Chapter 204: The Verge

The Faurecia-class submarines immediately entered a state of alert, after all, they received the task of monitoring the fleet of the three countries, and at this time, an unknown submarine approached, so they were naturally very sensitive.

"Sir, a fleet has appeared on the sea, and it has been confirmed that it is the fleet of the Three Kingdoms, but the Aegis ship is missing."

"Dive 50 meters now, the whole boat is silent!"

Inside the silent submarine, people breathed lightly, except for the slight sound of the machine turning.

The sonar man was listening nervously.

"Large submarines are already close to 30 km!"

"Large submarines are already close to 20 km!"

"The surface fleet is approaching 35 km!"

……

At this time, the Faurecia-class submarine was like an assassin hidden in the sea, quietly waiting for the distant target to approach.

Geert suddenly felt something unusual.

How can there be a distance between this fleet of the three countries and the submarines, and the submarines are in front and the surface fleet is behind.

Is it like the battle formation of an aircraft carrier formation, so that the submarine is on alert?

I remember that during the day, news came from the base that the air force had used planes to drive the fleet of the three countries away from the area where the B2 accident occurred.

At night, why did they dare to rush over again, was it because there was no threat from planes?

"Report on the speed of underwater and surface targets!"

The sonar officer immediately said: "The underwater target has a speed of 30 knots!" The two destroyers in front of the surface target had a speed of 30 knots, and the rear ones had a speed of 28 knots. ”

"Huh? How do you feel that the fleet of the three countries is chasing that submarine? Geert muttered to himself.

One officer said, "Sir, do we need to launch a preemptive strike?" ”

Geert thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "The order from above is to closely monitor this fleet and wait for the latest order, which means that we have no right to make the first move!" ”

"Okay, then let's keep waiting!"

Geert said: "We had better be able to distinguish the relationship between the submarine and the fleet of the three countries, otherwise we will be more passive in the event of a conflict." ”

"Sir, I think once we are attacked, it is better to sink that submarine first, otherwise it will be very bad for us to be caught up and down."

"Jack, keep an eye on that submarine!" Geert shouted at the sonarman.

The sonar man raised his hand and made a gesture.

And casually reported the latest situation, "That submarine is 12 kilometers from us!" ”

Suddenly, the sonar officer exclaimed: "God, that submarine is turning to the east, it's accelerating!" Velocity...... Speed at least ...... At least 50 knots! ”

Geert's eyes widened, "How is it possible to have a submarine with a speed of 50 knots?" ”

For a while, in the spacious command room, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"I order, immediately catch up!" Geert gave the order.

At a depth of 250 meters, the massive hull of the Faurecia-class nuclear submarine began to turn and gradually accelerate from a standstill.

"Sir, isn't our mission to spy on the fleet of the Three Kingdoms?"

"In comparison, this guy who can run 50 knots underwater is more valuable, let's go ahead and have a look." Geert explained simply.

But only a few minutes later, with a sigh from the sonarist, "I can't hear it anymore, it's gone!" ”

The command room suddenly became lively, "What the hell is it?" I bet it's not a submarine! ”

"It's true that no submarine can have a high speed of 50 knots, but who knows, now the technology is developing too fast, maybe someone else has, after all, there were 40 knots of high-speed nuclear submarines a few decades ago."

"But if it's a submarine, even if we can't catch up, we shouldn't be able to hear it so quickly!"

"Wait a minute, why is that a submarine? Couldn't it be a huge fish in the sea? Keep in mind that the speed of the Pacific sailfish reaches nearly 60 knots. ”

"No, how can that guy compare himself to a swordfish?"

……

"Don't make any noise, it's all quiet!" The sonar officer suddenly shouted, "The fleet of the three kingdoms is coming towards us!" ”

Geert looked at the others, and several of them immediately understood that because they were chasing the big guy who had just disappeared, they should have been exposed to the sonar of the fleet of the Three Kingdoms.

Geert, of course, knew that once the fleet on the sea above him discovered himself, it would not be easy for his submarine to escape from so many destroyers.

"Look at the charts and see if there's a trench nearby? Let's find a way to hide underneath! ”

"Sir, there is a trench about 3 kilometers to the left chord that is 4,200 meters deep, and the hydrological situation is suitable for us to hide!"

"Quick, get there now!"

On the sea, Hrinik was indignantly saying, "Don't think you can run away by changing direction? Now it's time to catch you! ”

"Captain, the other party has slowed down! Are we going to attack? ”

Hrinik looked at the adjutant and asked, "Did the old men from the Navy Staff call back?" ”

"Report, not yet!"

"Damn, we are changing here in an instant, and if we are not careful, we may be attacked by the other party, but we still have to wait for the rear to allow it." Hrinik grumbled.

He looked out through the porthole of the command room, and it was pitch black.

Tonight, there is no starlight.

"I order, to fire two depth charges at the location where the enemy submarine was found, set at a depth of 50 meters!"

Suddenly Saluk's voice came from the communication channel, "Hrinik, are you crazy? Before the order was given, you opened fire without permission.

If it is a nuclear submarine of the Mi army, won't we have to go to war with the U.S. country? Do you want to be a sinner in the Three Kingdoms? ”

Hrinik sneered, "Salek, why are you so worried? If it is a Mi military nuclear submarine, usually they will be at a depth of 200 meters or below.

Depth charges are now set at a depth of 50 meters, and they cannot be harmed. I'll see if I can force it out! ”

"But you're playing with fire!"

Hrinik ignored it and instructed his lieutenant to give instructions.

In a moment, two depth charges were dropped into their respective positions.

Under the surface of the sea, a nuclear submarine has just been moving at low speed towards a nearby trench.

The sonar man exclaimed, "Damn, they dropped depth charges!" However, the location is the original one. ”

"Sir, they made the first move, are we going to fight back?"

Geert shook his head and said, "They must have mistaken us for the guy who just disappeared." We can avoid it so that we don't make irreversible mistakes. ”

Geert has always been cautious, not to mention that without the order to open fire from above, he naturally will not mess around, even if he is attacked.

Between the nuclear submarines of the Mi Army and the Rakshasa Country, there is no shortage of cat-and-mouse games in the ocean, but they have never restrained themselves from firing.

Unlike the Azerbaijani navy, most commanders have never experienced such a confrontation to the limit, and they can't help but open fire.

Of course, it is also the Mi Army that has a strong capital to strike backwards.

This imminent situation, with Geert's patience, did not detonate a direct conflict between the two sides.

At this moment, the command center of the Ministry of Defense of the distant United States.

After staying awake all night last night, General Van Diatt and the others barely made up for their sleep, and then appeared directly in the command center hall.

It is possible to get information and react more quickly, after all, at this time the situation has already expanded.

Before dark in the Indian Ocean, a patrol plane finally spotted Captain Donald and others drifting on the sea, and immediately notified the Kenyan base to send a rescue helicopter to rescue them.

Shortly after nightfall local time, news came from the salvage ship that the fleet of the three countries had gone and returned, and was once again approaching its area of operation.

And just observed that the other side seems to have dropped depth charges!

This news shocked Van Diaat, the Virginia-class nuclear submarine Telella, which had just arrived there in the afternoon, would not be discovered by the other party, right?

Just as he hesitated, a major came to report, "General, I just received a request from the three Aegis sides, asking if our submarine had accidentally shot their Aegis Aegis ship. ”

Van Diat was taken aback, "Hit their Visa by mistake?" It can't be, right? ”

Immediately understood why the fleet of the three countries of Afghanistan was launching depth charges, and the feeling was revenge, wanting to sink the Telahua!

"Immediately inform the three countries of Afghanistan that the ships of our two sides must immediately distance themselves to avoid an unpredictable conflict!"

"Yes, General."

General Hunter came over and said, "General, I just received a message from Captain Donald, who was rescued by helicopter, take a look. ”

Van Diatt took it and took a quick look, then his mouth opened wide and didn't close it for a long time.

After reading all the information, he said, "Didn't he have visual and auditory hallucinations?" A giant beast of the sea, with silver skin? Eat his battleship! ”

Director Sandy listened, and hurriedly snatched the message from Van Diatt's hand and browsed it.

"Probably not, all six people who were rescued said so, and they were all very conscious."

Van Diatt said: "Hunter, immediately issue a gag order, this matter must not be spread!" ”

"I understand, I have already explained to the Kenyan base, and after receiving the six people, I will immediately arrange a special plane to send them back to China, and they must not have contact with anyone."

Director Sandy said, "Two generals, this kind of giant beast that can eat steel battleships is simply unheard of, have you ever heard of a similar sea beast?" ”

The two generals looked at each other, then shook their heads together.
