Chapter 440: Transport line

Biquge EbookFREE.me, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!
When the head of the empire, Akado, as the largest shareholder of the Bailanhua Group, personally split the subsidiary and sold it, the German capitalists were completely boiled. Everyone knows how profitable Bai Lanhua Group is, and everyone knows what these subsidiaries that provide a large amount of weapons and equipment for the German team will bring to themselves.
Although the operations and profits of these companies must be arranged and controlled by the government within 10 years, as long as they make money, who cares about these details? As long as the government can ensure that these factories will still be able to make money as they do today in the next 10 years, then everyone ’s investment will already be made.
Soon, a 40% share of the subsidiary Mercedes-Benz Motor Manufacturing Group was sold, a 45% share of the subsidiary BMW Engine Manufacturing was sold, a 25% share of the Rhine Heavy Metal Company was sold, and a 70% share of the Munich Arms Industry Group was sold ... This series of dazzling measures led to a huge reorganization of the entire German capital.
Surprisingly, following the Bai Lanhua Group, there was even Krupp, the second-largest industrial production entity; and the old leader of the German chemical company, the company. The two huge production groups sold their shares at the same time, and packaged and sold some subsidiaries and enterprises that can still make a lot of money now. These giant companies that sell their subsidiaries have all turned their investment to the newly occupied France and Belgium areas, where they merged local small and medium-sized enterprises and began to integrate the labor force in the occupied area.
Not only did the German economy not collapse, but it also ushered in another round of development in a more efficient manner. Various military industrial enterprises were effectively integrated, and thousands of car tank fighters were sent to the front. The German production capacity was more than doubled in the same period in February 1937.
"Captain! A telegram from the No. 11 boat group. At 4 pm, the transport fleet numbered h31 passed through their ambush zone and was approaching our side. According to the speed estimate, it was expected to enter our boat in the evening. Range of attack. "A telegrapher handed an encrypted message to the submarine commander who was standing by.
"Telegraph for submarine u-159 and submarine u-100! Tell them to catch the big fish and prepare for a night-round attack! The attack time is 7:15!" The commander took a close look at the message. And then nodded. After speaking, he left the door of the small telegraph room on the submarine. He took the message and walked step by step in the damp and dark submarine corridor until he stopped at the central command room not far away.
His lieutenant was using the periscope to observe the movement on the sea. When he saw the captain coming, he pushed the periscope up to the ceiling. He said: "No enemy has been found yet. The submarine is cruising at 3 knots and the voltage is stable."
"It's hard work! Adjust the voyage, starboard 11 degrees." The captain commanded loudly: "In the evening prepare to launch an attack on the transport fleet marked h31, check the torpedo depth and fuze! Don't make mistakes!"
"Understood!" The adjutant stood upright excitedly, and then began issuing commands one after another: "Check torpedo launcher! Determine torpedo depth! Second level combat alert!"
"The attack time is 7:15." The captain pulled down the central periscope and put his eyes on it. From the sight glass, you can see the choppy sea, which is empty but refreshing.
"Float! Let everyone go to the water to breathe! After 20 minutes dive!" The captain said with a smile: "Go! Let's smoke a cigarette together."
"Good!" The adjutant nodded with a smile, then shouted loudly: "Everyone pays attention to their feet! The submarine starts to float!"
Along with the shaking, this shark-like German u-shaped submarine surfaced little by little, and began to shake up and down with the waves on the sea. Only then did all the submarine crew members feel that they were back in the world, not the silent hell.
The oil extractor began to work happily again, making a noisy rhythm. The power of the submarine becomes stronger and the speed becomes faster. The battery began to charge, making the best preparations for the next underwater voyage, followed by the bright lights on the entire submarine, and the dimness caused by the power saving disappeared instantly, and everyone's mood became brighter.
The soldiers unscrewed the reinforced hatch, and the water poured down from above, and everyone's clothes were wet with a clatter, but no one was angry at this kind of thing. Instead, they cheered the most fiercely. More and more troops are invested in anti-submarine. Although German submarines are still unconsciously sunk very little, it is true that the luxury treatment of floating and breathing is getting less and less.
Climbing along the iron ladder to the steel deck of the submarine, the soldiers began to smoke against the anti-aircraft guns and the guardrail, many people did various stretching exercises, and the captain on the command tower and the adjutant and the watchman crowded Together, enjoying the sea breeze and fresh air. This moment is so pleasant and beautiful, it seems that it can make people forget that they are in war, it seems that they can forget that they are on a submarine full of torpedoes.
The favorite thing for submarine officers and soldiers is luxury perfumes from France. Because they do not take a shower for almost two months, they live in a narrow space full of diesel and sweat and smelly feet. thing.
In the long life of two months at sea, these soldiers are basically accompanied by cold submarines. They are familiar with every corner of the entire submarine, measured the length of the entire submarine with their feet, gave each valve a nice name, and insisted on an autistic lifestyle like a prisoner.
But they have their own way of excitement to maintain the boring life at sea. After nightfall, the submarine began to dive slowly, and a large British transport fleet appeared on the horizon on time. The wolves once again stared at their prey, and a new round of hunting began.
"Last inspection before torpedo launch!" "Inspection completed!"
"Ready to launch!" "Ready to finish!"
"Fan-shaped, six bow torpedoes at the bow! Three! Two! One! Start firing!" The captain shouted loudly!
"Boom!" The first torpedo entered the sea, followed by the second and third, and the last to the sixth. The six torpedoes formed a beautiful fan in the water, swimming towards their goal, and behind them pulled up a shallow line drawn by a white wave.
At another angle opposite the submarine, a submarine with the number u-100 on the control tower fired six torpedoes on its bow at the same time. It also formed a good-looking fan, also in the direction of the poor British transport fleet not far away. Of course, in the other direction, the U-159 submarine is doing the same thing.
"Boom!" The first explosion sounded, and a British outermost destroyer was hit by a torpedo, and immediately a flame burst into flames. Shouts and terrible explosions stretched for hundreds of meters, and more British sailors began to search the water, hoping to help their own ships escape doom. But apparently, at night, the sight is not very good. Therefore, the task of finding enemy troops to attack torpedoes seems to be a thankless situation.
Immediately after the second explosion, a peripheral warship was hit and stopped in the flames, the first destroyer in the distance had already sunk. The warship that was just hit was obviously not so lucky. It broke into two pieces and began to sink rapidly. Even without a telegram, it took almost all the crew to sink to the bottom of the sea.
Soon, the third explosion and the fourth explosion followed the British transport fleet, and the entire fleet was chaotic. The massacre continued in the dark, and another round of salvos from the German submarine sounded the death knell for the entire fleet. The next day at dawn, the fleet of 40 transport ships had only 21 ships intact, half of the matter sank to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, and the commander of the fleet stood crying without tears in the flagship command bridge. sound.
It wasn't that he was ruthless and ruthless, but that he had already been numbed by a submarine attack from the night. Since mid-February, the British transport fleet has basically fallen into an embarrassing situation that cannot be replenished. Even if the ships leased from the high price of the United States are counted, it cannot fill the huge tonnage of the German submarine. This is the second time he has gone to sea, and he has become the most experienced nautical expert in the entire fleet.
Originally like a trickling water transportation line, it was like a faucet that was gradually tightened by people, and it has continuously changed into a pitiful situation like dripping water. Because the huge losses could not be filled, and the number of warships became less and less every day, the British navy seemed to focus on escorting the route from Britain to Canada, allowing the German troops to attack the US-British transport routes indiscriminately.
Everyone knows that the British mainland is almost over, but as an Englishman, every time he thinks about this tragic ending, he still inevitably grieves. He was almost the first batch of British sailors who knew that the German naval blockade was basically completed, because every time from the eyes of those disappointed people waiting at the port, they could see that the materials and food they brought back were too little and too little Too.
"This war! This Germans!" The British commander scolded loudly at the table in front of him: "What kind of hero is this staring at the transportation line?"
No one took his word, because in the last world war, the British also blocked the fragile German ports and maritime transport, so that the German gray-faced surrender that had not yet shed blood? Now that people are blocking Britain in reverse, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.
