The two battlecruisers Hongwu and Kaihuang quickly sailed to New York, picked up all the supervisors participating in the submarine search, and then headed south to the location where the Evans sank, turning on active sonar under the watchful eyes of the supervisors.
, one heading south and one heading north, started bombarding the water with ultrasonic waves.
This high technology made the ministers from various countries stationed in the United States who were invited to testify opened their eyes. Obviously, if this thing can really find a sunken submarine from the water, then it means that it can also easily find a sunken submarine from the water.
Find a sailing submarine below. German submarines are becoming more and more rampant in the Atlantic Ocean. Such a device is of great significance, especially for Britain, which is plagued by wolves.
Of course, this thing is not something that can be seen clearly. It is impossible for Yang Feng to get the monitor out at this time. To put it bluntly, the sonar operator wears earphones to listen to whether there is a metal echo underwater, and based on the nature of the echo, determines where the other party is.
What kind of thing? As for what kind of echo corresponds to what kind of thing, whether it is active or stationary, whether it is a submarine or a school of fish, these things are top secret and only exist in the brain of the sonar operator. At most, outsiders can see that it is an adjustable
machine, these ministers soon became bored.
Fortunately, the search did not last too long. Just three hours later, the Hongwu, which was bombarding the north with active sonar, found a still metal echo. However, it was not yet certain whether it was a submarine or a sunken ship. This must be solved by divers.
.Because the target was forty meters underwater, the four divers went straight down with scuba straps on their backs, and after a short wait, they surfaced one after another.
"Your Excellency, Vice President, there is indeed a submarine underwater. There is no damage. It is obvious that it sank by opening the sea valve on its own." Commander Li He of the Americas Task Force smiled and said to US Vice President Wilson who came with him.
This news immediately caused the surrounding envoys to scream, which meant that the captain of the Caesar Augustus was correct. Of course, it would be too early to clear the Germans' suspicions at this time. Is this the case?
If a submarine did it, we have to bring it out of the water before talking about it.
Fortunately, this problem is very simple. It is just a small boat of several hundred tons located tens of meters underwater, and it is easy to salvage it. Several merchant ships and salvage equipment were quickly transferred from Charleston. Chinese Navy divers and the Hongwu
With the help of the battle patrol, it didn't take long to fish out the small submarine from the water. By this time, a large number of reporters and U.S. Navy officers and soldiers who had received the news had already arrived. Even the survivors of the Evans came. Everyone
They all looked at the submarine fished out from the water with their mouths open.
This is a brand new submarine. There is no damage on the body or even any attachments on the seabed. It must have sunk just a few days ago. The appearance is similar to the Holland type previously owned by the US military, but it is larger and has a displacement of at least three or four.
One hundred tons, with two torpedo launch tubes, one of which even has an unlaunched torpedo, the best Bofors original 533 heavy torpedo. But after removing the torpedo, the Chinese torpedo on the Hongwu
After the soldiers and the American torpedo soldiers removed the fuze, they found that the antimony and antimony contained inside was only one-third of the normal charge, and the rest was the oldest black poison. This kind of power was not even half of the normal charge, which can be explained
Why wasn't the Evans blown in half?
Obviously, the person who did this job prepared two for fear of missing a hit, but because he might feel guilty because he was murdering his own compatriots, he reduced part of the charge so that a few people would die less.
The second one was not used at all, and it was impossible for them to take the torpedo with them when they retreated. So they simply sank with the submarine.
The submarine was salvaged from the water, which basically cleared the German suspicions. The news caused an explosive sensation in the United States. The American people were completely outraged, and those newspapers that originally focused on the war quickly changed their tone and strongly demanded
The U.S. government will thoroughly investigate this matter and must catch and hang those behind the scenes, and then comfort the sailors who died.
The subsequent investigation was not difficult, because I was confident that no one would be able to fish the submarine out, and the crew left some things behind when they evacuated. Another more important point is that Holland himself has already gone to France, and he will not
may be involved in this matter, but this submarine was built based on Holland VI. All submarines used by the US military in the past were also built by this company. After the Paris Peace Conference, the US military was prohibited from owning submarines, and then Holland was
The French poached the company, and the Electric Boat Company was in a miserable state. Fortunately, the British later bought four experimental submarines from there to avoid bankruptcy. The ship in front of them is obviously the design that the British wanted, and all the construction drawings are in Electric Boat.
Shipping company, you are right to contact them.
The FBI then went to arrest Isaac Rice, but unfortunately he had committed suicide by the time he arrived. The investor who originally funded Holland's submarine development was the founder of General Electric Boat, the world's largest submarine manufacturing company in history.
Less than half an hour after learning that the submarine had been fished out of the water, the man took poison in his office. When the FBI found him, his body was hardened.
However, even though he died, his suspicion was basically proven. Then the FBI arrested several principals and engineers of Electric Boat Company. After interrogation, these people admitted that Electric Boat Company had indeed built such a ship before.
A submarine, but they didn’t know exactly who wanted it. Only the dead Rice himself knew.
The launch and sea trials of this submarine were conducted in secret. As for the crew, although they were engineers, they had never seen it. The only thing they knew was that the submarine had been in the dock until half a month ago.
After bringing these engineers to Charleston, they quickly confirmed that this was indeed the ship originally built by Electric Boat Company. However, the FBI could only find this much, and all clues were interrupted after Rice's death.
Of course, these are no longer important, at least to Yang Feng. What is important is that the good wishes of those conglomerates have failed again this time, and the clouds of war that were originally looming over the United States immediately disappeared.
"Let me just say, how could the German army attack the French warship for no reason? Although the Caribbean Alliance maintains economic sanctions against the United States, it is only for the United States to be more democratic and free. It does not have any hatred for the United States. Now the truth is revealed
. But this conspirator is indeed hateful. Although I don’t know what his purpose is, it is obvious that he wants to provoke a war between the United States and Germany. For this kind of self-interest, he will do whatever it takes, and even push millions of people into it.
The behavior of hell is simply outrageous and must be severely punished." Emperor Yang of Beijing said indignantly.
He also didn't expect that there was still a torpedo on the submarine. This was irrefutable evidence. Without this torpedo, perhaps this matter could still be entangled, but with this torpedo, the German suspicions were completely cleared.
, but it’s not surprising when you think about it. The hit rate of torpedoes is generally very poor, so you won’t feel at ease if you don’t prepare a spare one.
"Thank you for your help, Your Majesty. Without the Chinese Navy's sonar, we would never have been able to find the murderer." Conger said hurriedly. This time, he really thanked this guy. After all, Americans at this time are usually calm-minded.
None of them wanted to be involved in the war. They were all frightened by the bloodshed on the European battlefields. No one dared to imagine that the war had become so cruel. In just half a year, millions of people on both sides suffered casualties. No matter which battlefield,
It's a standard meat grinder. The American Civil War has been going on for so many years, and all the casualties on the battlefield combined cannot match a single battle in Europe. No one would like such a war except those lunatics.
"It's just a little effort. China and the United States are friendly neighbors. Of course I don't want to see you involved in the war. Alas, all lives are devastated and the war continues. We are all brothers in the world, but there are swords everywhere!" Yang Feng pretended to imitate Meiji.
Of course, Conger was not interested in paying attention to this guy's performance. In addition to thanking Yang Feng for China's help, he also wanted to test Yang Feng's tone and see how long he would prepare for the trade sanctions.
The goodwill expressed by Yang Feng gave the United States a little illusion. Speaking of which, Brian certainly understood the source of all the frightening experiences that the United States experienced during this period. In the final analysis, it was forced by this guy. Those capitalists have already arrived.
On the road to death. It is true that he cracked down on the monopoly consortium, but he hit the monopoly consortium too hard and directly killed it, causing the U.S. economic recession. It is also bad for the unemployed workers on the streets. They can't all open up wasteland and cultivate land, right?
"Your Majesty, can the issue in Alabama be resolved through negotiation? The U.S. government is willing to sit down with the Alabama separatists and conduct negotiations under the supervision of the Caribbean Alliance to see if they can find a solution that both parties can achieve.
Accept the solution, which is also the approach you have been advocating." Conger said tentatively.
"Ah, of course I personally welcome this question, but I cannot represent the Confederate government and the government of the Republic of Alabama in exile there. I can help you contact them. If they have such intention, I very much hope that you can
Sit down and have a good talk." Yang Feng said with a smile. Talk, talk slowly, talk well, talk for a year or two, anyway, he is the one who supports the gang in the Republic of Alabama now, and it is not enough for them to do anything.
In one sentence, they must be beaten to death. If the U.S. government agrees, then the state of Georgia, which has also been ready to take action for a long time, will definitely demand a divorce. At worst, it will happen again.
He is good at this. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novels are better and updated faster!
