1090. U.S. Navy (Last Month Pass)
In the USS Connecticut, Justin Bartlet stood in the command post frowning, his eyes fixed on the sonar screen silently, like a statue.
In the cockpit, more than a dozen naval soldiers were busy operating, constantly reporting parameters to seek instructions, and officers constantly responding to instructions, this huge and incomparable deep-sea monster was tamed in this way, and obediently swam according to the instructions of the soldiers.
A strong middle-aged black man walked up behind Justin, saluted and said, "Colonel, for unknown reasons, the sea monsters have begun to dive deeply, and the deep-sea sub-munitions have entered the launch nest, do you want to attack?" ”
As the captain of the second Seawolf-class nuclear submarine, Justin has always been an excellent soldier, with integrity, bravery, determination, strength, optimism and experience, as if nothing that happened to the submarine could not bother him.
But now, he was in a bit of a dilemma, and this dilemma stemmed from his faith, not from his inability to deal with the things in front of him.
According to the regulations of the Department of Defense and the Navy, the Seawolf-class submarines are usually stationed at the Bangor Naval Base in Washington State, but not long ago, during the joint military exercises between Europe and the United States, the USS Connecticut went to the North Atlantic as a representative of the US Navy.
As a result, two days ago, when North Korea and South Korea were in conflict and in danger of war, the US Navy urgently dispatched the USS Connecticut from Spain to the Atlantic Ocean and through the Indian Ocean to enter the Pacific Ocean to deter North Korea.
This is a request from the South Korean side, because during the border clash between the two sides, South Korea received news that the North Korean submarine force was all in operation to blockade several large ports in South Korea, which made their senior admirals a little panicked.
Speaking of which. The leadership of the US imperialists really hates iron and steel, and South Korea has the top navy in all of Asia. When it comes to the technological content of the navy, even China. It may not be able to overpower it.
However, compared to combat effectiveness, this force is a bit of a problem, and the South Korean Navy, which has an overwhelming superiority in technology, is still a little intimidating North Korea, which is inconceivable to the senior generals of the US imperialists.
The USS Connecticut is an attack nuclear submarine that is mainly used to deal with large ships such as aircraft carriers and destroyers in the camp, and is now being sent to undertake anti-submarine missions at the request of South Korea to deal with North Korea's submarine forces.
North Korea has the world's fourth-largest submarine force, with 80 pieces of equipment, including Romeo-class attack submarines, San-O-class coastal submarines, and Yugo-class pocket submarines.
Although there are a lot of them, North Korea's submarine forces are not very combat-effective. Justin was confident that if war did break out, he would be able to take out all of North Korea's submarines with one Connecticut.
In fact, there was no war between the two sides, and the USS Connecticut had not yet bypassed South Africa into the Indian Ocean when it received information that South and North Korea had resolved their dispute and that they could return to the exercise and continue the exercise.
After getting the news, the officers on the Connecticut almost scolded their mothers in anger, and this war event was a matter of life and death. How did it get to the eyes of the north and south sticks, like a child playing at home?
Just as they were about to return home, the radar crew on the submarine spotted a group of sea monsters.
Qin Shiou's guess was right, the sonar of the Connecticut was too powerful. They first spotted the monsters and sea pythons more than ten meters long through passive sonar, and thought they were civilian submarines at the time, but later turned on active sonar. But they found out that it was not, they encountered a sea monster!
Yes. The sea monster, in the eyes of the officers and soldiers of the USS Connecticut. Those sea creatures more than ten meters long on the sonar screen are sea monsters!
After discovering the sea monsters, Justin immediately reported the information to Bangor Naval Base as the captain, because this group of sea monsters was a bit abnormal, and it was unbelievable that a king squid had collected evidence of the existence of metal.
In the opinion of Justin and others, this group of sea monsters should be hunting, or rather, a group of unknown sea monsters are chasing a king squid.
Through the sonar detector, they can only distinguish the identity of the king squid, as for the monsters that are more than ten meters long and as thick as a sea snake chasing after the king squid, they don't know what they are.
It is now accepted in the scientific community that the length limit of sea snakes is four meters, and it cannot be longer. And now these monsters they have found, the shortest one must be fourteen meters, and the shape is extremely terrifying!
Moreover, it is also recognized by the scientific community that the king squid is the apex predator of the sea, and the only ones that can compete with it are sperm whales and orcas, and other creatures can only be its food.
But what the officers saw now was a group of super sea snake-like monsters chasing down the king squid......
If Qin Shiou knew about the officers' speculation, he would have remembered a Chinese joke: a tractor broke down on the road, and a Mercedes Benz helped drag it away, telling the driver to honk his horn if he drove fast. A BMW overtook behind, and the Mercedes-Benz driver was furious and accelerated wildly to chase behind. What the traffic police saw was: Mercedes-Benz and BMW drag racing, with a tractor following behind and constantly honking the horn to ask for overtaking.
Similarly, it was obviously the king squid who was leading the sea snakes forward, why did it become the sea snakes chasing and killing the king squid?
But this kind of thing is impossible to figure out unless the parties involved, anyway, after receiving the report from the officers, the Bangor Naval Base also became interested, asking them to find a way to capture these sea monsters, drag them back and study them, maybe there will be new discoveries.
The navy is not interested in the discovery of new species, but is interested in a new type of sea monster that can hunt down the king squid.
As a result, the Connecticut chased all the way, and it seemed that it was about to catch up with these stupid sea monsters, and these sea monsters actually chose to dive, and judging from the screen, these monsters also scattered, as if they had discovered the Connecticut.
Justin couldn't figure this out, the submarine was still some distance away from these monsters, how could they possibly spot the submarine behind it?
Sergeant Major Kim Worthworth reported on the current situation and waited patiently, knowing that Justin was not a good choice, because the base required them to bring back specimens of the sea monster, and once they used depth charges, then all they could bring back was tissue specimens of the sea monsters.
But now the problem is that the sea monsters are very cunning, and they are drilling into the deep sea one by one, and if they don't attack again, they won't even be able to get tissue specimens.
Thinking of this, Justin quickly made a choice, waved his hand fiercely, and shouted, "Fire!" ”
As soon as his order was given, the soldiers of the fire team had not yet carried it out, and the submarine swayed suddenly.
Justin was fine, he was holding on to the handrail of the command post, and the hapless sergeant major was caught off guard, and he staggered a step before falling to the ground.
Suddenly, a red light flashed on the top of the submarine command module, and a piercing whine sounded while flashing, which meant that the submarine had encountered a crisis! (To be continued......)
