Chapter 119 Submarine Attack
At three o'clock in the morning on July 3012, [-] in the Tang Dynasty, Olekach, the commander of the Sharad Royal Navy's attack fleet, finally received a telegram from the Black Fish and sailed under the sea for almost ten hours. , The submarine force finally entered the port of Newport City.
It took an hour longer than expected for the submarine force to arrive at the port of Newport City, and only [-] of the [-] Blackfish-class submarines of the Royal Sharad Royal Navy were left at this time, and the other five Blackfish-class submarines were due to their own Faulty or hit the rocks, they have sunk halfway.
The Blackfish is the first of the Blackfish-class submarines, and the captain of the Blackfish, Vignellita, was appointed as the interim commander of the eighteen Blackfish-class submarines.
After three o'clock in the morning, the sky was already a little bright. After the captain of the Black Fish submarine, Vignellita, ordered to raise the periscope, he found a large row of warships moored in the northwest of the Black Fish submarine, including several Pre-dreadnought and ironclad battleship.
At this time, the Independent Fleet docked dozens of warships at the numerous berths in the port of Xingang City, including nine Edward VII-class pre-dreadnought battleships of the No. 17 battleship fifth squadron, and the No. .20 Four battleships of ten ironclad battleships.
In addition to the nineteen battleships, the independent fleet also deployed ten light cruisers in a light cruiser formation and eighteen destroyers in two destroyer formations in the port of Xingang City, four of which were not in the port. They were patrolling the waters near the port, but they didn't find any hungry wolves under the sea surface, which had sneaked into the port of Newport City.
The captain of the Blackfish submarine, Vignellita, saw battleships with a displacement of at least [-] tons in the distance from the periscope. He couldn't help licking his lips excitedly, and sent a message to the commander of the attacking fleet, Olekach. After the telegram was sent, an order was given to the remaining Blackfish-class submarines to attack freely.
The Blackfish submarine then quietly approached the port pier. The periscope protruded out of the water for a while, and disappeared under the sea for a while. The flashing lens was like a hungry wolf's eyes glowing green, greedily spying There are thirteen targets, and periscopes like the eyes of a hungry wolf. Unfortunately, the dozens of warships in the independent fleet in the port of Xingang City are unaware of this.
The target selected by the Black Fish submarine finally entered the optimal attack distance of the submarine, and the captain Vignellita immediately issued an order: "Adjust the attack angle of the Black Fish! The submarine is ready for a speed dive!"
Because the water is too deep and the water pressure is too high, the torpedo cannot be launched, so at this time the Black Fish submarine has risen to a depth of five meters from the sea surface.
The first officer of the Blackfish submarine, Georgi, quickly reported: "Captain, the best attack angle has been reached, and the speed dive is ready!"
Captain Vignellita then ordered: "Inject water into the No. 1 and No. 2 torpedo tubes!"
After a while, the first mate Georgi reported: "Captain, the No. 1 and No. 2 torpedo tubes have been filled with water!"
Captain Vignellita immediately shouted: "Torpedoes No. 1 and No. 2 are launched! It's time for our Sharad Royal Navy to avenge its shame!"
"Tom-tom--" Two 533mm torpedoes were launched from the launch tube, and soon drilled to the surface of the sea, and rushed towards the Edward VII-class former dreadnought battleship Jianli with a full load displacement of 17200 tons in the Independent Fleet. .
About twenty seconds later, the two 533mm torpedoes all hit the Jianli, and there was a violent explosion. Soon after, there were more explosions in the port of Xingang City, and other Heiyu-class submarines also responded. The respective selected targets fired torpedoes.
Two 533mm torpedoes hit Jianli's left side armor almost simultaneously. The 228mm armor on Jianli's left side failed to withstand the two 533mm torpedoes. After the explosion, two large A hole appeared on the left side of the Jianli, and the turbulent sea water poured into the Jianli's ship.
After the Jianli was attacked by torpedoes, the naval officers and soldiers on the Jianli who were still sleeping were suddenly woken up. Next, the damage control personnel of the Jianli quickly sealed off the flooded cabin, so that the seawater would not continue to pour into the ship.
Thanks to the 533mm torpedoes equipped by the Royal Sharad Navy, the power is not too great. If it is the 533mm torpedoes equipped by the Independent Fleet, maybe two torpedoes are enough to sink the Jianli.
Originally, the captain of the Blackfish submarine, Vignellita, was going to look for a second prey after launching two torpedoes at the Jianli. He also used the remaining two 533mm torpedoes of the Blackfish submarine. Can carry four torpedoes.
However, Vignellita soon discovered that the battleship hit by the two 533mm torpedoes of the Black Fish did not seem to have suffered fatal injuries, so Vignellita made a decisive decision and sent the remaining two 533mm torpedoes of the Black Fish to It also launched towards the Jianli.
For a battleship like the Jianli, it takes at least ten minutes to start up. Therefore, when the Black Fish launched a torpedo for the second time, the Jianli was still parked at the berth. As a result, the Black Fish launched the second torpedo. None of the two 10mm torpedoes were wasted, and they all hit the left side armor of the Jianli.
The most terrible thing is that there was a 533mm torpedo that went directly through a large hole before, and exploded inside the hull of the Jianli, instantly detonating an ammunition depot. The former VII-class dreadnought battleship Jianli sank sharply amidst bursts of violent explosions, and soon sank to the bottom of the sea.
Because of the depth of water in the port of Xingang City, after the Jianli sank, a small part of the upper hull was exposed above the water.
The thirteen Blackfish-class submarines that successfully entered the port of Xingang City launched a total of 52 torpedoes, 47 of which hit the target, and the other five torpedoes failed after launching.
The results of 47 533mm torpedoes were very brilliant. A total of two Edward VII-class pre-dreadnought battleships and five ironclad battleships were sunk in the Independent Fleet, and four Edward VII-class pre-dreadnought battleships and two ironclad battleships were seriously injured.
Although the independent fleet is not equipped with submarines yet, the naval officers and soldiers of the independent fleet in the port of Xingang City quickly judged that they were attacked by enemy submarines.
After the ten light cruisers and fourteen destroyers in the port were activated, they immediately blocked the entrance and exit of the port with depth charges, and dropped a large number of depth charges into the sea water in the port.
The speed of the Blackfish-class submarines underwater was really slow. As a result, before ten light cruisers and fourteen destroyers were activated, none of the submarines could escape from the port of Newport City. In the end, eleven Blackfish-class submarines were bombed by depth charges. Shen, only two submarines managed to escape, including Vignellita's Blackfish submarine.
