Hideda Yamaguchi was so angry that he slammed the table and cursed, "You bastard! Wise my ass! They're going to rob us! "
"Mr. Yamaguchi, what should we do?" The intelligence officer who was monitoring the satellite cloud map asked nervously. He was responsible for monitoring that sea area, so of course he knew what was in that place.
Unfortunately, Japan had held onto this secret for seven years, but they were still unable to salvage that thing from the bottom of the sea.
Seven years ago, the Secret Service had carried out an epic hijacking and kidnapping operation, but in the end, they had underestimated that person's cunning and failed at the last step …
Hideda Yamaguchi obviously thought of the achievements from seven years ago. He was so angry that his face turned red. "It's all because of those bastards from Kobe Steel! Our salvage ships have had accidents several times, and we can't salvage them at all. It's because they used substandard steel to build warships! "
His face was ferocious. "Last year, they told me that they needed a breakthrough in technology … I didn't believe them!"
This year, the scandal of Kobe Steel tampering with steel production data had sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain. It was because the people from the Secret Service could no longer tolerate it and had taken action to investigate. Their ten-year fraud had been exposed to the world.
In front of the powerful intelligence agency, they could no longer fake it. Bowing was useless. The predicament they were facing at the moment was not an ordinary one.
However, these things were not within the consideration of the elites of the Secret Service.
If it wasn't for the fact that the materials for the warships produced by Kobe Steel were substandard, they wouldn't have been unable to salvage the submarine for seven years.
The intelligence officer on the other side waited for Hideda Yamaguchi to finish scolding Kobe Steel before asking softly, "Mr. Yamaguchi, what do you want to do?"
It was too late to jump in now. The other party had already sailed into the Cape of Good Hope with great fanfare.
What was even more infuriating was that it was the high seas. They couldn't even send warships to fight directly.
After Hideda Yamaguchi vented his anger, he felt much better. He frowned and came up with a plan.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He suddenly waved at his intelligence officer and said, "Gather everyone for a meeting immediately! Hurry! "
Five minutes later, the most elite five-man team of the Secret Service sat in the most confidential conference room and held a meeting for the entire day.
"There's a saying in Huaxia. the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. There's another saying, when the sandpiper and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. This time, we want to be the oriole and the fisherman at the same time! "
Hideda Yamaguchi set the purpose of this operation and then waved his hand. "Our Great Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force has a base near the Cape of Good Hope. Feel free to deploy them. However, you can't use the name of the Great Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force, understand? "
"Hey!"
The group of five answered in unison, their voices loud and clear.
…
On the tenth night, Huo Shaoheng finally arrived at the area where the submarine had sunk at the Cape of Good Hope and met up with Zhao Liangze, who had been waiting there for a long time.
Zhao Liangze brought a group of people and took a speedboat to the research ship, "Seed," to signal Huo Shaoheng.
Only when the signals from both sides matched did they confirm their identities.
A rope basket was lowered from the research ship and Zhao Liangze and the others were hoisted up.
"Mr. Huo!" Zhao Liangze saluted as soon as he reached the deck.
He was also very excited.
He hadn't seen anyone familiar for a long time. He was almost cut off from the world.
Huo Shaoheng nodded. "How's the situation here?"
Zhao Liangze's radar system was much more sophisticated than the equipment on their ship.
He said, "We haven't found any ships or planes approaching this area for the time being, but we've detected some signals at sea recently. I'm worried that a ship will be coming soon."
Huo Shaoheng walked into the cabin and asked Zhao Liangze to take out the detection records of the past few days. He entered them into his computer and looked at them carefully.
Soon, the perimeter security system was deployed. Huo Shaoheng gathered all the military equipment experts and said, "We've reached our destination. Time is of the essence, so we can't let everyone rest. From now on, we'll form three teams. We'll work in three shifts every day without stopping. We must salvage that small submarine as soon as possible! "
Technically, there were four ways to salvage a submarine: sealing the cabin and pumping water, floating box, foam plastic, and inflatable drainage.
However, none of the four methods were suitable for the deep-sea submarine this time.
For example, sealing the cabin and pumping water was for a damaged submarine. After sealing the breach, the water would be pumped to float the submarine.
However, this small submarine was very tightly sealed, and there was no sign of water entering it at all.
Another example was inflatable drainage, which was to inject compressed air into the sunken submarine to allow the water to be discharged, so that the submarine could float to the surface.
Similarly, because the small submarine had sunk too deep, the frogmen couldn't dive to that depth, so neither method was suitable.
In addition, the floating box and foam plastic salvage took too long and weren't suitable for their specific situation.
Therefore, considering the location and size of the submarine, the experts from the Huaxia Imperial Military General Assembly Department came up with a new idea. They installed a huge robotic arm in the shape of a human hand on the research ship and fixed it with steel cables. Then, they drove the research ship directly above the submarine and lowered the robotic arm with iron chains.
The robotic arm had cameras and control systems on it, so they could operate and monitor it through computer equipment on the ship.
This way, they didn't have to let the frogmen warriors take risks, nor did they have to worry about any traps below.
However, this method was easy to say, but it was very difficult to operate.
This was because this operation required very high precision, and the material requirements for the robotic arm were also very high. If the quality of the steel wasn't up to standard, it would break and the salvage would fail.
Moreover, they didn't know why the submarine had sunk to the bottom.
If it had been caught by something, it would take a lot of effort for them to salvage it.
They didn't know if the engine they had brought had enough horsepower. These were all things that needed to be constantly corrected during trials.
Huo Shaoheng's orders were passed down, and the people on the ship were quickly divided into groups.
Huo Shaoheng, Song Jinning, and Zhao Liangze were considered the core personnel. They were divided into three different time periods, so that they could assist and monitor the three shifts of the general assembly experts.
Huo Shaoheng took the lead in the first shift.
He asked Song Jinning and Zhao Liangze to sleep first and would replace him in eight hours.
Song Jinning was indeed a little tired from the bumpy journey at sea.
She didn't stand on ceremony with Huo Shaoheng and went to sleep in her cabin.
Zhao Liangze wasn't sleepy, and he was more familiar with this place, so he volunteered to wait a few hours before going to sleep.
Huo Shaoheng agreed and watched the general assembly experts operate the robotic arm in the monitoring room with him.
There were dozens of large and small computer screens lit up in the monitoring room.
The largest screen was 60 inches, and the effect was very clear.
Huo Shaoheng stood in front of the screen and watched as the robotic arm that looked like a human hand was slowly lowered into the deep sea by a thick iron chain.
This area of the sea was high seas, and there were usually few people here.
Although the submarine had been here for several years, it had probably never moved. To the marine animals here, it was no different from a cluster of coral reefs.
Colorful corals stood upright in the water, a large red starfish lay quietly on the reef, and a black stingray swept past the camera like a giant bat.
The blue-purple electric eel wrapped around the robotic arm, and the box-shaped jellyfish that floated and sank were all famous killing experts.
It gave this area of the sea an inexplicable murderous aura.
Huo Shaoheng stared intently at the screen and saw the robotic arm stretch out slightly in the sea, causing the two-meter-long blue-purple electric eel to be torn apart.
The robotic arm continued to descend. Thirty minutes later, they finally saw the sand at the bottom of the sea.
The small mini submarine was even more clearly displayed in front of them.
Huo Shaoheng frowned slightly and suddenly said, "To the right, a little more to the right."
The general assembly expert remotely controlled the robotic arm and slowly moved it to the right.
At that moment, a row of glowing words appeared above the mini submarine.
“Cereus
I”。
An expert asked curiously, "Cereus.
I？ Is that the name of this submarine? "
No matter how calm Huo Shaoheng was, his heart couldn't help but beat violently.
This submarine was indeed related to Gu Xiangwen!
They hadn't come in vain.
Cereus was Gu Nianzhi's English name.
