"Thank you for your support." At this time, on the dock, German captain Terry said to Carlos, the person in charge of the dock.
This Carlos is also an authentic German. His grandfather came to Argentina with his family more than fifty years ago, and has since settled here. After these years of development, they have already thrived in Argentina. .
"These are what we should do." Carlos said: "We slaughtered a few hundred cows and made fresh canned beef. We prepared the best for our own people."
Argentina is a large livestock country with countless cattle and sheep. In order to supply the German army, they are slaughtered on the spot to make canned beef to maintain the freshest taste.
The route of German advancement is absolutely confidential. However, in many cases, some circumstances can be speculated. For example, now, German supply ships come here for replenishment, and they are loaded with high-grade aviation fuel. They must be Can guess something.
They are also very excited. The flag of Germany has flown throughout Europe. As a German, its status in South America has suddenly become higher. The whole of Argentina is full of confidence in the future.
With the help of Germany, it was easy to retake the Malvinas Islands, which had always been occupied by the British.
"Well, it seems that it will be installed tonight and we will leave overnight." Terry said.
As long as the German fleet is docked, it will be supported at the highest level. For example, after they dock, the terminal mobilizes all forces to carry out the first loading operation for them. Tonight, they will be fully loaded.
"Yeah, my friend, I'm already looking forward to our next meeting."
The two chatted and looked at the busy scene on the dock. At this time, they didn't know that they were staring at them under the water in the distance.
This was totally an accident.
The U.S. Navy’s Catshark-class submarine Horse Mackerel originally served in the Pacific Fleet. Now, with the return of Midway Island, there are not too many problems in the Pacific for the time being. Even if the island countries want to continue to make trouble in the Pacific, they have already Can't afford to turn over any storm.
Therefore, a large number of submarines were transferred to the Atlantic Ocean, preparing to attack European shipyards. Although anti-submarine facilities appeared in the shipyards, the early submarines suffered great losses, but the U.S. Navy immediately changed its tactics. , Wandering in the sea outside, waiting for opportunities at any time.
The horse mackerel was almost the last to pass. It missed several times of daily routine contact time. When it received the news, it had been a week.
At that time, it happened to be hide-and-seek in the South Pacific and the warships of several island countries, and the supply was running out. Therefore, after careful consideration, Captain Bill decided to go from the south of South America, just in time for the Falkland Islands to supply it.
So it moved all the way.
This is a new generation of submarines newly built by the United States. The displacement has been enlarged to 2,400 tons. It belongs to the category of large submarines and is suitable for ocean operations. The U.S.'s transformation is rapid. When it discovered that the Atlantic Ocean was dominated by the Germans, it immediately began a counterattack. Submarines were the best weapon.
The US submarine force has also been rapidly expanding.
However, it has not changed into an elongated drop shape like the German submarine. It mainly sails underwater. It still uses surface navigation as the main method.
In the Pacific Ocean, it has always been in a state of surface navigation. After turning around Cape Horn, it came to the Falkland Islands. After supplementing enough supplies, it planned to cross the Atlantic Ocean and set up an ambush at the place instructed by the headquarters.
However, while sailing, it found a German oil and water supply ship!
In an instant, it was very curious.
The ship was not flagged with the German flag, and even the ship's number on the ship's side was blocked. Suddenly, Bill was curious.
Keep up with that boat!
Because of the lack of a snorkel, Bill could only take risks and use the state of surface navigation, following far behind the opponent, and he could only see the opponent’s mast. In this way, he followed all the way to the Argentine capital. Entered the diving state, began to approach and observe quietly.
"The German supply ship is full of cargo in Argentina. Where are they going?" Observing all this from the periscope, Bill was rather strange.
The Germans have already laid down Greenland and plan to cross the sea from Greenland, pass through Canada, and enter the United States. Almost everyone knows this.
Even in small restaurants on the street, people talk about this topic.
In this case, the main force of the Germans should be in the north. How could such a large supply ship appear in South America?
Strange ~EbookFREE.me~ It's so strange.
If it is an ordinary cargo ship, such as transporting a large number of livestock from Argentina to Europe, it is normal, but this kind of supply ship is too unusual.
There must be a problem!
"Captain, shall we fire?" the chief mate on the side asked.
Now, as long as you can be sure that the other party’s ship is a German cargo ship, you can open fire. Now, the two countries are in a state of confrontation.
Submarine, as a hidden killer hidden underwater, destroying enemy cargo ships is a major task. In history, Germany did the most, and Americans did not less. Most of the sunk tonnages were cargo ships.
"No, let's follow it and see where it goes." Captain Bill is more experienced, and at the same time, he also has a strong premonition in his heart, it seems that he is discovering a big German secret!
He can only wait quietly in the water.
The technology of the United States is backward. It is one generation behind Germany in all aspects, and the same is true for submarines.
Even for diesel-electric submarines, Germany has realized the snorkel, which can sail underwater for a long time, and other countries, in history, only discovered this kind of operation by the Germans after the end of World War II, and then used them one after another. On his own submarine.
Not to mention that now, Germany has begun to have AIP submarines and nuclear submarines, leading the United States.
The current horse mackerel can only use batteries underwater. If you want to track the German supply ship while sailing, you can only venture on the surface.
Fortunately, when the other party set sail, it happened to be at night. As the captain of the submarine, he must have enough patience. He commanded his submarine and followed carefully. When I saw the other party continuing to go south and preparing to bypass Tierra del Fuego in the southern tip of South America, I became even more excited. This is a big discovery!
