If you want to stop them, you can only get close with your life.And the firepower of the penetrating frigate is no joke.What's more, there are submarines in the water.

Of course, you can also choose long-range strikes.However, except for the express delivery business of a few big rogues, most of the long-range strikes may not have any effect on the dense air defense firepower network of the frigates.After all, the Aegis system is one of Lao Mei's magic weapons. As a former younger brother, the Australian Navy, which enjoys this kind of welfare, will not be able to use up those long-range firepower.

It can be said that Australia at the moment is practicing its ambitions with absolute caution.But just as they were taking such steps and getting closer to the target, the sonar from the guard suddenly sounded an alarm.

"The sonar monitors a huge response, and the position is coming towards us! The speed is too fast!"

As soon as the crew issued a warning, there was a bang, and the patrol ship right in front of them took off from the water as if it had hit an iceberg.

A clear white wave emerges from the bottom of the ship, and it is like a snake swimming in a meandering manner. At a speed that you can hardly follow with the naked eye, it turns left and right, and the surrounding patrol ships follow one after another. Overturned the past.

The patrol ship had no time to evade.Although it is said that there are factors of the congenital lack of speed of the Armidale-class patrol boats, but in any case, they are also more than 50 meters long and 270 tons of warships.Being overturned so easily is like overturning a paper boat, which really makes people feel a little unbelievable.

Of course, after the initial shock, the Australian fleet commander accepted the reality.He is very clear about what he has to deal with, and it is not surprising what happens to opponents of extraordinary level.The left and right are just a bunch of worthless patrol ships. It is worth it to use their sacrifices in exchange for the first step in obtaining information from the large forces!

As a soldier, the Admiral of the Fleet is not as ignorant and stupid as his own politicians.He will not say any stupid things about achieving victory with zero sacrifice, because unless it is a dream, even a crushing war like the US fighting Iraq will cause casualties.The only difference is whether the casualty is within your acceptable range.

But right now, the sacrifice of more than a dozen patrol ships is clearly acceptable.And taking advantage of this effort, he still gave the order to start the entire fleet in operation.

"Notify the frigate and monitor the opponent's movement at any time. The underwater submarine enters pre-war preparations. Once the target is found, it will immediately launch an attack with torpedoes. Prepare cluster bombs and let the fighter-bombers prepare to take off. Once the target is found, immediately carry out air strikes on it. And let the helicopter take off for rescue. Those patrol ships don’t matter, but the crew on them, if they can be rescued, let me save some.”

Simply to cope with the situation, Australia changed its strategic projection ship into a light aircraft carrier in advance. Otherwise, the strategic projection ship can only hold tanks and take off helicopters, and it may not be able to cope with the current situation.

And like now, with the triple insurance here, he really doesn't believe that this unknown extraordinary opponent has the ability to catch them by surprise like the attack on the patrol ship before.

As a soldier, compared to those opponents he couldn't win, what he was most afraid of was encountering those he couldn't see or fight.Although the former is said to be impossible to win, at least you can fight him to the death. Even if you really die, it is an honorable sacrifice and the most honorable end for a soldier.

And if you face those opponents who can't be seen, touched, and you can only stand next to him, that's another situation.Aggrieved not to mention, just an unseemly problem is a result that most people don't want to face.

The fleet commander hoped that he was facing a fair and aboveboard battle, so he was full of vigilance, and even acted as if he wanted to put the sonar directly in front of him.And one advantage of doing this is that all the sailors have raised their spirits and dare not make any omissions.

"The sonar response is in front of us on the right, at the direction of three o'clock. The distance is 8 nautical miles, the depth is 70 meters underwater, 120 meters, and 200 meters are still diving! It has exceeded 800 meters, and we have lost its accurate positioning! "

"So fast?" As an old navy, the fleet commander was undoubtedly surprised by the speed of the opponent's dive.Because such a speed of diving hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye, if it happened on a submarine, it would kill a whole boat in an instant.

The submarine force has always been the most dangerous profession in the navy, because just performing the mission itself is a double torture both psychologically and physically.The perennial silence and isolation of the submarine force when performing missions can easily lead to psychological illness.And every ascent or dive may affect the body of every crew member due to sudden changes in water pressure.

Human beings, or any kind of creature in the world, cannot ignore the wanton diving of the marine environment.Because of the water pressure, every ten meters you dive, the organism will bear an extra atmosphere of pressure.And it's as if the air in one's lungs has suddenly doubled. The further down it is, the more difficult it will be for creatures to breathe.

In this regard, whales such as the sperm whale are probably the most resistant.As for them, they can only dive at a maximum of 170 meters per minute.And if it was a human being, it would have already suffocated to death by this time.

Of course, human beings have their own methods. Using technology, human beings can also offset the external water pressure and maximize the ability to dive.But it takes time and there are limits.Submarines need to adjust the air pressure inside the ship to a normal value. Because this value will change with the speed of the ship's dive, the process itself cannot be called so fast.For example, in the case of deep-sea depth adjustment, even if it is just a sudden drop of tens of meters, the result is likely to be disastrous.

In addition, the maximum diving depth of the submarine is also limited.Restricted by materials and technology, conventional submarines can only dive to a depth of several hundred meters.Once this limit is exceeded, the water pressure will immediately destroy the integrity of the ship, causing water to leak in the deep sea, and the result is self-evident.

Of course, this does not rule out some cases where nuclear submarines can dive to a depth of a thousand meters and deep-sea submersibles can dive to a depth of more than 1 meters.But that is not a conventional submarine after all, and the two are not comparable.

So like now, facing such an opponent who can suddenly dive a thousand meters and dive faster than expected, the commander of the fleet immediately started to sweat.

Again, the invisible opponent is the most troublesome.Fortunately, he now knew the angle from which his opponent might attack, so immediately, he ordered again.

"Notify all ships to immediately drop mines in the area 200 meters below the water area. Submarines are prohibited from surfacing to prevent accidental injury. Also, the submarine will turn on active sonar and do everything possible to search for underwater targets. In addition, what is our target? , Has the sonar monitoring just now been drawn yet?"

"Not yet, sir. The opponent moves too fast and makes too much noise, and we can't accurately map its size!"

"Damn it, where did this monster come from!"

Slamming the table hard, the fleet commander had no choice but to appease the uneasiness in his heart in this way.To be honest, he had never seen any creature that could move at such a speed in the sea.Even the advanced sonar system couldn't capture his whole picture, which immediately cast more than one layer of shadow on his heart.

All he thought about now was that this monster could honestly launch an attack according to his idea, so that they might still be able to achieve the expected results.And if it is cunning and does not follow common sense at all, then this battle may be really difficult to fight.

Murphy's Law, the more you worry about something, the more likely something will happen.All the defense lines of the fleet commander are built with the strategic projection ship Canberra where he is located as the core of defense.Central arming, multi-network handover.As long as the opponent is coming towards him, once he falls into the trap, the attack he has prepared for a long time will hit it in the face in an instant.

What he didn't expect was that the other party seemed to see his intention, and didn't mean to act as he expected at all.

The Canberra, where the core of the attack is located, no.The other party didn't think so. The first target it chose to attack was the group of submarines diving deep below the fleet.

Like a great white shark hunting a seal, suddenly attacking from directly below.Some people may have thought of this possibility, but absolutely no one could have imagined that this suddenness would be so sudden.

Almost as soon as the sonar detected the reaction, the attack had already followed.The Sean with the hull number ssg77 didn't even have time to make any response, a violent impact already made the whole submarine bump from the inside out

The warning device was beeping crazily, countless shells were broken, and the Sean was about to capsize. Compared with these problems, the officer as the captain found out desperately that they had a more serious problem.

The hull is floating, this is not a situation under their control.Instead, under the influence of some kind of external force, their ships were forced to start moving towards the sea surface.The speed was beyond imagination, and it floated more than [-] meters almost instantly.And the result of this is that there is no time to adjust, and the sudden decrease in atmospheric pressure is like blowing bubbles, causing the lungs of every crew member to explode.

Their lungs overexpanded with air, and large amounts of air escaped into blood vessels to form air bubbles.This is a symptom called a gas embolism.Accompanied by this symptom, a large number of air bubbles will enter various organs of the body along with the blood flow, and within a short period of time, cause fatal effects on humans.Under normal circumstances, it may be possible to use a hyperbaric chamber for emergency rescue.But that was when the rate of rise was not large and the symptoms were not serious.But like the current situation, it is basically hopeless.

So it took only a short time to scold, the captain of the submarine already had his eyes swollen, clutching his chest, and fell to the ground vomiting blood.He wasn't the first to fall, nor was he the last.In short, everything is a very short process. More than 40 people on the entire submarine have already died in their posts one after another.

In this regard, everyone, including the commander of the fleet, has not yet realized the situation.They could only continue to send inquiries to the Sean through the radio.

"The Sean, the Sean! We found that you seem to have been attacked, please report the situation, please report the situation!"

The Sean is no longer able to report the situation.Not only because all its crew members have fallen to their posts, but also because the enemies who attacked him have no intention of stopping.

Under the action of some external force, the Sean continued to be dragged and moved, and soon entered the mine deployment area.Then, the external force exerted on Sean increased sharply, as if a pitcher had thrown a baseball, and Sean was thrown out at once.

Sensitive mines can't withstand this level of impact at all, so when the sonar of all ships clearly detects violent fluctuations in the water, countless sea mines have already exploded in no particular order.

The fluctuations of the explosion affected the detection of the sonar, causing almost all sonars to be disordered to varying degrees.This is tantamount to blinding the fleet, and taking advantage of such an opportunity, their enemy has once again stretched out his claws.

Chapter Two Thousand and Eight

The submarine formation was at a loss. Facing the attack on the Sean just now, none of them even had time to react

They only knew that the Sean had been killed, but they didn't expect that the Sean was regarded as a medium for detonating mines and became a tool in the hands of the enemy.

Amidst the huge explosion, they had already become headless chickens.I don't know how to act well, and I can't help but feel fear of the opponent hidden deep in the deep sea.They were worried, worried that they would be next, that is, in the footsteps of the Sean.With nothing to do, they could only communicate meaninglessly on the radio.

"The Sean is dead, what should we do now?"

"Damn it, how did he find the Sean? This is a place 200 meters deep in the sea, so he shouldn't be able to see anything."

"Command tower, what should we do next? Just squatting here and waiting for him to come to the door?"

It's not wrong to say that people are panicking.Facing the disorganized submarine formation underwater, the commander of the fleet heard the screams before he could come up with a good countermeasure.

"Damn, we're under attack. Help, help! Whatever it is, come and save us!"

There was a rumbling explosion, and the sailor who was in charge of receiving the signal immediately raised his head and shouted.

"Sir. The Waller has lost contact and the Farncombe has also lost contact."

It was obvious that there were more than one submarine under attack, and they were almost front to back. The communication between the two submarines had already fallen into silence one after another.

As before, their enemies have learned to use submarines to trigger mines.And when such methods were used one after another, the psychological defense of the submarine officers and soldiers had already been stretched to a very dangerous edge.

This is not a fight, this is simply death.No one wants to die, and it's still so unclear.So immediately, they made a request to the command tower.
