Chapter 1218 Return Show (Second update, please subscribe)

As the car drove along Highway 1 towards Genting Highlands, the middle-aged man occasionally looked out of the window. There were endless houses on both sides of the road.

There is a small lawn and green trees in front of every house. These similar houses are reflected against the blue sky and white clouds, looking like a fairy tale.

This is Nanyang!

While expressing his emotion, the broadcast from the radio drew the middle-aged man's attention away from outside the car.

"The spokesperson of the Navy Command has released a piece of news to the outside world today - the Jiaolong nuclear submarine of the Nanyang Navy is about to complete the Navy's first underwater circumnavigation of the world. This feat is the second underwater circumnavigation of the world by humans after the US Navy's Poseidon nuclear submarine completed its underwater circumnavigation of the world last year..."

Listening to the news on the radio, the middle-aged man looked surprised and said after a long while:

"That's a nuclear submarine in the South Seas!"

After saying that, his eyes became a little complicated, but more of it was a kind of desire.

With the example of the US Poseidon nuclear submarine, this news does not seem to be a big deal, but it is different from the Americans.

The final destination of the Jiaolong nuclear submarine will be Taiping Bay, which immediately caused a sensation.

On the morning of April 4, yachts and boats were moored off the coast of Taiping Bay, and people were anxiously waiting for the soldiers to return from their long voyages.

Wang Axin, who was standing on the side of the ship, also blinked her eyes and stared at the sea. Now she is no longer the fledgling reporter. With the live broadcast of the first manned space flight, Wang Axin has long become the most famous female anchor on Asian TV.

When the Jiaolong nuclear submarine returned, the station naturally sent her out.

"How's it going? Are we there yet?"

"It should be soon!"

Under the dark and deep sea, the Jiaolong nuclear submarine, which has been diving underwater for 78 days, is like a sleeping giant, silently shuttling through the seabed.

What was different from usual was that these sailors had all changed into uniforms, and everyone's face was filled with excitement.

"Alright, guys, we're going home! The sanatorium in Genting Highlands is ready for us!"

When the Jiaolong nuclear submarine was about to enter the surface waters, Qi Guotao informed all crew members of the good news through a loudspeaker.

"Sir, we have arrived at the designated sea area."

After the navigator's report, Qi Guotao looked at the sailors in the cabin and smiled.

"Well, show them what you can do!"

Then he shouted loudly.

"Emergency ascent! Everyone get ready!"

His voice was steady and powerful, penetrating every inch of space through the radio waves and striking everyone's heart. The crew members acted quickly and orderly, as if every action had been rehearsed thousands of times and was in perfect harmony.

With the roar of compressed air, the submarine began to rise rapidly and at a large angle, like a warship going upstream. The submarine continued to accelerate and rise, and as the angle of the submarine increased, the sailors grabbed the surrounding fixed objects, waiting for the final impact.

Finally, with a loud "boom", the submarine broke through the constraints of the sea surface and bathed in the sun again.

The moment it rushed out of the sea, it was like a giant whale leaping out of the sea, with waves splashing everywhere, like a hymn of victory.
At the moment the Jiaolong nuclear submarine rushed out of the sea, the cameras on the helicopters in the air and the cameras on the nearby ships recorded this moment, and also presented it to the world through live TV broadcast.

"Here it comes, the Jiaolong nuclear submarine is like a giant whale leaping out of the sea from the bottom of the sea..."

Wang Asin spoke excitedly into the microphone.

The moment the Jiaolong nuclear submarine regained its balance on the sea, the sea was filled with cheers.

After 76 days of underwater voyage, the Jiaolong nuclear submarine finally saw the sunlight again.

Sailors came out, and the long-lost sunshine fell on everyone's shoulders. The crew smiled at each other and waved their arms to the people who welcomed them back.

At this time, there was no secrecy, only glory. This glory belonged to everyone, not just the naval soldiers, but also to all the Nanyang people.

The TV cameras were aimed at these naval soldiers and the Jiaolong nuclear submarine. Under the watchful eyes of the whole world, the Jiaolong nuclear submarine sailed towards Taiping Bay. At the same time, all the surrounding ships sounded their whistles.

This is how people welcome the return of travelers from faraway places!
The TV reporters praised it with all kinds of words. It must be said that when it comes to inspiring national pride, the Nanyang military is very good at it - the Air Force likes to send planes to support during major sports events, and even strategic bombers have flown over stadiums. As for the Navy, although it often holds open days and also sends planes to sports events, it is still a little inferior.

This time, they seized the opportunity.

The Jiaolong nuclear submarine's voyage around the world was a secret - the departure was a secret, but the return was a grand event.

When the black submarine sailed into Taiping Bay under the watchful eyes of the world, those heroic sailors appeared on TV.

All of a sudden, the whole world knew that they were the most handsome guys.

For the Navy, they had another advertisement - making the whole country feel proud of the Navy's circumnavigation of the world.

For the rest of the world, this was also a publicity stunt. Even among the ships welcoming the return of the Jiaolong nuclear submarine, there were many yachts hired by foreign intelligence personnel, who used high-powered cameras to take as many photos of it as possible.

That afternoon, clear photos were presented to intelligence personnel from various countries. Looking at these photos, the submarines and the crew members in the photos, Alexander, a KGB intelligence agent, felt extremely stressed.

"I really didn't expect that Nanyang's nuclear submarine technology would be so advanced."

Alexander stared at the photo, cigarette between his fingers, and said:

"Although our nuclear submarines have been put into service, they have not yet carried out similar voyages. However, Nanyang has followed the United States in carrying out such a round-the-world voyage."

"Yes, this is not a voyage, but a test. This shows that its nuclear reactor is extremely reliable, and the submarine's own performance is also excellent. According to the intelligence we have, the ballistic missile nuclear submarine in Nanyang is improved on the basis of the "Jiaolong" class nuclear submarine with an additional missile compartment. This also means..."

Ivan walked to the wall, stood in front of the map, and said:
"Their ballistic missile nuclear submarines can sail into the Atlantic Ocean like the Jiaolong nuclear submarine, and then deploy for a long time in appropriate sea areas..."

After thinking for a while, he pointed to Nigeria in Africa and said:

"Nanyang has a space tracking and control station here, but the area of ​​this detection station is dozens of square kilometers. Not only does it have a tracking and control station, but it also has an airport and a port. They even hired mercenaries to protect the safety of the tracking and control station in the name of security..."

Before Ivan could finish, Alexander said:

"That's not a space tracking and control station. It's clearly a military base. Their submarines can be deployed there in the future. There are also the Falkland Islands, British Guiana, Kenya, and Paradise Island..."

As Alexander spoke, he marked the overseas bases in Nanyang on the map with a pencil, and then said in an envious tone:

"In the name of space tracking and control, they have established their army, navy and air force bases all over the world. Those bases are the bases for their military expansion around the world."

This is the most enviable thing. As a member of the Western world, Nanyang easily obtained large overseas bases from Britain. These bases distributed around the world are exactly what the Soviet Union longed for, but each overseas base of the Soviet Union required a huge price.

Just like although the Soviet Union acquired a naval base in Ethiopia, they spent hundreds of millions of rubles for this base. They not only provided it with a large amount of arms, but also provided hundreds of millions of rubles to help them build modern farms.

In a word, overseas bases are very expensive, but in comparison, Nanyang has acquired large tracts of overseas territories at almost no cost - all of which were obtained in the name of leasing.

"They said it was for space purposes, but in fact it was for military purposes, to fight against the Soviet Union!"

Ivan took a puff of his cigarette, turned around and said to Alexander:
"In the future, their submarines and fleets can be deployed in these areas, around the world, to surround us together with the Americans and the British!"

After that, he walked to the photo again and stared at the submarine in the picture that had just completed a circumnavigation of the world. Ivan's expression became more and more complicated. After a long time, he spoke.

"What a lucky bunch of guys, they managed to complete a round-the-world voyage in such a short time. They must be sailing very fast!"

After mumbling to himself, Ivan asked:

"Alexander, where do you think they will go after their voyage is over?"

"They should be sent to a sanatorium. After 76 days of underwater sailing, everyone must have been extremely exhausted. They will definitely be sent to a sanatorium for recuperation, just like our sailors are sent to after returning from a long voyage."

When mentioning the sanatorium, Alexander couldn't help but say:

"Sometimes, I feel that this country is somewhat similar to the Soviet Union. Although it is a country ruled by capitalists, the way they treat the people seems a bit like us, just like the sanatoriums everywhere here."

With a cigarette between his fingers, Alexander's eyes became a little complicated.

"Well, this is just my personal opinion."
