Chapter 199: Torpedo
The sound of the leaves knocking on the pipe, while the sonar crews of the Type 039A submarine and the 139 Ningbo missile destroyer heard it, also frightened all the officers and men on the American submarine to the point of losing their souls, especially when the two active sonar sources that had been working non-stop were suddenly turned off, everyone in the nuclear submarine command tower knew that the other party must have discovered the sound made in their submarine.
"Sir, what are we going to do?" The first mate looked eagerly at his Supreme Commander and asked, everyone knew that if the two people locked in cabin 7 were allowed to continue to make noise, it would be all over.
At this moment, the sonar with a stern face said, "Our self-noise is weakening. ”
Self-noise waves weakened? Everyone including the bearded captain was a little baffled, those two search ships were still far away from them now, and if they only relied on passive sonar, they might not be able to clearly receive the submarine's self-noise, although I don't know why the form suddenly became a little better, but it did buy me some time.
Of course, the people in the nuclear submarine command tower would not know that it was the weak woman Ye Zi who was knocking on the pipe, and after only holding on for a while, the leaf had no strength, so the sound waves that could be emitted naturally decreased. However, just when the bearded captain and the others thought that they had more time to react, the horns in the entire ship suddenly sounded, making everyone on the submarine as worried as leaves.
Different from the anxious mood of the officers and men in the American submarine, when the song of the leaves was converted into sound waves, and the base array of active sonar was sent to the sea not long after, the sonar of the Type 039A submarine who received this signal suddenly turned into an expression that did not know how to react, which surprised the captain, could it be that something was happening?
Hurriedly asked the sonar what happened, the sonar officer handed the headset to the captain with a strange face, without hesitation, the captain grabbed it and put it in his ear to listen, and suddenly the expression on his face was rich, this and this, it was actually music? No matter what, I don't know what to say, the captain directly ordered: "Immediately detect the direction and distance of the sound source, and find it for me." ”
The sonar officer immediately nodded in understanding, and began to work with the apprehension of the underwater version, and at the same time, the bearded captain in the American nuclear submarine knew that he could not let his active sonar system work, so he immediately made a decision, his expression sank, and he gave his own order: "Prepare to shut down the nuclear reactor, we will work with backup power supply." ”
Shut down a nuclear reactor? The first mate was taken aback and said, "Sir, if the nuclear reactor is shut down, all our systems will have to be restarted." ”
If all systems were to be restarted, it would mean that the submarine would lose all control except for a few lighting and oxygen exchange devices with independent backup power supplies, and it would be dangerous to lose control at this time, as it was still surrounded by a group of Chinese ships.
"We don't have a choice." The bearded captain said with a gloomy expression: "Continue to let the active sonar work, once it is locked, if the Chinese ships rush over, we will have no chance to escape, and I will do it as ordered immediately." ”
The first mate only hesitated slightly, he knew that the bearded captain was right, so he had to repeat the order immediately, and then under the control of the sailors, the whole submarine suddenly darkened, and all the equipment was stopped except for a few photographic equipment. Soon, however, the submarine's backup power supply began to provide energy for the submarine's equipment, and the large amount of reserve power was able to maintain the submarine's normal operation for at least two hours.
Xia Yu, who was in the control room, originally planned to use the current to penetrate the circuit boards of some equipment, causing the submarine to be unable to operate normally, but he didn't expect the nuclear reactor to be shut down, leaving only some net energy to provide power for the main equipment of the submarine, so that Xia Yu could not continue to do anything to the submarine, because one is not good, the submarine is likely to sink by itself. Xia Yu had no intention of dying with the Americans, so he had to leave the control room and go to accompany Ye Zi.
"Xia Yu, what happened just now? Suddenly it went dark, and then the microphone seemed to be unusable. As soon as she saw Xia Yu coming, Ye Zi anxiously asked, she was worried that she had accidentally touched something on this control platform, and then broke something.
"It's okay, it's okay." Xia Yu comforted Ye Zi, then picked up the big metal wrench that was put aside and said, "But the microphone really can't be used, you can also take a break, and I'll leave the matter of sending signals later." ”
Ye Zi heard this, "oh", and was about to say something, Xia Yu's face suddenly changed, because just now, his palm on the bulkhead felt a long-lost and unfamiliar sense of vibration, and he put his ear on the bulkhead and listened carefully, Xia Yu's expression was serious and stern.
"Grunt" This is the sound of dense bubbles, Xia Yu immediately judged what this vibration was, his heart shrank violently, and at the same time, the sonar of the 039A submarine also changed his face greatly, and shouted: "4 nautical miles ahead, the torpedo compartment is filled with water!" ”
In the command tower of the American nuclear submarine, the bearded captain immediately asked his communications corps, the location of the USS George Washington, as soon as the backup power supply was activated. Earlier, before it was discovered, this nuclear submarine had established contact with the George Washington at any time, after all, if it could pass through the protective circle of the George Washington aircraft carrier battle formation, it was impossible for the Chinese to ignore a huge aircraft carrier battle group, nor could they pass through the protective circle of George Washington like this submarine, and before it was discovered, the submarine only needed an hour and a half to be able to approach the George Washington aircraft carrier, and then complete the detachment.
However, Xia Yu and Ye Zi's troubles inside the submarine, and the interception of China's military forces, forced the nuclear submarine to change course and prolong the time to rendezvous with the George Washington, but even so, the circumference of the voyage still put the submarine on the edge of the guard circle of the George Washington aircraft carrier battle group.
However, at this time, the confrontation between the Chinese aircraft carrier battle group and the USS George Washington aircraft carrier battle group, China's ever-increasing military strength, in this area has put the combat effectiveness of the USS George Washington aircraft carrier battle group at an absolute disadvantage in terms of quantity, in this case, even the Americans who are big in the face do not dare to be careless, not to mention that they were slapped hard by the Chinese carrier-based aircraft not long ago, and they clearly saw that the Chinese carrier-based aircraft pilots are not weaker than their own carrier-based aircraft pilots' flight technical strength.
Any blind and reckless behavior could lead to very bad consequences, and the commander of the USS George Washington aircraft carrier formation could not take the initiative to provide cover for the submarine, and could only rely on the submarine to fight on its own. As long as it can disappear from the field of view of the Chinese ship again, the bearded captain of the submarine thinks that there is still a chance to be able to break away completely, so he directly gave the order: "The No. 1 and No. 2 torpedo compartments are filled with water and ready to attack." ”
