Super Dimension Technology Era
Chapter 179 Sinking
The USS Blue Ridge's island command center.
Lieutenant General Willard listened silently to the sound coming from the radio, Hammy Adams's final farewell communication, and the sound of the gunshot.
It was clear that there was no possibility of saving the Los Angeles.
The 8 destroyers and 6 auxiliary ships that hurriedly arrived were surrounding the Washington and carrying out rescue operations.
Fortunately, the watertight compartment prevented the Washington from sinking completely, and one-third of the hull was still exposed to the sea level.
Two specialized maintenance auxiliary ships approached the Washington on the left and right, preparing to assist the Washington in draining the water and righting the ship.
…
Qinling Mountains, Base 006.
Ye Qi and Li Yuanchao looked at the satellite surveillance screen and couldn't help but look at each other.
They didn't expect that things would turn out like this, and the result was unexpected.
Originally, according to the plan, they planned to randomly interfere with the Washington's nuclear reactor, making the other party think that the reactor was malfunctioning, forcing the Washington to return to the Yokosuka base for repairs.
Unexpectedly, the neutrino flow shielded a nuclear submarine altogether.
And the nuclear submarine accidentally collided with the USS Washington during the emergency refloating process, knocking it over directly. It is estimated that the nuclear submarine itself is also in danger.
I am really not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but I am afraid of teammates who are like pigs.
"What should we do now?" Ye Qi asked helplessly.
Li Yuanchao thought for a while, then looked at the satellite monitoring screen carefully. After a while, he suggested: "I suggest turning off the neutrino shielding after ten minutes."
"Why?"
"That nuclear submarine must have been in danger. It was hit again without power and should have sunk to the bottom of the sea in about ten minutes." Li Yuanchao explained.
Ye Qi thought so too.
"And now our neutrino shielding is actually helping the USS Washington suppress the reactor. If in ten minutes we..." Li Yuanchao said with a sly smile.
Ye Qi's eyes lit up, and he immediately thought of the situation after the neutrino shielding was lifted. Now the Washington's nuclear reactor was under unmanned control.
Once the neutrino shielding is lifted, the reactor will inevitably release heat automatically again. If the power system is not shut down, the propeller may be allowed to run again; if the power system is shut down, the heat that has nowhere to be placed will inevitably cause the reaction to accumulate thermal overload.
No matter which result it is, it is enough for the Washington to drink a pot.
…
The auxiliary ship is helping the Washington to quickly drain water, and then slowly righting the hull by balancing the water volume in the left and right cabins.
Helicopters and search and rescue boats are also busy rescuing sailors or pilots who have fallen into the water onto the ship.
Willard reported the current situation to the Pentagon with a headache. He knew that this time he was in big trouble.
Before the attack was successful, an Ohio-class ship was sunk on his side, and the Washington was seriously damaged.
On the USS Washington, the ship island rolled over and entered the water. Although the command module inside did not enter the water, the sudden rollover also caused the people inside to be thrown around, and many people even suffered bloody injuries.
Nowadays, it is very difficult to control the ship. The captain Martinsbury, who survived the disaster, couldn't care less about his broken arm and struggled to push away a person who was pressing on him.
At this time he felt that the ship was slowly returning to level.
"All conscious persons shall immediately assist in correcting the hull."
"Ahem..."
"Okay, Captain Barry."
Several soldiers who were not seriously injured quickly climbed up to the console tilted above.
However, they did not know that at this time, the data about the reactor on the dashboard was returning to normal. If the ship was in a normal state and the reactor was back to normal, then there would be no problem.
But now the Washington is lying on its side, the power system that has not been shut down is slowly starting again, and the propellers in the sea are spinning rapidly.
The two auxiliary maintenance ships that were discharging suddenly felt something was wrong.
"Oh! Shet..." The captain of the auxiliary ship was shocked because he saw the Washington maneuvering.
"Quick, evacuate..."
However, before he finished speaking, the auxiliary ship was surrounded by the Washington, which was spinning in circles.
Willard, who had just reported the accident, was stunned by the situation in front of him.
"What happened? The Washington's power has been restored again?"
However, the Washington, which was out of control, had no intention of stopping. The propellers were full of power and desperately pushed the hull to circle in place.
The two miserable auxiliary ships were suddenly in trouble. The auxiliary ship on the side of the island was directly hit by the island.
After all, the auxiliary ship weighs about 15,000 tons. Compared with the Washington, which has a displacement of hundreds of thousands of tons, it cannot withstand such a brute force collision.
Martinsbury, who had just woken up, was once again thrown against the bulkhead, and the soldiers who were trying to climb up to the console were also thrown down.
Suddenly, the protective glass of the Washington's cockpit was cracked open by a heavy object, and the terrifying propeller was inserted directly into the cockpit of the ship island.
Martinsbury felt a cramp in his body. It turned out that the propeller had penetrated into the cockpit and directly cut many people inside.
But even if he was not cut, he would still be dead, because the sea water had already surged in.
Gurgling...Martinsbury felt unprecedented pain, the pain of his body being torn apart, and the suffocation of being submerged in sea water.
In those long ten seconds, he experienced the last pain in his life.
Countless fragile flowers of life are withering at this moment.
The cockpit of the ship island was destroyed, which meant that the Washington lost the last possibility of control.
After a series of accidents, the water that had been drained from the interior of the Washington poured in unscrupulously again. Because the hull kept spinning in circles, other ships could not get close at all.
The power of a nuclear reactor is not like a heavy oil steam turbine, and there is no possibility of the fuel being completely consumed in a short period of time.
Not only was the Washington itself going to be doomed, but the two auxiliary ships that were trapped in the circle were also crying without tears.
The ship whose chrysanthemums were exploded by the ship island was already half paralyzed and had sunk more than half.
In the trench of the northwest Pacific, the Washington lingered for more than three hours and sank two auxiliary ships before finally sinking.
Willard could only watch helplessly as the Washington sank itself.
"It's over!" Willard slumped in his seat, perhaps mourning the sinking of the Washington, or perhaps lamenting his own future.
…
Qinling Mountains, Base 006.
"God is really helping me." Ye Qi laughed.
The others also started a heated discussion, but they did not expect that the first time the neutrino launcher was launched, it would overturn an Ohio-class nuclear submarine, a USS Washington aircraft carrier, and two auxiliary ships.
And they only paid millions of kilowatt-hours of electricity. This transaction is definitely a huge profit.
When thinking about the future and the completion of 12 neutrino transmitting stations, Ye Qi and others couldn't help but be excited.
"Everyone take a rest, I'll report the results."
"yes."
Huang Mingzhe, who was in Shanmei, was also shocked by Ye Qi's results after receiving the relevant reports.
Nether Mansion immediately held an emergency meeting to discuss the next situation.
The other thing is to keep this matter strictly confidential. If it is exposed, this is the rhythm of a full-scale filming. Even if it is exposed, it will have to wait until the twelve neutrino transmitting stations are completed.
Thank you for your support (ω`)
