The cannon roared and gunfire continued on the ground, and the Chinese plane flying from the north did not pursue the fleeing Japanese, it seemed to want to cover the comrades who were slowly falling with parachutes, so they cruised back and forth in the Japanese trenches, and the Makqin machine gun in the back seat spat wildly, constantly strafing the Japanese soldiers in the trenches, in order to create a chance for the rescue of their own infantry.

From the first time he saw the machine gun in the back seat of a Chinese plane, he germinated the idea of aircraft ground combat, and proposed to conduct experiments in this regard immediately in China. I don't want to because of those lazy old men, before their own experiments began, the Chinese staged a live version.

The Chinese plane in the air was crazy and ignored the bullets on the ground to lower and strafe, which caused the fuselage to be shot many times, but the strange thing is that the plane did not catch fire and crashed without damage. Colonel Bai Laile, who was watching the battle in the open field, suddenly thought of something, and he shouted, "Oh, God! Gentlemen, can't you take pictures of these things? I am willing to buy these pictures for ten shillings each! ”

The wonderful air battle is the focus of reporters' attention, but also the focus of photography, just from those few meteor-like impacts, photographers frequently press the button to detonate magnesium powder, this historic scene will be recorded forever. Now the plane flying solo in the sky does not attract their attention, but since Bai Laile is willing to pay for it, they will naturally not be stingy with film.

Because of the need to keep the existing weapon capabilities secret, the shooting coordinator was not installed on the aircraft on the battlefield of Zhili, after all, there are many foreigners in Beijing and Tianjin. And the volunteer pilots from the United States are arranged here, and these people are not part of the Baath Army Air Force system. Once the technology is leaked, the consequences will be unpredictable. Can be front-firing machine guns although there are none. The engine and fuselage of the aircraft are the original active cargo of the Air Force, which is why the previous air ramming tactics can be carried out again and again. In addition to the sturdy fuselage, considering the extremely low firing efficiency of the rear-seat machine gun, the entire cockpit of the aircraft is equipped with bulletproof steel plates, and the fuel tanks are also reinforced, which allows the aircraft to shuttle back and forth in the rain of bullets like an immortal bird.

The planes in the sky attracted the fire of the Japanese front, and the rear artillery of the Japanese army was suppressed by 150 howitzers, and the infantry of the Fuxing Army who broke through the middle of the trenches of the two armies rescued the pilot very smoothly.

The hero is saved. But the infantry officer, who knew the value of the pilot, quickly sent him to the health post in the rear trench - it is not known whether the pilot was hit by a bullet or if he landed on the ground and was stained with the blood of others, in short, the pilot was covered in blood.

This was supposed to be the end of the matter, but I didn't want the plane that was ravaging the Japanese army to pull up and then fly low and land in the mud behind the second trench of the Baath Army. Everyone was extremely surprised, and something even more surprising happened: the pilot of the plane in front of him stood up from the cockpit, jumped off the plane and took off the hat on his head, so the man's long golden hair and pretty face were suddenly exposed in front of everyone's eyes, and the infantry leopard who watched this scene intently was distracted. Only then did I find out that the plane was flying a foreigner, a foreign woman, and a very... of foreign women.

And at this time, Catherine, who had no time to pay attention to the countless male eyes on the battlefield. Miss Stimson jumped off the plane and ran to the health center. The pilot who hit the Japanese plane in front was her lover: Lieutenant Hayashi Fuyuan. Looking at the appearance of the foreign woman running in a hurry in the binoculars, Major General Tao Dayong, who had already received the report from his subordinates, sighed rarely, "This foreign woman is also affectionate and righteous." ”

This scene on the battlefield of Yangcun added a bit of romance to the war. When this happened turned into lead and was published on the front page of the declaration, someone from the Zhoushan East Sea Fleet read the article on the outside of the special issue. As soon as he threw the newspaper, he grabbed a few handfuls of the foreign woman's chest beside him, and commanded in English with a London accent as he touched it. "Quick! One more old man's cart. ”

The old man's cart is an inherent move name, and people who are not familiar with it don't know that this is the case at all, let alone express it in English. Just when the woman was still thinking stupidly, the man directly pushed it down, ripped off the fat white thighs unique to Caucasian women, and pumped it up like a piledriver.

The room was originally calm, but who would have expected that suddenly it would start to rain again, and Captain Chen Shaokuan, the liaison officer of the Navy Command who was standing outside with a sweaty face, was extremely embarrassed, especially the tone of the mixed male and female voices in the inner room was getting higher and higher, and the woman was fucked with 'oh, yes! fuck-me...' and other shouts made Chen Shao's face red, but fortunately, this time the fight was particularly short, and in less than ten minutes, a Caucasian woman mixed with perfume and the unique smell of male and female liquids staggered out with her bag.

"It's Houfu, right? Is there something going on at the command? The room remembered the voice of Colonel Lan Jianshu, the captain of the Navy Yingrui. The human physique is really strange, the twenty-four-year-old Chen Shaokuan may not be able to conquer the Caucasian women in bed, but the sixty-year-old Colonel Lan Jianshu often discards their armor and falls into the water.

"Yes, sir. The command, Vice Admiral Moffett, informed the captains of the cruisers to meet in two hours. Although the naval system has been changed from the British system to the American system, the rules are still strict, and even if Chen Shaokuan has just heard of a scandal, he is extremely strict.

Colonel Lan Jianshu seemed to be getting dressed, and when he heard that the headquarters had notified him of a meeting, the movements in his hands suddenly stopped, and he said, "Does Commander Yang want us to attack the Japanese?" ”

"I don't know, sir." Chen Shaokuan replied. "The command just ordered a meeting, and did not ......"

Chen Shaokuan was still talking, and Colonel Lan Jianshu, who was quickly dressed, came out, although he fired two shots in a row, he was still in good spirits, even if his hair was slightly gray and his stomach was a little big, he was still powerful in the American navy uniform.

"After almost a year of rest, it's time for war." Colonel Lan Jianshu said nonchalantly. He didn't care about Chen Shaokuan's surprised gaze at all, he gambled on the reputation of the king that no one in the navy didn't know, but what could this be? The General Assembly in Beijing appointed him as the captain of the Yingrui ship, not on the basis of age and seniority.

"Sir, the order has been served. I'll go back first. Chen Shaokuan saluted.

"Go ahead. I'll be there! Colonel Lan Jianshu returned the salute.

An hour and a half later, officers gathered at the Zhoushan Navy Headquarters. the old ships of the cruiser fleet, Haichou and Haichen, and the new ships Zhaohe and Yingrui; The captains of the destroyer fleet Yuzhang, Jiankang, and Tong'an all arrived. In addition to the Feihong light cruiser, Whale Wave, and Dragon Turbulent destroyer in Shanghai, the entire cruiser fleet is complete. Seeing that Cheng Biguang, commander of the cruiser fleet, Chen Ce, commander of the submarine fleet, and deputy commander Moffett had not yet arrived, Lan Jianshu, who entered the conference room, and Liu Guanxiong, captain of the Haiqiao ship, sat together.

Although the conference room of the headquarters was spacious in the summer, the special smell of male and female love on Lan Jianshu still gave Liu Guanxiong a sniff, and after lighting a cigarette for him, Liu Guanxiong smiled and said, "Brother Ji Bei, how many shots have you done?" ”

"Time is in a hurry, and I only did two shots." Lan Jianshu said very calmly. "Caucasian women, that place is loose. It's not good to do. ”

"Brother Bei is still looking for a Caucasian woman that season!" Liu Guanxiong said with a smile. "I don't think wildflowers are as fragrant as domestic flowers."

"There is going to be a war soon, maybe another naval battle in the Yellow Sea. If you don't play all the women you can play with before you die, you won't be willing to sleep at the bottom of the sea. Lan Jianshu snuffed out the cigarette after taking a puff, he had never had a good impression of tobacco and alcohol. didn't want to talk about women, he said very strangely: "Hey, Ziying, what did you say to Commander Yang, why did you ......?"

Since the Haitian ship accident, Liu Guanxiong has Yuan Shikai as a guarantor. But he has been sitting on the cold bench in the Admiralty, and the new dynasty was founded, and it is said that the prime minister is also very disgusted with his old affairs, but he does not want to become the captain of the Hai Chip in less than three years. It's okay if Lan Jianshu doesn't mention it. Liu Guanxiong was very happy at the mention of him, and he said: "Hehe, the imperial court doesn't care about any old things. Only with kung fu in hand, it is a person who can get ahead. ”

He said. While glancing at the captain of the Haichen sitting in front of him, Lin Baoyi, who was awarded the medal for his position, was very disdainful. After the Battle of the East China Sea. Although the imperial court issued a strict order to block the news, Liu Guanxiong, who was also from Fuzhou, knew that Lin Baoyi had avoided the battle during the night battle.

Although they are both horsetails, there are still contradictions between them. Liu Guanxiong's voice reached Lin Baoyi's ears, and he immediately glared angrily, but fortunately, there was a 'salute' outside the house, and it turned out to be Vice Admiral Moffitt, deputy commander of the navy, Rear Admiral Cheng Biguang, commander of the cruiser, and Colonel Chen Ce, commander of the submarine force. When the three of them stepped into the conference room, the captains all stood up, and under the rather stern expressions, everyone looked at the three commanders in unison.

After the first battle in the East China Sea, Vice Admiral Moffitt's authority in the navy was no longer offended, but Cheng Biguang, who was not only not dead in the catastrophe, but also did not lose half of his hair, failed to convince all the captains, everyone just sighed at his good luck, as for Chen Ce, the commander of the submarine fleet that appeared out of nowhere, he could not enter everyone's eyes at all. Submarines are just torpedo boats that can dive, and the fact that the East China Sea can ambush the Japanese Navy is nothing more than the credit of the surface ships inviting you into the urn, and in addition, they were promoted to colonel at the age of 21, do you really think that the navy is an army?

Expectation, disdain, flattery, silence, or everything, several kinds of eyes shot out of the eyes of the captains present, and fell only on the three commanders.

Vice Admiral Moffitt is an American, and his term of office in the Chinese Navy is only 10 years, and whether or not he will renew the contract after 10 years depends on the relationship between China and the United States and Beijing's attitude. After ordering the captains to sit down, he took the order from the adjutant and said: "Gentlemen, the General Staff in Beijing has issued an order that the cruiser fleet will pull anchor and leave port at eight o'clock this evening, and the target of this trip is the Japanese supply ships along the Korean coast......"

As soon as Vice Admiral Moffett's order began, everyone was startled, and the General Staff was actually arranging a sabotage battle, which was the same as what the German East Asian Fleet was doing now. But although it was a sabotage, there was not a single big ship in the fleet, not even an eight-inch gun, and it was really going to North Korea, that is, to die. In particular, the speed of the fleet is too slow, Haichou and Haichen are old ships, although they were overhauled in Qingdao dockyard last year, but the maximum speed is 2.5 knots; Although Ying Rui and Zhaohe are new ships, the maximum speed is 22 knots, while the Japanese Navy's newly built King Kong dreadnought can run at a speed of 27 knots.

After reading the order, Lieutenant General Moffitt looked at everyone's surprised expressions, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Gentlemen, is there any problem?" ”

"Sir, the destroyer's endurance is insufficient, and even if it is filled with coal, it will not be able to fight again when it reaches the Bohai Sea." Liu Guanxiong, captain of the sea chip, asked. "Now it is reported that the state has taken back the port of Qingdao. Was it a sabotage attack on Japan based on the port of Qingdao this time? ”

Excluding Liu Guanxiong's old things, Moffitt still admires this officer. Seeing that he explained the purpose of the trip thoroughly, Lieutenant General Moffitt said with a smile: "The potential implication of Beijing's order is that there is a plan to use Qingdao as a base to carry out a sabotage attack on the Japanese. But Qingdao is not our primary target, and now that the Japanese Navy is guarding the waters off Qingdao, I don't think we can get in without luring them away. Gentlemen, a decisive battle is soon coming up on the Naoli side, and if we can attack the Japanese merchant ships transporting military supplies, it will play a crucial role in the campaign. In addition, this time we are not alone, the submarine force will also go north with us, and I think the Japanese heard that there are submarines. You will definitely run away from it. ”

Hearing that Qingdao is the support, and the submarine will also go north with it, the generals who were originally a little worried began to rest assured, and then Cheng Biguang explained a few more words, and the meeting was dispersed.

As soon as the captains left, the ships parked in the military harbor began to prepare for the voyage. On the fleet's flagship Zhaohe, the midshipman Chen Kejun, who listened to the order conveyed by the officer on duty, was startled, and he was so busy that he pretended to have something to do and rushed to other cabins.

"Oh no, the warship is about to pull anchor and leave the port!" looked at Li Jubiao and Zeng Jitang, who were also interning on the ship. Chen Kejun's face was not. Although the few people had not discussed any countermeasures before, the warship suddenly left the port, which made him very uneasy.

"Did you say where to go?" Zeng Jitang asked. "It's not going to be a war with the Japanese, is it?"

"What about the fighting?" Chen Kejun felt the excitement in Zeng Jitang's words, and he was very unhappy. "Only this time the revival party lost. Only in China can there be hope for a democratic republic! If they win, China will only be forever trapped in an authoritarian dictatorship! Mr. Chungsan once said: The foundation of the country lies in the people! The strength of the country if not the strength of the people. That would only benefit the dictator. History also tells us that once Yang Jingcheng gains power, the people will be placed in a place of no return......"

After the founding of the Chinese Revolutionary Party. Under the efforts of Liao Zhongkai, Hu Hanmin and others, party members have strengthened ideological and cultural construction. The existing party members have been educated in revolutionary ideology, and among these graduates of the Huangpu Sailor School, Chen Kejun is the best student who has learned the Three People's Principles, and there is no one.

Chen Kejun almost forgot about his business because of his preaching, and when the two sailors passed outside the cabin, he stopped reciting Mr. Zhongshan's remarks, and said, "We want to spread the news!" ”

"It's hard to pass it on, and besides, you have to pull the anchor today, what's the use of passing it out?" Li Jubiao, who does not like to talk, said that compared with Chen Kejun, an ideological activist, he has always been a man of action, and he only does things that are beneficial to the revolution.

Li Jubiao's words made Chen Kejun and Zeng Jitang silent, the revival of the anti-party control of the army is very strict, even they, the naval interns who have just graduated, are often investigated and interrogated, fortunately, they are all Cantonese, and the group between classmates makes the political investigators unable to ask anything.

"Then kill Moffitt!" Chen Kejun said after a moment of silence. "The warship must have a mission when it sails, and it has not sailed for more than half a year, and now it has suddenly set sail, and the task must be important. If the commander of the fleet is killed at this time, the whole army will be in chaos. Only in this way can the whole plan be broken! ”

Everyone was thinking of a way, but Chen Kejun thought of this way. Zeng Jitang exclaimed: "Moffitt is a native of the United States, he at least helped us train the navy, and he ...... during the naval battle in the East China Sea."

"What about the people of the United States?" Chen Kejun said. "As long as anyone dares to help the abuse, then they should be killed! And it's better to kill the people of the United States, among the great powers, Germany and the United States supported Yang Reyi and killed Moffett to see how he explained to his master of the United States. ”

Chen Kejunyue said that there is a reason, in the propaganda of the revolutionary party, Yang Jingcheng is a lackey of the rice people, in order to curry favor with the rice people, he did not hesitate to put patriots in prison, did not hesitate to dissolve the mining department, and did not hesitate to give the oil mines in Shaanxi and Henan to outsiders. And the reason why China and Japan went to war this time was entirely because he wanted to curry favor with the master of the rice country, and used the countless lives of the Chinese people to please the rice people, which is the essence of this war.

"Alright! I agree, but how do we do that? Li Jubi seemed to be persuaded by Chen Kejun, since he had a goal, it seemed to him that he should naturally think that it was time to implement the plan.

"Ji Tang, where's your gun? It's still there. Chen Kejun asked. Thinking that he could dedicate himself to the revolution, his whole body was full of fire, and he believed that this would be the first shot fired by the naval revolutionaries against the revival and opposition party.

In the afternoon, after the command of the fleet gave the order to sail, a few hours. The officers and men on the shore who were on duty on duty had already boarded the ship and were in their places. After dinner, the farewell lights of the military port lighthouse stand out against the backdrop of night. Four light cruisers and three destroyers, unfed, started their engines and began to leave port. Although there are very few people who know how to send them off. However, the captains of the ships still ordered the crews to line up on the side of the ship and take off their hats in front of the brightly lit dock area.

There are three harbors in Zhoushan Military Port, two of which are submarine harbors, mainly for submarines, and the outer West Shanghai Port is a naval military port, which mainly berths surface ships. Unlike the two cracked military ports inside, the one outside looks like a slightly curled rabbit on the map, with the rabbit body being the military port and the rabbit ears being the passage connecting the outer waterways of the military port. It is worth mentioning that this interface is only a little more than 1.1 kilometer wide, which is very dangerous.

At the forefront were the destroyers Tong'an and Yuzhang, followed by the four light cruisers Yingrui, Zhaohe, Haichou and Haichen, and finally the destroyer Jiankang. Under the guidance of the lights and flags on both sides, the fleet passed the narrow mouth of the rabbit ears in turn, and then turned the rudder to the right and sailed along the waterway of more than 30 kilometers to Fodu Island. Here, the fleet can sail from the north side of Fodu Island and go to sea under the cover of the large and small islands of Zhoushan; You can also go to the south side of Fodu Island and go to sea through the Jiushan Islands. In a word. The dotted Zhoushan Islands can bring the greatest concealment effect to the fleet, making it difficult for the enemy to catch the traces of the fleet's sailing.

Under the starlight, the sea undulates like a thick and huge meadow, aboard the fleet's flagship, the Zhaohe. Looking at the far away coast, Cheng Biguang suddenly asked, "What about those submarines?" Isn't it necessary to wait for them. ”

"Not necessarily!" Vice Admiral Moffett, who was already familiar with the performance of submarines during this time, denied it, and after he finished speaking, he laughed at himself again, "Dear Cheng." Your Prime Minister is a cold-blooded leader who will spare the lives of his soldiers for the sake of victory; He is also a qualified leader. He is always able to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy in the most appropriate place at the least cost. ”

Lieutenant General Moffett said his opinion of Yang Rui. Then he looked at Cheng Biguang, who didn't know why, and said: "Cheng, do you know that the maximum speed of submarines is not much slower than that of our fleet, and their number is amazing!" ”

"Not much slower than the fleet?!" Cheng Biguang was still puzzled, suddenly he thought of the ambush last year, and his whole body seemed to be electrocuted, and he lost his voice: "In other words, last year we led the Japanese warship into the trap, there was no need at all?" ”

"Not really." Vice Admiral Moffett's words comforted Cheng Biguang, who was a little out of order, "At that time, two of the submarines escorting us had a faulty main engine, so it took us so long to lead the Japanese into a trap. I'm not going to say this, but I'm trying to say that at that time there were already dozens of submarines in the submarine force, but these submarines did not escort us, you know, we only had one empty merchant ship in our fleet. ”

The merchant ship loaded with the hydraulic press sank into the sea during the naval battle, but a few months later, Vice Admiral Moffett heard from the Bethlehem Steel Company that the Chinese had installed the hydraulic press at the Nanjing shipyard. As the escort of the whole process, Lieutenant General Moffitt was shocked by the news, both shocked by how the Chinese did it, and shocked by his own ignorance of the entire escort plan. Although he did not want to be concealed, he was a soldier, not to mention that it was his duty to obey orders, and even the General Staff had no obligation to reveal the entire escort plan to him.

Cheng Biguang, who was also surprised how the hydraulic press got to the Nanjing shipyard, was also surprised, but he was not the supreme person in charge of the fleet, and his knowledge was even more limited. After making sure that all those submarines were doing their best at that time, Cheng Biguang asked: "How many submarines do we have, and what is the performance of these submarines?" ”

"Mr. Prime Minister told me that I have about a hundred ships, and they are all very good." Since the implementation of the battle plan began, there was no need to hide the matter of the submarine, so Vice Admiral Moffitt introduced the situation to Cheng Biguang very frankly, "The General Staff is deliberate, they deliberately conceal the number of submarines, deliberately conceal the performance of submarines, and even, if my guess is correct, they also deliberately damaged a batch of submarines in Huludao to make the Japanese land in Tianjin and Qinhuangdao." ”

"Why are they doing this?" Cheng Biguang was electrocuted again, he couldn't imagine so many unbelievable things.

"Cut off the logistical sources of the Japanese army, and then annihilate them." Lieutenant General Moffett drank the coffee from his cup, and then said calmly. "What a devil is the man who came up with this plan!" He sighed, not seeing the hatch gently pushed open and a pistol pointed at him. (To be continued......)
