Night naval warfare is a very difficult subject, before the advent of night vision devices, night warfare was avoided by all countries and all types of armies, even if they had to do so, they would try to make the light as bright as possible. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info??

Night combat can be called a troop killer, that is, it can kill the enemy, but it can also kill and injure itself, but when the weak in the war faces the strong side, they can only rely on night battles to sneak attack the enemy, for example, our army is better at fighting night battles, this is actually not that our army is better at fighting, but the little devils are too bad at fighting night battles, in other words, the equipment advantages of the little devils in night battles cannot be waved, and they only appear when you walk in front of you, then it is already too late.

It is equivalent to the devil minus one in terms of combat effectiveness, but the gap is still there, and the casualty ratio is still higher than that of our army, but compared with the daytime, the casualty ratio of night battles will be much smaller, because the casualties in daytime combat are too great, and you can feel scary when you say it.

Night vision device, exchanging Zeiss lens technology with Germany, in fact, is to study night vision devices and high-power lenses, but very helpless, so many years have passed, researchers have just figured out the principle of quadruple lens, and upgraded it, just made a six-fold lens, but it is still testing, night vision devices or something, not to mention, everyone's eyes are black, even the most basic principle is not known, and Wang Sirui only knows that it relies on infrared to reflect, but how to do it, what is infrared? There's nothing he can do about it.

While Heihachiro Togo was still silently waiting for the arrival of eight o'clock, on the channel outside the port of Okinawa, a group of troop carriers that had been on the run for a whole afternoon had just arrived here, but they encountered even more serious problems.

The channel into the port of Okinawa is covered with dozens of mines, large and small, and each mine is almost 100 meters apart, and only about a quarter of its body is floating on the sea, and the entire minefield has completely blocked the passage into the port of Okinawa.

Rear Admiral Teragaki Izo stood on the bridge of the battleship Shikishima, looking at the dense minefield ahead, his scalp couldn't help but feel numb, so many mines, covering almost the entire channel, although the mines moved a little distance because of the ocean current, but the distance moved was almost negligible, and the ship had to be careful and careful when passing, and if it was not careful, it would cause a catastrophe.

Either a mine or a reef, and entering the port of Okinawa under such circumstances is not a good thing for them, because the outside is full of mines, and it is a problem for ships to enter, and once the enemy ships bomb outside the port at this time, then the port of Okinawa will instantly become a sea of fire.

In addition, the port of Okinawa is not so big, it is simply not able to support so many ships to enter the dock, but it is obviously impossible for them to keep these ships outside the port, so after entering, it is necessary to have one ship next to another, and these ships are enough to fill all the waters in the port, just like a fishing boat hiding from a typhoon entering the port, each ship is closely connected.

If there is no enemy attacking, then it is okay, but when the enemy comes, they can't escape. Of course, before considering this issue, Teragaki Inozo first had to consider how the fleet should enter the port of Okinawa.

"Your Excellency General, Sato Shaoza just took a look, the channel is almost full of mines, and it is difficult for the fleet to pass normally."

"Yaga...... How do the Chinese know the specific shipping lane? Do they still have charts from decades ago? Major General Teragaki Pig scolded angrily.

It is not uncommon for Chinese to have information about the shipping route of Okinawa Port, because for hundreds of years before, Okinawa was a subject country of the Qing State, and the Qing State also sent troops here, so it is not difficult to know this shipping lane. But that was more than ten years ago, and the Qing Dynasty at that time has long since disappeared, will the charts of that year still be preserved to this day? But even if it can be preserved until now, no one has ever been here in the current Chinese navy, so how can they be sure that this is the shipping lane?

"Your Excellency General, it should be the lighthouse that provides them with the coordinates."

"Lighthouse! Bastard! Major General Teragaki Inozo was angry again, it was really fucking not enough to fail, looking at the lighthouse that was as shining as a star, Teragaki Inozo suddenly had the idea of wanting to order the main gun to kill it, it was too fucking annoying.

'......Boom'

A violent explosion suddenly came, and Major General Teragaki Zhusan turned around sharply and looked in the direction where the sound came from, only to see a piece of fire rushing into the sky, illuminating the nearby sea, and a troop carrier was instantly broken into two sections, and then sank with lightning speed.

These troop carriers are all made of wood, and the slightly better ones are only wrapped in a layer of iron, not to mention that this kind of ship is under torpedo attack, that is, a 1o5 mm main gun hits below the waterline, this ship is basically goodbye, and the main guns above the caliber of 2oo mm can even directly break these troop carriers into pieces.

The soldiers of the 6th Army on the troop carrier were killed and wounded in an instant, crying everywhere, some jumped directly into the water, some were stupidly paralyzed on the troop carrier that was about to sink, letting the swaying troop carrier fiddle with their bodies, and some smart, uninjured soldiers of the 6th Army were quickly looking for things like plank lifebuoys, and then jumped into the sea with these things, and then began to wave their imagination and swim desperately into the distance.

Because of the suddenness of the incident, and the Japanese 6th Army, which had been on the boat for almost two days, was already dizzy, and many soldiers of the 6th Army were seasick.

What's even worse is that because the torpedoes in front appeared in a relatively timely manner, so under the leadership of the warship, the fleet has stopped, and the Chinese Navy has not been seen for such a long time, which also makes Teragaki Zhusan a little relieved, but who the hell knows, Teragaki Zhusan, who just wanted to be proud, was slapped in the face by the Chinese Navy.

"Quick, move quickly, don't stop there anymore, order all ships, turn off the lights, and no light will appear on the ship." Teragaki Inozo immediately ordered.

Because it was too much to take for granted, Teragaki Inozo did not order the light control, and the troop carriers were mostly civilian ships, and these people did not undergo strict militarized training, and under normal circumstances, after dark, no matter where they were, they would choose to anchor and rest, and then the lights would be on for a long time, reminding passing ships not to collide.

Although there are basically no boats passing by at night, because everyone stops to rest. Rushing at night is no different from suicide, and it is also very easy to get lost, in this era without a positioning system, no communication system, getting lost on the sea, the result can only be resigned to fate.

As for turning off the lights and driving at night, even the army fleet could not do this without a few years of training, and even a veteran and captain with a lot of seafaring experience sometimes stumbled, let alone dodged the enemy's attack.

At this time, it's basically running around, and it doesn't matter where you can go, but it's not on the waterway, who the fuck dares to run around in a boat? What should I do if I hit a rock? As for their small wooden boats, once they hit the reef at night, they would wait to sink, and they would not even have a chance to remedy it.

The brightly lit troop carrier formation provided the greatest convenience for the destroyer formation lying in ambush around, like an automatic locking system, the six destroyers hardly had to move, and only needed to slightly adjust the angle of the torpedo firing pipes to attack.

The layout of the 2211 is that as long as the warship comes sideways, it can ensure that at least three torpedoes can be fired at one time, and in order to improve the firing efficiency, the warship is also constantly spinning in place, and the degree of rotation is not fast, almost every five minutes, it can just ensure that it can shoot a round of torpedoes every five minutes.

Because of the large number of Japanese troop carrier formations, there are hundreds of large and small troop carriers alone, and now they are crowded together, and when the formation was not chaotic before, they had to aim and shoot again, but now they almost don't even need to aim, and there is a great possibility of hitting the opponent if they throw one casually.

Coupled with the slow degree of the troop carrier, running around in a small space, there were even a few troop carriers that collided directly with each other because of tension or other reasons, although the ship did not sink, but the ship part was also disfigured by the collision.

A feast of slaughter is being staged, the hit rate of torpedoes is surprisingly high, the troop carriers are temporarily captured, and they do not have the skills to dodge torpedoes, so let ordinary fishermen, cargo seamen dodge torpedoes, this is like letting farmers go to war, and the result is naturally self-evident.

For a time, the troop carriers that were hit were one after another, and some troop carriers because they had no sense of war, after being hit, when the ships had not completely lost control, they did not move the ships to one side in time to give way to the channel, and as a result, several unlucky troop carriers could only make a detour, but they accidentally ran out of the channel, and as a result, they directly hit the reef on the bottom of the sea, and a large amount of seawater entered the cabin, and after a short while, the entire cabin was filled, and these ships also began to tilt and sink.

But fortunately, there are reefs in front of them, and although these troop carriers have hit the reef and are also facing the danger of sinking, because they are close to the shore and the sea water is not too deep, they are not completely sunk, and more than half of the soldiers of the 6th Army on the troop carriers have survived.

But they just survived, and no one came to save them at this time, and they didn't know how long they would stay here, and whether the other party would rush over and kill them?

"Yaga, turn on the lights, search for the enemy's location, and be sure to kill them." Teragaki Zhuzo calmed down for about ten minutes, and then ordered the warship to turn on the lights to search for the enemy ship, the light control can indeed help them avoid the attack, but the troop carrier has been in a mess, and they can't go if they want to, at this time the role of light control has been lost, and the warship must also turn on the lights to find the opponent, otherwise none of the ships here can run.
