701 、 Fierce Battle at Sea
"If you are just here to scare us, then you'd better get out of here in that strange plane of yours." Nora Tyson's eyes were wide open, he raised his chin slightly and stared at Tang Yu with an intimidating gaze.
"I said, I don't want to come here and talk nonsense. "The current situation is that a monster with the size of a cruiser, undetectable by radar and infrared rays, is extremely strong, and even Tomahawk cruise missiles are unable to deal fatal damage to it. Moreover, it is moving very nimbly in the sea, and it is currently heading towards you. The reason why I came to find you is not to save you, but to make your sacrifice even more worthwhile, so that more people can be saved! "Tang Yu didn't cower, and he looked straight at Nora Tyson.
"So because of your words, I have to order my men to die?" Nora Tyson said coldly.
"It's up to you to judge the situation. The reason why I can stand here is because of the phone call from the President. The President and my companions are discussing how to deal with the next kaiju attack. Because we don't know much about this monster, "Tang Yu said tit for tat.
"You mean, there will be more of these monsters?" Nora Tyson's expression loosened a little. "In that case, I have to preserve these precious warships for the US Navy!"
"When this kaiju appears in large numbers, you will find that the sea no longer belongs to humans," Tang Yu said faintly.
Nora Tyson stared at Tang Yu for a full minute, then slowly said. "Tell me your plan."
"We can't let the kaiju enter the open sea! It must be blocked on the continental shelf! When it attacks, use a battleship as bait to attract its attack, then use more battleships and even aircraft carriers to attack it, restricting its movement. Finally, launch a nuclear bomb. "Tang Yu said decisively.
"Launch a nuclear bomb in the US?!" Nora Tyson's eyes flashed with a cold light.
"You have also launched a Tomahawk cruise missile. You have seen the result." Tang Yu sneered.
"This, um, kaiju, how fast is it in the sea?" Nora Tyson nodded and asked.
"If it swam at full speed, it should have only taken it a day to swim from the Mariana Trench across the Pacific Ocean to the West Coast of the United States," Tang Yu answered.
Nora Tyson paused for a moment, then loudly ordered, "Order all ships to disperse. Coast Guards, start chasing away civilian ships! All weapons ready to fire! Dispatch reconnaissance aircraft and E-2 Hawkeye early warning aircraft! After confirming the position of the kaiju, immediately open fire!! "
"Hey! You!!! " Hearing her order, Tang Yu's face suddenly became gloomy. "I said that nuclear bombs are the only way we can fight against the kaiju now. Do you want all the ships to disperse so that the kaiju can swim as they please?!"
Nora Tyson glanced at him and said, "I'm sorry. I can't let my subordinates die in vain because of your words."
"But the price is that you let thousands of people die! Once the kaiju returns to the ocean, you won't be able to track its movements! Furthermore, it will definitely attack the densely populated cities! Then who will be responsible for the people who die because of this!!!! "Tang Yu roared fiercely, clenching his fists, a murderous aura filled the air.
"Do you want to question my decision? Or do you want to challenge my authority alone? "Nora Tyson's eyes narrowed.
"Believe me, the reason why you and the people on this warship are still standing is definitely not because of your so-called authority, but because I need you to fight against the kaiju!" Tang Yu gritted his teeth and said. Under his rage, the equipment on the warship began to go haywire. The radar started moving randomly, the screen started displaying all kinds of garbled code, and even the instrument panel started emitting sparks!
Nora Tyson looked at Tang Yu, silently thought for a while, then issued another order. "Order all ships to face the sea, keep the engines running at the highest speed, and be ready to collide with the kaiju!"
Tang Yu sneered and said. "You want to take care of both sides? That's a coward's choice! "
Nora Tyson turned her head and no longer looked at him. Her face was pale, obviously angry to the extreme, but she still let Tang Yu stand beside her.
Tang Yu crossed his arms and leaned against the bulkhead. He secretly started using the 'Mechanical Field' to analyze and control the command ship bit by bit. Because the size of the warship is too large and there are too many equipment, he can only use the 'Mechanical Field' slowly.
Suddenly, the communications officer shouted. "The reconnaissance aircraft sent a report. The kaiju has entered the sea! The coordinates have been uploaded! "
"What about the radar?" Nora Tyson asked loudly.
"The radar didn't respond! It has been switched to multiple frequencies, it's invalid! "The radar officer immediately replied.
"All units, attention! Using the coordinates sent by the reconnaissance aircraft as the benchmark, abandon the radar guidance, and let the AWACS take the lead! All ships are free to fire! All ships are free to fire! "Nora Tyson grabbed the communication device and shouted into it.
As soon as her voice fell, the entire ocean boiled!
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!!!" The vertical missile launchers on the Ticonderoga-class cruisers and Ali-Burk class destroyers spewed large amounts of flames! Even the warships sank a little under the strong thrust! Dozens of missiles rose into the air, leaving long trails of flames behind them. From a distance, it looked like a forest made of smoke!!
At the same time, the F/A-18 Super Hornet fleet, which has been hovering in the air, suddenly dived down and launched their Sidewinder missiles!
Not only that, but the 127mm cannons on the destroyers and cruisers also kept firing!
After driving away the civilian ships, the coastal battleships and patrol boats of the Coast Guard also rushed back to join the battle! In fact, as soon as the kaiju appeared on the sea, these civilian ships obediently fled in all directions.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! " Countless explosions exploded around the kaiju, creating a huge water column tens of meters high! However, the attack didn't stop. The Tomahawk cruise missiles were launched non-stop. The F/A-18 fighter jets also launched all their missiles and cluster bombs in groups, then returned to the aircraft carrier to rest for a while before continuing their journey!
"Huala ~" Countless explosions set off huge waves, finally affecting the command ship, the 'Colorado', where Tang Yu and the others were located. This nearly 8000-ton warship was also tossed by the waves! Tang Yu looked at the sea outside the window. He knew that this wave of attacks didn't cause any fatal damage to the kaiju!
"Hawkeye call! Hawkeye call! The kaiju has disappeared! I repeat, the kaiju has disappeared!! "The E-2 Hawkeye early warning aircraft hovering in the sky suddenly reported loudly.
"Immediately order the carrier-based fighter squadron to hover over the target area and search visually!" Nora Tyson roared loudly.
However, before his voice fell, a huge wave suddenly appeared on the sea in front of them! Countless seawater rushed tens of meters into the air! Immediately afterward, a huge shadow roared and pounced over, its huge claws slamming on a Free-class coastal battleship!
"Rumble ~" This warship with a displacement of more than 2,000 tons and a length of more than 70 meters was directly smashed into the sea, making a deafening sound! Immediately afterward, a muffled explosion sounded from the sea. Except for some debris floating on the surface, nothing was left of the coastal battleship!
"All units, pay attention to the underwater targets! Active sonar is turned on! Order the Los Angeles-class nuclear attack submarines to immediately engage in battle! Prepare anti-submarine missiles! "Nora Tyson was still calm, constantly issuing orders.
After the kaiju swooped down and destroyed a coastal battleship, it dived back into the water. Under the turbulent water surface caused by the explosion, only a huge shadow could be seen rushing towards the 3rd fleet's formation.
