Great Power Industry: You're a private company building an aircraft carrier?

There were some empty bottles scattered on the ground at the entrance to the torpedo compartment, some of them broken. If they weren't cleaned up, they could easily cut someone, so it's likely that no one has ever come in here.

It now seems that these bottles weren't just for Russian sailors to drink when they had nothing else to do; they were also used to prevent others from entering and to conceal what was inside!

A long, rectangular object came into Qin Chuan's view.

This thing is seven or eight meters long, cylindrical in shape, with a rounded front, a control surface at the back, and a propeller. You can tell at a glance that it is a torpedo!

The Russian submarines have all been decommissioned, yet there are still torpedoes left inside? How chaotic must their management be!

Qin Chuan walked in and looked at the huge thing. The center of its belly had been hollowed out, and the cables inside could be seen.

It was clearly an electric torpedo, and the most expensive part, the silver-zinc battery, had been stolen and sold.

Torpedoes travel underwater, and their propulsion systems are also special. Electric torpedoes are the most common because they do not require oxygen. Initially, lead-acid batteries were used, but these were heavy and had low energy, so later they were replaced with silver-zinc batteries.

As the name suggests, one of the electrodes is made of silver. Common button batteries are silver-zinc batteries, which only require a thin sheet. The gap in front of you is equivalent to the battery pack of three electric bicycles, and the silver-zinc batteries inside are also very expensive.

The torpedo has several Russian letters written on its tail: 6apьep-65, which translates to SET-65 in English.

This was the main acoustic-automatic electric torpedo used by the Russians in the 1970s and 80s. After it was launched, the torpedo could find its target by listening to the sound. It was quite advanced!

Losing the battery is no big deal, we can replace it when we get back, but the other parts of this torpedo are extremely important, especially the guidance head!

Qin Chuan was overjoyed; he had truly struck gold!

At the same time, he was relieved; the electric torpedo was alright.

If it were a thermal torpedo, he would have to worry about whether it would explode.

The Kursk was destroyed by a hydrogen peroxide torpedo, and everyone on board died!

"Brother Chuan, what's this?"

"It's nothing, just junk, worthless," Qin Chuan said, glancing at Antonina who followed him in.

"Tanya, we'll stay here for the next few days."

Antonina looked at Qin Chuan, then at Li Jianshe: "The three of us together? Well, that's fine too. I can serve both of you at the same time."

"What are you thinking about?"

Qin Chuan said helplessly, "It's just a normal rest. Tania, you did a good job on the way. After you get back, go back to the travel agency first. I'll contact you again when I need you. I may need to go to Russia often in the future, so you can wait for my call anytime."

Actually, Antonina was really struggling with what to do. She had already learned quite a few of her secrets, and theoretically she should keep them with her. But what if they went out and spilled the beans?

However, Antonina is still unclear about Qin Chuan's true nature, his specific identity, and his relationships with various powerful figures.

If she kept him by her side, she would quickly find out Qin Chuan's background, after all, he was a former KGB agent!

"Mr. Qin, I'd like to be your personal secretary."

"Well, we'll have to wait. In the future, my company will set up a dedicated public relations department, and I'll ask you to be the head of that department, specifically responsible for cultivating various relationships."

"it is good!"

"By the way, there are some rules about using the toilet on this submarine. After we've rested enough, I'll show you how to use it."

Submarine crew members live underwater and have to solve all their problems, including eating, drinking, and relieving themselves. Going to the toilet is also very important. It's not as simple as just pressing a button to flush; you have to open a valve. If you open it wrong, seawater will rush in and the submarine will sink. This has actually happened in history.

The submarine was constantly sailing, spending most of its time underwater during the day and only surfacing at night to the depth of the snorkel. At this time, Remis would raise the periscope and use starlight navigation to determine its exact location and correct any navigational errors.

Heading southwest, passing through the Ryukyu Islands, we are about to enter the territorial waters of our motherland!

……

On the sea, a brand-new warship is cruising. Its hull has high bulwarks on both sides that are connected to the superstructure. There are six huge cylindrical launchers in front of the bridge. Anyone familiar with the ship will recognize these two features as the most advanced missile frigate in the Eastern Navy, the Type 053H2G.

Below the bow, the number 540 is clearly painted on it. This is the Navy's newest air defense frigate, which was commissioned just last year!

On the bridge, First Officer Wang Jinlong asked curiously, "Captain, we've been patrolling this area for three days now. This isn't a merchant shipping route, and there are no fishermen here. Why are we just wandering around here?"

Captain Zhang Yang asked with a serious expression, "This is a secret mission assigned by our superiors. Where are the sonar operators? Have they heard anything?"

"Report: All is normal underwater."

"Continue to monitor."

"Yes."

"There's a submarine underwater. Shall we lie in wait and wait for it to come to us?"

Wang Jinlong looked around curiously. It was just nightfall, and the sea shimmered with a serene glow under the moonlight.

Just then, the seawater next to them suddenly made a splashing sound.

A great white shark emerged from the water!

"Attention, switch to anti-submarine warfare immediately! Where are the shipborne helicopters? Take off immediately!" A moment later, Wang Jinlong reacted.

“What’s the big deal?” Zhang Yang said. “The submarine is the real threat. Now that it’s surfaced, let it make a few noises.”

"Shout a few times?" Wang Jinlong was still unable to recover from the shock. This submarine might have already caught up with them. It was very quiet. If they had launched a sneak attack, their warships would have sunk long ago!

The submarine's conning tower is very streamlined, and there is a projectile-like object at the stern.

If he's not mistaken, this should be the Type 671, the mainstay nuclear submarine of the Russians!

Seeing a head pop out on the opposite command tower, Zhang Yang shouted, "The younger generation surpasses the older!"

The person on the other side joined in, shouting, "The old guard dies on the beach! Hey buddy, wanna have some vinegar?"

"Of course, can you still be considered a true Westerner if you don't drink vinegar?"

What kind of code is this?

Wang Jinlong was still in shock when Zhang Yang said, "Alright, we're aligned. We'll go first, they'll follow. Let's take them back!"

On the other submarine, Li Jianshe was also completely bewildered: "Brother Chuan, is this what you mentioned when you called the Navy the other day?"

"correct."

If we don't make it clear beforehand, and the Russian submarine is brought back, then we'll be in big trouble.

If discovered, countless warships and aircraft will come and cause a ruckus. If not discovered, and the submarine is simply taken to the beach to be dismantled, the higher-ups will find out, causing even greater trouble, and the submarine might even face serious consequences.

So, we should ask them to provide backup!

"What if we fail to accomplish this?"

"Then none of us will be able to come back. The navy will wait here for a few days, and if they can't wait, they'll go back."

"……Oh."
