Chapter 482: Two Strikes in the Sky (Plus 1)

The shells, like a torrential rain, hit the Deutschland all around, splashing continuously, but not a single shot hit!

As with firing a tank gun on land, it mainly relies on optical aiming, and it is quite particular to want to hit the target. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Take the tanker as an example, I haven't seen a single commander fire while the tank is still racing, it is absolutely impossible to hit, and within 500 meters, you have to stop and aim.

And now? It was at sea, and the Deutsche in front of it, because of the damage to the power system, moved slowly, only about 10 knots, in this case, its accuracy of firing was undoubtedly higher, and the main target of the Deutschland was the warship that had caught up with itself and appeared on its side.

This makes it easier to play the advantages of the artillery, and at the same time it is easier to aim, you know, sailing in the same direction, the relative speed is the lowest.

At the same time, on the other hand, in the development of sights, German technology is advanced, their optical technology is incomparably advanced, and the sights manufactured are highly accurate.

On the British side, it won't work, the big guys in the back are almost all racing at full power, and in this kind of high-speed sailing, they still want to hit the Deutschland? No kidding, just the left and right shaking of the hull can make the shells empty!

Therefore, Stange is not worried about the other party being able to hit at all.

In fact, in naval battles, it is very common to shoot at each other, and it is really a matter of luck to be able to shoot each other.

In this case, the Deutsche was like God blessed, the first shot hit, which can be explained by luck, and the second time, it actually hit one!

Moreover, all of your own shells were empty.

On the Queen Elizabeth, Admiral Tovey's eyes were on fire, looking at the Deutschland, in the first salvo of his own side, unharmed, his voice appeared on the radio loudly: "Volley, continue to volley!" ”

At this time, what are you waiting for, keep firing and kill the other party!

No one noticed that on the surface of the sea, a small periscope, being baptized by the waves.

The submarine U-47, having fired the first hydrogen peroxide torpedo, made some maneuvers and regained the attack position, and in the periscope, Prien saw the big guy.

There are still six torpedoes on the U-47, of which there is only one T11 torpedo, and there is no need to save it, in the face of a big guy, you have to shoot the torpedo as soon as possible, and get another result!

To deal with merchant ships, there are too many of them, and sometimes the deck guns can be solved directly, but to deal with such a big guy of tens of thousands of tons, it is definitely necessary to attack with all your strength!

One T11 torpedo, three ordinary T2 torpedoes, as the sea water poured into the torpedo tubes, one by one, the torpedoes swam out of the tubes and pounced on the huge battleship.

Among them, the T11 torpedo was the fastest, and soon soared to a maximum speed of 48 knots, and swooped towards the Queen Elizabeth!

During World War I, Germany's submarines were already the most elite, and in World War II, Germany's submarine forces will also play a greater role!

Technically, they had more advanced torpedoes that could tear the bottom of a large battleship!

On the sea, the waves are still turbulent, and the T11 torpedo, which is fixed at a depth of five meters, is sneaking towards the other side.

If you look at it from the outside, it is very peculiar, just like the old saying in China, the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.

The British naval formation, which was besieging the Deutschland, was behind them, and a German submarine was launching a sneak attack on them.

Bubbles emerge from the tail one by one, which is an inevitable disadvantage of the thermodynamic torpedo, it is a hot engine inside, it needs to be exhausted, and if in ordinary situations, these bubbles can easily expose the position of the torpedo.

But now it's different, because now the waves are rolling on the surface of the sea, and the waves are flying several meters high, and in this case, the situation five meters below the surface of the sea, is not visible at all!

The periscope was also constantly blocked by the waves, and Major Prien's eyes were glued to see if the target could be sunk by himself.

It's not good, the other party is slowing down!

Prien's heart sank, just now, the other party was in high-speed pursuit, and he set his own torpedo launch according to the other party's speed, but now, the other party has slowed down.

The new generation of torpedoes is still under development, and the current torpedoes still do not have advanced guidance systems, most of them are self-propelled torpedoes, that is to say, when the torpedo is launched, it is to sail in a straight line, the same as the bullet fired by a pistol.

But now, the other side has slowed down!

The fastest T11 torpedo swam away in front of the opponent in this way, and this precious torpedo did not get results!

The second torpedo also swam away from the front of the opponent, and both torpedoes were scrapped.

"Boom!" The third torpedo, which finally met the other side, had an explosion at the bow of the opposing ship.

This explosion stunned the British, and at this time, the entire British fleet was slowing down in order to have a higher accuracy to strike the Deutschland.

But now, the Queen Elizabeth was actually shot, and the muzzle of the Deutschland was not aimed at it, which means that the other side has other means of attack!

"Watch out for the submarines of the Germans!" Admiral Tovey said.

He understood immediately, as the hull swayed, he knew that he had been torpedoed, but now, when his alarm was sounded, he was still in a dilemma.

Anti-ship and anti-submarine are different, now they are anti-ship, a column, if they want to switch to anti-submarine, then they need to continue to reduce their speed, and even carry out a Z-shaped route to repeatedly release anti-submarine deep bombs, in this case, the Deutschland escapes.

It is obvious that the submarines of the Germans are here to relieve the Deutschland!

"Boom!" The explosion of the second sound, followed by the first sound, and the explosion of two torpedoes, brought some damage to the Queen Elizabeth, but, with the rapid progress of the damage management, this battleship, after carrying two torpedoes, was still able to hold on!

"Order the Birmingham, withdraw from the pursuit formation, conduct anti-submarine warfare, and find out the submarines of the Germans!" Admiral Tovey's order was quick: "The rest of the warships, salvo!" ”

The speed was fast just now, but the results were all flying, and this time I slowed down, and I definitely can't let it go!

"Boom, boom!" Relying on the high rate of fire, the shooting of the Deutschland began again, this time, aiming at the cruiser Southampton.

Whoever rushes up will be beaten!
