55 General, the plan failed
Lin Guoxiang didn't notice the expressions of the other generals at this moment, but continued to ask:
"Black Praetorian Guard, what's going on at the crossing?"
"General, our path to the crossing is blocked by boulders, and it will take a little time to get around....."
As soon as the driver answered, the technician next to him reported: "General, the oxygen supply of the Black Praetorian is already insufficient. ”
"Not enough oxygen?" Lin Guoxiang frowned, and then ordered again: "Black Guard, I order you to open the escape pod immediately." ”
Oxygen supply has always been a problem for the design of deep-sea mechas, and in the design of [Black Guard], the oxygen supply can only last for an hour and a half.
Some people may think that the mecha is so big, wouldn't it be nice to bring a few more sets of oxygen production equipment, how can there be a shortage of oxygen supply.
But in fact, the oxygen that the driver needs to breathe is only a small part, and the reactor combustion to provide power also needs oxygen, and it needs a large amount of oxygen, and it is the big consumer of oxygen.
For this order, the two pilots did not hesitate, they also knew that the mecha was running out of oxygen.
So the two of them left the driver's position and boarded the escape pod.
Fifteen minutes later, the escape pod surfaced.
"Quick, the rescue team is close, lower the rope ladder and take them to the plane!" Lin Guoxiang hurriedly ordered.
Soon, the two pilots were taken on the plane, and because of the long stay in the deep sea, the two pilots were a little sluggish.
At the first glance of Lin Guoxiang, one of the drivers was dumbfounded, and said with a bitter face: "General.... Our mission.... Failed! ”
A few generals were very strange, they were about to come to praise a few words, but they didn't expect the driver to say that.
Lin Guoxiang was surprised.
"Failure? You did a good job this time, and the mission was very successful, huh? ”
Scott next to him smiled, and his tone was sour: "General Lin, the driver of your branch is really modest. ”
The other generals also laughed, but under the smile, there was something called jealousy.
As for the driver's words, they didn't care at all.
How can such a successful bombing be a failure?
Lin Guoxiang didn't think the driver was modest, and he continued to ask: "Did you throw the nuclear bomb astray?" ”
"No, General....." replied the pilot earnestly, "we did drop the nuclear bomb into the crater where the crossing was located, but we had just boarded the escape pod and separated from the mecha, but I saw that there was still white light spilling out of the cracks in the big crater. ”
What the? And light? The faces of several generals instantly became solemn.
If the crossing had really been blown up, it would have been pitch black, and there would have been no light at all.
What the hell is going on, several generals still want to ask, but the technicians have already given them more accurate answers.
"General, the probe has sent back the latest photos of the crossing."
Several generals hurried to the big screen and stared at the pictures on the big screen.
I saw a pile of boulders accumulating under the pitch black seabed, and white light flashed in the gaps of those boulders.
There is really light, how is this possible, is it really as the pilot in front of him said, this mission failed, and the crossing was not blown up at all?
No way, no way.
The generals immediately rejected this idea, and even if they could not blow up the crossing completely, they would be able to blow up at least half of the crossing under the power of that explosion.
That's right, blow up half, blow up half, then the crossing will shrink, and the larger monsters will no longer be able to drill out of the crossing.
The reason why there is still light must be this reason.
Although the results of this operation were not ideal, at least the invading monster level was contained.
It's impossible for a high-level monster to get out of a half-sized crossing.
And with this successful experience, it is a big deal that several branches are spending a year to build a few more deep-water mechs and completely blow up the crossing with nuclear bombs.
Even mechs don't need to be built, they directly use deep-water nuclear bombs and torpedoes, and cover bombing penetrations.
Anyway, there are no monsters guarding the crossing now, so I don't worry about the torpedo being intercepted.
I have to say that the thinking of several generals was really divergent at this time, and they were even stunned, perhaps because they were unwilling to accept the news of the failure of the plan.
So he imagines some possibilities for success, and even deliberately justifies himself.
It's better to hear a plan that is half successful than a complete failure, and it will also make them feel a little better.
Otherwise, it would be too worrying for several major divisions to spend a year building five mechas, arranging various tactics, and sacrificing eight excellent pilots, but in exchange for the failure of the plan.
However, the technicians didn't have so many ideas, and just when several generals were comforting themselves, a technician stabbed them in the heart.
"General, we detected the monster's life signal near the crossing."
"This is a new monster, and the monster energy level is the fourth order."
"The latest photo sent back by the probe, the pile of boulders at the crossing, has been arched by the monster."
............
An hour later, Lin Guoxiang stood on the deck of the giant ship, the whole fleet was returning, at this moment, his face looked more vicissitudes than before, and he seemed to be ten years old in a few days.
He looked back in the direction of the crossing and sighed softly, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.
The bombing plan was a complete failure, and a year's preparation of the five major divisions was in vain, and all efforts were in vain.
He didn't know if he would be able to see the day when humans would completely defeat the monster before he died.
Ahem......
He coughed lightly and crouched over the railing, his eyes fixed on the rapidly receding water, but his face was full of bitterness.
At this time, the assistant Xiao Zhang stepped forward: "Old general, it's time to take medicine." ”
Lin Guoxiang waved his hand weakly, did not speak, just raised his head again, looked in the direction of the crossing, and his eyes were confused.
Xiao Zhang was also very helpless about this, he didn't know how to persuade him, the failure of the bombing plan was indeed a big blow to Lin Guoxiang.
At this time, the phone rang suddenly, Xiao Zhang picked up the phone and glanced at it, and whispered to Lin Guoxiang:
"Old general, it's Lin Feng's phone."
"Oh!?" Lin Guoxiang turned around, his vicissitudes of life instantly regained a little brilliance, and he took the phone from Xiao Zhang's hand.
Pressing the answer button, Lin Feng's voice came from the phone.
"Old general, PPDC TV is broadcasting the news that you blew up the crossing, did you really succeed?"
"Huh!" Lin Guoxiang smiled bitterly, "How can success be so easy, you will immediately see the news of the failure of the plan on TV." ”
Uh, really?
Lin Feng looked at the TV again, but saw that the host had changed, and the content of the news had also changed.
“...... In the early hours of this morning, a group of hackers hacked into the official website of PPDC, changed the information on the official website, and spread rumors that the five major branches carried out a plan to bomb the crossing and successfully blew up the crossing ......"
“...... The Pacific Rim Council has just held a press conference, which severely condemned the hacker gang that invaded the attack, and at the same time severely criticized the perfunctory and irresponsible attitude of the staff of various PPDC TV stations, precisely because they lack the ability to distinguish between true and false information, which has made TV stations a rumor-mongering tool for hacker gangs......
“...... We must not believe rumors, do not spread rumors, do not spread rumors, and we should unite to face the invasion of monsters together..... It's everyone's job to defend against monsters......"
Seeing this news, Lin Feng was a little stunned, this is not the same as what Lin Guoxiang said.
Are you sure this is the news that the plan has failed?
