In another corner where the poor sailor could not see, there was actually a periscope that was observing the every move of the transport fleet here. At such a subtle moment, the German submarine finally showed all its killer moves and began to pour out deadly torpedoes towards the opponent who had no power to fight back.

The sailor who found that there was also a German submarine on the port side cursed and before he could run far away, a torpedo hit the iron plate of the ship beneath the deck where he stood.

The huge inertia caused the torpedo to hit the iron plate heavily, and then the vibration stimulated the torpedo fuse and ignited the explosive behind it. In just a moment, the excited action was completed, and the entire torpedo's body was torn into countless pieces that could not be seen by terrible chemical energy.

Before the poor sailor and those around him realized the next thought in his mind, the explosion of air waves and flames, they swallowed up their bodies, and then the sea water pushed away by the torpedo explosion began to shake and tear repeatedly, twisting and destroying the ship's side.

The human body seems so humble and insignificant in the face of such violent power. As the shock wave spreads, these sailors near the center of the explosion are pushed high into the air. Then, because the power is too strong, they are interrupted into several or dozens of pieces during the flight.

There is no need to notify other ships, nor to notify your captain, because as long as you are not blind, you can see this gorgeous fireworks, and as long as you are not deaf, you can hear this deafening sound.

The sea water poured into the inside of the ship. Merchant ships without heavy armor protection could not resist such terrible weapons. The huge force that even the battleships could not resist destroyed the support structure of the ship in an instant. The twisted sound of steel could still be heard clearly even in the noise of the huge explosion.

The buoyancy of the two sections of the hit transport ship did not change in a short time, but the weight increased sharply due to the large amount of water inflow in the cargo, but it lost its buoyancy. As a result, with the crackling sound, the damaged steel keel began to crack, and the extremely strong and huge steel bars were twisted into two sections by a stronger force.

As the keel deformed, the surrounding iron plates were squeezed out like bullets, splashing everywhere inside the cabin, like bullets, flying everywhere, piercing through the chests or belly of the unlucky sailors. Blood seeped into the sea water and became bright red and dazzling.

In just over a dozen seconds, the transport ship broke from the middle, and the sterns and bows of both ends were raised high, leaving the sea surface with dripping sea water. The bottom of the ship that had been soaked in the water for many years was covered with creatures in the ocean, and it looked far less smooth than other parts.

"The transport ship h19 was sunk! Oh my god! That's the left position! There are enemy submarines there! There are enemy submarines there!" In the core part, a crew member shouted loudly with a telescope. His shouting was full of despair, as if the god of death was already standing above his head.

In order to protect the safety of the entire fleet and to better protect important and scarce materials, the large fleets heading to Iceland arranged the ships in the fleet according to their importance: the outermost ships generally transport valuable food or cheap materials; further inside, there are personnel and some weapons and equipment; the things loaded on the ships at the core are more dangerous, either oil or ammunition.

In this situation, the formation of the entire fleet is already in chaos. In addition, it is obvious that the Germans are prepared, and the situation looks very bad - at this moment, when you are at home, if you sit on a ship filled with 10 tons of explosives and 30 tons of shells and weapons, it is obviously a very desperate thing.

Sure enough, before the crew on the arms transport ship could study how to improve their current situation, they saw a transport ship in a core position not far away hitting the hull by a leaking torpedo. In an instant, the explosion of water column rose at least 20 floors. Accompanied by the explosion, there was also the heroic explosion of the oil tanker loaded with the most oil in the entire fleet.

This huge fire ball, similar to the ultimate explosion, sounded the horn of the collapse of the British. Some transport ships on the edge were on the verge of being very easy to escape from the large army. They began to leave the fleet and escape in other directions while doing evasion. The destroyers that were supposed to protect merchant ships are now busy dealing with the tricky German submarines.

The outer periphery of the fleet was actually not peaceful. Over time, the British destroyer had dropped a series of deep water bombs and made a series of dull sounds in the depths of the ocean. The huge explosion repeatedly pulled the sea water, and finally allowed this powerful tearing force to spread to a considerable distance.

However, these explosive deep-water bombs obviously did not have the effect they should have, because the explosion location was too far from the target they were going to attack. The submarine u-47 has used its excellent speed to get rid of the British destroyer that was chasing it. After all, the sound of explosions in the distance affected the sonar detection of both sides. The current combat environment is very harsh, which is conducive to the submarine's evasion.

If the Royal Navy was asked to rank the German ships it hated, then the first place would be the German submarine. This damn weapon should not appear in the minds of the British. This thing is simply an invention of trampling on the British Empire.

When it comes to the extraordinary battle of the English Channel, the British always felt that the German Navy's aircraft carrier fleet was unfair. They believed that if it were not for the German spies who happened to come out at a critical moment, the final winner of the naval battle would have to be the British Royal Navy. So even after losing the control of the sea or the loss of the control of the sea, the British Navy was still full of confidence in winning.

The Nelson spirit, which has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow for a hundred years, and the arrogance and strength that has been erected in a hundred years, cannot be affected by a small setback. The only thing that unforgettable to the Royal Navy of the British is nothing but the shame lost by the local area.

They even believe that what really threatens the Royal Navy is the German submarine and the damn "Arc Marshal Redell" battleship. As for aircraft carriers, as long as the United States supports the British aircraft carrier, it is not a big threat at all.

Unfortunately, since the ghost appeared in the North Atlantic, the British began to face their opponents. When one battleship after another sank under the German torpedo, the British finally felt like a light on their backs, and anxiety began to fill their hearts.

Now, something that makes people despair has happened. The ghosts that originally had only one ship have now become several. The technical solutions that were ready to deal with German ghost submarines are still in the laboratory, and there is no possibility of mass production at all.

Some people imagine using bait and a large number of planes to preset an ambush position to kill the ghost, but so far there is no record of planes discovering this ghost submarine, which is so coincidental that it cannot be summarized and summarized with good luck.

According to the technical department, the Germans have made progress in the technology of radar miniaturization, and at least they can install radar on such submarines, thus avoiding various patrol aircraft in the sky.

A large number of spies operating in France have also taken blurry long-distance photos of these submarines. From the reference objects in the photos, the submarine has a larger tonnage and has eliminated weapons such as anti-aircraft guns, which reduces some underwater noise, is more concealed and faster.

As for why this submarine can drive a speed of more than 15 knots underwater and can lurk underwater for a long time, it can only be summarized by guessing and inference. The British and American naval technical departments believe that this submarine is likely to use an unknown power, and some clues are judging that this ghost submarine is equipped with a very high-performance battery system.

Coupled with the known super high torpedo rate of fire of this submarine, the rough outline of this submarine - this weapon is enough to be described as epoch-making. At least the intelligence agencies in the UK and the United States have offered sky-high prices. Who can get the design drawings or some design drawings of this thing, and the prize is 5 million US dollars.

As for why German torpedoes can attack on the oncoming ships head-on, this is a simple technical trick. The two German submarines that were ambushing in front and silently waiting for the opponent's fleet to approach, changed the torpedo's touch explosion fuze to a timed explosion through the simple computing device on the submarine, and set the explosion time.

This simple computer is the latest product of the Turing working group. Although it does not meet the pre-complex calculation requirements, it can do some simple fixed calculations, which are used on a new submarine to help set this timed fuze. The torpedo did not explode when it touched the other party's hull, but it exploded around the hull after reaching the specified time.

It is precisely because of this attack method that Prien arranged two submarines to block the road in the front of the British transport fleet. It is precisely because the opponent's ship formation is dense that the hit probability of this delayed automatic explosion fuze has been increased. The British probably would never have thought that the Germans used mathematical methods rather than technical means to increase their own torpedo attack mode.
