Now the Americans are sending out the last of their strength.
In recent years, the United States has been building up its navy, and even hopes to obtain the technology of the Atlanteans, the kind of huge warships that can sneak underwater. The U.S. Navy is already crying. For this reason, Benjamin and the top government officials not only hope that Kai can be a matchmaker, but even Arthur's old father, Atlanna's human mistress, is also working for the US government, hoping to do something from it.
It's a pity that Arthur's father, a poor old man whose name even the author has forgotten, can be regarded as a memory of Atlanna. If you want to talk about feelings... there must be some. But first of all, Atlanna is the queen of the Atlanteans. She cannot go against the interests of the entire Atlantean people for the sake of her own feelings.
Giving Atlantean technology to humans...that would do no good to the Atlanteans. The resources Atlantis needs are found under the sea! Richer and more efficient than humans. It can be said that land has no attraction to the Atlanteans. Otherwise, the Atlanteans would never have thought of entering the land for so many years.
And what happens after humans get Atlantis’ technology?
They will spy on the resources under the sea, and they will definitely compete with the Atlanteans. This is not a good thing for the Atlanteans. They are living well on the seabed, so why should they cultivate one for themselves? Competitor?
Let alone the queen's concubine, even if the queen herself is willing, the people of Atlantis are not willing.
It was even more impossible for Kai to make such a request, because it was simply impossible. Don't talk about global integration and joint response to crises...that's useless. Ordinary people in Atlantis are the same as ordinary people on the surface. They will not be able to see further just because they are more educated.
So Kai never mentioned it at all.
But Father Arthur, because of the US government's lobbying, actually mentioned it... You can imagine how embarrassed Atlanna was at the time.
In short, this matter is settled.
The U.S. government has no choice but to continue its own naval construction plan.
But this is not without its benefits.
The U.S. Navy is indeed the number one in the world, but its hidden worries are also obvious. That is the chaotic development direction of the US military, and various bizarre operations. The Independence-class and Freedom-class littoral combat ships, Zumwalt-class destroyers, and Ford-class nuclear-powered super aircraft carriers are known as the three most sci-fi surface ships in the world. (These three surface ships are really good-looking. At least the littoral combat ship and Zumwalt-class destroyer have a very sci-fi look.)
However, these three sci-fi warships have made the U.S. Navy a big enemy.
However, compared to the USS Ford, which has been in service for 5 years and has not yet developed combat effectiveness, and the Zumwalt, which is in various situations and has no ammunition to use.
At least the cost of the Littoral Combat Ship has soared exaggeratedly, and the maintenance costs are also exorbitant. (The combination of the Littoral Combat Ship’s over-standard power system, complex propulsion methods, and flashy aluminum alloy hull has a direct consequence of the Independence-class The annual operating cost of the Littoral Combat Ship is as high as US$79 million). There have also been some engine failures and ship-wide power outages, but the Littoral Combat Ship has developed combat effectiveness quickly! No matter how bad it is, it is better than not being able to form combat effectiveness! ….
But the U.S. Navy has proven with facts that one should never underestimate the black-heartedness of the military-industrial complex. It was originally thought that the Littoral Combat Ship had a smaller pit than Ford and Zumwalt. However, after the Freedom-class Littoral Combat Ship was exposed to a gearbox failure, the Independence-class Littoral Combat Ship actually experienced a hull fracture problem.
Six of the 13 Independence-class littoral combat ships delivered by the US military have cracks in "high stress areas of the structure." And the reason for this problem is not accidental, but because the design strength of the 36th and 45th hull frames of the Independence-class littoral combat ship is insufficient.
Very pitiful...
It can only be said that the U.S. Navy is truly the world’s biggest enemy. U.S. Navy surface ships are 100-300% more expensive than surface ships of the same level around the world. The difference between the contract price and the final price can even be 50%. -200%!
The estimated cost of the Ford-class aircraft carrier in 2005 was US$8 billion, and the final cost was US$13 billion. In 2006, the U.S. Navy estimated that Zumvod
The unit price of Alt was US$1.279 billion per unit (in 2006, the United States planned to purchase two ships for US$2.568 billion). The final unit price was US$4.5 billion per unit (calculating R&D costs evenly shared). The unit price of the Littoral Combat Ship increased from US$220 million. To 670 million and 704 million.
That's not all. The key is that the contract has been signed, and there are many interests involved. Even if the U.S. Congress knows that the Navy is messing around, it still can't suspend it because Congress itself is also involved in dividing the interests.
Naturally, it is impossible to rebel against oneself, so even though everyone knows that it is a scam, no one dares to stop it.
It's fine now, it's all gone!
I feel relaxed and can draw on a piece of white paper... Of course, this does not change the reality that the US Navy fainted from crying in the toilet. You know, the US Navy lost more than just surface ships in the previous disaster!
It also includes outstanding naval officers, sailors and various ship technicians belonging to the hundreds of thousands class!
If the ships are gone, the most they can do is build them. This can be used to revitalize the American industry, and there are a lot of orders... But for those outstanding naval officers, sailors and various technical personnel, it is not that easy!
That is the true heritage of the Navy!
The navy is a high-tech branch of the military in any era. It is not a major force in the army. It can go to the battlefield with just a gun. Training a qualified naval officer requires a lot of time and expertise. In addition, professionals in combat departments and service departments also need a very high degree of professionalism.
Let’s not talk about the combat department, let’s talk about the logistics department. For example, the takeoff controllers, landing commanders, refuelers, fire fighters, damage control personnel, etc. on the aircraft carrier deck all need a lot of theoretical study and training.
But now these have suffered heavy losses.
However, the U.S. Navy cannot allow the existing personnel to retire and retain the firepower, because they still need these people to stay in the 6th Fleet to maintain combat effectiveness. Because recruits still need a lot of training before they can board the ship and develop combat effectiveness.
For this reason, the U.S. Navy has to recruit a large number of retired sailors to replenish its combat effectiveness.
This has led to the emergence of many over-aged sailors in the U.S. Navy.
But now, this last single seedling has been sent out... which is enough to illustrate the attitude of the United States.
After all, if those monsters are really allowed to land in the United States, the blow to the hearts and minds of native Americans will be devastating. ….
They have always believed that they are number one in the world, and that their system, civilization and even ideas are of course the best. However, repeated blows have changed the mentality of the United States, which is invincible in the world.
But the pride of once being number one in the world is still in their hearts. Most Americans still believe that the United States is God's chosen country (many Americans really think so). The most typical one is 'exceptionalism'. American exceptionalism believes that compared with any other country, the United States is Distinctive and outstanding in temperament; superior from a social and political perspective. It means that Americans are inherently superior to those born elsewhere. Americans, therefore, have the responsibility and qualification to spread their liberal democratic form around the world.
This very rogue and obviously populist idea is very popular in the United States.
But the United States does not have the Chinese thinking that "when heaven is about to give a great responsibility to a person, he must first strain his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his skin, deplete his body, and mess up his actions."
To put it bluntly, they are just a bunch of spoiled brats who take everything for granted because they are exceptions after all.
But if those disasters happen again and again, what Americans once believed in will be shaken.
Don’t you talk about God’s chosen country?
Why do disasters strike again and again?
Then the negative effect of exceptionalism will be reflected, why does God not care about them? It was definitely because they were abandoned by God and they were wrong.
That would be disastrous for the United States.
In short, Benjamin and the upper class of the United States are actually more awake than everyone else. After all, all the popular thinking in the United States was concocted by them, and they are more aware of the negative effects of those things.
.
So even though they knew that doing so would completely reduce the U.S. Navy to a third-rate status, they did not hesitate to dispatch the 6th Fleet.
Back to business.
Just as the U.S. Sixth Fleet arrived quickly, Rodan finally met Ghidorah head-on!
Rodon was completely convincing when facing Ghidorah, who was much bigger than him. (The legendary Rodon in the movie is only 47 meters tall and has a wingspan of about 265.5 meters. However, Ghidorah is 159.8 meters tall and has a wingspan of over 518.16 meters. This is ridiculous... It's like a little brother in kindergarten interacting with adults. It was just as ridiculous to fight, so I changed the setting and changed Raton to the data of the fourth generation Raton, 100 meters tall and 265.5 meters wingspan)
It spread its wings and flew towards Ghidorah.
Ghidorah didn't seem to expect that he would be attacked by such a little guy. (Raton and Ghidorah are not only very different in height and wingspan, but also in weight. Raton is only 39,000 tons, while Ghidorah is 140,000 tons)
So when Rodon pounced on Ghidorah, Ghidorah didn't react at all.
The sharp claws on Rodon's wings grabbed Ghidorah's two heads, and then pecked towards Ghidorah's chest!
Roar!
Rodon's beak penetrated Ghidorah's chest fiercely, and then he turned his head and tore off a large piece of meat from Ghidorah's chest!
Ghidorah was immediately enraged, and its free head bit hard at Rodon. Unexpectedly, Rodon grabbed Ghidorah's head on both sides with his wings and slammed the head in the middle! ….
Let Ghidorah's attack be smashed away at once.
That wasn't the end yet. Rodon raised his claws and grabbed Ghidorah's abdomen. The sharp claws almost disemboweled Ghidorah!
Two hundred-meter giant beasts fought in the air. The noise was so loud that even Kai and Tony who were far away from them could hear their roars.
"They fell!"
Tony shouted pointing into the distance.
Sure enough, in the distant sky, two giant beasts fell from the hurricane at high altitude, and kept biting each other.
Scales and flesh continued to fall off from their bodies, and then crashed onto the sea.
"Where are we now?" Kai suddenly thought of something and asked Tony.
"Us?" Tony hadn't considered this question yet, and was stunned when he heard Kai ask, and then said: "We are about 120 nautical miles south of Innspaniola Island in the Greater Andres Islands. "
Kai looked at Tony.
"What's wrong?" Tony was confused and felt baffled.
"What the hell do you think I know about the string of nouns you mentioned?" Kai had never heard of these two words.
"Oh, Innspaniola is Haiti and Dominica." Tony immediately understood why Kai said that.
Indeed, most people really don’t go out of their way to remember such complicated terms. If you just say the country's name, it will be more eye-catching. Kai was not familiar with the two countries of Haiti and Dominica, but at least he had heard of them, much more clearly than the Greater Andres Islands and Innspaniola Island.
"In other words... there are many people not far from here?"
"That's right!"
"That's right! Hurry up and notify the other party to evacuate!"
One hundred and twenty nautical miles, for ordinary people, can be said to be very far. But for these two monsters... it's not that far away. With their flying speed, they can fly there with just two more wings.
Tony sent a message to the United States with a depressed look.
He really didn't expect it.
Roar!
While wailing, Rodon was hit in the chest by Ghidorah's golden lightning breath, and then he had to let go of Ghidorah's body and fell into the sea from the air!
Ghidorah couldn't understand his hatred and rushed down from the air reluctantly.
But Laton was not a vegetarian either. The sea surface where Laton originally fell was seen rolling, and a large number of bubbles and steam spurted out from under the water, and the water below was also dyed red.
Then we are approaching Ghidorah
At that moment, a huge flame, like a burning sun, broke out of the sea and rushed towards Ghidorah.
It's Raton.
At this time, Raton's whole body was covered with surging flames, just like the Golden Crow in ancient Chinese legends.
It seemed that the temperature of Raton's body was so high that even the rock carapace on its body was melted, and countless lava poured down from its body. The skin under the lava was exposed. Interestingly, Raton's skin was now the same color as the bright red lava, making him look like a big bird made of lava.
Roar!
As the lava on his body melted and peeled off, Rodon's speed became faster, so much so that Ghidorah's golden lightning breath could not hit it at all. Instead, Rodon grabbed one of the heads fiercely and directly killed it. The dragon horn on his head was broken off.
When Raton occupied the high altitude, Raton also started using his breath weapon.
It opened its big mouth and spit out a pillar of fire!
The huge pillar of fire sprayed fiercely on Ghidorah's body. The temperature of the pillar of fire was so high that it actually destroyed the scales on Ghidorah's body in an instant. Its scales dried up, burned and fell off at a speed visible to the naked eye! .
