Hearing the cheers of the crowd behind him, Xu Jianguo couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a knowing smile.
At this time, Zhao Huanbin, who was waiting nearby, said, "Data recording team, start recording the Dolphin No. 1 parameter data. Signal processing team, collect hydrological data in a timely manner."
"Yes!" Everyone in the research institute responsible for the test responded in unison.
In the next half hour, Xu Jianguo continued to control the Dolphin No. 1 unmanned submarine to circle around the Qiongzhou ship, and each circle was getting farther and farther away from the mother ship, but closer and closer to the "big black fish" in the sea.
At this time, on the Parrot Country submarine, a blond middle-aged man holding a cup of coffee asked his sonar operator, "White, have you found anything? I want to know what the Longxia people are doing here."
"Report to the commander, no findings so far!" White said.
"Keep monitoring!"
"yes!"
At this time, another middle-aged man came over with a coffee cup and said, "Laurence, do you think the Longxia people have discovered us?"
"Oh, God, listen to what you are saying? With the strength of the Longxia Navy, how could they discover our existence! Martin, do you believe that even if I drive another 100 nautical miles forward, they will never discover us? If it weren't for the group of cowards in the headquarters who didn't allow me to do so, I would definitely lead you to continue moving forward bravely!" Lawrence said with disdain.
Martin thought about it, nodded and said, "Well, you are the captain, of course I am willing to believe you!"
"Report to the commander, we have a discovery!" At this time, the sonar soldier named White suddenly spoke.
When Lawrence and Martin heard this, they immediately put down their coffee cups and came over.
"What did you find?"
"The radar shows that an unidentified object is approaching us at an irregular trajectory eight nautical miles away!"
"Irregular motion? Fish or submarine?"
"Sir, none of that. The sonar signal indicates the unidentified object is two meters long, and no noise from propeller cavitation has been detected."
"You mean to say this could be a big fish?"
"Uh... yes sir, I do think so!"
"Whitey, are you kidding me? You're just a stinky fish, what are you getting so worked up about?"
"I'm sorry, sir, I just felt the need to speak to you!"
"Okay, just do your job and don't tell me about little things like this!"
"yes!"
When the Parrot People discovered the trace of Dolphin No. 1 but did not attract their attention, Dolphin No. 1 also discovered the other party.
At the same time, on the Qiongzhou ship, a red warning light suddenly flashed on the control panel of the unmanned submarine.
This immediately gave everyone, who were originally excited, a bad feeling, and they all looked at Xu Jianguo who was sitting there.
"Jianguo, is there a problem?" Wang Fengshan asked with a worried look on his face.
In order to make his acting more realistic, Xu Jianguo couldn't help but frown and said, "No, there's a thief in our house! Commander, notify everyone to prepare for battle. A submarine has been spotted in the southeast!"
"What?! Submarine! Jianguo, can you confirm this?" Wang Fengshan's face suddenly turned cold when he heard it, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his tone.
Xu Jianguo pointed to the two display screens nearby and said, "Look!"
Then everyone looked at the display screen, and sure enough, the outline of the submarine was clearly visible on the sonar image. It was like a huge black shadow lurking in the sea.
Immediately afterwards, a solemn and murderous atmosphere filled the entire bridge, causing the test engineers of the research institute to tremble all over.
Xu Jianguo's mouth corners curled up slightly. He wanted everyone to think that this was an unexpected discovery, so that they could better deal with the subsequent situation.
Seeing this, Wang Fengshan, the commander of the Qiongzhou Naval Base, frowned and immediately picked up the intercom on the control panel. He said in an extremely serious tone: "I am Wang Fengshan. I order the entire ship to enter level one combat readiness!"
Right after he finished speaking, the officers and soldiers on the three warships were stunned for a moment, and then immediately took action.
Radar soldiers, sonar soldiers, helmsmen, torpedo soldiers, etc. all quickly returned to their respective posts, waiting for their superiors to issue combat orders and attack targets.
Wang Fengshan also immediately ordered the captains and training staff of the two frigates to return immediately.
After everyone returned to their posts, Wang Fengshan immediately sent an urgent telegram to the Navy Headquarters to report the situation there.
In less than fifteen minutes, the Qiongzhou ship received a reply from the Navy Command. The telegram ordered Wang Fengshan to exercise the power to open fire independently, but he had to ensure that the unknown submarine had indeed entered my country's territorial waters. In addition, other ships in the Qiongzhou base had received orders and were rushing to the sea area where the incident occurred at full speed to provide support.
With the order from his superiors, Wang Fengshan felt relieved. After saying hello to Xu Jianguo, he took the captain, deputy captain and training staff to the combat command room.
And Xu Jianguo is also ready to start implementing his next plan.
He first issued an order to the space satellite to turn on the electromagnetic shielding. As the order was issued, the submarine of the Parrot Country instantly disappeared from the satellite map of its domestic naval headquarters.
At the same time, the alarm bells rang in the Parrot Country Navy Headquarters. A naval general walked quickly into the combat command room from outside and asked what happened.
When the general learned that an Aobolong-class submarine suddenly lost contact while performing a mission in the southern waters of Longxia Kingdom, he immediately had a bad premonition.
But at the same time, as a general of the Royal Navy of the Parrot Kingdom, he also has his own arrogance and prejudice. He does not believe that the Longxia Kingdom has the military strength to discover their country's submarine, but is more inclined to believe that the disappearance of the satellite signal was caused by a malfunction of the submarine itself.
"Keep calling until there is a response!" After the naval general said this, he immediately returned to his office, picked up the phone on the table and made a call.
At this time, in the southern waters of Longxia Country, the alarm indicator lights on the Parrot Country submarine were flashing non-stop. Captain Lawrence and deputy captain Martin were looking at everything in front of them with horror.
For the officers and soldiers on the Parrot Country submarine, this sudden change put them in a huge dilemma.
All kinds of electronic equipment in the submarine suddenly became disordered, the navigation system lost its signal, and the communication equipment was paralyzed.
They originally relied on GPS satellite signals for positioning and navigation, but now they are like ships in the dark that have lost their way without the guidance of a lighthouse.
From now on, the submarine will be in a state of loss of contact in a sense. Their contact with the outside world has been completely cut off, and they can only struggle alone in this seemingly familiar yet extremely unfamiliar sea area.
