Chapter 467： Our Lady

????Warships and civilian ships are different.

For example, a developed shipbuilding industry can build supertankers of tens of thousands of tons, hundreds of thousands of tons, or even hundreds of thousands of tons, but an aircraft carrier of tens of thousands of tons does not have this capability.

The important aspect is the different levels. The anti-strike capability of warships is far stronger than that of ordinary ships. Therefore, civilian ships of tens of thousands of tons can take off fighter planes on a flat deck, but they must never enter. War zone, otherwise it's death.

???? And now, the civilian Navasota has been hit by a torpedo and can hold on to it, which is already very good. After being hit by two more shells, it has completely stopped.

???? Countless crew members jumped down from above and into the icy water, some were able to fish a lifebuoy, some did not catch anything, but they still jumped down, otherwise what else? Sink with the ship?

???? But even if you jump into the sea, what is the way to survive? There are icy waters all around, and they absolutely cannot swim to the shore hundreds of nautical miles away!

???? There is only one way to survive!

???? After falling into the water, Trafigura swam vigorously towards the German submarine over there. They had to rely on that German submarine to be rescued!

???? At this time, they only worry about the attitude of the German submarine, will they save them?

???? At this time, the hatch above the submarine command tower was also opened, wearing his navy hat, Captain Prien faced a difficult decision.

???? Save or not?

???? If he dives and then leaves, then he can easily get rid of everything here, but these people will all disappear into the cold water.

???? From a humanitarian point of view, it is difficult for Prien to slap his **** away. As an empire soldier, he has a kind of chivalry spirit.

???? Attacking British merchant ships, weakening Britain's war potential, and completely blocking British material transportation, is useful for winning the war. He performs such a task without the slightest psychological pressure. What about civilian ships? Isn't all the materials transported for war used?

???? However, the people on this civilian ship are ordinary people, not soldiers.

???? "Captain, what should I do?" Beside him, the watchman asked him. At this time, the watchman had already prepared the 20mm dual-mounted cannon.

????As a submarine, in addition to carrying torpedoes, it also carries other weapons. In addition to the 88mm gun on the deck, it is equipped with a 20mm twin machine gun and a 7.9mm machine gun on the command tower. -2 quite.

???? These people swim over, what should we do? The lookout meant to kill them, of course!

???? If one fires at this time, the sea will be full of corpses!

???? Closing his eyes, Prien hesitated and said, "No, we will take them to a safe place."

????save! During the battle, Prien's heart was as hard as iron, and now, after the battle was over, Prien's heart had the presence of the Virgin again.

???? Save them! Otherwise, they all have to die!

???? "But we don't have enough space." Hearing Prien's words, Ike, the deputy captain under the command tower, climbed up and said to him.

???? Looking at the sea, there are probably hundreds of people! Who would have thought that there would be so many people on this cargo ship? Now, if they want to let them into the submarine, they will fill the submarine.

???? Moreover, what is even more frightening is that once these people get on the submarine, there are more people than their own. In case they want to produce some moths, I am afraid that their submarine will be captured by the other party.

???? This is even more dangerous.

???? "Let them all stand on the deck. If the deck is not enough, we can drag their lifeboat." Prien said.

???? The cargo ship sank very quickly. Before it sank, several lifeboats were released. It was okay for a lifeboat to sit more than a dozen people, but there was no power.

???? Use a rope to drag them behind, and some of them stand on the deck, so that these people can be rescued.

???? "Then we won't be able to dive." The deputy captain shouted to the top.

???? "Follow the order, let's float, go to the nearest island, put them down, and we will dive again." Prien said.

???? When Prien said this, it already meant that there was no room for negotiation.

The army is not a place where democracy is concerned. What the army wants is to obey orders unconditionally. As the captain of a submarine, he is the highest authority after going out to sea. He can even directly kill disobedient subordinates.

???? Now, since he wants to do this, Ike can't object.

???? "Hang the flag of the Red Cross." Prien said: "Come up alternately and take care of these crew members."

???? When the submarine is buoying, the crew can alternately come up and breathe fresh air. At the same time, they now have one more task, which is to look after the crew!

The body was wet by the sea water, and Tok struggled up to the submarine. He was very happy to see that the submarine did not leave, but waited in place.

???? Finally, he swam to the side of the submarine. On the deck, a German submarine soldier reached out to him!

????In an instant, Trafigura knew he was safe.

???? "Thank you." Tok said in English. He gasped for breath. The swim just now made him unable to do well.

???? When he came to rest, he went to pull other personnel, one by one, next to each other.

???? Bruce also came up, his eyes still had rebelliousness.

???? "Everyone is seated, we have to listen to the arrangement of the German friend." Tok said to the person who came up.

???? Now, they are already captives, and Tok doesn't want to be out of touch.

???? These people are all fighters, but they have no weapons. Now, to live is the best hope. When they arrive in England, driving a fighter plane and holding a machine gun, it is not too late to fight the Germans!

???? When I saw the German submarine rescuing the crew who fell into the water, the lifeboats also approached.

???? The sailor at the stern threw out the rope and tied the opponent to his stern. Now, the submarine is full.

???? On the deck, densely packed people stood, behind, dragging three lifeboats, the U-47 submarine, sailed slowly eastward.

???? On the command tower, the submarine soldiers are still holding the cannon on alert. Once the sailors who come up make any changes, they will open fire without hesitation.

???? Prien returned to the control tower, where Ike continued to report to him: "Captain, this cargo ship is very strange."

???? A submarine attack requires taking photos at the same time. Otherwise, how to confirm the result? Just now, Ike took several photos of the sinking of the Navasota. At the location where the hull broke, using a magnifying glass to look at the photos, you can see the cargo transported inside.

???? That is a warplane with folding wings, beside it, there are two tanks! ??
