Chapter 988: The Navy Rises to the Glory of Taiwan Island (Ask for Subscription!) )

The Navy is proud of Keelung Harbor

The Supreme Governor's Office of the Japanese Army in Taipei, which is located in Taipei, began to spread rapidly in the city with one rumor after another. *.*.*/* Groups of imp expatriates began to gather in groups, shouting slogans, besieging the Governor's Palace, waiting for a concrete response from the Governor's Palace. The whole of Taipei, including the Taiwan region, was suddenly plunged into chaos.

"Baga, the cunning Shina, the cunning Shina, actually used such despicable means, Bage Yalu..." In the face of the agitated expatriates and Taiwanese people. As the governor, General Ando Toshiyoshi, in a short period of time, what he can do is to vent the anger in his heart on the subordinates in front of him.

"Hayi, please calm your anger..."In the face of anger, in order to avoid anger, the subordinates who had been on fire could only reply resignedly.

"Eight Grid Tooth Road, Anger Relief, Anger Relief Can Solve the Dilemma We Are Facing at Present? Shut up for me... ̈ Iyama-kun, you are the chief of the general staff of our Taiwan garrison, what can you do about the bad situation that our army is currently facing in the Taiwan region? , To a group of incompetent staff subordinates, Ando Jili scolded angrily. Then, he set his sights on his only old partner he could rely on.

"Your Excellency, in the words of the people of China, paper will never contain fire. Since the people of China have made these things public through airplane leaflets, we can only inform the people of the facts. However, I think that while informing the people, the political propaganda of the people of China has also pointed out a way for our army to solve the current situation and turn the disadvantage into an advantage..."After a short period of contemplation, the chief of staff, Lieutenant General Haruki Isayama, replied affirmatively.

"Well, it's a sure thing to make it public. Otherwise, we will not be able to quell the anger of the nearly one million expatriates in the entire Taiwan region, and more importantly, it will affect the morale of our 10 th Front Army. Governor General Ando Gichiri affirmed.

"As for the solution you just said?"

"Propaganda, with the help of this incident, announced to all the troops stationed in the Taiwan region and the overseas Chinese that once the Chinese army invades Taiwan, all the overseas Chinese and troops in the entire Taiwan region will be bloodily slaughtered by the Chinese army. I believe that as long as this order is issued, the entire Taiwan region, nearly one million overseas Chinese will work with our army with one heart and one mind to fight the enemy..."

"Yo Xi, it's a good way, it's really a good way.... Isayama-kun, since you came up with this solution, then I'll leave it to you. Remember, we must resolve the current predicament in the Taiwan region in the shortest possible time, so that the low morale of our army can be restored once again. [].”

"In addition, if the Chinese army, with the cooperation of its current naval and air forces, will launch an all-out attack on Taiwan. With the 10th Front Army stationed in the Taiwan region alone, it is impossible to block the offensive of the squadron. After several decades of development, our army has hoarded a large amount of weapons and ammunition in the Taiwan region, and even if it is equipped with another 200,000 elites, it will definitely not be a problem. Therefore, you must expand the army when the overseas Chinese are excited, make sure that the total strength of our Taiwan garrison reaches 400,000, and replace the local Taiwan troops stationed in various places..." Governor General Ando Gichiri ordered with a confident face...

"Ha Yi, I understand the lowly duty...."

Just when Governor General Ando Jili thought that this strategy could change the current bad situation in the Taiwan region and turn the disadvantage into an advantage. He did not know that on the sea less than 50 nautical miles from the Keelung Military Port, the Japanese naval base in the Taiwan region, China's East China Sea Fleet, which had just been formed for less than half a year, had already cut through the waves and sailed mightily toward the Keelung Military Port under the personal command of Navy Commander Chen Shaokuan.

It turned out that after the political propaganda offensive was launched, Liu Hua set his goal on the second round of offensive, that is, to continue to increase the blow to the morale of the Japanese puppet army in the Taiwan region. …,

Because the time for the general offensive has not yet arrived, the participating army is not in place, and all that Liu Hua can use is China's weakest naval and air forces. And in order for the attacking forces to successfully land on the island of Taiwan, a strong and powerful naval force is necessary.

Under Liu Hua's order, the East China Sea Fleet, which had just arrived in Quanzhou, had not yet had time to take any rest. He was ready to lead the entire fleet, including the light aircraft carrier named "Taiwan," which had just formed a combat force, to the Taiwan Naval Base. With China's weakest naval forces, the port of Keelung will continue to fight at the increasingly low morale of the Japanese puppet army.

"Report to the commander, the reconnaissance of carrier-based aircraft shows that our East China Sea Fleet is only less than 50 nautical miles away from Keelung Port. At the same time, preliminary reconnaissance by carrier-based reconnaissance planes showed that one cruiser, three destroyers, and 15 large and small ships, including all gunboats and torpedo boats, were docked in the military port. Judging from the current movements of the Japanese troops in the port, they have not discovered the East China Sea Fleet that our army is about to visit the Keelung Military Port... Taiwan, in the command room of the light aircraft carrier, an operations staff officer quickly reported.

"Commissar, what do you think?" The operational staff officer's voice fell, and Chen Shaokuan put his eyes on Zhang Aiping, the political commissar beside him who was studying naval combat knowledge on his own and admired more and more, and asked.

"Lao Chen, the order given to us by the vice chairman is to raise the prestige of the Keelung Military Port, deter the Taiwan garrison, and deal a severe blow to the increasingly low morale of the Japanese troops stationed in Taiwan. In addition, the only fleet of the Japanese army stationed in Taiwan was stationed in Keelung Harbor, and the Japanese army did not know anything about our intentions. So, I think it's a great opportunity for our Navy to take over the island of Taiwan..." Political Commissar Zhang Aiping pondered.

"With the current strength of our East China Sea Fleet and the more than 30 carrier-based aircraft on the aircraft carrier, plus the tactical tactics of our surprise attack. We could have sunk all the Japanese ships anchored in Keelung Harbor at a very small cost. Since the political commissar also has such an idea, then let's do it... ̈" Chen Shaokuan said with a look of approval.

The newly formed naval fleet can finally go to war. As the commander, Chen Shaokuan's face was already shrouded in excitement and expectation. Then, facing the subordinates in front of him who were also looking forward to it, he ordered with a calm face.

"Order, all ships, immediately bring them into combat readiness. The 1st Carrier-based Air Regiment immediately dispatched reconnaissance planes to reconnoiter as much as possible the various military forts deployed by the Japanese army in Keelung Harbor, especially the heavy artillery of the port fortress and the nearby airfield. Ministries, start moving right away. ”

"Yes, Commander... ̈"

Although, the ships at this time, whether they are ordinary destroyers, or aircraft carriers. With the continuous change and development of the times, in terms of power, it has slowly tended to fuel power. However, for captured Japanese ships, coal burning was still mainstream.

After the carrier-based reconnaissance plane returned to the aircraft carrier with the latest information, several huge columns of black smoke rising over various warships also appeared on the sea surface dozens of nautical miles outside the Keelung Military Port.

At this moment, because of the increasingly critical decisive battle in the Pacific, the Japanese Navy could not be in this sea area at all. So, when a few thick puffs of black smoke just appeared in the telescope of the Japanese observation post in the port. A series of piercing sirens began to echo over Keelung Harbor....

"Buzz...."

The Japanese troops in the military port, who had not yet waited, reacted from the sudden sound of the siren. On the USS Taiwan, a light aircraft carrier, one after another carrier-based bombers have already taken off into the air, with a huge roar, and rushed towards the Navy's Keelung Harbor, which was already in chaos at this moment. ..., "Yaga, enemy attack, quickly hide... The air defense troops, immediately enter the position, ready to counterattack..."In the midst of one exclamation after another, hundreds of little devils quickly pounced on their positions. A total of 24 carrier-based bombers, unexpectedly, in the face of the chaotic Keelung military port, did not make any stops, but with a huge whistling sound, directly pounced on the military airfield behind the port ....

"Bastards, the goal of the Chinese is not us, it is the airport. What are you doing in a daze, you immediately use the phone to notify the rear airfield, take off all the fighters, and prepare to meet the enemy..."Looking at the bomber group whizzing past in the sky. Major General Meggie, the supreme commander of the Japanese forces in Keelung Port, can imagine what kind of fate Keelung Port will fall under the attack of the squadron ** aircraft carrier formation after losing the cover of the air force at the airport. Staring at a pair of reddened rigors, he almost roared and ordered at his subordinates who were still stunned.

"Hayi, Your Excellency Commander...."

An airfield a few kilometers away from the port, for a fast-flying carrier-based bomber, it takes less than a minute. And one minute was simply not enough for the Japanese combat planes in the airfield to take off. Accompanied by bombshells, with a sharp whistling sound, smashed into the airport.

A series of Japanese planes ready to fly, including the pilots in the cabin. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a huge fireball....

Looking at the direction of the airport behind the port, in less than a few minutes, billowing smoke rose into the air. The commander, Major General Meggie, knew that the airfield was finished, and the only aviation force in his hands was finished.

At the same time, after the loss of air support, the Keelung military port in front of him, including the entire fleet moored in the military port, is only one step away from destruction.

"Yaga, since they are all one death, the Imperial Japanese Army only has warriors who died in battle, and there are no soldiers waiting for death. Order, all ships in the military port immediately start and launch a counteroffensive, the target is the Chinese fleet outside the military port. Order the offshore fleet to crush the attack of the Chinese fleet at any cost ....." Major General Meggie, who was ruthless, ordered with a murderous face.

"Hayi, Your Excellency Commander..."

Looking at the fast-departing Chief of Staff, Major Meggie continued to open his mouth and order.

"You, immediately use the radio to send a battle report to His Excellency the Governor: Our Keelung Military Port has been attacked by the Chinese Navy's aircraft carrier fleet, and by the time the report is issued, an air wing attached to our Keelung Military Port has been completely wiped out. At the same time, the humble post has ordered all ships in the military port to take the initiative to attack the Chinese aircraft carrier fleet, vowing to live and die with the Keelung military port...."

"Ha Yi, I'm going to do it right away...."
