"Torpedo launch!"

Major Torrezimer, the captain of the U29 submarine, ordered.

A 533mm heavy mine was immediately shot out from the torpedo tube.

This was already their fourth target tonight. The previous three targets, They have all been sunk by them.

"boom!"

Soon, a violent explosion sounded. A merchant ship with a displacement of more than 5,000 tons was directly broken into two parts during the explosion and sank into the sea. The soldiers of the expeditionary force on the merchant ship were like dumplings. jump into the sea

"very good!"Major Otto Kretschmer had a smile on his face.

Just when he was about to find the next target to attack, his expression suddenly changed.

"Dive! Emergency dive! The Royal Navy destroyers are back!"Major Otto Kretschmer ordered anxiously.

For these submarines, destroyers equipped with sonar and depth bombs can be regarded as their nemesis. Once targeted, it will be a narrow escape!

So, They did not care to continue attacking those merchant ships and transport ships. The most important thing was to escape first. The

U29 submarine immediately began an emergency dive.

Seawater poured into the tank, the air was exhausted, leaving a large amount of water on the sea surface. bubbles.

The submarine's figure has been hidden under the sea surface and escaped immediately.

However, the underwater speed of submarines in this era is only 8 knots. In other words, it can only sail a distance of fifteen kilometers in an hour.. It is naturally impossible to escape in a short time.

Just a few minutes after the submarine U29 dived, a Hunter-class destroyer caught up with it.

"Sonar detection, where did that damn submarine go?"The captain ordered

"Yes, sir!"The sonar soldier replied.

However, a few minutes later, the sonar soldier looked bitter.

"Sir, the sonar cannot find the other party, there is too much noise interference."The sonar soldier reported.

At this moment, the fleets of both sides were still engaging in fierce exchanges of fire. The sound of exploding shells seriously interfered with the sonar detection. In addition, the sonar of this era was very primitive and its performance was extremely limited. It could not detect the target. , that is to say, it is excusable

"Bastard, launch depth charges and blow them out!"The captain ordered through gritted teeth.

"Yes, sir!"

The destroyer continued to launch depth bombs. The bombs exploded in the sea, splashing water columns.

At this moment, the soldiers on the U29 submarine all turned pale. They could feel that the submarine was shaking violently. These were depth bombs. The shock wave generated after the explosion in the sea washed over the submarine. The current U29 submarine is in no danger of escaping. Once a water bomb hits, or a depth charge explodes near them, the huge pressure generated can tear apart the pressure resistance of the submarine. It was destroyed.

Some submarines, after they had finished diving, were destroyed by the depth charges of the navy's destroyers.

Fortunately, the U29 submarine was quite good and successfully escaped. On the sea, the fierce battle continued.

When the Royal Navy fleet rushed back to deal with the Third Reich's submarines, the Third Reich Navy fleet also took the opportunity to kill them.

They did not continue to entangle the Royal Navy fleet. Instead, attack those merchant ships and transport ships directly.

"boom! boom! boom!"

The main guns and secondary guns of each battleship fired fiercely, almost pouring shells at these merchant ships and transport ships at the maximum rate of fire.

How could these merchant ships and transport ships, which were already extremely fragile, withstand the fierce fire? , were hit one after another.

They caught fire, burned, and sank.

Countless transport ships and merchant ships were destroyed and sunk by the attacks of the Third Reich naval fleet, not to mention the number of expeditionary officers and soldiers who were killed as a result. Quite a few.

Lieutenant General Algernon seemed to be going crazy, trembling with rage.

"Bastards, damn Germans! They are so despicable! Kill them, kill them all!"Vice Admiral Orgion roared angrily.

The Royal Navy's fleet detached a part of its destroyers to hunt down the Third Reich's submarine force, and the rest of the fleet once again pounced on the Third Reich's naval fleet. Wanting to stop the Third Reich's submarine force

, The three imperial naval fleets attacked their own transport ships and merchant ships.

In the process, many merchant ships and transport ships have been destroyed. It can be said that the Royal Navy's mission today has completely failed.

Even if They destroyed some battleships and submarines of the Third Reich Navy.

However, the losses of transport ships and merchant ships, especially the losses of the expeditionary force, were undoubtedly very large.

The strength of the Third Reich naval fleet was not as good as that of the Royal Navy.

Especially in When the Royal Navy was in anger, it was not something that the Third Reich naval fleet could handle.

Under the fierce attacks of the Royal Navy fleet, battleships were constantly hit and even sunk.

Although the Third Reich naval fleet was The counterattack also cost the Royal Navy a lot of money. But overall, the Royal Navy fleet still has the absolute advantage.

Under such circumstances, if the battle continues, the one who will suffer the loss will undoubtedly be Three Reichs Naval Fleet

"It's almost done, order the fleet to retreat immediately!"Major General Friedeburg ordered

"Yes, General!"The officer replied.

Immediately, the Third Reich fleet quickly evacuated the battlefield and fled.

Although the Royal Navy was determined to pursue it, Lieutenant General Algernon was worried that this was another plan of the Third Reich Navy to divert the tiger away from the mountain, so he had to give up the pursuit and leave. Evacuated by the Third Reich fleet.

Seeing the burning ships everywhere on the sea and the densely packed expeditionary force soldiers falling into the water, Lieutenant General Algernon looked very ugly.

He knew that the battle of the Royal Navy tonight They lost, and the loss was very ugly.

Especially the transport ships and merchant ships, the losses were very heavy.

Originally, they gathered hundreds of transport ships and merchant ships. However, dozens of them were killed by the submarines of the Third Reich.. Then many were killed by the fleet of the Third Reich.

Now, the total number of merchant ships and transport ships that can still be put into use is only more than 30.

Two-thirds of the merchant ships and transport ships The ship was destroyed.

This allows them to take up to 20,000 officers and soldiers of the expeditionary force away tonight. This is undoubtedly very large compared to their previous expectations._To read the underlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
