At the port where the Vladivostok submarine is located, dozens of submarine members are sitting lazily. The captain Sumarokov persuaded him earnestly: "Davasili (comrades), we must go to war immediately, otherwise Vladivostok will be destroyed once
If the Japanese break through, then we will all become prisoners of the Japanese."
A sergeant said: "Major, there is a problem with the oxygen production system of the submarine. Once we dive, the oxygen inside is only enough for one hour. This hour also includes the time we go to sea and return. Even if we risk going to sea, we can use it."
There are less than ten minutes left in the battle. If we are discovered and tracked by an enemy ship, even if we are not sunk by the enemy ship, we will die in the sea due to lack of air. You are using our lives to fight.
gamble!"
"Yes, we are just gambling with our lives!" A voice came from a distance, and then Xu Rui's figure appeared in front of everyone.
"Gather!" Xu Rui yelled. The soldiers looked at each other, but when they saw the colonel uniform Xu Rui was wearing, they quickly gathered together.
Xu Rui said: "I am Xu Rui, Chief of Staff of the Far East Front. I order you to immediately enter the submarine to fight the Japanese ships!"
The soldiers listened to Xu Rui's words but did not move. Some squinted their eyes, some lowered their heads, and some turned their heads aside.
Xu Rui said: "Just when I came, your superior, Commander of the Pacific Fleet, Comrade Kruschenko, brought two gunboats to attack the six Japanese destroyers. He did this just to win the opportunity for the submarine to attack.
time."
After listening to Xu Rui's words, everyone's eyes showed surprise. Obviously, they did not expect that Krushenko would take the lead in going to sea to fight the enemy. These sailors naturally understood that using two small gunboats to deal with six large ships
Destroyer, this is no different from seeking death. Thinking of this, everyone lowered their heads, their faces full of shame.
"What I also want to tell you is that just when I got out of the car, I saw that the battle on the sea had ended. The gunboat where General Kruschenko was on died together with a Japanese destroyer. In that case, I believe
, no one can come back alive."
The sailors' heads dropped lower and lower,
"I look down on you!" Xu Rui said.
"If you were able to attack, then Krushenko wouldn't have to sacrifice himself to buy time. If it weren't for your greed for life and fear of death, many people wouldn't have to die. However, because of your cowardice, incompetence, and cowardice, including Krushenko,
Many outstanding soldiers, including General Shenke, had to die on the battlefield, and you are just a group of executioners!"
Kruschenko was an excellent commander who won the hearts of the military. His death had a great psychological impact on these sailors. Many of them were asking themselves whether they had done something wrong.
Xu Rui added: "The military law of the Soviet Union is very strict. I remember a general who ran away because he was afraid of the enemy. In the end, he was shot together with six other generals. Generals like this, not to mention soldiers, your actions will only have one end.
That means being shot because of cowardice. If you want to survive, you can only use actions to wash away the mistakes you have made."
Xu Rui continued: "Of course, you have another choice, which is to fight like a man and repel the enemy's attack. Although this road is dangerous, there is still hope of survival. Moreover, even if you die,
Your families will also be proud of you, and you will become the heroes who change the situation of the war."
At this point in Xu Rui's words, it became clear that these sailors were either shot for cowardice and delaying the opportunity to fight, or they went to fight. Although fighting was dangerous, there was still hope of living, and even if they died, they were still heroes.
, the family will receive preferential treatment from the country.
The sailors raised their heads one after another. This was a good multiple-choice question and they had already made their choice.
"Comrade Xu Rui, we are willing to go out and repel the Japanese warships!" the soldiers said one after another.
Xu Rui said: "Then what are you waiting for? Get on the ship immediately and go to sea! Fight the Japanese devils hard!"
The sailors performed their duties one after another and boarded the submarine. Seeing this scene, the captain of the submarine Sumarokov couldn't help but be stunned. He talked earnestly for a long time, but none of the sailors listened to him, but he
As soon as Xu Rui took action, he achieved immediate results and everyone obeyed his command. This Xu Rui is really awesome.
"Comrade Sumarokov, let's get on the submarine too," Xu Rui said.
"Comrade Xu Rui, do you want to get on the boat too?" Sumarokov was surprised.
Xu Rui said: "I will personally take you to fight the Japanese and avenge Comrade Krushenko and the others!"
"Okay!" Sumarokov responded, and got into the submarine one after another with Xu Rui.
Everyone was surprised to see Xu Rui also enter the submarine. There was a problem with the oxygen production system of the submarine. It could only last for one hour after submerging. During this hour, we had to fight and return, so there was no possibility of survival.
He was very young, but under such circumstances, Xu Rui still entered the submarine and lived and died with them. This moved the crew members very much, and each of them became more determined to devote themselves to the country.
As the submarine sailed out of the port, Xu Rui shouted: "Dive immediately!"
With waves of rumbling sounds, the submarine's huge hull continued to dive, and finally disappeared below the water surface.
"Comrade Xu Rui, we found the target ahead!"
After walking forward for a while, Sumarokov looked at the sea above through the periscope and said.
Xu Rui also came to the periscope and looked at the situation on the sea. He saw five destroyers surrounding a huge troop carrier moving forward.
Xu Rui snorted coldly and said: "Prepare to launch torpedoes..."
The destroyer Tornado where Takeda Heyori was on was hit by a Soviet gunboat. The Soviet army immediately detonated the ammunition depot. The explosion of the ammunition depot gave the Tornado a fatal blow. One of the side strings of the Tornado's hull was blown open.
There was a big hole, and large amounts of seawater kept pouring in, and it was about to sink.
Takeda Heiyori immediately rushed out of the cabin and came to the deck of the warship. He saw many sailors grabbing lifebuoys and lifeboats. Takeda Heiyori pushed aside the others and jumped into the lifeboat, regardless of the life and death of his men.
He immediately rowed towards the destroyer Sulang next to him.
After finally boarding the Naniwa, Takeda Hirai breathed a sigh of relief and looked into the distance. He saw that the Tornado he was originally on had sunk. Only a few of the more than 200 officers and soldiers on board were saved, and most of them were swallowed by the sea.
Takeda Heirai gritted his teeth and immediately commanded the fleet to move forward. Since the fortress's fort had a small blind spot for shooting, it could only accommodate one warship to pass through. Therefore, Takeda Heirai changed the formation into a long snake formation, with the front being
Two destroyers, followed by three destroyers and frigates, with the troop transport in the center, headed towards the shore of Vladivostok.
A proud smile appeared on Takeda Heirai's face. If this continues, it will only take twenty minutes for the troop transport to land on the beach of Vladivostok. At that time, five thousand marines will be able to cooperate with the fleet to conquer Vladivostok.
The thought of being able to seize the lead of the army and conquer Vladivostok made Takeda Hiranyori even more happy. He said to himself that the army, a bunch of useless guys, were still blocked at the front line of Xingkai Lake. The glory of conquering Vladivostok must belong to the navy. This time,
The navy in the base camp can feel proud in front of the army.
There has always been a dispute between land and sea among the Japanese army. This was a pattern that was formed after the victory of the Overthrow Movement. Many officers of the navy and army were deeply involved in it, and they wanted to trample each other under their feet. Even mid-level and senior officers like Takeda Herayori could not.
To get rid of this inertial thinking, naval officers are proud to achieve military exploits before the army.
Seeing that he was ahead of the army and the troop transport ship was about to land, Takeda Hiranyori was very happy. After this battle, as long as he can successfully capture Vladivostok, he might be directly promoted to general. Thinking of this, Takeda Hiranyori
Even more happy.
"boom!"
A huge explosion sounded, and the entire warship trembled. Takeda Hirai was startled, and immediately walked out of the cabin and came to the deck. He saw the troop ship not far away with flames shooting into the sky and countless screams.
It was reported that sailors kept jumping from the ship into the sea, and then were swallowed by the huge waves...
Takeda Heyori felt his head buzzing, the Fukui Maru was bombed! What happened?
"Colonel Takeda, a Soviet submarine was spotted on the side!" an officer behind him shouted.
Submarine? The Soviets actually have submarines? This is bad. I was still too careless and did not expect that the Soviets actually had submarines.
"No, the Fukui Maru is carrying five thousand marines. If it sinks, wouldn't the five thousand marines have to feed the fish?"
Thinking of this, Takeda Heyori ordered five destroyers to bombard the Soviet submarine, and at the same time ordered the warships to quickly rescue the soldiers on the Fukui Maru.
boom!
The Fukui Maru was hit by another torpedo, and the speed of sinking was greatly accelerated. A large amount of seawater continued to pour into the ship's warehouse. Ten minutes later, the Fukui Maru finally sank in front of the Vladivostok port. Five thousand Japanese marines, all
It sank into the sea with the ship's hull.
"Baga! Where is the Soviet submarine? Sink it immediately!" Takeda Heirai shouted angrily.
"Your Majesty Colonel, the Soviet submarine has disappeared and is probably moving towards the Suzuki."
"What? The Suzuki? No! We must stop the Soviet submarine and return to the Suzuki immediately!"
"Hai!"
On board the Suzuki, Lieutenant General Ozawa has received the news that the Fukui Maru was bombed and sunk by a Soviet submarine.
Lieutenant General Ozawa was shocked. His task force lacked anti-submarine weapons. If it encountered a submarine, it would have no power to fight back. It would only be a living target for the Soviets. Damn the Soviets. The intelligence did not say that they were the main force of the Pacific Fleet.
Have everyone left? Why are there still submarines here?
"General, a Soviet submarine has been spotted ahead!" an officer shouted.
Ozawa trembled and said: "Immediately turn around and contact Takeda Hiranyori and tell the fifth task force to leave Vladivostok immediately!"
