Chapter 405: The submarines made a name for themselves in battle, annihilating over 10,000 Japanese troops and sinking five destroyers.

The arrival of the bombers essentially foreshadowed the tragedy of the Japanese escort fleet.

The entire fleet was led by a merchant ship converted into an escort cruiser with a displacement of about 5,000 tons, along with five destroyers escorting eight troop transport ships.

They carried over 10,000 soldiers and over 10,000 tons of supplies.
