Preface 5 diving into the sea

Silver lightning flashed through the dark night sky, as if a dense spider web was weaved between the sky and the earth.

On the ka-27 helicopter, Lu Chengwen suddenly thought of a text in a middle school Chinese textbook. Although Lu Chengwen had long forgotten the name of the text, he felt that the helicopter at this time was the swallow in the text, the swallow shuttled through the thunderstorm.

"Major, fifteen minutes left."

Hearing the captain's shout from the headphones, Lu Chengwen quickly came to his senses. "I know. Continue to search and move forward, and report immediately if you find any discovery."

"I understand." Yan Yunxiang, who was sitting on the left side of the cockpit, grimaced at his partner on the right, and then shook his head with a wry smile.

This was indeed an extraordinary task. Until now, Yan Yunxiang has no time to observe silence for the three dead comrades, and he even has no time to feel sad for the seriously injured Kong Zhigao.

More than 20 special forces killed hundreds of militants within ten minutes.

When Yan Yunxiang flew back to the camp by the helicopter, the battle was over. Then, he carried the bodies of these special forces, the injured Kong Zhigao, the bodies of three comrades, and the mysterious cargo back to the destroyer patrolling the Gulf of Aden. After replenishing aviation fuel, the ka-27 took off again, Major Lu Chengwen and other three special forces, two large sub-fuel tanks, and the mysterious cargo.

I kept going south, south, and then south, and flew for three hours.

In another fifteen minutes, the maximum flight radius of the helicopter will be reached. At that time, whether or not the damn submarine is found, they will have to return.

Yan Yunxiang glanced at his partner again, hoping to gain something, but the result disappointed him.

At this time, the ground electronic antenna fairing below the head of the helicopter. The sea search radar ground antenna is rotating at a speed of ten circles per minute. The electromagnetic waves swept across the surrounding sea surface over and over again. Apart from the echo of the waves, there is no harvest at all.

Generally, sea search radar is controlled by professional electronic officers.

This time, in order to carry more fuel and increase the flight distance of the helicopter, two other crew members stayed on the destroyer and handed over the radar to the co-pilot.

"Lao Yan. It seems that the submarine didn't come at all. We have to return."

"Return?" At this time, Yan Yunxiang realized that more than ten minutes had passed.

"If we don't return, we will all be sharks early." The co-pilot looked at Yan Yunxiang. "I have searched this sea area several times. Nothing will be found."

"Okay, ready to return."

"No!" Before Yan Yunxiang could react, Lu Chengwen got into the cockpit. "Captain, you can't return now, you must send us to the submarine. Do you still have fifteen minutes of remaining oil on your plane? If you haven't found the submarine in fifteen minutes, it's not too late to return."

"But……"

As soon as Yan Yunxiang spoke, the co-pilot said in a hurry: "That is the backup oil during wartime, and it can only be used in battle, we..."

"I tell you that if we are not sent to the submarines, the war will break out before dawn!"

Both pilots were shocked, and it could be seen that the Special Forces Major was not joking.

"Continue to fly forward and be sure to find that submarine!"

As soon as Lu Chengwen finished speaking, a bright spot of light appeared on the radar screen in front of the deputy pilot. The deputy pilot immediately shouted: "I found it, it's about three nautical miles ahead. Look, is it the submarine you are looking for?"

"Major, look!" Yan Yunxiang also saw the submarine rushing out of the sea.

On the turbulent sea, the Calamari broke out like a shell and broke out. It was not until one-third of the hull was exposed to the air that it hit the sea heavily. Soon, the submarine was swallowed up by the huge waves. When the command platform exposed the water again, the submarine had already floated on the sea.

"Catch up, contact the submarines and ask them to send divers to prepare for the greeting."

As soon as Lu Chengwen left the cockpit, a second signal appeared on the radar screen. The deputy pilot hesitated for a moment and said to the captain: "Lao Yan, what's going on?"

"The second submarine?" Yan Yunxiang glanced at the radar screen and his eyes returned to the front.

"How come a second submarine appears? Isn't it just one submarine?"

"Send the message to the 'Calachite' number, we have to send them away as soon as possible!"

At this time, the fuel warning light has been lit, indicating that the remaining fuel is less than half of the fuel loaded.

In the cabin, all three special forces soldiers put on their diving suits and stuffed the box containing mysterious cargo into a special submersible thruster. The helicopter came over the submarine, and the three special forces soldiers walked to the cabin door in turn. As the height of the helicopter slowly decreased, the officers on the submarine sent out a light signal that could dive, Lu Chengwen was the first to jump out of the cabin and fell straight into the sea. Then, two other special forces soldiers pushed the submarine thruster into the sea and then jumped into the sea.

"The 'Calachite' number, the goods have been delivered, it's time to see you now."

After the last contact, the ka-27 helicopter turned around and flew away to the north.

On the submarine's podium, Hua Jianfeng looked at the flying helicopter, then picked up the telescope and looked in the direction where the helicopter discovered the periscope.

He is quite brave, but he dares to come up with him! Hua Jianfeng smiled coldly, but he was thinking about how to solve the trouble in front of him.

The Houston must have recorded the characteristic noise of the Calamari. Fortunately, the wind and waves at sea are too strong, so the Houston may not be able to take photos of the Calamari, and even the appearance of the Calamari can't be seen clearly.

If possible, Hua Jianfeng really wants to start first and use torpedo to solve the problem.

"Major, everyone has come to save people."

"All of them are rescued?" Hua Jianfeng looked at the captain who had just climbed up.

"Three special forces and a submersible thruster were all in the No. 3 sailor cabin. I asked someone to make them hot coffee, and it seemed that they were all frozen very lightly."

"Prepare to dive, go find the deputy director, let him take over the commander, and try to get rid of the 'Houston'."

After the last lookout went down, Hua Jianfeng left the podium and locked the upper and lower pressure-resistant hatch covers.

Within half a minute, the Calamari dived into the sea and dived rapidly at a 20-degree inclination.

Led by the cook who delivered coffee, Hua Jianfeng arrived at the No. 3 sailor cabin. More than 20 sailors living here had been driven away by the commander. There were only three special forces soldiers wrapped in towels in the cabin, and the submersible thruster covered with canvas.

When Lu Chengwen saw Hua Jianfeng, hesitated for a moment.

When submarine soldiers went to sea to perform missions, they wore cut out of linen and did not have regular military rank, so it was difficult for laymen to recognize the captain of the submarine from their outfits.

"I am Hua Jianfeng, the captain of the 'Calacht', you..."

"I am Lu Chengwen, the major of the 'Lion' Special Forces, and the commander of this operation."

Hua Jianfeng quickly looked at Lu Chengwen, his expression changed a little.

"We have seen it before?" Lu Chengwen was also recalling whether he had seen this major captain.

"No, we have never met before." After looking at Lu Chengwen again, Hua Jianfeng said, "During the exercise last year, I worked with Colonel Xiang Yinghui of your army and knew what kind of army you are."

After hearing Lu Cheng's report to his house, Hua Jianfeng's doubts were all resolved.

"Col. Xiang Yinghui is our captain. In this way, we are half an acquaintance."

"Is that so? The meeting gift you gave me is really not small." As he said that, Hua Jianfeng glanced at the submersible thruster. Intuition, Hua Jianfeng knew that the submersible thruster must contain very important things. Because the submersible thrusters used by special forces in carrying out combat missions are "one-time" and do not need to be recycled. Three special forces brought them to the submarine, indicating that the thruster, or the cargo contained in it, is very important.

"This..." Lu Chengwen immediately changed the subject, "Captain Hua, can I say a few words to you in private?"

"Extremely happy."

Hua Jianfeng gave a look at the commander who was following and the officers and soldiers watching outside. Lu Chengwen also nodded to the two special forces behind him and asked them to leave the sailor cabin. Then, the two closed the watertight hatch doors at both ends of the cabin respectively.

In the command center, Le Jiacheng stared at the electronic depth meter and kept beating numbers.

200 meters, 250 meters, 300 meters... When the reading became 330, Le Jiacheng pressed the helmsman's shoulder. "Five in the head, ten in the tail, and keep the speed."

The helmsman understands it, first adjusts the index on the depth controller to 330, then adjusts the index on the speed controller, and finally stabilizes the direction controller that looks like a car steering wheel. Next, the automatic control equipment on the submarine adjusts the navigation status of the submarine, and does not require the helmsman to directly control it.

A nuclear submarine with a displacement of thousands of tons is not a car. It took about ten seconds before the submarine's speed decreased.

"How is it, have you heard it?" Le Jiacheng looked at the sonar.

The sonar pressed his hands on the headphones and was listening attentively. He glanced at the sonar screen in front of him from time to time. He adjusted the control knob on the sonar panel. After a while, he shook his head at Le Jiacheng.

"Not found!?"

Didn't find it, it's not the best answer, but the worst answer!

Before floating, the Houston was not far from the Calamari. The submarine was not an aircraft, and within a few minutes, it could not escape the detection range of the passive sonar. It was not discovered that the Houston was not within the detection range of the passive sonar of the Calamari, but was in the detection blind spot of the passive sonar of the Calamari, that is, behind the butt of the Calamari.

"Full the left rudder, control the speed and depth, and don't make a sound." Le Jiacheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the sonar again. It must have been when the Calamari was diving quickly, the Houston did not dive immediately, and it slowed down its navigation speed and landed behind the Calamari.

As if he heard something, the sonar raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet, and then his face changed.

The thumping sound immediately made every officer and soldier in the submarine feel creepy, and he goes from head to soles of his feet.
