Chapter 612: Little Trouble
"Ordered the JU27 to drop five depth charges at a distance of 100 meters from the unidentified international submarine that was diving, and at the same time to use wireless warning, the next time it was to be dropped around their submarine. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
The general depth charge is 100 kilograms, which is already very powerful, while the heavy depth charge produced in Germany is a 500 kilogram air-dropped model used for the JU27, which can be arbitrarily determined by the JU27 pilot before throwing, which is very convenient and powerful.
After giving the order, Dönitz leaned over a high-powered telescope to look at the situation in the southeast direction, and soon saw five huge columns of water rising into the sky, and a few seconds later there was a dull sound of "boom". At this time, the submarine of the unknown international had no choice but to obediently surface.
"Report to the commander-in-chief, it's an American submarine."
"The direct expulsion is that the United States and Germany are now in peace talks, so don't make any extraneous branches."
Germany's huge carrier fleet continued to sail towards the Arctic Ocean, training and driving away the enemy who had come to reconnoitre, and three days later entered the middle of the Icelandic Sea, at which point Dönitz began to reroute and sail towards Iceland.
Iceland is an island nation in the North Atlantic Ocean, located at the intersection of the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans, and is often considered one of the five Nordic countries. With an area of 103,000 square kilometers and a population of about 320,000, Iceland is the least densely populated country in Europe.
Iceland is a vassal state of Denmark, and Denmark is very close to Britain, and if Dönitz's aircraft carrier group wants to enter the Atlantic, it can only take the shipping route between Iceland and the Faroe Islands, and the distance between Iceland and the British Faroe Islands is about 800 nautical miles.
Dönitz didn't care about that, just continued to hurry while training, whether there were British and Danish troops in Iceland at this time, even if they had planes, only a few reconnaissance planes, and the national defense force was not worth mentioning.
Along the way, Dönitz did not encounter Icelandic and British reconnaissance planes, but met a lot of fishing boats, but Dönitz still did not pay attention to these fishermen and continued to hurry, and time passed day by day, and the aircraft carrier group led by Dönitz went deep into the Atlantic Ocean day by day.
On the morning of 29/42, it had been three days since Dönitz's formation entered the Atlantic, and there were very few ships and planes encountered, and Dönitz deliberately avoided those busy routes. That morning, as soon as it was light, Dönitz summoned the most important responsible persons to a meeting on the Zeppelin aircraft carrier.
When everyone arrived, Dönitz was no longer as amiable as before, but put on a very serious expression and said to his brothers:
"Secret Order of the Führer:"
"Hey! Rommel"
Wait for a few people to finish shouting the slogan, and then continue:
"The implementation of the 'Huhuhu' plan began immediately, with Colonel Dönitz under full command, and no one will be punished for violating the order."
Now the brothers of Dönitz don't dare to joke, everyone knows that this time they came out to carry out a plan, but they still don't know what this plan does.
"Here's a plan, everyone reads it right away, and then tell us what you think?"
After Dönitz finished speaking, he handed Stephen several plans in front of him and asked him to distribute them to his brothers, and the few people who got the plans hurriedly and carefully read them, and after twenty minutes, all of them read the plans.
"Stephen, you're the deputy commander-in-chief, tell me what you think!"
"Yes! Commander-in-chief, this plan is perfect, I think our chances of success are very good, now we are eight hundred and fifty nautical miles from Scarpa Bend, let's turn to sail from now on, by tomorrow morning, we can sail to two hundred to two hundred and fifty nautical miles from Scapa Bend, which is just the best distance for our raid. ”
"What do the other commanders think?"
Schmidt was the commander of the carrier-based aircraft, and he had the right to speak in the air raids, so he took over the conversation and began to express his opinion:
"Commander-in-chief, if our aircraft carrier formation can sail to about two hundred and fifty nautical miles from Scapa Bend tomorrow morning, then all our BF109s will not need to attach auxiliary fuel tanks at all, and directly carry three 100-kilogram aerial bombs, of course, there is no way to deal with battleships with aerial bombs of this level, but it can deal with the enemy's planes on the tarmac, after all, there are six hundred British planes there.
So I suggest that all BF109s take off first, and if they don't join the JU27 formation, they will go straight to the enemy's two military airfields, and then completely destroy all the British planes on the ground, at least we will blow up their runways, so that the British fleet in Scapa Bend will lose all its roadbed aircraft.
After we drop the bomb, the carrier-based aircraft on the British aircraft carrier should also take off, our advanced BF109 is not afraid of the inferior British carrier-based aircraft, at least we will drag them and create an attack opportunity for our successor JU27. ”
"What do you look like?"
"Commander-in-chief, Schmidt is the flight commander, he is an expert in this area, and I think his method should be feasible."
"Alright! Then do as Schmidt said, what else does the others have? ”
"What should we do if we encounter fishing boats on our way?"
This question really tested Dönitz, kill it, it's too inhumane, don't kill it! Afraid of leaking the news, Dönitz wanted to say that he would kill all of them with one shot, but if that happened, Dönitz's heart would be very uneasy, and Dönitz, who thought about it for a while, decided not to kill:
"Send two destroyers and ten assault boats to capture these fishermen! Be hospitable, we are honored soldiers, not heinous pirates. Their fishing boat is scuttled, we can pay them compensation immediately, and when we finish our mission, give them a few lifeboats to go to England! ”
Dönitz, the Chinese who crossed over, is really not a hard-hearted person, maybe Dönitz is not the decisive killing as others say! It may be difficult to achieve great things, but Dönitz always felt that people cannot violate their conscience and conscience, people are watching the sky, and God has the virtue of a good life.
Hahn, Jerry and others talked about the air defense and anti-submarine issues of submarines and destroyers, and the meeting quickly determined the steps for the implementation of the body of "Huhuhu", which is the benefit of brotherly tacit understanding.
The pre-war meeting was short and quick, and the commanders who had finished the meeting quickly returned to their posts, and at the same time the entire aircraft carrier formation began to practice radio silence, even if some of these commanders were British spies, they could not send out the news of the sneak attack.
The entire aircraft carrier formation began to sail at full speed towards Scapa Bend, and the speed of the aircraft carrier formation had reached thirty knots, and in order to achieve this speed, even the modified merchant aircraft carriers were dragging the submarines that surfaced.
