Chapter 494 Stuck

"Torpedo room normal."

"Cabin three is normal."

…

"The power compartment is normal."

All the cabins reported, and Nirgeyev finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that all the cabins were intact. Especially the torpedo compartment in the front, which carried many torpedoes. Once the torpedoes in it were detonated by the collision just now, the consequences would be disastrous! And the power compartment in the back, which had two atomic reactors, would be a terrible threat to all the people on the boat if the atomic reactors were damaged and leaked.

"The sixteenth compressed gas cylinder has lost pressure." Just then, a report came.

Compressed gas cylinder depressurized? The submarine's surfacing and diving are both achieved by the ballast tank, and if you want to empty the water in the ballast tank, you need to use compressed gas cylinders. Now, it doesn't matter if one compressed gas cylinder loses pressure, because there are still a dozen compressed gas cylinders, enough for the submarine to surface, but this is a bad signal.

This means that our non-pressure hull has been damaged, right at the location of the sixteen compressed gas cylinders!

What to do? Continue to dive, or surface to a depth of 30 meters and send divers out to check? Or surface directly to the surface?

At this moment, the hull continued to move sideways, and a sound that surprised everyone was transmitted into the submarine. It was the sound of metal rubbing against metal!

"Full speed reverse!" Today is a terrible day for the Los Angeles-class submarine USS Omaha. The submarine's hull was damaged. In the first moment, the submarine soldiers inside slipped underneath and closed all the hatches, ensuring that the submarine did not sink. Only two people were slightly injured, which was considered quite lucky.

However, the submarine could not move forward or backward, it could only move sideways! Everyone felt that the submarine was being dragged sideways!

The power compartment was normal. Collison gave the order to reverse at full speed. A huge noise came from the tail, but the submarine still could not escape danger!

"We're stuck." Collison gritted his teeth and said, "Our hull is stuck under the Soviet submarine!"

There is only one explanation: our side was stuck by the enemy's submarine. If this continues, we will be like captured prisoners and can only follow the enemy!

What the hell is going on! This is such a shame! The US Navy's submarine was taken away by a Soviet submarine!

"Report, Captain Chris is seriously injured and must be sent to the mothership urgently!" At this moment, a soldier came running to report.

There were more than 130 people on the submarine, including a part-time medical soldier, but he could only do simple treatment. Captain Chris had just been stabbed by a steel rod during the collision. Faced with this situation, the medical soldier had no choice but to comfort him!

He can only be sent back to the aircraft carrier at the rear, where there is an operating room and Chris can undergo surgery. We can’t delay any longer as Chris is almost falling into a coma!

What should we do? Collison clenched his fists and said, "Send a request to the Soviet submarine, asking them to surface. We have a wounded soldier who can't hold on any longer!"

Asking the Soviets for help is definitely a shame for the US Navy, but now, what else can we do? Our submarines are caught by their submarines! However, will the Soviets agree? If it were us, we would not agree, because our anti-submarine forces are overhead!

No. K-146.

"Our momentum seems to have dropped." Nilgayev said, "What happened in the collision just now?"

Underwater, everything is determined by sound, and the eyes cannot see the outside world. Therefore, Nirgeyev did not know what had happened for the time being. He just felt that this collision was very puzzling.

"The sonar room reported that they heard the sound of the propeller of a Los Angeles-class submarine. The sound was very close, almost overlapping with that of our submarine, and the sound was always there," said Prichov.

Nilgaiev frowned. What did this mean?

"I think it might be our submarine that got stuck on the American submarine," Prichov said, gesturing with his hands: "The American Los Angeles hull got stuck on our rear, non-pressure hull."

"Oh?" Nilgayev was stunned. "So, we captured an American submarine? This joke is too funny, isn't it?"

This joke is not funny at all! In the history of submarine battles, there has never been such a situation!

"Report, the Americans sent us a clear code request through the underwater acoustic communication system." At this moment, a report put Nilgayev in a dilemma: "In the collision just now, a submariner on the American submarine was seriously injured and needed to be sent back to the mother ship for treatment, but their submarine was stuck with ours, and now they are requesting our submarine to surface."

It's really stuck together! Nilgayev frowned instantly. It would be very unwise to surface now, because the American aircraft carrier formation must be nearby! If we surface, wouldn't that mean we would be taken prisoner?

However, by blocking the American submarine, the American submarine had no countermeasures. If someone was really injured in their submarine, then morally speaking...

Morality, what morality can the United States and the Soviet Union have in the Cold War? However, both sides are submarine soldiers, so they naturally know the significance of this branch of the military. In many cases, choosing a submarine soldier means choosing to accompany death. The submarine soldiers who saved the Americans also did so based on this understanding of their peers.

"Found the sonar buoy, the depth is set at 150." At this time, the sonar soldier continued to report.

Sonar buoy, sure enough, the Americans have arrived! And now, after the collision, the shell of our side is damaged, and the silent performance has been broken. If the American anti-submarine forces are activated together, they can certainly find our side and sink our side, but the American Los Angeles class will definitely be buried with us! Because the two are now together.

"Reply to the Americans that the submarine needs to go to Bandar Abbas or Chakhbahar for repairs," Nirgeyev said. "Prepare to surface."

This is our request. I don't know if the port of Abbas has been controlled by us. If not, we will go to the port of Chabahar. In short, we cannot go to the place designated by the Americans for repair! After surfacing, if the Americans want to change their minds, don't blame us for being ruthless! Even if our submarines are on the surface of the sea, it does not mean that they have no power to fight back!
