Ballistic Silence of Special Years

"Huh? What are you doing here?"

Lao Fang, the head of the cooking squad, was very surprised to see Li Zheng and Hou Jun entering the kitchen.

"Help the cook." Li Zheng said, "Staying on the submarine with nothing to do, both of us are embarrassed."

Lao Fang chuckled and said, "I don't think you are embarrassed, but you are afraid that you will get sick from boredom, aren't you?"

Hou Jun said: "Old Fang, don't talk about it, you're really going to get sick from boredom."

Lao Fang said: "You two are like this within a week of going to sea, and it takes us at least 30 days to go out. You are members of the special forces, so your mental quality is so poor?"

Hou Jun laughed and said: "You can't say that, there must be an adaptation period, right? We are members of the special forces, but we are not supermen. We have to train for a few days in such an iron tank, and we have to sleep next door. The cabin almost killed me, you said that if I don’t find something to do these days, I’m going to go crazy.”

Lao Fang said: "In fact, we don't have much work to do here. If there are too many people crowded here, we can't do anything. When it comes to chopping vegetables, you are not good at it. I think so, you just stay at the door." , if I want any materials, you can go to the storage to help me get some, and when the meal is served later, you will be responsible for delivering the food."

The so-called food delivery is actually a plate of dishes and rice. Some submarines have restaurants, but they are all new models.

And this submarine is an old-fashioned model, so there is no dedicated restaurant. The officers eat in the conference room, and the soldiers directly sit on the floor in their accommodation cabins and eat.

But a submarine is a special piece of combat equipment after all. There must be personnel on duty at all times in each of the different cabins on the boat, such as sonar, torpedoes, and engine guards. The other soldiers on the boat sent it over, and when eating, they sat cross-legged on the ground to eat.

Lao Fang is a veteran on the boat, a third-rank non-commissioned officer. He has worked in this position on the boat for more than ten years.

During the meal on the first day, Lao Fang took the initiative to come up to Li Zheng and the others to say hello and introduced himself. He also told them to let them evaluate their craftsmanship. His meals were all well done.

In fact, the food of the submarine soldiers is quite good, and it is considered to be at the forefront of all arms.

Among the many arms of the navy, land, air, and air rocket forces, as well as the strategic support force, the navy’s meals are of high quality, but what many people don’t know is that the navy’s meals are also divided into four standards, and the meals of the submarine force belong to the fourth category of meals , and a level of naval aviation.

PLA's submarine food experience has been very rich. After years of improvement, from the initial provision of canned food to the combination of canned food and other fresh food, more than 120 kinds of normal temperature collective food and quick-frozen food have been developed. Collective food, fresh and frozen collective food.

Like the officers and soldiers of surface ships, the most precious things when going to sea are green leafy vegetables and fruits.

Due to the limited fresh water, the rice, vegetables, and fruits carried on the submarine have been pre-treated and can be directly put into the pot and eaten.

After going out to sea, people usually eat rice noodles, vegetables, and fruits first, and then can them in cans at the end. Because the shelf life of vegetables is short, ordinary vegetables can only be stored for 15 days in the low-temperature warehouse on the boat. Later, a method of filling nitrogen in sealed bags was developed. To keep vegetables fresh, but it can only be kept for 45 days.

Fortunately, this submarine will not travel too far. This trip to a certain sea area in the south is mainly for training, and the time is 45 days. Therefore, the soldiers on the boat can eat fresh vegetables throughout the whole process, which is considered a relatively happy thing.

Relying on the help of the cook, Li Zheng stayed in the boat for another two days.

Just after eating at noon this day, I received a notice from the boat, saying that it is about to arrive at the predetermined sea area, so all the members of the Jiaolong team should be ready. It is expected to enter the planned coordinates at [-] o'clock in the evening, where there will be an underwater infiltration assault. train.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

But there was a hint of excitement in the nervousness.

The moment Li Zheng was looking forward to finally arrived.

Tonight, I can verify whether I can overcome psychological barriers and pass the underwater subject test, and whether I have the amphibious combat capability.

As for the arrival time at night, this made the subject a lot more difficult.

The subject of underwater infiltration, Li Zheng, has received relevant training. To put it simply, it is a long-range infiltration subject for the special forces team. By deploying a submarine to the vicinity of the target, the team will be dropped from a few kilometers away from the coastline. On the bottom of the sea, after entering the water, the team will use micro underwater propulsion and positioning devices to reach the designated beach and land. After landing, they will carry out reconnaissance, raids, rescue and other operations according to the combat plan.

This subject is extremely difficult in underwater combat.

The difficulty mainly lies in two aspects-

One is to leave the cabin.There are two modes of getting out of the cabin in an underwater submarine, one is the submarine dry deck shelter (DDS).

This is a special delivery platform carried by a submarine and used to transport frogman vehicles, frogmen, small UUVs, etc. by boat.

Strictly speaking, DDS is not underwater mobile equipment for frogmen, because it has no power itself, but is carried on the deck of the submarine and carried by the submarine.

This kind of vehicle is divided into dry and wet modes. It is a high-tech product in the military field. At present, there are very few countries in the world that have this technology.

Another is to deliver the special operations team carried in the submarine from the submarine at a certain depth (usually no more than 50 meters), and the delivery method is to climb the pipe.

From the point of view of means, of course, the carrier cabin model of DDS is more advanced, because the carrier cabin can place such as MK-8 Mod.l underwater micro-propulsion, or load inflatable rubber boats and small frogman carriers .

Climbing out of the torpedo tube, the equipment that can be carried is relatively not as much as the carrier compartment. It is already very good to be able to carry weapons and small propellers, and the propeller cannot be too large, because the torpedo tube has the largest caliber It's less than one meter.

The fact that Jiaolong members conduct this kind of training is not that the PLA does not have similar vehicles, but that the special forces must conduct the most primitive combat training at any time.

For example, you can't give up the most primitive way of using the compass to travel in azimuth just because you have the Beidou, and you can't stop learning manual map positioning just because you have the coordinate positioning function. This is a truth.

The most primitive thing must sometimes be learned, it is always more reliable and stable than the means of combat obtained by relying on high-tech equipment.

The second difficulty of underwater secret penetration is that it is carried out according to the azimuth angle underwater.To put it bluntly, it is the same as traveling in an azimuth on land.

Although the positioning device can also be used underwater, each team member still has to learn how to use the compass to travel in azimuth underwater.

It is much more difficult to locate and travel underwater than on land. There are reference objects on land, and it is easy to lose your sense of direction when it is pitch black underwater. All you need is the compass on your wrist.

Same as the technique of traveling according to the azimuth angle on land, there must be more than two people in a group. One person is responsible for looking at the compass to determine the angle, and the other is responsible for calculating the underwater diving distance. When to correct the angle, two people need to cooperate with each other.

It is relatively comfortable to do this kind of training during the day, after all, sunlight can also bring a little visibility, especially in sea areas with relatively pure sea water.

It's a pity that infiltration is often at night, so underwater infiltration training at night is the training focus of the Jiaolong team.

Li Zheng is definitely a master at reading and using maps and traveling according to azimuth on the road, which has been verified in international competitions.

But when he was traveling in an azimuth underwater, he was a big girl getting on a sedan chair—for the first time.

Coupled with the psychological barrier of climbing the pipe, this made him the most stressed player in the entire team.

Hou Jun saw Li Zheng's nervousness, and comforted him: "I believe you can do it. When you leave the tube, I will follow you. If you can't, I will help you."

Climbing the pipe is to enter the torpedo tube in groups of two. In fact, what Hou Jun said is to put a certain amount of pressure on Li Zheng. He is behind him. If something happens, if Li Zheng can't overcome the psychological barrier, he will also complete it together. calf.

Of course Li Zheng understood Hou Jun's painstaking efforts.

"Ok!"

He nodded vigorously, making a promise to Hou Jun, and seemed to be making a promise to himself.

"I can definitely do it!"
