As everyone talked about it, the destroyer led the little black spot closer and closer, and everyone finally saw the outline of the little black spot. It was a small tonnage German submarine and the deck behind the destroyer was full of people blocking half of the submarine control tower enclosure.

Then people saw the torpedo tube in front of the submarine and the mottled marks on the submarine’s side, and saw the huge number of the brush command tower, which has long been firmly remembered by the world’s naval experts-"U211"
It has long been ready for the port military band to play the melody of German songs, and the echo of the port days has made the German navy regain its confidence in the hegemony of the ocean. With the long baton in the conductor’s hand, the drums and trombones interweave into wonderful notes and beat the hearts of all journalists.
Before the u211 submarine attacked Scarpa Bay, if you ask people what they think of the submarine, most people will tell you that the submarine is like a "thief" sneaking into someone’s backyard, breaking some bottles and stealing some tulips from the backyard.
However, if you ask people what they think of the submarine after u211 attacked Scarpa Bay, this time people will tell you that the submarine is like an assassin, cold and hiding, stabbing the most deadly sword in the most deadly place, which makes people desperate but with three points of pride.
Suddenly, there was a burst of welcome and cheers in the phalanx of naval officers and soldiers, which made them cheer for the return of their comrades-in-arms. The brilliant achievements of their comrades-in-arms encouraged them to fight bravely in the future, so they were reluctant to applaud the foreign journalists there, and they were never enthusiastic, friendly or irrelevant
The distance is closer. The destroyer has turned around and returned to continue its patrol, but the submarine is swaying and leaning against the pier. The military band is still playing loudly, but it is slightly out of rhythm. It is like a group of noisy ducks being pinched by their necks.
A special submarine springboard was built on the submarine deck, and a young sailor in charge was scrambling to lay a red carpet on the springboard. But when the first submarine sailor walked to the red carpet and jumped off the dock, many people swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
This submarine soldier is wearing a dirty cotton-padded coat, and the white navy is no different from gray. The dirty oil stains on his chest make people feel vomiting. Of course, if you look at his boots, the broken ones make people even more desperate.
The second sailor who walked on land was even more strange. The soldier looked at everyone opposite him with a lot of eyes, and then squirmed his dry lips with a strange expression. He looked a little nervous without saying a word.
The third soldier didn’t see his face clearly. As soon as his feet touched the dock floor, he cried and knelt down and kissed the concrete floor. This move startled the people around him. Even an SS officer behind Fanny held down his pistol.
The fourth gangplank walker looks much more normal because he is wearing a waterproof leather jacket outside the captain’s battle, but this man should be the captain Prien. He hasn’t cleaned his beard for several days, so people can’t recognize that this savage is sacred.
The adjutant behind him has unkempt hair and bloodshot eyes. This man is carrying a suitcase, which should contain a diary of the war and some secret documents. Some crew members are going to send personal letters.
Vice admiral submarine force commander Deng Nici walked quickly away from the crowd and reached out to his confidant "Captain Prien! Welcome back to the motherland! Your record has been sent by the four seas. "
Prien looked a little dull and held out his palm and shook hands with Deng Nici. "Thank you. I didn’t expect to see you again. We tried our best until yesterday."
What he said was not sensational. The British navy’s pursuit fleet didn’t really give up the pursuit of them until yesterday. The last two destroyers that blocked them returned overhead.
All the way, after a narrow escape, they dared to expose the snorkel to charge the submarine when they escaped from the night float. Only two days ago did they dare to surface the control tower and let everyone smoke a cigarette outside in the moonlight to ease their near-collapse mood.
They lived in a small and humid submarine cabin for a few days, and they couldn’t see the sun, the sea breeze and the fresh air. The whole submarine was full of bad smells, and almost everyone was tortured by the depressed atmosphere.
Before the action, Prien destroyed the cipher machine and cipher house, and they lost contact with German soil. These days, they don’t know their achievements or whether they can return to the motherland. They just dare not commit suicide. Sorrow supports their belief of continuing to flee.
Because they are submerged most of the time, they dare not to heat food in the kitchen, and they can eat compressed biscuits and dried fruits to satisfy their hunger. It was not until that night two days ago that they really had a luxurious supper, and Prien also received the signal and guidance to find them.
Frequent avoidance and hunting of the u211 submarine only found that they had deviated from the scheduled course for a full 75 nautical miles, so they adjusted the course and really went home. It was because they deviated from the course that the experienced Royal Navy blocked one, which is why they met two destroyers returning to Britain yesterday.
"wronged you! You are imperial heroes! The Fuehrer personally ordered me to send you to the stone castle. He wants to meet you personally! " Deng Nici said with a smile and even left tears. "You are my most precious treasures. Thank you for coming back safely."
Prien didn’t know what to do with his tears. He cried with several crew members behind Prien. They experienced the most unforgettable adventure but also the most cruel danger. The suffering of young people who fled had already exceeded the tolerable limit. When they saw their company’s true feelings, they couldn’t help but vent.
Seeing that a ceremony to welcome heroes turned into a mourning ceremony to cry for dad and shout for mom, Fanny narrowed her eyes and came out. Soon these crew members stopped crying because they saw a * * * * * * * big beauty coming out of the crowd-what idiot wants to do something shameful at this time?
"gentlemen! You can see the hardships you have experienced from you. "Fanny Prien’s beautiful voice has penetrated into everyone’s ears like a magic sound." But your feat has gone down in history. Do you want to leave a coward’s note behind this glory in the last few hours? "
She looked at the sailors "wipe your nose! Go to the lounge to shave your hair, pack your bags and get ready for gifts, because later … I’ll take you to a hall full of girls. Do you want a soft big bed to spend the night with beautiful women or do you want to take your left hand? "
Fanny glanced at her side and had already bought off people’s hearts. Deng Nici raised her eyebrows and said, "Translate my words to these sailors. Say it again. If you can’t handle it, I’ll let those reporters take photos of the German sailors and publish them in the newspaper. Then I’ll go to bed one morning and read the news to the Fuehrer myself."
"You are German soldiers! Does anyone want to be a coward? " Deng Nici hurriedly asked.
"no!" Everyone shook their heads and answered loudly.
"Tell everyone who you are?" Deng Nici once again big asked.
"We are imperial ace! We are the most powerful submarine soldiers! " Everyone replied loudly.
Soon the interview went smoothly.
Deng Nici returned to Lei Deer’s side and looked at the submarine soldiers who were originally depressed but now full of energy, quietly tilting their heads. "Originally, she took the ministerial position by virtue of her beauty."
"Now?" Lei Deer raised her mouth and looked at the beautiful back not far away with satisfaction.
"Fortunately, I was born with a talented person. Although I can’t be the greatest one, I will try my best to be a part of the greatest group," Deng Nici said with a sigh.
Lei Deer withdrew his eyes and looked at his hand. "I will also work hard."

Chapter 27 27 North Atlantic
A small thing in the rough sea has drawn waves. This metal pipe moves slowly on the sea surface, which is strange and dangerous.
A few meters of deep water seems to have lost the surging feeling of the water surface. Although it is still shaking, it seems to be much calmer here.
A huge submarine is sailing quietly, and the fish shells are crowded here, reflecting on the water surface and casting light and shadow to look mottled and vicissitudes.
Its bow is still as sharp as a knife, but its size is bigger. This submarine combines the most advanced submarine technology in Germany, and is the backbone of the German naval submarine force and the top water killer in the world.
It is equipped with diesel engine snorkel technology, which is not widely used in this world. It can charge the whole submarine with periscope depth and keep a high speed. Of course, it has a wider hull and carries more fuel and supplies to ambush its prey in more distant places.
In periscope, the degree table depicting the round field of view is a tool to judge the distance and speed, although the original is still accurate. At this moment, the captain of the German submarine is staring at his prey, a huge prey not far away
"Keep the course! Slow down and stand by! " He put his face on the periscope and ordered, "enemy ships! This is an English merchant ship! With a British flag on it! Can sink … Bow 12 Two torpedo tubes ready for water injection! Prepare to launch! "
The captain of the submarine department ordered everyone to wait for them quietly, as if waiting for an opportunity. Sharks are fierce, witty, fearless and more calm.
"aim at the target!" The captain’s eyes were still fixed on the sight, and he looked at his target intently. He reached the order when he thought it was appropriate
"The torpedo is ready!" The torpedo controller replied.
"The bow torpedo tubes No.1 and No.2 are ready!" The captain continued
"No.1 and No.2 torpedoes!" Torpedo controllers followed suit.
"launch!" The captain reach his order to attack.
"launch!" The torpedo controller pressed the button to launch the torpedo.
"Bang!" Everyone in the boat heard the sound of the torpedo launched by the submarine. With the sudden vibration of the submarine and the dull noise of the machinery, two torpedoes jetted out of the front of the u211 submarine with bubbles, leaving their unique marks on the sea and rushing to their targets quickly.
Unlike Prien’s static berthing warships, attacking opponents with torpedo weapons in actual combat is a trivial matter that can keep commanders busy for a while. Contrary to the common concept, it is very difficult for a torpedo to attack another moving surface target with a moving platform like a submarine.
This requires courage and patience to synchronize joint operations, and some captains and commanders are born with it, while others never have shooting skills and talents. Most of the time, submarine officers and men complete a powerful attack by launching torpedoes through joint operations.
When the reconnaissance sentry sees the ship on the far horizon through a special super-large telescope, he will immediately inform his officers and soldiers. If the captain decides to attack the prey that has entered his range, they will immediately deal with many problems, such as whether the ship is a friend or an enemy, a warship or a cargo ship. What is the draft?
Submarine officers will learn to distinguish the contours of these ships, and they will carry a detailed manual with them. This manual comes from the hard work of the Defence Force’s spy agency. The outline of the first side, 45 degrees and 6 degrees is recorded and marked in detail. After comparison, a lot of detailed information about each other can be known.
Then, it is further judged that the speed and direction of this distant ship are still changing, and it is calculated that it sometimes takes hours to adjust the position of the attacking ship-it is the easiest to shoot directly and play like Prien, but this situation is the least in the war.
This simple attack mode of aiming at the bow target and then launching a torpedo to reach the target, boom, and then sinking the target into the seabed is almost impossible to appear in actual combat exchange.
What often happens is that the submarine fires a torpedo when it attacks in a vertical direction or travels in the opposite direction. Therefore, the most common situation we encounter is to fire the torpedo at a certain angle and then let the torpedo hit the target or let the target hit the torpedo by experience.
The launching angle can be calculated accurately and quickly, because the submarine has a device similar to a computer. This device is called torpedo data calculator, which is a mechanical calculator. The captain estimates the position and speed of the submarine, estimates the speed, distance and route of the target ship, and then the machine will immediately calculate an angle display scale according to these parameters.
If the data is temporarily adjusted, the calculator will also change the corresponding angle, and the answer is very accurate and rapid. The result is immediately sent to the torpedo cabin, and the operator adjusts the corresponding data to set the torpedo launching angle accordingly.
After this setting is completed, once the torpedo is launched, it will travel in a straight line for a distance of less than ten yards, then turn at a special angle set by the directional indicator, and then adjust it into a straight line to rush to the target. If the captain, calculator and crew make mistakes and everyone finishes their work, the torpedo will hit their own target and completely destroy the distant ship.
The captain has estimated the target parameters, the calculator has accurately calculated the angle, and the torpedo has been adjusted. There is no possibility of failure in this attack, and soon there is a huge explosion in the distance. The soldiers told the captain that they heard the explosion. "Sir! Our torpedo hit the target! "
The periscope looked around for a week and found no other ship captain finally nodded and reached the order "submarine floating!" Let’s go and see what ship was sunk! "
"float! Watch your course! Steady! Steady! " The first mate repeated the order in detail.
Only two minutes later, the submarine rushed out of the water, revealing its slender figure and hitting the hatch. A residual sea water spilled to hit the face, and the hat on the top of the head splashed with cold.
The German captain took off his hat, shook the sea water, and then buckled his hat on his head. Then he shook off his two fur coats, picked up the telescope and enjoyed his performance, while several soldiers behind him cheered for victory.
In the distance, a British transport ship is billowing smoke, and the whole ship is slowly sinking on the deck of a German submarine. You can see the huge and conspicuous smoke with the naked eye, but from the telescope, you can see that the British crew are jumping wildly, and it seems that they also know that their ship is hopeless.
A few Englishmen are in a panic, lowering their boats and lifeboats, and some people are anxiously waiting aside, while their transport boats seem to be breaking from them due to the influx and extrusion of seawater. The fire deck spreads like a hell for one person.
