Chapter 810 Ghost (first update, please subscribe)
Saturday, February 2, 27.

In the early morning, the moonlight was hazy, and the originally peaceful Lampung Port was suddenly broken by a burst of rapid footsteps and gunshots. In the darkness of the night, a group of militants armed with rifles and submachine guns quietly appeared like ghosts. They drove out of warehouses or courtyards in trucks and vans. They came prepared and headed straight for their intended targets.

At 1:15 in the morning, they launched a sudden attack on various departments, targeting important departments such as the government, police station and telegraph office in Lampung City. The police officers were caught off guard by the sudden attack and soon lost their ability to resist. The militants quickly captured these key locations and took control of the entire city.

After occupying key departments, the militants began arresting local officials. These officials from Lampung Province were still immersed in sleep, so they were rudely awakened and taken away. If they resisted at all, they would be hacked to death with knives.

For a time, the entire city seemed to be enveloped in an atmosphere of terror. Residents were so frightened that they hid in their homes and did not dare to go out.

When the morning sun was about to rise, all departments, including the port, were controlled by militants, and the entire city fell under the control of militants. They set up a temporary headquarters and began to conduct strict control and searches of the entire city. On the streets, armed men with black cloth strips on their heads can be seen everywhere. Armed with weapons, they patrol every corner with vigilant eyes.

At around 9 a.m., the leader of the occupied Lampung militants announced the establishment of a religious state in Lampung. The fall of the provincial capital of Lampung shocked the entire Indonesia. Jakarta immediately stated that it would send troops to quell the rebellion in Lampung.

This day seems to be an extremely ordinary day, but for Indonesia, it is a fate-changing day.

What was captured by a sudden rebellion was not just a city in a province in southern Sumatra, but spread the clouds of turmoil to all parts of Indonesia, and for a time a conspiracy of turmoil enveloped all parts of the country.

When the Jakarta authorities were moving troops around and preparing to recapture Lampung, the armed forces led by Ud Beleu of Aceh also launched a larger-scale attack. The local situation in Sumatra became tense, leaving the authorities unable to The Sumatra region mobilized troops to Lampung. In order to quell the rebellion in Lampung as soon as possible, the Jakarta authorities could only mobilize troops from the main island of Java to Lampung.

The first mate agreed.

Although the submarine has been submersing under the sea, Huo Yunhai, as the captain, still issues orders from time to time to guide the submarine towards the target - there is a pair of eyes in the sky guiding it, and a reconnaissance aircraft has been flying in the air.

"Open the launch tube!"

"Get into position!"

"Yes, sir."

"The target is heading towards us, dive to periscope depth and maintain level sailing!"

After the "Shark" dived, the sailors in the submarine quietly waited for the last moment to arrive.

On March 3, after several days of preparation, nearly 11 national troops boarded a transport ship from Jakarta to Sumatra. When a merchant ship full of Indonesian officers and soldiers sailed out of the port, they were killed in the Sea of ​​​​Java. Under the calm waters south of the islands, a submarine was cruising slowly. Two days ago, the submarine "Shark" sailed out from the Kuching Naval Base, and then lurked in this sea area, and then went out day and night, quietly waiting for its target.

Huo Yunhai, wearing a military cap backwards, lay behind the periscope, staring at the approaching black dot in the distance. Although he did not need to identify the target, the navy's reconnaissance plane had been staring at the troop transport ship, but before the final attack , he still needs to confirm the target.

The moment he entered the position, Huo Yunhai's face flashed with excitement.

"Yes, Captain."

At this time, the helmsman was holding the big steering wheel and staring at the depth gauge calmly. There was no trace of pre-battle anxiety in the boat.

The submarine force is the elite of the Nanyang Navy. They have a glorious history, and the "Shark" is a submarine with a glorious history. Although the "Shark" bought from Italy that sunk the battleship Yamato has been It was turned into a museum and permanently displayed on the shore, but the name "Shark" was inherited by this Type 21 submarine.

"The launch tube is open, sir!"

A report from the torpedo squad leader in the torpedo room came over the loudspeaker.

"Very good!" Huo Yunhai once again approached the periscope. At this time, the Indonesian merchant ship with the red and white flag was in his sight. Yes, it was this ship. Through the periscope, he could even see the sailors standing on the side. .

"Slow launch!"

The torpedo launcher on the fire control station was concentrating on his post. The launcher tried his best to calm down his excitement. This time he was not launching a fake torpedo with a yellow warhead, but a torpedo with a real warhead. torpedoes to bombard enemy ships full of soldiers.

In fact, this is not an enemy country, but a secret attack. In addition to these naval officers and soldiers on the submarine, there was also an agent from the Secret Intelligence Service. The purpose of this operation was to prevent the Jakarta authorities from sending troops to the Sumatra region. In fact, it was to weaken the opponent's power and thereby allow the local armed forces to The elements can persist longer. After all, Indonesia is a small country, and it is very difficult for them to remove even a few thousand troops.

Such a secret operation will never appear in the captain's navigation manual, and will never be told to the outside world.

Except that the atmosphere inside the boat was so tense that it was almost breathless. This seems to be no different from the past offensive training or maritime exercises!
Huo Yunhai, who raised the periscope, was concentrating on observing the target on the sea, and at the same time slowed down his breathing as much as possible.

"Aiming...distance..."

With a slow launch, it is more difficult to aim, there are more opportunities for mistakes, and the torpedo's wake is more likely to be detected by the enemy.

But Huo Yunhai still chose to launch slowly. His decision was based on the experience accumulated from past exercises and training. What he needed to consider was that the troop carrier must be hit in one hit, and they might even have only one chance to launch.

At this time, the torpedo launcher's heart was pounding, his mouth was as dry as a mouthful of dust, and a strong sense of suffocation lingered in his heart. At this time, the captain's order was issued.

"Launch one! Launch two!"

Following the captain's order, the torpedo launcher pressed the launch button. Following a slight bump in the boat and two dull air explosions, two torpedoes were launched from the torpedo tubes of the submarine "Shark" in sequence. Got out.

From the periscope, Huo Yunhai did not see a white torpedo wake. The torpedoes used by submarines now are not steam gas torpedoes, but electric torpedoes, so they do not produce bubble wakes. Now the two torpedoes are heading towards their target.

"Lower the periscope!"

Following the captain's order, there was another burst of silent, heart-stopping anticipation on the "Shark". People stared at the second hand of the clock in the control room. According to the last distance called out, it is not difficult to calculate the time it takes to hit the target by firing at a slow speed.

Huo Yunhai, who was holding a stopwatch in his hand, was sweating on his forehead. His left hand was firmly grasping the armrest of the periscope, anxiously waiting to determine the outcome of the battle. The hour hand of the stopwatch was turning "click-click". At this time, he even just The beating of the heart can be heard.

"boom!"

After a long wait, the sailors heard a dull explosion, and a second later, there was another loud bang.

"Hit!"

The originally silent submarine suddenly erupted with excited shouts from the sailors. The excited sailors even hugged each other to vent their excitement.

Huo Yunhai, holding a stopwatch in his hand, was calculating in his mind - the distance to the nearest land here is 32 kilometers. May... God bless us!

With this thought in his mind, he ordered.

"Adjust the course and return..."
