Romanian Eagle

After Edward launched four torpedoes, the torpedoes that were launched immediately showed four white lines on the sea, which were immediately seen by the watchmen on the escorting warship.

"Beware of submarines."

As the watchman yelled, the alarm bell sounded on the warship, and the crew immediately took action. The weapon they operated immediately shot at the white line emitted by the torpedo.

It's just that two or three of their kittens can't stop the torpedo from advancing, and they rushed to the transport fleet. In fact, the slow-moving transport ships were already in a panic. Where have these conscripted civilian ships seen such battles, there is no way to operate the ships to avoid the torpedoes.

I saw the incoming torpedo directly hit the transport ship that could not dodge.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Three consecutive explosions sounded on the sides of the two transport ships. The torpedo impact caused an explosion to blow a big hole in the side of the ship, and the turbulent tide rushed into the cabin regardless. The crew above hurriedly untied the lifeboat, boarded it, and even jumped into the water impatiently wearing a life jacket.

And such a miserable image scared the other transport ships into a panic.

Major Martha, who was the commander of the fleet, knew that he could not mess around at this time, so he immediately gave the order. "Send a semaphore and let them form a circle to sail north at full speed and leave here. At the same time, send a telegram to the Ocean Star and Rhodes to get them into the middle of the fleet.

Yes, he must give priority to ensuring the safety of these two ships, because they are loaded with a regiment of troops, and there is nothing wrong with these two ships.

And following his words, the warship he was riding on immediately sent a flag to the fleet to tell it to turn.

Major Martha wouldn't just let it go, he gave the order again. "Telegraph to the Nasher, and immediately search the area with our ship. Let the Angel protect other ships to leave first, and send a report to the island of Cyprus to inform us of the submarine attack and request air support from it."

That's right, Major Martha didn't plan to let it go. He will protect the fleet to leave first. But he must find this **** submarine.

Under the sea, the Union is like a child who has done bad things and is leaving quietly.

At this time Edward no longer dared to stretch out his periscope, and this thing would now increase the chances of himself being discovered. After driving some distance, Edward continued to give orders. "Reduce to a speed of 2 knots and dive to 60 meters at the same time."

Following his words, the speed of the submarine dropped lower, and it dived deeper. At the same time, Major Martha led two destroyers aggressively to the sea area where the torpedoes were launched, and they were snooping. The sonar monitor did not find any traces of the submarine after a round of investigation. This is also very normal. No one is a fool. He stole the chicken and didn't run to wait for the bombing.

"Throw a depth bomb."

It's just that Major Martha didn't give up. He was afraid that the submarine would give him a black light, and still let people throw depth charges here. This is currently the best weapon against submarines.

Since the British invented the depth charge in World War I, it has always been a weapon against submarines. It and sonar detectors constitute the standard equipment of warships.

Following the order of Major Martha, the two warships immediately dropped depth charges into the sea.

"Boom~boom~boom."

After several muffled noises, nothing came out of the sea, not even a single fish.

Martha was not surprised to see no results. If there were results, it would be an accident. Anti-submarine not only requires technology, but also luck.

It's just that it's definitely impossible for him to let it go. "Now our two warships are searching separately, we head north, let the Nasher head south."

There is no problem with Martha's order, because eastward is the island of Cyprus, and he has just sent a telegram. This **** submarine should not go into the net. To the south is Egypt, which is the most likely direction of escape for the submarine.

Westward is the direction they came from. If the submarine runs to the west, then it may encounter other fleets, but they have been attacked, then other fleets will be more vigilant, and don’t forget that they have the advantage of airplanes. , I believe that every aircraft observer will carefully observe the sea with wide eyes.

The main purpose of going north is to protect the departing fleet. Now Martha has the upper hand rationally, and hopes that the fleet going northward will not be attacked again.

By coincidence, his decision happened to be the same route as Edward, who quietly left northward.

"They are chasing."

The sonar in the submarine said the news with a flustered expression. In fact, he didn't need to say that everyone in the submarine knew it. Because the depth bombs along the way have never stopped, and they are getting closer and closer.

"Captain, how should we respond?"

The first officer looked at Edward nervously and asked. Not only him, but other members of the submarine are waiting for his order. Whether they turn off the engine so that the enemy can't find it, or run full force to escape immediately, the captain needs to give an order.

Edward did not give any promise in the eyes that everyone was expecting, but instead showed a thoughtful expression on his face. Facing the captain in such a dangerous situation, he was still so calm and calm, and the rest of the anxious hearts of the other members were also relieved a lot.

In fact, they didn't know, Edward himself was panicked. It's just that the education he received from a young age told him that he shouldn't let himself show a flustered side, because it didn't help.

In fact, these two decisions are not so good, because if you stop and wait, it is to hand over your own destiny to the enemy, betting that they have not found whether they are close to them with God. It’s just as bad to run at full force, because it increases their chances of being spotted, and escaping at full speed will make the sonar show that they are like they are in a concert, and they are still rock’s.

So these two choices make Edward a little difficult.

"Captain, we have no time."

The sonar's words clearly urged Edward to make a decision quickly. Because the enemy ship is not far away from them, if you don't make a decision, you can only wait for the judgment of fate.

"parking."

These two words were spit out from Edward's mouth, and the other crew members immediately had the backbone. And with his order, the submarine stopped completely.

Now they can only wait for the verdict of fate.

On the sea, Martha still didn't know that his enemy was under the sea not far in front of him. At present, the warship he is riding is still implementing the standard anti-submarine, that is, the depth charge is not stopped to try to blow out the sneak attackers.

"Have you found it so far?"

"No, Major."

Hearing the answer from the officer in charge of the observation, Martha could only walk to the sonar room.

I asked the sonar again for the same words and got the same answer, which made Martha lack confidence in finding the submarine.

"Drop a few more depth bombs. If we haven't found them yet, let's **** them first. Let the plane focus on this sea area."

He always cared about the fleet in his heart and expressed his thoughts.

"Yes, Mr. Major."

"boom."

A depth water bomb exploded more than ten meters away from the Union. The turbulent water pressure continued to squeeze the submarine's hull, causing it to rattle, and a water pipe in the cabin burst overwhelmed, which was immediately evoked. Maintenance of the damaged staff.

It's just that these can't be the target of Edward's concern. He is praying that the next depth charge will not hit the submarine. Let alone hit the submarine, it won't work a few meters away.

"Almighty God, please save the people you love."

Edward meditated inwardly, swearing that he had never prayed so sincerely.

As if his prayers were fulfilled, the next depth bomb did not arrive, and the sound of the enemy warship's motor was going away.

After the sound of the motor was completely inaudible, Edward said a word. "We are safe."

And his words made all the crew members happy~www.readwn.com~ Now they are very convinced of their own captain that the captain saved the big guy.

"What should we do now?"

The chief mate asked carefully, now his eyes are all trusting Edward, as long as the captain asks him to go to Fleet Street streaking, he will do it.

"Let's go back first."

Unexpectedly, Edward gave everyone an unexpected answer. Seeing everyone looking at him intently, Edward explained. "At present, we are in a very dangerous situation. The enemy must guard the transportation line strictly now, and even wants to find us out. Let's go back and wait until the enemy relaxes."

Edward's words persuaded the crew, and after everyone agreed, Edward immediately issued the order.

"We are going home now."

The attack mission belonging to the Union submarine was completed once. Next, they will have a good rest in Port Said, then maintain the submarine, and wait for the next attack.
