These veterans of the U.S. Navy couldn’t be more clear about the combat effectiveness of the ship girls. In this regard, there is a saying that the Republic can’t keep up with them. There are only a few ship girls who came from other countries with pioneer “cows”. Battleships and starships are all built by themselves from the ore, one screw and one steel plate, and the understanding of creatures like ship girls is indeed very limited.

In their view, capital ships like Hood and Wales, who have undergone modernization and have a lot of actual combat experience, lead the current main force of the Royal Navy and clean up the Germans before the war (referring to the outbreak of the Zerg War, The same after) what pressure can there be on a broken ship.

Although it is said that the Youth Party also has some kind of ship girl, but can one ship girl beat two?No way, it's very difficult.

But their spectating time is almost here. As we all know, sometimes they like to watch the excitement, and it is easy to put themselves in it.

A stern battle alarm suddenly sounded in the submarine, and the sailors who were a little bit tired and lazy just now immediately cheered up. As a veteran naval power, the quality is still very reliable, and all the personnel on the entire ship arrived at their own within 1 minute. position, the weapon system is also ready for launch, and is ready to fight back at any time.

"What happened?"

Captain McManus nervously asked the intelligence observation system, and got a shocking answer.

"Colonel, I think we're under attack!"

At the same time, another sailor yelled: "Colonel, the source of the attack is from the east. There are several of them. They are approaching at high speed!"

"Immediately evade at full speed, allow exposure, proceed..."

Before McManus's order was finished, a large nuclear warning sign on the weapon observation system powered by new technology scared everyone out of their wits.

"My God! It's radiation! We've got a nuclear attack!"

"Are those German Reds?"

"Is the Republic crazy? Why did it privately hand over nuclear weapons to the Germans?"

The officers present were howling, and when they detected that the actual source of the attack was from the direction of Jutland in the east, their first thought was of course the Youth Party, and at the same time, they would naturally wonder whether the Republic violated the treaty with the United States, in order to help the youth The party overcame this difficulty and handed over the nuclear weapons to them privately.

But these are not important, because these are meaningless at present. There are radioactive weapons that have locked them and rushed over. This is the most important thing at present.

And at such a moment, a piercing voice suddenly sounded in McManus' ears:

"Colonel, let's launch a nuclear counterattack!"

Chapter 212 North Sea Nuclear Missile Crisis

"Colonel, let's launch a nuclear counterattack!"

As soon as this remark came out, the last second was as noisy as the whole interior of the submarine in the vegetable market, but suddenly there was no sound, and a needle could be heard.

McManus was also agitated, turning his head to look at the deputy captain next to him, with an expression of "Are you crazy?"

As a person who has served in the strategic nuclear deterrent force for many years, he knows very well that the most useful time for nuclear weapons is always when they play a deterrent role on the launch pad. Once they are actually launched, everything that happens later may seriously deviate from you. control.

You can start a nuclear war when you want, but you have absolutely no ability to end it when you want.

At least for humans who haven't really left the earth yet, once a nuclear war breaks out, the losses will be irreparable.

However, McManus also knew that the deputy captain's words were in line with the regulations. If a unit such as a strategic nuclear submarine was attacked by the opponent's preemptive nuclear attack, it would of course trigger the automatic nuclear counterattack mechanism of the US military system.

And the most terrible thing is that everything happened too fast, the opponent's attack was even more ghostly than my own black hole in the ocean, and there was no sign of discovery in front of it, and it was almost too late when it was discovered, and there was no time window to ask the White House for instructions up.

McManus took out the key of his nuclear launch system with difficulty, and immediately thought of the Cuban Missile Crisis confrontation that took place in October 1962, the situation he was in now, and the then Soviet Navy B How similar is the No. 10 "Foxtrot" nuclear submarine.It can be said that the decisions I have made in this short period of time will truly affect the development trajectory of all mankind, and the lives and deaths of thousands of people will definitely not be counted.

Feng Shui took turns, and I didn't expect that Americans would experience the plight of the Soviet Union at that time again.

"30 seconds of impact."

The cold synthesized prompt sound of the weapon system was like a heavy hammer hitting McManus' heart. He was sweating all over, and had to unbutton his inner shirt with trembling hands, while waiting for a reply from the White House. .

Although he was almost certain that it was impossible for the White House to come to a conclusion on this matter and reply to him within one minute, he was very clear that if he made a wrong decision, he might not be able to bear the responsibility alone.

"Colonel?"

The people next to him are all waiting for him to make a final decision. Although they can be [-]% sure that they will have to explain in a few tens of seconds, but as members of the strategic counterattack force, they are very serious about their responsibilities. Clearly, nuclear strikes back for the United States is the meaning of their service to this day.

At the same time, McManus glimpsed from the corner of his eye that the front sight of the sea-based nuclear missile had automatically locked on to Berlin.

Who would have thought that it would be a matter of watching a confrontation, and the nuclear submarine deployed in Europe mainly to implement the nuclear umbrella commitment to the allies and the nuclear deterrence to the Maozi when facing the Zerg has reached such a critical juncture.

McManus has never felt so nervous and sober. His brain is running wildly, he is sweating, his heart rate has exceeded 150, and his whole body is in a high level of hyperactivity.

Just in such a limit state, McManus's brain suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he suddenly caught a common sense problem that everyone didn't think of when they were highly nervous.

Under the anxious gaze of the crowd, his eyes slowly moved to the battlefield situational awareness system, where there is ballistic trajectory calculation for incoming weapons to assist the submarine in evasive operations.

Seeing that the countdown was about to advance ten seconds, the sailors were in a hurry to scold their mothers, and the deputy captain was even more heartbroken, and suddenly snatched from McManus the nuclear device that he had never made up his mind to unlock. The authority key, together with his own part, rushed directly to the launching device in two steps in three steps.

At this moment, he was suddenly pushed on the launch pad, and it was McManus who did it.

"Terminate the automatic nuclear counterattack procedure, immediately! The whole ship implements routine evasion! I will bear all the responsibilities!"

The question that McManus thought of in the blink of an eye is actually quite simple:

If the other party is really using nuclear weapons, why should they pursue "hits" in this way?

Does the nuclear bomb need to consider this error and distance?

You must know that the transmission of energy in dense water is stronger than that of air. If the opponent really uses nuclear weapons, even if the distance is farther, the energy transmitted through the water will be enough to cause serious damage to the fragile submarine shell. Floating is God's blessing.

That being the case, the other party's doing so has a feeling of "deterrence and misleading".The other party may not use real nuclear weapons at all, but once he is deceived, he will be the one who actually fired the first nuclear bomb.

At that time, I will become a sinner of mankind.

The United States directly intervened armedly without notifying the Republic at all, and directly used nuclear bombs to bomb urban targets like Berlin. What would the Republic think and how would it react?What will people all over the world think?Or will there be a direct outbreak of World War III at the level of a nuclear war?

Of course, McManus didn't think of so much in just a few seconds just now. This was all he thought of when he was sitting in a corner thinking about his life, but it was enough for him to notice something abnormal in the critical few seconds. .

When he realized that the situation might be fraudulent, although McManus was definitely not on the same path as the masses, his conscience still made him choose to forcibly terminate the nuclear counterattack.

Of course, this decision will directly ruin his entire military career. If the opponent hits a true nuclear bomb, it may be okay for him and the entire sailors to reimburse him. Whether the war can be avoided is not a matter for oneself to consider.And if it is indeed a fake nuclear bomb, no matter what the truth is, he will probably go to a military court when he goes back. The rest of his life is basically over, and it will be a good end if he can retire and die well. It doesn't matter anymore.

But his most basic kindness as a human being still allows him to make this choice at a critical moment, based on a less rigorous logical reasoning, and never regret it.

And it won't take long for the answer to be revealed.

Only 12 seconds later, as the submarine maneuvered at high speed regardless of exposure, the opponent's "nuclear weapon" exploded near the starboard side, and the energy transmitted by the water caused some structural damage to the submarine at close range, and the power system was down for half a minute, but indeed evaded the attack.

At the same time, this is of course not a nuclear bomb, not even a dirty bomb. The characteristic of the emission signal is that the system has been deceived.

Everyone at the scene looked at each other in blank dismay, and then fell into a carnival for the rest of their lives. After all, it is their duty to fight the nuclear counterattack, but who doesn't want to live a few more years?

As for who did the attack, the sailors didn't care, and McManus had already collapsed beside the launch pad. In just one minute, he seemed to have been drained of energy for a month. I fell into a state where I couldn't even organize my speech, my calf muscles were convulsed, and my whole body was sweating profusely like taking a bath...

Faced with this inexplicable sudden disaster, he knew that he had saved many, many people.

But he also knew that he was the only one who took part in his own life.His past achievements and everything in his second half of his life are now gone. A safe and sound death is now his only hope.

Not long afterward, the feedback from the White House finally arrived.

"Stop all operations, suspend the tasks of all service personnel in the ship, investigate the truth of the incident, suspend the launching authority of the ship's missile system, no action is allowed without the authorization of the president, and return to the base immediately..."

At the same time, the land, sea and air-based nuclear forces of the entire United States have entered a state of high alert and notified the Republic to prevent strategic misjudgments.

That night, the White House began to organize a special investigation committee to investigate the matter thoroughly.

The parties to the Continental confrontation, as well as the entire human race, walked on the brink of nuclear war without knowing it.

Chapter 213 The Glorious Years of Tirpitz

The sun is setting in the west, and the night time in the Beihai area is very early in January, and it has completely entered the night time after 1 o'clock in the evening.

The Eastern camp in the Jutland Sea, and the Albatross fleet led by Tirpitz, are staring here with high tension. The British army has not made any further moves, although at this point in time, the possibility of them thinking about going to war is already very low. , but the crisis has not officially resolved.

Tirpitz stood on his own bridge, face sinking like water, staring at the direction of the Royal Navy fleet in the southwest, in the empty unmanned warship, from time to time he heard the voices of other warships and sailors in the fleet reporting various information .

Her slender fingers tapped the table lightly. The hull has not been modernized and is still equipped with World War II, but it is very clean and tidy.

Speaking of her encounter with the Youth Party is also very dramatic.

When Tirpitz came to this world, it happened to coincide with the fierce battle in Australia after the defeat of the Central European War.Human beings as a whole are in panic, the European continent is in turmoil, and hundreds of millions of people are displaced. The collapse of the German industrial economy has brought about a serious economic crisis, and the whole of Europe is a sign of a pill.

At that time, Tirpitz returned to Germany all the way from Lingenfjord, and once thought that World War II was still going on. After all, according to her knowledge base at the time, apart from the World War, I am afraid that no war has such destructive power.

Although she was trapped in the Lingenfjord and was gradually sinking under the constant damage, she had a premonition that the demise of the Third Reich was only a matter of time, but she never thought that after she was reborn due to some mysterious force, what she saw in her eyes Germany is still raging with war, and even basically reached the brink of destruction.

At the same time, like Biffa, her physical condition was very poor when she arrived in this world, and she couldn't even guarantee fuel. In the chaotic ruins of Germany, it was difficult for even people to guarantee their own survival, let alone ships that needed industrial supplies. Mother.That's actually okay, but it would be even more troublesome if it was replaced by a technological ship girl like Bai Mao who could not do anything without the industry.

At this time, she was taken in by Uncle Mark, an engineer at the Hamburg shipyard, and then Uncle Mark tried to repair her body in the environment of social collapse at that time, got some oil and parts, and raised her, the "big eater", with difficulty. ", and also passed a lot of common sense and information on the development and changes of the world to her. A bunch of rough guys basically treated this older ship girl as her relatives and friends.

Then the Ba'athist army occupied Hamburg. In the various incidents caused by the high-handed rule and the corruption of army discipline, those who persisted in resisting during the Zerg War in Hamburg, as well as those who returned to their hometowns, became more and more disgusted with the Baathist Party. .

Uncle Mark later secretly joined the Al-Shabaab and led the armed movement of the shipyard workers. He was arrested by the Baath Party and executed in public.

When Uncle Mark was publicly hanged, he sang "Warsaw Song" and died. The last glory of Uncle Mark, who was covered in oil stains, rough beard and often full of dirty jokes, gave Tirpitz the definition of courage and honor. brought a huge impact.

A series of experiences caused Tirpitz's mentality to undergo a huge change.She was once a member of the Third Reich, and her dislike of the Soviet Union still exists, but this series of personal experiences made her have to start to have a question: What is the theory that united hundreds of millions of Soviet people?

The vast majority of all objections to true science actually come from ignorance.

Later, she sank down, and in the hometown of her first mentor, she really started to study the German version of "Das Kapital", as well as a series of works, and contacted the leaders of the Youth Party at that time, and was praised by the official media of the Republic as "European Continental". "Spark's new standard bearer", Professor Oren Hill, after answering questions, has determined his new direction.

Later, Tirpitz joined the Youth Party, went to the Republic to purchase weapons, and at the same time went to the central government to meet with the Grand Consul, and received a lot of guidance and promises.After returning to Europe, he led the Hamburg Uprising, and buried Uncle Mark and the 126 workers who died. They were also a bunch of stinky uncles who had taken care of Tirpitz in the shipyard together, and they were also the first batch of sparks to burn.

Later, with her strong combat effectiveness and leadership, she led the nascent Youth Party to fight all the way, and with the assistance of the Republic, she single-handedly established the Youth Party, an army capable of fighting well.After Professor Oren Hill took the initiative to make an appointment, she officially became the leader of the Al-Shabaab.In terms of prestige within the Al-Shabab military system, if it wasn't for keeping Tirpitz's identity secret, she would never be inferior to Winchester, who started in Nuremberg.

Ten years passed in a blink of an eye, the flames of war in Europe remained the same, the world was still in turmoil, and so was Tirpitz.It's just that she is now very convinced of the correctness of her way forward.Other than that, there are only comrades and comrades-in-arms who keep leaving and joining.

Looking away, Tirpitz ended his recollection of the past.

Although he looks youthful and beautiful on the outside, after so many ups and downs, Tirpitz's heart has been filled with heavy history. When he is alone, he always unconsciously recalls the past.

Of course, she also knows that all this is far from enough now. Even if Britain and France finally give up and retreat, the Baath Party will still be a centipede, and the long-cherished wish of liberating Europe will be even more distant. .

"Secretary, your old friend has arrived."

When Hannah's voice came through the communication, Tirpitz's heart skipped a beat. She already knew who the visitor was from the notice from the Republic.

The Doppler effect of the helicopter rotor gradually began to appear in the distant sky. It was a straight 20 series helicopter equipped by the Winchester army.The pilots of the army have not received training for landing at sea, so they fly to the sky above the deck of Tirpitz, and the mission is completed if they are directly lowered by the cable.

At the same time, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, because this basically means that even if the British finally jumped the wall and wanted to die, it was almost impossible to win.To be honest, she knew in her heart that with her current ship equipment, she would never be able to defeat Hood and the Prince of Wales. The other modern ships they led also had great performance advantages over her. However, this hardware gap cannot be completely offset by the operation of the ship's mother.

"Oh, I really envy that guy..."

Tirpitz felt like a girl for a long time, thinking that Bismarck used N times better equipment than herself, and had a powerful industrial system to support the battle. The most important thing was that she only cared about a battle or even being herself. Just do what you want, instead of worrying about the future of countless people who believe in you and work hard with you every day...

"It's great to have a commander."

Chapter 214 The Continental Crisis Ends

When the sun leaped from the east over the horizon of the Eastern European Plain on January 1, people all over the world breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the largest and most dangerous internal crisis in human beings after the Cold War has not yet broken out.
