"Damn it! How can we be found?" At this moment, such a pitiful question repeatedly appeared in the mind of the commander of the Allied Alpine Dog transport fleet. They carefully planned all kinds of scams, and even the sailors on many transport ships did not know that the destination of this action plan was Iceland.
They used countless frauds and even used some fake news to confuse the Germans. But now it seems that all their efforts have been lost, and the German wolves are waiting for their arrival on this route.
"Boom!" Only when another explosion came from a distance did the Allied commander, who was deeply in fear, pull out of his thoughts. In this short moment, he seemed to hear something different from the explosion.
But in such a short period of time, he was not able to find where this very different thing exists. On the other side, the British and American destroyer forces are turning faster, and the entire fleet has begun to appear chaotic and collapse. So he quickly turned around and commanded his assistant aloud: "Keep the fleet heading! Seeing the dark sky, if it is messed up, it will be a disaster!"
"Your Excellency, if the torpedoes facing the enemy still maintain course and speed, then I think it is already a disaster." The assistant said to the general in a panic.
"Asshole! Are you the commander now, or am I the commander? Order the fleet to keep heading! If anyone dares to turn around, I will sink it!" The fleet commander shouted loudly, and then he suddenly realized that What was wrong at the moment, so he turned to his side in surprise, looking at the direction of the ship's explosion with strange eyes: "Not right! Not right!"
When I was hungry, I saw a French meal, and when I was sleepy, someone put a soft pillow, as if ... In short, I felt that I was the most unlucky allied commander in the world at the moment. At this moment, I suddenly felt the favor of the God of Fate.
"The explosion did not continue!" He shouted loudly in excitement. Then his eyes finally recovered his soul, wandering back and forth in his eyes. At this moment he was very excited because at this moment his fleet seemed to be saved again.
There are two types of tactics used by German submarines. One is the ambush tactics of cruising a single boat. To put it bluntly, a submarine is bending at sea. This tactical advantage is undefeated, and it is difficult for the Allies to target the submarine. Of course, this tactic is not invulnerable, and the shortcomings are equally obvious-such a submarine may not encounter an enemy ship before running out of fuel.
The opposite tactics were developed by the German navy General Dennitz. They are the famous wolves tactics opposite to the single-boat cruising tactics. To put it bluntly, this is to use as many methods as possible to find the enemy's target in advance, and then concentrate all the German submarines in the vicinity to siege the Allied fleet at a certain position.
The reason why the wolves tactics are terrible is that the first advantage lies in the diversity and forward-looking of the early detection methods. This is an initiative similar to a technological revolution for a submarine to attack a target. As we all know, due to the limitations of its functions, submarines during World War II can only sail at a speed lower than that of surface ships. This makes submarines discovering targets and obtaining good attack positions become small probability events when they hunt down targets.
Therefore, a large number of submarines can only cruise on the sea aimlessly, relying on luck to find the target and attack-this attack is obviously very inefficient and costly. In response to this situation, as a naval submarine expert, Dunnitz proposed an improved plan.
This plan is to use naval aviation, spy intelligence agencies, and even fishing merchants assault ships in their own country ... all these forces to provide submarines with information on enemy ship activities. With reconnaissance and intelligence, then based on this information, the submarine can be laid in advance in the intended sea area.
Wolves tactics make up for the lack of detection conditions in the early stage of submarine warfare, and concentrate the superior forces to encircle and suppress the Allied transport fleet, so it will sink more ships and cause greater losses to the Allied forces.
In order to give yourself time to escape, and cause the most chaos and obtain the greatest results, the wolves tactics usually launch as many torpedoes as possible at a specific time, and then strike away, far away. These underwater assassins often fire all torpedoes that can be fired within the first time to achieve the greatest results.
But just now, just as the commander of the "Alpine Dog" transport fleet began to despair, the sound of the explosion gradually went away. And after a few sounds, it stopped abruptly.
Oh, God! You really are on our side! With such a thought in mind, the commander immediately began to issue combat orders: "Let the destroyer maintain his position! Don't be impulsive! The enemy may only have one submarine! Don't scare yourself!"
His words calmed down the panicked bridge. Everyone looked at their commander in disbelief, and then some sailors who had experienced the tactical interception of the German submarine wolves immediately realized what: "Hey! The explosion stopped! The enemy's attack did not last! "
As if to confirm their conjecture, the entire fleet has calmed down and it seems that it has not been attacked at all. Either a giant ship in the distance is sinking slowly, or if the ship is spreading farther away, or if there is just a ship exploding-they all have to wonder if they are too nervous and have produced The illusion of a German submarine sneak attack.
"It was an attack by a submarine! Not a German wolf pack!" A sailor who had been attacked by the German wolf pack and survived was leaning on the chair, breathing out a sigh of relief and then said happily: "Great! It seems This time we didn't get home this time. "
In a word, everyone's voice was spoken, and an explosion from a distance became less terrible in everyone's ears. If there is only one German submarine, even if it is a new type of submarine, it will only have a chance to launch at most 16 torpedoes. Even if they are all hit, it seems that they have also lost!
But in the vast sea, how could 16 torpedoes hit 16 ships respectively, which is a fantasy. Therefore, at most, less than 10 ships will be hit. On the North Atlantic, the world's most dangerous route, the losses are completely within the acceptable range.
As if to confirm everyone's guess, the explosion did not come again for a long time. An adjutant had walked over with the loss statistics message and reported how much damage was caused by the attack just now: "Bottle cap The transport ship was seriously injured and was left behind ... The Great White Bear sank ... The 1447 sank ... The Beautiful Goddess sank ... "
"Gentlemen! We don't know if more German submarines will be encountered at night! So we must speed up." The fleet commander seemed to have risen from to heaven at this moment, and he had already sunk half of the ships. Only now was told that only 4 transport ships were lost-this is really good news.
But when he was secretly happy in his heart, a transport ship behind the fleet suddenly exploded again, and a huge flame suddenly rose as high as dozens of floors. Obviously it was a transport ship full of arms. Looking at the location it is close to the center of the fleet, but unfortunately this location is not a lucky place for it.
Everyone was silent, staring at the rising water column and the flame in the distance, and it took a while to recover. Anyone with experience knows that the German submarine fired torpedoes just now, and it will definitely not be less than six ... In this case, hitting 5 ships can only be regarded as a very satisfactory result.
"It seems that we have lost another ship." The commander did not speak just now, most probably still worried. He was worried that more and more German submarines would join this strangling, but as time passed, it became clear that his worries had not materialized.
There is really only one German submarine, and this submarine can only attack once. How to see this is an encounter at sea, their fleet encountered a passing German submarine, so the German submarine launched an attack in accordance with the principle of goose plucking-this is the script, there is nothing surprising.
At dawn the next day, patrol b-17 bombers and other Allied aircraft appeared above the Allied fleet. A cruising British destroyer fleet also converged, and it seemed that the threat of the German submarine was completely lifted. The suddenly emerged German submarine became the only episode in this transportation, and everyone on board was thankful for his luck.
...
In Canada, in the building of the British intelligence ’s temporary station, an officer put down his phone and shook his head at his adjutant: "Such a thing appears on the Atlantic every day, where German submarines are almost empty Everywhere. If you just worry about changing such an important password, it is definitely a waste and loss. "
"However, the" Alpine Dog "transport fleet did encounter an attack by a German submarine. We cannot ignore this possibility. The Germans may not have time to mobilize more submarines. This is also a possibility, isn't it?" The adjutant frowned and began to argue.
The British intelligence officer shook his head and meaningfully persuaded his adjutant: "This password will expire after two months. This does not require us to scare ourselves so much, you are just too sensitive. That's it. If a German submarine is not encountered, you will still tell me: 'Germans may be trying to make a difference', let's change the password ... "
