Torpedo salvos and point of aim.

Your aiming point is a center.

2 torpedoes salvo - first goes x degrees to the left, second x degrees to the right of aiming point

3 torpedoes - first goes x degrees to the left, second to the aiming point, third x degrees to the right

4 torpedoes - first goes y degrees to the left, second x degrees to the left, third x degrees to the right, fourth y degrees to the right

All degrees are calculated from the aiming point (center).

So - in a salvo of two torpedoes aiming below the stack of C2 means that (well, it depends on choosen angle and distance to target) you're not going to hit target under the stack, and one torpedo is likely to miss going behind the target.

Disclaimer - since I don't use salvos, I took this data from Paul's magnificent tutorial and Pisces posts on this forum.
