Yamaguchi Hideta was so angry that he slapped the table and cursed: "Baggaru! What a wise guy! They are going to steal our things!"
"Mr. Osaka Yamaguchi, what should we do?" The intelligence officer monitoring the satellite cloud images asked nervously. He specialized in monitoring that sea area, so of course he knew what was there.
It's a pity that Japan has mastered this secret for seven years, but they still can't fish it out from the bottom of the sea.
Seven years ago, their special high school carried out an epic hijacking and kidnapping operation, but in the end they underestimated the man's cunning and failed...
Yamaguchi Hideta obviously thought of his achievements seven years ago, and his face turned the color of pig liver with anger, "They are all those bastards from Kobe Steel! Our salvage ship had several accidents and could not be salvaged at all, just because they used Unqualified steel warship!"
His face was ferocious, "Last year he told me that a technical breakthrough was needed... I believe his grandma's bear!"
This year, the scandal of Kobe Steel tampering with steel factory data has sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. It was because the people in the special high school couldn't stand it anymore and launched an investigation. Their ten-year fraud was revealed to the world.
In front of the powerful intelligence agencies, they can no longer lie, and bowing will not work. The dilemma they face at this moment is not ordinary.
But these things are not within the scope of consideration of these elites in the special higher education courses.
If the warship materials produced by Kobe Steel were not substandard, they would not have been unable to salvage the submarine for seven years.
The intelligence officer on the opposite side waited for Yamaguchi Hideta to finish scolding Kobe Steel before asking softly: "Mr. Colonel, what do you want to do?"
It's too late to jump now, as the other party has already entered the waters of the Cape of Good Hope with great fanfare.
What's even more annoying is that it's high seas and they can't even send warships to directly confront it.
After Yamaguchi Hideta lost his temper, he felt much better. He frowned, and the plan came to his mind.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He suddenly waved to his intelligence personnel and said, "Convene a meeting immediately! Hurry!"
Five minutes later, the most elite group of five people in the Special High School sat in the most confidential conference room and held a full-day meeting.
"There is a Chinese proverb, the mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole follows. There is also a saying that when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. This time, we will be both the oriole and the fisherman!"
Yamaguchi Hideta set the purpose of this operation, and then waved his hand, "Our Maritime Self-Defense Force of Japan has a base near the Cape of Good Hope. You can mobilize it. However, it cannot be used in the name of the Maritime Self-Defense Force of Japan, understand?"
"Hiyi!"
The five-person team responded in unison with great momentum.
…
Huo Shaoheng and his fleet finally arrived at the Cape of Good Hope where the submarine sank on the night of the tenth day, and met Zhao Liangze who had been waiting there.
Zhao Liangze led a group of people in a speedboat to the vicinity of the scientific research ship "Seed" and signaled with Huo Shaoheng.
The identities of the two parties were confirmed only after the signals from the two parties matched.
The scientific research ship lowered the rope basket and hoisted Zhao Liangze and the others up.
"Master Huo!" As soon as Zhao Liangze arrived on the deck, he stood at attention and saluted Huo Shaoheng.
He was also very excited.
He hadn't seen anyone he knew for a long time, and he was almost isolated from the world.
Huo Shaoheng nodded, "How is the situation here?"
Zhao Liangze's radar system here is more sophisticated than the equipment on their ship.
He said: "No ships or aircraft have been found approaching this area of the sea, but some maritime signals have been detected recently. I am worried that ships will come soon."
Huo Shaoheng walked to the cabin and asked Zhao Liangze to take out the detection records of the past few days, input them into his computer, and check them carefully.
The peripheral security system was quickly deployed, and Huo Shaoheng summoned all the military equipment experts and said: "We have reached our destination. Time is urgent, and we cannot let everyone rest. From now on, we will form three teams, three shifts a day Come on, don’t stop working, we must salvage the small submarine in the shortest possible time!”
Technically speaking, there are four methods for salvaging submarines: cabin sealing and pumping salvage, floating tank salvage, foam plastic salvage and inflatable drainage salvage.
But in the face of this deep-sea submarine, these four methods are not suitable.
For example, sealing and pumping is used for damaged submarines. After sealing the breach, water is pumped out to make the submarine float.
But this small mini-submarine was sealed very tightly, and there was no sign of water entering at all.
Another example is inflatable drainage salvage, which involves injecting compressed air into a sunken submarine so that the water can drain out and the submarine can surface.
Also, because the midget submarine sank too deep for the frogmen to dive to that depth, neither method was applicable.
Other pontoon salvage and foam salvage methods take too long and are not suitable for their specific circumstances.
Therefore, considering the location and size of this submarine, experts from the General Assembly of the Chinese Empire's Military Department came up with a new method, which is to install a huge mechanical arm in the shape of a human hand on the scientific research vessel, fix it with a steel cable, and then Drive the scientific research ship directly above the submarine and lower the mechanical arm with an iron chain.
There are cameras and control systems on the robotic arms, and they can be manipulated and monitored through computer equipment on the ship.
In this way, there is no need for the frogman warriors to take risks, and there is no need to worry about any traps below.
But this method is easy to say, but very difficult to operate.
Because this operation requires very high precision, the material requirements for the robotic arm are also very high. If the quality of the steel is not up to standard, it will break and the salvage will fail.
And they don't know why the submarine sank to the bottom.
If it is caught by something, their salvage method will take a lot of effort.
I don’t know if the engine they bring has enough horsepower. These need to be constantly corrected during trials.
Huo Shaoheng's order was passed on, and the people on the ship were quickly divided into groups.
Huo Shaoheng, Song Jinning, and Zhao Liangze are considered the core personnel. They are distributed in three different time periods, so that they can assist and monitor the assembly experts who are salvaging in three shifts.
In this first salvage team, Huo Shaoheng took the lead.
He asked Song Jinning and Zhao Liangze to go to sleep first and wait eight hours to replace him.
Song Jinning was indeed a little tired from the bumpy journey on the sea.
She was not polite to Huo Shaoheng and went to sleep in her cabin first.
Zhao Liangze was not sleepy, and he was more familiar with this place, so he volunteered to wait for a few hours before going to bed.
Huo Shaoheng agreed, and he and he watched the assembly experts operate the robot arm in the monitoring room.
Dozens of computer screens, large and small, were lit up in the control room.
The largest screen is sixty inches long, and the effect is very clear.
Huo Shaoheng stood in front of the screen, watching the mechanical arm that looked like a human hand being slowly lowered into the deep sea by a thick iron chain.
This area of the sea is high seas and is usually inaccessible.
Although the submarine has been here for several years, it may have never moved. To the marine animals here, it is no different from a cluster of coral reefs.
Colorful corals stand in the water, red sea stars lie quietly on the rocks, and black stingrays fly past the camera like giant bats.
The blue-purple electric eel wraps around the mechanical arm, and the box jellyfish that sinks and floats are all famous little killers.
This sea area has an inexplicable chilling atmosphere.
Huo Shaoheng stared closely at the display screen and saw the mechanical arm stretching slightly in the seawater, causing the two-meter-long blue-purple electric eel to fall apart.
The robotic arm continued to sink, and thirty minutes later, it finally saw the sandy bottom of the sea.
The small mini-submarine appeared in front of them more clearly.
Huo Shaoheng frowned slightly and suddenly said: "Go to the right, and further to the right."
The assembly expert remotely controlled the robotic arm and slowly moved it to the right.
At this time, a row of fluorescent characters appeared above the mini-submarine.
"Cereus I".
An expert asked curiously: "Cereus I? Is this the name of this submarine?"
No matter how calm Huo Shaoheng was, his heart was beating uncontrollably.
This submarine is indeed related to Gu Xiangwen!
They didn't come in vain.
Cereus is Gu Nianzhi's English name.
