Chapter 491: Sea Monster Extermination War
In the waters near the Ryukyu Islands, artillery roars, and a special battle is breaking out.
The two Kongo-class destroyers and two Chikugo-class frigates of the Japanese Navy are encircling and suppressing a sea monster that is hundreds of meters long.
This sea monster looks a bit like a crocodile, but it has two heads, a black body, a bony spur rod on its back, and much longer limbs, and it may weigh more than 10,000 tons, but it moves quickly in the sea, sometimes diving to the bottom of the sea, launching fierce attacks, and obviously has extremely high intelligence.
Not far away, on the surface of the sea, there was a cloud of oil and broken objects, which were the traces of a Chunchao-class submarine after being sunk by a sea monster.
In such a close combat, the naval guns on the four warships did not have much effect, because the sea monsters rarely showed the water, and the speed of the naval guns was also difficult to keep up with the movement of the monsters, and it often took a bit of luck to hit a shot.
The Phalanx close defense system with a smaller caliber is too powerful to even break through the thick scales on the monster's body, and can only tickle the opponent.
Missile weapons are also not easy to lock onto attacks, not to mention anti-aircraft missiles, anti-ship missiles and ground-to-ground missiles both require a certain attack distance, and when the monster attacks, it must have approached the warship.
Torpedoes can attack underwater targets, and they are also powerful, but they have great requirements for guidance and the underwater environment, and the sea monster often sets off violent currents when it acts, and the torpedo is difficult to hit, and the sea monster is very smart and knows how to avoid torpedoes.
The two-headed alligator sea monster was completely enraged by several missiles and shells, braving the gunfire to rush closer to a Kongo-class destroyer, a tumbling, huge tail slapping in the middle of the destroyer. The part of the warship that was hit was in shambles. Blazing. The entire warship was almost cut in two, and the sea water poured in through the huge breach, and the warship began to roll on its side.
The other three warships frantically unleashed all sorts of attacks on the sea monster, useful or useless.
But the two-headed alligator krakin immediately sank to the surface, dodging most of the attacks, and pounced on a Chikugo-class frigate.
Just as the sea monster surfaced and launched an attack on the frigate, two F-22 fighters arrived. A series of eight missiles fell from the sky and hit the sea monster.
The sea monster howled, but still tore the frigate to pieces with its two monster heads and sharp claws.
The two fighters almost launched all the weapons they could use in a few seconds, and the sea monster finally couldn't stand it, and there were dozens of wounds all over its body, and the nearby sea was dyed red, but the sea monster with extremely tenacious vitality did not die, but sank to the bottom of the sea hundreds of meters and left quickly.
Rely on sonar systems. Two warships fired several torpedoes, but they were completely useless. The pursuit was stopped.
After just over ten minutes, the two injured warships sank one after another, looking at the surviving sailors who were struggling on the sea, on the bridge of the King Kong-class destroyer, the fleet commander gritted his teeth and said: "It's all to blame for the damned Xinhua Kingdom and Hualong Kingdom, which actually imposed arms sales restrictions on our Japanese country, if there were enough intelligent missiles and intelligent torpedoes, the three warships would not have sunk, and it was even more impossible for that monster to escape." ”
In order to eradicate the sea monsters and reopen the sea routes, powerful navies of various countries are dispatched to clear the waters near the coastline and important shipping lanes, or to escort important fleets.
As a result of these efforts, small and semi-enclosed sea areas such as the Mediterranean, the Bay of Bengal, the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the Gulf of Mexico have basically eradicated sea monsters and restored some shipping and fisheries.
The Mediterranean Sea is due to the combined forces of the coastal countries, and the Bay of Bengal and the Gulf of Mexico are due to the vigorous encirclement and suppression of the Black Dragon Army and the Lijian Navy.
Among them, the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea were able to eliminate sea monsters because the Xinhua Navy was equipped with a large number of intelligent missiles and intelligent torpedoes.
In the 21st century, the various weapons invented by humans are powerful enough to destroy their own planet, but in the end, the targets of these weapons are their own kind, and they are not very effective in fighting sea monsters.
Because the sea monster is fast, has a thick skin, and is still hidden under the surface of the sea, it is difficult to deal with ordinary weapons, either the power is small, or the reaction is slow, and it is difficult to lock.
The ships of the navies of various countries have all suffered heavy losses in the process of clearing and suppressing, because once the sea monster is provoked and cannot be defeated, the warship with a speed of only 30 knots will definitely not be able to escape.
With the exception of a few major countries with strong navies, the navies of other countries have retracted into the coastal waters after several encounters and learned a painful lesson, and can only lick their wounds while adopting passive defensive measures.
The speed of the intelligent torpedo is as high as 250 knots, which is completely capable of chasing sea monsters, and the intelligent missile has a strong tracking and identification ability, once the target is locked, it is almost impossible to fail on the sea surface.
This is the real effective weapon, the Xinhua Navy and the Black Dragon Army rely on these two types of new weapons to carry out long-range attacks, in terms of exterminating sea monsters, the two countries have suffered the least losses, but the results achieved the most.
After satisfying the needs of the navies of the two countries, the Galaxy Military Industry Trading Company and Xinhua State, which had obtained the authorization for the production of these two weapons, also sold them to other countries, but according to Ye Quan's instructions, they were treated separately.
Naturally, some friendly countries are going all out to supply them, while the Japanese and some Western countries, which had previously imposed a ban on arms sales to Xinhua, have implemented a temporary policy of restricting arms sales under the pretext of temporary lack of production capacity and sensitive technology.
The so-called 30 years of Hedong and 30 years of Hexi, now the situation has completely reversed.
This is also to treat others in the way of others!
made the Xinhua people breathe out of the evil breath in their chests.
However, the current situation is not optimistic, according to the observation of the scientific research center of the Crystal Palace base, the speed of weapon development is far from keeping up with the growth rate of the sea monster, even if it has intelligent weapons, the navies of various countries are more and more powerless against the sea monster, and the losses are getting bigger and bigger.
After the heavy losses of the navies of various countries, they have increased their military spending to enhance their naval strength, especially those countries with long coastlines and relatively developed economies.
For example, Xinhua has increased its military spending by more than 300 billion yuan, of which the army, navy, and air force and the gradually growing space force have received 50 percent, 20 percent, 10 percent, and 20 percent of the shares, respectively.
After the Wehrmacht Navy received 170 billion yuan in military spending, in addition to making up for the war losses, it was to speed up the upgrading of naval equipment, such as the purchase of 24 'Black Whirlwind' multi-role fighter-bombers.
The number of such fighters and the Black Dragon Army's equipment is less than 50, and the Wehrmacht has purchased 24 before, which have just been put into service, and as a result, in the process of exterminating the sea monster, the greatest meritorious service.
Because the Black Whirlwind fighter-bomber is a quasi-fifth-generation fighter, it has a variety of combat capabilities such as ground, air, and anti-ship, and can carry intelligent torpedoes after simple modification, as well as the advantages of fast speed and large range.
Once the sea monster is spotted, the Black Whirlwind fighter can strike quickly, and the efficiency is not comparable to that of slow-moving ships, and it can ensure the safety of the 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone off the coast.
The reason why the Celestial Army has received 20% and twice the share of the Army is that in the operation against the sea monster, the power of the Celestial Army occupies an extremely important position, and it is found that the sea monster cannot be separated from the monitoring of satellites, and among the means of attack, space-based weapons from space are also the fastest and most powerful.
As long as the sea monster is locked by a satellite on the sea surface and does not sink to the bottom in time, it will be seriously injured or even killed by a blow from space.
If you want to effectively exterminate the sea monsters, you must master their traces, and the technical department of the Hidden Dragon Base has developed a new generation of marine remote sensing detection satellites, which can detect large creatures thousands of meters below the sea surface, so that the sea monsters have almost no place to hide.
At present, the Hidden Dragon Base has launched hundreds of such satellites to form a global network, which has tracked and locked more than 6,000 sea monsters operating in various sea areas, and secretly eliminated and captured more than 500 sea monsters through undersea forces for relevant research.
Unfortunately, although more than 98% of the world's sea monsters have been locked, it is still unknown how these sea monsters appeared on the earth?
It is only known that when these sea monsters were first discovered, they were mostly small young beasts, and in just a few months, they could grow into huge monsters by eating a lot of food.
Ye Quan had his own plans, and instead of acting as a savior, he exposed the powerful Skynet system to the outside world, but sold some of the newly developed marine remote sensing technology to various governments.
After the application of the new generation of ocean exploration satellites, countries such as Xinhua, Lijian, Rakshasa and the European Union are no longer spinning around like headless flies, but can monitor most of the sea areas and carry out joint sea and air strikes against exposed sea monsters, and have achieved a lot of results.
