Chapter 529, Wang Yizhe recovers the Northeast 5.
Kaga. Dozens of powerful searchlights on the ship shone towards the sea next to the ship, and for a while, the sea near Kaga was illuminated as if it were day. "Not good, I found a torpedo trail on the starboard side of my ship!" ”。 One of the watchmen pointed to his right and yelled in horror. At this time, Yamada Rishishi Osa had already arrived in the wheelhouse, "When the warning of the fat sailor was transmitted to the wheelhouse through the loudspeaker, Yamada Rishishi Osa raised his binoculars and looked to starboard.
Four faint trails appeared in front of Yamada Rishida's lenses, but these trails were so inconspicuous that they were barely noticed by the sailors when they entered a distance of more than 300 meters and happened to be illuminated by searchlights. "Hurry up and drop!" Right full rudder。。 Yamada Risaki Osa roared at the helmsman. "Hello! Full rudder right! ", replied the helmsman aloud.
To say that the quality of the Japanese Navy is also among the best in the world, a large aircraft carrier with a displacement of 42,541 tons is under the control of the helmsman. A nice arc was drawn on the surface of the sea. There were three more torpedoes at a short distance, but one more torpedo hit the head of the aircraft carrier. "Boom! ”。 There was a dull sound, and everyone in the cab was shaken. Yamada Rishi's face is getting more and more pale, the aircraft carrier was hit by three torpedoes in just ten minutes, and now a large amount of water is flooding the ship, and the damage management personnel are urgently trying to plug the loopholes.
"Report to Your Excellency Captain, the head of our aircraft carrier was shot at a three-meter-long size. Seawater is pouring in, and damage management personnel are unable to repair it. Now, please order the closure of the ship's head passage, and seal it... A damage management officer hurriedly came to report. "Yes, yes!" Now close the head passage of the aircraft carrier and seal it immediately! Yamada agreed without hesitation. , Kaga, after the attack on the entire task force was like a girl frightened by hooligans. All jumped up, and more than a dozen destroyers and frigates rushed towards the aircraft carrier Kaga at the same time.
, Kaga, also barely dragged his heavy body towards the front of the fleet and lost, as long as he returned to the fleet Japan. It can be protected by destroyers and frigates. Just as Kaga, the seriously wounded and struggling to meet the frigates in the fleet came to meet them, an even greater disaster came. "Woooooo The grim collision alarm sounded again, and the Lookout sailor sounded the alarm again. ", port side found every thunder! A hundred meters away! ”。 At this time, the submarine 0003, hidden on the left side, finally launched a torpedo.
This time, Yamada was too late to order the helmsman, so he grabbed the rudder and desperately hit the left. It's a pity that it's too late" The distance of more than two hundred meters is only less than ten seconds for a torpedo with a speed of nearly fifty knots, Yamada is determined to be a big saga, no matter how big his ability is, it is impossible to turn the aircraft carrier into an airplane so agile, the sailors on the aircraft carrier watched the four torpedoes fan towards him, and they all closed their eyes in despair, "Boom, boom, boom.............
Without hesitation, three torpedoes rushed into the wounded Kaga's body, and the violent explosion and strong vibration shook everyone to the ground. "Your Excellency, Captain, a torpedo hit the boiler compartment part. Now there is a massive influx of seawater。。 "Your Excellency, due to a large amount of water ingress into our ship, the hull has been tilted thirteen degrees, please instruct Your Excellency. ”
Bad news keeps coming. The already battered aircraft carrier is getting worse and worse. "Order the damage management personnel to make every effort to rescue and never let the aircraft carrier sink。。 Yamada Rishi Osa howled like crazy,,Chicheng,Yamamoto Fifty-six on the ship learned the news of the attack on Kaga,The intestines were about to repent,I actually forgot about the submarine.,I originally thought that the other side only had a few small ships The Shina Navy actually has a submarine This kind of underwater weapon,It turns out that they have long been lurking in their own channels waiting for themselves to give themselves a fatal blow after exposing their flaws.。
And he stupidly sent Kaga, the number to other people's mouths, this is for fear that people will not attack him! A communications officer rushed into the command room and reported, "Report to Your Excellency the Commander," Kaga, sent a telegram. They have now been hit by six heavy torpedoes, and now a large number of people have flooded the ship, and the ship has been tilted 18 degrees. ”。
Yoshiryu Tanaka seemed to be a few years older. A sentence slowly spit out of his mouth: "Order" Kaga, the flagship, it's useless... , "Commander。。 The officers in the command room shouted at the same time in grief, "Commander, you can't abandon the ship." Kaga, the first heavy aircraft carrier in our empire! ”。 Tanaka Karyu waved his hand weakly, "I don't know this," but do you think, "Kaga, is there any salvation?" ”
After listening to Tanaka Yoshiryu's words, everyone kept their mouths shut, if they could not sink after being hit by six heavy torpedoes, unless Asunasu himself intervened. , "Woo woo,。。 An officer finally couldn't help but cry out, "Why? Why。。
"Because we all despise the people of China too much!." Tanaka said weakly. "There is such a sentence in the art of war that arrogant soldiers will be defeated, this may be the punishment of Amaterasu for our pride!" Still", . Tanaka Yoshiryu then said with a blushing face, "How can these people leave without paying a price after attacking our aircraft carrier?" Order the destroyers Lin Xu Maru, the Lost and Cangju and the six frigates to immediately search along the channel attacked by the people just now, and be sure to sink them." , "Hay。。
The officers wiped away their tears and their eyes showed a fierce glint. In the war room, the battle order was given....... Not to mention that the Japanese destroyers and frigates were frantically searching around looking for submarines under the water, just saying that the dragon palace, which was already a few miles away, saw that it was already there, and when the aircraft carrier Kaga was already tilting rapidly, they knew that Kaga was already helpless.
, "Captain, the Japanese abandoned the ship。。 Mu Yu, who was sticking to the periscope to observe the movement of the sea, shouted excitedly. "Humph! Little Japan is also today." "Okay, all the crew pay attention, the Japanese destroyer is coming, everyone cheers up." Torpedo compartment, hurry up and load the torpedo。。 As the captain of the Qingdao 0001 submarine and the captain of the submarine brigade, Huzi still has a lot to consider, and he also knows that now is not the time to celebrate, and there are still two submarines in his submarine brigade that have not yet escaped.
On the surface of the sea, there were nine warships throwing depth charges frantically around, and one after another depth charges continued to explode on the bottom of the sea, and for a time the sea surface was tumbling, full of momentum. But unfortunately, for the Japanese, who had not yet installed sonar on their ships, it was undoubtedly a needle in a haystack to find a submarine hidden deep in the water, and the three Japanese destroyers and six frigates were busy for a while and then left in a huff with nothing. ,"Report, 0002, 0003 submarine report. They have now disengaged from the Japanese ships. Coming towards our ship... The Chief of Communications reported.
"Okay, order them to return immediately!" Also, the submarine 0004, which was in charge of covering, was ordered to return with us immediately! Huzi knew that he could accept it, otherwise he could not guarantee that he would be able to return safely with everyone. "Report, the base ordered us to rush to the sea off Vladivostok at full speed at once to assist our ships in searching for my overboard pilot. The communications chief suddenly reported again!
Huzi sighed, knowing that most of the day had passed. The pilots have little chance of survival, but let's do their best! "Command all units to move at full speed to the mission location, remember, full speed ahead .......
In this way, the Japanese mixed fleet lost one battleship and one heavy cruiser and seven destroyer frigates, followed by a 45,000-ton heavy aircraft carrier, which was enough to shock the whole country.
In April 1941, an astonishing piece of news exploded in the air like a spring thunderbolt, rumbling across the land of China, and the world also felt its tremors. This winter thunder pierced the thick haze over China and sprinkled a ray of hope on the earth.
"Extra! Extra! Our heroic Heilongjiang Group Army sank seven Japanese troops, the aircraft carrier Kaga, the battleship Nagato, the Furutaka, and the heavy cruiser and destroyer frigate off Vladivostok。。 "Extra! Extra! The Japanese Navy suffered a tragic defeat at Waterloo "was severely attacked by our heroic naval aviation and raised the prestige of our country。。 The news that the Japanese navy suffered a heavy loss in Vladivostok soon spread all over the world, and people paid attention to the immature navy of China.
Admiral Wang Yizhe, commander of the Heilongjiang Group Army, also proudly announced to the outside world that the shore-based aircraft and submarine units of the Heilongjiang Group Army had joined hands to severely damage a total of 10 Japanese warships, including the aircraft carrier Kaga, and the myth of the Japanese Navy's invincibility had been shattered! We also have our own navy in China!
When the radio waves of sea cucumber's true victory in the open sea spread in all directions, the Chinese people swept away the dullness that had been suppressed for too long. Everyone was ecstatic, and the whole country was in a boiling of cheers. On this day, the pessimistic atmosphere of passivity and stubbornness in the hearts of Chinese people and hatred of iron and steel was swept away, and a long-suppressed evil spirit was spit out.
Ever since the First Sino-Japanese Naval War, China has been in a dilemma of having no sea to defend itself, and a huge country has allowed the warships of the world powers to act recklessly on its coastline and inland waterways.
They can ram the fishing boats of China at will and shell the land of China, and the majesty of China is still of course gone, and Japan is particularly rampant, and now the victory of the Heilongjiang Group Army is like blowing a loud horn for attack, and they are announcing to the world that we in China also have our own navy!
Wang Yizhe, the naval headquarters in Vladivostok, was listening to Chen Shaokuan's report on the battle, which had arrived in a hurry. "At that time, the sea was full of floating corpses and debris, and most of our pilots were submerged in the icy sea within a few hours after they fell into the water, and when our rescue fleet arrived three hours later, we barely rescued thirty-seven, and the rest of the nearly 100 pilots who fell into the water were killed....."
Listening to Chen Shaokuan's narration, Wang Yizhe's heart couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, the loss of more than 200 planes and hundreds of pilots, these are the elites that Hainan Airlines has cultivated with great difficulty! I didn't expect to lose so much in one battle, and this time HNA can be described as a big loss of vitality. Wang Yizhe stood up, looked at the few trees outside the window whose leaves were gradually turning green, and turned back to Chen Shaokuan and said, "Commander Chen, our warriors died well, they defended the security and dignity of the motherland's territory and territorial waters. Their blood will not be shed in vain, and now the whole world knows that we have a heroic contingent of naval aviation, and in the future when we have our own aircraft carriers, they will be the first carrier-based pilots. Chen Shaokuan muttered, "Sir, can we have our own aircraft carrier?" ”
"There will be, everything will be there, I promise you! You, the commander of the navy, will surely sail on the blue ocean on our own aircraft carrier in the future, defending our sea frontier with our own great wall of steel and weapons! Wang Yizhe encouraged Chen Shaokuan: "Now your most important task is to run our naval school well and train a large number of talents for our navy, so that our navy will not have a situation where there are warships but no one pilots them!" ”
Hearing Wang Yizhe say this, Chen Shaokuan's old face turned rare red, Wang Yizhe inadvertently said this sentence just said that he just set off yesterday when the navy had an affair, just yesterday, Wang Yizhe ordered him to take a group of officers and men of the navy's submarine force to receive the eight newly arrived submarines, but when Chen Shaokuan was happy to send people to receive them, he was embarrassed to find that the navy's submariners were not manpowered, and finally had to reluctantly scrape together more than 400 people to receive submarines.
He knew that when Wang Yizhe said this sentence today, he was vaguely telling him not to be greedy, but to lay a good foundation slowly and steadily. If the shipyard is built and produces large ships, such as cruisers, battleships and even aircraft carriers, what does he want to control these big guys? Those large surface ships need not dozens or hundreds, but tens of thousands!
Wang Yizhe didn't think much after seeing Chen Shaokuan comprehend what he meant, and said with a smile: "Commander Chen, it's good that you can think of this, in short, our purpose is to rather let people wait for equipment, and never let equipment wait for people!" Chen Shaokuan said solemnly: "Yes, remember the teachings of the chief!" "Well, it's good if you can remember......."
In the base camp of Tokyo, Japan's current land minister Suzuki Kantaro is sitting at one end of the desk with a gloomy face, and opposite him is Japan's sea minister Mitsumasa Yoneuchi, at this time Mitsumasa Yonechi is slowly drinking boiled water that originally had no taste, but now he is drinking it deliciously, as if it is a liquid of elixir and jade. The meeting, chaired by Emperor Hirohito himself, had only one topic: how to save the 500,000 Japanese Kwantung Army in Manchuria.
The just-concluded battle off Vladivostok made everyone feel the crisis, and the Seventh Theater dispatched hundreds of warplanes to bombard the Japanese task force, blowing up the task force and sinking the aircraft carrier 'Kaga' and the battleship 'Nagato,' giving a resounding slap in the face to Mitsumasa Yonechi, who boasted about the invincibility of the Japanese Navy all day long.
Later, the base camp dismissed Yoshitaka Tanaka from his post as commander of the First Fleet and let him rest at home. The top brass of the Navy is dissatisfied with this decision, because Tanaka Yoshiryu's prestige in the Navy is not as high as ordinary, and now he has been dismissed because of a defeat, which makes the Navy how convincing!
But without Tanaka Yoshiryu, it was Emperor Hirohito's meaning, and the navy had to pinch its nose and admit it. But for the land minister Suzuki Kantaro who was driving the trouble at the meeting at that time, he completely hated it.
At today's meeting, the Manchurian issue was discussed, and the army demanded that the navy must once again send a task force to Vladivostok to suppress the forces there, so that it would not dare to send troops and troops in the Tongliao area to attack Manchuria from east to west, so that the Second Flying Division of Jilin Province could rush to Liaoning to relieve the siege of Tongliao.
However, this proposal was strongly opposed by Mitsumasa Yonechi, who claimed that the strength of the navy had been dealt a major blow, and what was needed now was to urgently allocate funds to build new ships and restore strength, rather than fighting with people again. So at the imperial meeting, the land minister and the sea minister pinched each other.
"Zhuqing, now the situation in Manchuria is critical, what do you think you should do?" Hirohito's heart was actually quite unpleasant, not to mention the loss of the navy, that is, seeing that the situation in Manchuria was so critical now, but the two bigwigs of the navy and army were still fighting each other, he felt that there was a nameless fire surging in his heart.
Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace on the side said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the navy has been defeated at the beginning, and it is really inappropriate to let them go to Vladivostok again, we should quickly replenish the fighters of the First Flying Division lost by the Kwantung Army, and send another flying division to support, so that we can be sure to gain air supremacy over Tongliao." ”
The experience of Tongliao profoundly taught the Japanese that in the war of this era, losing air supremacy is equivalent to losing half of the war, because now the base camp attaches much more importance to the air force, and many new fighter projects are also on the agenda. "Hmph, but now we don't have so many fighters on our own territory to supplement the deficit of the Kwantung Army." General Kantaro Suzuki, the land minister on the side, rolled his eyes on the side, if there are so many fighters to replenish us, why did we come to this meeting?
At this time, Hirohito spoke, "If there are not enough planes, they will be transferred from the Guards Flying Division guarding the homeland, and if they are not enough, they can be transferred from other battlefields in China." "Your Majesty, no, the Guards Flying Division is going to defend the mainland, if the fighters are transferred to China, what will happen to the air defense of the mainland?" As soon as Hirohito's words came out, Prince Zaihito of the idle courtyard became panicked.
Hirohito's face was gloomy, "Hmph! Even if there is a Guards Flying Division, what can you do, isn't Jiang Qiang's bombers still coming and going to bomb Tokyo freely? ”
"Your Majesty's atonement!" As soon as Hirohito said this, everyone left their seats and bowed 90 degrees to Hirohito. Hirohito sighed, "Okay, let's not fight, I've made up my mind." Besides, didn't you say that the new fighter will be produced in two months? When the time comes, it will be a priority to replenish the Guards Division. ”
"Your Majesty is wise!" The crowd was silent for a while before reluctantly agreeing to the plan. In the end, the meeting decided to transfer 200 fighters from the Guards Flying Division and to immediately send more than 100 fighters and pilots produced in recent times to the Tongliao battlefield to fight for air supremacy with the Heilongjiang Group Army in order to relieve the danger of Tongliao. But can the battle situation in Tongliao really wait for their arrival?
At this time in Tongliao, Chang Jingwu Zheng commanded more than 200,000 troops under his command to fight one after another on the Tongliao battlefield, because Dalin was occupied, the Japanese army's supplies could not be transported, and the Japanese army was forced to retreat. The 500,000-strong army has lost nearly 200,000 so far, and the remaining 300,000 troops have retreated to the rear of Dalin County in spite of Tojo Hideki's strict orders, and are retreating to Liaoyuan.
"Quick, order the troops to speed up! Be sure to catch up with the little devils! "I just eliminated a Japanese wing that was on a blocking mission, and Commander Su Haicheng of the 41st Infantry Division was sitting in a jeep and was chasing the Japanese army with his troops." Division, we're too far ahead, why don't we wait for other troops to pursue us? The chief of staff suggested from the side.
Su Haicheng shook his head, "Now that the Japanese army is defeated, we must catch up with them before they flee to Liaoyuan, otherwise there will be no chance." "But...."The chief of staff still wanted to persuade Liao Yaoxiang, but was glared at by Su Haicheng, "It's nothing, carry out the order!" "Yes!"
The military order was like a mountain, and the chief of staff had no choice but to order the troops to speed up the march. Su Haicheng led the troops to pursue the Japanese army, which can be described as high-spirited, but in the headquarters of the Kwantung Army, it was gloomy. Hideki Tojo received an army of 500,000 but was still defeated, and after retreating to Liaoyuan, he locked himself in his office for a whole afternoon and did not come out.
Hideki Tojo had lost a lot of weight in a few days, and his eyes were dull for a while, "Am I really wrong?" Are the 500,000 valiant soldiers of the Kwantung Army really no match for the Shina people? Why is it so difficult for me to recover Heilongjiang? ”
At this time, the door of the office opened, and Ishihara and Umezu Mijiro walked in together, and Ishihara Wanji said, "Tojo-kun, hurry up and stop it, while the current situation has not eroded to the point of no return." ”
"Hmph..... Stop, now that the troops are already retreating, does it make any difference if I don't stop it? Hideki Tojo smiled bitterly. Of course, there is a difference, now that the people of China are taking advantage of the victory, Liaoyuan is already undefendable, we must quickly order the troops to withdraw to Jinzhou, as long as Jinzhou is held, we have the hope of keeping it, do you understand? Ishihara said earnestly.
Hideki Tojo was stunned for a while, and then he sighed and said to Umezu Mijiro, "Your Excellency Commander, I'm really sorry for this incident, I'm going to write to the base camp to ask for guilt, and Ishihara-kun will trouble you and Ishihara-kun about the retreat!" With that, Tojo had already walked out of the office.
