Chapter 403: Embrace 2)

The Royal Oak battleship had more than a thousand sailors, and now, there were less than fifty people who were actually on the ship, and they were mainly responsible for operating anti-aircraft guns.

Although we are now relying on smoke screens to protect us, we must also prevent those planes that suddenly fly in, so the anti-aircraft artillery soldiers on the warships are already in place.

The other party's bombing lasted for half an hour. Within this time, it was enough for them to kick up their warships, open the medicine box, shake the handle, and wait for possible attacks.

It is unnecessary for warships to not make fire. They are now equivalent to a fixed turret.

This warship has not many anti-aircraft guns, only 2 mk.1 type 76mm l/50 anti-aircraft guns, 4 3-pound guns, and the air defense firepower is far from that of other battleships.

On an anti-aircraft gun, the gunners were nervously watching the black smoke in the sky. If an airplane suddenly jumped out of the black smoke, they had to open fire without hesitation.

At this time, of course, they all pay attention to the sky above their heads, and no one will pay attention to the sea.

This is common sense. The defense here is quite tight, and it is absolutely impossible for German submarines to sneak in.

They didn't notice that three thousand meters away from the sea, the lens of a periscope that emerged and the snorkel behind the periscope were still emitting a faint blue smoke.

If it weren't for the chaos outside now, Prien wouldn't have been so bold. After all, the snorkel state is best used during the voyage. When the enemy's warship is above the head, using batteries is the most suitable.

But now, Prien was sure that the British, who were blown up from their heads, would not notice their submarine, and maintaining sufficient electricity would make his attack more effective and fast.

If he had just relied on the battery, he would not have run to this corner in such a short time and discovered this warship. Now, time is the result of the warship.

Prien stabilized his submarine and issued an order.

"One second apart, launch!"

Launch! The boat head, four torpedo tubes, released one torpedo at a time. The propeller at the tail rotated, and the electric torpedo slid into the sea water, accelerating the bullet body to 30 knots. This is their highest speed.

"Go forward one, and the right rudder is full." After four torpedoes came out of the water, Prien immediately continued to issue an order.

In the water, the submarine must move to turn. Now, he needs to turn his submarine 180 degrees, aim the tail at the other side, and shoot the fifth torpedo at any time.

The submarine was moving, and the periscope was always aiming at the target. At this time, Prien took a deep breath.

This warship is its own! Be sure to sink it!

"boom!"

A huge explosion came, and the first torpedo hit the target accurately!

As a captain of a submarine, you must be able to hit mobile targets. Now, that static warship is simply a training target. If this is not hit, then you might as well retire and go home to take your child.

The first torpedo exploded at the bottom of the Royal Oak, and the vibration attracted the attention of the sailors.

What's going on?

An anti-aircraft artillery looked back and heard the sound coming from the position of the engine compartment. Could it be that there was a malfunction inside?

At this time, no one realized that he was attacked.

If you want to attack them, you must have an airplane first, but it has always been very quiet here. Since there are no airplanes, it may be that your warship has a mechanical failure.

"Boom!" Then, a second explosion also appeared.

When the second explosion appeared, everyone was not calm. This was definitely not a mechanical failure, it was attacked!

An anti-aircraft gun lookout hand aimed the telescope at the sea surface in front. Soon, he searched for a strange phenomenon on the sea surface. A gust of smoke extended out of a tube on the sea surface, and there was a small tube in front.

Periscope!, that's a submarine!

"Note, we were attacked by a submarine!" the anti-aircraft gun lookout hand shouted loudly.

This is the only thing he can do. They have no anti-submarine means. The warships must be moved to release deep-water bombs.

"Boom!" The third sound followed.

On the shore, Major General Meller was stunned.

The huge explosion also reached the shore. He looked at his Royal Oak battleship, trembling violently during the explosion, and the flames spread out from the battleship. These three explosions seriously damaged his warship!

"Hurry up, rescue our warships!" Major General Meller immediately gave up these bonfires, and his warships had been attacked!

Rescue the warship!

The sailors on the shore ran towards the warship. The warship was hit by a torpedo, and they must have been damaged below. They should quickly close the watertight door to prevent their warship from entering too much and sinking.

Rescue, rescue!

There were only three explosions and one torpedo failed.

Even if it is meticulous maintenance, the torpedo cannot be guaranteed to be 100% effective. Prien looked at the battleship that was emitting smoke on the sea and issued an order unwillingly.

"emission!"

There is also a torpedo at the stern of the ship! With his order, the t2 torpedo was launched again in the launch tube at the stern of the ship!

How many torpedoes can a battleship be hit by? If it is a super torpedo of three hydrogen peroxide, it may be enough. However, the three electric torpedoes that have flew over now are still not powerful enough, and they just hurt the opponent!

In the periscope, Prien looked at his prey, and time was calculated in seconds.

Knocked away.

This torpedo has no effect.

What to do? Looking at the battleship with smoke coming out of the periscope, Prien gritted his teeth: "Go forward one, fill the rudder with the right, the first launch tube, reload the torpedo again!"

In theory, if the submarine fails to hit a single shot, it is time to retreat. And now, the other party must have known his existence. Although he cannot move, it may still pose a threat to the submarine.

However, Prien was not afraid of threats, he was on board with this battleship.

The submarine u-47 carries 14 torpedoes at a time. Now, he has launched 7 of them, and the stock is not large. After fighting this new round, if he has not sunk the opponent yet, he will float up and bombard the opponent with an 88mm deck!

Being able to find such a big goal is definitely a big explosion of character. Now, if you don’t let it dry, how can you be willing?

Prien operated his submarine and completed a beautiful 180-degree steering again. The torpedo tube at the bow of the boat was aimed at the other side again.
Chapter completed!
