Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2505 How many secrets are there?

Just as Yang Xiaotao was talking with the other two about how to get Chen Gong to go to school to recruit talents, a huge monster was slowly moving forward under the surface of the Western Pacific Ocean.

The teardrop-shaped head and slender body gently cut through the sea water, and the broken water flow slid along the hull to the back.

At this moment, the sunlight above the giant creature's head was blocked by the sea water, and it was pitch black all around, but it didn't care at all. It was like an elf in the dark, slowly searching for the direction.

Inside the body of the giant, a small nuclear reactor is burning water vapor, using the energy of the water vapor to drive the propeller at the tail of the submarine to rotate slowly, allowing the giant to continue moving forward.

Passing through layers of black water, large fish occasionally swam by, but when they saw monsters more powerful than themselves, they immediately ran away.

They know one thing very well: this steel behemoth is not easy to mess with.

At this moment, there was silence inside Submarine No. 401.

Everyone was waiting silently at their posts.

Liu Bin stood beside Captain Gong Lang, looking a little more worried.

In comparison, Captain Gong Lang was calmer.

"Don't worry, the enemy is at least three miles away from us, we can't find them."

Gong Lang comforted Liu Bin in a low voice, and the calmness on his face also infected Liu Bin.

"I know, I just feel like my breathing is a little, suffocated."

Gong Lang smiled after hearing this.

"Actually, I admire you a lot. It's not easy for someone this big to last so many days in this submarine."

Liu Bin shook his head. "There's nothing to admire. It's just for the sake of my mission."

"Just like you, you need to drive a submarine to fight."

"And we make the best submarines."

"So, as a designer and technician, it is my responsibility to come here and observe with my own eyes."

Liu Bin's firmness impressed Gong Lang and also made the people in the submarine feel good about him.

This is also the reason why the two can quickly become friends because they have a common goal.

That is to make the navy strong again.

"By the way, I heard that you were very strict when building this submarine?"

Gong Lang distracted Liu Bin and at the same time attracted the attention of the soldiers, allowing those who had nothing to do to listen to the story behind it.

"Strict? That's not strict, that's very strict."

When Liu Bin talked about this, he became interested.

"Did you know that this submarine has a certain weight?"

Everyone around nodded.

"In order to control the weight so that it does not exceed the standard, we have to weigh it on the scale every time we go in, and then we weigh the incoming parts again and again, and then record them and make overall calculations."

"Just for this, we repeat the same actions day after day. Do you think we are strict?"

After Liu Bin finished speaking, Gong Lang nodded immediately.

"However, persistence pays off. During the inspection, the entire submarine No. 401 did not exceed the weight by even one gram."

"Now it's good. We finally have a qualified submarine."

Liu Bin was full of pride, and the soldiers were also proud when they heard it.

Because this is not only his honor, but also belongs to their entire laboratory and the comrades who have always been paying attention to and supporting them.

Especially the original model.

Even without that model, they can still make it, but the time will definitely be delayed.

Thinking of this, Liu Bin recalled the scene when he first got the model.

He still remembered that when the model was delivered to Jiangdao, a group of people surrounded it. He carefully unpacked it, and then there were exclamations of surprise.

Later he found out where this model came from.

I also learned from Mr. Huang that we still owed others a "model".

"Captain, the other party has left."

Suddenly, the sonar operator spoke, interrupting Liu Bin's thoughts.

After listening to the sonar operator's report, Gong Lang hurried over to check the sonar system.

"Are you sure you're leaving?"

"determine."

The sonar operator said with certainty, "This ship should be ours. Judging from its speed, it should be a cargo ship."

"Damn it, it would be great if I could fight."

Gong Lang slapped the sonar operator on the head and said, "Stop talking nonsense. If you can fight, you don't need to say it."

Then he said, "Be careful, there are many ships in this sea area, we can't be exposed yet."

The sonar operator didn't care and immediately smiled and said, "Understood."

After Gong Lang finished speaking, he waved his hand and everyone inside the submarine immediately relaxed.

Then Gong Lang came to his office area, spread out the map, and started working on it.

This ocean voyage not only requires us to become familiar with the hydrological conditions of ocean currents, but also to perform an important mission.

In a submarine, there is no other reference to time except the watch.

In this way, Liu Bin followed the No. 401 submarine and continued to move forward in the dark seabed.

In the end, I didn’t even know where I was.

All he remembered was that this was his tenth day on the submarine.

During the last two days, almost every hour, the sonar operator would report that a ship was passing overhead, and then the entire submarine would fall silent, and the sonar operator would record the frequency information of the ship.

Of course, during this period of time, they also encountered several submarines. Needless to say, in this sea far away from the mainland, the submarines they encountered would definitely not be theirs.

According to Gong Lang's guess, most of them are from the United States, and the rest are from the Alliance.

After all, in this vast and dark seabed, a submarine is just a larger whale, like a drop of water falling into the sea.

The main reason for encountering so many ships and submarines is that they are located right on the shipping routes.

Fortunately, due to our cautious stealth during these days, we were not exposed.

This can be considered as the completion of the set goal.

After the hour hand on the watch turned another circle, Liu Bin felt that the atmosphere in the submarine was a bit depressing.

Then he looked at Gong Lang who was a little anxious beside him. This was the first time he saw him like this.

Liu Bin didn't go forward to disturb them, he just needed to do his own thing.

Just like the crew of this ship, everyone has their own job to do.

When everyone completes their work, the entire submarine is completed.

"Captain, we have found the target, but there is a ship signal ten miles southeast of the target."

"Are you sure what ship it is?"

"No, the other party's signal is very weak. I'm not sure if it's civilian or something else."

Sonar operators are not gods. Moreover, they are under the sea while the other party is above the water. How can they possibly know?

“When will the other party arrive at the scene?”

"Based on the current speed, it should take about twenty to twenty-five minutes."

After hearing the sonar operator's answer, Gong Lang glanced at his watch and said solemnly, "We have enough time. We must complete the mission first."

"All units follow orders and enter combat status."

"Yes!"

"Torpedo number one and number two, ready."

"Yes, start preparing the number one and two torpedoes."

Liu Bin heard busy sounds everywhere, and the only place he could go at this moment was to Gong Lang's side.

"Captain, torpedo number one and number two are ready."

"Inject water!"

"Yes!"

Gong Lang calmly commanded step by step, then glanced at the information on the sonar map, then gritted his teeth and said, "Submerge."

"Yes!"

Soon, the submarine slowly rose.

"emission!"

"Yes!"

Boom boom~~
After two torpedoes were fired, Gong Lang immediately shouted, "Dive, full power, and dive to the northeast."

"Yes!"

Everyone shouted and did their own job.

However, Gong Lang was looking at his watch, with a calm yet somewhat nervous expression.

The entire submarine was silent, and everyone was waiting for the sonar operator's voice.

On the sea.

A cargo ship about a hundred meters long was floating on the sea.

If you look closely, you will find that the ship is in tatters, with many parts covered in rust, and there is no flag to indicate its identity, and no one is on the deck. This ship is exactly the target ship.

Just southeast of the target ship, a passenger ship was slowly approaching.

Passenger ship, on deck.

Osomatsu Hirofumi sat aside, with a scruffy beard, and looked nothing like the high-spirited man he was when he first participated in the Olympics.

Now he looks like a sloppy old man, sitting on a rubber tire watching the sunset, the ripples swaying as if mocking his ignorance.

Ugh!
With a sigh, he couldn't express the boredom in his heart. He could only look at his hands in loneliness, his heart filled with regret.

Back then, he led the golden generation, won the World Championships, dominated the league in the Olympics, and made a great name for himself.

Not only did he earn his men the reputation of 'Oriental Witch', he also became an internationally renowned coach.

But now?

One failure and you lose everything.

A false accusation destroyed all the honor he had for half his life.

"If I had known this, I should have retreated while the tide was still high."

A faint sadness rose in my heart, and looking up at the setting sun, I felt even more desolate.

"Coach, the wind is strong on the boat, let's go back."

Mieko Matsumoto came up to him and spoke tactfully.

After hearing this, Omatsu Hirofumi looked up at Mieko, but shook his head slightly.

"Mieko, do you know the situation in the country?"

Hearing this, Mieko bit her lip and shook her head without saying anything.

"Ugh!"

Oomatsu Hirofumi sighed again.

For some reason, they did not take the plane back home after the Mexico City Olympics. Instead, they were like a group of abandoned orphans, and no one cared about their life or death.

So if they want to return home, they can only take this kind of passenger ship.

More importantly, they dared not reveal their identities and could only travel separately. They hardly spoke to each other when they met on the boat on weekdays.

"Mieko, when you get back, come with me and leave Edo."

Osomatsu Hirofumi suddenly spoke, pulling his broken right leg while speaking, causing him to gasp in pain.

This leg is the best testimony.

Those crazy bastards who have no moral bottom line don't care about their past honors.

One can imagine what kind of situation the family members in China will face.

But he couldn't care less about that right now. As long as he could survive, he could live a comfortable life in the countryside with the savings he had earned over the years.

The only thing is that I can’t be with my family.

But this is not something unacceptable.

Thinking of this, Omatsu Hirofumi hugged Mieko tightly.

"Thank you, coach. I, I know."

Mieko agreed in a low voice, she was naturally aware of the consequences of agreeing.

It's just that she didn't have a choice.

Seeing this, Osomatsu Hirofumi breathed a sigh of relief.

Back then, he swept the world with the Oriental Witches, but now, he is just a cripple.

Just as Mieko was about to support Omatsu Hirofumi, two muffled thunders suddenly sounded.

Then I saw a huge ship in the distance blazing with fire.

"Attack, attack~~~"

Suddenly, someone shouted miserably, and then someone saw a large ship in the distance slowly sinking into the water.

As the flames died down, the sea became calm again.

"Teach, coach!"

Mieko's face was pale, as if she was frightened.

Osomatsu Hirofumi's eyes widened, and everything in front of him seemed like a dream.

Someone attacked the ship, so would they be the next target?

Boom~~
There was another violent explosion, and the waves it created made the passenger ship sway.

Mieko fell to the ground with a speechless look, and Omatsu Hirofumi, who was originally supporting her, fell to the side.

"Ah, save me~~"

puff

The sound was still in the air when the man had already fallen into the sea.

Ah! ~~
"Hurry up, someone fell into the water, hurry up, help."

Mieko lay on the deck, shouting loudly.

In just a moment, there was no trace of a human being on the sea.

"Hurry, someone come quickly~~~"

"Pretty!"

pop
The sound of high-fives continued to ring out, and the rules of the submarine were thrown out of the window at this moment.

"Captain Long, congratulations."

"Hahaha, Liu Ke, congratulations to you."

The two of them flattered each other, but each of them had a scale in his heart.

Liu Bin was happy that there was no problem with the submarine.

Gong Lang was happy because this submarine was capable of combat.

"Everyone, please be quiet. We have completed half of our mission this time. Next, we need to return home safely."

"Everyone knows what this means, so I hope that we will not relax and continue to work hard to complete the task as soon as possible."

"Are you confident?"

"Have!"

"Okay, pass on my order. The ships will head north and advance secretly."

When the passenger ship sent the news of what happened on the way back to the country, the ship attack quickly became known to everyone, and of course the news that the "devil" coach fell into the water and died also spread.

When the people looked at the sea area where the accident happened, their faces changed drastically.

That sea area is located on the sea route they use to communicate with the outside world. If something happens there, their lifeline will be greatly threatened.

Realizing the seriousness of the matter, they immediately dispatched aircraft and ships to the relevant waters to investigate the situation.

Afterwards, the aircraft in the United States base also searched again and again in the nearby waters, and the search range was expanded several times.

But in the end, nothing was gained.

However, according to the description of the passenger ship captain and sailors, this was definitely a torpedo attack.

And judging from the situation at the time, it was most likely from a submarine under the water.

After reaching this conclusion, people from Japan and the United States were wondering if the Alliance's submarines were causing trouble again.

You know, that sea area is to the east of the island country.

Who else but the United States could achieve this goal over such a long distance?
The alliance that received the news was also puzzled.

They didn't do this.

Just when everyone was puzzled, a piece of news released from the city of Sijiu surprised everyone.

At the same time, I was very worried.

That distance already shows that the other party has mastered the ability to cross the ocean.

They even speculated whether the other side was deploying a nuclear submarine.

After all, it's so far away, and it has to be stealthy and maintain combat effectiveness, which is something conventional submarines simply cannot do.

Unless it's a nuclear submarine.

Unfortunately, the other party only said one sentence and then remained silent.

Even the specific process has not been announced.

Faced with inquiries and inquiries from all sides, the other party simply ignored them.

The main point is what I said, believe it or not it is up to you.

But this is what made the Alliance and the United States firmly believe in their own guesses.

After all, the other party didn't deny it, right?
Both parties took a break at the same time, and the matter had to be dealt with coldly.

But the most uncomfortable thing is the days.

They never imagined that despite their day and night defenses, they didn't see the blue figure above their heads, but they never imagined that there was a demon hiding under the water.

The most terrifying thing is that the other party even conducted an "exercise" at their doorstep. The meaning is self-evident.

In an instant, fear hit their fragile hearts, making the crazy people do even crazier things.

At the same time, everyone was wondering how many secrets the other party was hiding.
