Chapter 1690: Find the lost torpedo


In the early days of World War II, the Americans did not pay much attention to torpedoes. The MK13, 14, and 15 torpedoes developed (one type, but launched from different vehicles) were all scams and caused a lot of harm. Submarine soldier.
However, these torpedoes are electric torpedoes and will not bubble up. The torpedo that hit the tanker this time can bubble up. Obviously, it is a heat-powered torpedo.
Is that still necessary? Of course the Germans did it!
In American analysis, this matter is too simple.
A considerable part of the oil exported by Mexico is exported to the United States. After all, the United States is now in a state of war and is very eager for oil. Now that Mexico’s tankers are bombed and they cannot export oil, the United States will be seriously threatened.
The Germans intend to interrupt the United States’ back road. Unfortunately, doing so will only make Mexico lose money. Mexico can only rely on the United States to survive. In this way, Mexico wholeheartedly joins its camp, and then pulls in South America. The United States There is definitely hope!
The Germans are so stupid, that Cyric finally did a stupid thing!
"Next, we should talk about your oil side. We in the United States do not want to see such an ecological disaster happen again. You can only stand with us and fight against Germany. We can send vessels to anti-submarine for your tanker. If you act alone again, it is likely that the tanker will continue to be sunk."
The U.S. ambassador continued to speak complacently. These words are not the case in the ears of the Mexican president.
This is simply showing off. If you are demonstrating and not following us, your oil tankers will not want to sail normally in the future! How do you say this like what the Americans did?
Valdes couldn't help but frowned. This matter is definitely not that simple. Is there only electric torpedo in the United States?
No, this matter must be checked carefully!
The Americans were still talking. Valdes and Camacho exchanged glances, and they both saw the worry in the other's eyes. If the Americans really did it, then this behavior is really unforgivable!
Just two years ago, Mexico’s nationalization of oil also led to hostility between Britain, the United States and Mexico. If the situation had not changed, perhaps the stinking American soldiers would have been killed. Now, the Americans are still stubborn Do you really think that it was the last US-Mexico war?
The American ambassador was sent away, and the two sat down.
"It is necessary to find out the truth of this matter." President Camacho said: "According to the captain's report, the first torpedo shot by the other party was a dud, right?"
Camacho spent his entire life as a military horse. He joined Carranza's army in 1915 as a lieutenant. He was quickly promoted step by step and finally promoted to general. He became Minister of the Army and Navy in 1932, and then Minister of Defense in 1937.
Therefore, Camacho is quite clear about these things about the army. Now, Camacho has keenly grasped the key. What the Americans say is secondary. The main thing is to find the torpedo. Once the torpedo is found, everything will be clear.
The Americans say that the Germans did it, so the Germans will also say that the Americans did it, but torpedoes will not be faked.
"Yes, I will leave and send someone to salvage in the nearby waters, and I must salvage the dud." Valdes also looked serious.
"This matter must be carried out in secret, and must not be known to the Americans." Camacho asked again.
Salvaging torpedoes is not easy.
When a torpedo navigates in the water, it sails at a certain depth and does not sink under the sea, but this is because the torpedo is moving.
When the torpedo is sailing in the water, the power plus buoyancy is exactly equal to the torpedo’s gravity, so that the torpedo will not sink, but if the torpedo does not hit the target within range, the torpedo’s power will be exhausted, and the gravity will be greater than the buoyancy, and the torpedo will Sink to the bottom of the sea.
Think about it. According to the ancient Archimedes principle, the weight of the torpedo must be greater than the gravity of the drained water. It is because it has power to maintain a straight line, which is similar to an airplane flying in the sky. Once it loses power, it must be Will fall.
Finding something that sinks into the sea is a problem.
All of this must be carefully inferred.
"Yes, it's in this sea area. I remember it very clearly. It was about a kilometer away in front of us." Sailor Roy sat on a small boat and instructed several technicians.
After being rescued, Roy couldn't sleep almost every night. When he closed his eyes, it was the seabirds and marine fish. Now, a few days have passed, and the area where the crude oil has spread has increased. This black sea area has become death place.
All of this ~EbookFREE.me~ is caused by that submarine. As long as you know who did it, you will never let him go!
Thinking of this, Roy raised his fist, he was very angry.
From here, to the front, where the tanker sank, sailing in a straight line, a few technicians carefully calculated on the ship, and fully considered the impact of ocean currents.
"Let's go to the opposite side, about two nautical miles or so underwater." The technician drew a circle on the chart with a pen. According to the power of the torpedo, it should have landed there.
The biggest advantage here is that it is close to the coast and the water depth is only 50 meters.
The biggest problem with diving is pressure. Every ten meters drop will increase one atmosphere. At a depth of 50 meters, it is equivalent to six times the pressure at sea level. In this way, divers must perform decompression diving.
But the depth is not very deep, and there is no need to wear heavy rubber diving suits.
Several divers carried two oxygen cylinders on their backs. At the same time, there were two additional high-pressure oxygen cylinders hanging from the waist and arms. They were wearing diving suits. After receiving the order, they all plopped and dived backwards. In the sea.
Their feet slapped against the sea, and at the same time, they began to breathe high-purity oxygen to perform simple underwater phased decompression.
After ten seconds, the decompression was completed, they continued to dive down, and soon reached the bottom.
Here, the sunlight penetrated the sea softly and turned light blue. All the underwater creatures were floating with the sea, and the divers began to search.
This is destined to be a long process. As long as you make a slight mistake, the final landing point of the torpedo may change a lot.
But for someone who is bubbling with a bunch of bubbles on his mouth, it's not. 8) For more wonderful novels, welcome to visit everyone's reading academy
