Chapter 172: Raid

In 1947, the United States Coalition Army called this day Black Friday in the future, the powerful coalition forces from the last time in Normandy after the heel, actively learned a lesson, after the last defeat Churchill then gathered the Combine 450 divisions, threatened to smash the German positions in Normandy, Li Ming in order to cooperate with the German army to defend the Normandy front, and then suggested that Hitler change the password, Hitler was suspicious, and then under the investigation of the German SS, the password was really leaked, and the angry Hitler investigated and punished the leaker, Li Ming told Hitler that now that Britain and the United States had mastered our army's combat intentions and that the code had been deciphered, the Yuan Yuan would not let us put on a good show for the United States and Britain, that is, to make a new set of passwords, invalidate the old ones, and then leak the false information to the British and US military leaders。。。。。。。。。。。。

Hitler gave a meeting to the German generals to talk about the code, and then Hitler deliberately walked a battle plan for the scorched earth, which meant bombing Moscow, 30,000 planes, Hitler gave this information to the sender, and the sender sent the report according to the regulations, the British received this information, as the Allied Churchill sent a report to Stalin, Stalin received that Hitler wanted to bomb Moscow, he was shocked, the Soviet troops began to withdraw part of the troops near Moscow, the entire Moscow city was in high tension, Stalin also sent air defense forces, The Soviets began to build bomb shelters, which were built in every country during the war。。。。。。 The USSR was no exception.

Moscow of the Soviet Union was not attacked by German artillery for several days, and that night Li Ming gave the Ghost Special Combat Team an order to plan the battle, and Li Ming, as the leader of the Ghost Special Combat Team, began to land the British Royal Navy Elizabeth on the plane at night。。。。。。。。 In order not to attract the attention of the British army, the special combat team is wearing black clothes, the ghost troops are all veterans in the Northern Army, veterans who have survived a lot of baptisms of war, and they have rich combat experience, so they have also strengthened training for 3 years, and they are all skilled in assault operations, jungle operations, assassination operations, and decapitation operations, and the team members are the elite of the elite, and the ghost troops are all using silenced pistols, as well as radios, everyone is equipped with a saber, a backpack with something to eat, a bullet bag, **, and even a bullet box on the belt.

With the support of the plane, the team members began to grab the rope and slide off the boat. At this moment, the British sentry on the warship shot the silencer gun of the ghost special combat team and killed it, and the six British corpses were quickly dragged away by the team members and hid beside it。。。。。。。。

The special combat team with rich combat experience quickly changed into British military clothes, pulled the smoke of the navy hat down very low, and soon the ghost special combat team rushed into the ship, and a part of the special combat team quickly killed a wave of British troops, without shooting with short knives, Li Ming led people to kill the British commander, and the warship was already under the control of the special combat team。。。。。。。。。 Captured a lot of British navy, at this time Li Ming sent a report to succeed, Gao Zhihang sent an air force transport plane to transfer a part of the troops into the warship,,,,,, Li Ming began to force the British troops inside to send a report to other search destroyers to lie that the destroyer was docked, and the destroyer on the shore was then surrounded by the destroyers of the Northern Army, and soon took control of the 。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

British destroyers were created

In the mid-30s, the British Navy began to find that the standards of destroyers in its fleet were lagging behind the new destroyers that were being built or were already in service in other countries. Japan's special (Fukiyuki-class destroyers) destroyers, Italy's Voyager-class, France's Utopian-class and America's Porter-class all have more and more powerful guns and **, with a displacement of 1,750 to 2,500 tons while possessing high speeds.

The design of a new destroyer began to be on the table, requiring more powerful armament for surface combat. Among the tasks that the British Navy asked the new destroyer to perform were: "patrolling, pursuit, outflanking, close support of the destroyer squadron, performing reconnaissance and escort missions jointly with the cruiser." The design requirements developed based on the above tasks include:

5 twin 4.7-inch (120 mm) guns with low elevation

Good communication and command skills

The maximum speed is 35 knots; It has a range of 5,500 nautical miles at 15 knots

A lightweight** launch tube for attacks in low visibility and at night

According to the limits of the London Naval Treaty, the standard displacement was 1850 tons

In November 1935, the Admiralty approved the final design:

The Tribal-class destroyer has a total length of 377 feet, a width of 36.5 feet, a draft of 9 feet, a standard displacement of 1,959 tons, and a crew of 190 (219 lead ships: Avliti, Cossacks, Somalis, Tatars).

The four twin 4.7-inch guns were mounted in A, B, X, and Y gun emplacements, and the guns were QF Mk XII 45x diameter 4.7-inch guns, mounted on Mk XIX gun mounts, with a fairly good gun shield and an open turret rear. With a rate of fire of 12 rounds per minute, it is designed to fire at the air, but the maximum elevation angle is only 40 degrees. A total of 2,400 rounds of ammunition were prepared, including 400 anti-aircraft shells and 400 flares. The originally planned fifth 120-mm gun was withdrawn and replaced by a 4-pack 2-pounder "Bang Bang" gun, placed at the forward end of the X-gun deck, shelled

With a trigger fuse, the rate of fire is 400 rounds / min, and the reserve ammunition is 14400 rounds, but its low muzzle velocity results in an effective range of only 1700 yards, and it is easy to jam, because there is no shooting commander, so it can only be aimed manually, and it has limited effect in the face of high-speed aircraft, but at least the density of the fire of this artillery is still fearsome, and it can boost morale to a certain extent. Two other quadruple 12.7-mm anti-aircraft machine guns were installed in the middle of the hull, between two chimneys, with 10,000 rounds of ammunition in reserve. A quadruple ** launch tube is installed behind the rear chimney.

On top of the bridge is a standard destroyer-type command and control tower (DCT, Di

), which is used only as a command of sea/land fire. At the same time, it is also equipped with a rangefinder, which is only used for range-finding when attacking sea/land, and is responsible for range-finding and aiming shooting when shooting at the air. The pitch, rotation and reloading of the 4.7-inch gun have been motorized, as has the rotation of the command and control tower and the ** tube. Anti-submarine equipment includes sonar; A short deep bomb delivery track at the stern of the ship can hold three bombs; On the X-gun deck, there are two deep projectiles, arranged on either side of the rear mast, and the whole ship can carry a total of 30 deep bombs

In the past, the destroyers built by the British Navy built a destroyer with a larger size, displacement and different weapons for each class as a destroyer, but the tribal class canceled this practice, and the lead ship did not differ from the rest of the ships in size, displacement and armament, only in the crew establishment. It is worth mentioning that A.P. Cole, the designer of the tribal class, also took into account the appearance of the ship, and he believed that a beautiful warship would increase the pride of the crew, which was quite difficult to grasp. Many consider the Tribal class to be the most beautiful British destroyer of World War II.

The power plant was three navy-type three-boiler cartridge boilers, which were distributed in three boiler compartments. Separated by a waterproof engine room after the boiler room is the engine room, where two Parsons geared steam turbines are capable of providing 44,000 horsepower to the two-shaft propellers, allowing the warship to reach a planned top speed of 36 knots, or about 32.5 knots in the worst sea conditions. The boiler pressure is the same as that of previous British Navy destroyers, at 300 psi (pounds per square inch). With a fuel capacity of 520 tons, it provides a range of 5,700 nautical miles at a speed of 15 knots. The tribal-level powerplant is quite reliable and is able to maintain high speeds for a long time,

However, due to the low temperature and pressure of boiler steam, its power and economy are still inferior compared to the new destroyers of other countries. The idea of adding another engine was thought of for this reason, but it was decided that it would increase the overall length of the warship by about 30 feet, which would greatly increase the displacement. The final design has been designed to meet the 1,850-ton displacement limit of the treaty as much as possible.

The Norwegian campaign of 1940 showed that the tribal guns with only 40 degrees of elevation were inadequate, especially against dive bombers, and the shortcomings of light anti-aircraft weapons were all exposed: the quadruple 12.7 mm machine gun was very unreliable in actual combat, and the range and power were very small, and the disadvantage of the quadruple two-pounder gun was that the firing range was too short, and its rate of fire was still insufficient against high-speed monoplanes. Based on the experience gained during the Norwegian campaign and Dunkirk, the Clan class gradually replaced the 4.7-inch twin main gun in the X-position with a twin-mounted 4-inch Mk XIX gun, which had a maximum elevation angle of 80 degrees and proved to be a fairly effective weapon in long-range air defense. In order to provide a better range of fire for the light anti-aircraft guns, the rear chimney was truncated by 4 feet, and the original triangular mast was replaced with a short mast. At the same time, new anti-aircraft armaments began to be installed at the tribal level. Beginning in 1941, single-barreled 20-mm Oligon-mounted machine guns were installed on both wings of the bridge, and later the 4-mounted machine guns in the middle of the ship were also replaced by 20-mm guns, and as the war progressed, the single-mounted 20-mm guns were replaced by twin guns. Before the end of the war, the popular 40-mm Bofors gun also appeared at the tribal level.

Such backward equipment could not be compared with the advanced equipment of the Northern Army, and Li Ming then ordered that these materials must be modified and upgraded before they could be put into use, and in this battle, the special combat team was ordered to intercept five destroyers。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。 More than 3,000 British naval 。。。。。。。。 were captured
