Sun Long was the captain of the fixed-point reconnaissance submarine. This young naval lieutenant was standing on the island of the submarine in the wind and waves, staring firmly ahead.
Later generations of military historians like to use the term "assassins in the sea" to describe submarines. In fact, this is not accurate. It is true that submarines have many similarities with assassins in terms of combat characteristics, and they also have the assassin's "little blood".
This characteristic is "weak defense". However, compared to the real assassins recognized by the world, submarines are at a disadvantage in terms of speed compared to their enemies.
If the opponent was just a ship, even a heavy patrol, Sun Long would not be as "cautious" as he is now. Compared with submarines from other countries, Chinese submarines maintain an absolute lead in many aspects. For example, the water drop type
A hull without unprofessional weapons such as naval guns can make it faster and dive faster. For example, after using advanced batteries, it can lurk underwater for a longer time... As for China's Ming-class and Song-class
For submarine designers, what they are most proud of is the powerful combat power of Chinese submarines. After being equipped with submarine-launched torpedoes, Chinese submarines can launch attacks underwater. This not only enriches the attack methods of Chinese submarines, but also
It also gives it the possibility to run away with just one shot.
"Accelerate, just accelerate!" On Sun Long's head was a tactical helmet just developed by the Xuebing R&D Institute. The biggest feature of this helmet specially designed for Air Force pilots is the improvement of the portable radio communication system.
It makes the call distance longer and also enhances the confidentiality of the call. For Sun Long, the biggest convenience of this helmet is that it can free his hands. For example, at this time, if his hands cannot be freed, he will not
Dare to stand in the lookout position on the ship island.
The Ming-class submarine commanded by Sun Long, because the power system has been improved, is considered fast among the world's large submarine families, but it is obviously slower than the Japanese destroyers and light cruisers. This is why he insists on
The reason for "escaping" on the water. Of course, judging from the current situation, he was just "living on" by doing this. After all, the nemesis destroyers that faced the submarine, and there were more than ten, their identities have been changed.
The wolf becomes the prey.
The prey had no consciousness and was still running wildly. Yamaki Suzu, the commander of the Japanese search fleet, stood in the captain's cabin of his flagship Yukikaze, using his binoculars to search for Sun Long's back, with a cruel smile on his lips.
"Do the Shina people think they can still escape?" Beside Yamaki Suzu, the captain of the Yukikaze, Saburo Aratetsu, said.
"Ants can still survive, let alone humans. The reaction of the Chinese people is also reasonable. However, when they find out that they are just the bait we spread, I don't know what the second lieutenant's expression will be."
In the Japanese Combined Fleet, under the deliberate cultivation of Koizumi, the number of war fanatics is increasing steadily. These people still live in the illusion of the Japanese Empire. They always think that the situation between the Chinese and Japanese navies is still that of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, so they have no idea about the relationship with China.
The Pacific Fleet fought against each other and even took the initiative to attack. Not only did they not have the same doubts as Yamaguchi and Ozawa, on the contrary, they always behaved very actively. Under Koizumi's earnest teachings, the failure of the Japanese Combined Fleet in the Green Sea and the Timor Sea was nothing more than a failure.
Yamaguchi Isoroku's command was incompetent, and it was the underestimation of the Japanese navy that gave the Chinese a chance. And as long as they cheer up and treat it with caution, the Chinese navy will be the same as the U.S. Pacific Fleet and can only become
A name on the merit list of the Imperial Japanese Combined Fleet.
If there is a reconnaissance satellite at this time, and you have a bird's-eye view of the North Pacific Ocean near Papua Island, you will see that about 400 kilometers away from the Palau Islands, a Chinese submarine and a Japanese search fleet were chasing each other.
It is speeding towards North Maluku from east to west. At the same time, China's Pacific Fleet, Japan's Combined Fleet and the US Pacific Fleet aircraft carrier group are rushing towards each other. Among them, China's Pacific Fleet is heading towards
The northerly channel seems to be heading towards the Palau Islands; the main force of the Japanese Combined Fleet is following closely behind its search fleet; and about two hundred kilometers away from the main force of the Japanese Combined Fleet, the US Pacific Fleet aircraft carrier group
Following him, he looked like a deer with the head of a rat.
At 3:05 in the afternoon, 200 kilometers northeast of North Maluku, a Fifty Special Attack Aircraft of the Japanese Yamato Spirit Team encountered a water reconnaissance aircraft of the Chinese Pacific Fleet. Immediately, the Yamato Spirit Team's
Commander Hatoyama Funagi immediately organized more than one squadron of the new Fifty Special Attack Aircraft to launch a large-scale search centered on the point where the Chinese maritime reconnaissance aircraft was encountered, and discovered the main fleet of the Chinese Pacific Fleet at about 4:30.
The Yamato soul who first discovered traces of the Chinese fleet was a Japanese second lieutenant named Ichiro Hayamura. When the Japanese soldier rushed through a cloud layer and suddenly found a large number of ships on the sea level in front of him, the Japanese soldier was surprised and immediately rushed to Hatoyama.
Reported that traces of the China Fleet had been found.
Relevant information quickly reached Koizumi, who then forwarded it to Yamaguchi.
"Report, there is a call from headquarters. The Yamato Soul Advance Team has found the China Fleet. The specific position is 133° east longitude and 5° north latitude. The headquarters orders us to immediately launch an attack on the China fleet..." The person who reported Koizumi's message to Yamaguchi was a man named Sakai Shang.
staff officer. I don’t know whether it was because of nervousness or other reasons, but he seemed very excited when reporting the message, and his voice was extremely loud.
"Have you found the China Fleet? 133° East Longitude, 5° North Latitude," Ozawa read along and found the corresponding position on the map. He frowned and turned to Yamaguchi: "No wonder we haven't been able to find the China Fleet. It turns out that
They are hiding here! Yamaguchi-kun——"
Yamaguchi's reaction seemed a bit abnormal, at least from Sai Shang's point of view. Compared to him who was inexplicably excited, Yamaguchi's reaction was too cold, which made him a little confused - after all the hard work,
Isn't it worth being happy to finally find the China fleet in the vast sea?
"I understand, Saoi, you go out first!" Yamaguchi said calmly to Saoi, and after he went out, he looked at Ozawa and said: "Ozawa-kun, it is indeed congratulatory to find the China fleet, but don't you think it is too early? If
When the Americans capture Guam, then is the best time, right?!"
Ozawa was shocked after hearing this, and immediately calmed down and said: "Yamaguchi-kun, you are right, I'm sorry, I got carried away."
Seeing him like this, Yamaguchi showed a soothing smile on his face, and comforted him and said: "It's okay. There is an old saying in China that everything depends on manpower. Our strength is only a little worse than the China fleet. As long as there are no mistakes in our tactics."
, the Chinese want to defeat us, hum! I will make them pay a heavy price!"
