"Say Milk! Say's milk ......" Xue Kuiguang, the third officer who went down to the command cabin, cursed loudly, and the loud voice attracted the attention of the whole cabin, and Liu Yongren, who believed that Fengtian Pill would take the Japanese route first and then turn back to Qingdao, had a very unsightly face: It was about to dawn at seven o'clock, and there was no trace of Fengtian Pill in the vast sea. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 According to his own words, once he guesses wrong, there will be no chance, which is equivalent to saying that Wang Jingwei will arrive in Qingdao safely, and the only way to assassinate him after that is to bombard the Governor's Mansion on the sea off Qingdao.

"What are you doing?" Li Kongrong, who was later than Xue Kui's command cabin, looked at him and Liu Yongren strangely, especially the disappointment and embarrassment in Liu Yongren's eyes.

"I'm nothing." Xue Kuiguang's face became serious, but there was still a hint of anger, "Wang Jingwei ran away!" We ......"

"If you run, you run, will you finish killing the traitor?" Although Li Kongrong decided to snipe Wang Jingwei, it did not mean that Wang Jingwei must be killed. First, history is like this, and if it can't be changed, it won't change; Second, on the eve of the establishment of Wang Jingwei's government, Washington immediately approved a $20 million Huaxi loan, and if Wang Jingwei died, perhaps Huaxi's loan would have to be postponed. The navy may be able to borrow 10 million from the government, but 20 million is beyond the capacity of the new and Chinese companies.

"But he is the most ......" Xue Kuiguang wanted to say that Wang Jingwei was the biggest traitor, and if he really wanted to be sniped by the navy at sea, the prestige of the navy would be skyrocketing.

"Didn't the chief say that Mazu wants to protect him, what can we do. If you are unwilling, ......" Chief Engineer Chen Ergong rarely spoke, he pointed to the Mazu shrine, "Bow down, please ask Mazu Niangniang to appear." ”

Xue Kuiguang's anger could not be vented, Chen Ergong pointed out a 'clear road', he immediately lit incense and worshipped, but his voice was very low during the worship, and no one knew what he was chanting silently.

In addition to the iron bar that no other party is allowed to join the officers and men of the navy, another iron bar is that they must believe in God. Whether you believe in Chinese gods or foreign gods, enter Chinese religion or foreign religion, in short, you must have gods in your heart. To not believe is to blasphemy, and to blasphemy is to go against the whole ship, or to endanger the lives of the brothers, and such a person will be kicked off the ship as soon as he is discovered. This iron bar is really not aimed at those materialists, this is actually the unanimous voice of all the old sailors when the navy collects military discipline regulations, believing in God is the tradition of the navy, and there is a Mazu shrine on the warship since the establishment of the Mawei army.

After Xue Kuiguang worshipped, Li Kongrong, as the captain of the boat, had to worship Mazu, he did not recite silently like Xue Kuiguang, but said loudly: "Mazu Niangniang bless the common people and bless the world, but Wang Jingwei should not bless and shelter." The Japanese invaded my homeland, slaughtered my father, and insulted my sisters, but this person defected to the enemy and betrayed the country, set up a puppet government, and was not ashamed, but proud, and deserved a thousand cuts. It is true that the killing of this person was a mistake, but the death and injury of a shipload is far less than the death and injury of a country......"

For some reason, Li Kongrong spoke to the shrine for a few minutes, almost telling the reason why he decided to stab Wang. Mazu didn't hear it, he didn't know, but the crew next to him listened attentively, especially the average death toll of 10,000 people per day during the war was terrifying, and there were only a few hundred passengers on the Fengtian pill, and even if the war of resistance against Wang Jingwei ended a day earlier, it was still earned.

The first mate, Lin Xiangguang, had already gone to the bridge to take up the sentry, and Li Kongrong had finished worshipping Liu Yongren, and then Chen Ergong. The bilge worships Mazu, but a voice comes from the bridge: "Report, it's dawn." ”

The sunrise time is 7:14, and the morning light in winter is generally only more than ten minutes, which is equivalent to saying that the sky will be bright after 7 o'clock. Seeing this, Li Kongrong immediately asked urgently: "Have you found the ship?" ”

"No, no." The voice above stuttered a little, "But, can ......"

"But what?" It was the cadets of the sea academy who were in charge, and the report at a critical time made Li Kongrong a little unhappy.

"Sir, come up for a moment." It was Lin Xiangguang's voice, and Li Kongrong was sent to the bridge in three steps and two steps. As soon as he appeared, he noticed that something was wrong: there was fog on the sea.

"No, it's foggy in winter?" Although Li Kongrong was born in a marine engineer, he knew when there was fog on the Yellow Sea. Although fog is related to climate, it does not mean that there is fog when it is cold, and the fog at sea is the condensation of water vapor, and there can be no fog without water vapor. The sea fog in the Yellow Sea generally appears in spring and summer, when the water vapor is sufficient, and there is basically no fog in winter, but the U-38 is now sailing in the fog.

"That's it as soon as the morning dawns." Lin Xiangguang was also surprised by the fog in the Yellow Sea in winter. "Looks like we can't find it." He said.

"I can't find it, let's dive." Li Kongrong said disappointedly. At this time, the fog on the sea was steaming, and the visibility was only one kilometer, so there was no way to find a ship.

"Get in." Lin Xiangguang was also quite disappointed, it was very unsafe to sail in the sea fog, although the submarine was not in the main channel at this time.

"Sir, listen!" The cadets on the bridge were about to enter the cabin when one of them suddenly heard something. At this time, Lin Lianfan's voice suddenly came from the bilge hatch, "Report to the chief, I found the sound of the propeller." ”

"You're inside!" Li Kongrong and Lin Xiangguang glanced at each other in unison, their eyes full of shock.

"Over there, sir." The non-commissioned officer pointed in one direction in the fog, and the sound of the steamer's whistle loomed.

"In the back, it's the whistle." Lin Xiangguang also heard it, and he said excitedly: "It's such a fog, you can't see it clearly from a kilometer away, the Japanese have several ships, and they have to sound the horn to warn in case of collision." ”

"Dive now, all ships in combat positions!" Li Kongrong also jumped and slid to the bilge. The entire submarine swept away the decadence of last night, and everyone's nerves immediately tensed.

*

At six o'clock in the morning, Chen Qun, who had pressed his flashlight all night by the rear porthole, finally couldn't help but sleep for a while. His plan was to use a flashlight to lure Li Hansheng's submarine over, but he obviously miscalculated, and until 6 o'clock in the morning, there was no trace of Li Kongrong's submarine. At half past seven breakfast in the first class cabin of the cruise ship, Chen Qun, who was bloodshot with bloodshot eyes, went out to avoid everyone at seven o'clock, but Liang Hongzhi also went out with bloodshot eyes. Liang Hongzhi saw that he was about to ask, so he pulled him in.

"Brother Renhe's method is useless." Liang Hongzhi couldn't hide his disappointment, last night he hoped more and more that the ship would be sunk by Li Hansheng and drown the villains Wang Jingwei and Zhou Fohai.

"What's the way if you don't?" The plan failed, and Chen Qun no longer had the self-satisfaction of yesterday. "I can only say that they should not die."

"So what do we do?" Liang Hongzhi asked, after dinner last night, Zhou Fohai's follower Luo Junqiang actually dared to make fun of him, and said that he would go to his house next time to meet the beautiful concubine who met him, ridiculing and contempt.

"What else can I do? I can only look at Dai Yunong. "Chen Qun knows that Wang Jingwei has always been the number one target of the military commander's assassination, but those people in the military commander are really not angry, and they have killed several times without success." I only wish ......"

As soon as Chen Qun said that he wished, there was a 'boom', and the hull of the ship suddenly shook, and the floor was lifted up by several feet, and all the things in the cabin were thrown up, but soon, the floor fell again, and Chen Qun and Liang Hongzhi fell on the floor together.

"What's going on?" Liang Hongzhi was shocked, he wanted to talk about earthquakes, but how could there be earthquakes at sea.

"Ahh As soon as Liang Hongzhi's words came out, the floor was turbulent again, this time it was not as violent as the last time, but Chen Qun, who was lying on the porthole, saw the fire. "Torpedo! It's a torpedo!! Submarine! Lee Han-sung's submarine! Hurry, hurry, hop ship, hop ship. ”

After Chen Qun finished speaking, he pounced on the two lifebuoys prepared last night, but he didn't expect Liang Hongzhi to pounce on him, so he pushed him away, "Yours over there, go get it." ”

"Brother Crane, Brother Crane, help, help, help." Liang Hongzhi was already stupid, he didn't pounce, he couldn't stand and fall down with weak legs.

"Hey!" After the thunder, the ship was rapidly tilting to the right, and Liang Hongzhi's appearance would definitely not be able to return to his cabin. Chen Qun wanted to kick him away, but he thought that if Wang Jingwei died, he would be the chairman of the government, and his future would still be unsafe without him, so he had to give you a lifebuoy. Liang Hongzhi had just put on a lifebuoy, and the third blow came, but this time it was not against Fengtian Maru, but on the Nake who came to the rescue, and a torpedo hit her port side directly, and the fire splashed everywhere, and Chen Qun, who had opened the porthole, even heard the screams of the Japanese.

"Quick, jump." The cruise ship is leaning more and more to the right, and it used to be the place where the main deck was jumped, but now it is the turbulent sea that jumps down.

Liang Hongzhi only glanced down and shook his head desperately, "It's too high, it's too high, I don't dare, I don't ......, ah——! ”

Before he finished speaking, he was pushed down by Chen Qun, and with a flutter, a huge splash appeared on the sea. Liang Hongzhi went down, and Chen Qun also jumped off the porthole, and when he entered the water, he didn't have time to close his mouth and nose, and was immediately choked by the seawater. When he surfaced again, he only saw a black-gray warship half-floating on the sea a hundred meters ahead, and on its left, the Mukden Maru was still moving slowly, but the speed of the ship was getting slower and slower, and the hull was getting more and more oblique. At this time, the deck was crowded with crying and shouting, and a dozen Japanese sailors were putting the lifeboats in place, but the passengers could not wait, and many of them had to dive; On its right side, the tall and mighty Japanese warship that was originally escorting the ship could not see half of the ship's shadow.

Lisuo touched his face, and when Chen Qun was about to say that it was a submarine, a loud bang once again erupted from the starboard side of the Fengtian Pill, and the half-lowered lifeboat, the passengers who fell into the water, and the steel on the cruise ship all flew up in the explosion. The Fengtian Pill, which had long been out of support, could no longer support it, and after the loud bang, her hull was shattered into two, the front one sank the fastest, almost sinking to the bottom of the sea with the explosion, and the back one first rose high, and then the tail fell down into the deep sea without stopping.

"......" was silent for less than two minutes from witnessing the explosion to Fengtian Maru, and for these two minutes, Chen Qun and Liang Hongzhi remained speechless with their mouths open. The two had been looking forward to the shipwreck for a long time, but when the Bontenmaru sank in front of them, the two were still frightened.

"Sir, it's sinking." Lin Xiangguang stood on the bridge of the ship, looking at the empty sea as if in a dream, this was the first time that the U-38 floated to sink a target during the day, and the target was still a cruise ship.

"We are all sinners." Li Kongrong silently thought expressionlessly, and then his eyes were like knives. "It's not over yet, lean in. Do you know Wang Jingwei and what he looks like? ”

"I—I know. We're going to go down deck? Lin Xiangguang swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he understood what Li Kongrong meant, that is, to take advantage of the fog to see if Wang Jingwei had missed the net.

"You don't have to go to the deck, just stand here and watch." Li Kongrong didn't want to take risks, Fengtian Pill sank so fast, it was difficult for Wang Jingwei to escape, although there were some people floating on the sea. "Left Rudder Fifteen." He said to the microphone.

"Help! Help me!! "The closer you get to the place where the Mukden Pill sank in the mist, the louder the voices shouted for help, both male and female, Shanghainese and Northeast dialects.

"Sir, are we going to save people?" Lin Xiangguang didn't speak, and the students who were standing guard on the bridge couldn't bear to ask each other when they saw the passengers floating on the sea. These people speak Chinese, while they float and struggle on the surface of the sea.

"I'm sure it's not Wang Jingwei who will save it again." Li Kongrong's voice was low, and he immediately corrected it after he finished speaking: "Only save women and children." ”

"Yes, sir." The young man replied loudly, three of them were about to climb off the deck, Lin Xiangguang pulled them back, but Li Kongrong still nodded, and as soon as Lin Xiangguang let go, they went down neatly.

"What if the enemy ship comes?" Lin Xiangguang looked at the three sea academy cadets who went down to the deck, and was very uneasy.

"As long as the fog does not clear, the Japanese will not dare to come. It's a big deal that we sink the Japanese ship and then float up, what can they do to me? "Fog is the best protection for U-38, in the sea fog, the Japanese ships can't see the sea surface clearly, let alone find the submarine periscope, if the five Japanese ships dare to come, they will definitely be sunk by the U-38 one by one. The quality of the Japanese Navy cannot be doubted, and besides, the flagship Nako has been hit by a torpedo just now, and they will not dare to come over as long as their brains are not in the water.

"Go down! Get down!! "The submarine was moving at low speed through the wreck area, and a Japanese sailor climbed onto the deck by himself, and the cadet kicked the man down. Li Kongrong didn't say anything about this, he was looking for Wang Jingwei with a telescope, but he couldn't find dear Chairman Wang on the sea at all. "Get the red one up."

The red one was a woman wearing a red cheongsam, the cheongsam was rippling in the waves, but there was no sound, and the student just wanted to jump into the sea but found that the woman had drowned.

"Over there." Seeing the student's gesture, Li Kongrong had no choice but to point in another direction, and there were still people on the other side of the fog shouting for help, but the voice was getting weaker and weaker. "Let them come up." Li Kongrong also ordered the passengers who had been rescued to the deck to come up immediately, and these people were drenched one by one, either so soft that they wailed on the deck, or they thanked the students for their gratitude.

"Sir, the fog is about to lift." The submarine had not circled around the sunken sea area for less than a moment, and the sea fog showed signs of dissipating, and Lin Xiangguang seemed to hear the sound of the Japanese ship's engine, and had to remind Li Kongrong that the time was coming.

"I'll be right back!" Li Kongrong immediately gave an order to the cadets on the deck, but one of them was about to jump into the water again to save a floating child.

"Quick!" Li Kongrong nodded to him after hesitation, and ordered the submarine to turn immediately.

"It's going to be too late." Lin Xiangguang saw the vague shadow of the Japanese ship a few miles away. "I'll be right back!"

"Come back!" Li Kongrong also shouted that it was really too late, but the other two students quickly climbed onto the bridge with the drowning man.

"Launch a torpedo?" The Japanese ship was coming straight, and Lin Xiangguang was a little flustered.

"No!" Li Kongrong was also weighing it just now, but he didn't want to switch to launching torpedoes. He first ordered the engine to 'double full speed', and then said, "Enter the cabin immediately." ”

"Yes, sir." Although the other students were reluctant, they still obeyed the order to get out of the cabin, and only Li Kongrong and Lin Xiangguang were left on the bridge.

"Come up, quick!" The submarine at full speed quickly overtook the swimming cadet, and he grabbed the drainage hole on the side of the hull and climbed onto the deck in embarrassment. Li Kongrong didn't look at him, he kept an eye on the approaching Japanese ship while estimating the actual distance between the submarine and the rescue target, and during the order to 'double retreat', the submarine slid on the surface of the sea while slowing down.

"Hurry!!" In a hurry, the bow of the boat was pressed against the rescue target, and the cadet on the deck leaned down knowingly, grasping the drainage hole on the side of the boat with one hand, and scooping up the people in the sea with the other hand. Although the action of saving people was chic, it was a pity that no one applauded - the Japanese ship three kilometers away just opened fire, and the water splashed on Li Kongrong's face from the shells.

The "Sir......" trainee climbed onto the bridge from the left side, and the rescued person was lifted over the shell by him and handed it to Lin Xiangguang. Li Kongrong was about to let them enter the cabin immediately and then dive urgently, when a 127mm shell hit the right enclosure, and with a 'boom', he was completely unconscious.
