Recently, the rapid multiwavelength photometry and flash spectra of supernova (SN) 2013fs imply that the progenitor stars of regular type II SNe (SNe II) might be commonly surrounded with a confined dense stellar wind ejected by themselves with large mass loss rate few years before the SNe. Based on the assumption that the pre-SN progenitor stars of SNe II have a SN 2013fs-like wind, $\dot{M}\sim3\times10^{-3}(v_w/100\rm km\,s^{-1})M_\odot\rm yr^{-1}$, we investigate the neutrino emission during the wind breakouts of SN shocks. We find that the regular SNe II can convert a fraction $\sim10^{-3}$ of their bulk kinetic energy into neutrino emission, which can contribute a significant fraction of the IceCube-detected neutrino flux at $\ga300$ TeV. It is likely that including the contribution by the subset of type IIn SNe, the total SNe II neutrino emission can account for the IceCube neutrinos at $\ga300$ TeV. Moreover, the $\la200$~TeV IceCube neutrinos can be accounted for by cosmic rays produced by the shocks of all SN remnants, losing energy in their host galaxies, i.e., starburst galaxies. The future (non-)detections of neutrinos by Gen2 and gamma-rays by CTA and LHAASO from nearby individual SNe II will test this model.
