#663 - Chapter 34 Interception (Part 3)

They were enjoying themselves inside the submarine, perhaps because it had been a long time since they had such a carefree voyage. The submarine's speed was maxed out, and it occasionally performed difficult maneuvers to avoid obstacles on the seabed.

The truly unlucky one was Hot Rod, who had been forgotten. Not only did it have to endure the immense water pressure of the seabed, but it also kept banging against the outer shell with loud 'clangs'! The most troublesome thing was that Hot Rod's body hadn't been waterproofed, and the occasional flashes of electricity made its body tremble uncontrollably.

About ten hours later, Liu Yuan and Vivian were having lunch in the dining room. The loudspeaker sounded: "We are sorry to interrupt you, Mr. Liu Yuan, Miss Vivian. Radar has detected a warship intercepting us ahead. According to satellite comparison, it is the British Navy's Type 23 frigate, the HMS Grafton and HMS St Albans."

Liu Yuan frowned slightly and said to Vivian, "Honey, it looks like we're in a bit of trouble."

Vivian nervously held his hand: "Honey, will there be any danger?"

Liu Yuan took her hand: "It should be fine, but you have to stay in the captain's cabin, it's the safest place."

After settling Vivian down, Liu Yuan returned to the command room and reached out to touch the light screen. He saw two red dots on the channel ahead, which were the two Type 23 frigates of the British army. He wasn't worried about the British warships, but the satellites in the sky and the planes following behind were more troublesome.

Now it's 2018, and facing the capricious military technology, the North Sea, a shallow sea area, is almost without blind spots. If they really anger the British, they will use cruise missiles for saturation attacks, unless they release the spaceship, but that would expose their trump card.

The HMS St Albans was the first to arrive, blocking the submarine's path. The frigate's combat unit was fully activated, and it issued a stern warning to the Union: "This is the British Navy, issuing a serious warning to the Union. You must stop immediately and accept inspection, or we will launch an attack!"

Liu Yuan glanced at the hydrological data and said to Shen Hang, "Surface to 75 meters, change course to northeast 17 degrees, zigzag maneuver, prepare electromagnetic pulse bomb!"

Discovering that the other party completely ignored their warning and made a provocative tail-wagging gesture, the HMS St Albans frigate, seeing this situation, ordered: "Ikara missile ready, launch one and two!" (Ikara is an anti-submarine missile jointly developed by Australia and the United Kingdom.)

For such a high-speed target at close range, using torpedoes is not appropriate. Anti-submarine missiles are also launched from torpedo launchers, and their attack method is also very different. They ascend at a short distance from the target and carry out a top-down attack.

"Boom! Boom!" With two loud noises, Shen Hang easily avoided the anti-submarine missiles. The explosion did not have any impact on it, and it continued to accelerate towards the HMS St Albans.

The HMS St Albans was already on full alert, and the sailors were closely monitoring Shen Hang's movements through sonar. The frigate's close-in weapon system began to strafe the sea. They were not planning to attack the submarine, but to prevent the other party from launching missiles or torpedoes at close range.

The sailors on the deck also had other tasks, throwing depth charges into the sea. As Shen Hang approached, the HMS St Albans began to frantically throw depth charges. The sea around the frigate was blasted with water columns dozens of meters high.

Liu Yuan was very calm. He knew that these bombs were not a big threat to Shen Hang. The real trouble was the water pressure generated after the depth charges exploded, which would affect the submarine's traveling posture and speed.

Shen Hang passed directly under the HMS St Albans and sailed at full speed towards the northeast. The other frigate, HMS Grafton, also approached here and saw this earth-shattering scene. The captain did not hesitate and immediately issued an attack order. The HMS Grafton launched six torpedoes, sealing off Shen Hang's advance in a fan shape. It fired all eight anti-submarine missiles on the ship in one go.

"Activate the defense system!" With Liu Yuan's order, the defense systems of the submarine's bow and stern were activated, and dozens of small missiles shot out like a school of fish, leaping out of the sea in an instant, intercepting all the missiles and torpedoes.

"Captain, our missiles have been intercepted."

The HMS Grafton captain became ruthless: "If we don't have anti-submarine missiles, launch Harpoon missiles. We must not let them leave easily."

At this moment, a scene that surprised everyone occurred. A submarine with a silver-gray body broke out of the water like a dolphin. It leaped high out of the sea, its hull lines were smooth and beautiful. It's just that the lump clinging to the outer shell was a bit of an eyesore, eh! That's a robot.

After Shen Hang burst out of the sea, the bow and stern quickly changed into gun ports, releasing an electromagnetic pulse wave, instantly enveloping the two frigates. The powerful current burned out most of the electronic equipment on the frigates, and the HMS Grafton and HMS St Albans were directly crippled.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Hang submerged again and disappeared into the sea in a blink of an eye.

Liu Yuan came to the captain's cabin, and Vivian was hugging the toilet and vomiting. It seemed that the turbulence just now was too stimulating for her.

Liu Yuan helped her up and said, "According to Shen Hang's display, we are not far from our destination. Let's go, let's go to the cockpit together."

In fact, there are not many places to hide in the North Sea, which has an average depth of no more than 100 meters. The Skagerrak Trench is the only place where the depth can reach 800 meters.

The submarine's lights illuminated the surrounding scenery, and Liu Yuan and Vivian came to the observation cabin again. The light here was darker, and the marine life that appeared was more diverse.

"Beep beep beep~ Warning! Emergency avoidance!" Along with Shen Hang's voice, the submarine rolled to the left, and a torpedo passed by.

The water pressure caused by the torpedo explosion shook the submarine continuously. Liu Yuan quickly glanced at the light screen and frowned: "Is it the British Navy again? They are really persistent."

Shen Hang: "Two torpedoes! It's the other party's nuclear submarine!"

Vivian looked at him worriedly: "What do we do this time?"

Liu Yuan clenched his fists, "Shen Hang, release decoy jammers, and find out the enemy's torpedo launch source at the same time." Shen Hang quickly executed the order, and several decoys popped out, simulating the submarine's signal and heading in different directions.

Soon, Shen Hang reported back: "The enemy's location has been found. It is a Trafalgar-class attack nuclear submarine, quantity: 1!"

Liu Yuan's eyes sharpened: "In that case, let's take the initiative. Shen Hang, ram it directly!"
