Chapter 580: Shipwreck

This ship is different from the sunken warships that Yang Jing saw in the waters near the Port of Lorenga before. From the appearance of this ship, it looks more like an armed transport ship.

The water depth of the sea area selected by Yang Jing today is quite acceptable, exceeding 200 meters, but not far to the east of where Yang Jing anchored, there was a raised ridge, and the armed transport ship was lying flat. On this ridge.

   The distance between the sea ridge and the sea is only sixty or seventy meters, so this sunken armed transport ship sank on the ridge. Even without the help of lights, Yang Jing could see the ship clearly after getting close.

The reason why it can be determined that this is a Japanese armed transport ship, because although this ship has sunk on the seabed for more than 70 years, the ship’s number can still barely be seen clearly. The ship’s name is called "First Xinxingwan" number.

   Moreover, the twin-mounted 120mm gun can be seen on the stern of this ship. On the decks on both sides of the hull, you can also see the rusty 25mm rapid-fire gun.

   This kind of weaponry was the standard equipment of Japanese armed transport ships during World War II. If this ship is complete, its length should exceed 80 meters, and its displacement should be close to three thousand tons. But it is a pity that the entire bow of this ship has disappeared. Yang Jing estimated that the ship was bombed by a US-Australian coalition dive bomber, and then the ammunition depot under the main gun of the ship's bow was hit. , The ammunition exploded, directly blasting the entire bow of the ship, which caused the ship to sink rapidly.

The blasting of the ammunition depot is a very scary thing. Let alone this kind of thin-skinned transport ship, even a battleship, if it catches up with the blast, it can directly make a battleship with a displacement of more than 30,000 tons. Sunk directly.

   The entire bow of the "First Xinxing Maru" was blown up. Except for the bombing of the ammunition storehouse, Yang Jing really couldn't think of any other way to make this ship look like this.

   However, this armed transport ship also reminded Yang Jing of a small naval battle in the Kuril Islands in northern Japan after the Emperor of Japan announced an unconditional surrender.

The naval battle was a battle between two Japanese armed transport ships and Lao Maozi's two x6nc submarines. One of the two armed transport ships of Japan was the one that made meritorious deeds. The name is just that. It is called the "Second Xinxing Maru".

   That ship should be a sister ship to the armed transport ship that sank on the bottom of the sea.

   Around the end of World War II, there were many little-known battles between Lao Maozi and the Japanese army, including the last naval battle of World War II.

   That was on August 22, 1945, Soviet submarines l19 and l12 continued to conduct battle cruises in the waters near Hokkaido. At this time, it was one week after Japan’s Emperor Hirohito announced an unconditional surrender.

  Because of the issue of the ownership of the Kuril Islands, the Soviet army is now preparing for the landing battle to occupy the island. On this day, the two submarines of the Soviet Pacific Fleet encountered two Japanese transport ships.

One of the two ships was a cargo ship called "Taito Maru". At that time, the ship was carrying 700 people. As a result, under the combined attack of the two Soviet submarines, the ship did not even struggle. Two torpedoes were sent to the bottom of the sea, and even more than 700 passengers on the ship went back to the bottom of the sea.

   After the two Soviet submarines succeeded in ambushing, they continued to sail until they saw a larger cargo ship approaching the port of Hokkaido through the periscope. This is another Japanese transport ship "Second Xinxing Maru" that is transporting Japanese expats on Sakhalin Island, but this ship is actually an armed transport ship belonging to the Japanese Navy, which can also be called a special naval gunboat.

   At that time, the "Second Xinxing Maru" was carrying 780 Japanese soldiers.

The Soviet submarine quickly launched a torpedo and successfully hit the "Second Xinxing Maru", but when the Soviet Army thought that the ship had also lost its resistance, in order to save torpedoes, the two Soviet submarines from When it floated to the surface of the sea and was about to use the submarine's own artillery to eliminate the transport ship, it was suddenly violently fired by four 120mm naval guns and some 25mm machine guns installed by the Second Xinxing Maru.

   The last two Soviet submarines quickly dived, leaving only a large amount of heavy oil on the sea. The 2,700-ton No. 2 Xinxing Maru also struggled to return to the port, and was completely scrapped in 1966. However, the Soviet submarine No. 19 never appeared again.

   That is to say, in the naval battle that claimed to be the end of World War II, Japan relied on an armed transport ship to forcibly kill an old Maozi x6nc submarine.

   It is the "Second Xinxing Maru" that created this feat.

   The armed transport ship in front of me is called the "Daily Xinxing Maru", maybe it is really the sister ship of the transport ship that sank the Lao Maozi submarine.

   It’s just that this ship is obviously not as lucky as its sister ship, so it can only lie on the cold sea bottom now.

   This is the first time Yang Jing has seen a sunken transport ship on the bottom of the sea. Although he is a little curious, Yang Jing is not ready to investigate the transport ship carefully. After all, this ship has been sunk here for so many years, and it is estimated that how many people have been surveyed by it for a long time.

   But when Yang Jing was about to leave here, he used the Sky Eye skill in a ghostly manner, but it didn't matter at all, Yang Jing unexpectedly found a faint turquoise light in the ship.

   This discovery caused Yang Jing to pause involuntarily, and he couldn't be sure whether he was dazzled.

   During the Second World War, Japan himself searched for supplies in Southeast Asia and even Guinea. From crude oil to iron ore to all kinds of precious metals, the little devil is like a locust crossing the border.

  Yes, the actions of Japan in those days are well-known things, so for the sunken ships of Japan during World War II, especially the transport ships, the salvage companies of all sizes all over the world attach great importance to it.

This ship was definitely sunk during World War II. It has been sunk for more than 70 years, and it is not a deep water area. The water depth of the sunken ship is only sixty to seventy meters. It is estimated that the ship has been looted long ago. I don’t know how many times.

   Why is there still Baoguang on this ship?

   Yang Jing did not believe in evil and used the Sky Eye skill again, only to find that a faint radiance appeared.

   is just from the point of view of the light emitting from it, not in the bridge or the deck cabin, but in the pressurized water tank at the bottom of the ship.

   This discovery made Yang Jing a little interested. Obviously, this transport ship may be preparing to arrive at Lorengau, or it may have just left from Lorengau, but in any case, the ship failed to reach its destination successfully, but was caused by the enemy. The plane sank.

   And since the precious light can show through, it means that this ship is loaded with some very valuable things.

   Yang Jing looked at the meter of the compressed air bottle, and found that the compressed air in the bottle had been used for more than half, and he could last for another twenty minutes at most, so he thought about it and floated directly to the sea.

  Although he has storage space, Yang Jing does not yet have the special ability to breathe underwater, and he has never done it before changing a compressed air bottle under water, so he can only honestly float to the sea level to replace the compressed air bottle.

   The open-head sports boat stopped on the sea not far away, and there was not even a ghost shadow around it. Yang Jing stepped on the water and took out a full of compressed air bottles from the storage space. After replacing it, he pulled out a deep-diving lithium electric lamp, put it on his head and plunged one end into the water. Swim to the sunken ship below.

   This time Yang Jing didn't stay outside anymore, but swam directly along the big hole where the bow of the ship was blown up.

Shipwrecks have always been a paradise for all kinds of marine creatures, especially small creatures. Yang Jing just got in a little bit. Big and small squids, small octopuses, and other fishes were startled everywhere. Those can put "ink" "The squids have eliminated a lot of black juice one after another, making it impossible to see anything around them.

Squid and some octopuses and fish like to parasitize in shipwrecks. When Yang Jing entered, it was like throwing a stone into the pit of aqua toilet in the dog days. All these fishes fled everywhere like mung bean flies. .

Regarding this, Yang Jing has no idea. Fortunately, natural skills can see the treasure through the sea water that has been blackened by "ink", but it can allow Yang Jing to slowly explore and enter the interior of this transport ship~www.readwn. com~ After arriving inside the ship, there are much less squid and octopus. For fish, the interior of this shipwreck is an out-and-out labyrinth. Don’t look at where they were born and grew up, but if you dare to enter the hull of the ship, you will also be lost and find a way out. Starved to death in it.

   Therefore, in some relatively well-preserved shipwrecks, there are few fishes.

Because Yang Jing swims in from the broken part of the bow, he doesn't need to start from the deck to find his way down, as long as he swims along the bottom of the cabin, he can reach the position close to the stern of the ship. .

The pressurized water tank of the "First Xinxing Maru" was not exploded in that ammunition blast, so Yang Jing could not directly enter the pressurized water tank at the lowest level, and could only find and enter from the upper level cabin. The entrance to the pressurized water tank.

   After swimming for about forty meters along the bottom cabin, Yang Jing suddenly felt that a fish had disappeared. Although there are very few fish living in the cabin, it does not mean that there are absolutely no fish.

   But this is how it is here, you can't see a single fish when you swim.

   This situation immediately raised Yang Jing's heart.

"Could it be that there are some large carnivorous fishes living around here? Otherwise, why don't those small fishes appear here? But how can large carnivorous fishes live in such a small cabin... Ouch... ..."

In the front, Yang Jing thought in his heart, but he directly cursed the last four words, and a series of bubbles immediately came out of his mouth, and choked him... ..
