The technological competition starts with the integration of space-time memory

Chapter 384: Death
After reading it, Wu Honghai couldn't help but sneer.

It turned out that the imperial rear base issued an order requiring the "Kentucky" to search for the East Japanese nuclear submarine.

In other words, this guy doesn't intend to leave and wants to keep pestering me.

"Since you are blind, I will send you there to play."

Wu Honghai knew the underwater terrain in this area very well. He planned to use a bait submarine to lead the "Kentucky" into a desperate situation.

Then send him to heaven.

When Wu Honghai was about to order the bait submarine to lure the enemy when the enemy dived, he found that the enemy was still at the communication depth and had not moved.

Just when he was wondering, he found that the war brain sent another cracked message.

Thanks to the previous crack, this time the crack was done in almost seconds.

It can be said that the encryption is cracked as soon as the encrypted information is received.

When Wu Honghai saw this message, his scalp went numb.

What does the Empire want to do?

Is this the beginning of the mushroom war?
The message was as follows: "Latest mushroom counterattack operation order: All mushroom eggs on the boat have their safety activated and are on standby for launch.

Please accept the final launch code and prepare to enter the final launch operation procedure!"

Not only Wu Honghai felt his scalp tingling, but also Lieutenant Colonel Foryer who was receiving the order.

To this end, he also sent a message to the headquarters base to confirm the order again.

The reply was, "At this critical moment for the survival of the empire, the Mushroom Operation Order has been approved by the Supreme Commander. Please enter the final launch code and wait for the final order to enter the combat procedure."

Freir and the second-in-command looked at each other, their eyes revealing an expression of disbelief and fear.

Unexpectedly, their submarine voyage this time was actually the combat moment they had been waiting for.

Could it be that earth-shaking changes have taken place in the outside world in this week?

No wonder the Eastern Japanese submarines had ambushed their own submarines without hesitation before.

The two looked at each other and confirmed the contents of the calls from headquarters twice before starting to issue orders according to the operational procedures.

"Turn on the missile safety and prepare for launch."

"The original target address remains unchanged."

"Enter the final combat code."

When everything was ready, Freir waited for a while and did not receive any orders from headquarters to launch immediately, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

The deputy captain said at this time: "Lieutenant Colonel, didn't the headquarters still ask us to dive and search for and track the East Japanese nuclear submarine? Do we still have to carry out this mission?"

Freir thought for a moment and said, "Although we have entered the final combat procedure, the final order has not yet been issued. We should dive and find the submarine first."

"Yes, prepare to dive, depth 500 meters."

After the water tank was filled with water, the huge hull of the "Kentucky" slowly sank downwards.

Soon the depth exceeded 100 meters.

200 m.

300 m.

400 m.

500 m.

"Maintain depth, keep the boat level, and search with passive sonar."

Since we have just escaped from the target, if we want to find the other party now, we have to pray that the other party has not escaped during this period of time.

However, the time is so short that if the other party really evacuates at full speed, they will be discovered by me at this time.

On the other hand, Freir did not dare to turn on the active sonar, as that would be like turning on a flashlight in the dark seabed. He would be discovered by the enemy before he could illuminate the target.

Although his submarine had just surfaced, the passive sonar was still monitoring the surrounding environment. If the opponent wanted to escape at full speed, its position would be exposed.

Since I didn't notice any such movement, it means that the other party is very likely hiding in that trench.

Sure enough, just a few minutes later, the sonar operator reported, "The target is found, still the same signal, 5 nautical miles away from us, speed 20 knots, diving depth 550 meters!"

Fleur looked at the nautical chart and found that the trench was quite long. If he didn't catch up, the other party would most likely escape from the other end of the trench.

"Chase him!" Fleur gave the order.

The "Kentucky" quickly increased its speed. Its maximum submerged speed was 25 knots, so it quickly closed the distance between the two sides.

Obviously, as the distance got closer, the other side discovered the "Kentucky" again.

The opponent also quickly increased the speed and soon reached 25 knots.

From the dynamic nautical chart, Fleur could see that the two submarines were now chasing each other and shuttling back and forth in a trench.

After tracking for about ten minutes, the sonar operator shouted: "The terrain has changed and is inconsistent with the nautical chart. Please pay attention to navigation safety."

Freir couldn't help but be shocked. This Japanese nuclear submarine was really familiar with the terrain.

When did this trench change again?
It seems that earthquakes are frequent in East Japan, and the seabed topography is prone to change.

Is it necessary for me to chase after him?

"Its speed has slowed down, but it's diving again. The depth is 600 meters and it's still descending!" Fleur looked at the dynamic nautical chart. Because the nautical chart for this area is no longer accurate, there is an unknown area ahead.

The East Japanese nuclear submarine dived, and it is obvious that deeper places can be passed. The other party may use this terrain to escape.

"Dive to 600 meters and chase them. The speed will reach 18 knots!"

The huge hull of the "Kentucky" was passing through the underwater canyon. Fleer could not see it, but the sonar sensed that the cliffs on both sides of the canyon were not far away.

"Lieutenant Colonel, its signal is intermittent again."

Fleur was a little surprised. Was there some background noise here?

"Oh my God, two torpedoes coming at six o'clock!"

Freyr was immediately shocked. How come there were enemies behind his submarine?

Have I fallen into a trap again?

"Quick, go at full speed! Be careful to avoid falling rocks!"

Without time to think, Freir ordered the submarine to speed up. The dynamic nautical chart showed that although this section of the canyon had narrowed a bit, there were some small turns.

If I suddenly accelerate, perhaps the torpedo fired from behind will directly hit the cliff of the canyon.

Sure enough, the sonar operator reported that two loud explosions were heard from the rear.

"Lieutenant Colonel, a section of the cliff in the canyon behind us collapsed due to the explosion. The canyon channel may be blocked. We may not be able to retreat."

Freir suddenly had a bad thought. Could it be that the Eastern Japanese wanted to trap him here?
The top of the canyon channel has now become a structure that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, which means that the submarine is like drilling a hole at the bottom, and the space above is not enough for the submarine to float directly out of the canyon.

"Sonar operator, how far is the Eastern Japanese nuclear submarine from us?"

"The other team has increased their speed. Oh my god, 30 knots!"

"Hurry, it's about to run, follow it!"

Fleur had no time to think about how the other party could have a diving speed of 30 knots.

At this moment, he judged that the other party would definitely make a drastic move and use torpedoes to blow up the cliffs of the canyon ahead, trapping him in this section of the canyon with nowhere to go.

"Oh my god, it's going 40 knots! That's impossible!"

The sonar operator's exclamation shocked everyone in the boat.

Everyone had an expression of disbelief on their face. How could a nuclear submarine be so fast?

"Quick, go full speed ahead, speed up to the maximum speed!"

Fleur further confirmed that the other party wanted to get rid of him by using this warning. If the other party launched a torpedo to destroy the cliff and block the canyon passage, he would be buried here.

Only by rushing out of this canyon at high speed together with the other party can we escape.

However, just one minute later, what awaited Flair was despair.

"Oh my god, it's floating up. How can it pass through such a narrow canyon gap above?"

The sonar operator's shout stunned everyone.

Flair felt like he was hit by a stick and was a little dazed.

How is it possible to float up?

The gap is clearly not wide enough for a nuclear submarine to surface!
"Oh my god, there is no road ahead, brake, brake quickly! We are going to hit the rock wall!"

The USS Kentucky nuclear submarine, which was diving at high speed, was like a needle shuttling through the deep sea, and suddenly crashed into a rock wall less than 1 kilometer ahead.

At this time, Freir looked at the deputy captain, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, "We still have a chance to launch..."

The deputy captain understood and said, "But we are not at the launch depth."

"This is the coast of East Japan. If we can't launch it, it will explode on the spot, which will also cause radiation damage to the damn East Japan!"

"Then let's kill him!" shouted the deputy captain.

The other crew members nearby heard this conversation, but as death was imminent, a sense of tragedy surged in their hearts.

Everyone shouted in unison, "Fuck him!"

Flair immediately gave the order, "Fire! Fire! Fire!"

The submarine is equipped with 20 Trident intercontinental missiles, each equipped with 14 mushroom-egg warheads, and the equivalent of each mushroom egg is at least 5 tons.

The Ohio-class nuclear submarine needs to balance its hull every time it launches 2-3 missiles. At this time, it is about to hit the rock wall on the seabed, so Fryer does not need to worry about whether it can be launched.

As long as the password verification is passed and the launch state is reached, the mushroom egg will eventually explode.

He believed that the explosion of 280 mushroom eggs on the seabed along the coast of East Japan would be enough to cause great damage to East Japan.

This will be worthy of the sacrifice of the 155 officers and soldiers on this submarine.

The "Kentucky" still pulled the emergency brake to buy time to complete all missile launches.

When the submarine's speed dropped below 10 knots, all missiles were in the firing state, and the entire hull completely lost balance and was in a skewed state.

The huge inertia still made it like an underwater killer whale, slamming sideways against the towering rock wall, and in an instant several cracks appeared on the hull.

Under the strong water pressure, the crack expanded rapidly.

All the members in the boat were hit so hard that before they could recover, they were rushed in by the huge current and completely swallowed up.
