Chapter 422: A New Fleet

At the beginning of March, the water began to thaw, and the ice was flowing down the river, but there was still a lot of thick ice on the bank.

In Liaohe Port, the Governor of the Bohai Fleet and Dong Maru faced the cold wind, and their eyes were staring at the sea.

"Yuan Chuanxun is coming, why is it almost dark, and there is no movement?" Bajin was a little anxious, everything he had was built on the basis of Yang Xi's existence.

Dong Pill said: "Don't worry, Yuan has its own arrangements, and it will not arrive until night, so there is a reason for it to go into the night, you and I will wait." ”

Bajin then said no more, and ordered the personal guard battalion to guard the various intersections and not allow anyone to approach this place.

This is the secret harbor that Yang Xi asked Bajin and Dong Pill to find, and I don't know what Yang Xi's intentions are.

"Ahem! Ahem! After waiting for another two hours, Dong Maru had already begun to cough.

"Go! He Siding! Bring a coat to Governor Dong, don't give the whole typhoid fever. Bajin instructed the battalion commander of his personal guard.

He Siding gave a military salute, and then ran away with a smoke, and his action was extremely fast, only three minutes, and he brought two pieces of rice.

Dong Pill was draped in eight catties and ordered someone to light a torch. As soon as the torches were lit, they saw what seemed to be a flash of white light on the sea, and then disappeared again.

"Am I dazzled, I'm really going to get typhoid fever!" Dong Maru coughed twice more and rubbed his eyes.

Bajin said: "It's not dazzling, there is really white light, I saw it just now, He Siding, did you see it?" ”

"Report to the Commander! Just now, there seemed to be a flash of white light, like a pillar of light, shooting from the surface of the sea, I think, it should be half a second! ”

The guards all agreed, and they really saw the pillar of light.

Everyone was puzzled and began to discuss whether this was a ghost light or something, because it was impossible for torches to form pillars of light.

After a few minutes, another pillar of light shone on, this time it was not a pillar of light, it was faint in the distant sea, and it seemed that dozens of pillars of light shot towards the shore.

Bajin has been in war for a long time, and there have been no less than 20 times of large and small water battles, and when he encounters this kind of weirdness, the first time he is to order the whole army to be vigilant.

"Guard Battalion! Get ready to meet the enemy! He Siding! Take my binoculars! ”

He Siding had already prepared and handed over the telescope.

Bajin put the telescope in front of his eyes and took a closer look, but saw that the pillar of light was actually shot out from some big ships, and the big ships, there were ten, the whole body was silver-gray, even the moonlight was hazy, and he could see it clearly.

"It's Yuan! Definitely meta! New Battleships! It's a new type of battleship! No wonder the meta had to wait until the evening to appear, it turned out to be hidden. ”

Dong Maru couldn't wait to take a telescope as well, and when he looked around, he saw that ten battleships were getting closer, one in the middle was about the same as the Yangtze River, and there were nine next to it, but they were much smaller.

"Why are the new warships so small, the big ones are worse than the Yangtze River, and the small ones are not much bigger than the Chenhe!"

Dong Maru was puzzled.

But then, Dong Maru and Bajin both had straight eyes.

"This degree? Oh my! Is this flying! "Eight pounds were shocked.

Dong Pill coughed directly, and it was a violent cough.

Dong Maru knew that he had a cold, and he didn't read less books from the medical school.

"I have a new bezoar detoxification tablet this year, you take one first, clear the heat and disinfect." Eight catties handed over a Xiaoyao pill.

Dong Pill took it, and handed over the water and medicine left and right.

At such a short time, the ten battleships were already approaching the ferry, and their degrees were reduced.

The lights on the battleship dimmed, and Bajin and the others didn't think much about what the yellowish pillar of light was, in short, Yang Xi appeared, and nothing strange was strange.

Half an hour later, Bajin and Dong Maru arrived on the battleship.

Yang Xi explained to them the strength of this new warship.

"This capital ship, with the strength of our shipyard for a year and a half, has only produced one, don't underestimate him, the volume is not large, the length is only one hundred and ninety-six meters, it is not as good as the Chenhe, but think about it, the main body below the deck of this ship is all carbon steel and alloy steel, without a single piece of wood, without any bloated parts. And the power compartment does not need to be stepped on by manpower, how much more space is there? The displacement of the Yangtze River is only a few hundred tons, do you know how much the displacement of this capital ship is, 5,000 tons! Ha ha! ”

Bajin was directly dumbfounded.

Yang Xi talked about nine frigates again.

"The nine frigates are all seventy meters long, eleven meters wide, and eight meters deep, which is only 1,400 tons of displacement, which is faster than the capital ship, and the pole should be 200 kilometers per hour, which is more than five times the pole of the Chenhe ship."

"What? Two hundred kilometers? Childe, Yuan, you're not kidding! Eight catties didn't believe it directly.

"Trick you into defeating Cao Cao's Liaoxi fleet? Soil leopard, eight catties, you just listen, tomorrow, this fleet, you are the commander-in-chief, as for those ships, all of them will be dismantled by artillery fire, converted into merchant ships, and sold to various trading houses! ”

No one can scold Bajin, only Yang Xi can, Dong Ma secretly spoke, Yang Xi almost slapped him on the head, Bajin took advantage of Yang Xi's turn of his head, and stuck out his tongue at Dong Ma in embarrassment.

Dong Pill smiled secretly, you don't believe in Gongzi, you deserve to be unlucky.

"Speaking of artillery fire, you come with me."

Walking along the deck to the bow of the ship, Yang Xi opened a steel door, only to see a long-barreled cannon inside, the base fixed to the steel plate of the deck.

"This is the main gun of the capital ship, one hundred and fifty mm caliber, with a maximum firing range of ten kilometers. There is an optical sight with an error of three meters for ten kilometers and a maximum of one meter for five kilometers. The gunners were protected by bulwarks, and the capital ship was equipped with five main guns, protected by a three-centimeter stainless steel shield, and fired once a minute. In addition, it is equipped with 10 40-mm guns, which are located on both sides of the bridge and on both sides of the engine room, and shoot 10 times a minute, but the maximum range can only reach 5 kilometers. ”

"This is the capital ship, the configuration of the frigate is slightly lower than that of the capital ship, there are only two main guns and five guns each, but as soon as these are opened, as long as they don't die, Cao Cao will drive a thousand old-fashioned old ships, which is also a dead word!"

This time, Dong Maru was not calm.

Ten kilometers of the firing range of the main gun? Shoot artillery for five kilometers? Still a minute ten? Is this a joke?

Ten kilometers with an error of three meters? Five kilometers with an error of one meter? That's within five kilometers, a dozen and one accurate!

A series of question marks appeared in the minds of the two.

"Don't be stunned, continue to follow me, I'll explain to you that it's only this night, fleet personnel, I've already trained you, you can learn the operation slowly, now you only need to command."

Yang Xi continued to lead the two of them to the front control room.

"This is an electrolyte battery, each ship is equipped with a sufficient amount, enough to use 2,000 hours, save some use, and at the end of the year I will improve the motor, you can be equipped with a diesel engine to drive the motor, then the ship has to be sent back to the shipyard for upgrading."

Originally, Yang Xi was not prepared to start the war so early, so he could wait a few months and improve the motor by himself. The motor is actually simpler than the diesel engine, but the important thing has to be done first, and the electricity can't be brought out first, and the locomotive and boat power are postponed.

Facts have proved that Yang Xi's decision was correct.

It's a pity that there is only one person after all, no matter how powerful he is, even if he works day and night, he can only make so much.

He had already worked hard, but the equipment was still not perfect, so the ship could only be temporarily equipped with flashlight lighting driven by electrolyte batteries, and each ship was equipped with ten, which could be taken care of in all directions.

As for the light bulb, it was easy to do, and it took Yang Xi a few days to make a light bulb filled with nitrogen.

Closed containers with a small amount of water to ignite the red scales, close the lid, it will produce solid phosphorus pentoxide, and most of the rest is nitrogen, so the incandescent bulb filled with nitrogen gas is available, which is very simple.

The light bulb filled with nitrogen has a longer service life than a vacuum, and Yang Xi is so happy that he doesn't want it.

Although Yang Xi thought it was simple, Dong Pill and the two of them were already shocked by him.
