Thank you~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The first small-scale naval battle between the Tang and Japanese navies ended in a draw, but in terms of casualties, 25 people in the Tang army were injured, while only 7 of the Japanese army were slightly injured.

After Li Haichen counted the casualties and damage management reports, he immediately informed the Fleet Command of the battle situation.

Zhang Meng was really unhappy when he learned that Li Haichen failed to wipe out two Japanese ships, but he did not blame him. Because Zhang Meng was very aware of the huge gap in strength between the Tang Empire Navy and the Japanese Navy. For the newly established Tang Empire Royal Navy, it was already rare to be able to retreat and preserve his strength in the first battle.

In Zhang Meng's opinion, it will take at least three to five years of hard training to truly compete with the Japanese Navy on the sea.

But Zhang Meng was not interested in fighting with the Japanese Navy on the sea. It was not Zhang Meng's style to hit the stone with eggs. He wanted to use his own advantages to defeat his opponent.

Fortunately, Zhang Meng did not expect to defeat the Japanese Navy through naval battles on the water from the beginning, so he did not customize or rent large surface warships such as Super Dauntless Battleships and Heavy Cruisers. Zhang Meng has always actively developed asymmetric combat forces, and he planned to use aircraft and submarines to smash the Japanese Navy's invasion attempts.

The original plan to ambush Aso Kotaro were six Tang Army V4 submarines lurking in the No. 5 waters. Unfortunately, the plan changed. Because the V4 submarine was too slow, it rushed to the battlefield in time to participate in the battle after the combat plan was changed, and it was unable to take advantage of the submarine sneak attack.

But Zhang Meng never let anyone who dares to provoke him, so naturally he won't let Aso Kotaro go.

After receiving Li Haichen's report, Zhang Meng immediately ordered the Air Force to send a large number of reconnaissance planes to find Japanese ships.

Half an hour later, the reconnaissance plane found two fleeing Japanese ships in the waters 350 kilometers northeast of Yanjing.

It turned out that Aso Kotaro did not go far. He directly reported to Ono Shi Sannen that he had successfully completed the provocation mission. He concealed the truth and insisted that Tang Jun opened the fire first.

Shi Minomi Ono was very happy and immediately reported to Kato of the military command. Kato ordered the Tang Teng Mixed Fleet to launch an attack on the Tang Empire immediately and demanded that the battle be resolved within three days. The Marines completed the military occupation of the Tang Empire, which created a fait accompli before the British reacted.

Ono Shisannian ordered the fleet to accelerate its march towards the Tang Empire, which is expected to arrive tomorrow afternoon. Aso Kotaro was praised by Ono Shisannian for his first contribution and was ordered to continue to approach the land of the Tang Empire and be responsible for opening a safe channel mission for the Tang Dynasty Special Mixed Fleet.

"Report, the Tang army's reconnaissance plane was found in the southwest direction!"

After receiving the report, Kotaro Aso ignored it. In addition to his contempt for the Tang army, he also had no choice but to use the planes in the sky. He would definitely not be able to fight, and he could not escape the other party. Therefore, he ordered the Tenno and Ryuta to continue to detect nearby waters and open up a safe channel for Ono Shisanji's main fleet.

"Discover mines!"

Hearing the shouts of the mine-de-de-soldiers, Aso Kotaro was so angry that his beard was raised. After moving forward less than two kilometers, he had already found at least nine mines. Such high-density mine-burning really made him crazy. At this progress, if you want to open a safe passage close to the coastline of the Tang Empire in one day, at least 300 minesweepers would need to be used to clear a safe passage.

"How many mines have the damn Chinese people deployed? They are just a group of cowards!"

Aso Kotaro kept complaining, he didn't know how to explain to Ono Shi Sanno, because he had just promised him that it would take only one day to open up a safe channel.

The two Japanese ships continued to circumnavigate around the waters around the Tang Empire, trying to find a safe channel, but they could not find a safe channel until sunset.

At this time, the Tang army reconnaissance plane that had been following the Japanese ship had already flew away. Planes of this era could not come out for reconnaissance missions at night, so the Tang army's reconnaissance plane had to return.

Aso Kotaro saw that the Tang army's reconnaissance plane had been staring for an afternoon, but no Tang army warship came. He thought the Tang army was really scared, so he boldly continued to quickly and safe the waterway.

But what he never expected was that under the sea, there were always Tang army submarines staring at him.

"On the air!"

In order to track two Japanese ships, the Silver Carp submarine has been in a submarine state. The air inside the submarine is getting less and less. If it weren't for darkness, it wouldn't dare to breathe.

At this time, the two ships of Tianlong and Ryuta were always looking for safe channels and were worried about encountering mines, so the speed was always very slow. Therefore, the Silver Carp could also keep up with them with a submersible speed of eight knots.

"What time is it?" asked Captain Shao Yingnan, the captain of the Silver Carp.

"Ten minutes and eight o'clock left! Sir!"

"It's dark and it's hard for the Japanese devils to clear mines, so they will leave and hide in the high seas soon."

"Our fleet and submarines are coming quietly."

"The Japanese have already run away when they come!" Shao Yingnan thought of this and immediately ordered: "Diver depth 1 meter, prepare for battle!"

"Yes! Battle preparation!"

All the personnel in the boat entered their respective combat positions. It was not until then that they realized that Shao Yingnan was going to attack the Japanese warship, and they all became excited.

"Diver depth of 1 meter, speed of 6 knots and 2 chains!"

"Search for the Tianlong!"

"Target Tianlong, report the search results for the sea!"

"Azip 080, distance 700 meters, speed 7 knots and 2 chains!"

"It's 8th quarter! The enemy ships seem to be accelerating! They are leaving!"

If the Japanese ship plans to leave, it will be difficult for the Silver Carp to catch up with them and will inevitably lose their target.

Thinking of this, Shao Yingnan affirmed his thoughts again. He quickly calmed down, used the pencil and triangle in his hand to outline and calculate the advantageous attack position.

"Left Ruler Five! Fighting Speed!"

"Yes! Left Ruler Five, go forward at full speed!"

The Silver Carp quickly approached the route where the Tianlong was. The Japanese sailors above were worried that they would be discovered by the Tang army, so they did not dare to turn on the lights. This greatly affected the Japanese army's reconnaissance ability, especially at night, where the visual distance was 100 meters away, and nothing could be seen.

"Target Tianlong, report the search results for seas!"

"Azip 260, distance 500 meters, speed 8 knots!"

The Japanese ship was turning, and Shao Yingnan calculated and thought it was the best opportunity. He immediately ordered: "Keep the course and keep the distance!"

Soon, the silver carp maintained the same direction as the Tianlong, and the same speed, and the diagonal distance was maintained at about 300 meters.

"Torpedo No. 1 to 4 is ready, with a fixed depth of 2 meters!"

The lightning strike repeats the command: "Fixed depth of 2 meters! Prepare before the launch of torpedo No. 1 to 4!"

When the order was issued, the operator quickly opened the torpedo compartment and took out the torpedo.

The 533 mm torpedo has a huge body and weighs 900 kilograms. It cannot be moved by manpower. It needs to be installed on the pulley through a slide rail and then sent into the torpedo launch tube.

The operator turned the roulette hard, and amid the creaking sound of the metal track sliding, the torpedo slowly moved towards the torpedo launch tube.

V4 submarines do not have torpedo loaders, so the process of loading torpedoes takes a long time.

Several torpedo soldiers quickly equipped the torpedo with fuses, calibrated the depth, and sent four torpedoes into the No. 1 to 4 torpedo launch cabins.

Knock! The torpedo compartment is locked.

"No. 1 is ready!" The No. 1 torpedo soldier reported.

"No. 2 is ready!" The No. 2 torpedo soldier reported.

"No. 3 is ready!" The No. 3 torpedo soldier reported.

"No. 4 is ready!" The No. 4 torpedo soldier reported.

"The four torpedoes are ready!" The lightning strike leader reported to commander Shao Yingnan.

Shao Yingnan shouted immediately: "Left Manru!"

"Yes! The left rudder is full!" The helmman quickly knocked the rudder to the left to the end, and the submarine quickly turned left ninety degrees, which was perpendicular to the Tianlong route.

So the crew grabbed the handrail to prevent falling until the submarine turned.

"Azip 065, distance 200 meters, speed 8 knots" observer made the last correction before carrying out the attack.

Shao Yingnan shouted, "Target Tianlong, shoot two shots together!"

"Start two torpedoes together! Prepare! Launch!" The lightning strike leader ordered.

The two torpedo soldiers quickly pressed the trigger in the shape of a hand.

With two muffled sounds, the torpedo ignited in the launching pipe and was ejected. With the sound of the whistling air flow, the two torpedoes dragged their long bubble-shaped tails and shot quickly towards the enemy ship.

"The No. 1 torpedo has been launched!"

"The second torpedo has been launched!"

Shao Yingnan immediately pressed the pocket watch meter in his hand, and the submarine was quiet, and only the sound of the stopwatch ticking.

A few seconds later, a huge roar sounded. The observer saw a violent explosion of thunder in the bow of the Ryutian from the periscope, and immediately reported: "One fire is empty! One shot hits the Ryutian!"

All the crew members screamed happily, but Shao Yingnan's smile came to an abrupt end.

Only one of the two torpedoes was shot, but it was not the Tianlong who was aiming at it, but the Dragon Field behind it. Shao Yingnan's face suddenly turned red.

Soon, all the crew members thought of this problem and immediately became quiet.

Shao Yingnan hurriedly grabbed the periscope and observed it. It turned out that the bow of the Dragon Field ship behind was blown to pieces, and the strong fire rushed into the sky, illuminating most of the sky.

In the flash, Shao Yingnan understood the problem, because it was the first time to carry out such a practical task. His British teacher was a little stingy and did not teach him more practical experience. So Shao Yingnan was nervous and forgot that he had not calculated the nearby current velocity, which caused the torpedo trajectory to deviate.

At this moment, the Dragon Sky was sinking rapidly, and the Tianlong in front turned around and turned on the searchlight.

Shao Yingnan hurriedly ordered to put away the periscope, and at the same time, the searchlight of the Tianlong was swept over, but nothing was found.

About a few minutes later, Shao Yingnan raised his periscope again.

I saw thick smoke on the sea surface, and the searchlight of the Tianlong was still shining everywhere, but most of the time it was illuminating the sinking Dragon Field to help save people.

The Dragon Sky sank quickly, and dozens of sailors who escaped from the Dragon Sky were being rescued by colleagues on the Dragon Sky.

Suddenly, Aso Kotaro thought that the Ryuta had hit a thunder, so he was organizing human rescue. When Shao Yingnan saw that the Divine Dragon stopped the ship to save people, he immediately ordered the Divine Dragon to lock again.

Under the night, the Silver Carp quietly approached the Tianlong, which was anchored. When the distance was less than 200 meters, Shao Yingnan ordered the launch of the No. 3 and No. 4 torpedoes.

Two torpedoes crashed straight into the starboard ship's waterline belt of the Tianlong, and exploded. The waterline belt with a dome armor protection of less than 30 mm was instantly exploded for more than 20 meters, and most of the facilities of the Tianlong ship were blown to pieces.

Under the night, there was a smoke of fire hundreds of meters high on the Tianlong. Then the ship's ammunition depot was fired and exploded. The entire warship was instantly bombed into two pieces, and the sea water violently poured back into the hull to sink at a speed of sight. The Japanese sailors who had escaped from the Dragonda had just climbed onto the Tianlong and suffered another disaster. They also followed the sailors on the Tianlong and were swallowed by the fire and sea water without any time to react.

The Tennori sinks faster than the Ryuta and sinks into the sea in less than thirty seconds. Hundreds of people on Aso Kotaro ship are buried in the sea together.

Of course, there were still a few Japanese sailors alive, fluttering in the sea.

The silver carp quickly floated to the sea, and more than a dozen Tang army sailors holding M1 submachine guns fired at the sea without saying a word. It was too late when Shao Yingnan came out to stop them.

"I said you guys are just a bastard, so you can leave me a living!"

"Report to the sir! Our hometown is from Jinan!"

The sailors choked up before they continued to speak. Shao Yingnan immediately understood that the Japanese army committed the Jinan tragedy three years ago, and these sailors were probably killed by their relatives.

"Don't worry! Didn't our Crown Prince say that the debts owed by the Japanese are to be paid for blood debts!"

"Blood debt and blood repayment!"
Chapter completed!
