#661 - Chapter 32 Interception (I)
It should be noted that Great Britain is one of the five permanent members of the United Nations, and its military strength should not be underestimated.
At this moment, right in the sea area near its own doorstep, there is a submarine of unknown origin, swaggering along the coastline, which is undoubtedly a blatant provocation to the Royal Navy, which has a long-standing reputation.
What's more, this submarine emerged near the Portsmouth Naval Base, where the naval headquarters is located. This behavior is tantamount to directly riding on the Royal Navy's head and acting wildly.
Faced with such arrogant behavior, the British military quickly responded. They decisively mobilized more than a dozen warships to intercept it. Some of the warships even rushed from London to reinforce. Not only that, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, the Royal Air Force did not hesitate to send a squadron of three Typhoon fighter jets to participate in this operation.
Hearing the alarm, Liu Yuan frowned tightly. He didn't dare to be careless and went to the radar screen to check carefully. After a while, he turned his head and said, "Shenhang, immediately open the permissions for me. I need to establish a connection with the satellite. We must find a way to get rid of these annoying guys!"
The permission was quickly granted, and the satellite in space immediately transmitted the surrounding situation. Looking at the dense red dots on the screen.
"What are these?" Vivian curiously reached out and clicked one, and a split screen popped up, which was actually a real-time image, with detailed annotations next to it.
Liu Yuan: "They are Air Force planes, and those are Navy ships. It seems that the military has regarded us as enemies."
"Ah! What should we do?" Vivian covered her small mouth in surprise.
The first to arrive were three Typhoons. They had adjusted their flight posture and were about to launch an attack.
Liu Yuan's eyes sharpened, and he shouted, "Shenhang! Prepare for evasive maneuvers, turn on the jamming system! Maximize the energy shield!" Shenhang quickly operated, and an invisible energy wave appeared around the submarine.
The three Typhoon fighter jets roared in, and missiles shot towards the submarine. However, just as the missiles approached the submarine, they seemed to be attracted by a magnetic field, and they deviated from the target,炸得海面上翻起阵阵浪花.
"Dear, don't be afraid! We are safe." Liu Yuan put his arm around Vivian and comforted her softly.
But the British army did not give up. Subsequent warships surrounded them, and various detection devices continued to scan the submarine. The three warships closest to the submarine were River-class patrol ships blocking the strait.
They are the HMS Tyne, hull number P281; HMS Severn, hull number P282; HMS Mersey, hull number P283. Seeing the air force fighters take the lead, they also launched an attack without hesitation.
It's just that the weapons equipped on the patrol ship are really touching, with only one 30mm cannon and four Gatling machine guns. But the most unlucky one was Hot Rod. At this time, it was outside the submarine and became the first target of the opponent's concentrated fire.
"Damn it, you guys! Why are you attacking me? I didn't do anything!" Hot Rod looked hopeless, but it couldn't sit still and wait for death. Hot Rod quickly took out its weapon and shot out a few energy balls!
The energy balls landed near the patrol ship, causing the magnetic field in that area to be disordered. A magical scene happened. The bullets fired from the muzzle actually began to bounce around irregularly. The HMS Tyne and HMS Mersey uncontrollably crashed into the side of the HMS Severn, and the HMS Severn was almost overturned. Hot Rod had lived with humans for a long time, and it was still merciful when it took action, and did not use lethal weapons.
The alarm sounded again, and three high-speed targets were displayed on the light screen, which were Harpoon cruise missiles.
Liu Yuan directly ordered: "Release pulse bombs, fan-shaped attack!"
Two missiles flew out, blooming in the air at extremely high speed, and a strong electromagnetic wave flashed. The three Harpoon missiles suddenly stalled, and then plunged into the sea like stones.
"Plop~ Plop~ Plop~ Plop~ Plop~ Plop~!" Six consecutive splashes of water came, and Hot Rod scratched its head in confusion: "Huh? Why are there six sounds?"
In the cockpit, Liu Yuan turned Vivian's face away. In fact, he had just seen that the three Typhoon fighter jets had unfortunately flown into the range of the electromagnetic waves. As a result, the plane and those missiles crashed into the sea together. Because the circuit was burned, the plane's ejection pod failed to open. It is estimated that the pilots inside were in danger.
Liu Yuan: "Shenhang, take this opportunity and leave quickly!"
The submarine went straight through the chaotic patrol ships, completely ignoring the British sailors jumping up and down on them.
The British army was furious when they saw this. They decided to use more powerful weapons. Three Type 45 missile destroyers chasing from behind were speeding up. The MK-45 Mod 4 naval guns on the ships turned their muzzles toward the submarine.
Hot Rod, who had participated in World War II, knew the power of naval guns and knew that once hit, it would be difficult to resist even with an energy shield. It reached out and patted the submarine's hull: "Shenhang, the destroyers are here, dive quickly!"
Shenhang quickly calculated and replied: "Emergency dive, depth 80 meters. Enemy ship shelling, shield strengthening power, prepare for impact!"
"Bang bang bang~" The destroyers really fired. The Type 45 destroyer is a new generation of air defense missile destroyer under the British Royal Navy. It is equipped with an r-50 vertical launch system (loaded with 16 Aster 15 air defense missiles and 32 Aster 30 air defense missiles) and 2 sets of quadruple MM-141 Harpoon anti-ship missile launchers (later added), but it is also equipped with a 5-inch (127mm) 62-caliber naval gun with a firing rate of up to twenty rounds per minute.
Looking at the large pieces of 127mm high-explosive armor-piercing projectiles flying overhead, Hot Rod helplessly raised its hands and transformed into a pulse cannon: "I'll take care of them!" After saying that, it shot out streams of light, firing a dense web of fire. Intercepting shells is not easy. Sparks flew everywhere, and it took a lot of effort to detonate the incoming shells.
But the British army did not give up. A Lynx HMA 8 helicopter was also assigned to the destroyer. They sent special forces by helicopter, intending to forcibly board the boat.
Hot Rod patted the command tower: "Hurry up, one more time, I'm going to die of exhaustion." Fortunately, Shenhang didn't make it wait long. The submarine dived into the sea at an angle. Hot Rod waved to the helicopter in the sky, and then was submerged by the sea.
The helicopter flew along the sea. The helicopter has anti-submarine capabilities, but it requires corresponding equipment and weapons. So they can only perform laser guidance, and the destroyers behind released two MK2 torpedoes.
But Shenhang's speed is very fast, and it soon exceeded the range of the torpedoes. The torpedoes that lost their target soon exploded on their own.
