Chapter 17 Majuro Air Battle (5)
At night, a Tang army surveying ship and a two minesweeper boats followed the secret smuggling charts drawn by Masaki Kishida, and passed through the secret waterway between Aroju Island and Neijia Ancient Island to carefully detect the water depth and check whether the waterway is safe. At the same time, a waterway buoy was laid to provide safety guidance for the First Land Warfare Division's troops transport ship disguised as merchant ships behind.
Around the early morning, a pilot force composed of three special forces teams of the First Land War Division and three land warfare companies took the lead in safely entering the inner lake of Majuluo Atoll on two troop transport ships.
According to the information of daytime investigation, the three special forces squads used advanced frogman equipment to dive and infiltrate the three guard posts arranged by the Japanese army on the inside of the lagoon under the cover of night.
The Japanese sentry's alert was very relaxed. Most of the Japanese soldiers on duty on the post were dozing off or leaning in the corner to smoke. They never thought that anyone would dare to launch an attack.
After a Tang army frogman came ashore, he easily touched the sentry tower and reached out to cover the mouth and nose of one of the Japanese soldiers. The sharp dagger quickly, fiercely and accurately stabbed the Japanese sentry's heart.
There were only three or two Japanese sentries in the two front posts, and the Tang army frogmen could use daggers to kill them silently at close range.
When we arrived at the third post, the Japanese sentry doubled, with a total of four, one person standing at each of the two highs and lows, and there were actually two more than during the day.
It turned out that the island commander Tomomi Inada had just received an order from the commander of the Joint Fleet Kobayashi to strengthen the defense of the island. However, Tomomi Inada thought that Tomomi Kobayashi was a big deal and he did not take it seriously. However, he still added double posts to the most critical posts.
This incident made the Tang army special forces members in front of him a little distressed. No matter which direction they touched, they would inevitably be discovered by a sentry among the opponent.
"You can kill them with a silent pistol!"
"No. The hit rate at this distance is not high at night. If the opponent does not hit and shoots the warning, then we will be bad!"
"What should I do? It's all about this, we have no way out!"
Before the action, they were all patting their chests to ensure that they were foolproof. The large army behind was coming and said they could not retreat at this time. Then they would have no shame to show off their abilities in front of others in the future.
"There is another way, one person is to attract their attention head-on so that we can kill them!"
"I know a few Japanese words. I'll go, you can do it, don't sell me!"
Dousha was lying, and he only knew one Japanese. To be precise, he once lay in a Japanese brothel and heard the voice of a Japanese woman. When he heard the sound of a Japanese woman "Amede!Amede" loudly, several of his comrades suddenly collapsed.
However, the bean paste successfully attracted the attention of several Japanese sentries. After all, a big man was like a woman in the dark, so it would be strange if he didn't attract the attention of the Japanese army.
"I must have seen a woman for a long time. I don't know which team is doing homosexuality again. You two go over and take a look and let them stay away from here. I'm almost vomiting with such a disgusting voice!"
The sergeant of the outpost immediately sent two sentries out, so that the sergeant and the other two sentries were left at the outpost. The sergeant was annoyed and went into the room.
The two Japanese walked towards the direction of Dousha shouting, and were curious about why they were alone. Suddenly, their chests were chilling, blood ran wildly, and life passed in the blink of an eye.
The well-trained Tang Army Special Forces immediately supported the bodies of the two Japanese, without making a sound.
At the same time, three other special forces members quickly touched the checkpoint and easily killed two sentries.
When several special forces were about to kill the Japanese commander, they found that the Japanese commander was masturbating in the outpost room.
Several special forces team members were stunned and hesitated for a moment.
At this time, their team leader saw that several subordinates did not take action, and was furious. When they came closer, they could not help but be stunned. However, as the team leader, they still had the ability to deal with things in the face of danger. They immediately took out a pistol equipped with a silencer and killed the Japanese leader immediately.
"I'm going to deal with you when you go back!"
Several team members immediately smiled awkwardly, not daring to delay talking, and hurriedly cleared the bodies and sent out signals.
After receiving the security signal, the Tang army immediately began the landing operation. Dozens of troops transported ships lowered the landing craft, and 12,000 officers and soldiers of the First Land Warfare Division launched the landing operation nervously and orderly.
Although there was no enemy outpost to monitor, the Tang army was still very cautious and did not dare to make a big noise. They quickly built a pier to attract heavy equipment to land.
Everything was going on in an orderly manner. By dawn, more than half of the Tang army's heavy equipment had been transported to the shore.
At the same time, the news that the Tang army's aircraft carrier battle group suddenly accelerated also reached the commander of the Japanese joint fleet, Kobayashi Jizao.
"What is the purpose of the Tang army fleet suddenly accelerating? Is it that it is in a hurry to fight with us?"
"Maybe they are rushing to somewhere!"
Kobayashi quickly took out a compass and ruler, and drew circles on the chart with the location of the Tang army's fleet as the center, with the radius generated by the cruising speed of the Tang army and the speed after speeding up. He made a very professional map. The positions that the Tang army might pass every hour in the future were marked, especially when it intersected with the Marshall Islands controlled by the Japanese army, he marked the time.
"If the Tang army was aiming at our supply station in the Marshall Islands, the normal cruise speed would arrive in 22 hours, and after speeding up, it would arrive in 13 hours. Their carrier-based aircraft had a conservative combat radius of 500 kilometers, which means that in another 3 hours, their bombers would enter the air raft of Majuro."
The staff officer on the side said: "It will be late at night in three hours, so it is impossible for them to hit the target. It will be impossible for them to hit the target when they return. They will all drop into the sea."
Kobayashi Jizao suddenly said: "Where are you looking at us? We are a time zone between us and the Tang army several hours apart. Their current location will usher in the rising sun a few hours in advance, so their carrier-based aircraft will land in the sun after completing the bombing."
"God General, then what should we do?"
Kobayashi snorted coldly, looked at the stars outside, and suddenly ordered: "Order the First Squadron to take Akagi and Kaga to leave the fleet immediately and rush to Majuro at full speed. I want to give them a right and right Hu."
Since it was nighttime, the Tang army's reconnaissance planes would not appear, and Kobayashi did not think that the speed of the nearby Tang army's submarines could keep up with the speed of the Japanese first squadron.
