1774 Ask the British if they need help

Wei Yong thought he had heard it wrong.

Even a group of intern captains thought it was a daytime conversation. The old engineer who stayed on the warship all day was obviously too nervous and had a problem for a while.

“Power 80%!”

"Speed ​​38!"

The answer from the operation technician told everyone that this is true! This is a huge warship that can run to 38 quads!

"Aren't you afraid of the disintegration of the warship?" Wei Yong found that his throat had already dried up.

A giant ship of tens of thousands of tons is soaring on the sea at a speed of 38 knots, which is more than 70 kilometers. How much inertia does the tens of thousands of tons of giant ships produce at such a speed?

How much force does the overall warship structure have to bear?

At this speed, this old warship that has been in service for half a century can still withstand such a large inertia force? How much torque and reaction force does a huge propeller need to withstand?

"It's okay, we used a supercomputer to simulate it many times. As long as it didn't run for several hours in a row, it was not a problem." Liu Yijiu patted Wei Yong's shoulder and comforted him with a smile on his face.

Obviously, the major general was worried that at this speed, the warship would disintegrate and then they would fall into the sea.

How terrifying is it that tens of thousands of tons of steel monsters are soaring at a speed of 70 kilometers per hour on the sea?

People who have never experienced it will definitely not know it.

As a major general of the Republic's Navy, Wei Yong's psychological quality can be said to be absolutely strong, but under such circumstances, he felt his legs tremble.

Standing on the commander tower and looking ahead, I felt their movement speed and the warships moving at high speed split the sea surface, and the waves even splashed onto the deck! I could even feel the propeller spindle rotating wildly at the rear, which drove the huge warships to vibrate.

Wei Yong and a group of naval personnel felt that the warship seemed to be about to disintegrate at any time.

Liu Yijiu, Ai Guoxiu and others looked calm instead.

Such speed is the limit they can reach. For this moment, to be able to soar on the sea, more than 100,000 people have made more than ten years of hard work!

The sweat sheds here can even flood this huge warship.

"This is the power of our Chinese military industry!" Liu Yijiu stood in the command tower, watching the waves surging in front of him, and a sense of pride arose when he heard the sea breeze whizzing outside.

Others are also in a state of fanaticism.

Under such high-speed operation, no alarm sound was heard in the various monitoring systems inside the warship, and even the structure of the warship did not appear any abnormal noise.

China's fierce battleships made the British frigate, which had reached its limit speed, silent.

"Accelerate! Accelerate! exceed their speed and get a distance away!" The captain of the Duke-class frigate heard the report that the Chinese battleship was actually rushing on the sea at a speed of 38 knots, which was 2 knots higher than the limit speed they could reach!

How to avoid fear and despair?

Originally they relied on their speed, but now they found that the huge Chinese warship was much faster than them.

"Captain, the limit speed has reached. The pressure system alarms, the temperature system alarms... If you continue, the spiral will break!" Mosen forced himself to calm down, hoping that the captain could issue an order to slow down.

The warship system is too large and bulky, and it takes a relatively long time to issue commands to execute.

The warship systems are in an alarm state. If this continues, the warship will suffer irreversible damage and must return to the dock for overhaul before it can continue to serve.

Even if the boiler explodes, it is entirely possible that the entire warship will be completely scrapped.

"accelerate!"

The captain didn't care about this at all.

The fate above was to let him drag the Chinese battleship to rush at a huge speed. He knew better than anyone else.

Once the speed is slowed down, Chinese warships will catch up with them faster.

After all, it's been more than two quarters now.

"The pressure reaches critical!"

"The temperature reaches critical!"

The Duke-class frigate had overloaded operation in less than half an hour, and the boiler system had already reached the critical system with a set alarm value, and an explosion could occur at any time.

The battleship behind was getting closer and closer, and was also approaching at a high speed of 38 knots.

"Slow down!" The captain finally couldn't stand it anymore. If he continued, the boiler would really explode. This is the South China Sea. Once the boiler exploded, it would even cause serious damage to the entire power system.

Even if the boiler explodes and the diesel-electric system remains, when will it take to return to China?

"Boom!" When the captain just issued a slowdown order, the power compartment of the Duke-class frigate had long been shaken by the huge pressure caused by overload. At this moment, the boiler exploded violently.

"Woo! Woo! Woo!" A quick and dull sirens began to sound throughout the warship.

The explosion of the boiler caused the rotation speed of the large shaft, which was driven by steam, to be rotated at once.

At the same time, with the explosion of the boiler, the rolling smoke instantly began to spread from the power compartment to the surrounding compartment, and a shrill fire alarm began to sound.

The pipe damage that was waiting to be on the side to go forward at all times was killed or injured by the sudden explosion. The wailing sound began to sound in the thick smoke...

"The power compartment No. 1 exploded! Loss of power!"

"There was a fire in the power compartment!"

No one expected that such a situation would happen to their most advanced frigate. Once upon a time, the most advanced warship in the empire would have happened at this time...

"Order the two pipe damage areas near the power cabin to extinguish the fire and prevent the fire from spreading!" The captain took a deep breath and could only solve the current trouble first.

The warship had lost its power, and the rolling smoke had begun to emerge from the inside of the warship cabin toward the outside. The shrill alarm made the entire warship in a very depressing state...

"The opponent is slowing down...the speed is 32, 28, 25...they have lost power..." On the battleship, the radar soldiers reported the opponent's situation with surprise.

The British warship, which was originally rushing, suddenly began to slow down sharply!

Soon, they discovered the problem.

The other party's warship was driving at high speed, but it had lost its power!

"How is the various systems of our warship?" Liu Yijiu was a little nervous when he heard that the British warship had lost power and was now slowly gliding on the sea entirely based on the huge inertia generated during the high-speed navigation.

The other party's only has conventional power. Their battleship is a nuclear reactor, and there are two nuclear reactors to provide power. If there is a problem...

"Don't worry, all systems are normal, the reactor is in good condition, all kinds of data are normal, the pressure and temperature have not reached the critical value, after all, we only reached 80% of the power." Ai Guoxiu smiled.

The warships rushed at such high speed for more than half an hour without any condition, which shows that there was no problem with their design.

"Slow down, don't slow down again if there is any problem. Although we have confidence in the design and the entire manufacturing system, under the current circumstances, it's better to be on the safe side." Liu Yijiu did not dare to force the warship to continue to rush at the extreme speed.

As he said himself, it was not that he did not believe in the domestic manufacturing system and design, but that he was worried that the battleship built by the Americans would really disintegrate under continuous high-speed operation.

In modern warfare, there is no such high requirement for the speed of warships.

It emphasizes wars outside the line of sight, and starts firing missiles before both sides can see them. If you want to defend, you rely on the defensive weapon system on the warship, rather than relying on the flexible maneuverability of the warship to avoid them.

The power of missile battleship reactors began to drop, and the crazy-turning propellers also began to reduce their speed and gradually decrease.

"Are we going to help a group of British people? In case their warship exploded..." Wei Yong had completely reacted from his shock at this time.

The British warships were actually forced to lose power by their tens of thousands of tons of battleships. This situation would only occur if the boiler exploded, or the propeller that drove the spindle to rotate broke...

"Within our sea area, we have the responsibility to rescue warships from other countries. There is no problem if we encounter it!" Liu Yijiu's eyes also shined.

The British Type 23 frigate has many designs worth referring to.

Especially the external invisible design and damage tube survivability are worth learning from. If they can get their drag sonar, the effect will be even better.

Although domestic sonar has made great progress, compared with old naval powers like the UK, sonar is really unable to compare with them.

Liu Yijiu had to admit such a fact.

He doesn't have the idea of ​​working behind closed doors. As long as he can get it abroad, no matter whether it is useful or not, or whether it is useful or not, it is used as a reference. It is naturally no problem.

"It would be best if their warships exploded and then sank into our sea, so that ours would get a lot of good things..." Liu Yijiu thought so.

However, God did not satisfy his wish.

The Duke-class frigate did not continue to explode or sink. When they arrived, the smoke on the warship that had already been parked on the sea was much smaller.

"Take a flag and ask them if they need help! The warship leans over!" Liu Yijiu gave the order.

Even if the British don't let them help, he hopes to have the opportunity to go up and help.
