Bohai Bay!
The sea surface was undulating, and the waves were hitting the waves, splashing a few meters high. Then, it calmed down.
In the sky, a seagull that came out to look for food glided across the sea at a low altitude.
It was unknown if it was lucky, but a small fish jumped out of the sea and was caught by it.
After grabbing the fish, the seagull seemed to be frightened and quickly flapped its wings to fly back the way it came.
The bows of the white-painted warships were cruising on the sea, leaving long white trails behind.
In the leading warship, several soldiers dressed in the uniforms of the Japanese navy officers stood on the deck, as if they were discussing something.
"Everyone, I heard that the war in the northeast is in a mess. The 10th division has been completely wiped out, which has angered His Majesty the Emperor.”
"Humph, the army is useless. They only know how to bring shame to the empire.”
"The Chinese people are extremely weak and their combat strength is very low. I didn't expect that the herd of red deer would be even worse. Now, we still have to clean up the mess.”
This fleet was the Manchurian reinforcement fleet heading towards Jin Zhou.
Their main purpose was naturally not to support the battle.
This was because the largest cannon in this fleet was only 203mm.
Moreover, this battle was not in the coastal area, so their main goal was to deter Jin Zhou.
At the same time, they also bombarded the area along the way to deal a blow to the arrogance of these Chinese people.
In the sea a few kilometers away, a Type 21 submarine was slowly cruising at a silent cruising speed of 5 knots per hour in the sea 50 meters deep.
The Type 21 submarine was equipped with a new type of sonar device and underwater listening device.
They had already discovered the Japanese fleet.
In fact, the submarine had been lurking in the nearby waters two days ago.
The Air Force's reconnaissance planes had been providing these submarines with traces of the Japanese fleet.
The submarine brigade decided to ambush the Japanese fleet here.
That's right, there were four Type-21 submarines lurking nearby. Their targets were all these seven ships.
The submarine equipped with the sonar data conversion device could automatically calculate and set the firing data of the torpedoes.
Therefore, these submarines didn't need to use the current submarines at all. They had to use periscopes to aim at the torpedoes, becoming the true undersea ghost killers.
The Japanese Manchurian support fleet had never considered the existence of submarines in Bohai Bay.
Moreover, they were bold enough to ambush them with only five ships.
Therefore, they were still driving at an economical cruising speed of 18 knots.
"Target bearing 247, distance 1400 meters, speed 17.4 knots."
The sonar crew was constantly updating the data of the Miaogao's heavy patrol.
After a few minutes, the sonar technician said," Target bearing 327, distance 485 meters, speed 17.6 knots!”
The captain of the 1st Submarine Brigade, who was also the captain of submarine 1001, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Attack!"
The target ship had already entered the best launch position of the submarine, and its speed was not fast. If they did not fight, they would look down on the Japanese fleet.
After calculating the data of the torpedoes through the sonar conversion device.
The Type-21 submarine's bow's six torpedoes were opened, and heavy torpedoes shot out under the powerful water pressure.
Driven by the depth setting device and the thermal engine, the torpedoes traveled at a high speed in the sea two meters deep.
The steam engine at the tail of the ship was operating at high speed, forming a long white trail on the sea surface.
As long as the people on the Miaogao were not blind, they could basically see it.
In fact, the sentry post on the top of the mast of the Myka had discovered the torpedoes a few seconds after they surfaced.
In this era where there was no radar, the sentry post at the top of the mast became the " eyes " of the warship that could see the furthest.
Of course, seaplanes were an exception.
"Torpedoes, six torpedoes found on the right side, less than 300 meters.”
In an instant, the sentry on the mast sounded the alarm, and the alarm of the Mystique High went off.
A submarine launched a torpedoes from less than 500 meters away.
Moreover, the six torpedoes were all T-1 torpedoes that had only been in service in 1938. The maximum speed could reach 44 knots.
Even though launching at maximum speed would be too taxing on the engine, it would have a huge impact on the range.
However, it was only 500 meters away. It was nothing for the T-1 torpedoes, which had a minimum range of 6 kilometers.
The distance of less than 500 meters was only about 20 seconds for the torpedoes.
For a warship, it would take no less than 20 seconds to discover a torpedo and sound the alarm to know that it was a torpedo.
Therefore, everyone on the Miaogao was confused as to why the torpedoes were less than 100 meters away when the alarm sounded.
The officers on the deck shouted at the top of their lungs,""Torpedo, dodge the torpedoes!"
However, all of this was useless.
Out of the six fan-shaped torpedoes, the first and the second went straight through the front and back of the Myoko due to the problem of the launch angle.
The remaining three shot straight into the underwater part of the Mystique.
Everyone felt the boat shake slightly.
Then, a huge explosion erupted from the bottom of the cabin.
Three torpedoes weighing up to 1.5 tons, and a heavy cruiser weighing less than 10,000 tons.
Moreover, the Mythical Tall's heavy patrol also had a fatal problem of not having a strong structure.
One could imagine what would happen after being hit by three heavy torpedoes.
Under everyone's shocked gazes, the Mystique Tower was lifted several meters above the water.
