When the emergency call came, major general Ivanov, the head of the North devonsk naval base of the North Sea fleet, looked blankly at the light outside the window. His head didn''t seem to wake up from the contents of the explosion.


    "What are you talking about? Our naval base was invaded? The invaders dragged the Arkhangelsk out of the North devonsk Shipyard with our ocean tugboat? And then fled in it?"


    If you don''t know very well that you only drank half a bottle of vodka last night, this vodka and your drinking capacity can''t make you drunk at all. Major general Ivanov really suspects that he has auditory hallucinations!


    "Yes, general. You heard right. Someone invaded the naval base and we lost a ballistic missile nuclear submarine..."


    Over the phone, there came the low voice of lieutenant colonel bunoyevsky who was on duty last night. Even though he was across the phone, Ivanov could hear it. He was trying to control his emotions and didn''t make his voice sound flustered.

    "General, it''s not convenient to talk in detail on the phone. Please come to the headquarters as soon as possible. Please be prepared. The situation is more serious and complex than you think."

    More than an hour later, what happened in North devonsk was truthfully reported to the main base of the Russian Navy''s Northern Fleet in Murmansk, which soon shocked the whole Northern Fleet.


    No one dares to hide the fact that a ballistic missile nuclear submarine has been lost, even if it is a submarine waiting to be retired.


    Moreover, behind the loss of the Arkhangelsk, there is an unspeakable strangeness.


    Therefore, the situation was finally summarized and uploaded to the Defense Ministry building in Moscow before dawn, and once again shocked the insiders of the defense ministry.


    Defense Minister Konashenkov had to make an emergency report to the presidential palace after hearing the news and learning what had happened in North devonsk. Even he did not dare to make any decision.
