Infernal Hero

Chapter 401 Battle in the Deep Sea

"The situation is very tense right now. There is also a submarine nearby, and it is not our submarine." Gu Tianyou returned to the command hall. "There aren't many navies in the world capable of patrolling this area," Don said solemnly. "There are even fewer that can evade our detection, and it's very likely that they will detect us. So, I have to regret to inform you that we have encountered a terrible opponent, either Sea Wolf or Ohio."

Long Jianmei and Sun Jingfei had also come out at some unknown time. Perrin was also there, so he could tell that he was very nervous.

"There's no chance. Charles won't let me be brought alive to the Republic or return to the United States." Standing behind the sonar captain, he stared fixedly at the sonar detection screen and said, "It can only be the Ohio class attack nuclear submarine of the Fifth Squadron. With this new electric submarine that is not yet mature in technology, it is impossible to defeat it."

Dun He's eyes flashed with a fanatical light and he didn't say anything. The Kun Peng snorted and said, "Strength and weakness are not spoken with the mouth. Only after fighting will we know."

There has been no war in the Republic for thirty years, but this does not include the submarine forces. As the sword of the country and the most important part of its strategic power, the battle between the submarine units was never on the surface.

The sonar captain suddenly raised his hand to signal that something was happening.

"The other party sent out an attack sonar wave. It's behind our butts."

Dun He nodded slightly and waved his hand at the Kun Peng, saying, "You command."

"Ten at the beginning, five at the end, one-third of the power!" The Kun Peng carried out the orders of the Dun He River and gave orders to the helmsman.

The bow of the submarine lifted slightly and sailed towards the sea at an elevation of about five degrees.

"What happened?" Sun Jingfei was shocked and asked Kun Peng.

"Go up and meet our friend from the United States." The Kun Peng's tone was calm, but his fanatical gaze revealed the excitement in his heart.

"It's just going up to the depth of the periscope." "It's an unwritten rule between submarines," Dun He explained. "A sonar bang indicates that they want to communicate with us, that is, go up to the depth of the periscope and communicate with a light signal."

As soon as he returned to the command center of the submarine, Gu Tianyou noticed the breathless tension. At this moment, the only person who was truly calm was Dun He .

Gu Tianyou asked, "Has the other party confirmed our identities?"

"Maybe I know, maybe I don't." Kun Peng sighed, "In order to pick you up, we have to reveal our whereabouts. In the past few days, we have encountered them several times, but they have never caught us. I'm afraid we won't be as lucky this time."
'"In other words, the other party may not know who we are, so he tempted us to float up, so that we can identify ourselves. Doesn't this mean that he will definitely expose our identities?" Gu Tianyou hurriedly confirmed.


Dun He nodded and said, "This is the first time the Swordfish has come out on a mission. They probably don't know who we are."

Gu Tianyou said resolutely, "So we can't go up and reveal our identities, because their goal is not to save people, but to kill them!"

The opponent was already in an advantageous position and was faster than Swordfish. If Swordfish did not ascend to the depth of the periscope, it was very likely that it would escalate the confrontation. Thinking of the special operation deployed by Sun Jingfei and the commanders of the Navy Command, Dun He was almost certain that even if the other party did not use force, they would still force the Swordfish to float above the surface of Shanghai by collision.

Dun He narrowed his eyes and was still thinking. He is now a submarine commander, not an agent. What needed to be considered now was more of a tactical aspect. As for how important Perrin was and how strategic it would be to get him back, it was not something he should have thought of at this moment. To him, there was only one factor that affected his decision. Regardless of whether he was exposed or not, it would lead to an escalation of the confrontation. He had to decide what to do in order to have a better chance of winning this confrontation!

"You're right." Dun He lit up a cigarette and extinguished it immediately after taking a single breath. After thinking for a while, he said, "Based on my experience, I can basically confirm that the other party does not know our true identity yet, but it is very likely that he has grasped our characteristic noise."

Gu Tianyou said, "Floating upwards will expose your identity. You will definitely be sunk. If you do not float up to the height of the periscope, you will be regarded as an unfriendly gesture. The confrontation will also escalate. No matter what, it will be a fight. I don't think there is anything to hesitate about."

Dun He said with a serious expression, "The biggest question is who will bear the consequences of the war. Regardless of whether the number one naval force in the world can win, even if it wins, the Ohio class nuclear submarine is 170 meters long and has more than 200 people. Can you imagine how the United States will react once it is sunk?"

"Fight if necessary!" Gu Tianyou said resolutely, "I'll carry the sky down first. It's better to sink into the sea forever than not let go of a single shot."

'"Captain, I have a few words to tell you. The Swordfish is the future of our submarine forces. If one day we can have the same maritime control as the United States Navy, I believe the rise of the Swordfish must have started." Kun Peng's face turned cold as he said, "Captain, I have a few words to tell you."

Dun He's eyes were sharp, and a cold light flashed. He had clearly made up his mind. He said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, then let's light up the sword!" As he spoke, he directly stepped into the command position and instructed the helmsman, "Stop floating and report the other party's position."

"Three hundred and ten degrees, thirty chains away!" Kun Peng Hui reported: "Just a few seconds ago, the other party sent out a directional high-frequency signal, probably mapping our shape."

"At least it's not too late." Dun He didn't feel the slightest bit surprised. His expression was the same as usual as he continuously gave the order, "Right now, under my command, the entire ship is in combat state. Number three fish buds have set up firing data. Bottom fifteen, bottom fifteen, left full rudder, full power propulsion. Sonar, monitor the enemy ship's situation."

"Yes!" The Kun Peng excitedly commanded everyone to enter a state of battle. The red lights in the cabins of the ship immediately flashed. In less than ten seconds, the Swordfish had entered a combat state.

Like a deep-sea monster, the swordfish with a displacement of 3,800 tons descended at a rapid speed. This is the answer to the other party. Tactical evasion. Let's see how you deal with it. If you want to fight, then fight!

"Captain, Ohio is following us!" Sonar Chang Hui reports.

Dun He nodded, his expression grave and steady. When Gu Tianyou saw this, the middle-aged captain's face did not show the slightest emotion.

The battle had already begun, and one of the two submarines was destined to remain on the seabed of this desolate sea forever.

Three hundred nautical miles east of Pemba Island, three hundred and fifty meters below the surface of the sea, the Swordfish was pushed by a deep undercurrent and slowly drifted northeast at a speed of less than three knots. Inside the submarine, the natural circulation pressurized water reactor is operating at idle speed, driving the propulsion shaft to rotate slowly at a speed of five revolutions per minute. The officers and soldiers were even more gentle when they moved, afraid that they would make a sound. For three consecutive days, the kitchen staff had nothing to do, because cooking would make a noise.

Inside the sailor cabin, a soldier made a sound as he opened the canned yellow croaker, immediately attracting the gazes of the others. The sailor also quickly made a grimace and shrank to his bunk. Gu Tianyou and Long Jianmei sat shoulder to shoulder on the opposite bunk and looked at each other. At this time, no Grand Grandmaster or Grand Expert was of any use. Life or death depended on the performance of this submarine and these officers and soldiers.

Because one-third of the sailors slept in "hot bunks", there were no extra bunks on the submarines for the "queue jumpers". Therefore, these people could only gather together with the soldiers to rest. The little dragon girl refused the single room privilege in the captain's room. She had to stay with the eighth uncle at all costs. On the contrary, the sergeant sleeping on this bunk could go to the captain's room to make a bunk.

Little Dragon Maiden was the king of heavenly weapons. She had experienced all sorts of difficult circumstances. She didn't dare to raise her head when she peeked at these sailors. If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't make noise, they would have been giggling together long ago.

Gu Tianyou pushed open the door and entered the captain's room. Dun He was immersed in reading a book called "Jin Lin is not the dirt in the pond".

"Sure enough, old driver." Gu Tianyou joked casually.

Dun He pointed at the Kun Peng's shop opposite him and said, "I borrowed it from a young man." He put down the book and said, "Is something the matter?"

"How is the situation now?" '"Do you think that Ohio would have given up on pursuing us back long ago?" Gu Tianyou asked straightforwardly.

Dun He subconsciously took out his cigarette. He said more than once that he was going to give up smoking. He always said that he was going to smoke his son's college money. But these days, he smokes a lot of cigarettes. Slowly shaking his head, he suddenly asked, "Mr. Gu, do you trust your intuition?"

Gu Tianyou smiled and said, "Originally, I might have been the most accurate person in the world, but now that I have reached a third of an acre of land, I am completely useless, but I believe in my intuition."

"As a submarine commander, my instincts tell me that this is a patient opponent, he will not give up easily."

Gu Tianyou said, "You mean that the enemy is nearby and is waiting for us to show ourselves and give us a fatal blow?" "I think the submarine is a sniper in the sea, ambush well, wait patiently for the enemy to appear, and then shoot to death! Isn't that so?" He said with a smile.

Dun He said, "You can say that, but it can't completely summarize the contents of the submarine warfare."

"We've always been at a disadvantage," Gu Tianyou said. "I don't think you're worried?"

"I really envy my opponent." Suddenly, an inexplicable sentence came out of the Dun He River.

Ohio had already confirmed that the Swordfish was a new submarine and had always occupied a favorable position. They had come with a mission, so they would definitely not let it go. They would definitely not let it go. They would definitely not let it go. It was very likely that they would take action before the situation deteriorated and sink the Swordfish! As the overlord of the sea, the United States Navy did not have much to fear. Comparatively speaking, although Dun He was certain that he could break his wrist with him, he missed out on many good opportunities because of his misgivings.

"The Swordfish is strong enough to contend against the Ohio class." Dun He continued, "The prerequisite is that we can let go of this battle!"

The country is weak and the individual is strong. Even if he has the ability to reach the heavens, he cannot display it.

Gu Tianyou understood what he meant this time and said, "There will be a day."

Dun He smiled and looked at the time. "It's my turn to be on duty." As he spoke, he stood up and walked towards the command center.

Gu Tianyou was filled with curiosity about the confrontation between the submarines. The silence he had been enjoying for days was already enough. He was afraid that he would miss something if he didn't catch up with one thought. He hurriedly got up and followed him to the command center. Long Jianmei was also there, standing behind the Kun Peng with her hands behind her back. Sonar looked at her with a long face filled with anger, as if something had just happened here.

"What's going on?"
