Ten times the price!

Those foreign media laughed on the spot.

In their opinion, the diplomatic press conference of the East China Autonomous Political Axe was too funny.

…… The Ben side quickly responded, claiming that "if the East China Autonomous Government Axe does not pay the compensation on time, then it will continue to attack the merchant ships of the East China Autonomous Government Axe." ”

Reparations?

As soon as this news was exposed, there was an uproar.

Although it is known that there was a naval conflict with Yueben when the East China Autonomous Government was in Fujian last year, few people know about this reparation.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs immediately countered, claiming: "We, the East China Autonomous Political Axe, have never admitted the indemnity demand, and we will not pay compensation to any country, and if the East China Autonomous Political Axe does not compensate our East China Autonomous Political Axe tenfold for the loss, our East China Autonomous Political Axe will make the East China Autonomous Political Axe pay ten times the price, or even higher." ”

…… The next day, newspapers in Europe and the United States carried the news of China's East China Autonomous Political Axe and the Navy's clamour.

A newspaper commented: "Obviously, the East China Autonomous Government relies on submarines, but we are not optimistic that their submarines will make Yueben pay ten times the price." ”

Some newspapers simply commented: "The Chinese are so funny, are they carried away by the previous victory?" ”

…… They never expected that after sinking the merchant ships of the East China Autonomous Axe, not only did they not succumb, but instead turned the situation into an open confrontation.

The navy did not dare to approach the Chinese coastline at this time, because there were submarines there, so they were very careful, but they knew that the merchant ships of the East China Autonomous Axe would sometimes sail far away from the coastline.

…… On the night of the 26th, Xie Baozhang issued one order after another in the naval operations command room.

"Ordered submarines No. 01 to 10 to go with the supply vessels to the Strait of Malacca, at ...... latitude and longitude...... Await orders. ”

"Ordered the submarines No. 11 to 20 to go to the waters of Tokyo Bay, at ...... latitude and ...... longitude Standby"

"Order submarines No. 21 to 30 to block the Taiwan Strait and track the ships flying the flag after they are discovered."

"Order submarines No. 31 to No. 40 to go to the waters near Nagasaki at ...... latitude"

"The rest of the submarines protect the port."

As Xie Baozhang's order was issued, one submarine after another began to sail out of their respective ports.

Among them, the 01~10 submarine began to sail with a supply ship to the Strait of Malacca, which is the economic lifeline of the city, and most of the merchant ships of the city pass through here.

Submarines No. 21~30 began to blockade the Taiwan Strait and track down the discovered ships.

…… Twelve hours passed quickly, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was still engaged in a war of words with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the East China Autonomous Government, and Xia Jun called the Ministry of Foreign Affairs so that they could not speak.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the East China Autonomous Government immediately stopped its diplomatic statements, and Xia Jun made a phone call to the naval headquarters and sent an order to Xie Baozhang: "Sink all ships flying the flag at sea." ”

"Yes!" Xie Baozhang responded excitedly, then hung up the phone and ordered the correspondent of the headquarters: "Order, after the submarines arrive at the designated place, all ships flying the flag will be sunk." ”

…… In the Taiwan Strait, a merchant ship was sailing on a sunny sea, and in the distance, a small black dot was following the merchant ship.

No black smoke!

At the same time it looks small.

The sailors on the merchant ship didn't notice that something was following them, and the little black dot quickly passed by.

The merchant ships were slow, with a measly ten knots due to the full load of cargo.

That black spot, but moving at a speed of seventeen knots, it was a submarine! The VIIB submarine of the East China Navy is painted with the word 23 on it!

"Get in the attack position."

Shi Yunyao, the captain of submarine No. 23, saw that the submarine had sailed to the front of the merchant ship, so he ordered the adjutant.

"Enter the ...... of the attack position"

"Dive down to 15 meters."

The submarine made a ninety-degree turn and then slowly sank.

In the distance, the merchant ship slowly drove away, unaware that it was heading for death.

"The target speed is 10 knots and the azimuth is 35 degrees to the left."

"The torpedo is up to 45 miles per hour."

"Distance calibration."

"500 meters."

"Depth Calibration."

"15 meters."

"Torpedoes No. 1 and No. 2 are ready to be fired in a fan-shaped ......"

The submarine was busy, and the busy sailors skillfully followed the orders to complete the steps.

"Torpedo No. 1 is ready."

"Torpedo No. 2 is ready."

"Launch."

"Launch ......"

Snore...... Snore...... Two 533mm torpedoes whizzed away from the submarine, and the merchant ship 500 meters away was hit by two torpedoes only three seconds later, and a violent explosion broke out on the spot, and the entire merchant ship was blown into two small mushroom clouds, and then quickly sank to the bottom of the sea.

"Hit the target."

Shi Yunyao shouted excitedly after seeing two small mushroom clouds rising from the periscope, and the sailors in the cabin cheered enthusiastically.

"Captain, the command has sent an order for us to rush to the northwest twenty kilometers, and there will be five merchant ships passing there." The Signal Soldier then reported.

"Okay, turn to ...... right away"

Submarine No. 23 immediately rushed to the designated place in accordance with the orders of the command.

But when they arrived at the designated place, they found that there were already three submarines on standby here. Five black clouds of smoke rose from the sea in the distance, and five steam cargo ships were coming.

Soon, the five cargo ships flying the national flag entered the ambush circle of the four submarines, and for a time the torpedoes were fired one after another, and the sound of explosions was heard endlessly on the sea.

Four of the five merchant ships were sunk on the spot, and the other was hit, but it did not sink immediately, and sank to the bottom of the sea about five minutes later.

…… 27 It is dusk, and it is called Nagasaki.

Ten submarines, led by the Reaper, quietly infiltrated the port of Nagasaki's Morihon.

It was getting dark.

Under the cover of night, the ten submarines that had infiltrated the port were observing the prey in the harbor with periscopes in the faint starlight.

I was defenseless!

Obviously, the Navy did not think that the East China Navy would be able to fly submarines to such a long distance.

There are about twenty warships moored in the military port, most of which are destroyers. There were four larger warships, and because of the dark sky, it was not known which of the four warships it was.

Zhou Xiulong used a walkie-talkie in the submarine to assign attack tasks to the other nine submarines.

"Number 31, responsible for attacking the largest warship on the left."

"Understood."

"Number 32, responsible for attacking the warship on the right."

"Understood."

Soon Zhou Xiulong assigned all the attack tasks, and the ten submarines were each aimed at the target to be attacked.

"The 31st is ready ......"

"Ready ...... on the 32nd"

"The 33rd is ready ......"

"The 34th is ready ......"

As the submarines were prepared, Zhou Xiulong ordered: "Prepare to launch torpedoes, and withdraw from the port after launching." ”

"Launch!"

With Zhou Xiulong's order, the submarines fired the torpedoes that had been prepared.

Forty torpedoes were fired in a fan, and after firing the torpedoes, the submarines directly began to turn and began to retreat outside the harbor.

A serial explosion of forty torpedoes!

The quiet night of the harbor was suddenly pierced by the sound of the violent explosion, and everyone could feel the earth tremble as they listened to the empty explosion in their ears.

A soldier stared blankly at the warships in the military port, and suddenly, there was a loud bang one after another, and then he saw that the warships in the military port were bombed into flames, and the hulls were flying all over the sky.

Clouds of dazzling smoke enveloped the warships, which slowly became smaller after seven or eight seconds, and then the warships began to sink.

Suddenly, a blown up hull fell from the sky and smashed directly on the head of the soldier, and the world suddenly went dark...... The Nagasaki military port suddenly became like a hornet's nest, and as soon as the explosion sounded for more than ten seconds, the entire port soldiers screamed in horror, and then ran to the fort and fired wildly into the water.

However, by the time the soldiers ran to the battery to shoot, ten submarines had quietly slipped out of the harbor under the cover of night.

…… Admiral Saito was woken up in his sleep.

Minoru Saito was born on December 2, 1858 in Mutsu Province (Iwate Prefecture), the eldest son of Kohei Saito, a retainer of the Mizusawa Date family of the Sendai Domain. In 1873, he entered the Naval Academy (later the Etajima Naval Academy) and graduated from the 6th Naval Academy on April 20, 1879. In 1884, he was appointed lieutenant attaché to the United States, in 1894 he was appointed attaché to the Shozo, in 1897 he was appointed captain of the protection cruiser Akitsuzu Osa, in 1898 he was captain of the cruiser Itsukushima, in 1898 he was appointed vice-minister of Yamamoto Gonbei in the first Okuma Shigenobu cabinet, and was promoted to rear admiral, vice admiral, and head of the naval ship administration headquarters, and in 1906 he was appointed sea minister of the first Saionji cabinet, serving for eight years, and was promoted to baron (1908) and admiral (1912).

Not long ago, Katsura Taro formed a cabinet, and Katsura Taro represented the interests of the army, so Minoru Saito stayed in office on the condition of 8 million yuan in naval funds.

The person who woke him up asked him to answer the phone, but Minoru Saito quickly answered the phone, and after a while, he suddenly shouted angrily: "What about it? The first Sentai that broke down at the Nagasaki military port was attacked by the Shina people? Yaga, how could he be attacked by the people of China. ”

"What? Submarines of the Chinese people? How are our losses...... Yujin, Chaoyu, Shikishima, and Chunyu were all sunk? Yaga, you are dead, you are dead! When Minoru Saito heard this, he suddenly felt that the world was spinning, the first team! The most elite Navy No. 1 Sentai Troop! He was attacked like this.

And the losses are so heavy that the first Sentai is now almost completely wiped out, except for one Mikasa and the Fuji~!

However, before Minoru Saito could stop, there was another phone call.

"What? Our merchant ships were attacked by submarines in the Gulf of Tonkin? ”

…… In the waters of Tokyo Bay, 10 submarines successively attacked more than 10 merchant ships in the waters of Tokyo Bay, and at the same time blew up three fishing boats more than 10 meters high.

The submarine having fired the torpedo had to return to its homeland,...... 28 said!

Strait of Malacca.

A merchant ship had just sailed out of a not very wide channel when suddenly a torpedo was fired head-on, and only a boom was heard, and the bow of the merchant ship was blown up and disintegrated on the spot, and the hull of the ship was planted directly into the sea.
