Chapter 105 German submarines fiercely fight the British and American fleets

At this time, the front boat under the seabed is gradually rising, and it is constantly operating with various sonar radar detection instruments. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

After reaching a certain height, it continues at high speed.

"Executive Commander! I'll only give you a maximum of 50 seconds, fire right away! ”

When Captain Heidesh's submarine forces were getting closer and closer to the Anglo-American fleet, he gave the order to attack loudly.

"Yes! Sir! ”

The executive commander, who was in charge of directing the submarine attack, immediately agreed.

He then conveyed the order of Captain Heidersey, and the crews of the submarines were once again readjusting the final direction and range of the attack.

When they found the target using the scope, in just a few tens of seconds, four 4 mines were fired from the bow of the submarine.

The moment the submarines fired their bow torpedoes, all the submarines suddenly shook violently because of the huge recoil.

After the torpedo was fired, when all the personnel were nervous, not far in front of them, a series of fires were heard.

Not more than five ships were torpedoed by them.

And the moment these ships were sunk, Captain Thad led his battleships, and several destroyers immediately reacted; And they turned around one after another, preparing depth charges to fight back.

"There are submarines, it's U-boats of the German army, so the personnel are ready to fight!"

"Prepare for a depth charge!"

"In addition, notify our frigates and the air force to send them over for support!"

"The more Liberators, the better!"

Captain Thad quickly gave the order to his subordinates to fight back.

Moreover, the German submarines were also divided into four subgroups at this time, two of which straddled the course of these British and American ships, and the other two subgroups were discovered along the north and south, each occupying positions.

This was because it was convenient for them to continue to attack the few remaining fleets of Britain and the United States, and it was also easy to intercept the escape of other ships, especially those that wanted to flee to the north and south.

Before waiting for the Anglo-American fleet, when the counterattack was ready; All the German submarine forces had surrounded the British and American fleets.

German submarines swarmed up from all directions in groups of two or five, two or three.

Captain Thad was pale and frightened at this, because he had never tried to be surrounded by so many German submarine forces at one time, and he was eyeing him closely.

At this moment, he felt as if he had rushed into a group of hungry wolves, and he would be torn to pieces by the other party at any time, or even the bones were gone.

The value of battleships has always been questioned, smaller and cheaper submarines; Both torpedoes and aircraft were able to inflict serious damage on battleships.

But even so, Captain Thad was destroyed, so he did not show weakness and did not hesitate to order his fleet to drop all the Hedgehog depth charges.

"Immediately put into combat mode, Executive Commander! Fire! ”

"Torpedo tubes No. 1 and No. 2, fire! Tube Four! Fire! ”

"Two destroyers due south, we are in an attack position, get out of the way!"

"U-553, U-190 go over and support U-126!"

However, at the moment when the British and American fleets successfully launched depth charges, the German army's new-type 'Walter' submarine force was already under the orders of Captain Heidelhi, frequently firing dense torpedoes and attacking the British and American fleets.

"Boom, boom......"

Then there was a louder explosion that shook the sky.

Under the night sky, a fierce and swift naval battle began.

"Depth charge, diving, U-78!"

"Total compromised communications system, continuous depth charges, U-126"

"Attacked by a destroyer, has been urgently dived, U-90."

"Attacked by a destroyer and hit by depth charges at the same time, unable to make an emergency dive! U-238。 ”

At the height of the life-and-death struggle, the Germans had eight submarines sunk and damaged, and were reporting back quickly to Captain Heidelsch.

"Suffered! Captain THAAD: There are quite a few ships in our fleet, which are being hit by German torpedoes! It's sinking! ”

At this moment, Second Lieutenant Lund hurriedly said to his superior, Captain Sade.

"We're going to keep fighting back! If you die, you will also be buried by a submarine of the Dorad army! ”

Captain Thad struggled to calm his emotions and roared loudly in feigned calm.

"But we're only eight ships left! And 2 more were damaged and were stubbornly resisting the German submarine forces! ”

Second Lieutenant Lund said with sincerity and trepidation.

"What about our air force and frigates!"

Captain Thad asked anxiously.

"They haven't arrived yet! As soon as they receive our distress signal, it will take them half an hour to reach here at the earliest! ”

Second Lieutenant Lund replied with an anxious look on his face.

"What! Aren't they in the waters near us? Why did it take so long to come to our aid? ”

Hearing this, Captain Thad roared in shock and anger.

Because for him, it was clear to him that frigates were light surface combat ships with naval guns, depth charges, and anti-submarine torpedoes as their main weapons.

Their main mission is to undertake anti-submarine, escort, patrol, and alert tasks for ship formations, as well as reconnaissance and landing support operations.

But because they came here with 6 destroyers, they didn't bring some frigates to escort them.

Because destroyers are generally used to escort battleships, cruisers or aircraft carrier formations, as well as to undertake anti-aircraft and anti-submarine and night raid missions.

Destroyers had not only artillery installations, but also torpedo armament, which could be used against enemy torpedo boats and other ships.

"Because our reinforcements are now being engaged in a fierce air battle by the German planes that have come to support us; So they can't draw extra frigates to come and support us now! As for the Air Force, they can come to our rescue in small parts! ”

Second Lieutenant Lund hurriedly explained.

"What! The Germans also sent their air forces here? ”

Captain Thad shouted in shock, his eyes wide in shock.

"Boom! Rumble! Boom ......"

But in the midst of this lightning, before Ensign Lund could reply, the battleship on which they were seated; It was hit by several German new 'Walter' submarines, launched by self-guided torpedoes, within 500 meters.

"Oh God! We were hit by the Germans! What do we do now? Captain Taud! ”

Hearing the sound of those violent explosions, Ensign Lund suddenly said in horror with a bloodless face.
