Chapter 779 The Gun God Is Invincible!

One minute later.

On the command ship across the sea.

"WTF?"

Looking at Marchionne who rushed into the command room, Hampry's eyes almost popped out in surprise:

"Marchionne, what did you say? The periscope of the Triggerfish was smashed?"

At this time, Marchionne's face was also a little subtle, and he nodded slowly:

"Yes, this is the message sent back by the captain and consultant of the Triggerfish, basically there will be no problem."

Tell the truth.

As the third intelligence officer of the 72nd Task Force of the Seventh Fleet, Marchionne can be regarded as a person who has experienced all kinds of battles.

He has encountered aircraft carriers anchored and submarine soldiers being locked outside when they were shitting, but the periscope was smashed when aiming. This is really the first time I have seen it.

"."

Hampry was silent for a few seconds and asked Marchionne:

"Marchionne, could this be an excuse for the Triggerfish?"

"Mr. Hampry, I don't think this is likely."

Marchionne shook his head quickly. He had considered this possibility when he received the news:

"First of all, although Captain Rhodes is a bit indecisive, other personnel on the boat, such as the fire control officer Fairey Bisson, have always been very decisive and loyal."

"At least in this matter, I don't think the entire Triggerfish will lie to us."

"Not to mention that the periscope was hit by a bullet after the submarine docked, and the Triggerfish had no ability to repair it during the period, so they should not tell such an outrageous lie."

Hampry's facial muscles twitched a few times, and after a few seconds, his right hand slammed four punches on the table:

"Fuck! Fuck! Assi! Baka!"

He never thought that such a subtle killing move of his would have such an outrageous accident during the execution.

Indeed.

This accident did not make his plan fail, but it was a big blow to morale.

The saying of "the right time, the right place, and the right people" is not only circulated in the Eastern civilization circle, but also in the West. In fact, there is a similar concept - to be precise, any civilization system with the concept of "creator" basically has superstition about the right time.

"."

After a long while, Hampry's mood calmed down a little, and he looked at Marchionne again:

"Marchionne, how are the Chinese now?"

Marchionne immediately straightened his expression and reported:

"The Triggerfish has temporarily stopped attacking, and the Chinese sea-going team has approached the sea area where the data cabin is located."

"But the Japanese have always maintained a threatening distance. In addition to the Triggerfish, we also have a diesel submarine in the nearby waters, ready to open fire at any time."

The muscles on Hampry's face relaxed slightly.

Mentioned earlier.

In addition to the three nuclear submarines, five conventional diesel-powered submarines were also sent to the other side of the sea.

The nuclear submarines were only used for deterrence and were not allowed to fire—not even ordinary torpedoes.

The remaining five diesel-powered submarines were distributed under the ocean surface dozens of miles nearby. In addition to the Triggerfish, there happened to be another friendly submarine, the Bayu.

The Bayu had eight clouds engraved on its hull, corresponding to the eight most important historical figures in the history of the other side of 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 was smaller than that of the Triggerfish, and the structural lines were softer when considering the fluid effect, like a girl, so it was also called the Bayu Niang or the Yakumo Niang inside the other side of the sea.

Then Marchionne hesitated for a while and asked Hampry:

"Mr. Hampry, what should we do now?"

"Hmm"

Hampry stood up and walked to the window, staring at the sea in the distance for a while (actually he couldn't see anything clearly, it was too far away), then crossed his hands in front of his chest:

"Contact the Triggerfish, let them leave the battle, report back to the command ship first, their current state is no longer suitable for participating in this matter."

"As for the Mackerel Marchionne, how far are the Chinese from the data cabin?"

Marchionne picked up a wireless communication device similar to a big brother from his body. This is an internal communicator developed by Bell Labs for the ocean-going fleet across the sea, and then Marchionne muttered for a while, then looked up at Hampry again:

"Mr. Hampry, the Chinese personnel who entered the sea are less than 70 meters away from the data cabin, but there seems to be some undercurrents in that sea area, and the speed of the salvors has slowed down compared to the initial situation. It will take about two to three minutes to reach the vicinity of the data cabin."

Hampry frowned, kept his hands crossed in front of his chest, and tapped his left arm with his right index finger rhythmically:

".Two to three minutes?"

Then soon, a hint of determination emerged in his eyes:

"Marchionne, notify the Bayu to launch a torpedo immediately, aiming directly at the Chinese salvors!"

At this moment.

Hampry, the head of the Western camp, also showed a high degree of decision-making courage.

He knew very well that once the Chinese swam to the data cabin, regardless of who would get the data cabin, at least the torpedo would be unusable, otherwise the data cabin would explode.

If the salvagers were attacked with guns, the nature of the matter would change completely - the torpedo could be said to be an accidental firing during the experiment, but the bullet obviously could not be used with this excuse.

The situation at that time would really become the other side of the sea taking the initiative to fire, and it would be impossible to wash it clean, and that would be a lot of fun.

The only solution at that time would be close combat - this logic is the same as the conflict between the rabbits and the Indians in the Galwan Valley in the future. You can use sticks, fists, and even explosion-proof shields, but you must not shoot.

In other words.

The two to three minutes now are the last initiative opportunity for the other side of the sea.

Marchioni obviously realized this, and after receiving Hampry's instructions, he immediately turned around and left the command room.

Then soon.

An instruction was conveyed to the Bayu submarine.

The captain of the Bayu submarine at that time was a standard Latin American man with a square face, a beard, a well-maintained figure, and about 40 years old.

Although the Bayu was not the first in the original plan to launch torpedoes, he still decisively issued the order to launch the torpedoes.

Of course.

Compared with the Triggerfish, which was only a few hundred meters away from Wang Anyi, the Bayu was more difficult to aim at - their position was two kilometers away, and despite the sonar assistance, it was still a bit difficult to hit a swimming salvager.

Because compared with targets such as warships, Wang Anyi's body size was extremely small, and his swimming speed was also changing randomly.

Sometimes the surge was smaller and the physical energy was stored to a sufficient amount, it might be faster, and the resistance was large and the frequency might be adjusted slower. It was much more difficult to estimate the lead time than the Triggerfish.

More importantly.

Wang Anyi was not an underwater target. He was floating on the sea, which meant that the torpedo must also move on the water surface. At least on the surface of the water.

This depth must not exceed 0.5 meters, and the most reasonable range is 10-20 centimeters below the water surface.

That is, the trajectory of the torpedo is somewhat similar to that of a shark near the coast. The "dorsal fin" will leave a clear mark on the water surface. The temperature difference and air resistance in this process will have a significant impact on the torpedo.

However, despite the difficult conditions, the Bayu still performed the launch mission.

As a conventional diesel-powered submarine, the Bayu submarine is not designed with many torpedo tubes.

It can fire 4 torpedoes at the front, then turn 180 degrees and fire 2 torpedoes at the rear torpedo tube, all with a caliber of 460 mm.

Thirty seconds later.

The lookout reported the parameters to the fire controller, and the fire controller adjusted the angle enough according to these data.

Twelve seconds later.

Click, click, click.

The launch port of the Bayu submarine opened, and compressed air was injected into the rear of the torpedo through the ventilation pipe attached to the right.

Immediately afterwards.

Swoosh——

The compressed air pushed the torpedo out of the launch tube, and four torpedoes rushed 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 lines appeared on the sea surface and rushed towards Wang Anyi.

"Beautiful!"

Seeing this.

Hampry in the command cabin held the telescope in one hand and punched the air with the other hand:

"Damn Chinese, let's see how you can escape this time!"

The expression on Hampry's face was a little hideous and vicious that he didn't even notice, and at the same time there was a little bit of ease and expectation.

Before the torpedo was launched, he was afraid that the periscope of the Bayu would also be shattered by the unknown means of the Chinese, but now it seems that the ability of the Chinese is limited after all.

They can create miracles once or twice, but they can never do it every time.

Now that the four torpedoes have been successfully launched, he really doesn't know what means the Chinese have to save Wang Anyi's life.

Because

Although the torpedoes carried by the Bayu are not many, they are all acoustic self-guided torpedoes unique to the other side of the sea.

It is well known.

At this time, the torpedoes used by various countries are basically straight-line torpedoes.

As the name suggests, straight-line torpedoes are torpedoes that sail in a straight line and cannot be guided.

They basically go straight to the target from the torpedo tube. The track of the torpedo is the extension line from the torpedo tube to the target. They do not have the combat capabilities of maneuvering, target search, target conversion and turning attack that the current torpedoes have.

Whether it is Japan's "powerful 93 oxygen torpedo", Germany's magnetic induction fuze electric torpedo, or the early MK13/14 torpedoes on the other side of the sea.

Therefore, in order to improve the hit rate, the navies of various countries generally adopt salvo attack tactics.

However, there are exceptions to everything. As early as World War II, the other side of the sea mastered a kind of acoustic self-guided 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 very historical Pendulum-and-hydrostat Control System, which 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 4 Hydrophones to receive ultrasonic waves of different intensities.

Only when the object is located directly in front of the torpedo will the received signal strength be the same, because 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.

In other words.

This kind of torpedo either restricts it before launching, 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 the 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, he currently had a lot of "weight". 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 make any effective countermeasures.

The corners of Hanpuri'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, 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 spray of water that has not yet been dissolved. It is the torpedo closest to Wang Anyi!

One second later.

After regaining consciousness, Hanprey 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 Hanprey's mind was in a mess and his back was sweating.

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. 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 vocals were really ugly. I didn’t like wearing headphones when I was coding. torture.
