After learning that the British battle patrol detachment was about to escape and that it would take at least an hour for the federal naval aviation to arrive, he and another submarine, the e-019, launched a torpedo attack on the British battle patrol fleet without authorization.
After the e-019 was sunk, he issued an inquiry to his crew. After receiving majority support, this crazy German descendant planned to use his submarine to hit the tail of the British battle cruiser and destroy its propeller.
Or rudder, so that it cannot leave this sea area.
Feeling the coming of death, the already dull submarine became even more dull. Although the spirit of submarine soldiers was tougher than that of ordinary soldiers, there were still a few sailors crying secretly. After all, no matter what the reason, the submarine soldiers were still crying secretly.
Most people are still unwilling to die, but the military regulations of the federal navy
Very strict, especially in the special combat unit of submarine. Here, the captain is God. His orders, whether right or wrong, must be implemented 100%. If anyone disobeys the captain's order, he will be punished.
Treated as treason, what awaits him is a lifetime of hard labor or even execution. The only way to overthrow
The command of the captain can only be temporarily replaced by the unanimous consent of the deputy captain, navigator, engineer officer, boatswain, torpedo officer, communications officer and a special officer translator of the Federal Ministry of the Interior.
, but this has never happened before, including this time, with the translator and boatswain
, with the persistence of the three chief engineers, Captain William was able to retain his command authority, and his order was the final order, whether you like it or not, because the only submachine gun on the boat was currently being held by the boatswain.
In hand, all the doors of the isolation compartment have been closed, and the entire boat is under martial law.
On the sea, although the hydrophone of the British destroyer can hear the special engine sound of a federal submarine, because there are too many ships in this area and the sound is too noisy, it is not yet possible to tell where the submarine is.
.And the British soldiers on the destroyer were also very puzzled. This high-speed rotating sound is usually the sound of a submarine sprinting at full power. And where is the underwater Federation submarine going to sprint?
He soon found out.
"Come up...raise the periscope..." In submarine No. E-021, Captain William held the handle of the periscope with both hands and pointed the crosshair in the periscope at the tail of the battle cruiser less than 100 meters ahead.
This battle cruiser was accelerating after receiving orders from David Betty. Behind it, there were two battle cruisers, which were blocked by it and were still driving slowly, waiting for it to get out of the way.
"Periscope...Periscope..." A British lookout stationed on a nearby destroyer discovered the e-021 submarine's just-raised periscope. The submarine's speed had reached more than 20 knots, and it had raised its usual speed.
The air pipe was turned on, the diesel engine was started, the speed was still increasing, and the periscope stirred up a large amount of water splash, which was difficult to see.
At the front of the fleet, the British sailors on most of the ships spotted the submarine traveling at high speed inside the fleet with its periscope raised. When they saw the submarine's course, they finally understood what the submarine was going to do. It was
To ram the rear of the battle cruiser, if it were to hit it, not only the submarine would suffer
Seriously injured, the propeller and rudder of the battle cruiser were not much better. If the propeller and rudder were damaged, the battle cruiser would lose its ability to travel. Repairing this damage would not only take hours or even months.
Oh my god, it depends on the extent of the injury. You may need to return to the dock for final repair.
I understand, but the British were unable to stop the submarine's desperate move, because in the fleet, the ships were not far apart. Small-caliber guns were powerless against submarines several meters deep under the water, and large-caliber guns had problems with their shooting angles.
, there is no way it can hit so close, and the muzzle cannot be lowered.
"Creak...boom...boom...boom..." Finally, the submarine's head hit the battle cruiser's butt, and with a harsh friction sound, the battle cruiser's propeller moved as expected.
It made close contact with the shell of the submarine, and the huge momentum pushed the propeller directly out of the water. Then the submarine's head hit hard against the tail shell of the battle cruiser.
The submarine's shell was also cut with several large holes by the thick propeller, and was stuck with the propeller. The battle cruiser seemed to have been suddenly pulled on the reins, and it was violently beaten.
The speed dropped directly, and became slower and slower, gliding on the water surface completely relying on inertia.
Count David Betty, who was supported by a sailor and stood on the temporary flagship, looked at this scene from a distance and didn't know how to interpret his current mentality.
At this moment, Earl Betty sincerely lamented that the British Empire seemed to have chosen the wrong opponent this time. The South China Sea Federation, a newly rising Asian country, not only surpassed the Germans in terms of ferocity, but also had one more enemy than the Germans.
One attribute is madness, and Earl Betty feels that the only word that can be used to describe it is madness.
Not only did this country take the initiative to provoke this war with several of the strongest countries in the world at the same time, but after the war began, it showed that it was different. It not only used more advanced submarines, but also used
Those planes are difficult to fathom, making them look extremely ferocious.
And when these submarine commanders used unconventional methods, they risked launching torpedoes at their own fleets, even if they were discovered, and then surfaced to fight for their lives after being injured. In addition, this submarine actually hit it with its own body.
After the battle cruiser's propeller, Count Betty had another feeling. This country was not only ferocious but also crazy.
There are ways to deal with ferocious countries, just like the Germans, the British, the French, the Italians, the Belgians, the Americans, or everyone who needs it, stand together and slowly consume, slowly
Grind, soon, this ferocity will be offset.
With the combination of ferocity and madness, Earl Betty couldn't figure out how to deal with it. He killed a thousand enemies and suffered a loss of 800. This kind of business would not be done by the British, nor by the Americans, nor by any other country.
, unless it is difficult to protect its own country, no country will go to other people's doorsteps to do such desperate things.
Perhaps Count Betty's understanding of madness was not thorough and clear enough. Just after the e-021 submarine hit the battle cruiser and got stuck between the opponent's propeller and rudder, making it unable to move, the submarine suddenly could see with the human eye
The discernible speed slowly expanded, and then a dazzling fire burst out from the front of the submarine, followed by a deafening explosion.
"Oh God... they detonated the torpedo..." The sailor who was standing in the flagship command room supporting Count Betty was stunned by the crazy behavior in front of him. He actually forgot that he was also supporting a man's leg.
The fractured Imperial Marshal actually let go of his hand, crossed himself on his chest, and pointed to the location of the explosion.
Count Betty suddenly lost his support and almost sat down on the ground. Fortunately, there was a command podium next to him. The Count quickly stabilized his body with his left hand. Regardless of the pain caused by the violent exercise, he stared blankly at the rear deck of the battle cruiser.
They were blown away by the explosion, and the sailors standing on the rear deck of the battle patrol were also annihilated by the deck and the fire.
The sudden change caused the entire British battle patrol detachment to be in a moment of sluggishness. The Royal Navy officers and soldiers on the destroyers, cruisers, and battle cruisers were both surprised by the enemy's desperate hand-to-hand combat, and also frightened by the cruelty of this kind of war.
, just when they were confused, another obvious splash of water appeared at the tail of the second battle cruiser and the third battle cruiser, and a periscope with a thick snorkel rose up to the water.
"It's over... We have completely lost... We can't defeat the lunatic with weapons... Notify the ship, ignore the injured battle cruisers, evacuate the personnel on it immediately, then disperse and accelerate, target Colombo, and move on your own
Retreat." Earl Betty seemed to have aged 20 years in an instant, and his voice became softer.
This blow was not only a blow to his confidence, but also a mental one. Not everyone could turn a blind eye to this face-to-face suicidal melee, not only Count Betty, but also the British navy who had experienced this scene.
Officers and soldiers, this cruel feeling will accompany them throughout their lives. (To be continued...)
