Lu Yunlong and his 10 ghost submarines were stuck between the Dongsha Islands and the Zhongsha Islands, and they all exposed the submarine's control towers on the sea surface to ensure that the generators could charge the batteries, and at the same time ensure that the air in the boats was naturally fresh, and then they were ready to open their nets.

The top of the Ghost Submarine's control tower is just over 4 meters high, and you can't see it in the middle of a vast ocean. Besides, this sea area is full of islands, and you can't tell whether it's an island or a submarine if you don't move your submarine. By the time you can tell, the torpedo may already be on the body.

"Send a message to the First Fleet." Lu Yunlong found that the enemy's fleet was indeed coming towards Luzon Island, so he no longer hesitated: "The enemy's fleet is 120 nautical miles away from the Dongsha Islands, and it is expected to arrive in the waters of the Dongsha Islands at about 11 o'clock in the evening. Our department is preparing for a covert raid and needs a certain amount of surface support. ”

Because the distance was too far, Lu Yunlong's radar couldn't tell whether it was a battleship or a transport fleet. For the sake of prudence, he called for reinforcements from the surface fleet, and at the same time said hello to the First Fleet.

"Ghosts 02, 03, and 04 are coming closer to me." As time passed, the course of the fleet in the northwest direction became clearer and clearer, and Lu Yunlong finally gave the order: "The enemy's fleet is heading close to the west side of the Dongsha Islands, and with me as the benchmark, it will open a wild goose formation to the west, with a distance of 15 nautical miles, to ensure that they cooperate with each other." ”

At 10:30 p.m. on January 1, 1942, Lu Yunlong issued an order to prepare for battle: "The situation has been clearly investigated, the enemy has 2 destroyers, 24 transport ships, a speed of 13 knots, and a distance of 50 nautical miles. ”

"I retreated five nautical miles to the south to give way to the enemy ships in the frontal channel. 1 torpedo ready, ready to strike below the waterline on the right side of the enemy. ”

At around 11:45 p.m., the first destroyer slowly entered the northeast of Lu Yunlong Ghost 001, in the sea area between 001 and the Dongsha Islands, about 18 nautical miles.

There are no fingers on the sea, and only the fleets of little devils have lights. The 32nd Brigade of Independent Armored Vehicles, the captain of the brigade, Kiyosaku Kawamura, was the commander this time.

Regarding this emergency reinforcement of Luzon, Lieutenant General Takashi Sakai did not explain it clearly to the following. The main reason is that the reinforcements this time are too weak and a little unavailable, so he is worried that it will shake his morale.

Before setting out for the expedition, Lieutenant General Takashi Sakai did not introduce the enemy's situation, nor did he explain that Luzon had changed, but carried out some agitation. Here's what his mobilization looks like:

"Warriors of the Empire, the situation of the war in the Nanyang Islands has changed, and the royal paradise of the Empire has expanded a lot, and a group of loyal and brave men of His Majesty the Emperor are needed to immediately reinforce the past and maintain law and order in the new land. You are the warriors of the Emperor, and you are the glory of the Empire. The military luck is long, and the emperor is on board. ”

Because the British resisted for a few days, from the Governor Sir Yang Muqi down, on December 25, 1941, "Black Christmas" unconditionally surrendered to the Japanese army and became a prisoner of war.

Remember: at the same time that the main British forces chose to surrender, 15 high-ranking British officers fled with British intelligence officers.

Of course, the beautification of history is necessary, so it is said in another way: "I chose to follow the Chinese Vice Admiral Chen Ce, the highest representative of China in Hong Kong at that time, to break out of Hong Kong by speedboat." ”

The army of the "great" British Empire was probably also the most shameless unit during World War II.

Throughout World War II, he was in retreat and on the run. No, according to their own explanation: "We didn't run away, we just changed the direction of the attack." ”

Dunkirk "Victorious Escape", Myanmar "Victorious Escape". Hong Kong can't do it, it's all the sea, and you can't escape, so you choose to surrender.

The "big" Imperial Japanese Army occupied Hong Kong almost effortlessly, and also made the little Japanese devils see through the hypocrisy and weakness of the British devils, and set the tone for the subsequent battle of Indochina. In those dense forests, the British devils are even more unified.

In any case, the territory has expanded, and the maintenance of law and order has become a big problem.

This chariot brigade of Kiyosaku Kawamura had just been formed in Kobe, and it had only been three days since it arrived in Hong Kong. From top to bottom, they don't know what the hell is going on at the front and where the enemy is.

Kiyosaku Kawamura is on top of the destroyer's command tower at the front, hoping to see the destination as much as possible, that is, a good place for his future achievements. As everyone knows, his stinky feet have stepped into the gates of hell.

"Attention boats: immediately dive to periscope depth. Attention boats: Dive immediately to periscope depth. Boats 03 and 04, one torpedo attacked the destroyer at the rear, and boat No. 02 attacked the destroyer at the front with me. ”

Lu Yunlong held the periscope and rotated to observe, while giving the attack order: "Remember, you must bite until you sink it." The other boats attacked the middle flotilla, and a torpedo was fired. ”

Reaching out and not seeing five fingers, a torpedo was fired from 18 kilometers away, and every qiē was calm and unremarkable, only the sound of the waves of the sea.

There are dangers in the calm, and death traps in the waves.

This is the combat rhythm of submarines, this is where the power of submarines lies.

The torpedo improved by Bai Shujie and the expert group reached a speed of 55 knots, that is, 55 knots. At a distance of 18 nautical miles, the torpedo needs to sail for 20 minutes, and the advance is 13 knots, which is already included.

Three minutes later, the boats were ready again, and Lu Yunlong gave the order to fire the second torpedo.

The first blast of fire appeared at the back of the enemy convoy, indicating that one of the destroyers at the back had been shot. The second fire appeared in the middle of the fleet, and it was a succession of fires.

After another three minutes, one of the destroyers at the front finally exploded one after another, and Lu Yunlong knew that the first two torpedoes on his side had all failed, but fortunately the second torpedo was shot out in time.

The book explains that a destroyer is a simple thin-skinned coffin in the middle of the sea, not to mention a torpedo, and a shell will be finished if it hits the vital point directly.

As soon as Lu Yunlong saw that the enemy's frigate had been reimbursed, he immediately grabbed the microphone and shouted: "All boats immediately float up, approach the enemy's fleet, and use the naval guns to kill the little devils who escaped." ”

At around three o'clock in the morning on January 2, 1942, Lu Yunlong's 10 ghost submarines finally slowly approached the scene of the explosion. Two destroyers have completely disappeared, and there are still 17 search and transport ships circling in place on the sea.

Lu Yunlong: "Keep a distance of 500 meters from each boat, turn on the searchlight, and destroy the remaining enemy. ”

Tom-huh-Suddenly there was a cannon fire on the opposite side, and the cannonball stuck to the No. 001 boat that landed on Yunlong and flew over.

Lu Yunlong was taken aback, and suddenly became angry: "Suppress the artillery fire and kill this ship." ”

It turned out that the transport ship carrying 24 armored vehicles was just at the front of the fleet, and after the first destroyer sank, the fleet was also devastated, and the transport ship carrying the infantry brigade behind was hit by bullets one after another and caught fire, and seven ships sank one after another.

As luck would have it, the 2 transport ships transporting 24 armored vehicles were unscathed because of their position in the front. There happened to be a squad of little devils on this ship who were with the ship to protect the chariots, and now when they saw a large group of submarines approaching, they actually remembered to use the chariot guns to return fire.

It's a pity that on the roof of the little devil's armored car, it is nothing more than a 23mm short-barreled gun, and the hit rate is not high in the first place. Besides, even if it's a sharpshooter on land, you can't come to the ship. Because the sea surface is undulating, naval gunners who have not been specially trained can only be able to hit.

However, when Lu Yunlong saw that the enemy not only did not surrender, but also delusionally wanted to use chariot guns against his submarine, wouldn't he be furious?

Deck gun of the Ghost submarine with a caliber of 140mm and a caliber of 50 times and a firing range of 36 km. Because it was only 800 meters away from the enemy, the four gunners were in a hurry, and directly flattened the cannon, almost hitting the surface of the water to shoot a shell.

In fact, at this time, you should use a 30mm high-level dual-purpose gun, or two heavy machine guns to fire, but Lu Yunlong, the deputy commander of the fleet, is only 25 years old, and it is the time when he is young and vigorous.

In addition, he is usually spoiled by Bai Shujie again, and he has always been above the top. Now that he was beaten by the little devil, he was scared into a cold sweat, and Lu Yunlong felt that he had to teach the little devil who didn't know whether he was alive or dead to relieve his anger, so he gave the order to use the deck heavy artillery.

That's what it means to take off your pants and fart.

As a result, a cannonball was fired out, and the huge kinetic energy of the projectile directly punched a big hole in the hull, and the projectile had already flown out through the transport ship and fell into the sea before exploding.

However, although this cannon did not sink the enemy's transport ship, it had a great deterrent effect. 10 submarines approached, that is, 10 140mm heavy guns, and everywhere they were put under huge pressure, so that the surviving little devils completely lost the confidence to resist.

Little devils also fly a white flag? , lieutenant generals and commanders are able to surrender, and ordinary soldiers are not steel and iron, and it is normal to surrender.

In addition, the Supreme Commander had sunk into the sea, so after the remaining little devils saw the power of the cannons, they all hung up the white flags.

A short sneak attack naval battle that lasts 2 hours. 17 transport ships were captured (9 were torpedoed and the rudder was damaged, or the propeller was damaged and lost power), 24 combat vehicles, more than 430 little devil soldiers, and 213 ship crews.

Fortunately, Lu Yunlong had the foresight to send a telegram to the First Fleet in advance requesting surface reinforcements, and the first to rush over were the Daming 301, 302, 303, and 304 Somers-class destroyers.

As for how the First Fleet would get the loot back, Lu Yunlong didn't bother to ask. It's best not to expose submarines too much, the nature of their mission determines that they will always be heroes in the dark. After a goodbye, the 10 ghost submarines disappeared into the vast expanse.

When the battle broke out on Lu Yunlong's side, the same scene was staged at the same time 450 kilometers to the northeast, and it also evolved into a thrilling naval fleet artillery battle.

It turned out that after the 10 ghost capital ships of the First Submarine Fleet left, there were 8 British P-class submarines and 3 I-171 Haida A-type submarines left.

In the next two years, 1 Type 7 verification ship (the historical Yi 176) newly produced by Little Devil was captured, and 2 Haida Type B submarines were salvaged.

Bai Shujie was not interested in the little devil's submarines, so he carried out a comprehensive transformation of the 6 I-type submarines. It is required to meet uniform standards, so as not to cooperate effectively with each other.

The length of the boat is 105.5 meters, the total width is 8.25 meters, the draft is 4.6 meters, the water displacement is 1,759 tons, and the underwater displacement is 2,817 tons.

1 18,500 hp diesel unit, 1 7,200 hp brushless motor, maximum speed 27.5 knots on the surface and 14 knots underwater (faster than the ghost submarine).

The bow is equipped with 6 533mm torpedo tubes and 13 spare torpedoes; 1 140mm deck gun, 2 30mm high-level dual-purpose guns.

After the battle to seize Luzon began, 6 White Sharks followed the Second Fleet to Apari and destroyed the 2 destroyers on the Babuyan Islands in the north, and the 6 White Sharks ambushed the Babuyan Islands to protect the northern waters of Luzon.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
