At the entrance to the Kanmon Strait, Saburo Suzuki stood on the deck of a merchant ship, letting the rain fall on his white navy uniform.

Entering the sea, Saburo Suzuki's mind was not calm, the combined fleet was destroyed, and the powerful navy that the Great Japanese Empire had spent countless efforts to build was over.

This made Saburo Suzuki extremely hesitant and sad.

Because his two older brothers served in the combined fleet, four brothers in the family, all four of whom joined the army, three of whom went to the navy, and one of the youngest brothers, who served in the army, is still in Siberia.

Blue Water Navy, a. At night, he became a navy that could only block the enemy with mines, and Saburo Suzuki could not be sad in his heart.

The speed of the ship slowly stopped, and the heavy anchor mine was fixed to the deck at the bow, and then the anchor mine would be thrown on the surface of the sea, and the heavy anchor would pull the floating mine under the water, and then wait quietly for the moment to touch it.

On the boat that stopped the power system, seven or eight Japanese fishermen, under the command of Saburo Suzuki, gradually untied the anchor mine fixed on the wear, and everyone present would use their nets to lift the anchor mine and then release it into the sea.

However, just when everyone started to get busy, Suzuki Saburo suddenly found out of the corner of his eye that two huge figures appeared on the sea in the distance.

A familiar feeling came to mind, it was a warship.

The next moment, Saburo Suzuki was in a hurry. He shouted to everyone who put on it: "Hurry up and push the mines into the sea, the enemy's warship is coming." ”

The Japanese fishermen who were busy were all frightened when they heard this, and there was no need to think about what would happen to an ordinary fishing boat when it encountered a warship.

They were just ordinary fishermen, so they were naturally scared, and their hands were confused.

They tried to push the mines down into the sea, but the mines weighing hundreds of kilograms were not so easy to push, and the more anxious they were, the more difficult it was to push the mines, after all, there were high guardrails on both sides of the fishing boats.

No wonder Saburo Suzuki was in a hurry, according to his experience, when he saw the enemy battleship from the height of the fishing boat, the battleship had already seen their fishing boat.

The more tense and chaotic it became, and sure enough, a cannonball flew over and landed on the water a few meters away from the fishing boat.

The huge underwater impact of the explosion made the fishing boat shake violently on the sea surface, and it was originally a circular mine, but under the vibration, it rolled to the other side, and the two Japanese fishermen, who were too late, were directly suppressed by the rolling mine.

The heavy mine, covered with a spike-like touch fuse, although it will not detonate during the rolling, but the heavy weight will be two pairs. The fisherman's legs were rolled over, and the lower half of his body was covered with flesh and blood.

Two were crushed by double. The fishermen on the legs suddenly screamed on the fishing boat, and the four or five fishermen on the side hurriedly pushed the mines away and saved their companions.

It is not difficult to push the mines on the plane when they see the mines under the four large ones that are crushed. When legs, everyone had a deep look of fear on their faces.

Glancing at the two fishermen who were wailing, a trace of unbearability flashed in Suzuki Saburo's eyes, but he knew what to do at this time: "Push the mines down first." ”

As he spoke, Saburo Suzuki had already walked to the edge of the mine and beckoned to the other fishermen.

When several able-bodied fishermen heard this, they could only take a deep breath and push the mine to the side of the fishing boat again.

Hundreds of kilograms of mines were pushed high by several people, staring at the side of the fishing boat, about to fall into the sea, but another shell came down.

This time, the shell fell closer, less than five meters from the fishing boat, and the whole fishing boat floated high above the water under the impact of the underwater explosion, and then it fell heavily.

The mines that were about to fall into the sea were also thrown high, and this time the luck was no longer there, and the fuse of the mine hit the iron guardrail on the side of the fishing boat, and the next moment everyone's consciousness was blank.

The detonated mine instantly blew the fishing boat, which was no more than a few dozen tons, into pieces, and in the dripping rain, high flames rose on the sea.

Another fishing boat a few hundred meters away was very frightened, and the mines on this one had not yet reached the sea.

The destroyer that approached here directly blew up the fishing boat with one shot, and more than a dozen fishing boats nearby were all quickly destroyed.

Except for the main guns of destroyers at the beginning of the long distance, the rest of the secondary guns were used to attack these fishing boats.

The 175-mm main gun, which is only a few tens of tons, is really useless to fight these fishing boats.

However, when the fishing boats were eliminated, three mines were pushed out into the sea and dragged underwater by anchors.

However, there are only a few mines, and the location of the launch has already been seen, so it is not difficult to remove them.

Although there is no global positioning system, each warship has the most detailed chart data, which can be accurate to ten meters unit, and lock the position of the sea area.

At the same time, Guo Shaohua of the Second Fleet also received a report from the destroyers that the Japanese had scattered around the Guanmen Strait to lay mines, and although the destroyers had destroyed more than a dozen mine-laying ships, it was too late for the Japanese to destroy all the ships before the Japanese could lay down the mines.

"Is it too late?"

Guo Shaohua frowned instinctively, but he didn't care too much, he hadn't already stopped some of them, as long as he could let the fleet pass safely, he didn't care about the mines on other waterways.

"Order the destroyer detachment to hold the channel and clear the mines that have been dropped, and wait for the fleet to arrive." Guo Shaohua pondered for a moment and then issued a new order.

The goal of the fleet was not to prevent the enemy from laying mines, but the enemy's goal of laying mines was to block the fleet's access to the Seto Inland Sea, with a safe shipping lane, which would be sufficient for the Second Fleet.

"Where is the fleet now?" Guo Shaohua asked again.

"It's less than thirty kilometers away from Kitakyushu." Someone reported it right away.

"In order to prevent too close to the mines, the fleet was ordered to prohibit approaching within 10,000 meters, and the fleet launched an artillery bombardment of factories along the coast of Kitakyushu within this distance." Guo Shaohua immediately ordered.

Half an hour later, the fleet approached the edge of Kitakyushu, and a dense burst of shells immediately fell on the coastal industrial areas of Kitakyushu.

Ports have also been targeted, including all ships.

And the fleet came all the way and also destroyed all the Japanese ships it encountered in succession, not sparing any targets.
