The morning sun shines on the earth, and the Songjiang Bay is shrouded in a cold mist. Nearly two thousand Republican fleets show a formidable powerful momentum, divided into three clusters, and set up an offensive formation...
The first three Marine Divisions landed on the landing were nearly 100,000 marines from the Shimane Peninsula to Izumocho. From Tsushima Island and military airports in southern North Korea
Thousands of fighter jets that took off were performing escort and combat missions in the sky.
These large number of transport ships and landing ships arranged on the wide sea were making noises, and cranes on the large transport ships were rotating to transport landing ships to the sea. The deck was filled with officers and soldiers on standby, and infantry platoons were platoons.
In units, take turns to board several gangways located on the side and then go down to the landing craft on the sea.
These landing craft shuttled back and forth and continuously transported personnel and supplies to the mudflats. The escort ships and patrol boats kept patrolling the sea. The three land regiments that landed in advance had already spread on the coast and advanced more than ten kilometers in depth.
As more and more troops landed ashore, the scope of the landing field continued to expand.
By 9 a.m., the 13th, 20th and 35th land brigade personnel and most of the amphibious tanks had already arrived. Sabenqiang, chief of staff of the Beiyang Fleet, who was responsible for maritime command, reported the news of the successful landing to the headquarters.
The first battle took place at sea. The small naval base located in the US Po Pass was first hit by fierce air strikes, but the Japanese commander Masao Oki still rushed into the sea with only three remaining old-fashioned torpedo boats. The heavy fog at sea gave
They provided good concealment. Although they had heard from the radio that the Republican Army had landed, at 8:50, when these three Japanese torpedo boats bypassed the Shimae Peninsula, everything they saw before them still made this person.
The Japanese Navy Major was shocked.
A large number of warships, battleships, cruisers, and a large number of destroyers and frigates appeared on the sea. Even Master Oki, who was born in the Etashima Naval School, had never seen so many ships gathered together.
Due to land interference, the radar on the Republican warship patrolling the outside of the landing field did not find these "uninvited guests" with less than 50 tons. Masao Oji led three torpedo boats to break into the Republican ships, even on the sea
The "Haimen-class" frigate with a displacement of less than 2,000 tons is also a behemoth for torpedo boats.
Bang! Bang! The small-caliber anti-aircraft guns on the Republican Navy's frigates and destroyers first turned the guns, and the shells exploded on the hulls of three torpedo boats and the surrounding sea surface, stirring up water columns. The three Japanese torpedo boats did not
Hesitate, cast 12 torpedoes before they are sunk.
The Republican warships on the sea suddenly became chaotic, avoiding the rapid torpedoes and making various maneuvers. The destroyer "Fuzhou" collided with the frigate of "Dangtu" and "Dangtu"
A large piece of the bow of the ship was knocked out. The Taizhou avoided the attack of three torpedoes, but the Changxing frigate on the side was not so lucky. Due to the obstruction of vision, the frigate was a
The torpedo hit the side and rear. The 93 oxygen torpedo with a diameter of 610 mm is powerful, and nearly a quarter of the rear hull of the Changxing was blown off, including propellers and servos.
The Changxing sank on the water for less than fifteen minutes. 188 of the 216 crew members were rescued, but 28 were also killed, including some seriously injured in the torpedo explosion.
The battle lasted less than five minutes, and three Japanese torpedo boats were quickly smashed to pieces. The Republican Navy, which was still in chaos, had to work hard to salvage the Japanese sailors who fell into the water.
The Masao Dazhi was not dead. He was fished up and sent to the cruiser "Ganzhou".
The Japanese Navy does not have the "suicide tradition" like the army. After falling into the water, they are waiting to rescue them obediently. Even if some people have self-defense pistols on their bodies, they are all handed over after they are on the deck. No one is still in the water.
Resist stubbornly.
"You are a very excellent naval officer!" Qu Dingyun, the captain of the Ganzhou, met the Japanese officer who caused great losses to the Republican Army in the captain's office, and praised his opponent.
"Thank you, I'm afraid to die!" Masao Dazhi said in Chinese. His father used to do business in Hankou. He has lived in China for more than ten years and speaks very well in Chinese. The standard displacement of the Republican Navy's air defense cruiser is
About 13,000 tons, which is larger than some Japanese heavy cruisers. However, it is equipped with four triple-mounted 152mm high-level dual-purpose cannons, giving people a feeling of insufficient attack power, but in fact, due to this 60-caliber main cannon
It has extremely high initial velocity, and when using heavy armor-piercing shells, its attack power is not weaker than the 203mm main gun equipped on heavy cruisers.
"You sank one of our frigates!" Colonel Qu Dingyun looked at Masao Dazhi. He was not tall and had a pretty face. If he hadn't been wearing a military uniform, it would be difficult to get him and a person who had been experiencing wind and sun at sea for many years.
Naval officers connected.
"It should be a destroyer?" said Dazhi. "I'm very happy to do this."
"But what's the use?" Qu Dingyun had a smile on his lips, "What is Japan's annual torpedo production? According to my understanding, there are only 500 now. With your hit rate, 12 torpedoes sunk.
Frigates, this is already a pretty good hit rate. All the torpedoes you make every year can sink more than 40 destroyers or frigates at most, but do you know how many destroyers or frigates we can build each year?"
"If I remember well, the number of destroyers you built last year was 112." Daqi said, looking at Qu Dingyun, then sighed, and finally understood what the opponent meant.
"We also built 132 frigates! This is because these warships are enough. If we are willing to produce them with all our strength, each shipyard can build more than 500 destroyers and frigates every year. Do you understand what I mean?"
Dingyun said, "This is a huge difference between national strength, so Japan's defeat was already destined before the war began. I'm very surprised how you would provoke this war first!"
"There are many bastards in the Japanese military, Colonel! But I just want to defend the country." Oji's tone was plain. After the war went on for three years, the Japanese had the feeling of looking up at China and going up to China again.
"Okay, Master, let's talk about some serious matters now. We need to know some situation in the USP Pass," said Qu Dingyun.
"This is impossible, I will never reveal any military secrets." Dazhi's attitude was very firm.
"No, no, this has nothing to do with military secrets. We just want to know the locations of some Izumo's ancient sites and try our best to protect them when attacking. No, we don't want to destroy the entire Japan, Grandpa!" Qu Dingyun said.
, "In China, many students have studied in Japan, and they have such a proposal! The President asked us to protect some monuments as much as possible in the war against Japan. These things are the wealth of all mankind. Am I right?
”
Dazhi was stunned. What does the Chinese mean? Will it really be like what they said? (To be continued.
