As a military weapon, the design of a submarine had to take into account the situation of being attacked and destroyed. Many of the important functions on it had to be completed manually.
The older the submarine, the more mechanical equipment that had to be manually operated.
“So, those modern technological creations are very unreliable…”
“The more complex the machinery, the more likely it is to malfunction. The more you rely on electronic equipment, the easier it is for you to become a slave of technology.”
Ivan sighed. “Fortunately, the things in our country have always been quite sturdy. We also attach great importance to the skills and quality of our people. Even if we are docking in space, we can rely on our own technology to complete it manually…”
Yu Tian smiled. “That’s right. You Old Russians are indeed fierce.”
Ivan rolled his eyes. “That’s true, but you still have to pay for the damage to my ship. “Although we don’t rely on these electronic equipment, it’s still much more convenient with these things. We still have to repair and replace them when we go back.”
“No problem. You can give me the bill anytime.”
The money was not a problem. If Yu Tian was happy, he could directly get a new submarine for Ivan as long as Ivan could find a supplier himself.
However, this was a matter for the future. The most important thing now was to return safely in this old submarine that had suffered heavy damage.
All the crew members were busy repairing the equipment, trying to repair everything that could be repaired.
The submarine needed to rely on the battery to power the submarine underwater. Under the influence of the electromagnetic pulse just now, the battery had burned down, and the submarine’s engine had stopped working. It could not move forward anymore.
So the first thing to do now was to restore the power and get the submarine moving again.
The submarine had spare batteries for energy. Fortunately, the spare batteries were not damaged.
After the crew worked with their flashlights for a while, the cabin lights were lit up again and the engine was started.
There was no problem with the oxygen supply in the submarine. The oxygen tank was enough to last for a few months.
However, due to the impact of the shock wave, the submarine had deviated from its original direction. It needed to re-navigate and correct its direction.
However, the inertial navigation system could no longer be repaired. This was a device that needed to work with electricity. It had long been burned alive by the huge electric current.
The submarine also had equipment such as gyroscopes and compasses, but these things needed to be coordinated with the positioning system to be able to determine the accurate course.
Ivan did not know how far it had deviated from its original course. It was impossible for him to just focus on one direction and run madly.
This place was, after all, an incomparably vast sea. Even if the direction was correct, the destination would still be very far away.
Ivan had a headache. He rubbed his messy hair with all his might, he sighed and said, “Correct the direction first. Head due east and run out of this sea area. At least run to a place where there is no nuclear radiation… Ava, go and find the nautical chart! ”
Although the sonar detection was dead, Ivan did not have to worry about reefs and the like in this deep sea. He could run as fast as he could without worry.
When he reached a safe place, he would consider the specific route.
Correcting the route required manual operation. There were not many electronic control devices left in the submarine. They could only rely on the muscles of the crew.
Fortunately, there was no shortage of manpower on the ship, and they were all strong and good workers.
Soon, the direction of the submarine was determined, and the submarine began to run at full speed.
In fact, a submarine traveling underwater could not reach its maximum speed, because the submarine could only use batteries as power, and diesel engines did not have enough oxygen to burn.
This difference was like an electric car and a motorcycle.
Not only could the storage battery not allow the submarine to reach its maximum speed, it could not provide much electricity.
So every time they ran for a distance, the submarine had to float up and start using the diesel engine to move forward while charging the storage battery.
Of course, a nuclear-powered submarine did not need to go through so much trouble.
After running for a distance, Ivan had no choice but to start floating up.
Fortunately, it was already late at night. Sailing at night was more suitable for the submarine to hide its tracks. At least after it surfaced, there was no need to worry about being easily discovered by aerial reconnaissance or satellites.
However, a nuclear explosion on Alcatraz Island would definitely attract the attention of various countries. Satellites and the like would also immediately focus their attention on the nearby waters.
Ivan did not dare to be too ostentatious in the nearby waters. If he could dive, he would definitely dive.
Modern technology already had the technology to control nuclear radiation and nuclear pollution. The big countries that had responsibilities would definitely dispatch professional teams to the vicinity of Alcatraz Island to deal with the nuclear pollution there.
According to the Eastern countries ‘mobilization and speed, this time would not exceed 24 hours, including the time to travel.
Ivan had to run again, but he did not dare to run on the surface of the sea. This kind of conflicted feeling made his balls ache.
If he had known that Yu Tian would detonate the nuclear facility, he definitely would not have come and gotten himself into this mess.
If he was discovered, he would become a street rat in the world in the future.
All the countries and organizations would demand an explanation from him.
He clearly had nothing to do with the nuclear explosion. He was just picking up a person. Who would have thought that he could cause such a big trouble.
The more Ivan thought about it, the more his balls hurt. Increase the money! He had to increase the money!
After floating and sinking for nearly a hundred nautical miles, Ivan finally heaved a sigh of relief.
“The nuclear radiation shouldn’t affect this place, right?”
The crew member behind him was also covered in cold sweat. “I don’t want to become a deformed freak. Things like nuclear radiation are simply killing people without a trace.”
“No matter how much money you earn, you still have to have a healthy body to
Squander. ”
“Even professional women will be discriminated against by deformed people.
General Caro and his tiger team also joined in the discussion.
“I’m more familiar with Demon Island. The nuclear power facility on the island is very high-tech, and there are very few nuclear materials. The area affected by the explosion shouldn’t be large enough. ”
“We could be affected even after running so far away. Isn’t this area large enough?”
“Of course not. If it was a normal nuclear bomb, we would have already died.” “This is really a terrible accident.”
“Fortunately, we already have the technology to deal with nuclear radiation and nuclear pollution. Otherwise, even if we are not exposed to radiation now, the pollution will sooner or later affect the whole world.”
“Increase the money. We have to increase the money. We will definitely be targeted by the intelligence agencies all over the world. ”
Ivan finally made his request righteously.
“The problem of money is just a small problem…”
Yu Tian also felt that the request of increasing the money was very reasonable..
