"Woo!"
A shrill siren sounded on the "Montana" Battleship. After hearing this voice, everyone's expressions suddenly changed.
"Damn, what's going on?" General Haspen Kimmel was furious. He was originally admiring the American Navy 1st Capital Ships formation destroying the German navy base with powerful artillery fire. Now, suddenly, the alarm bells sounded.
"General, Radar found dozens of Torpedo boats approaching us at high speed!" A staff officer ran into Commander and reported.
"What? Torpedo boat?" Admiral Haspen Kimmel's face suddenly changed.
"Damn Germany people, did they actually ambush the Torpedo boat here? It's really despicable!" Admiral Haspen Kimmel's face became very ugly. He knew very well that those Torpedo boats were no different from mosquitoes in front of the huge Capital Ships. However, the Heavy Torpedo carried by those Torpedo boats pose a fatal threat to these huge Capital Ships. Although the armor of 'Montana-class' Battleship is very thick, the underwater mine protection is also very good. But if you are hit by Heavy Torpedo, you will still pay a heavy price.
"Order the outer destroyers and Light Cruiser to intercept the Torpedo boats belonging to the Germany people. They must not be allowed to pose a threat to us!" Admiral Haspen Kimmel ordered through gritted teeth.
"Yes, General."
In fact, the destroyers of American fleet and Light Cruiser began the attack without the need for Admiral Hasband Kimmel to issue an order. They also discovered the Germany Torpedo boat approaching at high speed.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The main guns and secondary guns of Light Cruiser and destroyers were all firing wildly. Dense shells fell like raindrops, hitting those Germany Torpedo boats.
The shells exploded in the sea, splashing high water columns. The Torpedo boats were like small boats in a storm, and they might be overturned by strong winds and waves at any time.
However, these Torpedo boats of Germany are not ordinary Torpedo boats, but high-speed Torpedo boats, with a maximum speed of forty knots. These high-speed Torpedo boats are like arrows, approaching several Battleship ships of the US military at high speed.
"Boom!"
A Torpedo boat was hit by a 127mm shell fired by a destroyer. For the Torpedo boat with a displacement of only a few dozen tons, this has already posed a fatal threat to it. A large hole was blown out of the hull and a fire broke out.
However, more Torpedo boats are still moving forward at high speed.
These Torpedo boats were originally ambush not far from American fleet. After that, it sailed at high speed again. By the time American fleet discovered them and intercepted them, it was already too late.
"Launch Torpedo!" Submarine Captain of a Torpedo boat ordered.
At this moment, they were less than three kilometers away from American Navy's 'Ohio' number Battleship. Although, if you get closer, the hit rate will be higher. But American fleet's defensive firepower is too powerful. If it continues to get closer, I'm afraid it will be torn into pieces by American fleet's artillery fire before it arrives.
"Bang, bang!"
Four Torpedo were shot out of the launch tube, fell into the sea, and then rushed towards the 'Ohio' number Battleship at high speed.
After launching Torpedo, the Torpedo boat immediately turned to escape. With the small size of these Torpedo boats, they are really invulnerable to the American fleet. As long as they are hit, they will often die. Therefore, after launching Torpedo, it is better to escape as soon as possible. As for whether he can escape, it is very difficult to say.
German Navy's other Torpedo boats also began to launch Torpedo.
For a moment, Heavy Torpedos were launched one by one, rushing towards the Battleships of American fleets at high speed. Twenty-five Torpedo boats, excluding the five that were destroyed before they had time to launch Torpedo, the remaining twenty boats successfully launched Torpedo. A total of eighty 533mm Heavy Torpedos were shot at American fleets and those Battleships.
"Torpedo found on the port side, avoid!" The sailor of the Battleship number 'Ohio' spotted the Torpedo approaching at high speed and shouted loudly.
Although 'Montana-class' Battleship has specially enhanced lightning protection. However, no one wants to really try to see if they can resist Torpedo. This is tantamount to making a joke with your own life! Once Torpedo hits and causes great damage to the battleship, the consequences will undoubtedly be very serious. Even if the speed is only affected by this, it will be very fatal. After all, after daybreak, German Navy's shore-based aircraft and Carrier-based aircraft will definitely participate in the attack. By then, will these American Navy and Capital Ships who are under Encirclement Offensive still be able to escape?
The full load displacement of the 'Ohio' Battleship is as high as 72,000 tons. This is already an out-and-out maritime giant.
After discovering the Torpedo boat of German Navy, the 'Ohio' number Battleship had given up its attack on the Germany base and began to accelerate, preparing to evade Torpedo. Now, the battleship's speed has increased to more than twenty knots.
However, in front of Heavy Torpedo with a speed of up to 40 knots, the 'Ohio' number Battleship could only watch the enemy Torpedo continue to approach.
However, the luck of 'Ohio' number Battleship is relatively better. Four 533mm Heavy Torpedo failed to hit it. Three Torpedo were directly missed, and the other Torpedo passed under the belly of the 'Ohio' number Battleship, without causing any damage to it.
"God bless!" After discovering that Torpedo did not explode, the United States sailors on board the Battleship number 'Ohio' could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. Everyone has a feeling of being left behind. After all, if Torpedo explodes under the belly of 'Ohio' number Battleship, the consequences will be disastrous. The armor on the bottom of the ship is not too thick. Once it is hit by Heavy Torpedo, it will be powerful enough to blow a big hole in the bottom of the ship. By then, even 'Ohio' number Battleship will be unable to eat and walk around.
However, when the sailors aboard the Ohio Battleship relaxed, they did not realize that the crisis was once again approaching them.
A Germany submarine lurking in this area was eyeing them. This submarine is less than two kilometers away from the 'Ohio' number Battleship.
"Torpedo prepare, launch!" Submarine Captain decisively gave the order to launch Torpedo.
A total of six 533mm Heavy Torpedos were launched from the submarine's Torpedo launch tube and attacked the 'Ohio' number Battleship at high speed.
