Devil's Army

Chapter 548: The 1st Army and Navy Go Strong

More than two hours later, the Marines that met with the Gray Wolf Special Forces felt something was wrong and rushed to the Navy Club with the Marines.

It was already midnight. There was no noisy voice in the Navy Club, but there was a strong smell of blood.

The Marine lieutenant ran into the club quickly and was immediately stunned by the tragic scene before him.

All I could see were officers and soldiers of the Empire Navy lying, crawling, or lying on their backs on the floor, chairs, tables, and stage of the club. The floor of the club had been dyed brown-red by blood.

The lieutenant saw Colonel Sakatani lying on the stage and ran up to him, shouting, "Colonel, Colonel..." and using his finger to feel Colonel Sakatani's breath. Unfortunately, Colonel Sakatani was no longer breathing.

The lieutenant immediately arranged for the soldiers to clean up the scene while counting the casualties of their navy in this attack.

The next morning, Commander Yamamoto was shocked when he received a telegram from the Jinzhou Navy.

In one attack, one colonel, two lieutenant colonels, six majors and a number of lieutenants were killed. Even in an ordinary naval battle, the casualties of his naval officers were not that great.

The highest-ranking officer in the Jinzhou Navy now was Major Yamano, who was on duty on the Ise that night.

Commander Yamamoto appointed Major Yamano as the temporary commander of the Jinzhou Navy, responsible for handling all affairs of the Jinzhou Navy.

At the same time, he ordered Colonel Murata, who was cruising on the Yamato battleship in the open sea, to return to Jinzhou immediately to replace Shigeru Sakatani.

It was already five o'clock in the morning when Gray Wolf and his men hijacked the Xiangyang destroyer and arrived near the Huludao Naval Barracks.

Although it was early morning, when people are most sleepy, the special forces members on the Xiangyang were all very excited and not sleepy at all.

At six o'clock, when the reveille sounded, the destroyer Xiangyang also sounded the whistle.

The naval officers and soldiers heard the warship's whistle and looked out to sea, and saw another destroyer docked on the shore next to their barracks.

Everyone was excited. In less than a week, their navy added two more warships.

The Chaoyang cruiser and Huludao destroyer were repaired two days ago and returned to the naval formation of the First Army.

Instructor Wang suggested to Gray Wolf:

"Deputy Commander, the Chaoyang and Huludao have been repaired. We now have four warships. Can we conduct a cruise around Huludao as a demonstration to boost the morale of our navy?"

"Okay, tomorrow. I'll ask the commander today to give the two new warships a name, and change the names this afternoon. You take your men to take the Japanese navy on the Xiangyang destroyer to Chaoyang County first."

"Yes," Gray Wolf called out to Instructor Wang as he was about to leave:

"Where is your Captain Hu?"

"Now our navy is short of manpower, so he went to the tribe to select new recruits for the navy."

"How long will it take for the new recruits to become combat-ready? I'll send out an order later to select some veterans who are good at swimming from nearby brigades and have them report here."

It is definitely easier to train veterans than rookies. Instructor Wang saluted Gray Wolf happily and took his soldiers to escort the 56 Japanese naval prisoners to Chaoyang County.

In the afternoon, Captain Hu returned to the naval camp with more than 200 recruits.

Many of these recruits could not swim. The navy soldiers of the First Army had to learn how to sail and fire artillery, so they had no time to learn how to swim. Therefore, those who could not swim were not recruited.

In the afternoon, the workers at the dock changed the name of the Jichang cruiser to the Diaobingshan cruiser according to Leng Feng's wishes, and the Xiangyang destroyer to the Fuxin destroyer.

Fox Wolf looked at the two warships that were being renamed and said to Gray Wolf excitedly, "Gray Wolf, if you don't hurry up and recapture some more towns, our navy will have no way to name the new warships we capture."

"Then it depends on how fast your navy can capture the warships, or how fast we can recapture the town!"

At six o'clock the next day, when the drill was conducted, Captain Hu divided the naval soldiers on the Chaoyang and Huludao into two teams. One team stayed on the Chaoyang cruiser and the Huludao destroyer, while the other team drove the Diaobingshan cruiser and the Fuxin destroyer.

At eight o'clock in the morning, when the dock was bustling with people, the flagship Chaoyang was in the front, followed by the Huludao destroyer, the Tiaobinshan cruiser, the Fuxin destroyer and three patrol boats lined up in a row.

When the Chaoyang cruiser arrived at the Huludao civilian dock, it sounded the whistle.

The workers who were working at the dock were startled by the sudden whistle and looked towards the sea.

Then they saw a warship slowly approaching with the flag of the First Anti-Japanese Army flying. On the deck of the warship stood a line of First Army naval soldiers wearing majestic blue berets and holding Type 95 automatic rifles.

After the Chaoyang cruiser passed the dock, the Huludao destroyer also entered the dock area and sounded the whistle.

Four warships and three patrol boats entered the dock waters one after another and sounded their whistles one after another.

The workers on the dock were very excited. If their navy became stronger, Huludao would always be firmly in their hands, and their lives would get better and better.

Who knew that a businessman would come to find Gray Wolf next, revealing the unsafe factors hidden beneath the safe surface of Huludao.
