Under the protection of the special operations detachment, Yang Xingguo rushed to Liaodong in less than a day and a night. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Perhaps it was because Chief of Staff Sun Liechen confessed that when there were still nearly 20 kilometers away from Yingkou, no matter how Yang Xingguo gave the order, Zhang Shanlin refused to continue to advance.

"That's it, let's build a headquarters here, immediately contact Navy Commander Chen Jiliang, Deputy Commander Li Jie, and Heavy Artillery Division Commander, and come here for a meeting immediately, I want to know the latest situation of the Devil Navy!" Looking at Zhang Shanlin, who had never compromised in front of him, Yang Xingguo could only order helplessly.

As soon as the special operations detachment had set up its headquarters, Chen Jiliang and several people rushed over one after another.

Looking at the subordinates in front of him who were still panting, Yang Xingguo really wanted to let them rest.

But now it has been less than ten hours since the bombardment of the devil navy, and if you delay here for one more minute, maybe dozens or hundreds of people will die because of this.

Therefore, as soon as a few people arrived, Yang Xingguo asked Chen Jiliang: "How is the evacuation in the direction of Yingkou?" ”

"Your fleet, shipyards, docks, and Yingkou are definitely the targets of the first round of shelling by the devils."

Chen Jiliang hurriedly replied: "The people at the wharf and Yingkou are almost the same, with the assistance of the Yingkou garrison regiment, the evacuation speed is very fast. The shipyard is a little slower, after all, there is a lot of equipment in it, and it is very difficult to transfer. The fleet, as long as the ships that could fight, were transferred together with the merchant ships last night, and now all of them are docked in a bay less than fifty nautical miles from Yingkou. ”

"That's good!" Yang Xingguo said after breathing a sigh of relief.

Seeing that Yang Xingguo didn't mention a counterattack, Navy Commander Chen Jiliang couldn't help but ask: "Marshal, aren't we going to fight back this time, watching Yingkou and the dock being blown into ruins by the devil navy." ”

"The devil navy has bullied us to our doorstep, if we don't even fight back, as the commander of the navy, I don't have the face to go back to see the people of Yingkou, for fear that they will poke the backbone of our navy."

Deputy Commander Li Jie followed: "Marshal, the navy has disappointed the people too many times. Now that the devils have hit the doorstep, if the navy does not stand up and fight back, then the navy will completely disappoint the people. ”

Yang Xingguo also wanted to fight back, but the strength of the devil's navy was there, even if he took out all the naval fleets he captured twice before and after and carried it with the devil, it would not be an opponent.

More importantly, there is no shadow of the submarine force in Yang Xingguo's heart to deal with the devil navy, and in this case, Yang Xingguo really can't think of any other way to fight the devil navy fleet.

Seeing the two of them sad and angry, Yang Xingguo couldn't dampen their enthusiasm. Although from their own point of view, the Liaodong Army has no way to crack the devil navy for the time being. But Yang Xingguo still asked the two of them rhetorically with a glimmer of hope.

"As long as you have a good way, I don't have any problems here, and I will definitely support you unconditionally."

Chen Jiliang and Li Jie were silent in an instant, and in the face of absolute strength, the two of them did not have any solution.

At this time, Li Jie, who was born as an artilleryman, couldn't help but burst out with a foul sentence: "****, it's a big deal to fight with devils." ”

"Leave the best few warships behind and fight with the remaining old warships. Twenty or thirty old warships, no matter how ineffective they are. It can also spell out a few warships of the Devil Navy. ”

At this time, Chen Jiliang, who was frowning and not saying a word, suddenly brightened up and said: "Dashuai, this method is feasible, but we have to change the strategy and change the hard fight to a sneak attack." Take advantage of the gap between the devil's navy to bombard our docks and Yingkou as close as possible to their fleet, and then suddenly attack. In this case, I am confident that I will use thirty old warships to spell out ten warships of the Devil Navy. ”

"Naval sneak attack? Commander Chen, how sure are you that you are approaching the devil fleet! Yang Xingguo was also moved, if he could really use thirty old warships to fight out the devil's ten warships, it would definitely be very cost-effective.

Anyway, even if these old warships are not spelled out, they will be completely eliminated in a few years. Besides, these warships were all captured by the imperial court and the Japanese, and even if they were all thrown into the sea, the Liaodong Army would have no losses.

Chen Jiliang thought for almost a minute and then replied: "Eighty percent, I am eighty percent sure that I will drive the warship to a position five nautical miles away from the devil's fleet, and then suddenly launch an attack." ”

With a displacement of thousands of tons, and it is also a warship that is about to be eliminated, Chen Jiliang is sure that he can drive the warship to five nautical miles away from the devil's fleet, so if these old fleets are replaced with torpedo boats with smaller tonnage, faster speed, and more advanced, will it be able to directly touch the devil's fleet?

Not to mention, as long as ten torpedo boats touched a nautical mile away from the devil's fleet, and then suddenly released twenty torpedoes. That blow to the devil's fleet was absolutely devastating.

Thinking of this, a serial plan quickly appeared in Yang Xingguo's mind. The face full of helplessness also slowly revealed a trace of expectation.

Then he continued to ask Chen Jiliang: "Commander Chen, if I remember correctly, from the beginning of the formation of the navy, I explained that the current development direction of the navy is to form an offshore torpedo boat brigade, and after the establishment of the shipyard, I specifically asked the shipyard to build torpedo boats, in addition to maintenance, the shipyard's primary task is to build torpedo boats!" ”

"The torpedo boat has a short construction period and can quickly form combat effectiveness, so it should already have a large scale now, right?"

Chen Jiliang immediately replied: "Marshal, the torpedo boat brigade has now formed two squadrons and 18 torpedo boats, of which six torpedo boats were purchased from Germany using the navy's surplus military funds, and the remaining 12 were delivered to us by our own shipyard in half a year. Because a torpedo boat only needs a dozen officers and men, it can quickly form combat effectiveness. Now two squadrons can already take part in the battle. ”

Yang Xingguo was very satisfied with this result, because with the torpedo boat, it meant that the plan in his heart had greater hope to become a reality.

"Yes, since there are two squadrons of eighteen torpedo boats that can take part in the battle, then here I have a much bolder plan in mind. One is not good, it is possible to wipe out all the detachments of devils parked in the open sea? ”

What does Chen Jiliang seem to realize? With a look of disbelief, he asked, "Commander, are you planning to attack the devil detachment with eighteen torpedo boats?" How can it be! Eighteen torpedo boats, which sounds like a lot, but the devil's dozens of warships are all combined, and as long as two or three salvos are fired, all our torpedo boats can be reimbursed. ”

"A strong attack is definitely not good, my idea is a sneak attack! And it's also a serial sneak attack. ”

"Tonight is the last time given to us by the devils, and when the time comes, the devils will definitely shell it. In the beginning, the devil will definitely be very cautious. But I'm sure that this caution won't last long. In the second half of the night, the devils will definitely completely relax, and then it will be the best opportunity for us to carry out a series of sneak attacks on the devils. (To be continued.) )
