The Japanese officer who was monitoring the ocean with a telescope in his hand suddenly said: "General, take a look, something seems to be wrong."
The ocean surface was densely covered with ships crossing the river. At least hundreds of ships of various types passed through the Chinese Navy's cordon and headed towards the opposite side.
Walking to the center of the river, on a Japanese military transport ship, two civilians took off their shirts, pulled out their sabers, and pointed at a nearby Chinese warship. The transport ship accelerated and drove towards it.
Lieutenant General Takahashi saw this scene through the telescope and was completely heartbroken.
The Chinese warships signaled to slow down, but the Japanese transport ships rushed over like a long queue.
The machine guns of the Chinese army rang out, aiming at the transport ship and firing, punching several holes in the transport ship's iron sheet. However, they still could not stop the transport ship, which was like an arrow from the string. The transport ship tore the iron sheet from the side of the Chinese warship, and what happened next
explode.
The accident report was immediately passed to the flagship command podium. Looking at the billowing smoke and the slowly sinking patrol ship 1378, Liu Tong became angry.
Here is an example. Several Japanese transport ships looked at the nearest Chinese warships with bad intentions. They launched a suicide attack like mad dogs. The Chinese warships were busy moving to both sides. One of the patrol ships was rubbed against the side by a Japanese transport ship and hung up.
There was a big hole, and the ship's hull turned sideways.
Liu Tong blushed and looked coldly at the two Chinese patrol ships that were sinking and about to sink. The Chinese navy on the ship jumped into the sea with life-saving tools on his back, swam to the nearest ship, and looked at the soldiers
They were rescued in embarrassment, and Liu Tong ordered his troops to carry out indiscriminate retaliatory attacks on all approaching Japanese ships.
The Chinese soldiers, who were all holding their breath, received this order and quickly filled the artillery shells with anger and fired them.
A sky full of shells landed near Japanese sea-crossing ships. Most of Japan's sea-crossing ships were wooden fishing boats, with a load capacity of only 3 tons, but they carried more than 20 civilians. Not to mention the shells hit, they just landed nearby and set off a fire.
Strong waves can destroy such a ship.
The firepower of the Chinese fleet dealt a fatal blow to Japan. After a round of artillery fire, the number of ships still floating on the sea has been reduced by 1/3. The Japanese who fell into the water shouted for help, and some tried to get close to the Chinese ships.
Ask for rescue.
However, the soldiers of the Navy witnessed the sinking of the two patrol ships with their own eyes, and the soldiers who had little sympathy in the first place became more resentful towards these drowned people. Whoever shouted first beat the drowned dogs, and machine guns and rifles began to attack these people.
The man who asked for help shot him, and the bullet passed through the ocean and stirred up layers of waves.
Blood rolled up from the bottom of the water, and the entire river surface was reflected red under the setting sun.
Cannonballs flew out from the fleet and continued to hit the remaining ships on the ocean. More and more people fell into the water, and more wreckage remained on the ocean surface, slowly sinking into the water.
The remaining Japanese ships fled in all directions, some headed towards Sasebo, and some turned around and returned to the direction of Nagasaki. These ships accelerated their speed because they were overloaded. After the sudden turn and acceleration, many people on the deck were thrown out by the ship.
, fell into the sea water.
More and more Japanese people fell into the sea, and cries, shouts, and calls for help echoed on the ocean surface.
The cannonballs were still aimed at the few remaining ships, with the intention of annihilating all the enemies. There were fewer and fewer targets, and some of the cannonballs seemed to fly unconsciously to the center of the wreckage and explode again.
What's more, cannonballs are fired directly into the sea where people's heads gather. Each explosion turns the people floating on the sea into mutilated corpses.
In the chaos, various firearms were not idle at all. More and more shells landed on the water where crowds gathered, and fewer and fewer ships were tracked.
The Chinese Navy's fleet was surrounded on the sea, and all the people who could move swam away in fear, but Chinese bullets and cannonballs followed them closely as if they had eyes, and misfortune befell them on the sea.
In just half an hour, under the artillery fire of the Chinese army, the cries and calls for help on the ocean became weaker and weaker. The wreckage of semi-sunken ships can be seen everywhere on the ocean, and more are broken corpses. With the last ray of The sun and the reddish water gently carried the body into the distance.
Sasebo sailed out some ships and towed the remaining ships that had escaped there back to the port. The Chinese navy fired artillery fire at their butts like a demonstration. The bumpy waves instantly sent these ships to the dock and crashed into them. The high berth and the dock in Sasebo were in chaos, people were being rescued and people were being rescued and people were being covered.
The navy soldiers looked at Sasebo's busy work with disdain. The recruits couldn't say a word when they looked at the corpses and the red water that were constantly moving from the side of the ship. Even the experienced veterans were stunned when they saw all this. They were just starting. When I fired the gun, my mind was completely blank, but when it was all over, I realized that it was like a nightmare that couldn't go away.
Liu Tong and the navy generals were stunned when they looked at the hellish scenery in front of them from the command tower. In shock, Liu Tong turned his head and walked off the command platform.
Lieutenant General Takahashi and the Japanese officers who were watching every scene carefully with telescopes on the shore shivered and silently put down their telescopes. Lieutenant General Takahashi walked to the beach, bent down and looked at the slightly red sea water, covering his eyes with his hands. Screaming in pain, the adjutant stepped forward and said sadly: "General, this is not your fault, the Chinese army is the devil."
Lieutenant General Takahashi yelled loudly: "Which bastard did it? He repeatedly emphasized not to provoke the Chinese army, and also committed stupid suicide behavior. One hundred thousand people, a whole hundred thousand people, how many of them can come back, all of them became These bastards’ grave goods, I looked down and saw that the entire Nagasaki Bay was dyed red. Do you know how many ships we went out? At least 700. How many arrived on the other side and how many came back. They are all finished. They are all finished. "One hundred thousand people, in just a moment..." Lieutenant General Takahashi couldn't bear it anymore. He couldn't go on and just cried bitterly.
The remaining Japanese officers and Japanese soldiers on the beach also had tears in their eyes, letting the tears flow down their faces.
Several crows cried sadly, seeming to express endless pain.
The Chinese Army soldiers who were still trapped in the municipal building saw the heroic deeds of the Navy from the window. Because they were too far away, they only saw bombs exploding one by one. They boosted their morale and shouted that they could not let the Navy win the first victory. , intensify efforts to attack upward.
However, the Japanese mechanical troops are very cunning. This is not an easy nut to crack. A battalion of troops has already been committed to the attack. The entire building is occupied by the Chinese army, but it is very difficult to solve the problems on the eighth and ninth floors. After using the mechanical weapons, they were still blocked by the machinery on the tenth floor. The machine guns kept firing at every possible place where the soldiers appeared. There was no blind spot at all.
