"Retract your legs, Widdle, please make it, Mr. Dez. Thank you, sailor." Chef Weldon Bart held a woven basket in both hands and squeezed through the narrow aisle of the sailor's cabin with difficulty.

Because I had just received sea supplies, most of the space in the cabin, even the crew's beds, are now full of supplies.

"Today I have fresh eggs, cheer for the captain." The chef announced the good news loudly.

“Great, I love eggs.”

“Long live the fried eggs.”

"I like tender ones, don't forget, Weldon."

"It's better to add some black pepper."

"Yes, if there is another glass of red wine, it will be even more beautiful." The sailors who were sorting out the supplies were talking and talking.

"You guys are so greedy. To educate you, today's lunch is tomato and egg soup, so it's just arranged." The chef happily stepped over the hatch door, leaving behind a wail of crew members.

Eggs are a very easy-to-eat food, especially in a humid and hot environment in tropical waters, so like vegetables and fresh meat, they are on the list of the most preferred foods to consume. Although there is a small refrigerator on the u106, which is used to store precious fresh meat and fresh fish, it cannot be squeezed out to store cheap foods such as eggs.

It has been a whole week since u106 sailed from Haifang Port. Because of the addition of twenty training crews, the speed of food consumption has also increased a lot. Because the training crews have to squeeze out space for living, and this time this time is not the usual 12-week full cruise, so the submarine did not carry too much supplies when leaving the port.

One hundred and fifty kilograms of fresh eggs sounded a lot, but they were consumed in less than a week.

This time, the sea supply was one of the scheduled training programs. The supply ship Grouse did not carry too much fresh food. The basket of eggs was laid by the hens raised by the Grouse. It was a private gift given to Captain Robin by Lieutenant Colonel William.

"This is the order of the Navy General Command, we must do what we have on it." Captain Hank Robin leaned lazily on the command tower fence and handed the navigation chart in his hand back to the first mate Igor.

"I'll call the officers right away, but you didn't expect this to be a battle cruise." Igor stacked the chart and stuffed it into the open front of his shirt.

The German Navy has traditional summer clothes, but does not specifically design uniforms in tropical regions. The light khaki military shirt on the lieutenant was brought from the British Army's logistics warehouse when the fleet passed through Singapore. They also got trousers of the same color and tropical shorts of the British army. Everyone on the boat got two sets. After sewing the German naval badge logo, the visual effect was quite good.

"Wait a minute, Igor." Robin called out to the first mate who was about to get off the cabin.

"What else do you have to do?" Igor asked, holding the hatch's gangway with both hands.

"You forgot this." Robin took out a metal lighter from his pocket and threw it over.

"Thank you." Igor raised his hand and caught the lighter, roared at Robin, and then smiled and went down the gangway to the cabin.

"This is an excellent opportunity, Captain Wang. You can see at close range how the German naval submarine forces fight in hostile waters." Robin leaned against the command tower fence, raised his head and squinted his eyes, and looked up at the blue sky with faint clouds floating.

"The Siam government made a serious mistake, but as a soldier in the National Government, I cannot express too much on this issue. I would like to thank you very much for agreeing to let us stay, rather than following the orders of the Training Corps Command, to let us return to the port with the supply ship." The Navy Captain of the National Government expressed his gratitude to Robin with a slightly raised chest.

"Your boss's concerns make sense. As the commander in charge of your training, he must consider your personal safety. But if it were me, I would never sit idly by and waste this rare opportunity. After all, few sailors have the opportunity to witness a real naval battle." Robin turned his face and said with a smile to Captain Wang.

"Now go back to the cabin, Captain. Be prepared to start today's submarine training. I promise everyone will be very busy today." Robin raised his hand and saluted the captain of the State Government who was standing attentively saluting.

The German Navy set up a fleet headquarters in the port of Saigon and set up a fully equipped long-wave communication station in the city, covering the entire South China Sea and the Gulf of Siam.

The combat order was issued directly by the Navy General Command far away in Berlin, and did not pass Wilhelmshaven. It was obvious that this was a decision made by the Imperial Command, which meant that the contents of the order were not allowed to be violated by any Germans.

The full text of the command is actually five words, search and annihilate. Search and attack Siamese ships and ships operating in Southeast Asian waters. The commanders of each ship can decide their own ways to deal with the target.

The supplementary text behind actually has other meanings, which means that if conditions permit, the German Navy can choose to capture the selected target and dispose of the trophy obtained in accordance with naval practice.

This is equivalent to a modern privateer license. It is an ancient tradition in European navies. Capture and seizure of enemy merchant ships are regarded as a legal means of war. Navy of various countries even formulated trophy distribution standards for this.

As far as Captain Robin knows, there are at least seventeen German naval submarines currently operating in Southeast Asia, and three Vii types are under rest in Haiphong Port. This is the largest submarine fleet in Asia besides the Japanese Navy.

There are currently four ib-type ocean-going submarines of the same class as the U106, each of which is u107, u122 and u1. In the Saigon Naval Base, these four large submarines and the French [Sukufu] are parked on a berth and are nicknamed Detachment No. 9 by their colleagues.

To be honest, the Gulf of Siam is not an ideal water suitable for submarine combat. There are too many shallows there and the water quality near the sea is extremely clear, which is not conducive to submarine hiding.

The Siam government attached great importance to naval construction and spent a lot of money to order a batch of naval ships from foreign countries. Among them were offshore submarines made by the Japanese Mitsubishi Shipyard, a small submarine with a full load displacement of 430 tons. It was named the [mujhanu] Fury Class by the Siam Navy. Each submarine is priced at 6.9 million baht. The Mitsubishi Shipyard gave the Siam Navy a kickback of 820,000 baht per submarine.

The four submarines are all named after mythical characters. In addition to the first boat, the Rage God, the remaining three are: i-Ruan (the giant in Siam myth), private Narmut Simshamoda (the angel in Siam myth), and phlai-humpol (the elephant god in Siam myth). In order to be suitable for tropical shallow sea activities, the Siam Navy also designed light blue paint for them.

Although Siam owns a submarine, it does not have the ability to make the consumables needed for the submarine. All the easily consumed equipment and parts can only be imported from Japan. The operation of these four submarines is equivalent to being controlled by the Japanese.

The technology of this submarine is already behind and has little threat to warships from Germany and France, but it can still cause damage to commercial routes, so it was listed on the first list of targets that must be destroyed.

However, due to the constraints of tonnage, the u106 will not enter the shallow sea of ​​Siam. The target she determined was the Siam merchant ships and maritime defense ships operating in the central Gulf of Siam.
