The War of Resistance Against Japan: Special Operations Battalion Traverses Shanghai and Slaughters
Chapter 166 Tail Shot on Japanese Warship
The Japanese soldiers on the "Chasing Wind" are now in complete chaos.
Because the stern of the ship is slowly sinking, while the bow is slowly rising.
Realizing something was terribly wrong, Ryosuke Oshima hurriedly ordered the watertight compartments to be sealed off.
Only by sealing the watertight compartments and preventing seawater from continuing to flood in can the ship be guaranteed not to sink.
Just as the "Chasing Wind" was in complete chaos, Long Fei had already ordered the torpedo boats to turn around and speed towards the "Swift Wind".
However, this time, in order to avoid the bombardment of the Japanese warships, Long Fei had the torpedo boat move to the rear of the Japanese warships.
In this way, only the stern guns of the Japanese warships could attack our side, while the guns in other positions became useless.
"We'll follow right behind the Japanese warships, then quickly get close, launch torpedoes, and immediately turn and leave. Today we're going to blow the Japanese chrysanthemums out of the water."
Masao Shimaki clearly realized Ryubi's intentions, so he immediately ordered a change of direction.
However, such a large warship cannot simply turn at will. In terms of maneuverability, torpedo boats completely outclass destroyers.
Therefore, no matter how the "Hayabusa" changed course, the torpedo boats always kept a close tail on it.
Masao Shimakawa also considered launching torpedoes to sink the torpedo boats, but firstly, the targets were too small and the enemy was too fast, making it almost impossible to hit them.
Secondly, the torpedo boats are now closely following behind, making it impossible to launch torpedoes at them.
Having exhausted all other options, Shimakawa Masao ordered the ship's stern guns to relentlessly fire at the torpedo boats.
The hope is to destroy or sink it before it can launch its torpedoes.
However, the 20mm machine guns on the bow of the torpedo boats were not idle either, constantly firing at the stern guns of the "Hayabusa".
The stern gun of the Japanese ship was finally destroyed after firing more than a dozen shells.
The team member operating the machine gun reported triumphantly to Long Fei.
"Commander, the 20mm armor-piercing shells produced by the Hans are of excellent quality. The Japanese naval guns have been silenced by our firepower."
Long Fei immediately nodded and praised, "Well done, I'll reward you with a pack of cigarettes later. Oh... your arm is injured, medic, quickly treat and bandage it."
The player was so engrossed in the game that he didn't even notice that his right arm had been injured by shrapnel.
Upon turning his head and seeing this, Long Fei hurriedly summoned the medics over.
The team member glanced down and said nonchalantly.
"Commander, it's nothing, just a scrape."
Seeing that his teammates were alright, Long Fei was relieved and immediately gave the order.
"Accelerate and move closer, prepare to launch the starboard torpedoes..."
To ensure a high hit rate, Long Fei only ordered the torpedo boat to fire when it was only three or four hundred meters away from the stern of the "Hayabusa".
After the torpedo was launched, Xie Qiang, who was personally in charge of piloting the vehicle, immediately swerved sharply to the left.
Just six or seven hundred meters after the torpedo boat turned left, the torpedo successfully hit the stern of the "Hayabusa".
With a deafening roar, towering waves were unleashed, and shrapnel from the torpedo explosion ricocheted outwards.
Fortunately, Long Fei had already ordered everyone to crouch down. Although the torpedo boat was made of wood, protective steel plates had been installed in key areas, so it was perfectly capable of withstanding these shrapnel projectiles.
After being hit by a torpedo, the stern of the "Hayabusa" was violently lifted upwards, the huge rudder was blown off, and it sank directly to the bottom of the sea. In addition, not only was a large hole blown in the stern, but the engine room was immediately swallowed by seawater.
After the torpedo exploded and they had avoided the damage from shrapnel, Long Fei ordered them to continue accelerating and leaving.
Because the torpedo boats are now within range of the guns of the other positions on the "Hayabusa".
Like the "Oifu", the "Hayafuru" also began to slowly sink at the stern due to the large amount of water taking in at the stern.
The only difference is that the watertight compartments of the "Hayabusa" were not deformed by the explosion, so after the few watertight compartments at the stern were filled with seawater, they would not continue to sink and the ship would not sink.
However, having lost power, the "Gale" had become an isolated island at sea, and could only wait for rescue.
At this point, the bow of the "Chasing Wind" was raised even higher, and one-third of its stern was already submerged. It was only a matter of time before the entire ship sank.
Moreover, seeing that there was no way to save the situation, Ryosuke Oshima could only painfully order the ship to be abandoned, and the Japanese soldiers hurriedly launched lifeboats.
Xie Qiang then had another team member drive for him while he went outside to check on the results of the battle.
"Haha, we hit the stern of the Japanese 'Hayate' ship, that feels fucking awesome..."
"Although we hit the stern of the Japanese warship, it shouldn't sink. We'll continue our return journey."
Long Fei said softly, with a hint of regret.
"No, Commander, are we just going to leave like this?" Xie Qiang seemed somewhat unwilling.
Although Long Fei was also somewhat unwilling, as the commander, he had to consider everyone's safety.
"Xie Qiang, what else can we do but leave? We're out of torpedoes, and the guns on the 'Gale' aren't to be underestimated."
"Besides, we've already made a killing by sinking two Japanese destroyers and severely damaging one with just one torpedo boat. Let's call it a day."
"Sigh... okay..."
Seeing Xie Qiang's depressed look, Long Fei put his arm around his shoulder and continued to comfort everyone.
"Don't be upset. When our system is upgraded to a higher level, we will definitely be rewarded with advanced warships. Then we will teach the arrogant Japanese navy a lesson at sea."
Just as everyone was nodding silently, Little White suddenly spoke.
"You're right. As long as your level is high enough, not only warships, but also aircraft carriers, satellites, stealth fighters, intercontinental ballistic missiles, and even big sweet potatoes can be rewarded to you."
Long Fei was surprised that Xiao Baibai would speak up, and was about to thank her.
Unexpectedly, Xiaobai continued, "I know you are unwilling, but it's okay, I'm here. This time you intercepted a large amount of wealth looted by the Japanese and achieved good results."
"Therefore, the system has decided to replenish our supplies with two torpedoes, 10,000 rounds each of 20mm and 37mm cannon ammunition, plus one ton of diesel fuel."
"The other rewards will be distributed when you get back. Okay, I've finished speaking. You can go back to beating up the Japanese devils."
"Boom... Hahaha... This War God System is too intelligent, too human-like..."
All ten team members, plus Xie Qiang and Long Fei, became excited.
"Alright, everyone hurry up and load the torpedoes, it's getting dark soon."
After seeing the torpedo boat leave, Shimaki Masao assumed that Ryufei and his men would not come back.
So, while ordering the rescue of the soldiers on the "Chasing Wind" ship, he also sent a telegram to the Shanghai Naval Command explaining the situation and requesting reinforcements.
But a few minutes later, the roar of the torpedo boat engine that terrified the Japanese soldiers reappeared.
Shimakawa Masao picked up his binoculars, observed the situation, and hurriedly shouted, "What?! The torpedo boats are back again! Order the ship's guns to open fire immediately..."
However, the torpedo boats were very fast, and the Japanese ship's guns in the middle and bow only fired three rounds.
The torpedo boat then returned to the stern of the "Hayabusa".
Now that the "Hurricane" has lost power, it has become a sitting duck.
Long Fei didn't need to worry about the other party dodging, so he didn't get too close.
At a distance of about one kilometer, Long Fei ordered the launch, and two torpedoes fell into the sea, hurtling towards the "Hurricane" at high speed.
Masao Shimaki's gaze followed the torpedo boat's movement as he quickly ran to the stern.
When he saw the torpedo boat launch two more torpedoes, he became utterly desperate.
Instead of dodging, he sat down on the spot, prepared to die for his ship in the torpedo explosion, thus showing his loyalty to the Emperor.
