Underwater in the Atlantic, a huge figure slowly sailed by. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is the German submarine Seawolf I, which the Germans called a ghost.

At this moment, there was a pleasant atmosphere in the Seawolf submarine, mixed with the smell of the spirits of the German Empire.

"Cheers! For the German Reich! ”

"Cheers! For the high seas fleet! ”

"Cheers! For Simon! ”

……

The German soldiers of the Seawolf submarine were cheering to their heart's content, since the incident in the English Channel, the German Imperial High Seas Fleet has been bullied by the Chinese Imperial Navy and ridiculed by all countries in the world, which makes the German Navy hate.

The appearance of the Seawolf 1 not only sank the merchant ships of the Chinese Empire, but also sank a warship of the Chinese Imperial Navy, and this battleship was a destroyer used for anti-submarine purposes, which made the German Navy Tutuo Tuo Dou excited for a long time, and it is still celebrating.

Major Simon, the commander of the Seawolf submarine, had just been promoted in rank and celebrated with his men.

"Report to the chief, the wolf's den is dense!"

Simon put down his glass, took the code, and then went back to his room to find the codebook to decrypt, and then got the order from the wolf's den.

After burning the secret message, Simon returned to the command cabin and announced to his subordinates in a serious manner.

"Gentlemen, I just received a secret telegram from the wolf's den, and a prince of the Chinese Empire has just been transferred to the Atlantic Fleet Seahawk 328 ship for service. The Wolf's Lair ordered us to sink this warship if possible, which would be the heaviest blow to the Chinese Empire, and to raise our eyebrows for the Imperial German Navy. ”

Hearing Simon's words, all the soldiers cheered and cheered.

However, some people questioned that there were many princes in the Chinese Empire, and even if one was killed, it could not be regarded as a heavy blow.

Simon then explained: "Gentlemen may not know, this prince is the youngest son of the Empress of the Imperial Palace of the Chinese Empire, and the significance of killing him is far more serious than that of the princes born to other concubines, which is enough to make the Chinese Empire understand that the time has come for the rise of the navy of our German Empire." ”

It turned out that the youngest son of Empress Shogu, the German soldiers, had finally figured it out, and they were completely excited.

In this way, the Seawolf 1 submarine, which originally planned to return to the sea, decided to attack the Chinese Imperial warship Seahawk 328 by the way, and if it succeeded, it would be the best, and there would be no loss if it did not succeed.

But what Simon never expected was that he was too arrogant, and he didn't know that at this moment, the thirty-first prince of the Chinese Empire was laying out a net.

That's right, it is a net that is being set up, specially used to search for the German Seawolf 1 submarine.

It turned out that the Prince Keqin's service in the Atlantic Fleet was not accidental, but had a strong and clear purpose.

It is true that he is studying the topic of anti-submarine tactics as his graduation thesis, but the sonar array is not his invention, but Li Weiguo, when he gave a lecture to his children, pointed out the disadvantages of the current anti-submarine sonar, as well as the advantages of towed sonar and sonar arrays in the future.

The Imperial Chinese Naval Armament Committee has obtained from the Imperial Academy of Sciences the metal deposit detector invented by Tesla, which is equipped with the most sensitive electrical components of the Chinese Empire at present, and can be used to detect submarines under the sea surface as long as it is slightly modified, because even if the submarine is well camouflaged, it is also made of metal, and there must be a huge metal reaction signal, which can be detected.

The problem is that the Imperial Chinese Navy wants to kill the German ghost submarine as soon as possible, and the sonar equipment of the existing anti-submarine destroyers has been installed and fixed, and if you want to rearrange it, you need to return to the shipyard for major renovations, and it is quite time-consuming.

In the lectures of his father, Emperor Li Weiguo, Prince Keqin has always been very interested in sonar arrays, and he happened to be in the period of training at the grassroots level, and the Admiralty of the Chinese Empire was also thinking about how to hook up with the ghost submarines of the German army, so as to trap them, so he used his calculations on Prince Keqin.

Although this is a great disrespect to the royal family, politicians don't care about this, they only look at the results, as for the use of the prince of Keqin, as long as the matter is successful, it can be forgiven if he explains to Emperor Li Weiguo.

Of course, the most important thing is that the parties themselves do not object. If Prince Keqin objected, even the Imperial Admiralty would not dare to carry out this plan.

It was precisely because Prince Keqin himself wanted to do a big thing and prove his strength in front of his father that he hit it off and cooperated with the Admiralty.

All of this is a very confidential matter, and even Tan Lin, the captain of the 328 ship, doesn't know that he has become a decoy now.

Soon, the towed sonar was thrown into the sea, and it was towed forward by the 328 ship.

With the towed sonar, the sonar soldiers clearly felt that the interference sound was greatly reduced, and they could even hear the breathing of the ocean.

"Record the current noise data and calibrate it to the ocean's own noise!"

As a trainee staff officer, Prince Keqin is in charge of the sonar room, and what he has to do now is to correct the basic data of the sonar system, which needs to be based on the ocean noise, and use the ocean's own noise as a reference point for voiceprint sampling, once an abnormality is found, it is necessary to be vigilant.

"Record the current sea magnetic field environmental data and calibrate it as the ocean's own magnetic field!"

Not only the noise of the ocean itself is calibrated, but also the magnetic field data of the current sea area is calibrated, and only when the magnetic field data is fully calibrated, once the foreign submarine enters the sea area, it will produce a change in magnetic field induction, then it will be discovered.

Looking at Prince Keqin's meticulous work, Tan Lin became more and more excited, he felt that he should put the treasure on Prince Keqin, maybe he would be able to rise to prominence in the future.

With Tan Lin's active cooperation, the sonar sampling data of the Haiying 328 ship was quickly completed, and a new anti-submarine detection system was quickly established.

"Abnormal magnetic signal found! Notification from superiors! ”

The sudden report made Tan Lin instantly nervous.

"Battle Alert!"

"Ready!"

Prince Keqin hurriedly took the headset, and at the same time ordered the active sonar detection to turn on and scan the abnormal area of the magnetic signal.

The new sonar array, without the influence of the wake of the battleship and the noise of the hull, has become very sensitive to sound.

Soon Prince Keqin heard an unusual sound.

"It's propeller noise! Strengthen the search for the 21st district of Ding! ”

"Re-scan District 21!"

"Position 2 found that the noise is abnormal!"

"Position 3 found that the noise is abnormal!"

"Position 1 found that the noise is abnormal!"

"Anomaly Noise Source Locked!"

"Azimuth 135, Distance 800, Depth 50!"

"The magnetic field reflection is abnormal, large marine life is excluded, and the target is judged to be a submarine!"

"Start identifying friend or foe and confirm the identity of the submarine!"

"This is the 11th Destroyer Fleet of the Atlantic Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy, the ship Haiying 328, your submarine has entered the anti-submarine identification zone of this ship, please identify yourself immediately! Otherwise the ship will act by force! ”

"Repeat, your submarine has entered the anti-submarine identification zone of this ship, please identify yourself immediately! Otherwise the ship will act by force! ”

Prince Keqin issued a warning in the form of the Chinese Imperial Navy's clear code communication, the Chinese Empire's standard is the international standard, and the navies of all countries currently define the Chinese Imperial Navy's clear code communication as an international standard and implement it.

At this moment, there is indeed a submarine under the surface of the sea that is approaching the Seahawk 328, but this submarine is not an enemy, but a Swordfish-class submarine 848 belonging to the Atlantic Fleet.

The submarine No. 848 was ordered to sneak and try to get close to the Seahawk 328 ship to test the performance of the 328 ship's new anti-submarine towed sonar, but it was discovered as soon as it entered the opponent's anti-submarine identification zone.

"! Really bit back! ”

The commander of the submarine No. 848 cursed, knowing that he had been discovered, and it was no longer interesting to sneak around, so he took the initiative to surface the sea and identified himself.

It turned out to be a false alarm, and the officers and men of the entire 328 ship breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the German mysterious submarine was coming again, and they were all startled.

Prince Keqin smiled, he knew that the Navy's Atlantic Fleet would arrange submarines to come to test it, and he was worried that his anti-submarine sonar tactics would be embarrassing if he could not find his opponent, but now it seems that he has won the first battle, and he is suddenly full of confidence.

"Congratulations Comrade Li Qin, the towed sonar system you developed is very effective!"

Li Qin was the pseudonym of Prince Keqin, and he hurriedly said modestly: "Thank you Captain for the compliment!" However, just because we're able to spot the Swordfish-class submarines doesn't necessarily mean that we can also spot the German ghost submarines! ”

Tan Lin nodded and said, "Just do your best!" I believe that with the scientific strength and technical level of the empire, a way to restrain it will soon be found! ”

This is the big truth, if the Chinese Empire wants to do one thing with its heart, with its huge economic and industrial strength, plus the abundance of talents, nothing is impossible.

However, neither Tan Lin nor Prince Keqin expected that the clear code communication just now had exposed the location of the Seahawk 328 ship.

Eighty nautical miles away from the Seahawk 328, the German Seawolf 1 submarine is carefully diving.

During daytime operations, the Seawolf submarine did not dare to surface, because the Imperial Chinese Navy had many aircraft carriers, and as many as eight were deployed in the Atlantic Fleet.

Every daytime, there will be reconnaissance planes of the Imperial Chinese Navy Air Force taking off from aircraft carriers to conduct air patrols over the Atlantic, and once a German submarine is discovered, a large number of warships of the Imperial Chinese Navy will soon come to besiege it.

Therefore, as the commander of the Seawolf 1 submarine, Simon was very cautious, never floated during the day, and always maintained a very low speed to dive, so as to minimize the noise of the sailing propeller and prevent it from being detected by the sonar of the Chinese Imperial Navy, and did not dare to surface to charge and ventilate the submarine until night.

This time, Simon just wanted to try his luck and see if he could hold out for another day with the only fuel and supplies he had, and then find a chance to take out the Seahawk 328 and return home.

In the communication room of the Seawolf No. 1 submarine, there has always been a radio station that is turned on, but this radio station is not used to contact the wolf's den, but is used to listen to the unencrypted public channels of the Imperial Chinese Navy, so that you can know if there are any warships of the Imperial Chinese Navy cruising nearby.

As a result, Simon heard the public broadcast of the Seahawk 328 ship in the clear code communication, and because the technical level of the German radio station was backward, if the distance was more than 100 nautical miles, the radio signal could not be heard, so Simon judged that the Seahawk 328 ship was nearby.

For a while, the German sailors in the Seawolf 1 submarine were excited, ready to find out the location of the Seahawk 328 and sink it.

The Seawolf No. 1 submarine quietly stretched out its periscope, determined its bearing and course, and began to search for the location of the Seahawk 328.

A few hours later, the Seawolf finally miraculously discovered the Seahawk 328.

Simon was so excited that he immediately gave the order to fight.

"It's sure it's the Sea Hawk 328 ship, ready to attack!"

"Yes! Fish radium ready! ”

"Azimuth 070, ruler 1200 meters, fixed depth 3 meters!"

"Ray No. 1 is ready!"

"Ray No. 2 ready!"

Simon looked at the Sea Hawk 328 ship in the periscope, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and said with a smile: "What a beautiful battleship!" It's a pity that it's not from our German Empire! ”

This almost speaks to the hearts of all German soldiers, every time they see the warships of the Chinese Empire, their first impression is not their powerful weapons, but their beautiful appearance, gray paint, and so beautiful on the sea.

In order not to be discovered, Simon quickly put down his periscope and pulled out his pocket watch.

"Attack!"

The moment the order was given, Simon pressed the pocket watch timer to start the timer.

All the German sailors held their breath and waited silently for the sound of the explosion to return.

At the same time, an alarm was also heard in the sonar room of the Seahawk 328 ship.

"Report, anomalous sound approaching at high speed!"

When Prince Keqin heard this, he hurriedly picked up the earpiece, and his face was instantly shocked.

"It's fish radium!"

"Battle alert! Superiors report, emergency avoidance! ”

A hurried alarm sounded, and the first officer on duty urgently ordered evasion.

The 328 ship is the most advanced destroyer of the Imperial Chinese Navy, with extremely high maneuverability, and because Prince Keqin has just adopted a towed sonar array, there is no warship and propeller wake noise, plus the newly replaced high-sensitivity components, so it can detect the sound of the approaching fish and radium in advance.

These factors saved the fate of the 328 ship being sunk and also saved the lives of more than 100 officers and men on the ship, after all, two 533 mm fish and radium are enough to blow up a destroyer of more than 1,000 tons.

Prince Keqin judged the direction of the attack of the fish and radium, so the 328 ship evaded in advance and dodged the attack of the two fish and radium.

When Tan Lin arrived at the bridge, everyone was in a cold sweat.

"What's the situation, where did the fish radium come from?"

Prince Keqin said: "It's the ghost submarine of the German army, just nearby, according to the trajectory of Fish Radium, one kilometer to the southeast!" ”

Tan Lin was immediately overjoyed: "Great! It's been a long time since I was looking for my grandson! Finally, we can avenge our fallen comrades and compatriots! ”

"Pass my orders, anti-submarine warfare!"

"Another report from the superiors requesting urgent reinforcements from colleagues near Xin 55 District!"

The German Seawolf was discovered, and the news quickly spread throughout the Atlantic Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy, and even Li Weijun, who was sitting in Europe, personally sent a telegram to order the entire Atlantic Fleet to rush out and kill the German ghost submarine.

The entire Atlantic Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy was dispatched, but at this time, the German Seawolf submarine was still excitedly waiting for the explosion from the No. 328 battleship.

As the clock ticked by, Simon's expression changed from excitement to confusion, then surprise and unease.

"Why haven't you heard an explosion yet?"

Not only Simon, but all German sailors were suspicious.

Simon then raised his periscope, and was horrified when he saw it.
