Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat

  Chapter 65 Naval Battle IV

   I have to say that Lieutenant Colonel Becky is worthy of being an old captain. From Fang Lang's simple description, he already has a general understanding of the course of the battle, and agrees with Fang Lang's judgment, which makes Fang Lang admire him.

   But what Fang Lang didn't know was that Lieutenant Colonel Becky on the Callahan was even more shocked by his performance at this time. Unexpectedly, a cannon fodder captain who just came out of a short-term training class would have such a sense of war.

   "Major Lopez, what do you think of the captain of the House?"

"Sir, this young man is able to detect the enemy ship in the first place, quickly judge the target of the Harry's attack, and calculate the direction of interception. He is indeed an excellent destroyer captain. I think we should invite him achievement."

   "Haha. Looks like we're on the same page."

   "But sir, this is the Harry."

   Seeing the adjutant hesitant to speak, Lieutenant Colonel Becky shook his head with a smile and said:

   "Hehe. Stupid and haughty Brit, it's pathetic that we have such an ally."

   "Then, should we punish them for their behavior of disobeying military orders and firing without asking for instructions?"

   "No, no need, even if we give them an order, they will resist it. Let's pretend that nothing happened and let them continue frying fish! Let's see how they report when all their depth charges are used up."

   "Okay! Sir, I feel that the relationship between the House and the Harry is not harmonious enough! Will this create a safety hazard for our left-wing defense line!"

"Don't worry, the Germans are no longer the Germans at the beginning of the war. Their submarines have suffered a lot of damage. Even if there are wolves waiting in front of us, I believe we can take the fleet through the enemy smoothly." It was blocked by the army. However, the Harry is indeed an unstable factor, so when he applies for ammunition, he should give it a good beating."

   I have to say that although Lieutenant Colonel Becky looks down on Reinhardt, the British guy does have an unusual relationship with the Yankee. If this happens to Fang Lang, Fang Lang will definitely be sprayed to pieces.

   As for the unorganized and undisciplined behavior of the Harry, Lieutenant Colonel Becky is only going to beat them when they apply for ammunition! Sure enough, brothers are different.

   Just as the House was communicating with the Callaghan, the depth charges of the Harry finally ran out, and the sea returned to a quiet state again, and the moment Fang Lang had been waiting for for a long time finally arrived.

   "Sonar room, investigate the area on the right side of our ship to see how far this water mouse is from us."

   "Understood, sir!"

  Everyone was staring at the operation of the sonar operator, only to see the sonar operator operate, and soon a curve jumped up on the electronic screen, and the sonar operator shouted in surprise:

   "Direction 205, one nautical mile away, strong hydroacoustic effect, high-speed propeller sound, the enemy is on the right side of our ship."

  When Fang Lang heard it, he was determined and ordered directly:

   "Five depth charges, the maximum depth, at five-second intervals."

   "Yes, sir, the maximum depth, five, at intervals of five seconds."

   "Ten to the right rudder, set the course, and move forward in a roundabout."

   "Right rudder ten, the course is fixed."

  Fang Lang is preparing to form a fan position in front of the enemy, waiting for him to drill in.

  All the crew members of the House looked at Fang Lang excitedly. Although they have not eliminated the German U-boat yet, this does not prevent everyone from casting convincing eyes on him.

  Because, he can always anticipate the enemy's opportunity, accurately predict the enemy's movements in advance, and stick to his own judgment when others think he is wrong, but the result proves that he is right.

  Perhaps, this is why it is often said that the truth is often in the hands of a few!

But at the moment, the U441 boat is in a mess. Schrader's trick to escape the shell is really awesome. Hearing the constant explosion sound behind him, although it makes everyone's ears uncomfortable, everyone is very happy. You know, it's a salute to give them cover and it won't do them any harm.

But just when the rumbling of the depth charges stopped, there was a sudden "buzz" sound from above the submarine. As submariners, this sound was simply their nightmare. Everyone knows that this is the sound of sonar work. Now I think It was too late to shut down the engine and go into silence.

  The submarine that is sailing forward at the maximum speed, once locked by the enemy sonar, will be unavoidable.

   "Full starboard rudder, hurry up!" Schrader's reaction was not unpleasant. It is definitely impossible not to change direction now, because the destroyer above must have locked himself.

   Sure enough, there was the sound of a depth charge entering the water from above, and the second sound was heard five seconds later, and the third sound was heard five seconds later. Very rhythmic depth charge delivery.

  Schrader knew that he was finished, and there was a feeling of both life and life in his heart. I couldn't help feeling in my heart, what a formidable opponent! There is nothing to say to die in your hands.

When the third depth charge exploded at the stern of the submarine, the U441 boat was severely damaged. The entire submarine seemed to be pushed down into the water by a pair of invisible hands, and then rebounded by the water pressure. There was almost no energy inside the submarine. A person who stands normally. Everyone is staggering.

   Soon the fourth depth charge exploded at the bow of the boat, directly blowing a big hole in the bow of U441. In just an instant, sea water poured into the boat.

   At this time, on the Harry, Reinhardt's face was very ugly, and he was yelling at the sonar soldiers:

   "Didn't you say that the voice is down there? Why did we drop all the depth charges, but we couldn't get rid of him."

  The sonar soldier was very wronged and said in a low voice:

   "We must have encountered the German's pill thrower."

  Hearing what the sonar soldiers said, Reinhardt immediately realized that as a professionally trained destroyer captain, he certainly knew what a pill thrower was.

   "What did you do long ago, only to find out that it is a decoy bomb now. You trash. The combat situation center will help me find this damned water rat immediately."

   Before the Combat Situation Center could reply, the lookout posted a report:

   "Sir, the House is dropping depth charges."

  Linehardt immediately picked up the binoculars on the table and ran out, raising the binoculars to look at the House in the distance. After hearing the muffled sound of five depth charges exploding in the distance, there was no movement.

   This made Reinhardt puzzled, why didn't he continue to drop depth charges if the enemy was found? Are you so sure that you can use five depth charges to eliminate the enemy?

   Didn't make Reinhardt wait any longer, Fang Lang's steady voice came from the public channel soon:

"Reporting to the **** ship, the USS House sank an enemy U-boat in the direction of 205. The result has been confirmed visually. The enemy has no chance to surface, no enemy radio communication signal has been detected, and the position of our fleet has not been revealed. complete!"

   Immediately afterwards, the voice of Lieutenant Colonel Becky, the captain of the Callahan, came from the communicator:

   "Received, House! Thank you for your heroic battle. Please return to the **** position as soon as possible, over!"

  Fang Lang was actually very restless at the moment. He didn't expect that he really killed a German U-shaped submarine with his own strength.

  But he can't be too excited, he must maintain a cold image, mainly to impress his subordinates that everything is under his control.

   Let everyone have confidence in their combat command ability, so that they will execute their orders without hesitation in the future.

   "House, received, return to the **** position. Finished!"

  After putting down the communicator, he found that all the soldiers were looking at him. Fang Lang looked at each subordinate seriously, then came to the intercom in the ship, picked up the intercom and said firmly to the soldiers on the ship:

   "Yes, we killed him! This is everyone's credit, everyone is good."

   Soon the thunderous cheers of the soldiers resounded throughout the House! Whether on duty or resting, all the crew cheered loudly.

  Everyone felt that the captain was really amazing. At this time, when everyone looked at the Harry in the distance, a little sarcasm began to appear in their eyes involuntarily. After all, everyone will never forget the semaphore sent by the Harry.
