What Lieutenant Colonel Tsuno, the captain of the submarine No. 751 at the Japanese Navy's Sumatra base, didn't know was that the submarine he commanded was currently approaching the sea area where an astonishingly large division troop transport formation and escort fleet were about to pass.
Lieutenant Colonel Guan Ye was experienced in commanding submarines. At the same time, he was also a very cautious officer. When the Imperial Army was fighting desperately with the Allies on the Australian battlefield, his submarine unit was ordered to intercept and transport weapons, ammunition and supplies to the Allies. The Allied supply fleet of logistics supplies cut off the Allied sea supply lines.
That experience still leaves Lieutenant Colonel Guan Ye with lingering fears. The opponent of the Imperial Navy¡¯s submarine force was the China Division fleet that escorted the Allied logistics transport fleet. After several months of competition, Lieutenant Colonel Guan Ye¡¯s former comrades-in-arms were all laid to rest in Dongyin. In the deep seabed of the ocean, the anti-submarine capabilities of the China Division fleet caused the Imperial Navy submarine force to suffer a lot and suffered heavy losses.
After several months of blockade of the East Indian Ocean and the battle at the Australian Allied Maritime Logistics Border, the submarines at the Imperial Navy's Sumatra Island Submarine Base have been replaced several times. The current "571" submarine is definitely from the Imperial Navy's Sumatra Island Submarine Base. A veteran, a hard-core existence. Therefore, although the commander of the base submarine force has the rank of colonel, he is quite polite to the lieutenant colonel.
With the victory of the Imperial Japanese Army in the Battle of Australia, the battle with the Chinese Navy fleet in the East Indian Ocean also ended. Lieutenant Colonel Guan Ye was unwilling to recall that experience, let alone go deeper into this land where many years had been buried. The sad waters of the Imperial Navy elite and their old friends and comrades-in-arms.
This time, it was a routine patrol under orders. Originally, the commander of the submarine force did not dare to supervise Lieutenant Colonel Noh. This veteran-level subordinate had more than 20 submarines in the base. He could send any one for the routine patrol, but only The "751" cannot do it. If there is no combat mission, the commander would not dare to send this submarine to do low-level tasks such as routine cruises!
But Lieutenant Colonel Guan Ye came to ask for a fight. The reason was, "Your Excellency, Commander, I have been bored at the base for a long time. I want to go to the bottom of the East Indian Ocean to relax. I hope you will arrange for my submarine to complete this cruise mission!"
The commander of the submarine force, of course, would not refuse such a proactive request for war. He agreed immediately and praised his respected subordinates throughout the submarine force. That's all, he took charge of Lieutenant Colonel No.'s "751" The submarine embarked on a journey of no return. A routine cruise to relax and a call for battle out of boredom made Lieutenant Colonel Guan Ye and dozens of Japanese naval officers and soldiers never go back.
Not far from the Japanese Navy submarine "751", a division fleet submarine with hull number "269" was approaching. However, because of the long distance, the sonar radars of both sides did not detect each other. The directions are opposite, but they are all on the same channel. The submarines at the Japanese Navy's Sumatra Island base are very familiar with the conditions on the bottom of the East Indian Ocean. The same is true for the submarines of the division fleet.
When the Japanese army and the Allied forces were fighting in the Australian battlefield, in the dark seabed of this area, the submarines of both sides fought more than once. Under the seemingly calm sea, there was also smoke and flesh flying everywhere, just in the Chagos Islands More than ten Japanese submarines were buried in and in the surrounding waters.
The two submarines were coming towards each other. Because they were too far apart, they had not yet discovered each other. The mentality of the commanders on both sides was absolutely different. Lieutenant Colonel Guan Ye came to perform this routine cruise mission with a relaxed mood.
The division fleet submarine "269" came with the order of the detachment. The captain, Major Zhang Yuduo, although he is only a teenager, is a veteran captain and has served in the fleet submarine detachment for many years. Ordinary soldiers started working and walked step by step to the captain's position.
"Did the sonar radar find anything?" Zhang Yuduo asked the sonar officer with eyes.
¡°Captain, everything is normal now, the sonar has not found anything!¡± the sonar officer replied concisely.
"Okay, sonar, pay attention, this waterway is also frequented by ghost submarines!" Zhang Yuduo ordered. Once he is familiar with this waterway, he can know everything with his eyes closed, where are the reefs, where are the undercurrents, and where are the corals? The mountains are all well known.
At the same time, Zhang Yuduo is very confident about the sonar radar equipped on his submarine. The "Sky Eye" series radar submarine model developed by the Special Equipment Research Institute of Dingbian Military Industry Bureau has a detection range and accuracy that is several times ahead of the sonar radar of Japanese submarines. This is It's his other pair of eyes.
On the dark seabed of the East Indian Ocean, the distance between the two submarines of the Japanese army and the division is gradually approaching. . . . . .
On the sea, the troop transport formation and escort fleet have sailed through the waters of the Chagos Islands, and are considered to be out of the cruising range of the combat aircraft of the 15th Air Force of the Japanese Air Force on Sumatra Island.
After eating breakfast, Tang Qiuquan said to Tang Qiusheng: "Brother Qiusheng, you take a rest, I will go to the headquarters!"
Tang Qiuli nodded easily and didn't care. He didn't know what his cousin Tang Qiuquan was thinking at the moment. The threat from the air had been lifted, but the threat from the Japanese submarine at the bottom of the sea had not yet been lifted.
With several staff officers, Tang Qiuquan hurriedly walked into the command cabin. Major General Xin Xiguo, chief of staff of the fleet, was drawing something with a pencil on the large chart on the table.
Tang Qiuquan walked to the chart, frowned slightly, and said: "Xi Guo, the formation is about to enter the next sea area. I am very worried about the Calais Channel. While escorting the Australian Allied transport ship formation, the Japanese submarine Most of them attack us from this waterway! Do you have any reports from the submarine detachment?¡±
Xin Xiguo raised his head and replied: "Commander, there has been no report of the discovery of Japanese submarines yet. In accordance with your order, I have ordered the submarine detachment to carry out all-round vigilance in the waters where the troop transport formation passes. The vigilance range has been expanded. to a safe distance.¡±
"How many submarines have the submarine detachment deployed on Calais Road?" Tang Qiuquan continued to ask.
"The boats are '269' boat, '270' boat and '273' boat. Among them, the '269' boat is at the front!" Xin Xiguo replied.
"Oh! Is it Zhang Yuduo's submarine No. 269?"
"Yes, Commander, it is the submarine commanded by Major Zhang Yuduo!"
"Zhang Yuduo's submarine is at the front, so I feel relieved!" Tang Qiuquan couldn't hide his admiration. In front of his eyes, a young officer's heroic figure appeared.
After thinking about it, Tang Qiuquan felt that he should be more cautious. He continued to order: "Xi Guo, order the fleet anti-submarine aircraft group to immediately dispatch anti-submarine aircraft to patrol the waters of the Calais Channel. In addition, order Wu Zhenjiang to start escorting the troop transport fleet. !¡±
On the dark seabed of the Eastern Indian Ocean, Major Zhang Yuduo commanded the submarine to bypass a reef on the seafloor. Then, in the Calais Channel with a very complex topography, it passed through several undercurrents, like a large and flexible shark, shuttled through the water hidden under the sea. of cliffs.
The sailors were all busy at their respective posts. The sound of the submarine's propeller churning the seawater penetrated clearly. Suddenly, the expression on the sonar radar officer's face suddenly tightened. He heard the sound of the radar echo. There was something different, and experience told him that the sonar waves had detected an unknown object.
"Report to the captain, the sonar has detected an unknown object. Because the distance is still far away, the identity of the target cannot be determined!" the sonar radar officer reported loudly.
"Oh?" Zhang Yuduo raised his eyebrows and gave a concise order: "Slow down and use sonar to determine the target's position, identity, and distance from our submarine!"
"Captain, what is this unknown object most likely to be?" the deputy captain, who came from the Submarine Branch of the Guangzhou Military Academy to do a submarine internship, asked quietly.
Zhang Yuduo sneered slightly and said: "Although the identity of the device has not yet been identified, I can be sure that it is a Japanese submarine. The Calais Channel is a submarine of the Japanese Navy's Sumatra Island submarine base. It is the only way to enter the East Indian Ocean. It is nearby. In the sea area, there are many battles with ghost submarines!¡±
More than 20 minutes later, the sonar radar officer reported again, "Captain, the sonar radar has confirmed that the unknown object is a Japanese Haida-2 submarine, which is 15,000 meters away from our boat and continues to approach. !¡±
"Have you found any other Japanese submarines?"
"No!"
"Okay!" Zhang Yuduo smiled coldly and gave the order, "Turn off the active sonar, turn on the passive sonar, immediately enter the ambush position ahead, and then enter the static suspension state, and the torpedo of the boat will start filling with water!"
This is the advantage of the advanced performance of sonar radar. At this moment, the oncoming Japanese submarine has not yet discovered the "269", but all its whereabouts are under Zhang Yuduo's control.
Following Zhang Yuduo's order, the submarine No. 269 entered the ambush position, and then floated motionless in the sea water. The boat's torpedo launcher was opened, and the passive sonar was turned on, like a shark lying silently. Waiting for the prey to arrive.
Twenty minutes later, the sonar officer reported: "Captain, the sonar signal from the Japanese submarine has been received, and it has entered the effective range of my torpedo!"
"Turn on active sonar to locate the Japanese submarine, and prepare torpedoes for launch!" Zhang Yuduo gave the order concisely.
The active sonar of the submarine No. 269 was turned on, and sound waves invisible to the naked eye rippled rapidly using seawater as the medium.
"Pop!" The sonar officer of the Japanese Haida Type 2 submarine "751" clearly heard the sound of sound waves hitting the submarine, and suddenlyHis face turned pale. He was an experienced sonar officer and knew what the impact of active sonar meant. It was the opponent's accurate defense of locating his submarine and the prelude to the torpedo attack!
But sadly, he did not hear any abnormal signals in the passive sonar, "Ghost from the bottom of the sea!" He hurriedly shouted: "Report to the captain, our boat was actively detected by unknown sonar!"
