Luo Er wondered if he was hallucinating, as he actually heard the word "captive" in his subordinates' mouths during his lifetime.
"What did you say? Say it again!"
"Sir, we...we seem to have been captured. Now it shows that we are in the Dragon Kingdom...Jinhai Port!"
"Fake! Do you know what you are talking about! Are you saying that we were captured by a group of Dragon Kingdom people? Me! The glorious captain of the US Navy, Lore! Captured by Dragon Kingdom people?"
Everyone in the submarine's already small cabin suddenly did not dare to continue talking.
Luo Er felt that he could not control his anger, and his reason told him that his subordinates would not make such a joke at this time!
But when he thought about being captured by the Dragon Kingdom, he was more willing to believe that his men had made a mistake!
In all my years at sea, I have never been captured, whether it was a real battle or a simulated battle.
And the target has always been a person from the Dragon Kingdom that he despises!
What a shame, what a shame!
"Lock the hatch! Contact the Navy Headquarters! Quick! Contact us as fast as possible!"
The subordinates immediately reacted and took action. The correspondent hurriedly operated the communication equipment. However, after he worked hurriedly for more than ten seconds, cold sweat gradually fell on his forehead.
"Sir, the submarine's internal communications have been blocked by unknown signals, and now it is completely unable to contact the outside world."
Luo Er's face turned pale. He knew that he and others were now lambs to be slaughtered, and the butcher was sharpening his knife outside the submarine.
At this moment, the communication station inside the submarine rang with the sound of electric current.
Then a voice came in.
"Hello? Hello...does anyone hear you?"
"Hey...isn't the signal connected?"
"Academician Xu, did the Orca hit too violently and damaged the internal communication equipment?"
"Isn't that true? Is this old Mi's submarine made of mud?"
At this time, Luo Er finally reacted and called a translator beside him and said:
"Tell them, just say that we are the US Navy, and I am Captain Lore of the US Navy. We just accidentally entered the waters of the Dragon Kingdom. Tell them that bringing us back like this is provoking the US. If you don't want to start a war between the two countries, let them immediately Let us go!"
The translator hesitated for a while, and finally spoke Lohr's words into the microphone truthfully.
Xu Zhou and others were silent for a while outside.
"Haha, he broke in unexpectedly and threw the blame on us. If he didn't let us go, he would start a war between the two countries. It's simply ridiculous."
"Don't get excited, Old Zhou. Just get used to it. These American military officers basically have this kind of virtue. They have an inexplicable self-confidence and always feel that the whole world is afraid of them!"
"Haha, the dean is right, so when facing such people, there is no need to prepare so-called preferential treatment for prisoners."
Liu Zhongmin looked at Xu Zhou and said with a smile:
"Xiao Xu, please communicate. We in the Dragon Kingdom do not cause trouble and are not afraid of it!"
After saying this, Xu Zhou probably understood what the boss meant.
It had been so long, Liu Zhongmin must have reported all his battle plans, but now the dean still handed over the initiative to him, which proved that his attitude was recognized by the superiors.
It is obvious that the current Dragon Kingdom, from top to bottom, is eager for change.
Xu Zhou nodded, and then continued to speak into the microphone:
"Please pay attention to your wording and tone. You are not qualified to order me to make any decisions. In addition, your power system and communication capabilities have been cut off by us. Don't try to make any small moves!"
"Secondly, you said that you accidentally entered the waters of our Dragon Kingdom, so this accident is a bit serious. I am very curious that the seas of the United States and the waters of the Dragon Kingdom are so far away. What kind of negligence could make you accidentally come to the waters of the Dragon Kingdom?"
In the submarine cabin, Luo Er's face turned ugly after hearing the translator finish.
Although he didn't understand the language, the young voice had a very arrogant and contemptuous tone, and this attitude said everything.
It is basically impossible to scare the Dragon Kingdom. The only option now is to negotiate!
"Sorry sir, I'm sorry for being anxious just now, but this incident was indeed caused by an accident. Our map showed an error, which led us to the waters of Dragon Kingdom accidentally."
After saying this, Xu Zhou felt a little funny.
In fact, both parties know it well now, but to be able to make such a shameless excuse, I have to say that the person in charge is really thick-skinned.
But Xu Zhou was not going to beat around the bush. Too much nonsense would just waste their research time.
The top priority is to clear out the people as soon as possible so that they can enter the submarine for research.
"Okay, let's stop talking about such ridiculous excuses. Colonel Lohr, I am now officially informing you that because of your 'accidental' intrusion, we also 'accidentally' captured this submarine, so the entire During the 'accident' process, our Dragon Kingdom spent a lot of money, and now you only have two options."
"First, after you, the United States, have paid enough cash to compensate us for our costs, we can consider letting you leave."
"Second, directly use the submarine to pay off the debt. As for the personnel... wait until our investigation is completed and we are sure there are no problems before sending them abroad!"
Inside the submarine, the translator faithfully translated this passage.
In an instant, the faces of Luol and a group of his men turned dark!
What is compensation! It is impossible for the United States to agree to this thing.
Not only did they lose face, but they were also blackmailed for money. As the largest country in the world, the United States, which is used to being domineering, cannot accept such a result!
As for the second point, it is even more outrageous. Nuclear submarines can pay off debts!
Is this human language? The technology embodied in the nuclear submarine is all the research effort of the United States for so many years. The counterfeit technology of the Dragon Kingdom that was left in the Dragon Kingdom to pay off its debts will not be wiped out very soon!
"Impossible! This is banditry. Aren't you afraid of starting a war between the United States and the Dragon Kingdom?"
"Let me tell you, do you know what class of nuclear submarine this is? Ohio-class! Your attempt to keep this submarine will definitely lead to crazy revenge from the United States!"
Xu Zhou said calmly:
"Do you think we need to discuss this with you again now? Colonel Luo Er, our Dragon Kingdom has a saying that a wise man is a man who understands the current situation. The most important thing is to understand the current situation clearly. You have no choice."
"Now either you open the hatch and we can give you a decent detention environment, or if we force a breakthrough, all of you will face multiple charges, and your treatment during detention is not guaranteed!"
"We are not in the mood to continue chatting with you, and we will not give you a second chance to answer. Tell me your choice in three minutes!"
After speaking, Xu Zhou gently put down the intercom device, checked the time, and started counting down.
In the submarine, Lore was caught in a battle between heaven and man.
Through the few words he just said, he already knew that Long Guo was serious this time!
From another perspective, if the United States captures the Dragon Kingdom submarine in the sea, it may not even have a chance to negotiate and directly destroy it.
Therefore, Long Guo's current attitude, although unexpectedly tough, is also reasonable.
Luo Er also knew that the other party actually looked down on his group of people at all. What Long Guo valued most was the technical core of this nuclear submarine!
Otherwise, they will most likely sink to the bottom of the sea like the seven submarines in Sakura Country, and they will not even be qualified to negotiate!
Thinking clearly about these, Lore has fully accepted the current situation.
Now even if they agree that humans can live, submarines will definitely be thoroughly studied. If they don’t agree that humans can live, they don’t know. Submarines will still be studied.
Lore sighed:
"Tell them that to ensure our lives are safe, we...are willing to get off the cabin!"
After everyone in Xu Zhou heard what the translator said, they immediately looked at each other with smiles.
"It's done. I didn't expect that one day we would be able to study the American Ohio-class submarines openly!"
"Hahaha, this is all thanks to Academician Xu, but next time, the United States..."
"The United States naturally has the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to respond to the situation. It breaks into the waters of Dragon Country without permission. This situation cannot be justified no matter how the United States makes excuses."
"Zhanli? When has the United States considered this? It is better at sanctions."
At this time Liu Zhongmin waved his hand and said:
"Okay, we don't need to worry about this matter. After the personnel transfer, the people from the Armament Bureau will seize the time to study this submarine with us."
Then he said to Xu Zhou:
"Xiao Xu, just leave things here to us."
"Okay, then I won't worry about it. There is indeed a lot of things waiting for me at the scientific research base. I'll leave first!"
After saying this, he said hello to everyone and left the place quickly.
After all, time waits for no one, and now they are basically at loggerheads with Sakura Country and Mi Country.
Even if the war doesn't start next, there will be local friction.
So it’s time for his technological products in the past six months to be launched one after another!
