Finally finished writing the Hong Kong action, this time it was too slow, so everyone waited for a long time, but in the future, it will be written in stages, and after saving enough to send it together, it is more Buddha-nature, haha, everyone has a psychological preparation.
In addition, I didn't have time to read many comments because I stopped for a few days, and many book friends said that during World War II, Germany used submarines to transport various technical materials to Japan, and there was a problem with the setting of this mission, so let me explain.
At the beginning of World War II, exchanges between Japan and Germany were largely done through the Soviet Union, that is, the Japanese side passed through Manchukuo to Moscow via the Trans-Siberian Railway, and then through Moscow to the German-occupied zone in Europe, which of course was later cut off by the Soviet side.
The Japanese also tried to use long-range aircraft to carry diplomatic couriers, but soon after they flew out, they disappeared off the coast of Sumatra, and efforts to open up an air route failed.
In this way, the transportation route between Japan and Germany was shifted to ocean liners, which led to the setting of this mission.
As for the use of submarines, it was a matter of late World War II, and with the loss of the surface life of the German and Japanese navies, this task later had to be accomplished by relying on submarines, which was called "Yanagi" work by Japanese intelligence.
Until April 11, 1942, the I-30 submarine commanded by Nobuo Nakato Sato of the Japanese Navy departed from the Japanese naval base Kure Port, carrying 3,300 pounds of mica, 1,542 pounds of insect paint, as well as drawings of the Type 91 aviation torpedo and an E14YI seaplane and other materials, passing through Singapore and Madagascar, bypassing the Cape of Good Hope, and successfully arrived at the port of Lorient, France on August 5, becoming the first Japanese submarine to reach Europe in the "Liu" transport.
For this reason, they were warmly welcomed by the German Navy's top brass, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Marshal Raeder, the Commander of the Submarine Forces, Admiral Dönitz, and the Japanese Naval Attache in Germany, Tadao Yokoi, all came to Lorient to greet the arrival of the I-30.
These are some of the information I found, and the time in the book is September 1940, so I think the task setting can still be established, of course, if you can find other different information, we can continue to discuss it so that we can modify it later.
Don't talk nonsense, here again I hope that everyone will take care of themselves, survive the epidemic period smoothly, believe in the country, victory will come soon, come on!!
