"Out of the water!" One of the sailors reported: "Hit the enemy ship!" ”

Lin Song and Liam immediately shouted: 'Good! ’

But Lin Song soon found that in the wheelhouse of the submarine, the other sailors and officers did not seem to see the slightest joy, and Lin Song understood that the so-called 'enemy ship' that was fighting with them now was still a brother who fought side by side with them just a few hours ago.

In any case, this ** hit left a little respite for everyone on the submarine, and Captain Fran ordered the submarine to turn quickly and find a way to get rid of the other party by virtue of the advantage of speed.

Yes, in this case, being able to get rid of the other party is the best strategy, why fight to the death with your brother Lin Song looked at the deep sea outside the porthole and sighed lightly.

It's just that those people on the Yaksha can also figure out this truth?

"I don't know what the battle damage on the Yaksha is." Fran said, "Looks like they've given up on following them. ’

Lin Song nodded and said, "This Yaksha should have been modified from the Hamilton level of the Black Country." ”

Fran looked at Lin Song and smiled: "I can't see that you are an expert." ”

"It's nothing, I got into the habit of learning about weapons and equipment in the army." Lin Song said: "When I came here, I read some introductions about the navy of the Polkadot country, not to mention ......."

"What's more, the navy of the country of Boka has no family background in the first place." Fran said, "You're right, we only have two fleets in total, a neighboring island fleet and a home fleet.

But our two fleets together may not be as large as a detachment of your South China Sea Fleet. ”

Lin Song smiled and said nothing, Fran said: "And compared with your ship-building frenzy in China in the past two years, we are even more backward. All of you are new warships that are two or three years old, or even newer.

But we, the Hamilton class of the seventies, are still in service. Don't look at their large displacement, but their defense system, power system, weapon system are all outdated.

So if we really continue to fight just now, even if they have deep water**, we may not suffer a loss, and in the end we may even sink them directly. ”

Lin Song nodded: "But you still ran away with the submarine, because you want to avoid fratricidal confrontation with your comrades, believe me, as a Chinese soldier, we understand your feelings very well." ”

The two of them were chatting, and suddenly, the hull of the submarine suddenly began to shake violently, and Lin Song frowned: "What's the matter?" ”

"I don't know." Fran frowned: "Report the battle damage!" ”

"The shock wave of the deep-water ** just now damaged the propeller on the right side of our hull, and one of the blades has been seriously deformed. And we are now far from the dock, I'm afraid it can't be replaced. The soldier said.

Fran grimaced: "How far is it from the home coastline now!" ”

"As things stand, our maximum speed can only be maintained at about thirty knots, and it will take at least fifteen to twenty hours to arrive. But...... But where we are now, we may not be able to last that long.

In the attack just now, the counterweight compartment was flooded, and I am afraid it could only last for about an hour at most. ”

Lin Song hurriedly asked, "What does this mean?" Hold on for an hour? ’

"The counterweight compartment is the key to adjusting the submarine's diving altitude." "If the counterweight tank gets flooded, it means we're about to lose the ability to adjust the height of the submarine," Fran said.

Now we have only two options, one is to continue to lurk below the surface, but at most an hour, when we completely lose the ability to adjust, we are doomed to sleep at the bottom of the sea.

The other way is to float up immediately and stay semi-submersible. I know that the equipment of the radar station on the neighboring island is very old, and the submarine in the semi-submerged state, looking at their equipment, shows the radar characteristics of an ordinary fishing boat.

Of course, this is a second-best option. After the ascent, in order to avoid silence, I will completely close the counterweight compartment, and then we will not be able to dive again. ”

"But it's the only way to save our lives." Lin Song said: "Let's float, safety is more important now." ”

Ten minutes later, the submarine slowly rose to the surface, and Lin Song, Liam, and Fran had a meeting. Fran said: "I just received a new battle damage situation. We are running out of fuel. ”

Liam was anxious all of a sudden: "Didn't I tell you before that you should be ready to return to the native coastline!" Why is there still a shortage of fuel! ”

"This is a miscalculation on our part, we did not think that there would be a battle during the voyage, I think you have no concept of underwater warfare with submarines! In this case, the consumption of fuel is terrible! ”

Lin Song hurriedly said, "Okay, now is not the time to complain. Fran, you're the captain, and now I want you to come up with a solution. ”

"There is no solution, who made us not nuclear submarines, our endurance is not so strong." "Two ways, turn off the engine and go with the flow at sea," Fran said. Our supplies are quite sufficient, and there is no problem in supporting us for about a month. The problem is that in this case, once discovered by the opposing ship, we will definitely not be able to escape.

Another way is to slowly return to the neighboring island in a low-power state. After all, the neighboring island is 20,000 square kilometers in size, and it is impossible for them to completely block off the coastline. When we get back, we try to hide the princess. Make another plan. ”

Everyone looked at each other, and finally Lin Song said, "I agree with Fran and go back to the neighboring island." ”

Liam smiled bitterly: "There seems to be no other way than this." ”

"In that case, let's go back at once." Fran said: "The Yaksha should have returned, and they will bring back the news of our return to the mainland, and the focus of their search will be the mainland coast." In this case, if we turn around and kill back, they will not find out! ”

The crowd immediately took action, and after a voyage of more than two hours, the submarine returned to the open sea of the neighboring island. Fran commanded the sailors to release the three lifeboats.

Princess Irene got into the lifeboat under the protection of four female bodyguards, Lin Song followed with the snow wolf group, and Liam got into the second boat with several members of the guard. On the third boat, there was a team sent by Fran.
