Chapter 672 Decisive Battle Against the Wrath of the Atlantic Ocean (2)

Although Hines' Queen was hit by the Great Emperor, for the Ultimate battleship, its powerful armor protection is difficult to penetrate by shells. Especially the ultimate battleship of the German Navy, the emphasis on armor protection enables it to withstand the attack of a considerable number of large-caliber shells. In theory, the Queen can withstand the 16 non-penetrating 20-inch shells fired by the Ultimate battleship of the Ultimate battleship of the Ultimate battleship of the Ultimate battleship of the Ultimate battleship of the Ultimate battleship of the Ultimate battleship of the Ultimate battleship of the Ultimate battleship of the Ultimate battleship of the Ultimate.

In fact, the two sides had a diplomatic fire of 30 kilometers. In the harsh weather and a sharp visual degree, the hit rate was surprisingly low. The two sides had been fighting for more than an hour, and only the Emperor Guanghua hit the Queen's shell. However, Hines's five battleships fired more than 400 shells, but none of them directly hit the Emperor Guanghua.

The Hornets Air Wing exhausted all the aviation bombs and torpedoes and returned after paying a significant loss.

Under the terrifying waves of the sea, the German submarine fleet that received the order set off. Since Hansen's route was originally the direction of the ambush of German submarines, the German submarine group was very close to Li Dingxin's Central Fleet, and in less than twenty minutes it had entered the anti-submarine identification circle of the periphery of the Imperial Navy's Navy's guard ships.

"Discover a large number of submarines of unknown origin!"

"Fight Alert! Superior Notification!"

The rapid anti-submarine combat alarm sounded, and several light cruisers and anti-submarine destroyers of the Central Fleet quickly assembled to the warning area.

Li Dingxin, who was happy to hit the Queen battleship, frowned after receiving this report.

"What does the warning fleet do for? So many German submarines are put in?"

"This batch of German submarines seemed to have suddenly appeared in the war zone, and there were no loopholes in the patrol of our periphery of the alert warships and anti-submarine aircraft."

"You mean they appeared out of thin air?"

"I think the German submarines used some special means and have been lurking in the war zone."

Li Dingxin now has no time to hold the responsibility, and he has no time to care about where this German submarine force came from and how to avoid the anti-submarine patrol of the Chinese Empire's naval and air force. What he is most concerned about now is whether the only force can block the German submarine attack.

"More than 70 German U-type submarines are quickly approaching our fleet, with a distance of no more than 30 kilometers. Our anti-submarine warships have only a dozen, so it is obvious that there is no time to block them all."

"Commander, let's avoid it first!"

Liu Chuntang suggested avoiding it for the time being and wait for the anti-submarine battle to end before fighting with the German ships. But it is obvious that the German army will not miss this opportunity.

Hines ordered the Fourth Squadron to be divided into two groups, one by three super battleships, the other by one, one ultimate battleship and one super battleship, approaching the Guanghua Emperor from two directions, and continuously seizing the T-head attack position. At the same time, the German submarines also divided into multiple directions to approach the Guanghua Emperor.

The various escort destroyers of the Central Fleet quickly merged around the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor and entered anti-submarine battle.

“3421. Let it go!”

“3519, let it go!”

With the advanced sonar detection system, the Imperial Chinese Army anti-submarine destroyer can accurately lock the position of the German submarine. Deepwater bombs with advanced quantities were quickly dropped into the sea.

Under the sea, anti-submarine bombs exploded around the German submarines. For German U-type submarines with only a thin layer of armor, if they are directly hit by any deep-water bomb, they will instantly smash the submarine. However, most deep-water bombs cannot directly hit the submarine themselves, and they basically explode around them.

But even so, the violent explosion shock wave of the deep-water bomb is still very powerful. If it is very close to the submarine, the shock wave is enough to crush the submarine's shell, causing damage or even sinking.

This long-awaited German submarine force is a suicide force itself. Their goal is to sink the battleship Guanghua Great at any cost.

In order to quickly get close to the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor, the German submarine group did not evade at all and advanced at the fastest speed. The high-speed propeller made powerful noise, allowing the anti-submarine sonar troops of the Imperial Army to accurately determine the position of the German submarine and give a fierce blow.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

With huge waves dozens of meters high on the sea surface, a German submarine must have been sunk under the sea.

However, there were too many German submarines. Even if the Chinese Imperial Army had strong anti-submarine capabilities, it was too busy.

Soon, more than 30 German troops drove away from the attack of the Chinese Empire's anti-submarine fleet and headed straight for the Guanghua Emperor.

"Many enemy submarines are approaching!"

"Closingly monitor the movements of enemy submarines! Report at any time!"

The position of the German submarine detected by sonar was quickly displayed for the Guanghua Great, which had advanced electronic display equipment. The Captain of the Guanghua Great adjusted the course of the warship at any time according to the position of the German submarine and tried to avoid the attack range of the German submarine.

At this moment, the Emperor Guanghua not only had to lead Hines' surface fleet, but also had to lead the German submarines under the sea, so as to give its anti-submarine warships enough time to destroy the German submarines trying to approach the Emperor Guanghua.

However, in this way, the Central Fleet's light cruisers and hunting ships had to stay around the Guanghua Great. Their fragile armor protection gave the Hines Fleet the target of venting its anger.

Although the Hines fleet's hit rate of the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor battleship is still zero, most of its bounce points are very close to the Guanghua Emperor, and the light cruisers and hunting ships guarding near the Guanghua Emperor battleship were affected.

Soon, a 20-inch shell that was originally fired at the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor failed to hit the Guanghua Emperor, but hit the hunting ship dd671, 300 meters away from the port side of the Guanghua Emperor.

In an instant, the DD671 hunting ship was shattered by a huge bomb weighing 1.8 tons. More than 100 Chinese Navy officers and soldiers were killed in the ship, becoming the first warship lost by the Chinese Navy during the Atlantic decisive battle between the Chinese and German Navy.

The maximum underwater speed of the German submarine is only sixteen knots, and it is very difficult to chase the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor, which has a combat speed of up to 34 knots.

The anti-submarine warships of the Imperial Chinese Army chased and attacked fiercely, causing the German submarines to be sunk one by one.

In order to create an attack opportunity for German submarines, Lieutenant General Hines made a quick decision and ordered five battleships to approach the Guanghua Emperor again, bringing the combat distance to 20 kilometers. Of course, this decision was also made because the light became dimmed and was closer in order to obtain a better shooting range.

The approaching of five German battleships forced the Guanghua Emperor battleship to perform tactical evasion many times. The huge warship turned left and right and took a lot of time, which gave the German submarine a chance to approach.

"Multiple torpedoes are approaching!"

A German submarine obtained the opportunity to attack and fired six torpedoes at the battleship Guanghua Great. However, the German torpedoes were still at the second generation level, without any self-guided devices, and could only attack in a straight line.

This kind of straight-line attack torpedo was difficult to intercept during World War I, but during World War II, the modernization of the Chinese Empire's naval warships was greatly improved, so this kind of straight-line attack torpedo would not get much advantage.

"Near-defense guns open fire!"

With a command, the close-defense gun of the battleship of the Guanghua Emperor, the Vulcan dense array, quickly opened fire on the torpedoes attacking the sea.

The powerful Vulcan dense array can fire more than 6,000 shells per minute, and instantly build a tight fire interception network on the sea surface, intercepting all incoming torpedoes...)
