super battleship

Chapter 8 Undersea Raid

After a while, sure enough, a large group of British fighter planes came over the previous location of the Prinz Eugen.

A large group of fighter planes circled around the position given by the reconnaissance plane several times, but no trace of any warship was found!

"Report to the commander of the fleet, this is the first strike team, we have not found any enemy ships, repeat, we have not found any enemy ships!"

At this time, Fleet Commander Campbell on the British aircraft carrier who received the telegram was stepping up analysis of the situation with the staff group.

"The first strike team did not find the German warships, Duncan, what do you think?" Fleet Commander Campbell asked Chief of Staff Duncan.

"Commander, according to the previous patrol plane's reconnaissance and intelligence analysis, the opponent must be in this sea area. Combined with the previous intelligence, we speculate that the opponent's warship has a super high speed. Our staff team agreed that the opponent may have left this sea area by virtue of the high speed. ! But according to the time, the opponent must not have run too far! It’s just that the direction of the first strike team may run counter to the opponent!”

"What you said makes sense! If this is the case, it may be difficult for us to find the enemy ship! You must know that according to the forecast of the intelligence agency, the weather may remain cloudy and rainy for the past few days, and our aircraft's vision will be affected! And Our main task is to ensure that the retreat from Dunkirk can proceed smoothly! It is impossible to spend time tracking down the missing German warship!" Commander Campbell said.

"Your Excellency, the staff group has already considered the situation you mentioned. Our opinion is to ensure the retreat as the main purpose. As for the German warship trying to hide, we don't care at all! As long as the Germans don't want us to go smoothly If we retreat, it will definitely come out by itself, we just need to catch the fish in the urn and wait for this cunning German warship to take the bait," Duncan said sinisterly.

"We just need to send all the destroyers to keep on alert around the aircraft carrier, and then send a large number of patrol planes to patrol and investigate 24 hours a day. That German warship will definitely jump out and fight us head-on! All we have to do is not Divide the troops and force the opponent to confront us head-on! We must maintain our superiority in strength, we must never divide our troops, lest we be defeated by the opponent one by one!"

"Based on our analysis of Zhang Fan, he will definitely not leave easily. He must be waiting for us to divide our troops and defeat them one by one! As long as we maintain our superiority in strength, the worst situation is that Zhang Fan dare not show up, but our The mission can still be completed!"

"Yes, the analysis is very thorough. I agree with your plan. You must have made a plan, so follow your plan!" Commander Campbell ordered!

"Yes! Your Excellency, Commander! Please look forward to our follow-up performance!"

After finalizing the plan, the British squadron immediately recalled the strike team and sent more patrol planes to start large-scale investigations!

At this time, the Anglo-French coalition forces in Dunkirk were immediately excited when they received the news that friendly warships were approaching!The once-interrupted retreat resumed!

"Oh! That damned German battleship is gone!"

"It's our British fleet, lo and behold! That's the aircraft carrier HMS Radiant! It's the German's turn at last!"

"Yeah! It's not good to be harassed by the planes of the Germans, let our carrier planes teach them a lesson!"

At this time, the soldiers of the British and French allied forces saw their aircraft carrier fleet appear on the sea, and their morale was greatly boosted!British soldiers are full of confidence in the Royal Fleet of the British Empire!Who wants the British Royal Fleet to be the only overlord on the sea in the past 100 years!Although Britain is weak now, most British people are still immersed in the dream of the empire on which the sun never sets!

Slowly, the entire fleet came to the sea area where the Prinz Eugen was located before!Suddenly, the sonar of a British destroyer detected a huge echo!
"Sonar operator! What's going on!" asked the captain who saw the sonar operator deafened by the huge sonar echo.

"Captain! There is something in front, very big, very big!" The sonar operator was already a little incoherent

"Bastard! Tell me clearly, what the hell is it! Have you discovered a submarine?"

"No! It's not a submarine. The submarine won't be this big! It's a huge thing, much bigger than the submarine!" the sonar operator replied.

"Damn it! Sound the alarm! Immediately notify the fleet commander that an unknown giant object has been found underwater! This ship will immediately start fighting!"

At this time, Zhang Fan, who was using the periscope to observe, noticed the abnormality of the British destroyer ahead, and immediately guessed that he had been spotted!

"Sure enough, the battleship is too large to be underwater! It is impossible to escape the sonar detection! But even so, it still avoided the first wave of strikes from the carrier-based aircraft!"

"Sound the alarm! Float urgently! Directly raid the British fleet, we can't wait any longer!" Zhang Fan ordered
"Woo! Woo!" The harsh siren resounded throughout the ship!The Prinz Eugen, which had been almost stationary, suddenly turned on its propellers, and under the huge power, the entire battleship began to rush towards the water surface at high speed!

The Prinz Eugen, which had already accelerated, caused a huge commotion under the water surface!At this time, even a fool knows that there is a big guy hiding under the water!
"It's impossible. Could it be that the German battleship has been hiding under the water! This is a battleship and not a submarine!" Fleet Commander Campbell said angrily!

"All the destroyers go up and hit me hard with torpedoes! I want this German battleship to stay on the bottom of the sea forever!"

Under the urging of the fleet commander, a large number of destroyers frantically gathered towards the shadow of the bottom!The destroyers in the front row have even started launching torpedoes!

"Maximum speed! Prepare to resist the torpedo attack! Everyone prepare to resist the impact!" Zhang Fan had just finished speaking, and a huge shock almost threw him out of the captain's seat!
"We've been shot!" the deputy captain Mark shouted loudly!
"Don't worry about it! Go forward at full speed!" Just after Zhang Fan finished speaking, there was another huge shock!

"Captain! This ship has been hit by [-] torpedoes! The hull is damaged by [-]%, the armor is damaged by [-]%, and the power is slightly reduced! Self-repair has begun, and it is estimated that it will take [-] hours and [-] minutes to complete the repair!" Zero said!

"Hey! Zero! What I need at this time is the time to break through the water! I don't care about damage to the hull!"

Zero was silent for a while and said, "There are still [-] seconds to break through the water!"

"[-]"

"[-]"

. . . .

"[-]"

"[-]" broke through the water!
A huge water column suddenly rose from the sea level!The Prinz Eugen rushed out of the water at an elevation angle of up to [-] degrees, and then pressed hard on the water!There was a shocking wave!
"Order all the artillery to fire! Target the opponent's aircraft carrier! Charge with all your strength!" Zhang Fan ordered loudly

"Okay, boys, have you heard the captain's order? There are enemy ships around, don't save me ammunition, just beat them hard!" the deputy captain Mark roared at the top of his lungs!
