincoln. What it brings is the unguardable power of death; What was taken away was a broken soul that would not be seen.

At this moment, the USS Lincoln, which represents the highest military ship technology of mankind, and the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, which symbolizes the most powerful armed force of the United States, ignited a string of irrepressible fireworks in the face of the most incompelling and bizarre hostile forces, and inside the hull that thought it was the strongest and most resistant to strikes!

A cloud of fire, with billowing black smoke, slowly rose above the "Lincoln".

Almost at the same time, the hull of the ship, as wide and sturdy as a city wall, was like a wine barrel with countless valves opened, and from every hole, a dazzling flame erupted!

This is the last smiling face of the Grim Reaper. Because it's not just this big ship that he's about to take with him!

…………

The moonlight in the Gulf of Oman tonight is unusually gentle, and even the surrounding waters seem warm. But not a single officer of the U.S. Navy considered it a symbol of peace and meekness!

That damn vertical attack missile seems to have been used up in the wave of attacks just now, and it is temporarily impossible to organize the next round of offensives. So, taking advantage of the now, is it time to break through the difficulties and dangers and rush forward to the Indian Ocean to join the Fifth Fleet?

The answer is yes.

But the road is ......

The Lincoln burst its largest chrysanthemum. Four steam turbines were surrounded by flames, and the propeller shafts sent all the heat to the four propellers, so the topic that American experts had been entangled with for a long time arose.

On the aircraft carrier "Lincoln", is it propelled by old-fashioned propellers, or waterjet propulsion without propellers?

The ghost knows that neither the Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier nor the more powerful "Ford" class ever adopted a waterjet propulsion scheme!

The Lincoln's four drive shafts, as always, rotated to give the propeller maximum speed. However, the propeller is gone!

A warship that has lost power is not even as good as a target ship that has been hit!

But "Lincoln" still retained his dignity. And the reason why it can still have the last shred of face is only because of the sudden discovery of a certain Yan Jun's conscience!

"Feifei and Yue'er, if you sell this big lump of steel to the scrap yard, how much will it be worth?"
