Chapter 48 In the Name of National Security
Gu Zheng seemed to have opened a window for the prince and Eva.
Strengthen your wallet in the name of national security.
In Gu Zheng's opinion, this was originally just a joke, but before the joke was revealed, Eva was completely confirmed.
They take risks and bleed and sacrifice. In the end, they may be their own people slapping themselves, which feels like they are being sold and keeping helping others with money.
In the National Security Committee, no one is good at it. Although national security is crucial, the most taboo thing in this industry is internal betrayal. This will make people despair and collapse. On the agent front, you can summon the wind and rain and dominate the world. All this comes from the intelligence support and cooperation behind you. But in front of your comrades, you are a shy girl lying on the bed, naked, and you have no ability to resist at all.
The prince used autonomous driving and it took about an hour to reach the location of the sinking tank.
The three of them hid in the cabin and stared at each other.
Gu Zheng looked at the greedy eyes of the two, and he didn't understand it very much. The prince looked like a coward, and he kept talking about "national security" and "national interests", but he drooled and stated that he could be responsible for finding a buyer. Eva had a baby face, and her body had not grown yet. She was petite, but her style was fierce and decisive. When she heard about selling tanks, she jumped taller than anyone else.
"So!" Gu Zheng clasped his hands together and put them on his nose, looking at the two people in front of him, "Are you really going to do this? I would like to remind you, have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this? Once someone is verified, let alone work is gone, even if you hide in the ends of the world, you may be assassinated by various calibers from your own people."
The prince and Eva looked at each other, and the prince said, "I only have one premise, that is, Smirno is the one who betrayed us. Besides that, I don't agree."
Eva also nodded and said, "We must have a moral high ground, otherwise I will be uneasy."
"Then you were so active just now? Smirno's betrayal is probably just a guess."
"No!" the prince disagreed, "He is probably the time bomb buried beside us."
"He is your boss! Do you have no confidence in him?"
"In our industry, it is destined to be impossible to have complete trust in others, especially the boss. The thing that asked you to die is not once or twice. In the past, I could tolerate it because the country was above everything else, but now I can't tolerate it because they want to use us to fatten our pockets under the name of the country, and even to be unfavorable to the entire country." The prince clearly divided it, "Since that's the case, it's all about selling it anyway. What's the difference between them and us selling it? Besides, if we took this batch of gold, we would have safeguarded national security from the side!"
Gu Zheng quietly gave a thumbs up, and Jiang was still so hot. There was no one who found this reason and excuse.
He made an "OK" gesture, first transferring the tank, and then talking about the rest of the matter after finishing his work.
The key to this matter is speed. No one has the prophets of intelligence about the two gold tanks than them. The tugboat flies on the sea at extremely fast speed. The only disadvantage of the flatbed is its unstability. However, after a night of off-road, Gu Zheng has long been used to the feeling of bumpyness. One is sitting on the land and the other is sitting on the sea with steel plates.
Go out of the coast and enter the high seas.
National law does not apply here, only international law.
The ship stopped in the middle of the ocean, drifting with the waves and waves.
Gu Zheng put on his diving equipment and saw Eva in his goggles, just like him, armed into an underwater frogman.
The two of them made gestures and turned over into the sea one after another.
The sea water here is not very deep, only about fifty meters. In the clear sea water, the light conditions are good, and even the lights don't need to be big. Gu Zheng dived down more than twenty meters in one breath and vaguely saw a black rectangular shadow lying quietly under the sea.
He waved to Eva behind him, and the two continued to dive deeper towards the shadow.
When he arrived at the shadow, Gu Zheng confirmed that this was the tank box he threw down in the early morning, so he pulled the rope hanging on his back. After a while, three large iron boxes were hung from the water surface. Gu Zheng and Eva hung the steel rope of the iron box on the tank's waterproof wooden box, and opened the iron box and lifted out the three underwater thrusters inside.
This thing is used for small diving equipment, such as diving cars and diving boats. Compared with the underwater thrusters used by single people, it is probably a few models, and the propulsion method has not changed much.
If you rely solely on the tug, although it can lift the tank from the seabed, it cannot leave the water. Otherwise, the 40-ton force can overturn the tug. It can only use the buoyancy of the seawater to offset the gravity of the tank. However, if this is the case, it is far from enough. If you want to move it, you have to overcome the resistance brought by the seawater. This is no easier than lifting the tank out of the seawater. Therefore, they were triangulated with the box at one end of the wooden box, installed four diverter plates, and artificially created a streamlined wooden box of tanks.
Then connect the thrusters in parallel and fix them in front of the diverter plate with four wire ropes. In this way, the tugboat can just let the tank leave the seabed, start the thruster, and use the diverter plate to destroy the seawater resistance. When driving under the sea, you can easily take the tank and sail in the seawater.
Although the speed may be slower, it is better than not moving.
Having done all this, Gu Zheng let Eva get on the ship. He agreed to start moving the tank at a speed of fifteen kilometers per hour at the same time.
The wire rope dragging the tank wooden box was fixed to the center of the bottom of the flat-bottom tugboat, with a buoyancy bonus of sea water, which was about to convert the drag weight to about twelve tons. The hull could withstand it, but the water line was very deep. When moving, the tugboat made a whimpering cry, as if it was about to fall apart. The engine roared hard. As the bow of the ship sinks, the wire rope tightened and the speed suddenly dropped.
Then, the three underwater thrusters at the bottom of the sea began to work. Gu Zheng held them, determined the direction, and drove all the way to the predetermined location with the wooden boxes behind.
The undersea sonar on the ship constantly feedback the seabed terrain and the depth is constantly decreasing. Eva constantly operates the hinge rope to increase the height of the tank from the seabed to avoid impacting the seabed terrain or rocks.
