Chapter 654 Decisive Battle Between Sea and Air in the Atlantic Ocean
"drop!!!"
"drop!!!"
Under the sea of Lombax Bay, a submarine belonging to the Third Submarine Fleet of the Imperial Navy Naval Atlantic Fleet, the Perch, is on duty on combat.
The sonar waves launched from the Perch submarine are detecting nearby waters, and the surrounding sea conditions are quickly summarized on the electronic display screen of the reconnaissance room.
"Radar reflection is normal!"
"Sonar reflection is normal!"
“The radio signal is normal!”
...
Reports from various departments finally gathered in the captain's command room. Lieutenant Colonel Huang Feihu, the captain of the perch, just nodded slightly, but did not relax his vigilance.
"Keep alert!"
Since receiving an order from the Chinese Empire Atlantic Fleet Command yesterday, Huang Feihu has directed the Perch submarine to rush to the waters near Lumbax Bay.
It turned out that after the Royal Navy submarine fleet was attacked by the Luftwaffe yesterday, the British authorities quickly reported to the Joint ** Command because such a thing had never happened before.
General Cai E, the commander-in-chief of the United **, attached great importance to this matter. In his eyes, even the Tang-class and Tang-class modified submarines exported to Britain, their performance is very strong and it is difficult to be destroyed by the German anti-submarine warships, not to mention that a submarine fleet was almost wiped out by German anti-submarine aircraft.
Although Cai E strategically despises the Germans, he still attaches great importance to the Germans tactically. His first reaction to this matter was that the Germans had new secret weapons.
Cai E quickly spoke to the Navy of the Empire. The Navy of the Empire was also very shocked by this matter, but they soon told Cai E a shocking news that it was not impossible for anti-submarine aircraft to destroy Tang-class submarines. It is entirely possible for aircraft with magnetic differential detection devices to discover the whereabouts of Tang-class submarines, and even Song-class submarines are difficult to get rid of the detection of such devices.
However, the Imperial Navy denied that the magnetic abnormality detection technology inside the navy was leaked, believing that it was just a German who happened to be lucky.
But for Cai E, all his energy at this time was focused on annihilation of the German high seas fleet and carrying out large-scale counterattack and landing operations in Europe. He did not want any mistakes.
In order to ensure the completeness, Cai E had a phone call with General Li Dingxin, the commander of the Atlantic Fleet, who agreed to send a Song-class submarine to the waters where the accident occurred to investigate the situation.
"Sir, can the Germans really detect us?"
"Although it is not certain yet. However, it is true that the British submarine fleet suffered a loss. Let's come and investigate whether there is any precaution."
"It's probably because the British were stunned by the Germans!"
The officers and soldiers laughed and looked down upon it.
"Sonar echo abnormal!"
The report from the sonar room immediately calmed everyone down.
“Sonar Report!”
"210-185-45. Discover a submarine!"
"Distinguish the identity!"
"The target submarine is a Tang-class submarine, and it issues an enemy-to-eight identification code!"
"The reply is correct, it is an ally British submarine Maria!"
"Lt. Col. David, the captain of the Mary, requested a call with the magistrate!"
Huang Feihu nodded and picked up the phone. The communications soldier connected to the Allied Fleet Channel, and Huang Feihu then spoke with David.
"Lieutenant Colonel Huang, you came too timely. Our submarine suffered heavy losses. Please take over our defense zone quickly and teach the Germans a lesson!"
"Lt. Colonel David. I think you may have misunderstood. I am not here to take over your defense. But I am willing to teach you a lesson in the hateful Germans!"
"Ltd. Colonel Huang, I didn't understand what you mean. Aren't you here to reinforce us?"
"I'm sorry! I haven't received such an order! I was ordered to investigate the attack on your army by the Luftwaffe yesterday. Please tell me in detail about what happened yesterday!"
"Don't tell me that only your submarine is here!"
"As you wish! Only my bass number!"
"Oh. My God!"
The other party was obviously very surprised and quickly replied: "You are so confident! As the Allies, I have to remind you that Lt. Col. Huang, the damn German planes are very different from before. Their planes can easily find you and attack you until they sink."
"Lt. Col. David, you are too exaggerating! You know, our submarines have never lost since the day they were in service, and the enemy has never discovered us."
"I know your Song-class submarine is very strong, known as the ocean black hole. But I still sincerely advise you that we have already tasted the pain. I hope I won't let me see you floating on the sea."
"That's probably going to disappoint you, it's absolutely impossible!"
"Good luck! It's over!"
"Thank you! It's over!"
Not long after the call, the telecommunications room received an encrypted telegram from David, which naturally contained a detailed record of the British submarine fleet being attacked by German anti-submarine aircraft yesterday.
Huang Feihu looked carefully twice and then fell into deep thought.
It is undeniable that the attack on the British submarine fleet this time was not caused by the British operational error, but the German anti-submarine aircraft did have new tactics or equipment.
"Report, this ship is exposed to unknown signals!"
Huang Feihu suddenly felt nervous and asked quickly: "Report the situation!"
"Searching for unknown illumination signal sources!"
"No unknown source of the signal was found!"
Huang Feihu immediately said: "It's an airplane! It must be a German anti-submarine aircraft!"
It has to be said that Huang Feihu's rich experience made him immediately determine that the unknown illumination signal came from the air, because only the illumination signal sent by the plane in the air when it moves quickly will make the submarine unable to lock the signal source.
"The periscope report shows that two German aircraft were found in the 120 direction and it was determined to be anti-submarine aircraft."
"Retract the periscope, dive 50 meters, and move forward at full speed!"
"Sir, did the enemy plane discover us?"
"It shouldn't be there. I guess I've discovered the British submarine. Don't panic!"
Huang Feihu denied it, but he was not sure in his heart.
"The illumination signal continues to increase!"
"Enemy planes are approaching us!"
"Left rudder 15, dive to 100 meters, and move forward at half speed!"
Huang Feihu calmly gave the order and prayed: "The enemy planes cannot find us!"
"The illumination signal continues to increase!"
"The enemy is firing deep water bombs!"
"270-88-39, it's Maria!"
The sonar troops detected the location of the German aircraft dropping bombs, which happened to be the lurking location of the British submarine Maria.
There were loud noises under the water, and the sonar soldiers of the Perch continued to report the situation to Huang Feihu.
"The Maria was shot!"
Huang Feihu and the officers and soldiers of the entire boat were stunned. If they had not believed the British's nonsense before, then they had believed more than half of them at this moment. Although they still did not believe that the German planes could find the Perch submarine, they believed that the Germans' anti-submarine strength had improved a lot, which was inevitable.
"The illumination signal weakens, and the enemy plane is leaving!"
Huang Feihu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the German anti-submarine aircraft had not yet discovered the Perch. The officers and soldiers of the boat also cheered, proud to be able to serve on the powerful Song-class submarine.
Without discovering the enemy, Huang Feihu was a little disappointed.
"Prepare to float up, and see if there are no survivors in the Maria!"
Just as the bass was about to float, an alarm came from the detection room again.
"The illumination signal is rapidly increasing, and the enemy plane is back."
It turned out that the two German Junker anti-submarine aircraft had discovered suspicious situations just now, but the British submarine Maria was the back. The violent explosion of Maria made the nearby electromagnetic signals chaotic, making it impossible for the German anti-submarine aircraft to detect for the time being. Therefore, the German aircraft flew away for a while, and returned again after the electromagnetic signal stabilized.
Two German anti-submarine aircraft have discovered the Perch. After all, the Perch has a displacement of more than 3,000 tons and a huge hull. The electromagnetic signal of the hull for a long time is very strong, and it is easy to be discovered by the magnetic detector of the German anti-submarine aircraft.
"Stop floating! Speed is reduced by half!"
The Perch continued to stay 100 meters deep underwater, with a speed of halved, aiming to reduce noise. Huang Feihu also believed that the Germans had put on sonar buoys and other things and searched for the Perch based on ocean noise.
"The illumination signal continues to increase, and enemy planes are approaching!"
"Shut down!"
Huang Feihu issued a shutdown order, and the Perch stopped immediately. The entire submarine was quiet and there was no noise at all.
Huang Feihu used this method to conduct anti-reconnaissance on German anti-submarine aircraft, aiming to find the general technical direction of the other party to discover his own submarine.
"The illumination signal continues to increase, and enemy planes are hovering above me!"
The illumination signal hit the submarine's shell, and all the officers and soldiers including Huang Feihu could hear it clearly. But Huang Feihu still did not think that it was discovered by the enemy, and it might be the enemy's guess.
"It's a deep water bomb!"
The sonar soldiers quickly reported that the Germans had obviously determined the location of the bass and decisively fired deep-water bombs.
"Damn it! How did they find us!"
Huang Feihu cursed and immediately ordered: "Dive down to 200 meters!"
"The illumination signal continues to lock us!"
"The enemy has fired another deep water bomb!"
Every time the Perch submersible dives at a certain depth, the German anti-submarine aircraft will readjust the explosion depth of the deep water bomb. Obviously, the Germans are very clear about the water depth where the Perch submersible is located.
Only then did Huang Feihu realize the seriousness of the problem and immediately ordered the machine to start the battery and order the Perch to retreat quickly.
The underwater speed of the Perch is as high as 25 knots, and the underwater submarine time is extremely long, which is incomparable to other submarines. The German anti-submarine aircraft has been following it for more than two hours, but no Perch has been seen floating on it. The German anti-submarine aircraft has a limited range, so it finally has to give up the pursuit.
It was not until the irradiation signal completely disappeared that Huang Feihu breathed a sigh of relief, so he immediately reported the situation to the headquarters.
