Chapter 203: Attack on the Port of Tokyo

Seeing that Karl finally agreed to attack the port of Tokyo. Li Tie finally showed a rare smile, Li Tie called the best students in the No. 1 submarine in the East China Sea to his side, Li Tie thought that it was rare to encounter such an opportunity for actual combat drills.

The Harunyu Pill that was attacked last time was just a merchant ship that had no ability to fight back, and tonight was different, more than a dozen warships in the harbor were really big guys who could fight back, not to mention that there were also troops in the harbor, machine guns, and shore defense artillery.

However, the coastal defense artillery was used to deal with the enemy coming from the distant sea, and it was simply not able to deal with submarines that had already dived to a close place, not to mention that submarine warfare had only been brought to the scene at the end of World War I, and it had not yet attracted the attention of various countries.

Even Germany began to use submarines on a large scale in the middle of World War II, and it was only 1931 that no country's seaports had been attacked by submarines.

This is a rare opportunity for the trainees to fight, and it is not a rare opportunity for the German naval officers, after all, the mastermind is Li Tie, and they are just mercenaries.

In this way, they got the opportunity to train the soldiers, and they could get a high bonus for nothing, especially the blackmail of Li Tie, the richest man in the world, so these German officials were at ease when they knocked Li Tie's bamboo pole straight out.

Looking at the surprised and joyful cheers of Karl and the German navy, Li Tie felt that he had let Karl be the favor, and couldn't help but slander in his heart: "Who said that the Germanic people are honest and reliable humble gentlemen? Who says Germans are rigid in their work? A blood-indebted capitalist empire simply could not have had such a charitable face. The next time I meet someone who says something like that, I'm going to tear his mouth apart. ”

Li Tie and Karl informed the other submarines of the decision to attack the port of Tokyo, the reason was to let the trainees feel the atmosphere of war and familiarize them with wolf pack tactics.

Li Tie discussed with several submarine captains in front of several trainees how to arrange the attack mission, and after a short discussion, a bold attack plan was finally confirmed.

The time for the assault on the port of Tokyo was set for twenty minutes later, and the general assault began twenty minutes later. After the battle plan was formulated, the two submarines, Donghai No. 2 and Tokai No. 3, each lurked on both sides of the harbor in advance according to the plan, where they could see most of the warships in the harbor.

Another submarine, the Donghai No. 4, slowly circled along the harbor. It's just that the submarine is cruising around the edge of the harbor and is covered with mines.

The No. 1 submarine in the East China Sea, where Li Tie was located, was close to the harbor and floated up, and slowly the hatch of the submarine opened, and six special team members quickly got out of the submarine and directly assembled two incendiary bomb launchers on the submarine.

As soon as the time for the general attack came, three launchers fired three incendiary bombs at the oil field on the shore of the harbor, with three loud bangs, and the fuel pile where the fuel and supplies were stored was directly hit by an incendiary bomb. The fuel pile immediately burst into flames, and in just a moment, the entire shore was already in flames.

The other two incendiary bombs missed, but flew towards a larger depot next to them.

Then, an even louder explosion was heard, and it turned out that the fuel pile was on fire, causing the explosion of the ammunition pile not far away, and hundreds of huge shells were fired in all directions.

Many shells hit several buildings at the pier directly, shattering several buildings. Hundreds of shells were fired outside the harbor, and it is not known where they will be blown up.

And some of the rest of the shells detonated on the spot, some flew around, in the sky, next to the warship, in the harbor, in short, this random explosion is unguardable, and some shells can even make a beautiful arc out.

The shells on the shore are all large-caliber heavy shells used by naval guns, and each one is extremely powerful, and any nearby building, no matter how big or small, as long as one is blown up, it will be the fate of collapse.

Ten buildings were blown up by shells flying everywhere, and hundreds of sleeping dock workers were directly killed, not to mention, the fierce fire spread directly to the perimeter of the pier, and many surrounding buildings also caught fire.

At one moment, countless cries for help sounded in the docks, and the dark night sky was lit red by the fires in the harbor. Through the periscope, Li Tie could see the figures running everywhere in the harbor.

Just as the docks were in chaos and the shouts for help from staff and naval officers and sailors were everywhere, three more incendiary bombs were fired from the Donghai No. 1 and smashed at the three warships that were refueling.

With a few bangs, the three warships were also smashed into the ground, and the ship was also in a sea of fire.

Then, the six rangers fired three more incendiary bombs towards the darkness of the harbor, and then directly pushed the three assembled launchers into the sea, and the six people got into the submarine as fast as they could, and the submarine dived as fast as possible.

And just as there was chaos in the harbor, several explosions rang out, and the warships parked on both sides of the harbor were the first to be torpedoed.

Less than two minutes later, four more torpedoes were fired, and two more warships were attacked in the harbor.

At this time, the security team in the harbor reacted and began to turn on the searchlights and search back and forth towards the sea. And at this time, it can be seen that the Japanese are still well-trained.

Despite the fire and the danger of being hit by the shells that flew around them, the soldiers in the harbor set up their machine guns, ran into the gun emplacements, and began to attack.

It's just that because the sea is dark, even if they keep firing flares at the sea, the soldiers guarding can't see any warships at all.

There was no way, and the shore defense guns and machine guns along the harbor also began to attack aimlessly into the sea. At this time, Li Tie had already ordered all the submarines to return.

Looking at the fire in the harbor, Li Tie was in a very good mood. This can be regarded as an advance compensation for the losses caused by Japan's invasion of China in the future.

Li Tie saw that the matter had come to an end, so he asked people to open a bottle of red wine, and he wanted to treat himself.

The warships in the harbor were afraid of being injured by the warships that had been killed, and the other warships that were not injured had become frightened birds and fled quickly towards the harbor, but just as they were about to rush out of the harbor, several explosions sounded, and it turned out that the two warships had encountered mines one after another.

At this time, the warships in the harbor did not dare to run away, and the warships could only take measures to save themselves on the spot.

The explosion in the harbor continued, and Li Tie had already led four submarines out of the battle, but fortunately, it was only three years now, and it was not yet the day when submarines became the protagonists of the war in ten years, but I believe that after tonight's battle, all countries in the world will increase the development of submarines.

After this same day, Li Tie believes that the German government, which still feels that the price of the latest U-boat design drawings it sells is too high, will definitely feel that the price at that time is worth it.

However, not long after Li Tie left the port of Tokyo, Li Tie's No. 1 submarine in the East China Sea suddenly found that there was a merchant ship coming in front of him.

Li Tie also wondered that this merchant ship was so bold, it was obvious that the harbor was under fierce attack, and he dared to rush back, this was the rhythm of looking for death.

I can't help but eat the fat in my mouth, and it just so happens that my own submarine has not released a single torpedo, and not a single mine has been clothed. Let's just take this merchant ship and drive meat.

Therefore, although Karl persuaded him vigorously beside him that it was not that he could not attack the other party's merchant ships during the war, Li Tie did insist on releasing two torpedoes on the grounds that the other party was blocking his own sea route.

So at Li Tie's insistence, two torpedoes accurately hit the merchant ship that was rushing to the port of Tokyo, and then, without even looking at it, Li Tie ordered the submarine to dive again and leave the coast of Tokyo.

At this time, more than a dozen warships patrolling the sea off Tokyo also received information that the harbor had been attacked, and these warships rushed to the harbor one after another.

And Li Tie held the mentality that a sheep is also a herd, and a group of sheep is also a herding, and once again ordered all submarines to lay all the remaining mines in the submarines. As for whether these mines can bring about combat results, Li Tie doesn't care at all.

In Li Tie's words, we have money, we are not afraid of waste, and we will buy two mines at a time in the future, one for training and one for play.

In this way, Li Tie left heartlessly. Walked away with a shipload full of important supplies. Went with the attack data of four submarines.

At this time, Tokyo's nightmare had just begun. The fire at the headquarters of the Black Dragon SocietyBecause the Black Dragon Society occupies a large area, the fire did not affect the surrounding residents.

Even if the fire was deliberately set by more than a dozen beggars led by Ariki on the mountain, although many houses were burned, because the fire brigade went in time and the surrounding Japanese people made every effort to rescue them, they finally controlled these dozen fires in time.

These ignitions only distracted the gendarmerie's line of sight, and did a good job of covering the evacuation of the rangers.

However, Li Tie's sneak attack on the port of Tokyo brought great disasters to Tokyo, not only two warships in the harbor were seriously injured, two warships were sunk by mines, but also six warships docked at the pier were sunk, and two warships that were being refueled caught fire and were eventually burned to scrap metal.

A rough calculation, Li Tie's results were brilliant, only this one attack, let Japan lose twelve warships, this is not counting when he went to sea, Li Tie hugged the grass to beat rabbits, and easily killed a merchant ship.

These were only the losses of warships, and the greater losses came from the port, since a large amount of supplies were piled up on the shore of the pier. As a result, several incendiary bombs caused a huge burning of supplies in the harbor.

The most serious thing was the oil and ammunition stored in the harbor, and as a result, unfortunately, because of the constant explosions in the harbor, all the water cannons were used to save the warship.

As a result, an oil dump on the shore was detonated, causing a series of explosions, and the explosion on the shore again detonated the oil depot and ammunition depot on the shore, and a louder explosion was heard.

The people of Tokyo felt the sound of the earth shaking and the entire port of Tokyo was almost flattened, and all the buildings and military facilities along the harbor, as well as all the warships in the harbor, were affected by the explosion.

The huge explosion frightened the warships that were rushing into the harbor and stopped far away on the sea, and no one dared to break into the burning harbor.

The explosion not only destroyed the entire port of Tokyo, but also caused hundreds of shells to fly for miles, knocking down all the surrounding buildings. In hindsight, thousands of houses collapsed just because of the attack on the harbour. Thousands of casualties and tens of thousands of people have been displaced.
