Chapter 277: Heavy Blow

American transport fleet.

On the deck of the largest transport ship, many Americans raised their middle fingers at the small Japanese fleet in the distance, and just now they were aimed at one cannon after another.

"Look, little Japan's warships seem to be turning their guns." A sharp-eyed young American pointed to the huge heavy cruiser "Furutaka" in the distance and shouted.

The people on the deck, everyone looked carefully at the warships of the little Japan, and sure enough, these warships of the little Japan were not only turning their muzzles, but also seemed to be turning, as if they were changing direction away from here.

In the captain's room, the middle-aged American captain was holding his telescope and looking at the "Guying", and when he saw that the "Guying" was turning its gun and preparing to leave here, the middle-aged captain quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Being targeted by so many cannons all the time was nothing short of an ordeal for the middle-aged captain.

Just as he was about to put away his binoculars, the middle-aged captain saw an unbelievable sight, a torpedo riding the wind and waves, dragging a long blister, towards the largest small Japanese warship.

"God, that's a torpedo!"

Seeing the exclamation of their captain, the rest of the Americans in the captain's room immediately looked into the distance, and everyone saw a torpedo, which was heading towards the "Furutaka" heavy cruiser at high speed in the morning, and the speed seemed to be very fast.

"God, look over there, there's a torpedo over there, too."

Under the water, several U submarines began to fire torpedoes one after another, and one by one the torpedoes left the torpedo tubes. Fly underwater for a while, approaching the target, just a few meters above the surface. The trajectory of a torpedo can be clearly seen from the sea.

Several U submarines under the surface of the water, floating to a certain height, fired torpedoes one after another at a depth of about several tens of meters, and several of them went straight towards the heavy cruiser "Furutaka".

Little Japan's heavy cruiser "Furutaka" is everyone's key target!

These submarines, immediately after firing the torpedo, began to dive, diving to a safe depth to avoid enemy counterattacks. Then listen to the sound of the explosion by listening to the sonar to determine the outcome of the battle and dodge the attack. Withdraw from the combat area and prepare for a secondary attack.

On the heavy cruiser "Furutaka", naturally there were quite a few little devil sailors who discovered the trajectory of the torpedo, especially at several outposts on the side of the ship. These little devils even screamed in horror.

Masanobu Kimura heard the screams of the little devils. He soon discovered that a torpedo was being fired at his cruiser, and suddenly, Kimura Masanobu's face sank and he shouted anxiously.

"Baga, torpedo, hurry up and get out of the way, hurry up and drip."

The little devil hit the rudder to full capacity and avoided it as fast as he could. The entire heavy cruiser "Furutaka". There was a burst of chickens and dogs, and there was the shouting of little devils everywhere.

The heavy cruiser "Furutaka" was too bulky. Such a huge warship, it is not said that it can be avoided, three torpedoes, one after another hit the target.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

Three huge explosions in succession were heard, causing a splash in the sky, and the three torpedoes exploded one after another at the waterline, and several large holes began in the hull of the "Guying", and suddenly, a large amount of seawater poured into it violently.

Hearing the earth-shattering explosion and clearly feeling the hull of his warship vibrating, Kimura Masanobu's face changed greatly, and according to experience, Kimura Masanobu knew that his cruiser must have been hit by a torpedo.

"Your Excellency, Rear Admiral, no, our warship was hit by three torpedoes, and the hull has already begun to enter the water." A devil officer ran over in embarrassment and shouted with a crying voice.

"Close the sealed cabin, drop the depth charge quickly, and drop the !! quickly"

Kimura Masanobu said that if he did not destroy the Chinese submarines under the water, his warships would all be destroyed. The little devils don't know how many submarines are under the surface of the tunnel, and they don't know anything about the depth and direction of these submarines.

With the mentality of a blind cat encountering a dead mouse, some devil sailors hurriedly threw depth charges into the water, and huge depth charges were constantly thrown into the seawater, and a dull loud noise kept coming up from the bottom of the water.

Throughout World War II, dropping depth charges was the main anti-submarine means.

Depth charges are usually equipped with a depth fuse, which is a main weapon used to attack submarines, and the bomb explodes when it sinks to a certain depth after being put into the water, relying on the strong water pressure generated by the explosion to destroy the shell of the submarine and achieve tactical purposes.

Beneath the surface of the water.

There were a total of six U submarines of the newly formed 6th Army, and each of these six submarines fired one torpedo, four of which were aimed at the cruiser "Furutaka", and two submarines fired one torpedo at a destroyer and one at a shore defense ship.

Three torpedoes hit the cruiser "Furutaka", one torpedo hit the destroyer of Little Japan, a total of six torpedoes were fired, four hit the target, and two missed.

The hunkes had a very high rate of hits, two-thirds of them hit the target, and after these submarines fired their torpedoes, they quickly dived and fled the area.

In a submarine numbered U-002, the fighters all had serious faces, and a few fighters were even a little nervous, this was the first actual combat of the fighters, just now through sonar, the fighters knew that a torpedo they fired had successfully hit the target.

The torpedo hit the target, the soldiers cheered for a while, and not long after, the soldiers in the submarine felt that the whole submarine was shaking, and the explosion was clearly audible, and the explosion was very dull and depressing, and the soldiers knew that this was a small Japan dropping depth charges.

Feeling that their submarine was shaking, the expressions of the soldiers in the boat gradually became serious, and everyone drove the submarine away from this area under dozens of meters of water.

The submarine traveled a long way, and after feeling that the vibration of his submarine was very slight, and the sound of the depth charge was much quieter, the commander of the submarine ordered the submarine to float, and when it reached a certain height, a periscope quietly rose out of the sea.

The rest of the submarines, and the submarine with the number U-002 are about the same. After moving away from the warships of Little Japan, everyone began to observe the situation of the Little Japanese fleet in the distance through the periscope.

The huge heavy cruiser "Furutaka" seemed to be flooding in large numbers, and the little devils on the warship were in a panic. Some of the little devil sailors are still dropping depth charges.

The destroyer, which had a small tonnage and was carved a large hole under the waterline by a torpedo, could even be seen to have tilted slightly. The rest of the warships, surrounding the two warships, were dropping a depth charge from time to time.

American cargo ship.

The middle-aged American captain looked at the little Japanese warship that was hit by a torpedo, and laughed happily, how depressed he was when he was targeted by the little Japanese naval guns just now. I didn't expect to see such a wonderful scene in a short time.

Not only did the captain laugh happily, but some of the American sailors on the cargo ship. Either whistling happily, or making various movements towards the warships of little Japan, some swinging their hips, some pointing towards the middle finger. There are all kinds of actions.

"Furutaka" heavy cruiser. Kimura Masanobu has a black face, and until now, Kimura Masanobu doesn't know where and where these submarines under the water are.

"Your Excellency, our 'Ancient Eagle' has entered a large amount of seawater, and our sealed cabin is of limited use, and it will sink in a few hours."

Hearing the report of the little devil officer, Kimura Masanobu shouted angrily: "Yaga! ”

What a wreck. The little Japanese rear admiral, who had always been arrogant, had nothing to do at this time. I can only watch my warship enter the water in large quantities, and then slowly sink.

After dropping a large number of depth charges, little Japan gradually stopped, and I don't know if the depth charges on the warship were dropped, or if they found that the effect was limited and they consciously stopped.

Seeing that the sound of depth charges in the sea gradually stopped, the submarines that raised their periscopes to reconnoiter in the distance gradually began to dive, and slowly approached the small Japanese warship.

After the soldiers experienced the tension just now, most of the soldiers were in a much better mood, and everyone looked calm, driving their submarines towards the warship of small Japan.

One by one, the submarines began to lock on to the target they wanted to attack, reached the appropriate distance and depth, opened the launch port pressure cover, and after confirming the attack target again, the launch tube was filled with water and stood by.

This is the normal procedure for submarine torpedo launches, according to which one by one the torpedoes are on standby, reaching the firing state, ready to be launched at any time.

The little Japanese fleet in the distance didn't seem to notice the slightest, and the sonar of the little devils didn't seem to notice that another submarine was approaching their warship, and the torpedo tubes were opened, and they were completely on standby.

"Launch !!"

"Launch !!"

……

The commanders of the U submarines gave the order to launch the torpedoes, and one after another the torpedoes flew out of the torpedo tubes and headed for distant targets.

One after another, after a certain period of sailing, the torpedoes gradually revealed their tracks on the water, and the devil sailors on the small Japanese warship, when they saw the torpedoes appearing again, immediately shouted and screamed, and the chickens and dogs jumped in bursts.

Rear Admiral Kimura Masanobu also saw two torpedoes coming towards his heavy cruiser, and in addition, he also spotted a torpedo heading towards a gunboat not far away, and the trajectory of the torpedo seemed to be relatively clear.

Kimura Masanobu saw only a part of the torpedoes, this time, the fighters fired more than a few torpedoes, this time, each submarine fired two or three torpedoes one after another, and the number of torpedoes fired by six submarines reached a dozen.

On the American cargo ship, these American sailors could see more clearly, especially some American sailors who were looking forward to the telescope, and they saw a large number of torpedoes appearing on the surface of the water, and these torpedoes went straight towards the small Japanese warship, and many American sailors were so happy that they whistled vigorously.

Today's three watches, the third watch will be sent.

On duty at night, while on duty while coding words, I admired myself a little, and the three watches were finally written, and I felt relaxed for a while. Actually, today is very busy, and the factory is going crazy to catch up with the task.

Quietly ask, do you have any recommendation votes? Do you have a commuter pass? What about tipping? (To be continued......)
