Chapter 400: Flood Dragon's First Battle (Part 2)
"Okay." Liu Yuntao's eyes showed excitement, and he immediately turned his head and said: "Brothers, turn around immediately, let's retreat!"
Submarine No. 001 xxi quickly turned around underwater, continued to dive deeper, and quickly evacuated toward the six o'clock direction.
The attack of the entire Jiaolong task force was completed within five minutes after submarine No. 001 xxi turned around and evacuated.
The terrifying rate of fire of the xxi submarine allowed it to hit three Japanese aircraft carriers, three battleships and four oil tankers in less than twenty minutes.
The above-mentioned ships were all destroyed by powerful torpedoes, ignited huge fires, damaged their hulls, and began to flood quickly.
When the submarines of Task Force Jiaolong turned around and fled, they also sank more than a dozen Japanese submarines that had rushed to rescue their damaged ships.
In this sneak attack, the Jiaolong Task Force inflicted heavy damage on the Sichuan Yun Fleet in less than half an hour.
Among them, Vice Admiral Kawagumo's flagship Shoga and the other two aircraft carriers Soryu and Hiryu were the most severely damaged, with more than half of their hulls sinking.
The sea was filled with continuous explosions and miserable calls for help and exclamations from Japanese naval officers and soldiers.
Twelve Japanese destroyers hurriedly conducted warning searches in the surrounding waters, but all was in vain.
The excellent performance of the xxi submarine and the extremely backward search equipment and means were naturally impossible for the Japanese destroyers to discover it.
In less than an hour, all fifty submarines of Task Force Jiaolong were already nearly twenty nautical miles away.
After confirming that they had reached a safe sea area, Wang Yunhai ordered the troops to begin to surface. After returning to the water, they began to look through the lookout toward the sea area where they had just attacked.
Although it was nearly ten nautical miles away, one could still vaguely see the light of the fire, which was tens of meters high.
In Submarine No. 002
Ives leaned over and took a look. He said with joy: "Captain Wang, I can congratulate you and your fleet in advance. You are real underwater dragons."
"Instructor Ives, you are very grateful, but I think your congratulations are a little early." Wang Yunhai's smile was a little intriguing.
"Oh? What do you mean?" Monk Ives said confusedly.
"After the battle just now, the officers and men of our Jiaolong Task Force are all confident. Moreover, the Japanese fleet has been severely damaged by us, and they are now in chaos. I decided to launch another attack on them and strive to annihilate them all." Wang
The sea of clouds said something astonishing.
"What? You want to launch an attack on them?" Ives was shocked, and then he shook his head and said: "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, the submarine's tactics are about escaping far away with one hit. They rely on flexibility and sneak attack tactics to fight.
Now that we have successfully attacked in a sneak attack, we have inflicted heavy damage on the enemy. Although our whereabouts have not been exposed, the Japanese are already vigilant, and their destroyers and submarines are bound to take strict precautions.
If we attack at this time, we will have a face-to-face confrontation with their destroyers."
Wang Yunhai chuckled and shook his head: "No, no, instructor, what you said is correct. But when we attack again, we will definitely not have a head-on confrontation with the enemy's destroyer.
And you will think so, and the Japanese will definitely think so too. If we try to kill them at this time, they will be at a loss what to do and panic."
"Not a head-on confrontation? You mean, xxi can avoid the alert search of enemy destroyers and submarines?" Ives asked.
"Yes, we are extremely confident about this." Wang Yunhai nodded and said, "However, we have to wait a little longer for this attack. When the enemy is fully committed to rescuing their fallen officers and soldiers, we will launch a sudden attack again.
, catching them off guard."
Ives said no more, nodded and remained silent.
In the sea area where the incident occurred, the Kawagumo Fleet of the Japanese Navy Combined Fleet was in chaos, except for a few destroyers and submarines that were still on guard duty.
Most of the Japanese small ships and submarines are rushing to rescue those compatriots who were forced to jump into the sea.
Lieutenant General Kawaun's flagship was the first to be attacked. It also sank the most severely and quickly. Fortunately, Lieutenant General Kawaun was not killed. At this moment, Lieutenant General Kawaun had chosen to jump into the sea with a group of subordinates and was struggling tenaciously in the water to call for help.
Two Japanese submarines and a guard ship were approaching them, hurriedly rescuing the Japanese officers and soldiers who had fallen into the water.
Lieutenant General Chuanyun and his two subordinates immediately shouted for help at the top of their lungs: "Here. Here, Commander, your Excellency is here, come here quickly!"
At this moment, several violent explosions suddenly came from outside the fleet.
Lieutenant General Kawagumo, who fell into the water, and the Japanese officers and soldiers on the submarine and guard ship turned around in surprise. They saw that several of our own destroyers in the far south had violent explosions, and scarlet fire shot into the sky from the destroyers, which was very dazzling.
.
Both Lieutenant General Kawaun and other Japanese officers and soldiers were all horrified. This mysterious submarine force from an unknown country has come again. They have come again and are still attacking our destroyers.
An inexplicable fear deeply enveloped their bodies and minds, and all the Japanese officers and soldiers were frightened and walked on thin ice.
"Boom, boom, boom..." The violent explosion sounded again, and two more Japanese destroyers and a submarine were hit, causing violent explosions.
Liu Yuntao and Wang Yunhai commanded their men to destroy a Japanese destroyer with almost one torpedo. In the dark, they hid in the sea and launched a sudden attack from underwater.
The Japanese destroyers and submarines were completely unaware and were hit and exploded one after another.
At this time, both sides had undergone earth-shaking changes in both quantity and quality. With an absolutely overwhelming advantage, fifty submarines besieged the Japanese destroyers and submarines like a pack of wolves.
They maneuvered flexibly underwater and kept shuttling. Japanese destroyers and submarines were hit and destroyed one by one.
This assault battle lasted for half an hour before Wang Yunhai ordered all submarines to evacuate.
In half an hour, twenty-three Japanese destroyers and submarines were sunk, only two of the twelve Japanese destroyers remained, more than forty Japanese submarines plus the dozen or so battle losses just now, at this moment
The entire army has been almost wiped out.
There are only more than fifty small patrol ships left in the entire Japanese fleet.
However, some of the submarines of Task Force Jiaolong had exhausted their torpedoes, so in order to avoid losses, Wang Yunhai ordered them to evacuate temporarily.
After withdrawing to safe waters, they gathered together more than 20 submarines with torpedoes left, and then surrounded the remnants of the Japanese fleet, ready to launch a final devastating blow to the Japanese at any time.
The sea area where the Japanese warship group was located was full of fires and explosions, and the cry for help of officers and soldiers who had fallen into the water. The scene was a mess.
After submarines and destroyers were damaged by bombs, they sank much faster than battleships and aircraft carriers with a displacement of tens of thousands of tons.
So the Japanese officers and soldiers on the Japanese ships who were hit jumped into the sea in a panic like dumplings.
Of course, there were also many unlucky Japanese soldiers who were directly blown to pieces by the violent explosion that occurred on the destroyer.
As for the Japanese submarines, all the submarines that were hit exploded, and the hull shells were severely damaged and flooded rapidly. Basically no one could escape.
In one of the only remaining destroyers, a Japanese major was dictating a farewell message to his subordinates in grief: "Dear Headquarters, I serve as Major of Yano No. 3 of the Kawagumo Fleet and Captain of the destroyer Qiun. Our fleet will be here within an hour."
two consecutive
For the first time, it was attacked by a powerful and mysterious submarine force from an unknown country. The enemy is powerful. The Sichuan Yun fleet has lost more than 90% of its main ships, three aircraft carriers, three battleships, ten destroyers and more than 40 ships.
All submarines were lost.
The commander of the fleet, General Kawagumo, was also uncertain about his life or death and was missing. The enemy might reappear at any time. It was with a heavy heart that I bid farewell to the base camp and His Majesty the Emperor.
I am determined to lead all the officers and soldiers on the ship to fight to the death with the enemy, and fight to the end for His Majesty the Emperor and for the Yamato nation. Long live His Majesty the Emperor, and long live the Empire of Japan!"
The message was quickly recorded and sent. Major Yano immediately turned around and walked out of the communication room, and began to command his men to drive the destroyer, along with another destroyer and a submarine, waiting for the final battle to come.
Other small Japanese ships were still busy trying to save their fallen companions as much as possible.
Under the dark night sky, the miserable howls of Japanese soldiers calling for help were heard everywhere.
About ten nautical miles away, in the No. 002 xxi submarine, Ives was overjoyed and said to Wang Yunhai: "Captain Wang, you have really created a miracle in the history of naval warfare. You have almost wiped out the entire Japanese fleet!"
"Instructor Ives, you are also a participant and creator of this miracle, but now we have not completely eliminated the enemy." Wang Yunhai said.
"It's only a matter of time. The main force of their fleet has been wiped out by us, and the rest are all vulnerable little shrimps." Ives said easily.
"Yes, in two hours at most, we can report victory to the commander-in-chief." Wang Yunhai also smiled and nodded.
……………………
Dalian 4th Group Army Headquarters is brightly lit.
In the telecommunications room, the radio station beeped continuously. Suddenly, a second lieutenant communications officer ran out excitedly holding a message.
Rushing straight to the conference room where Zhang Xinghan, Jiang Baili and others were staying, Zhang Xinghan and others immediately stood up as if conditioned and asked: "How is it? Is there any news about Jiaolong?"
The ensign officer stood up to them and gave a military salute and said: "Report to the commander, chief of staff and chief executive, Task Force Jiaolong has received a call. After three hours of several attacks, they successfully annihilated an entire Japanese fleet and wiped out the entire Japanese navy."
There are about 10,000 people, three aircraft carriers and three battleships each, as well as a large number of destroyers, submarines and other ships."
