Chapter 603: Surprise Attack on Sakhalin
On the pitch-black sea, 5 black submarines appeared, like 5 black monsters, sailing towards the north. In the submarine of the German captain Coral www.biquge.info, he held up a brandy and said to Jie Zhenbang and Li Dabao: "Two warriors! Good luck with your success! "A certain Major Corel, you actually use the idiom of success. It's not easy. Jie Zhenbang teased. According to your Chinese words, it is called following the local customs, and now I am very interested in Chinese. "Major Coral Koll, after this mission is completed, I heard that you are going back to Germany?" Li Dabao asked.
"To tell you the truth, I returned to Germany to recruit German naval personnel to serve your navy, especially naval technicians, in accordance with the will of the fleet commander. Your country's ambitious plans for the development of the Navy are admirable. "Report to the captain, arrive at the predetermined sea area." "Two, the submarine is going to dive, you continue to talk!" After Coral left, Li Dabao took out the map of Sakhalin and said: "We got the military map of Sakhalin through the United States, and the target is here." ”
According to Plan B of the W Plan, the attack on the Sakhalin military airfield was aimed at completely eradicating the threat of Soviet shore-based fighters to aircraft carrier warships. In addition, the main warships of the Soviet Pacific Fleet were forced to flee to the Tatar Strait, and then used mines to block the southern exit of the Tatar Strait to restrict the activities of the main warships of Russia in the Pacific. If the purpose of this campaign is achieved, it is necessary to blow up the Soviet combat aircraft at the military airfield at the southern tip of Sakhalin. Therefore, Tao Yong, commander of the aircraft carrier fleet, ordered five attack submarines to be dispatched to carry the Sea Wolf team to carry out the task of a surprise attack on the airfield of the Soviet army on Sakhalin Island.
In the submarine's cabin, the two continued to discuss a plan of action. "Brother Jie, this military airport was built during the Japanese occupation. Lo and behold, the maps of the Japanese are so accurate that the plans of the military airfields, including the surrounding terrain and landforms, are clearly explained. Li Dabao pointed. You're right, the Japanese are never ambiguous when it comes to details. "In about 2 hours, we will reach the waters east of Sakhalin, and we will carefully study the combat plan." "According to the plan we have drawn up, go ashore here, and then."
The hazy coastline reveals a ghostly look in the night. The waves rolled on the surface of the sea, and a submarine emerged from the sea, followed by another. On the deck of the submarine commanded by the German captain, the Seawolf special operators put the inflatable rubber dinghy on the surface, and the decks of several other submarines were also busy. Soon, Li Dabao and Jie Zhenbang shook hands with Captain Coral and said goodbye. "You two, this is 15 nautical miles from the coastline, good luck to you." "Major Coral Goodbye!" "I wish you a safe journey!" Li Dabao and Jie Zhenbang boarded the rubber boat, waved their arms, and soon the kayak rowed towards the shore.
The blurred coastline rushes head-on, and a reef group appears ahead. This is their proposed landing location, and if you choose to go ashore on the sandy shoreline, it will be easy to spot. The rubber boat that Li Dabao and Jie Zhenbang were riding leaned against a reef. "Pass my order, and the reconnaissance team will go ashore to find out the situation!" Li Dabao ordered in a low voice. Jie Zhenbang glanced at the luminous watch and said: "Captain, it's 3 o'clock in the morning, it's almost dawn, we can't delay time, we have to move to the shore." Li Dabao waved his hand, and the team members waded waist-deep water to the shore.
About half an hour, the two scouts returned to shore. "Report, we searched a radius of about 200 meters and found nothing suspicious." "Captain, you must find a hiding place and wait until dawn." "It is said that Sakhalin is desolate, and it is true. According to the Japanese map, it is at least 20 kilometers from the airport, and it is terrifyingly quiet. "About 2 kilometers deep into the hinterland, they sent down a forest, and Li Dabao decided to go into the woods to hide. The team members went into the woods, each looking for a location, and soon fell asleep.
The eastern sky was white, and from the north a flock of migratory birds flew in, apparently flying to the warm south to take a temporary roost in the forest. The chirping of birds made Li Dabao and Jie Zhenbang wake up vigilantly, it turned out that the uninvited guest was a bird, and the two simply got up. Li Dabao returned to Jie Zhenbang after arranging the reconnaissance task. "Captain take it!" Jie Zhenbang threw a compressed biscuit over. Li Dabao sat on the ground and opened the map to take a closer look. "Captain, I heard that the chief of the General Staff once introduced you to the customs of Sakhalin, and now we are on this island, let me feel it."
Li Dabao smiled when he saw Jie Zhenbang's hungry appearance: "Before I came, the chief of the general staff solemnly briefed me on the situation on Sakhalin Island. Sakhalin Island is a long and narrow island, more than 900 kilometers long from north to south, 6 to 160 kilometers wide from east to west, with an area of about 70,000 square kilometers. The biggest thing about the island is the number of rivers and lakes, about 6,000 rivers and more than 1,600 lakes. The northern part of the island is flat, while the southern part of the island is mountainous, with the highest peak at about 1,300 meters above sea level. ”
Li Dabao spoke eloquently and continued: "Sakhalin Island has been Chinese territory since ancient times, and since the Jin Dynasty, Sakhalin Island has been under Chinese jurisdiction. Later, it successively returned to the Yuan Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, the Later Jin Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty. However, the corrupt Qing Dynasty, after losing a large amount of territory in the north of the country after the Sino-Russian Treaty of Aihui, was forced to sign the unequal Sino-Russian Treaty of Beijing after the Second Opium War, ceding about 100 square kilometers of territory north of the Heilongjiang River and east of the Ussuri River, including Sakhalin Island, to Russia. ”
In 1905, Russia was defeated in the Russo-Japanese War and was forced to cede the southern part of Sakhalin to Japan. In 1920, taking advantage of the internal turmoil in Soviet Russia, Japan sent troops to occupy the northern part of Sakhalin Island. In 1925, Japan and Russia established diplomatic relations, and Japan returned the northern part to Soviet Russia. After the defeat of Japan a few months earlier, the Soviets sent troops to retake the southern part of Sakhalin. "Japan and Russia, you come and go, Sakhalin is really messy!" "In the future, things will be returned to their original owners, and there will be peace and tranquility here." "Brother Li, your knowledge has grown a lot in the past few years, brother admires it!" "To tell you the truth, I also chased ducks to the shelves, and I was forced to be helpless, even if I was a stupid bird, I had to fly to the sky!"
At dusk, the reconnaissance group is back! The leader of the reconnaissance team reported: "Captain, the reservoir port is located in the middle of the U-shaped harbor, and most of the main warships of the Soviet Pacific Fleet are anchored in the sea. There was a regiment of Soviet troops stationed in the port of Reservoir, the airfield was located on the southeastern peninsula, the airfield was not large, there were about 30 warplanes, and the airfield guard unit was about a battalion. Li Dabao took out the map and opened it: "The airport is in this location, everyone continues to rest, and we will act after dark." ”
After the subordinates dispersed, Li Dabao asked: "Brother Jie, you have rich experience in special operations, should we use a sneak attack method or another way, in short, our goal is to blow up the Soviet airfield." Jie Zhenbang pondered for a while and said decisively: "At present, all the attention of the Soviet army is focused on Vladivostok, and it would not be thought that it would be a little unreasonable for us to launch an attack on the Sakhalin airfield, but this is the case. There is only one battalion of the airfield guard, so I propose to occupy the airfield. "Occupy the airport?" "I have a bold idea, you see if it's good."
It was originally scheduled to set off after dark, but Jie Zhenbang made a bold suggestion, so the Seawolf team set off at around 4 o'clock. As mentioned earlier, the south is mountainous, and the troops follow the mountain range, arriving near the airport at about 6 o'clock. To the south, you can see the sea, and there is a road leading to the airport by the sea, which is very eye-catching. The team members slowly approached the road, approaching the kilometer, and Li Dabao ordered to stop advancing and hide in place.
"Li Gang" "Arrived!" In the dark, Li Gang's figure came to the front. The Special Warfare Wolves were renamed the Sea Wolf Squad after the convergence of the Sea Lion Special Warfare Team, and the original 62 members of the Wolves became a squadron, and the squadron leader was Li Gang.
"Your squadron is responsible for hijacking Soviet trucks, and you can't shoot unless you have to, understand?" "Understood!" After Jie Zhenbang finished explaining, he said to Li Dabao: "Don't worry, they won't make mistakes." "Brother Jie, your subordinates have been on the battlefield for a long time, and their combat effectiveness is world-famous, isn't it a bit hypocritical?" "Brother Li! It's not that I'm pretentious, after all, we're all together, I hope you understand. "Brother Jie, trust is built on the basis of fighting against the enemy, and my results are particularly important!" "Brother Li, I understand your feelings."
