Transmigrated as the Crown Prince

"boom!"

The remaining three cargo ships cautiously sailed towards the No. 2 entrance channel. With a violent explosion, another cargo ship slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.

"!!" Jason was going crazy. Now it was no longer a question of whether he could keep his position as commander, but now it was a question of whether he might be sent to a military court.

Sixty thousand tons of special steel were sunk at once; sixty thousand tons, enough to build three battleships! He didn't think his life was worth three battleships!

General Ernest, who was cold-natured and liked to be aggressive, would never let him go.

There is a half-joking, half-serious comment about Ernest in the Navy. The original words come from his daughter: "Admiral King is the calmest man in the Navy because he spends almost all his time angry." ——He didn't have time to be nervous. President Roosevelt once said that he was a "man who shaved with a blowtorch" - even every strand of his beard was so imbued with a tough attitude that it had to be burned off with fire. His subordinates said: "Admiral Jin never said that he was God, but God said that he was Admiral Jin." This also earned him the reputation of "Almighty God".

Jason, who was almost desperate, gritted his teeth and yelled. "What do the minesweepers do for a living?! You are derelict in your duties!! I will send you all to a military court!!" What he didn't know was that the mines laid by the Germans were not traditional anchor mines, but sinking mines. ; Therefore, the US military's more traditional minesweepers naturally cannot find it. But Jensen thought it was a fish that slipped through the net due to the negligence of the minesweeper team.

The sailors on the minesweeper said that they were also innocent. They had obviously checked carefully, so why were there still mines?

After venting hysterically, Jason gasped and issued a new order. "Go to the No. 3 entrance channel to investigate. If there are any mistakes this time, I will simply shoot you!!"

Reluctantly, the mine-clearing team went to the vicinity of the No. 3 entrance channel and dragged the mine-clearing equipment around the waters. After wandering around three times in a row, they even sent divers into the water to check.

After more than an hour, the exhausted divers returned to the minesweeper one after another. "There is indeed none, unless we are blind and cannot see it." Unfortunately, this kind of mine is sunk at the bottom of the sea and is covered with sand and seaweed. Even if it is close at hand, it may not be detectable.

The captain of the minesweeper sighed helplessly. "Just now we thought it was gone, but it ended up sinking a cargo ship."

The first mate Louis next to him spoke. "It's really strange. We checked so carefully, how could something slip through the net?" It's simply unbelievable. "Are you sure it's a mine? Could it be a torpedo secretly fired by a German submarine lurking nearby? Don't the Germans like to use submarines? They also have a tactic called the 'wolf pack'?"

The captain shook his head, raised his chin and pointed at the destroyer in the distance. "If there really was a submarine, they would have discovered it long ago."

Louis shrugged. "Maybe the German submarine sank at the bottom of the sea."

Sitting on the bottom of the sea is every submarine's specialty, and it is also an important life-saving trick.

The submarine was discovered by the enemy because of its own noise. When the submarine sank to the bottom of the sea and turned off its motor, all the noise disappeared. It was equivalent to a big rock on the bottom of the sea. How could the other party know? During World War II, active sonar on destroyers could not detect submarines sitting on the seabed.

However, this method is not a panacea. Once the submarine sinks to the bottom of the sea, the destroyers on the surface will also know that the submarine is stationary somewhere. Then, the destroyer can also turn off its engines and wait quietly.

Who can outlast whom? The destroyer crews on the water basked in the sun, breathed the fresh air, and occasionally watched seagulls playing. The oxygen in the big iron tank of a submarine is limited. When the submarine cannot hold on, it thinks that the destroyer has left, so it starts up. At this time, the sound of the propeller turning will be heard by the destroyer stationary somewhere.

"Stop talking nonsense. Even if there is a submarine, it is not our business. Our duty is to ensure that there is no mine. In short, go into the water again and check carefully to see if there is anything that has slipped through the net."

The divers sighed. The captain's orders on the ship were absolute authority, and they could only obey them.

Watching the divers jump into the sea one by one, Louis continued. "Could it be a new weapon of the Germans? For example, invisible mines or something?" It is well known that the Germans like to follow fashion. Just like in the last war, they were the first to use new weapons such as poison gas, airships, flamethrowers, submachine guns, etc., said Maybe the Germans have put in some new weapons this time.

Perhaps because he thought his guess was too naive, the captain rolled his eyes and didn't respond. He frowned and stared at the calm sea, not knowing what he was thinking.

More than an hour later, the divers swore poisonous oaths and climbed back into the minesweeper, gasping for breath from exhaustion.

Seeing this, the captain sent a message to the freighter in the distance. Perhaps because they were worried about making the same mistake as the previous three freighters, these two freighters were moving extremely slowly, as slow as a snail. The sailors on the minesweeper looked eager to push forward, but what they cared more about was hoping that the cargo ship could enter the channel safely.

"Come on, hurry up!" While waiting anxiously, the cargo ship was only a few hundred meters away from the entrance channel.

boom!

It was still the familiar sound of explosions and the familiar water column. The high water column crashed back into the sea, causing waves that affected the nearby minesweeper and almost overturned it. The captain of the minesweeper hurriedly grabbed the side of the ship to steady himself, staring dumbfounded at the slowly tilting freighter, and murmured. "how so?"

"Why is this happening? Huh? Why is this happening? Ha, ha, ha!" In the base command post, Jason's face turned red and the muscles on his face kept twitching. He waved a Colt revolver in his hand and stared viciously at everyone in the room, his red eyes seeming to eat people.

No one dared to express their anger, for fear of irritating the insane commander.

Jason became more and more crazy, pointed the gun in his hand at the nearest staff officer, and roared. "is that you?!"

The staff officer swallowed nervously and said tremblingly. "Commander, what did you say?"

boom!

Along with the scream, a bloody hole appeared in the chest of the unfortunate staff officer, and he fell straight down.

The whole room suddenly became a mess, some people screamed and ran towards the door, some hid under the table and shivered, and some timid ones were so frightened that they howled. When the guards arrived after hearing the news, there were several corpses lying scattered in the room. There was a bloody hole on Jason's temple. It was obvious that he committed suicide with a gun.
