Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

In Lin Yuan's time, it was absolutely nothing new for an icebreaker to be trapped by ice. The Chinese scientific research ship Xuelong once operated and rescued a Russian icebreaker trapped by ice floes. In [-], the US Coast Guard icebreaker " The "Arctic Sea" was once trapped by ice floes and was trapped in the ice floes for as long as a year.

However, for the Linyuan icebreaker at this time, there was a bigger problem of being trapped by the ice floe, that is, the ice floe was flowing, and the flowing ice floe would take the Linyuan icebreaker to nowhere. go.

In fact, for Nansen and Amundsen, ice floes pushing boats is not a new thing. During Nansen’s Arctic expedition, he planned to use the ice floes to push their boats into the North Pole.

In this dark polar night, the icebreaker Lin Yuan is about to challenge this huge ice floe.

Nansen issued an order to reduce the speed of the Linyuan icebreaker to six knots to reduce the impact force when encountering ice floes, and turned on the thermal jet system to prepare to melt the ice.

The thermal jetting system heats the air and sprays it out at high speed to melt the ice floes. The thermal jetting system equipped on the Linyuan icebreaker can theoretically deal with ice layers as thick as five meters, but in actual operation, neither knows.

The ice floe was getting closer and closer, and I saw a group of walrus lying on the ice floe. This kind of animal has long teeth, which is very similar to an elephant, but much uglier than an elephant. The whole body is round, like a big bucket , with wrinkled bodies, the walruses jumped into the water and wandered around when they heard the sound of the icebreaker Lin Yuan.

The huge ice floe was getting closer and closer. Finally, with a violent crash, a huge shock came from the bow, and the hull shook. At the same time, the echo sounder operator reported the exact thickness of the ice floe— —4.5 meters.

The crackling sound of ice shattering spread from the bow to the hull, and almost all the cabins were filled with this sound, which made people's ears hurt, and Guan'er involuntarily blocked her ears.

The Linyuan icebreaker did not rush up the ice layer as usual, but got stuck in the ice layer. Amundsen shouted at the top of his voice: "Launch thermals!" From the nozzle exit, the nozzle is located on both sides of the bow, behind the nozzle is a Laval nozzle that can accelerate the airflow to supersonic speed.

The airflow jets out at high speed, and the seawater outside the nozzle is pushed away by the airflow in an instant. The high temperature evaporates part of the seawater, turning into a large number of bubbles, gushing out of the water surface, and the airflow sprays on the ice floe, which melts in the blink of an eye. He leapt onto the ice and crushed the ice.

With the help of the thermal jet ice-melting system, the Linyuan icebreaker gradually came to the center of the ice layer. Both Amundsen and Nansen looked extremely solemn, because the thickness of the ice layer in the center was obviously more than theirs. It is expected that Nansen can see from the color of the ice that the thickness of the floating ice in the central area is likely to be more than 12 meters, which means that it is difficult for the Lin Yuan icebreaker to break through this ice.

Amundsen, who is in charge of the thermal jet ice-melting system, is even more nervous. At this time, the power of the thermal jet ice-melting system has been turned on to the maximum, and the maximum power state can only be maintained for 10 to 10 minutes. Otherwise, the entire system will be damaged beyond repair. It has been running at maximum power for [-] minutes now, and it will take at least two hours to drive out of the ice.

The last 10 minutes passed, and the icebreaker Lin Yuan was struggling to advance less than 100 meters. Amundsen could only order the system to reduce the power, and the ice layer could no longer be broken. no.

Nansen reluctantly accepted the fact that the icebreaker Lin Yuan was stuck in the ice floe, and they were stuck in the ice layer just ten days after they came out.

Nansen ordered the engine to be shut down, and everyone rested and stood by. He ordered the radio operator to ask for help from the Chinese military. In fact, it was useless to ask for help. The Chinese navy did not have any ships that could rescue the icebreaker Lin Yuan, and the Chinese navy could only send two Helicopter, send some food and fresh water to Nansen and Amundsen. This is not the Antarctic. The ice in the Antarctic is made of fresh water. The melted water can be drunk directly, but the ice in the Arctic is not good. The ice here is salt water. made,

As for how the Linyuan icebreaker escaped from danger, it can only depend on God's will. The thickness of the ice floes is not constant. Maybe one day the thickness of the ice layer will decrease. As for the specific day, no one can know, because It is related to the complex atmospheric environmental science, which is very complicated, and no one can do quantitative calculations yet.

The icebreaker Lin Yuan was stuck by the ice floes, but the crew showed expressions of relief. They were worried that what happened along the way finally happened, but the crew were relieved.

Amundsen led the crew off the icebreaker Lin Yuan and played football on the ice. Since Lin Yuan changed "cuju" to look like modern football, this sport has become popular all over the world.

Amundsen asked people to pick up four pieces of crushed ice, set up two goals, and divided them into two teams to play. Nansen was older, so he served as a referee on one side, while Guan'er and a few female Norwegian crew members served as cheerleaders on the other side. With the girls watching, the crew kicked harder.

But just after kicking for a while, the observation post of the icebreaker Lin Yuan sent a message: "Due west, something is coming."

What the observation post said was not "people", not "animals", but "things", which surprised everyone. At this time, human beings know very little about the North Pole. They only know that there are polar bears, seals, walruses, fur seals, etc. in the North Pole. Animals, I don't know if there are any unknown creatures.

Guan'er was very excited. She was full of curiosity about unknown animals. When she was in Africa, she once encountered an extremely poisonous thing that directly poisoned a horse. Until now, she didn't know what it was. .

Nansen was very vigilant, and decisively ordered his subordinates to return to the ship and take up weapons. Their weapons were originally old-fashioned shotguns, but after gaining Lin Yuan's support, Lin Yuan assigned them a batch of BQ-95 automatic rifles. It is managed by Guan'er, and Guan'er is responsible for teaching the crew to use it.

Even though Guan'er was just a coquettish little girl in front of Lin Yuan, she had been trained by Shen Wanqing, she knew how to use BQ-95, and her marksmanship was not bad.

The crew picked up their weapons and aimed at the direction that the thing was coming from. Guan'er wrapped cotton strips around all the metal parts of the gun body. This is because in the high cold area like the Arctic, once a person's skin touches the metal, Sweat may stick to the metal and cannot be removed without tearing off a layer of skin.
