Chapter 1784: Sudden power outage


The cold wind was whizzing, and the weather in Greenland was quite cold. At the foot of the white mountains, the daily work in the air force base continued.
They didn't know that on the hillside behind them, there had been people observing them all the time, and now, these people were not only observing them, but also taking actual actions.
"The time is up, let's act." said a man wearing animal skins and looking like a lively Inuit. Under the hat, there was a white face.
"Okay." The people behind them said, and they started to work. They raised a long wooden stick. At the end of the stick, a dead seabird hung.
A few of them worked together to support the ten-meter-long wooden stick, and the seabird slowly moved forward and gradually leaned towards the power line.
Suddenly, sparks emerged from the power lines. The sparks were extremely brilliant and splashed everywhere. The dead seabird also twitched all over, quickly turning black and emitting black smoke.
The power line continued to sparkles, and suddenly, with a bang, a power line suddenly burned and fell.
success!
Several people holding the sticks quickly retracted the sticks. At this time, each of them was trembling. It was a voltage of several thousand volts!
Although the people who planned this incident vowed to ensure proper insulation measures and that they would not be in any danger, after all, they did it by themselves, and they were quite afraid that the current would be conducted down the sticks and burn them all, and now It seems, as expected.
The power line was broken, and it was completely simulated like a natural accident. A bird was tired and fell on the power line and was electrocuted. At the same time, the power line was also broken due to heat.
Yes, it is like that.
Inside the base.
The radar was still moving. Nowotny listened to the call in the radio and knew that the target machine had become four. Now, Nowotny had an ominous premonition.
Could it be a fishing operation?
The Americans deliberately set up traps and waited for their own planes to fly past, and a large group of fighters came out to greet them. This is also entirely possible. After all, there is already out of the radar detection range of the Americans. It is too simple for the Americans to lie in wait and attack.
However, even if the Americans want to attack or fight in groups, they will fail, right? Aside from other things, at least if one's fighter plane is found to be a trap, as long as it climbs up in one breath, it will be invincible when it reaches an altitude of fourteen thousand.
Carl has always been his own wingman, and he is quite experienced, and he will never love fighting.
Thinking of this, Nowotny would press the radio call switch and shout to the front, don't fall in love, because the situation is not good, then come back quickly, anyway, the opponent has been driven away, even if the task is completed.
Just when I was about to shout, I heard a pop. Then, the overhead light went out, the radio in front of me didn't light up, and the sounds of various machinery and equipment outside disappeared.
"What's the matter?" Nowotny opened the door, and the cold wind from outside came in, and he shouted.
"The power is out." A soldier shouted loudly: "Our entire base is out of power."
In fact, the general field bases are equipped with their own generators. However, because Greenland is relatively cold and consumes a lot of electricity, and it happens that the base has ready-made transmission lines connected to the outside world, which are arranged by the Americans. Of course, use the external line directly.
Generally, you can burn a fireplace in a cold place, but not here. The weather is freezing everywhere, and there is nowhere to cut wood. Therefore, heating is used for electricity, which consumes a lot of electricity.
Now, there was a sudden power outage.
"Start the backup generator immediately." Nowotny shouted.
Heating and electricity can be put aside, check the wiring, and it will take time to restore the power supply. Now, they need to start the backup generator immediately, at least turn on the radio, radar, and navigation equipment installed in the base.
At this moment, Novotny is already in his heart. Any accidental accident has a reason. If your fighter plane is far away from the base, and you may encounter a trap, the power is suddenly cut off. It's unusual.
When the power supply is restored, immediately issue instructions to return the two attacking fighters!
There must be a conspiracy in it.
Without Novotny's order, the two ground crews rushed to the side of the power car. They were well-trained.
This is a generator car with a modified Ford truck chassis. In the back compartment is a diesel engine produced by Mercedes-Benz to drive a 200-kilowatt generator, which is enough to meet emergency power needs.
The ground crew got on the generator car and turned the diesel engine start switch behind.
The start switch is divided into two positions. The first gear is preheating. In this cold weather, it cannot be started without preheating.
The glow plug began to heat the cylinder. After three minutes, the preheat indicator light turned off ~EbookFREE.me~ Then, the ground crew turned the start switch to the second gear.
"Hum, hum." The starter made a noise, but I couldn't hear the diesel engine start, nor could I see the black smoke from the exhaust pipe.
"Not good!" a ground crew shouted: "The diesel is frozen!"
It's freezing cold here, although they have used the lowest grade diesel, although they have wrapped all the oil lines, and although they conduct a routine start-up inspection every day, they still lose the chain at this critical time.
"Quick, heat up!" Ground Qin shouted.
Germany has accumulated a lot of experience in operations in cold regions. At the beginning, in Finland, Germany specially sent personnel to operate on the ground, so that once the war in the Soviet Union experienced too long, if it dragged on to the winter, it could continue to fight. Go down and be well prepared.
The Soviet Union did not use it, but it was available in Iceland and Greenland.
A ground crew took out the rag head, poured a little oil on it, lit it, and bake it along the pipeline.
The roasting engine is very particular. The roasting oil route is followed by the rapid roasting, and the oil pipe cannot be roasted because of overheating. The diesel filter and the fuel tank need to be roasted repeatedly and quickly.
After baking for three minutes, the ground crew said: "It's okay now, let's restart the ignition!"
Therefore, the ground crew who operated the start continued to turn the knob, hoping to hear the sound of the familiar high-pressure fuel pump spraying oil and to see the black smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe.
"Hum, hum." The starter is idling, but the engine still can't start?
At this time, the ground crew had to unscrew the lid of the fuel tank. When he violated the regulations and directly put the torch to illuminate, he saw that a big ice pile had formed inside!
The diesel in the fuel tank turned into ice cubes. This is bad!
