Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Sea Wolf Strikes!

Perhaps no one would have imagined that when the Japanese bomber group arrived in Shillong, Hu Biao's newly formed Sea Wolf Commando was already lurking near the Japanese aircraft carrier formation. And the aircraft carrier formation that stopped at sea at this time did not notice it at all.

Although submarines at this time were far less advanced than later generations, many naval vessels were also unaware of submarines lurking beneath the sea. Equipment such as underwater radar has not yet been installed on warships.

In many cases, it is also necessary to have observation posts to observe whether there is a submarine under the surface of the sea. By looking at the submarine lookout scope sticking out of the water, you can find out in advance whether there are any submarines hiding around the fleet, and then send out fighter planes to carry out bombing.

In addition to this, it can destroy submarines hidden beneath the surface of the sea, and it can also send ships to drop depth charges underwater. In short, at this time, the technology of the navies of various countries to prevent submarines was relatively backward, which also led to the fact that submarines began to be valued by various countries.

At present, the submarines equipped by the Seawolf Commando are all custom-procured from Meunia without exception. Its submarine model is also the latest in Menia. To be able to buy these submarines, Hu Biao also spent a lot of thought.

As for the Meniya military, they don't really value submarines. In their opinion, the submarine is slow under water and has a relatively short cruising range. Once discovered by an enemy fleet, there is hardly much chance of survival.

It's just that for Hu Biao at this moment, he formed this submarine formation, more for coastal defense. In real deep-sea operations, in Hu Biao's view, submarines at this time are extremely lacking in all performance. A lot of the time, Haixun has to be extra careful.

In the eyes of the Memenian military, these submarines are still relatively advanced in performance, and they are more of a new type of experimental submarines. Although it has undergone various sea trials, it has not been tested how strong the actual combat performance is.

Through this arms sale, the Meinia military also hopes to see what kind of combat effectiveness these submarines can exert in the hands of Hu Biao. For today's navies, most of them still value speed, protection and artillery caliber.

Even aircraft carriers are more often than just mobile platforms on the water used to carry fighters. Before missiles were developed, aircraft carriers were actually a platform for aircraft to lift at sea, and their actual combat effectiveness was extremely limited.

Through the periscope realm, Liu Yuanyuan, the captain of the Sea Wolf Commando, quickly set his sights on the Japanese aircraft carrier in the middle with the largest displacement. In addition, the several search cruisers guarding next to the aircraft carrier naturally attracted Liu Changyuan's attention.

Perhaps waiting for the fighters to return, Liu Changyuan found that the officers and men of the Japanese aircraft carrier formation seemed to be very lax. This laxity may have been due to the fact that the Japanese felt that no one was their opponent in the seas of Asia.

On the laid operational map, Liu Yuanyuan marked the location of several Japanese warships. After some calculations, Liu Changyuan immediately said: "The Japanese aircraft carrier can no longer see the existence of aircraft, and they have already taken off and left, so let's hit the frigate next to it first!" ”

"Captain, in this way, the little devil's aircraft carrier is very likely to run away!"

"It doesn't matter! The aircraft carrier of the little devil, I will be in charge of it personally. We have a limited number of torpedoes, so make sure you hit with one hit. Only in this way will it be possible for us to leave smoothly after launching an attack. Otherwise, you know the consequences! ”

"Understood! Even if you die, this time you have to drag the little devil's warship into the sea! ”

"Nonsense! If you really think so, I will dismiss you from your post now. It seems that you have not taken the words of the wolf head to heart. This surprise attack on the Japanese aircraft carrier formation is more of an opportunity for us to test our combat effectiveness.

If you put the whole Seawolf Commando on board, do you have the trust that the wolf head gives us? You should know what a price the wolf head paid to build our commando team. Are you willing to let it be ruined once and for all? ”

Whether it is the Sea Eagle Commando commanded by Lin Haoyuan or the Sea Wolf Commando commanded by Liu Yuanyuan, they are actually naval talents trained by Hu Biao for the future construction of the Navy. For these two commandos, Hu Biao also put a lot of thought into it.

Liu Changyuan, who was appointed as the captain, also followed Hu Biao for a period of time and received Hu Biao's teachings. He knew very well that both commandos were the foundation of the future navy, so how could he easily say that they would die together?

After some admonition, Liu Changyuan began to assign tasks to the nine submarines under his command. The largest aircraft carrier will be the Seawolf No. 1 submarine piloted by Liu Changyuan, and the rest of the submarines will be assigned to raid other ships.

After the order was issued, Liu Changyuan, who stayed in the command room, quietly felt the silence of the submarine moving slowly. At the same time, the telegraph operator who was responsible for receiving the telegram also reported one after another: "Captain, the third has sent a telegram, and it has arrived at the attack position!" ”

Considering the inevitability and accuracy of the surprise attack, Liu Changyuan deliberately explained to the rest of the submarines and first transferred the submarines to the best attack position. After all the submarines were in position, a cluster raid was carried out to deal a fatal blow to the Japanese fleet.

As long as the locked Japanese fleet ship is hit by a torpedo, then the submarine will become much safer. It is completely possible to float outside the safe area and continue the second or even third attack on the locked Japanese ships.

After all the submarines sent a telegram to arrive at the best attack position, Liu Changyuan took a deep breath and said, "Start the countdown!" Three minutes later, the submarines immediately surfaced and began to attack! Tell the captains to try to make sure the starters hit! ”

"Yes, Captain!"

After receiving the telegram from Liu Changyuan, the officers and men of the other submarines also began to become nervous. As the minutes passed, the captains stared at their watches. When the time for the attack came, the captain said, "Float!" Torpedo ready! ”

Accompanied by submarines lurking under the sea, they floated at a constant speed. Some of the little devils who were resting on the deck soon saw a whale-like behemoth suddenly emerge on the sea not far from the ship.

"Is it a whale? How can there be whales in this place? ”

Just when some little devils mistakenly thought it was a whale surfaced. Some officers looked up and immediately said, "Enemy attack!" Enemy attack! It's a submarine! Yaga, that's a submarine! How can there be submarines here? ”

The submarine, which had successfully surfaced, also began to lock on to the warship in front of which it was responsible for attacking. In accordance with the previous operating procedures, the officers who were tasked with the attack shouted one after another: "The target has been locked!" ”

"Launch!"

When the first torpedo was launched, the torpedo that left the torpedo tube quickly ran towards the warship floating in the sea in front of it. And at this time, the little devil who learned that there was a submarine next to the warship couldn't believe that all this was true.

The warship, which was about to start the warship and get rid of the threat of torpedoes at speed, soon saw a torpedo that was making a splash and going straight for itself from the water. Seeing this scene, many little devils screamed: "Torpedo! Be careful, there are torpedoes! ”

It is a pity that some warships have completely stopped their ignition before, and it is simply too late to restart and accelerate evasion. And although some warships have not turned off, is it not a simple matter to quickly turn around at sea?

In the final analysis, from the beginning to the end, these confident and arrogant little devils did not expect that such a large number of submarines would suddenly appear near the coastal waters located in Guinan. In their impression, the Republic of China no longer has a navy!

Most of the few warships are anchored in inland waterways. Not a single warship that can really pass through the sea can be seen. As for the so-called submarines, since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the little devils have never heard of it.

Knowing that the fleet was surrounded and ambushed by a large number of submarines, the first reaction of the commander of the Japanese fleet was that Britain, France, or Menia and other countries sent it. The problem is that they also know a lot about the fleets of these countries in Asia!

The colonial fleet, stationed near the city of Haiphong, also never heard of the presence of submarines. In these days, the cruising range of submarines is limited, and how much time does it take to drive a submarine here?

But the facts clearly told the commander that his fleet was being attacked by submarines. Seeing the torpedoes that were splashing and heading straight for the aircraft carrier, the commander shouted: "Send a report!" Let the flying team stationed on the island rush to reinforcements immediately! ”

The fighters that were originally parked on the aircraft carrier all flew to Shillong to carry out bombing missions without exception. At the moment of the fleet, there is no aircraft escort at all. And the sound of explosions on the sea from time to time already told the commander that the fleet was being attacked by a swarm.

When the torpedo hits the deck of the aircraft carrier, it creates a huge shock wave that instantly tears open the deck of the aircraft carrier under the water. The impact force generated by the explosion made the little devils on the aircraft carrier also become crooked.

The little devil who was in charge of the damage said with a frightened face: "The bottom water tank is torn, and it can't be blocked at all!" The bottom water tank must be closed as soon as possible! Otherwise, the ship is in danger of sinking! ”

"Quick! Do everything you can to avoid enemy torpedo strikes! Send a report to the headquarters informing us that our unit has encountered a sneak attack by a large number of submarines. Damn it! Send a report to the flight team stationed on the island and ask it to quickly come for reinforcements! ”

"Yes, General!"

Seeing that the first torpedo hit accurately, Liu Changyuan couldn't help but wave his hand and said, "Beautiful!" Ten meters to the left, ready to launch the two-tube torpedo! Then send a report to the other boats, the four torpedoes have been fired, and immediately dive away and return to the wolf's den! ”

"Yes, Captain!"

With one torpedo after another, shoot at the little devil warship on the sea. The entire sea has become filled with gunsmoke. Some of the Japanese ships that were heavily damaged began to dump and could sink at any time.

And the submarine, which had fired four torpedoes, saw that the target of the attack had not yet sunk, and said with some pity: "If only there were a few more torpedoes!" Damn, I can't see the sinking of the little devil ship! Retract the periscope and get ready to dive! ”

"Retract the periscope and start diving!"

For submariners, every submarine dive means taking a certain amount of risk. Fortunately, from the attack to the dive, they were not counterattacked by the Japanese ships. And what they have to do now is to get out of the warring sea as soon as possible.

Wait for the fighter plane called by the little devil to arrive, and throw bombs into the sea from time to time. If they are not careful, they are in danger of being hit. Once they are hit underwater, their fate awaits them and they are completely sunk into the sea!
