Between Ezo and Guam, the vast Pacific Ocean is dotted with small islands and reefs. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The main force of the Pacific Fleet of the Imperial Chinese Navy and the Guam submarine squadron conducted a confrontation exercise, and the first place of engagement was in a sea area north of the Marshall Islands and south of Wake Island.

The Guam Submarine Squadron, under the leadership of Commander Chen Shen, took the Guam submarine squadron by surprise and crossed the sea to sink the battleship Thor, the flagship of the Pacific Fleet, in one fell swoop. Although the Guam submarine squadron was completely wiped out in the end, it sank more than a dozen main warships of the Pacific Fleet, and the results were brilliant.

However, thinking that the exercises were over, it turned out that a submarine was missing.

On the sea, 37 submarines surfaced and displayed their military flags one after another.

Chen Shen personally observed, and according to the port number of each submarine, he finally found that there was no submarine with the number 81073.

"Send a telegram to the Copperfish immediately and ask what's going on?"

The Copperfish is the submarine with the number 81073.

According to the regulations on the establishment of ship numbers of the Imperial Chinese Navy, the number of submarines starting with the word 8 is expressed in five digits, which looks scary, and foreigners will think that the Chinese Empire has built more than 80,000 submarines in service.

In fact, the Imperial Chinese Navy currently has only more than 500 submarines in service, and the number of the Copperfish is 81073, after removing the number 8, it is 1073, and then divided by 2, it is the number of submarines.

This is because, in practice, the Navy does not number in the order of 12345, but replaces it with odd and even numbers in turn, and draws lots to decide whether it is an odd or even number. For example, the 100th submarine, when it was numbered, the lottery drew an odd number, then its port number was 201. And so on, the 101st submarine, it drew an even number, so its number is 204.

The purpose of such a numbering method is only to confuse the reconnaissance of foreign military intelligence officers, so that they cannot guess how many submarines there are in the Imperial Chinese Navy based on numbers.

At this time, Chen Shen still had a trace of illusion about the 81073 Tongyu submarine in his heart, thinking that the exercise was not over, and the Tongyu submarine may have been secretly diving and was not discovered by the red side.

"Looks like we're not all wiped out yet!"

Chen Shen smiled to hide his nervousness, but cold sweat broke out slightly on his forehead. As a professional soldier, he doesn't feel good, but he can't say anything, he can only hope that it will be a false alarm, and he will be too careful!

"Hmph, it's just a fish that slipped through the net!"

Li Weijun snorted coldly, he held back the fire in his stomach, and was worried that he had no place to vent his anger, so he immediately gave the adjutant a look.

Soon, the sonar systems of the various ships of the Pacific Fleet were running at maximum power, and they were all scrambling to try to find the 81073 Copperfish submarine first.

You must abuse him severely!

This is the unanimous aspiration of the officers and men of the Red Side of the Pacific Fleet, and today's painful lesson is difficult for them to let go of and will not be able to forget for a long time to come.

At the same time, the submarine 81073 Copperfish also replied.

"There was an emergency accident on this submarine, and the floating system and horizontal rudder failed!"

When Chen Shen saw this news, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it didn't seem to be a big accident.

But soon he frowned, the failure of the floating system is equivalent to saying that the submarine cannot surface, and the failure of the horizontal rudder means that it cannot turn, which means that the Copperfish submarine can only sail in one direction.

"Report the location of the Copperfish!"

It took a long time for the Copperfish to reply.

"It's roughly southwest of Wake Island, but it's not certain, because the time of the submarine's rudder failure is uncertain, and it may have been a problem in the first place."

Chen Shen's brows twisted even tighter.

Li Weijun on the side snorted coldly and said: "It turned out that there was an accident, which scared me, and I thought there would be another big sneak attack that was hidden from the sky and the sea!" ”

"Is there another accident? Immediately send a rescue team to bring back the officers and men on the Copperfish submarine safely! ”

Li Weiguo saw that the submarine was malfunctioning, thinking that it was caused by high-intensity training, after all, there have been too many such things recently, so he asked Li Weijun to immediately prepare to rescue the Tongyu.

"Obey the order!" Li Weijun was ordered to be on guard and ready to organize a rescue.

Chen Shen suddenly stopped him and said, "Commander Li, it's okay to send a rescue team, it's better not to lift the alert for the time being!" ”

Li Weijun asked, "What do you want to say?" ”

Chen Shen glanced at Li Weijun, and said to Li Weiguo: "Your Majesty, it has been an eventful time recently, and the minister thinks it's better to be careful!" ”

Li Weiguo's eyes were sharp, and he instantly saw that Chen Shen was suspicious of the Tongyu, so he nodded to Li Weijun.

Li Weijun received the order and only ordered the mobilization of rescue teams, but did not lift the fleet's first-level alert.

"Chen Shen, what are you worried about?"

Li Weiguo asked suddenly.

Chen Shen replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks this matter is weird!" Major Chen Dachun, the commander of the Copperfish, is a very experienced submarine tactical commander, and if the submarine's floating system and steering system fail, he should immediately find out, and at the same time, he will send a telegram to report to Zhiweichen as soon as possible. ”

Li Weiguo nodded, thinking that Chen Shen's analysis was more reasonable.

In addition, Wechen informed all the submarine exercises that at the end of the exercise, the Copperfish did not report an accident in its reply. If it weren't for the officers and men of the other warships who suddenly discovered that only 37 submarines had surfaced, Wechen would not have known that there was another one hidden in the sea. ”

When Chen Shen said the back, Li Weiguo's expression had become heavy.

It is said that the emperor is suspicious and suspicious, which is not false at all.

Li Weiguo's current personality is a bit suspicious. Because every emperor is always guarding against others, worrying that others will seek to usurp the throne and assassinate themselves.

At this moment, Li Weiguo couldn't help but remember that Li Weijun said that he didn't feel good before, and he was afraid that something big would happen.

Thinking of the strange situation of the Copper Fish, Li Weiguo became more and more vigilant.

"Haven't you found the Copperfish yet?"

"It's strange, within a radius of thirty nautical miles, there is no detection of the Copperfish!"

"It stands to reason that when the commander of the Copperfish discovers that the submarine is malfunctioning, he should stop and try his best to rise to the surface, so the Copperfish submarine must be in the nearby exercise area, and according to the speed of the submarine, it should be within 20 nautical miles!"

Several fleet staff officers were discussing with each other, and their voices were neither loud nor small, just enough to fall into Li Weiguo's ears.

Chen Shen sent another telegram to the Tongyu, asking for some information.

"The telegram from the Copperfish said that they had stopped a long time ago, but they didn't know where they were, and asked His Majesty to rescue them as soon as possible, and their air was running out."

The commander of the Copperfish sent a request directly to Li Weiguo, so Li Weiguo had to quickly order: "Immediately increase the search efforts, they must be found as soon as possible!" ”

As a result, the various detachments of the Pacific Fleet were divided into more than a dozen teams and spread their nets in all directions to find the location of the Copperfish.

Even Li Weiguo's royal ship, the Guanghua, joined the search team and actively searched for the Tongyu submarine.

Fifty nautical miles away, there is an uninhabited, shallow atoll, which became famous in later generations as Bikini Atoll.

However, in this era, there is no name.

Inside the lagoon, a periscope quietly rises above the water, and it circles around to observe the surrounding situation.

A seabird flew over and landed on the periscope, below which was a huge black shadow.

If Chen Shen were standing here, he would definitely recognize that this was the missing submarine Copperfish.

At this moment, inside the Copperfish submarine, a sailor observer is using a periscope to observe the surrounding situation.

In the sight glass, he found the glorious royal warship, the Guanghua.

"Report, the Guanghua has been discovered!"

Chief of Staff Kim Sung-woo, who was studying the charts, raised his head and revealed a pair of cloudy eyes.

"There are only two frigates around! It's coming our way! ”

Kim Sung-woo's eyes lit up suddenly, took over the periscope, and observed it for himself.

Sure enough, in sight was Li Weiguo's royal ship Guanghua, with its splendid and luxurious decoration, there would never be a second such extravagant ship in the world.

"That's right, it's this ship, the Dog Emperor's royal ship!"

Jin Chengwu said excitedly, with a hateful gaze in his eyes, if someone stood in his way, he would definitely be killed by this gaze.

As a captain officer of the Imperial Chinese Navy, Jin Chengwu actually called Li Weiguo by his name, which can be described as disrespectful.

Of course, if he had decided to commit treason, and was no longer an officer and citizen of the Imperial Chinese Navy, then he could indeed call Li Weiguo by his name.

At this moment, there are only five people in the Copperfish submarine, including Kim Sung-woo, who has the highest military rank.

There were still some traces of blood and fighting on the floor, apparently there had been a battle here not long ago, and Kim Sung-go and his four accomplices had killed the captain of the Copperfish, Chen Dachun, and ten other sailors, and the bodies were piled up in the rest chamber.

It is really surprising that such a rebellion occurred in the Imperial Chinese Navy.

However, if you think of the recent uproar in the Chinese Empire, the case of Yang Naiwu and Little Cabbage, it is not difficult to find out why Kim Sung-woo launched a rebellion.

It turned out that Jin Chengwu was a banner man, his real name was Aixin Jueluo Zaiyun, a son of the clan, who was originally a master every day, and he had endless fun, because Li Weiguo rebelled and overthrew the Qing Dynasty, so that Jin Chengwu changed from a high-ranking uncle overnight to a turtle grandson who everyone shouted and beaten.

The Han people turned over and became the masters, and the banner people fled one after another, and since then they have been incognito.

Most of the fleeing bannermen took Jin as their surname to commemorate their ancestor Dajin Kingdom, and Jae-yun also changed his name to Jin Chengwu, spent all his savings, and finally got a Han identity and hid in seclusion in remote mountains.

Over time, in order to quickly consolidate his rule, Li Weiguo granted amnesty to the world and no longer pursued the remnants of the previous dynasty, which finally relieved Jin Chengwu.

However, hatred will not change.

As the rule of the Chinese Empire became more and more secure, Kim Sung-woo gradually found that he was increasingly unable to shake the Chinese Empire.

Even Li Hongzhang and the remnants of the previous dynasty, who were reluctant to attack at the beginning, seem to have begun to retreat, believing that the Chinese Empire could not be overthrown, and Li Weiguo's rule was completely stable.

However, Jin Chengwu was not reconciled, at first he could not get help at home, so he aimed at the hostile countries of the Chinese Empire, the British Empire, the United States, Japan and other countries, Britain, the United States and Japan were bent on finding collaborators in the territory of the Chinese Empire, and after learning the identity of Kim Chengwu, they cooperated with each other.

Using his network, Kim Sung-go quickly got in touch with Li Hongzhang and the other remnants, and with the financial help of the British, American, and Japanese authorities, the Assassin League was formed, with Kim Sung-go being one of the leaders.

Jin Chengwu always believed that as long as Li Weiguo was assassinated, then the Chinese Empire would collapse, so for more than 20 years, Jin Chengwu has been using the Assassin Alliance to assassinate Li Weiguo, but in the end they all failed.

But Kim Sung-woo was not discouraged, contacted the old people, and began to infiltrate the military of the Chinese Empire. And Kim Sung-woo himself became a submarine officer, secretly developed anti-Li Weiguo members, and lurked in the Shence Army.

Jin Chengwu originally planned to use money to keep promoting himself until he had enough military power to mobilize, and then kill Li Weiguo.

Unfortunately, before Kim Sung-woo's wish could be realized, Li Hongzhang and other remnants of the former dynasty were defeated, and even the Assassin League was bloodbathed by the Homeland Security Bureau.

This is all because of the recent uproar in the Chinese Empire Yang Naiwu and the little cabbage case.

Li Hongzhang and the old ministers of the Zongren Mansion of the previous dynasty planned to use the unjust case of Yang Naiwu and Xiao Cabbage to incite public opinion and smear Li Weiguo's glorious image in the hearts of the people, so they calculated that Li Weiguo's son King Chen, using King Chen's mother was Yilan and had half of the flag blood, plus Princess Chen was also a flag person, so it was easy to get close to King Chen, and blame King Chen, and then incite public opinion to smear Li Weiguo and the royal family.

As a result, Li Hongzhang and others were careless, and they didn't expect that this matter had long been planned by Li Bin of the Homeland Security Bureau, and even deliberately set up a trap and waited for them to take the bait.

Weng Tonggong presided over the trial of the case of Yang Naiwu and Xiao Cabbage, quickly solved the case, and presented the evidence of Li Hongzhang and others meddling, and public opinion, under the guidance of the imperial court, quickly reversed the direction of the wind and overwhelmingly accused Li Hongzhang and other former ministers.

Subsequently, Li Weiguo casually found an excuse in the court to attack Li Hongzhang and others, and exposed that the Assassin Alliance had continuously assassinated Li Weiguo over the years, and Li Hongzhang and others were behind it.

As a result, Li Weiguo imprisoned Li Hongzhang and others, turned over all their old accounts, and liquidated them one by one.

This is the Great Purge, which has been the case in all dynasties, and Li Weiguo is no exception.

Previously, in order to quickly consolidate the rule of the country, there was no liquidation of the former ministers of the previous dynasty, but now that the rule is stable, it is natural to liquidate them one by one.

Li Hongzhang and others were imprisoned, and the destruction of the Assassin Alliance directly shattered Jin Chengwu's dream of recovering the country.

Jin Chengwu, who was unwilling, decided to take a risk, and when no one had found out his identity, he decided to take his name and go to Britain and the United States to have a future.

He knew that Britain and the United States were very jealous of the submarines of the Chinese Empire, and wanted to obtain the submarine technology of the Chinese Empire but could not.

So, Kim Sung-woo planned to hijack a submarine and go to Britain and the United States. (To be continued.) )
