"What? You repeat! Two hours later, Bernd and his sailors were rescued by the patrolling cruiser Ereli. Hearing Bernd's explanation, the captain of the Ereli, Tugai, thought it was incredible, and he could not tolerate such a hijacking of a merchant ship right under his nose.

"Where was your ship hijacked? What is the maximum speed? Did you see which direction they were sailing? Tugayi came to the chart and began to calculate the possibility of catching up with the other party.

"It should be this position!" Bernd pointed to the charts, "My 'Hailar' has a top speed of 18 knots when fully loaded with cargo, and I see them sailing east!" ”

"Full speed pursuit!" Bernd threw down the compass and shouted loudly.

"Hahahaha! Cheers! Cassandra, the crowd is celebrating the success of the first "robbery".

"General Ozturk, your method really works! Drive the ship a few nautical miles east in front of the sailors before going back to the north! That's amazing! We returned to the port without seeing a shadow of the Turkish warship! Captain Philip raised his glass and said that he and Ozturk were both responsible for the operation.

"Presumably the Turkish captain's nose is crooked!" Kemal was also very happy, and the large amount of funds and goods on the ship greatly alleviated his urgent needs, "Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, we keep the money on the ship, I think those goods can be brought back to Germany by your freighter, and some of the military expenses can be repaid!" ”

Oli nodded in agreement, the Turkish Navy was not yet arrogant enough to dare to inspect German steamers. "But what about the 'Hailar'?"

Kemal looked at Ozturk, "Drive back to the sea, of course, and let it float on its own!" Hahaha......"

A week later, the Turkish Navy spotted the empty "Hailar" at sea. It was not only the captain of the Ereli, Tugai, who crooked his nose, but also the owner of the ship, Councilor Yumit, who gritted his teeth. He pressured the Navy through Congress to find out as soon as possible, and reactionary spies were sent around to search for the whereabouts of the missing goods, but unfortunately they could not find anything.

A month later, Captain Philip again led a team to "rob" the merchant ships "Aken" and "Sinop", and the simple but effective misdirection tactic caused the Turkish Navy to miss twice in a row. The poor Turks finally realized that when the fourth merchant ship, the Finikai, was taken, they finally divided their forces to search in different directions.

"Humph! These cunning pirates must make them feel good if they are caught by me! Tugaj said viciously, and he and his cruiser Ereli pursued north this time. When night was about to fall, he finally saw the lonely figure of the "Finikai" through the telescope, "Baby, so you are here!" I'm good to find! ”

"Baby, you're finally here! Let me kiss it! Within a nautical mile to the left of the Erelly, Captain Philippe stared at the periscope and muttered softly.

Two torpedoes silently ran towards the Ereli with white spray.

Rumble...... Rumble......

The Herreli was torpedoed in the bow and center, and a huge column of water was stirred up on the side side, and then the hull began to tilt, and five minutes later, as the sailors jumped away, the 9,000-ton Turkish cruiser sank into the blue-black waves. Although the "Finikai" in the distance left some lifeboats and lifebuoys behind, more than 200 Turkish sailors were still buried in the belly of the fish.

In the icy waters, Tugayi thought that his warship had hit a mine, but he did not give up, and the icy waters allowed him to come up with a brilliant idea.

On a drizzly evening, a lone merchant ship sailed on the Aegean Sea, the deck of which was covered with a thick canvas that seemed to be cargo that could not be caught in the rain. In the command room, a middle-aged man was obscenely observing the sea around him, this guy was Tugayi who had been soaking in the sea for more than an hour two months ago. He hid a few cannons on the merchant ship, ready to fight Captain Philip's submarines. But it's been a month, and his goal hasn't appeared for a long time, making him so impatient that it doesn't taste good.

At this time, the sailors on the watchtower suddenly reported that there was a situation in front of the right, and Tugay saw a strange-looking thing floating from the sea through the binoculars, and he hurriedly ordered the sailors to prepare, "Quick! Lift off the canvas and get ready for the cannon! ”

On the submarine not far away, Captain Philip also saw the strange situation of the merchant ship through the binoculars, but a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"There's a cannon hidden, do they think they'll kill us? The bow torpedo was launched immediately! ”

Laugh at......

Only one torpedo was strung out of the bow of the submarine.

"Captain! One of the torpedo tubes malfunctioned! "The torpedo room reported.

"Hurry up and fix it!" Captain Philip shouted downwards, now there is only hope that this torpedo will hit the target.

Tugai on the merchant ship opposite also spotted the torpedo, but there was no time to turn to dodge, he closed his eyes and began to ask Allah to bless him.

One second...... Two seconds...... More than ten seconds passed, and Tugay opened his eyes, and he was actually alive and well, and on the other side of the ship, the torpedo sped away.

"Damn! It must have been that the ship had too shallow draft and the torpedo was set too deep! Philip was very annoyed, the drizzling weather affected his vision, so that he did not notice that the boat was not loaded with heavy loads at all, and that the torpedo had just gone through the bottom of the boat, and it was the roof leak that happened to rain overnight.

"Deck cannon ready!" Philip had no choice but to get the sailors back on deck, it was not in his character to escape, and besides, he didn't think that a few cannons on board would hit a submarine as small as his own.

Boom...... Boom......

Several columns of water rose at a great distance from him, and he mocked contemptuously at the artillery skills of the Turkish soldiers.

Rumble!

The rapid-fire guns on the submarine hit the huge merchant ship not far away, but it hit the side of the ship and did not cause any damage to the people on board.

"Aim at their command room and hit!" At this point, Philip was no longer planning to capture the merchant ship, and besides, there should be nothing of value on it.

Rumble!

The second shot hit the command room on the front of the merchant ship, and the lucky Tugai had already run to the deck to direct the sailors to open fire, and looking at the command room with billowing smoke, he also knelt down again to thank Allah for his blessing.

Although there were far more guns on merchant ships than on submarines, the superiority of rapid-fire guns on submarines in speed and accuracy compensated for the lack of numbers, and the two sides fired fiercely at each other.

Rumble......

Smoke finally rose from the deck of the merchant ship, and the shells piled up next to the guns ignited and exploded violently, but the Turkish warships had already arrived.

"Quick! Dive! Philip also spotted a column of smoke in the distance.

It was the Turkish Navy's only remaining cruiser, the Bursa, that came to the rescue. With a displacement of only 8,500 tons, the Bursa is slightly smaller than the previously sunken cruiser Ereli, but it is smaller and faster than the Ereli. What's more, the captain of the Bursa, Izet, was not as hasty as Tugay, he had long guessed that it was a submarine that attacked the merchant ship, and he knew that the submarine would need to surface every once in a while. So after Philip's U-006 dived, he did not stop to aid Tugaj's merchant ships, but searched eastward. When U-006 floated up to recharge, he did not force it to attack, but watched from afar. Ezert's goal is to follow U-006 and find its lair.

"Okay! If it wants to stalk us, then we'll give it a little bit of power! Philip also found out what the motives of the Bursa, who had been following him, and he decided to turn around and take out the Turkish cruiser. However, to his dismay, the torpedo tube that had failed at the bow had to be repaired back to Cassandra.

"All ready to dive! Depth 10 meters! After charging up, Philip quietly drove towards the Bursa with his U-006.

"Target distance, 2000 yards! 1/3 speed forward! ”

"Target distance, 1500 yards! Stop the car! ”

"Target distance, 1000 yards, torpedo ready!"

"Target distance, 600 yards, torpedo launch!"

A white torpedo track appeared on the surface of the sea.

"Right full rudder!" Izette spotted the torpedo fired by the U-006 and directed the Bursa to make a quick turn.

"Put away the periscope and go full speed!" Philip helplessly pounded the bulkhead, and the Bursa actually dodged its own torpedo with ease. If it weren't for the broken torpedo tube in the bow, if it weren't for the U-007 engine overhaul today, the cruiser wouldn't have been arrogant here.

"Turn 15 degrees to the right and the stern torpedo is ready!" Philip decided to try again.

Five minutes later, the torpedo grazed the starboard side of the Bursa.

Soon after, however, it became dark, and the captain of the Bursa, Izet, fearing that he would not be able to see the torpedo track at night, ordered him to return. Philip also returned to Cassandra with a stomach full of resentment.

A few months later, the reactionary government discovered the submarine docked in the port of Cassandra through spy infiltration, and then sent a naval fleet led by the Bursa to attack Cassandra in order to eliminate the threat of this submarine force to the Aegean Sea route.

The battle of Cassandra is on the verge of breaking out.
