Chapter 1344: Impatient
The deep bomb was thrown for half an hour, and then it was time to see the results.
The battle against submarines is quite long, and it is more than patience.
When the sound waves of the deep bomb explosion passed, the sonar crews began to work again, and at the same time, the sailors began to carefully observe the sea.
On the surface of the sea, something seems to float up.
There were large patches of oil, a few pieces of rotten wood, and a few boxes of canned food.
"The round of deep bombs we just fired must have blown up their submarine!" On the destroyer Z19 Herman-Kuna, the captain shouted happily over the radio.
"It's true that we bombed a submarine, but we have more than one submarine underwater." On the destroyer Z18 Hans-Lüdmann, Captain Linde shouted: "When we first came, we heard at least two sonar echoes. ”
Linde's brain is very clear, the floating debris below shows that he has indeed blown up one, but underwater, there is more than one, and even if there is only one submarine, it is very troublesome, if you are sailing at high speed, you will lose your attention to the underwater, and when the time comes, the opponent's submarine is easy to give you a surprise attack.
"So what are we going to do?"
"It's very simple, we gradually slow down the power of the turbines, pay attention, slowly, stop in ten minutes." Linde said over the radio to the rest of the warships, at this time, he was the commander of this formation.
"Understood!" The captains of the remaining warships said.
When the underwater explosion is gone, when all the echoes are attenuated, the sonar can work normally again.
Bristov sat on the floor of the conning tower, finished the box of cans, and the strength returned to his body, he walked to the sonar room: "How's the situation outside?" ”
"The fleet of the Germans is leaving." The sonar officer said.
He heard the noise of the fleet on the water, which became smaller and smaller, indicating that the Germans were leaving, and indirectly confirmed his own speculation.
The submarine that came with them had already been sunk, and the German fleet must have found traces of the sinking of the submarine and left.
I came all the way, and I thought that I could touch the main battleship of the Germans to sneak attack, but I was blown up by a depth charge here, how to think about it, how to make people depressed.
"How's our electricity?" Bristov asked.
The submarine is underwater, all rely on batteries, so the bottom of the entire lower part of the submarine is a battery, and even so, the power is quite tight, if you sail at the highest speed underwater, it will consume all the power in that hour.
And now, they are almost silent, so the consumption of electricity is not much.
"Ninety percent remaining." Said a sailor.
"Full speed ahead, we catch up with the warships of the Germans!" Bristov said.
Bristov couldn't hold his breath in the first place.
If he had continued to be silent in the sea and had been able to stay underwater for two or three days with very little electricity, the surface ships of the Germans would have definitely gone.
But now, he wants to catch up!
Because he still remembers the destruction of the Black Sea Fleet, and his mission is to avenge his own fleet!
He had to find the German fleet and destroy each other with his torpedoes, it was his mission, he had no choice!
Now that the German fleet has withdrawn, it means that they must think that this water area is clean, and they can catch up with it and prepare for a sneak attack!
Following his command, the engineer activated the motor in the tail, and in an instant, the entire interior of the cabin was dimmed, and only the sound of splashing water in the tail could be heard.
The submarine is out again!
Bristov did not know, and his judgment was again wrong. However, even if he knew that this was the result, he did not hesitate because he was going to fight!
The submarine moved, and the noise passed through the sea and spread far away.
At this time, the east has gradually revealed the whiteness of the fish's belly.
"Found underwater noise, five nautical miles away, behind us." The sonar officer said.
A smile appeared on Linde's face, and sure enough, the Soviets couldn't hold their breath, thinking that their fleet had slipped away, who would have thought that they would create the illusion of leaving this sea by constantly reducing the power of their engines and finally stopping the propellers?
Now that the Soviets have discovered their submarines, then he doesn't want to leave alive!
"The tail cannon in the back is ready." Linde shouted: "As soon as the periscope of the Soviets is spotted, fire immediately!" ”
To deal with submarines, in addition to anti-submarine depth shells, artillery can also be used, after all, submarines are often in a floating state, and it is easier to greet submarines with artillery.
Now, the submarines of the Soviets must have thought that they were gone, and wanted to catch up in a hurry, their underwater speed was very slow, and if they wanted to chase surface ships, they could only surface and use diesel engines.
If it is a reckless captain, he may directly order to float and quickly start the diesel engine to catch up, and if he is more cautious, he may rise to periscope depth to take a look.
As soon as the opponent's periscope shows its head, start fighting immediately!
They are all ready, and the radar is constantly searching the surface of the sea, as long as the other party shows up, they can find it.
"Listen to the sounds, they are rising from the deep waters." The sonar man continued.
A depth of 100 meters is already the design depth of the submarine, and it is dangerous to sail at this depth, in case of a downward current, the hull may be crushed and exploded, and at the same time, the power of the battery is being consumed rapidly as the submarine travels at high speed.
Bristov was taking his own submarine, catching up and floating as he went along.
The sonar crew did not hear anything, and the surrounding sea was silent, which indicated that the German fleet was far away!
"Attention, prepare to float and start the diesel engine." Bristov shouted.
"Shouldn't we have an observation first?" Hearing him give such an order, the deputy on the side immediately asked.
"We don't have time, it's dawn now, we have to speed up and look for fighters." Bristov said.
Bristov decided to venture afloat, he couldn't wait.
The water tank in front was emptied of seawater, the bow of the boat was cocked, and the M-98 submarine rushed out almost directly under the water, like a dragon out of the water.
The bow of the boat was twenty degrees to the sea surface, and it rushed out of the sea, and on the top of the submarine, countless water outlets began to flow downward.
Almost the conning tower is about to come out of the water, the bow of the boat has fallen, the water splashes, every time the submarine floats this action, it will make people's hearts surge, this action is very enjoyable, completely in line with the style of Lao Maozi.
Everyone has their own task, the hatch in the rear is opened, with the influx of fresh air, the diesel engine is ready to start, the hatch on the conning tower is also opened, the lookout hurriedly came up to lookout, just poked his head out, and immediately shouted in horror: "German battleship, we are surrounded!" ”
