There was a heat wave in the boiler room. The naked coal shovel rounded up the shovel and threw the clean coal into the burning boiler. The flames released endless heat energy, and the boiling water vapor brought strong kinetic energy. The Svetlana The propeller began to spin rapidly.
The huge steel battleship rushed towards the shallow water in the north. The bottom of the ship scraped against the rocks, and large pieces of coral reef were smashed into pieces by the strong propellers.
The boiler warehouse is at the bottom of the battleship. The people working here can clearly feel the vibrations under their feet, and can even hear the sound of scratching against hard objects on the bottom of the ship. The bursts of tooth-ache screams frighten them.
"What is the captain doing? Where is he taking us?" a blond sailor asked in horror.
"Stop talking so much. We only have two hours a day to go up to the deck for wind. I don't even know where I am now..." Another black coal shoveler shook his head and sighed.
"But...but there has never been such a sound! Could it be that we have hit a rock..."
"Bah, bah, bah... don't say such unlucky words. What you need in a naval battle is a good word of mouth... You will be victorious in every battle, and you will be victorious in every battle!"
There are only 12 coal shovelers in the huge boiler house, guarding the six blazing coal inlets and struggling to swing their shovels. The cinders and sweat are mixed together, creating ravines on the skin.
The chief engineer's crazy and almost distorted roar came from the copper pipes in the boiler room, "Add coal... speed up the coal addition! Increase the firepower! God bless us, burn all these coals, don't leave a single cinder..."
"Increase firepower!" At this time, a loud banging sound suddenly came from outside the boiler room. The entire coal pile trembled, and the coal hit back and forth. This was the battleship's main gun starting to fire.
The entire keel of the battleship made a creaking and rubbing sound. Normally, everyone in the boiler room should have been used to hearing this sound, but today's sound made them feel a little uneasy.
"Why do you always feel like something is going to happen? I'm so nervous..." Before the blond young man could finish his words, the battleship suddenly shuddered, as if it hit something.
Bang...click...
Amidst the loud noise, people fell to the ground one after another. Just as they were about to get up, the blond boy suddenly screamed in horror, "There's water... The boiler room is filled with water..."
Just like a naughty child holding the mouth of a faucet, high-pressure seawater shoots out from the gaps in the bottom of the ship, sprays onto the ceiling, and then falls like dense rain.
"It's on the rocks! The boiler room is on the rocks and leaking... Bring the water pump over quickly..." The boiler chief rushed to the copper pipe outlet and shouted loudly, but at this moment there was no response from outside, only chaotic and noisy roars and rolling gunfire. It came from the copper pipe.
The boiler chief couldn't hear what was being shouted outside. It took him a long time to distinguish one word, which was to fire a cannon. Now the only sound that could be heard clearly on the battleship was this.
The boiler chief knew that something was wrong. He looked back at his brothers and found that the seawater that was just a trickle had now turned into a rolling spring. The four brothers rushed to block it with their bodies, but how could they block it? live.
"Brothers, it's a mess outside. I can't find where the chief engineer is... No one cares about us anymore. There's all the sound of gunfire outside... There are two roads now. One is to hold on here and wait to die. Can it be blocked? A little while, a little while..."
"The other way is to rush out and fight with a gun like a man. We can't be coal shovelers for the rest of our lives! You make your choice!"
People did not hesitate at all, "I choose the second way! They say that we are soldiers, but the result is shoveling coal. I am tired of shoveling coal endlessly..."
"Okay, everyone is fed up, and I'm fed up too... open the hatch and let's rush out and see how awesome fighting can be!"
The sea water poured in very fast. When people opened the hatch and prepared to go through the bilge to the upper deck, the sea water had already penetrated into a burning boiler.
There was a tingling sound, water vapor suddenly filled the air, and the temperature in the boiler room soared like a sauna!
After leaving the familiar post, everything outside was truly presented in front of everyone's eyes. The entire battleship was in complete chaos. There were running sailors everywhere. The injured sailors on the deck were dragged into the cabin, and the floor was covered with bright red blood. Blood and dirty footprints.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of burning gunpowder and the thick smell of blood, now coupled with the salty smell of evaporated moist seawater.
All structures are in chaos. Soldiers at all levels are fighting based on instinct. People can't find their commanders, and officers can't find their soldiers! In addition to the wails of the injured, the sounds in my ears were the roars of various searches.
"Who has the key to Weapon No. 3... Damn it! Who knows how to talk!"
"The iron door of the vice-captain's room is stuck. Where is the fire ax? Break it open..."
"Commander of Communications... Where is the Commander of Communications? All flagbearers on the deck are dead..."
"The No. 2 main gun needs a loader! Whoever has fucking training in loading should get over here..."
…
Everyone is running, everyone is shouting, and everyone has a ferocious expression of death on their faces. Human beings have turned into beasts controlled by instinct.
The ignorant people in the boiler warehouse acted as if they were not part of this battleship, walking stupidly through the cabins and aisles like zombies.
Just now, the blond boy saw a wounded soldier crawling on the ground in the cabin. Just as he was about to go over to help, he heard a loud bang. A cannonball penetrated into the cabin from the hull. The violent explosion immediately blew the small cabin into pieces. ruins.
When the smoke and dust dissipated, people discovered that the cabin was open to the open air. A large hole with a diameter of one meter had been blasted out of the outer hull. People could clearly see the mountains, rivers, and tragic battlefields outside.
"Oh God! The squadron has all hit the rocks! I know it. This is the commander who deliberately let the battleships hit the rocks. This is because he is looking for the best shooting position to suppress the enemies on the mountain!"
"Didn't we win last night? Why did it happen in such a short time? We have to commit suicide to attack? What the hell is this place..."
The main battleship under Hermansky's feet was slowly tilting. The Svetlana finally got the best shooting position, and the remaining battleships in the squadron also took the best gun positions. However, these battleships have also reached the end of their lives. the end of.
The bombardment is the last song of these warships, and the smoke from the Chinese artillery position opposite is the final revenge of these warships!
Hermansky was crying. He watched with his own eyes as frigates and main warships rushed to the reef area one after another, collided and then ran aground and lost power. They were like sperm whales dying on the beach, struggling with their last bit of strength.
"I've tried my best! I really tried my best! Commander-in-Chief, we must seize the escape time we bought with our lives! Exon, please hurry up, we really can't hold on much longer... "
"Please God bless us, there must be no accidents at the exit of the strait to the west! Please rush out quickly! There is really no time..."
