Seeing Marchionne rushing into the command room, Hanpri's eyes almost popped out of his head in surprise:
"Marchioni, what did you say? The periscope of the Triggerfish was shattered?"
At this time, Marchionne's expression was also a little subtle, and he nodded slowly:
"That's right, this is the message sent back jointly by the captain and advisor of the Triggerfish. Basically, there will be no problem."
be honest.
As the third commander of Task Force 72 of the Seventh Fleet, Marchionne can be regarded as a person who has experienced various battles, big and small.
He had encountered aircraft carriers breaking down, and had encountered submarine soldiers who were locked out while taking a poop, but the periscope was smashed while aiming... This was the first time he had seen this special thing.
"..."
Then Hamprey was silent for a few seconds and asked Marchionne:
"Marchioni, is it possible that this is an excuse made by the Triggerfish?"
"Mr. Hemprey, I think this is unlikely."
Marchionne quickly shook his head. He had considered this possibility when he received the news:
"Although Captain Rhodes was a bit indecisive at first, other personnel on the boat...such as Fire Control Officer Fairey Beeson, have always been very decisive and loyal."
"I don't think the whole Triggerfish is lying to us, at least about this kind of thing."
"Not to mention that the fact that the periscope was hit by a bullet can be confirmed after the submarine docks. During this period, the Triggerfish does not have the ability to repair it, so they should not tell such outrageous lies."
The muscles on Hanpri's face twitched a few times. After a few seconds, he punched the table four times with his right hand:
"Fuck! Fake! Assi! Baga!"
He never expected that such an exquisite killing move would have such a bizarre accident during its execution.
True.
This kind of accident would not make his arrangement fall short, but it would have a big impact on morale.
The saying that the right time, right place and right people are not only spread in the Eastern civilization circle, the West also has similar concepts - to be precise, any civilization system with the concept of "Creator" will basically have a superstitious belief in the right time.
"..."
After a long while, Hanprey's mood calmed down a little, and he looked at Marchionne again:
"Marchioni, how are those Chinese people doing now?"
Marchionne immediately straightened his expression and reported:
"The Triggerfish has temporarily stopped attacking. The Chinese sea team has approached the sea area where the data module is located."
"However, the Neon Man has always maintained a threatening enough distance. In addition to the Trigger Fish, we also have a diesel submarine in the nearby waters, ready to fire at any time."
The muscles on Humphrey's face relaxed slightly.
Mentioned earlier.
In addition to three nuclear submarines, five conventional diesel-powered submarines were dispatched across the sea this time.
Among them, nuclear submarines are only used for deterrence and must not fire - even ordinary torpedoes.
The remaining five diesel-powered submarines are distributed under the ocean surface for dozens of nautical miles nearby. In addition to the Trigger Fish, there happens to be another friendly ship, the Bayu, at this position.
The Bayu is engraved with eight clouds on the hull, corresponding to the eight most important historical figures across the sea:
George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Samuel Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and John Jay.
At the same time, the size of the submarine is smaller than that of the Triggerfish, and the structural lines are softer when taking into account the fluid effect. It looks like a girl, so it is also called the Bayu Niang or the Bayu Niang on the other side of the sea.
Yakumo Musume.
Then Marchionne hesitated for a moment and asked Hamprey:
"Mr. Hemprey, what should we do now?"
"Well......"
Hanprey stood up and came to the window, stared at the sea in the distance for a while (actually nothing could be seen clearly, it was too far), and then crossed his hands on his chest:
"Contact the Triggerfish to get them out of the battle and report back to the command ship first. Their current condition is no longer suitable for participating in this matter."
"As for the Bayu... Marchionne, how far are the Chinese from the data cabin?"
Marchionne picked up a mobile phone-like wireless communication device from his body. This was an internal communications device developed by Bell Labs for the ocean-going fleet across the sea. Then Marchionne chattered for a while, then looked up again.
Hanpuri:
"Mr. Hanprey, the nearest Chinese people entering the sea are less than 70 meters away from the data cabin. However, there seem to be some undercurrents in that sea area. The speed of the salvage crew has been reduced compared with the initial level. It will take about two to three minutes to reach the data cabin.
.”
Hanpri frowned, keeping his hands crossed in front of his chest, and his right index finger tapped rhythmically on his left arm:
"...Two to three minutes?"
Then soon, a trace of determination appeared in his eyes:
"Marchioni, notify the Bayu to launch torpedoes immediately and aim directly at the Chinese salvagers!"
At this moment.
Hanprey, the head of the Western camp, also showed high decision-making courage.
He knew very well that once the Chinese swam to the data cabin, not to mention whose hands the data cabin would eventually fall into, at least weapons such as torpedoes would definitely be unusable, otherwise they would just wait for the data cabin to explode together...
..
And if a firearm is used to attack the salvage crew, then the nature of the matter will completely change - the torpedo can be said to be accidentally fired as an experiment, but the bullets obviously cannot be used for this reason.
At that time, the situation will truly become one of taking the initiative to open fire on the other side of the sea, and it will be impossible to clean it no matter how hard you wash it, so the fun will be great...
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The only solution at that time is to fight hand-to-hand - this logic is of the same nature as the conflict between the rabbits and Asan in the Galwan Valley in later generations, and you can use a stick.
Fist or even blast shield, but never shoot.
In other words.
The two to three minutes now are the last opportunity for the other side of the sea to take the initiative.
Marchionne was obviously aware of this, and after receiving Hampri's instructions, he immediately turned around and left the command room.
Then very quickly.
An instruction was conveyed to the submarine Bayu.
The captain of the Bayu submarine at that time was a standard-looking Latin American man with a Chinese character face, a beard, a well-kept figure, and he was about forty years old.
Although the Bayu was not the first to launch torpedoes as originally planned, he still decisively issued the torpedo launch order.
Of course.
Compared with the Trigger Fish, which is only a few hundred meters away from Wang Anyi, the Bayu is more difficult to aim - their position is two kilometers away, and although they have sonar assistance, they want to hit a swimming salvage fish.
It is still a bit difficult to be a member.
Because compared to targets such as warships, Wang Anyi is extremely small, and her swimming speed also changes randomly.
Sometimes when the surge is small, the speed may be faster when enough energy has been accumulated. When the resistance is large, the frequency adjustment may be slower. It is much more difficult to estimate the advance than to trigger the fish signal.
more importantly.
Wang Anyi is not an underwater target. He is floating on the sea. This means that the torpedo must also move on the water surface...at least on the surface of the water surface.
This depth must not exceed 0.5 meters, and the most reasonable range is 10-20 centimeters below the water surface.
That is to say, the movement trajectory of a torpedo is somewhat similar to that of an offshore shark. The "dorsal fin" will draw an obvious mark on the water. The temperature difference and air resistance in the process will have a significant impact on the torpedo.
However, despite the difficult conditions, the Bayu still completed the launch mission.
As a conventional diesel-powered submarine, the Bayu submarine is not designed with many torpedo tubes.
It can salvo 4 torpedoes from the front, then turn 180 degrees, and fire 2 torpedoes from the tail torpedo tube, both with a caliber of 460 mm.
Thirty seconds later.
The lookout reported the parameters to the fire controller, and the fire controller adjusted sufficient angles based on these data.
Twelve seconds passed.
Click, click, click...
The Bayu submarine's launch port was opened, and compressed air was injected into the back of the torpedo from the ventilation pipe on the right side.
Immediately afterwards.
call out--
The compressed air pushed the torpedoes out of the launch tube, and the four torpedoes jumped out of the submarine at high speed.
In order to ensure the hit rate, there was a five-second launch difference between the four torpedoes.
In an instant.
Four water patterns appeared on the sea and rushed towards Wang Anyi.
"pretty!"
See this situation.
In the command module, Hanprey held the telescope in one hand and punched the air twice with the other hand:
"Damn Chinese, let's see how you can escape this time!"
The expression on Hanpri's face was a little ferocious and vicious that he was not aware of, but at the same time there was a hint of relaxation and expectation.
Before the torpedo was launched, he was afraid that the Bayu's periscope would be shattered by unknown means by the Chinese, but now it seemed that the Chinese's capabilities were limited after all.
They can create miracles once or twice, but they can never do it again and again.
Now that the four torpedoes were successfully launched, he really didn't know what other methods the Chinese side could use to save Wang Anyi's life.
because.....
Although there are not many torpedoes carried by the Bayu, they are all acoustic homing torpedoes unique to the other side of the sea...
As we all know.
At this time, the torpedoes used by various countries are basically direct-sailing torpedoes.
As the name suggests, a direct-sailing torpedo is a torpedo that sails in a straight line and cannot be guided.
They basically go straight to the target from the torpedo tube. The torpedo's track is the extension line from the torpedo tube to the target. They do not have the maneuvering steering, target search, target switching and turning attack that the torpedoes of later generations have.
combat capability.
This is true whether it is Neon's "powerful 93 acid torpedo", Germany's magnetic induction fuse electric torpedo, or the early cheating MK13/14 torpedo across the sea.
Therefore, in order to improve the hit rate, navies of various countries generally adopt salvo attack tactics.
However, everything has exceptions. As early as World War II, the other side of the sea had mastered an acoustic homing torpedo technology, which is the famous MK24 torpedo.
The navigation system of this torpedo consists of two parts. One is four Hydrophones installed in the middle of the torpedo, and the other is a processing array composed of vacuum tubes. The control system is the historic Pendulum-and-hydrostat Control System.
It is a mechanical pendulum control system.
The so-called Hydrophone is actually a microphone specially designed to detect ultrasonic waves in the water. Four of them are arranged in a ring in the middle of the torpedo to monitor ultrasonic waves in the water 360 degrees.
When an object emits ultrasonic waves, normal conditions will cause four Hydrophones to receive ultrasonic waves of different intensities.
Only when the object is located directly in front of the torpedo, the received signal strength will be the same, because at this time the sound source is at the same distance from the four Hydrophones.
So according to this characteristic, just let the torpedo travel in the direction with the same signal strength of the four Hydrophones - the vacuum tube processing array will come into play (let alone integrated circuits at that time, even transistors were not yet available, so vacuum tubes could only be used
).
It recognizes and detects Hydrophone signals, acquires and processes the signals, and then outputs the results to several groups of electromagnets, which are connected to the pendulum control system mentioned above.
The combination of the three can achieve a certain degree of navigation.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In other words...
This kind of torpedo either restricts it before launching it, such as destroying the sonar or periscope, or simply sinks the submarine, or you can only watch it rush towards you.
Think of this.
Han Puli couldn't help but raise a cruel smile.
He seemed to have seen four torpedoes like four sharp swords, piercing Wang Anyi into pieces...
Wow...
Torpedoes travel very quickly on the water, with a speed of 70 kilometers per hour, which means they can glide more than 20 meters per second on the water.
Less than half a minute.
The distance between the torpedo and Wang Anyi has been shortened to 400 meters.
At this time, Wang Anyi's swimming speed had slowed down by more than half than before due to encountering ocean currents, and she was still about thirty meters away from the data cabin.
According to the sliding time of the torpedo, Wang Anyi will probably encounter the torpedo about ten meters away from the data cabin.
Wang Anyi was not aware of this at all. After all, although the sound of the torpedo was loud, his current "load" was quite heavy. It was good to be able to detect abnormalities within a hundred meters when the torpedo broke through.
But at that time, neither his physical condition nor the speed of the torpedo allowed Wang Anyi to take any effective countermeasures.
The corners of Han Puli's mouth raised even higher. He was extremely looking forward to the feast of blood he would see next.
400 meters.....
300 meters.....
200 meters.....
However, when the torpedo was only 150 meters away from Wang Anyi.
boom--
A ball of water three meters high suddenly exploded on the water, like a sudden explosion of fireworks in the dark night, and some small metal pieces could be vaguely seen surging in it.
Hanpri's smile suddenly froze on his face, and his thinking also came to a standstill.
There is a wave tail at the end of this mass of water that has not yet melted away. It is clearly... the torpedo closest to Wang Anyi!
One second later.
After regaining consciousness, Hamley grabbed the telescope on the table and pressed the eyepiece tube firmly against his eye socket. He felt a sense of pressure in his eyes and his eyes were fixed on the area where the splash was.
what happened?
A torpedo actually exploded early?
Could it be that he hit some fish?
Impossible, small fish cannot detonate torpedoes, while the probability of large fish is infinitely close to 0...
And just when Hampuri's mind was in a mess and his back was sweating profusely.
boom--
boom--
boom--
Within sight.
Within five seconds of each other, three more water splashes suddenly exploded!
...
Note:
This is not the climax yet, there are two more climaxes to come, and there will never be only one hero.
I was coding at an Internet cafe. A guy next to me used the song request function to order a bunch of Jay Chou songs, and then he sang along while playing games. The key words he sang were really ugly. I didn’t like wearing headphones when I was coding.
