Li and the other team stayed, and Ge Ning's team also had no choice.Because they go deep into the port area and attract the attention of the shore navy.Soon Ge Ning and the others found that the pressure had doubled and they had to quickly shift positions.

"Captain, we should break out in the direction of the port, but the direction is wrong!"

Ge Ning retreated while fighting, "I can't go back. If we retreat towards the submarine at this time, it will inevitably increase the pressure on other teams, and it is more likely that the location of the submarine will be exposed and the plan will fail. Pass my order and strengthen it." Firepower, attract these Japanese troops to me!"

The entire Yokosuka Port was already in chaos. Many workers fled in panic, but were killed in the shooting of the Japanese army.On a hillock outside the port, Ge Ning, He Xu, and Zhang Yirong were injured to varying degrees, and Ni Ya and Ren Bo were killed in the retreat.

The grief in the eyes of the three couldn't be concealed, but no one spoke, and only the sound of wind and heavy breathing could be heard in their ears.Not far away, the footsteps of the Japanese army's search are getting closer and closer, but Ge Ning and others are keeping their eyes on the target in the port area.

At 28:[-], the Yokosuka port area has long been quiet, and it is not known whether other people have evacuated safely.However, the warships docked in the port did not act. It seems that the submarine should be safe and sound, and they have not attracted their attention.Although Ge Ning and the others caused a lot of commotion, no matter who they were, they would have expected that they were Chinese, and a death boat was heard in the port.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven..." Before Ge Ning could count to ten, a ball of flames exploded in the port.Immediately after the explosion came, it was deafening.The ground could feel the violent shaking, and under the light of the fire, the dumbfounded expressions of the Japanese soldiers not far away were clearly seen.

Boom, boom, explosions followed one after another. Even if you were far outside the port area, you could still smell the pungent smell of the explosion and hear the wailing mixed in the wind.

Many machines were blown up, and many ships and warships docked at the port were broken into several pieces by the sound of explosions and flames, and pieces of iron and wood flew randomly, and quickly sank into the water in the raging fire.The mushroom clouds produced by the explosions illuminated the entire night sky, making the port of Yokosuka look like daytime.

boom! ! !Following the detonation of the mines in the ammunition depot, the whole earth seemed to experience a magnitude [-] earthquake. The explosion caused a continuous reaction, and the entire ammunition depot exploded violently in a very short period of time, as if a small nuclear bomb had been dropped here.The shells and ammunition splashed in the explosion exploded while still in the sky, and flew into the sky to explode under the shock wave.Some exploded just as they hit the ground.

Just like a grand fireworks show during the Spring Festival, this is the power of this fireworks explosion, and its strength is frightening.This is not a fireworks for people to watch, this is a shooting star of the end of death.

The shells exploded from the ammunition depot not only ignited fireworks throughout Yokosuka, but the shock waves generated by the explosion quickly destroyed many construction factories within a few kilometers.The fire generated by the explosion burned countless materials, and the raging fire spread rapidly, and with the help of the explosion, it expanded rapidly.

Such an explosion, even Ge Ning who put down the bomb himself, never expected such a terrifying power.Under the destruction of this explosion, the whole of Yokosuka may become ruins, and it may be difficult to recover in a few years.

Li and the others who were waiting in the port stood on the deck of the submarine, watching the violent explosion, speechless for a long time.The flames reflected on everyone's faces, and few people showed excited expressions.An unspeakable taste and expression appeared on everyone's face.

"Captain, withdraw, Ge Ning and the others will not come back!"

In addition to Ge Ning's team of five who did not come back on time, there were three other teams, a total of 17 people who did not come back on time to report.The explosion had already begun, and if they hadn't entered the water at this moment, they might not have been spared.

"Enter the submerged state to avoid being discovered by the reinforcements. Raise the periscope and pay close attention to the nearby sea surface.

An hour later... retreat! "

Although Li Ye really wanted to stay, even though Li couldn't bear to leave behind more than a dozen comrades whose lives and deaths were unknown.But as the captain's reason and responsibility told him, he couldn't put the rest of the boat in danger for them.

"Sir, let us stay here, I believe Brother Ge and the others will be fine!"

"Yes, Captain, let us stay!"

"Captain, if we haven't come back after an hour, you can go back! We stay in Japan and find a way to return home!"

"That's right, Major. The commander often says that we must live and die together with our comrades-in-arms. Please, even if Brother Ge and the others cannot be found, we can definitely report back to China!"

Ge Ning is a cheerful person, and he has come up step by step from the bottom.Therefore, he is very popular, not only in the First Army, but even in the Guard Army, he is also very popular with ordinary soldiers.Now that the time has come and Ge Ning has not returned, many soldiers have expressed concern.

Li thought for a while, and finally agreed, "Only five people are allowed to go! We will leave as soon as the time is up, and we will not wait any longer!"

A large group of soldiers quickly discussed, and quickly selected five people to change their clothes and swim to the port.At this time, the explosion was still going on, and the raging fire was burning violently.The sea water near the sunken ship seemed to be boiling. The closer it was to the sea of ​​flames, the hotter it would be, and the temperature would get higher.But no one flinched, the five of them were like dragons in the sea, quickly diving up and down the sea.

At the same time, three ports including Wugang, Nagasaki, and Kobe also experienced explosions of varying degrees at the same time.Although the intensity of the explosions in those three ports was not as terrifying as that of Yokosuka, the battleship Fuso under construction in Kure Port, the famous battleship under construction in Kobe Port, and the Yamashiro battleship under construction in Yokosuka Port are all facing the fate of dying.Before all the work was completed, the hull was severely damaged by the violent explosion of multiple mines, and it slowly sank into the water.

In addition, the water ghost team in Nagasaki Port discovered the Kongo-type battleship Kirishima docked in the port in the evening.The Kirishima is the last ship of the four King Kong-type battleships, and it is the same type of battleship as the place-name battleship that was bombed and sunk in Kobe Port.

The captain who carried out the Nagasaki port mission was Zhu Bing, the former captain of the Sea Snake Commando, and the captain also had more than a dozen selected soldiers of the Sea Snake Commando.The Sea Snake Commando is proficient in water, and made a lot of contributions in the last battle with the Beiyang Navy.During the naval battle on Snake Island in Beiyang, the Sea Snake Commando captured the Beiyang cruiser, which greatly increased the strength of the First Fleet of the Navy. The Sea Snake Commando was also personally commended and rewarded by Hua Fei, and many of them made meritorious service and honors.

Since that time, Zhu Bing and others have wondered how to capture the enemy's warships.

Interesting, not only carried out many theoretical studies, but also brought the Sea Serpent assault exercise.You said that if you show him a brand new battleship that is about to be completed and parked in the port, can he remain indifferent?

Zhu Bing immediately changed the battle plan and personally led more than a dozen Sea Snake commandos to the battleship Kirishima in advance, and handed over the task of destroying and attacking Nagasaki Port to the deputy captain.

Zhu Bing was overjoyed that most of the parts of the entire battleship Kirishima had been installed. Except for some internal circuits and communication lines and the interior decoration of each cabin, most of the themed equipment, such as main guns, radio stations, etc. , the host combustion boiler, etc. are all installed.And it may be a trial run of the main engine, and the power cabin has a lot of coal stored.Although not many, Zhu Bing estimated that he should be able to drive back to Shanghai Port at high speed. After all, Nagasaki is not far from Shanghai. (Note, in history, the King Kong-class Diwu Island and its name were both completed on 915th, 9. In terms of time, it is not outrageous.)

Zhu Bing quickly sent out a signal, and more than ten people came from the submarine to support them, and the navigator of the submarine also followed.Because Nagasaki Port is close to the main battle zone, although it is already late at night, there are still some warships coming in and out.There are more than a dozen warships at the pier to replenish weapons, ammunition and fuel.

The deputy captain in charge of the sabotage task was not polite. The original plan to go ashore and blow up some mechanical equipment was temporarily cancelled.Most of the water ghosts quietly sneaked under the warships, and after placing the mines, they retreated quietly.

Just as these water ghosts were disappearing under the water, the special forces members on the Kirishima also showed their sharp blades, displaying their special skills of close-quarters assassination.Many soldiers who were on guard duty on the ship went to see their Emperor before they understood what was going on.

Due to the change of mission in Nagasaki, the originally scheduled time of 01:30 in the evening was brought forward to midnight.At this time, the port was a little more relaxed, and some warships that had refueled also docked at the port for a while.Those sailors who have been on the voyage for a long time are either sleeping soundly, or drinking and having fun on the shore.When the next morning, they replenished their vegetables, food and fresh water, they would sail again to the East China Sea to escort their merchant fleet.

Boom boom boom!So when the explosion sounded and the entire Nagasaki Port fell into complete chaos, everyone was either at a loss or panicked to fight the fire.As for the Kirishima, which quietly lifted the anchor and started its engine, most people saw it and thought it was the Kirishima leaving the port to avoid the attack. Who would know that the bridge control room of the Kirishima bridge at this time was completely neutral** people.

"Report, all armed soldiers on board were killed. We have searched every hidden location on board. There are 51 workers on board, and they are all detained together!"

"Very good!" Zhu Bing shouted excitedly, pointing at the dark sea ahead, "Full speed ahead, brothers, let's take this big guy home together!"

"Captain, should we bring all these workers back? If so, our supplies and water sources will be in short supply!" Someone reminded in time.

Although the battleship Kirishima unexpectedly had a lot of coal energy, food and fresh water became a problem.Fortunately, the commandos said, after all, enough food and fresh water were prepared on the submarine.But with the addition of these 51 workers, the supplies for the submarine are obviously not enough.

"Then what can we do? Kill them? Or let them go? We are soldiers, but not executioners! If we let them go, the Japanese army in the port will definitely send warships to pursue them! Cannons? You will know, there are no cannonballs on this ship yet!"

"Take them back. I think these workers are useful to the commander. As for food and water, can't you save some? If all goes well, we can go home in the evening. What kind of suffering is this?"

The battleship Kirishima with a displacement of more than 6000 tons slowly accelerated and left the port. The WS-[-] submarine also quickly sank into the water and followed closely behind the Kirishima.The explosion in Nagasaki Port immediately attracted the attention of warships in the nearby waters, and they rushed to support them.Seeing the Kirishima sailing out of the port, he also mistook it for avoiding an attack in the port.They passed by in a hurry without even sending a signal. Who would have thought that the Kirishima at this time had already become a prisoner of the Sea Serpent Commando!

Leaving the range of firelight at Nagasaki Port, under Zhu Bing's order, WS-102 quickly approached, divided more than half of the special forces merchant ships, and a large amount of supplies were also transported onto the ship.It is much more comfortable to stay on a spacious battleship than to be cramped in a cramped and stuffy submarine.

The transfer of materials and personnel was quickly completed within an hour. During this period, several destroyers and gunboats hurried past and saw the battleship Kirishima outside the port.Cautiously, several destroyers also issued signal light inquiries, and the special forces members who had long known the pattern of the Japanese Navy's signal light responded easily without arousing any suspicion.

After the personnel and materials were prepared, Zhu Bing quickly ordered to avoid the main channel and several minefields, sail almost in a straight line, and drive to Shanghai Port at high speed with full power. With a distance of 460 nautical miles, at the fastest speed of the Kirishima ship, it only takes less than [-] hours to reach Shanghai Port.

If all goes well, they will be able to return to Shanghai in the morning and evening.So even if we take the 51 workers with us and starve them for more than ten hours without giving them food or drink, no one will die.As long as the special forces team members spare some food and water, they can still deal with one or two meals for them.After all, according to the original plan, it would take three or four days for the submarine to return to Shanghai!

An hour later, inside the WS-[-] submarine, the captain, Lu Zheng, was lying on the periscope, staring at the sea surface in the port and observing carefully.The second watch officer reminded, "Captain, the time is up, are you setting sail as planned?"

Lu Zheng raised his head, looked at Li heavily and shook his head slightly.Lee frowned and walked over to the sonar man, patting him on the shoulder.The sonar operator took off his earphones, looked up and whispered, "Three destroyers and a cruiser are coming from the outer waters, and they will arrive in about 10 minutes!"

Li looked at his watch and said, "There are still 10 minutes, your watch is fast!"

Watch fast?The second officer was slightly stunned, and before he could react, he leaned over and checked the captain's time, right to the minute.He was about to speak, but saw Lu Zheng winking at him, and he reacted quickly.

"I brought you here, but there is no way to bring you home safely?"

Li Xin kept asking himself, his emotions swayed from side to side on the balance of personal and responsibility, and he couldn't tell which weight was more important to each other.

178 Chrysanthemum Fall

The 10 minutes obviously passed very slowly. After half an hour in the hands of the second watch officer and others, Li had no choice but to give the order to return.

Although the Li team has achieved impressive results, the naval ammunition depot in Yokosuka port was bombed, and nearly half of the infrastructure in the port area was destroyed. The battleship Yamashiro and other warships and merchant ships under construction in the port sank one after another, greatly blocking the port navigation.

However, compared with other groups, Li's group also suffered the greatest loss.A total of more than a dozen people were confirmed dead, including Ge Ning and more than 20 people who rushed to support afterward, but their whereabouts are unknown.

The next day, the sky was gloomy.The home of Prime Minister Shigenobu Oshige was already full of noise.Dai Shigenobu hurried out of his home in disheveled clothes and headed straight for the Prime Minister's Office.If the news just received is true, it would be a huge disaster for Japan.
