179 Cruise ships turn into submarines

When Zhuo Ziqiang woke up, it was already noon. Liu Xiaolei and others had already handled the aftermath work. The Longyun was anchored in the southern part of the South China Sea, waiting for the evening activities.

The current form of the Longyun is a cruise ship. In order not to attract attention, it also turns on the invisible device in broad daylight. Although it costs some energy, Zhuo Ziqiang, who now has tens of thousands of energy points, doesn't care about this consumption anymore.

Zhuo Ziqiang originally planned to go to Annan's oil well to take a few more laps to the evening, but later he thought about it, but he still didn't go there for the time being. After this fire exchange, I think Annan will definitely be alive for a while and will never dare to take the risk of refining oil.

As for the British Empire, although this incident made them very annoyed, they would not send warships to die before they knew the enemy's strength.

Then even if the matter in the South China Sea came to an end, Zhuo Ziqiang turned his attention to the direction of base construction.

Of course, the base is not necessary, but floating on the sea every day, Zhuo Ziqiang always feels uneasy. If he is besieged one day, he can't run around the world, and people must have a home.

To establish a base, there must be a lot of funds, and ten or eight hundred million may be small. It is necessary to find a way to make some money.

The Daxia Kingdom has developed rapidly in recent years and has invested greatly in the military. Zhuo Ziqiang can raise a lot of funds by selling special steel.

In addition to this path, Zhuo Ziqiang has another idea, which is to be a pirate. This was originally his current profession, but he, a pirate, is the most inappropriate pirate. He fights and kills all day long, but he has not really robbed many ships.

In the future, it is time to be a promising profession of pirates.

However, the first thing to do now is to sell the steel from these two broken warships and raise some funds.

Zhuo Ziqiang did it as soon as he said, and he took out his phone and called Tang Jinguang, saying that he had obtained about 10,000 tons of special steel, and asked him if he needed it now.

When Tang Jinguang heard that he had special steel again, he said he could trade it immediately. However, he knew that the military bosses' evaluation of this kind of steel was simply a super high-tech product. Those professionals have been studying for so long but still haven't figured out how today's technology can make such high-strength steel.

However, Tang Jinguang still reminded Zhuo Ziqiang that the relevant departments were investigating him and hoped that he would not show up in Daxia Country, and the transaction location should be placed in another place.

Zhuo Ziqiang was just thinking about it, so he decided to place the transaction location on an island in the South China Sea.

The Daxia Navy is stationed on some islands in the South China Sea. Although it is just symbolic sentinels, it is also considered the territory of the navy. The goods are transported to those small islands and then the military will load them back to the mainland.

However, all this naturally requires the military's permission, otherwise he would not have been able to pull the steel to the island casually.

Tang Jinguang naturally agreed at once, which was easy for their military.

Zhuo Ziqiang proposed another condition, that is, when he transports steel, no one should be present or monitored secretly, otherwise, he would not continue trading in the future.

Tang Jinguang understood Zhuo Ziqiang's idea. These steels must have something shameful. Since he didn't want people to know, he gave up on the idea of ​​knowing where the steel came from.

After obtaining this steel, the senior military leaders naturally understood the importance of this special steel immediately, and the transaction with Zhuo Ziqiang also raised a new level. As long as Zhuo Ziqiang's requirements are not too excessive, they will generally accept them.

Since Tang Jinguang agreed to this transaction method, Zhuo Ziqiang also felt that it was much easier to deal with. He just needed to transport the steel to the island. Everything below was settled by Tang Jinguang, and he just took the money.

With the funding source, Zhuo Ziqiang is ready to start asking Longyun to find a suitable base location.

If the base wants to be absolutely safe, it must be built under deep water. Even if a nuclear bomb explodes on the sea surface, it will not affect the safety of the base. This is a qualified base.

To find a suitable location, Longyun must be deformed and dived. Although Longyun can detect various underwater conditions, the geological conditions underwater must be inspected in person.

Each deformation requires fifty points of energy. Although it doesn't seem to be much on the surface, if the situation requires it and the number of deformations is too high, this is also a huge consumption.

However, it is not the time to consider these things now. Zhuo Ziqiang has been looking forward to this first transformation for a long time. Taking this opportunity to see the underwater scenery is also good.

Although the steel transaction has been negotiated, it will take some time to actually operate. Tang Jinguang still needs to report to the upper hand, and then the military will issue layers of orders, which will not take a day or a day. Tang Jinguang will naturally contact him at that time.

After another day of freedom on the sea, at night, Zhuo Ziqiang ordered the Longyun began to transform.

When it was deformed, Zhuo Ziqiang still stayed in his luxurious presidential suite. During the deformation, the room did not change at all. However, the night view outside was slowly replaced by a layer of thick steel plates. If the lights were turned off, it would now be a black box that was completely out of sight.

It seems that Zhuo Ziqiang's desire to sink to the bottom of the water to see the landscape was disappointed.

Originally, Zhuo Ziqiang thought that the various facilities on the ship would change greatly during this transformation, but it was not the case.

All the rooms on the Longyun account did not seem to have much change, but part of the space has been compressed, and various facilities are still the same.

Only the ballistic missiles remain in place at the top. As for the other weapons, they are also hidden in the bow and stern, which is more suitable to exert their maximum power.

The current Longyun is like a mango shape, which is more sci-fi than contemporary submarines. Of course, Zhuo Ziqiang has never entered the submarine and cannot compare the difference between the two. However, he knows that the air inside the submarine is very narrow, which is definitely very different from the Longyun.

I just don’t know how the pressure-reducing drainage bin is set up, so I don’t need to worry about these things, as long as I feel comfortable inside.

Undoubtedly, Longyun is doing well in this regard. At least Zhuo Ziqiang can't feel that there is nothing wrong with all aspects of his body. This is also one of the benefits of high-tech products.

Looking out the dark window, there were actually no windows anymore. Zhuo Ziqiang felt a little frustrated, so he came to the cab with a few people.

Surprisingly, Zhuo Ziqiang saw a large piece of thick glass directly in front of the cab, which could observe the situation outside, but at this time, it was also dark.

He knew that the submarine had no glass windows, and the pressure under deep water was extremely high, so installing a piece of glass was purely a search for death.

But since the Longyun is equipped with glass, it is also a rare special synthetic glass, otherwise it would not be able to withstand the terrifying water pressure.

"This Longyun is quite humane! I know that I want to see the underwater scenery, so I specially installed a viewing glass for me!" Zhuo Ziqiang praised Longyun for a few seconds.

"Dear Captain, this is actually just a habit!" Long Yun Computer responded illiterately.

Zhuo Ziqiang was stunned and immediately understood what this meant. It must be a common design for space warships, so he copied it on this submersible, not to take care of his ideas.

"Then, start working!" Zhuo Ziqiang ordered angrily.

The submarine has very weak light in shallow water. When it reaches the depths, even if there is a window, there is nothing outside, so this window is not very useful.

Underwater, submarines mainly rely on submarine topographic maps and active sonar to determine the terrain and whether there are obstacles in front.

Turning on active sonar is undoubtedly equivalent to indicating the position of submarine warships of various countries that are cruising back and forth on the seabed, and their stealth advantage will completely lose its effect. Therefore, except for extremely special circumstances, submarines generally do not turn on active sonar.

If you don’t turn on the active sonar, you can only rely on the undersea topography map. The undersea topography has not been fully drawn yet. At most, the submarines still take safer routes, which is why so many submarine collisions have occurred.

The Longyun has no concerns in this regard. Its detection ability is not comparable to that of today's technology. Navigating under the sea is as steadily as a long-distance athlete walking slowly on a country road.

The upgraded Longyun has reached fifty nautical miles of detection distance to the seabed, and has not changed any changes due to changes in hydrological conditions.

This distance is much stronger than that of contemporary submarines. Even if a contemporary submarine is activated, the distance of the longest will not exceed ten nautical miles. This data will only decrease but not increase due to the advantages and disadvantages of hydrological conditions.

In addition, the Longyun can clearly draw a perfect scene within a radius of 50 kilometers and transmit it to the cab screen. This performance overshadows all contemporary submarines.

So when Zhuo Ziqiang saw the topographic maps displayed on the screens of large and small in the cab, he couldn't help but be amazed.

On several screens, the largest 3D terrain map displayed can be touched by hand to flip and move the picture to see the specific situation in all aspects. Needless to say, the small black dot in the middle is naturally the Longyun number.

The smallest one is the landscape within the closest distance. After looking at this, Zhuo Ziqiang realized that the Longyun No. 1 really does not require windows, because the smallest screen outside is like a window, clearly showing the scenery in front of the Longyun No. 1.

Although this screen is the smallest, it has reached more than 30 inches, which looks extremely pleasing to the eye.
