Chapter 165: Sinking the Yuri (2)
Near the Northern Mariana Trench, the Soviet submarine Yuri ran wildly all the way, hiding in Tibet to avoid the anti-submarine attack of the Tang Army.
In the command room of the Yuri, Aloyev was already sweating at this time, and he was arrogant and now had no self-confidence.
"Did you contact the Dao base?" He shouted in a deep voice.
"Not yet! We are suffering from strong electromagnetic interference, radio failure! The signal soldier replied.
"Report, passive sonar detects a large number of high-density sonar scans ahead!" Sonar soldiers give an emergency warning.
"Make a U-turn now, head 210, dive 180!" Aloyev gave the order to circumvent.
"Sonar scan signal detected again in direction 210!"
"Turn 170! Dive 190! ”
"Sonar scan signal detected again in direction 170!"
"We seem to be surrounded!"
"Damn it!" Alloyev shouted angrily as he slammed his fist on the map of the command table.
"General, you're trying too hard, we'll be discovered!" A small staff officer weakly reminded.
Aloyev glared at him angrily, wanting to be mad but holding back, it was indeed his fault, it was possible to expose the location of the Yuri just now.
"General, it's only a matter of time before we are discovered, why don't we take the initiative to float now, otherwise they really dare to sink us!" The adjutant made a suggestion.
"No way!" Aloyev immediately vetoed, he said: "This is the exercise area of the Don Army, and once we float, it will be tantamount to trespassing on their exercise area, according to international practice." They will directly capture us, which will never be allowed, and the face of the Soviet Navy will be lost. In addition, Yuri is our most secret strategic nuclear submarine, if it is captured by the Tang Army, do you know what it means? ”
"It means that the Soviet strategic nuclear submarines are no longer a secret in front of the Tang Empire, and they will deduce all the secrets of the Soviet Union's nuclear submarines through reverse engineering, then the Soviet Navy will lose the ability to carry out a secondary nuclear counterattack!" The adjutant said with a wry smile.
"Find a ridge or trench right now!"
"A ridge has been detected in the direction of 305!"
"Lean over now, everyone is ready to hibernate!"
Hibernation means that all actions of the submarine will be temporarily stopped. Including the operation of the nuclear reactor, all crew members are not allowed to speak, move, or make any sound. Like an animal in hibernation.
This is the best way to evade anti-submarine forces, but it is also equivalent to sitting idly by, and once the opponent's anti-submarine forces do not leave for a long time, they will fall into an extremely passive situation.
On the sea. After receiving the report, the 1st Anti-submarine Task Force of the Pacific Fleet of the Tang Army arrived as soon as possible. More than a dozen anti-submarine ships moved closer to the center from all directions, pulled the net to investigate, and constantly narrowed the encirclement.
Under the surface of the sea, the four Qingyu-class attack nuclear submarines of the Tang Army followed all the way and suddenly lost their target information.
"The Sheepfish report, lost the target of the Yuri, request air anti-submarine support!"
In the sky, the most advanced TP-3 anti-submarine aircraft of the Don Army are dropping sonar buoys over a large area.
"The sonar buoy array is not abnormal!"
"There is no abnormality in the infrared signal!"
"There is no abnormality to the sea radar!"
"Yuri is gone!"
"The last signal is in Area 532!"
"Activate the magnetic anomaly detector and re-search the adjacent area around 532!"
"Magnetic anomaly found in Area 533!"
"Data in Transfer......
"Compare the data from the 533 Regional Marine Survey. There are no magnetic anomaly records! ”
The Pacific Ocean is the inner lake of the Tang Empire, especially the Mariana Trench is within the absolute defense circle of the Tang Empire. Zhang Meng had already issued an order to conduct a comprehensive survey of the seabed topography and landforms in the absolute defense circle, and set up a database to exploit the seabed resources and deal with submarines in wartime.
Now that Paisan came in handy, Yuri didn't know about these things, thinking that she could disappear by hiding next to the ridge. Unfortunately, it was unlucky, there were no metal deposits in the area, and the 20,000-ton tonnage behemoth of the Yuri was found to have a pressure-resistant shell made of a large amount of metal and a huge metal magnetic field reflection signal.
"It's supposed to be Yuri!"
"Notify the fleet immediately! Prepare to launch anti-submarine EMP! ”
A few years ago, when the Tang Army destroyed the British Royal Navy, it used EMP electromagnetic pulse bombs, and after that actual combat test, it was found that EMP had limited impact on the sea surface below 100 meters, resulting in the escape of the British Dreadnought nuclear submarine and almost caused a devastating disaster.
Tang Jun learned lessons and quickly invested manpower in the study of underwater electromagnetic pulse bombs, and after hard work, he finally found a breakthrough and successfully developed anti-submarine EMP electromagnetic pulse bombs.
However, compared with the EMP EMP bomb released in the air, the anti-submarine EMP EMP EMP bomb has a much smaller range of action, and the EMP EMP bomb of the same power, if the air release radius is 50 km, the anti-submarine action radius is only 5 km, and the power is greatly reduced.
However, if the approximate area of the submarine target is locked, then the release of EMP EMP bombs will also achieve good results.
Soon, the anti-submarine fleet of the Tang Army, based on the information provided by the anti-submarine aircraft, successively irradiated sonar and radar to the location of the Yuri, and wanted to force the Yuri out of the water.
The calculation of the Tang Army was to capture the largest strategic nuclear submarine of the Soviet Union in order to master the most advanced nuclear submarine technology of the Soviet Union and facilitate future operations against the Soviet Union.
Under the surface of the sea, the sound of sonar hitting the hatch echoed everywhere in the Yuri's cabin, and each sound seemed to hit the hearts of the Soviet officers and soldiers, making them break out in a cold sweat and look at General Aloyev pitifully.
At this moment, Alloyev was also surprised in his heart, he never thought that such a concealment could be discovered by the Tang Army, which shows how strong the Tang Army's anti-submarine capability is.
He is unwilling, if he rises to the surface of the sea in this way, it will undoubtedly humiliate him personally and humiliate the Soviet Union, and because the strategic nuclear submarine is the last killer weapon of the Soviet Union to threaten the Tang Empire, if the Tang Empire has the information, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Resolutely do not float, just consume like that.
Aloyev made a decision. Gesturing to every Soviet officer and soldier to calm down.
Seeing that the Yuri did not surrender or react, the commander of the Don Army immediately ordered the launch of anti-submarine EMP electromagnetic pulse bombs.
A strong electromagnetic pulse wave spreads in all directions. There was no sound, and the surrounding fish were unaffected, but the Yuri's passive sonar reception system was fatally attacked.
"Ahh
There was a scream, very loud, and the moment Yuri's passive sonar was attacked by an electromagnetic pulse bomb, the sonar soldier's eardrums were shattered, and he screamed on the spot. Due to deafness in both ears. Not hearing the commander's words telling him to shut up, he was even more frightened and screamed in horror.
"Damn it!" Aloyev was so angry that he smoked. ran over and kicked the sonar soldier unconscious, but unfortunately it was too late.
On the sea and in the sky, all the anti-submarine warships and anti-submarine planes of the Tang Army almost simultaneously detected the screams.
The real magic of anti-submarine EMP is to attack the opponent's passive sonar system. That instantaneous electromagnetic surge was enough to make an experienced and well-trained sonar soldier instantly lose control and scream. Thus exposing the target.
"7 degrees 27 minutes 40 seconds north latitude, 171 degrees 43 minutes 20 seconds east longitude, 210 meters deep!"
"Multi-purpose anti-submarine torpedo attack!"
"Launch!"
"Launch!"
"Launch!"
……
Various anti-submarine torpedoes were launched from anti-submarine aircraft, anti-submarine helicopters, anti-submarine destroyers on the surface, and nuclear submarines under water, and the targets were all aimed at the detected position of the Yuri.
"Multiple torpedoes are approaching!"
At this moment, inside the Yuri, Aloyev already knew that he was exposed, so he ordered all the planes to be turned on. As soon as the machine was turned on, I received a report from the active sonar soldier.
Aloyev gritted his teeth and hurriedly ordered: "Launch the source of interference!" Float up immediately. Full speed ahead once the power is restored! ”
In a hurry, the Yuri nuclear submarine fired several submarine-launchers with a source of interference, and sure enough, several incoming torpedoes were diverted.
"Boom!"
After a series of explosions, the powerful shock wave generated by the huge explosive force of the anti-submarine torpedoes of the Don Army caused the Yuri to shake from side to side, the surrounding ridges cracked, and the boulders rolled down and smashed on the hull of the submarine with a loud noise.
However, the Yuri had too few sources of interference and was hit by two captured torpedoes.
In an instant, the Yuri was violently attacked, electrical sparks flashed, the water pressure of the pipeline burst, and the personnel were shaken to the ground, and more than a dozen people were injured.
Fortunately, the Yuri was equipped with powerful reactive armor, which unloaded most of the blast and kept the submarine from sinking. However, the fish-scale reactive armor of the submarine's shell fell off a large piece, and the originally dark outer wall of the submarine revealed a piece of fish belly white, which looked very ugly.
"Cabin 3 is badly damaged!"
"Power System Restoration!"
"The communication system is still failing!"
……
"Multiple torpedoes approached the middle ...... at high speed"
"! This is going to be beaten to the death! Aloyev was suddenly sad, the huge Yuri nuclear submarine was extremely protective, but it could not withstand a series of saturation attacks.
"Lock on to a target and we're going to fight back! I'm going to pull a cushion when I'm dying! "Aloyev has exploded, he will never allow to be beaten without fighting back, that's not his personality.
Whew! Whew!
A series of explosions in the electrical equipment inside the Yuri submarine sent out sparks, and then plunged into darkness.
"Our equipment is all broken!"
"It's an EMP attack!" A Soviet officer suddenly shouted.
At this time, the United States and the Soviet Union had already discovered the EMP weapon, after all, they were also conducting nuclear tests, and sooner or later they would find something that would destroy electronic and electrical equipment in an instant.
"! It's so shameless! If you have the ability to fight with me openly, what is this! Aloyev scolded again, very unconvinced.
When Tang Jun used EMP just now, Yuri was in a shutdown state, and only a small part of the equipment such as passive sonar was turned on with batteries, so it was not greatly affected, but now the nuclear reaction is turned on, and all the electrical and electronic equipment is powered by electricity, and all of them are destroyed at once.
Boom!
A series of explosions sounded again, this time they all hit the hull of the Yuri nuclear submarine solidly, and the powerful defense capability that the Soviet Union spent a lot of money to build played its role again, and this time it even resisted, but the reactive armor on the outer surface was almost all consumed, and the submarine was snow-white, and it could no longer block the next round of attacks.
"I didn't think our submarine would be quite resistant to beating!" In the darkness, a Soviet soldier smiled bitterly, his voice full of tremors.
Squeak squeak!
Before the words fell, a loud metal snapping sound came from the hull of the submarine.
"We're going to be crushed into meatloaf!" Aloyev also smiled wryly, with a kind of sadness, he felt that the submarine was sinking rapidly out of control, and the huge water pressure was about to crush the hull of the submarine. (To be continued......)
