Song Jinning felt the same way and could not help but wipe his face with the back of his hand to wipe away the tears that were quietly flowing.
Everyone felt sad and silently angry when they heard Gu Xiangwen's last words in this world.
This kind of feeling of burning inside and out, of being so angry that you are speechless, can only be felt by people of the same culture and ethnicity.
Gu Xiangwen's holographic virtual portrait has disappeared, and the chandelier in the submarine cabin has gradually dimmed.
The computer screen immediately went black.
But soon, the LCD light in the recessed light hole on the cabin roof came on again.
Everyone's attention was immediately attracted to the small black cylinder placed on the desk.
Is this the "music box" that Gu Xiangwen's holographic virtual portrait refers to
Judging from the size, the most important thing is that this is the only thing on the desk.
Huo Shaoheng's gaze was the first to retract, he lowered his head and lowered his eyes. He quickly gave instructions to the small robot, directing it to fly past the eight-leaf screen and saw the scene behind the screen.
Behind the screen is a bed.
Two people were lying side by side inside.
There was a man and a woman. The man was wearing the khaki windbreaker they had just seen. His thick hair was neatly combed, his eyes were closed, and his straight nose was particularly obvious.
The mandible is square, the corners of the lips are slightly pursed, and there is a faint smile on his face.
It was Gu Xiangwen.
Next to him was a fair-faced, gentle and beautiful young woman, who should be his wife, Gu Nianzhi's mother.
Huo Shaoheng only glanced at them, then stood up immediately and saluted the bodies of Gu Xiangwen and his wife on the screen with a very standard military salute.
Except for Song Jinning, the people in the monitoring room were all active military personnel, including those experts in the final assembly.
Like Huo Shaoheng, they all stood up and saluted the bodies of Gu Xiangwen and his wife on the computer screen.
Song Jinning bowed respectfully towards the computer screen, making a ninety-degree bow.
After three minutes of silence, Huo Shaoheng put down his hand, gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "Official salvage!"
Everyone immediately got into their positions, quickly adjusted the monitoring equipment to the best state, and got into intense work.
Zhao Liangze rushed to the deck outside the door and cooperated with the staff operating the robotic arm to retrieve his small robot first.
The long string sling is made of the toughest materials. Although it is thin, its strength and toughness are first-class.
It wasn't long before his little robot was back in his hands.
The robotic arm sealed the last gap, and its five steel fingers firmly grasped the submarine's hull. Just wait for the joystick to generate maximum horsepower before salvage can begin.
Sixteen hours later, it was already daylight outside.
The bright red sun jumped up from the sea level, spreading its rays of light.
Not far away, white gulls were flying on the deep blue sea, covered in gold and red, like butterflies flying up and down among the flowers.
The sunrise at sea is always so magnificent and gorgeous.
But at this moment, no one has the heart to appreciate such beautiful scenery.
In order to salvage the submarine as soon as possible, everyone worked hard.
With a face as deep as water, Huo Shaoheng used his laptop to connect to the Nandou Satellite Communication System, and tuned multiple satellites to monitor the sea area.
Only one satellite was used before, but it seems that it is not enough.
If they hadn't heard the reminder from Gu Xiangwen's last words, they wouldn't have known that Japan had a secret military base here!
Now that we even have the coordinates, of course we need to take a closer look.
…
In the next twenty-four hours, the entire fleet and scientific research ships were engaged in one thing, which was to salvage the cement submarine.
Because the submarine's weight was underestimated, it experienced various difficulties and dangers. When the submarine was loosened from the sea, the seawater violently turbulent and set off huge waves.
The scientific research ship was bumping in the wind and waves, and several experts vomited heartily, but no one wanted to stop.
"Hold still, turn 30 degrees to the left, the No. 1 steel spike is tightened."
"Speed up! Use the upward thrust of this wave to save some horsepower."
But as soon as the submarine rose a little, it was shaken by huge waves.
The mechanical joystick made a loud squeaking sound, and it sounded like it was about to disintegrate in the next second.
Fortunately, these operators have rich experience. They concentrated on strengthening, increasing horsepower, finding a balance point in the waves, and steadily pulling the submarine out of the water step by step!
They worked without sleep for two days and one night, and finally the cement submarine, which had been sunk at the bottom of the sea for seven years, was finally brought to light again!
The unpredictable weather in the Atlantic Ocean did not hinder it. Otherwise, if heavy rains and hurricanes washed away, their salvage work would have taken much more effort!
The moment the submarine, which was covered with seaweed, shellfish and sand and gravel, came out of the water, a rainbow really appeared in the distance between the sea and the sky.
A huge curtain was thrown up on the entire scientific research ship, blocking this area of the sea and blocking out the spying of other countries' satellites.
When the submarine went to sea, they clearly saw the huge scar on the outside of the submarine on the monitor.
It can be seen that the people inside the submarine took quick measures to seal the entire cabin. However, the exterior suffered such a major torpedo attack that the submarine could not operate normally.
Under normal circumstances, submarines that suffer such a blow will surface.
But Gu Xiangwen chose to die with his enemy.
…
The submarine was finally salvaged.
Its weight is really not something that ordinary boats can bear.
But Huo Shaoheng and the others were well prepared. This scientific research ship, which was larger than the largest foreign scientific research ship, now played its own role.
When the submarine was placed on the deck that had been prepared for the scientific research ship, the entire ship was forced to sink.
The waterline has dropped significantly.
But it does not affect the normal operation of the scientific research vessel.
Experts in the control room swarmed out and went to the deck to see the submarine that they had spent a lot of effort to salvage.
A few older experts even came over with white wine, poured it into a bowl, and sprinkled it around the submarine.
The leader of the expert team respectfully held up the white wine and said to the submarine: "Mr. Gu, if you excuse me today, we will take you home right now."
"Your daughter is very good and healthy. She will be very proud to have a father and mother like you."
They didn't know who Cereus was before, but then Gu Xiangwen's holographic virtual portrait said that his daughter was called "Gu Nianzhi", and many of them understood.
Gu Nianzhi is Huo Shaoheng's fiancée, and probably not many people in the country, let alone the military, don't know about it.
After all, Huo Shaoheng's grand proposal in front of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Red Square and the huge diamond ring had long spread across the Internet. Later, the TV stations even broadcast it over and over again. People who don't know it can be said to be very ignorant.
While everyone gathered around the cement submarine to pay homage and worship, Huo Shaoheng had been working intently in the radar room of the scientific research ship for ten hours.
His eyes were red, and the display screen of the active phased array radar in front of him was densely marked by him.
"All of them! Pull anchor and set sail!"
He asked Zhao Liangze to issue instructions to the entire fleet through the pager in the captain's room.
Not only the scientific research ship, but also the nuclear submarine they brought this time as their trump card, as well as the cruisers, destroyers, and anti-submarine frigates that followed and performed lookout and security functions all received the order.
This is a military order. Once the military order is issued, everyone must execute it immediately.
So the entire fleet quickly prepared to set sail and returned the way it had come.
The experts also quickly cleaned the salvaged cement submarine using high-pressure water jets.
Then the deck of the scientific research ship made a rumbling sound, and the deck on which Gu Xiangwen's cement submarine was placed broke away from the surrounding decks and slowly dropped, as if a huge "hole" appeared on the deck.
When the entire cement submarine dropped completely below the deck level, the deck above it slowly closed again, covering the entire "hole" like a lid.
It turns out that there is a huge compartment space below the deck, which is specially prepared for placing this submarine.
If the submarine is hidden in the hull of the scientific research ship, no matter how powerful the spy satellites are, it is impossible to shine through the deck covered with lead plates to illuminate the situation inside.
Zhao Liangze directed the "closing" operation on the outer deck.
After completely hiding the submarine, he signaled for people to remove the "curtain" on the scientific research ship.
When we are about to return, of course these "curtains" cannot be used. Otherwise, how can we sail the ship
After the "curtain" was removed, the deck was empty, as if the sinking submarine just now was just everyone's illusion.
Zhao Liangze was satisfied with the video recording of all the actions here, and then reported to Huo Shaoheng in the radar room.
"Report! The target outside has been cleared!"
Huo Shaoheng didn't even raise his head, only raised his hand, "Thank you for your hard work, now order the entire fleet to move forward at full speed. I will return three days earlier than originally planned."
After a pause, Huo Shaoheng said in a hoarse voice: "...inform Nianzhi and ask her to wait for us at the southern military port."
In fact, she was waiting to welcome her father and mother ashore.
Since Bai Shuang's death, Zhao Liangze thought that his emotions had become numb. This was the first time since then that he felt his heart twisting into a ball, and the pain was so painful that he could hardly breathe.
"...Yes, chief." Zhao Liangze accepted the order and asked, "Do I need to tell her in advance?"
"No need for now." Huo Shaoheng closed his eyes, "She... doesn't have to suffer for too long."
Their return journey, even if everything goes well, will take at least twelve days.
If I tell her now, she doesn't know what kind of suffering she will have to endure these twelve days.
Huo Shaoheng rejected the idea without hesitation.
Zhao Liangze also understood and hurriedly said: "I understand, I will inform her right away."
Zhao Liangze returned to his cabin and couldn't help but squat behind the door and wipe his tears for a while.
After he calmed down, he drank some water and called Gu Nianzhi.
On the phone, he pretended to be relaxed and said: "Nianzhi, my mission is completed. We will be back soon. Do you want to come to the military port to pick up Brother Ozawa? Of course, there is Mr. Huo... and Song Miss… "
Gu Nianzhi's voice on the phone was brisk and soft: "Brother Ozawa?! You can come back?! That's great! I'll pick you up at the military port! I'll go right away! When will you arrive? I have to pack my luggage in advance!"
