Dalian Lushun Port in the second half of the western month is already a piece of spring, and the breath of spring has taken the port. Embellishment is full of spring.

Su Tong and the naval commander Chen Shaokuan walked on the dock that had not yet been cleaned up, Su's wife glanced at the energetic Chen Shaokuan and smiled: "Fu Gong, you see that the geographical environment of this Port Arthur is really blessed, the two hills like left and right arms surround the port, and hold the harbor here, it is really easy to defend and difficult to attack, no wonder I and Lao Maozi have taken a fancy to it, and even fought for it", Chen Shaokuan snorted coldly, "No matter how good the port is, we must be able to defend it. Otherwise, it can only attract the prying eyes of robbers. The Lushun Massacre of that year is a vivid example, those brutes killed the residents of the city for four consecutive days after the capture of Lushun, and none of the old and weak women and children were spared. After the massacre, only 36 people were left in the city to bury the bodies of their compatriots, and more than 20,000 were killed. Isn't this tragedy enough to wake us up? Without the protection of a strong navy, China will never be able to become a great power. ”

Su Tong looked at this stubborn old man with a stinky temper and could only smile bitterly: "Okay, my commander, in a few days, the two heavy cruisers and four light cruisers of the Americans will arrive, so don't nag in front of me." ”

…… Hum! How can a cruiser be compared to an aircraft carrier, why didn't you want a couple of aircraft carriers when you were negotiating with that Yankee. Chen Shaokuan did not accept Su Tong's affection, and stubbornly proposed his own plan.

As early as 1928, Chen Shaokuan, then commander of the Second Fleet of the Huaxia Navy, wrote a letter requesting 20 million yuan to build China's first aircraft carrier (hereinafter referred to as the aircraft carrier). Build an aircraft carrier! That's definitely a bombshell in the Chinese military circles! The news spread, and everyone talked about it. Building aircraft carriers is of course a good thing, but does Huaxia have the strength? At this time, Chairman Jiang did not want to contribute money, but also did not want to lose the hearts of the people, so he resorted to the words "delay", the word: five years, ten years and fifteen years, and drew a big pie for Chen Shaokuan. In a blink of an eye, the Anti-Japanese War was reached, and Chen Shaokuan's little family background in the Chinese Navy was tossed away, and Chen Shaokuan was still dreaming of a naval power: from Liaodong to the Sino-Vietnamese border in the South China Sea, it was divided into four major theaters, and 20 aircraft carriers were built, each costing about 1.8 billion legal currency. This is really a "grand cause," and it has all said at once the practice and ideals of the Chinese Navy in the next few decades. The opposite of persistence is stubbornness. In Chen Shaokuan's view, he is practicing his dream of becoming a naval power: in the eyes of others, this is stubbornness and foolish dreams. Chairman Jiang was stunned when he saw Chen Shaokuan's plan. Chen Shaokuan, Chen Shaokuan, not to mention losing all your money, you still have to burn money to build an aircraft carrier, are you crazy? From this time, Chen Shaokuan's career began to be unlucky.

Later, after Chen Shaokuan joined Su Tong's command, he still had a deep affection for the aircraft carrier, and he reported all day long to establish an aircraft carrier formation, so that Su Tong also experienced the pain of the chairman.

Su Tong looked at this old man who had worked diligently all his life for the dream of an aircraft carrier in China, and his naïve temperament was nearly half cute, and secretly sighed in his heart, Since Lao Jiang can't fulfill your wishes, let me fulfill your dreams.

Thinking of this, Su Tong smiled and said: "Fu Gong, the food has to be eaten in one bite, and the road has to be walked step by step, now we have everything just started, and there is a shortage of personnel, I plan to expand the scale of the submarine force to 100 by the end of the year, and the scale of surface ships to 300,000 tons The premise of completing this expansion is that a large number of people are needed, Fu Gong, can you complete it for me?" ”

Sure enough, as soon as he heard about the expansion of the navy, Chen Shaokuan's spiritual head came, and he patted his chest and said: "Okay, no problem, as long as we can expand our navy, I am tired and willing." ”

Su Tong smiled: "Fu Gong, you can't be tired to death, if you are tired, where can I find such a good naval commander?" After saying that, the two looked at each other and laughed.

The two walked all the way to the end of the dock, and saw the choppy waves under their feet, Su Tong pointed to the rings on both sides of the port, and said: "This time, the 'day' himself hastily withdrew, but their navy has not yet been hit, and with the character of the 'day' himself, he may not know when it will come." Therefore, our top priority is to station shore-based aircraft here, at least the size of a division, and to build shore defense guns here and expand the port. Next month, when the Americans' two heavy cruisers and four light cruisers arrive, they will be stationed here, and we must not allow our country to repeat the days when there was no defense at sea............" At the end of his speech, Su Tong looked deeply into Chen Shaokuan's eyes, as if asking about his determination.

Chen Jingkuan straightened his chest, looked at Su Tong with a serious expression, and reported loudly: "Please rest assured, sir, you must do your best to die for yourself." Just when Su Tong and Chen Shaokuan were sketching the blueprint of the future Chinese Navy, 500 kilometers away from Peter the Great Bay, a submarine was sailing quickly on the sea. Standing in the control tower, Ryuyu listened carefully to the Luna's constant reports on the location of ships on the nearby sea.

"Report, sonar echoes of large ships were heard from the northwest, ten kilometers away. The target speed is sixteen knots. ”

"Good!" Long Yu Shen commanded: "Immediately inform the rest of the ships of the enemy's position, let them come quickly, and wait for the attack after dark, and now the sonar soldiers continue to lock on the position of the enemy ships." ”

A formation of ships with ointment flags was cruising on the sea, led by a large battleship, which was carrying out the patrol and blockade mission, and the Fuso, the battleship, Captain Jizaburo Ozawa was still standing on the bridge he liked and looking out at the sea.

By his side was the chief of staff Fukuda Nakasa accompanying him, and Ozawa Jizaburo sighed faintly and said, "Fukuda-kun, the Imperial Army was defeated in Manchuria, and General Umezu Mijiro ran to Korea with 200,000 remnants, do you know what this means?" Without waiting for Fukuda Nakasa to answer Ozawa Jizaburo, he said to himself: "This means that the continental policy of the empire, which has been operating for nearly half a century, is about to undergo fundamental changes, and our empire has reached a crossroads, and this choice is related to the future fate of our empire." ”

Fukuda Nakasa gloated on the side and said: "Those armies are all waste, there are 800,000 army troops and more than 2 million immigrants from the country, and they actually let the people of China send back to North Korea, and General Umezu Mijiro should commit suicide by disembowelment to thank the countrymen!" ”

"Yaga!"

As soon as Fukuda Nakasa's voice fell, he was scolded by Ozawa Jizaburo Osa, "Although our navy and the army are not compatible, but after all, they are all the subjects of His Majesty the Emperor, if there is no army to expand the territory of the empire, no matter how strong our navy is, can you still drive the warship to land?" Our navy and army are like His Majesty's feet, and they are indispensable. You have to remember that a person who walks on only one foot can't go far! ”

"Hello! I'm sorry! Seeing that his boss was angry, Fukuda Nakasa quickly bowed his head and confessed.

"Alas!" Ozawa Jizaburo Osa sighed softly, "Manchuria is lost, and there is little point in us patrolling here, we can only empty fuel consumption." I don't think it's going to take time for the telegram to recall us. ”

Time passed little by little, and Ozawa Jizaburo Osa and Fukuda Nakasa didn't know that while they were talking, at the bottom of the sea not far ahead, a swarthy underwater killer had already stared at its prey with sharp eyes, even though this prey was countless times larger and larger than its own, it was not afraid.

"Good guy, this big guy is, Fuso, battleship, we met the big guy!" Long Yu stared at the periscope, the Fuso, the huge chimney, and couldn't suppress Xinfeng's surprise.

"Huh? What's the matter, why did those "days" themselves change course again? At this time, the Japanese fleet in the periscope began to turn and sail in the other direction.

"Captain, it seems that the 'Japan's fleet' is about to return." The sonar crew, who had been listening, reported.

Seeing that the fleet in the periscope turned around and was about to sail into the distance, Long Yu couldn't help but get anxious in his heart, it seemed that he couldn't wait for the arrival of the rest of the ships to attack, and it was unrealistic to let the submarine compare the speed with the surface ships.

"Head, are we still fighting?" The first mate on the side asked softly.

This is a difficult choice, and it is very dangerous to attack a large surface fleet during the day without the cooperation of friendly forces, and it is impossible to even get into it.

At this time, the eyes of everyone in the command tower were looking at Long Yu, who looked at the clear ship in the periscope and the ointment flag on it, and ordered with a horizontal heart: "The torpedo compartment is immediately filled with water, loaded with torpedoes, and the depth rises to twenty meters." ”

"Yes, the torpedo compartment is filled with water, and the torpedo is loaded!" The order was quickly delivered, and the undersea killer began to get busy as if it had been wound up.

Soon, all departments reported that "the torpedo is ready and ready to be fired!" ”

", Fuso, the battleship is 1,800 meters away from our ship!"

"Okay, azimuth zero 20, target enemy, Fuso, battleship! The torpedo is set to a depth of two meters! Torpedoes from one to six are fired in a fan shape! Shoot one! ", Shoot two!" ......, shoot three! "Shoot six!"

After a short while, the submarine shook slightly several times before the torpedo compartment came to report: "Report to the captain, the torpedo has been fired!" ”

"Lower the periscope! Quickly dive to 80 meters and evacuate! ”

After the torpedo was fired, the huge body of the submarine turned around like a frightened whale and dived rapidly into the deep sea, but everyone in the submarine knew that the hard battle had just begun! ~！
