With a surface displacement of 2,500 tons and an underwater displacement of 300 tons, the Weiyueyan class has a total length of 90 meters and a width of 9 meters, and can accommodate 40 guided torpedoes or 23 torpedoes and 12 mines at the same time - 1-

There are 6 torpedo tubes in the bow, and thanks to a special hydraulic torpedo system, the torpedo assembly time is shorter (18 torpedoes can be fired in 20 minutes) and the torpedo rate of fire is faster.

In addition, thanks to the latest powertrain, the top speed of the Wild Moon Swallow is 15.6 knots (diesel engine) and 17.9 knots with an electric motor. As for the underwater speed, it also reached the level of 12.7 knots.

This situation is also due to the fact that Wei Yueyan is completely designed for underwater warfare, rather than a submarine that has been submerged to attack and evade attacks from surface ships. In particular, the simplification of the hull and the streamlined structure have increased the speed of the Weiyueyan class.

In addition, due to the large displacement, the interior of the Weiyueyan-class is very spacious, rather than as small as ordinary submarines, which makes people almost breathless. The crew can also get a fuller rest in the submarine and exert their combat effectiveness stronger than other submarines.

Therefore, in this era, the Dangerous Moon Swallow class is definitely the strongest submarine that deserves to be.

This is especially true when paired with a sufficient number of guided torpedoes, it's just a pity ...

"It's a pity..."

Looking at at the Japanese ships that were at least half smoking on the sea, Liu Yun sighed.

Although Wei Yueyan's performance is very strong, he is just a submarine after all. It is not possible to reach the designated theater of operations in a very short time, like an airplane.

Although the information that the Japanese were preparing to withdraw to Australia came quickly, and the route was quickly determined, it was still impossible to transport a sufficient number of Weiyueyan-class submarines from China to the Indian Ocean in a short period of time.

Therefore, in the end, if there is no way, the navy can only order more than a dozen Weiyueyan-class ships that are carrying out operations in Philippine waters to pass through the Strait of Malacca and go to the Indian Ocean waters for ambush...

Originally, it was nothing to do this, the key was that during the operation, these more than ten Dangerous Moon Swallow-class ships were too active, and the Dangerous Moon Swallow-class was not only carrying out hunting missions. In many cases, they also had to go to the ports of the Japanese army to carry out mine-laying tasks.

Therefore, inside the naval bases of the Philippines, there is not much of a number of guided torpedoes.

In the end, they had no choice but to follow the usual configuration. With 23 torpedoes and 12 mines sorted.

If all 40 torpedoes were brought with them, and 6 torpedo tubes were added for a total of 46 torpedoes, perhaps Liu Yun's submarine formation would have been able to sink all the Japanese ships on the sea and let them really die at the bottom of the sea.

But now. Liu Yun could only watch little by little as the torpedo reserves became smaller and smaller...

————————————————————

When Liu Yun's Sea Wolf force used up all the ammunition, the original transport fleet consisting of more than 20 warships and transport ships on the sea was still able to float in good condition, and there were only a few left...

The rest were either deeply wounded or sunk to the bottom of the sea.

Correspondingly, only two Wei Yueyan-class submarines on Liu Yun's side were caught by the Japanese escort ships. And was sunk by the Japanese depth charges ...

Although two submarines were sunk, these losses were insignificant compared to the losses of the Japanese.

This time, even if the Japanese did not sink two divisions, they would have lost at least one division.

But having said that, the power of the wire-guided torpedo was indeed beyond the expectations of Liu Yun and others.

Unlike the direct-sailing torpedoes of the past, as well as the acoustic self-guided torpedoes that shone in the Philippine naval battle some time ago, the hit rate of the line-guided torpedo is obviously much higher.

Especially in terms of anti-jamming, the noise jammers newly equipped by the Japanese did not play any role at all. …,

"Let's go. Back to base. I'll leave the rest to the next wave of people..."

After finally taking a look at the sea surface with a periscope, Liu Yun said to Qi Lin.

"Yes!"

When Liu Yun and others left the sea area, the Japanese were still patrolling and searching and rescuing on the sea.

But it was at this time that a large number of undersea creatures appeared...

"Shark !!"

Shark is a generic name for a group of plate-gill fish, which belongs to a branch of cartilaginous fish. It is an ancient fish that first appeared in the Silurian period 420 million years ago. So far, about 440 different species have evolved, including about 5 orders and 20 families (due to disagreement among taxonomists). They have a highly streamlined and swimmer-friendly appearance. The whole body is covered with shield scales, which protect sharks from injury or parasitism. It also improves their hydrodynamics and allows them to swim faster. There are 57 gill slits on the side of the shark's body that are used for breathing. They have several sets of replaceable teeth. Sharks are apex predators in the aquatic food chain, with different species having different foods, some are carnivorous, can devour seals, turtles and even people, and some only filter feed on plankton; The large body is up to 20 meters long, and the small one is only more than 10 centimeters.

Sharks have sensitive sensory organs and can even smell blood from several kilometers away. They have the ability to sense electricity, which allows them to spot prey hiding beneath the sand.

There are also sharks that can move in both marine and freshwater at the same time, such as bull sharks.

This time, the Japanese provoked the bull shark...

The bull shark, also known as the white shark or bull whiteeye shark, is a shark commonly found in warm and shallow coastal waters in Africa and Nicaragua, respectively. The most distinctive thing about the bull shark is its unpredictable (and generally aggressive) behavior.

Unlike other sea sharks, bull sharks can move in freshwater. They can be found in rivers. As a result, they are almost always responsible for nearshore attacks on humans, including many cases that are thought to have been caused by other species.

The bull shark gets its name from its stocky size, flat snout and unpredictable aggressive behavior. In India, the bull shark is commonly known as the Sundarbans or Ganges shark and is a delicacy of Bengal fish curry.

Bull sharks are common in coastal areas of warm oceans, rivers and lakes, and in both freshwater and saltwater. In the Atlantic, they can be found from Massachusetts in the United States to southern Brazil and from Morocco to Angola. In the Indian Ocean, they are found from South Africa to Kenya, India, and Vietnam to Australia.

Bull sharks can behave docile but can suddenly get excited, they are highly aggressive, and even attack racehorses on the Brisbane River in Queensland, Australia. They are extremely regional and will attack other invasive creatures. Including humans. The bull shark is the four most dangerous sharks, along with the great white shark, the weasel shark and the pelagic whitetip shark. In 1916, a shark attack occurred in Matawang, and it was initially thought that the great white shark was the main culprit. The film Jaws was later filmed, but it seems to have been caused by one or more bull sharks.

At the same time, many experts believe that the bull shark is the culprit of many fatalities in Port Jackson, and most of these cases are believed to be caused by great white sharks. In India, bull sharks live in the Ganges River. They also kill and injure a large number of lives, and they also eat the dead bodies of Indians placed on the river.

This time, these vicious sharks, which usually appear in the waters off India...

"Shoot, shoot!!"

I saw sharks one by one because of the smell of blood, and began to attack the Japanese soldiers who fell into the water. The Japanese soldiers on the boats that were still able to float began to shout loudly...

Soon, a dense burst of gunfire rang out on the sea.

Although it was heavily damaged by Liu Yun and his party, even the troop carrier had certain self-defense weapons. Moreover, although the heavy equipment was loaded on separate ships, individual weapons such as rifles were carried with them. …,

However, after entering the water, weapons such as rifles are sharply reduced in lethality, and machine guns such as the Phalanx of later generations are basically lethal after entering the water at a depth of 10 meters. Not to mention weapons like the 38 Big Gai, but fortunately, if the shark wants to attack people, it always has to surface.

And the Japanese soldiers on board. It's also an opportunity to shoot these damn sharks...

————————————————————

What Liu Yun didn't know was. Although he eliminated a considerable number of Japanese troops this time, it was only one division at most, and the rest were almost all weapons and equipment, and there was...

That is, methamphetamine, which has a slightly bitter taste and is white or colorless. It is crystalline or powdery, soluble in water. The purity is as high as 95% or more, and it is a synthetic stimulant. It belongs to the phenylethylamine class. It can cause the body to produce intense pleasure. and addictive. This substance exhibits enantiomer phenomena, which are left-handed and right-handed, respectively.

It was first synthesized in Japan in 1919 by Nagayoshi Nagashi, a chemist, and it is the product of ephedrine reduction by red phosphorus and iodine.

It is very similar to the chemical structure of amphetamines. Amphetamine was first successfully synthesized by the Romanian chemist Lazar Edeleanu in 1887. In modern times, the use and social evaluation of amphetamines has changed from contemptuous to controversial to disliked.

During World War II, the Allies and the Axis powers were distributed to the front under the registered name Pervitin1, and the Nazis distributed it to soldiers for doping purposes, especially the SS and the Wehrmacht during the Soviet-German War. Hitler also injected methamphetamine, and Japan also gave methamphetamine to soldiers to improve their combat effectiveness.

In 1962, methamphetamine was first made as an illegal drug by motorcycle gangs in San Francisco and distributed across the Pacific coast of the United States. The gang soon had a large number of imitators: the raw materials needed were very ordinary and readily available, such as rubbing alcohol, lye, ephedrine, and pseudoephedrine; The last one was available over-the-counter at the time. As a result, workshop-style laboratories have produced a large number of illegal .

Mexican gangsters brought a lot of cheap goods into Mexico. "Ice", or crystals that can be put into a catheter and sucked, appeared in Hawaii in the 80s of the 20th century and soon spread to the continental United States, becoming the most popular type of drug. By 1980, there had been a surge in non-medical use. Among them, San Diego, California, is known as the "mecca of ice" in North America.

Liu Yun: The few warships they sank were loaded with these things...

In fact, if it weren't for the help of those sharks, Liu Yun and they might not even be able to wipe out a division...

————————————————————

The news of the attack on the troop carrier fleet was soon reported back to Japan.

However, the news sent back by the captains of the attacked fleet was that the Chinese Navy had used a new type of torpedo, and there was no mention of the wire-guided torpedo—————— which is not surprising, the torpedo exploded after hitting it, and what could be left of the exploded torpedo? Naturally, it was impossible for the Japanese to distinguish whether it was an acoustic self-guided torpedo or a wire-guided torpedo that exploded.

On the other hand, when Liu Yun's fleet returned to the Philippines, a new submarine force also arrived in Indian waters. Waiting for new prey to appear.

At the same time, the Communist government signed a treaty with Britain that decided the future fate of India—————— Sino-British Treaty of India...

According to the treaty. India will be divided into seven independent states, including Pakistan and Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka will not be included. At the same time, there are many bits and pieces of agreements that exist.

And in order to be able to get Britain to agree to this. The Nationalist government also made many concessions.

For example, the commitment not to station troops in any of the seven countries of India, and to allow these seven countries to remain in the Commonwealth countries, ......etc.,

Yan Guang didn't attach much importance to these, so he nodded and agreed.

After all, for Yan Guang, the most important thing is to eliminate the threat posed by India in the future. India, which is divided into seven parts, is obviously unlikely to pose any threat to China.

As for not garrisoning troops and the Commonwealth or something?

When the time comes, won't it be up to you to decide whether to garrison or not? What's more, as long as Sri Lanka is in control, it doesn't matter if you don't have troops in India.

And if it's really a garrison, it's good to be stationed directly. When it came to the Suez Canal, didn't Britain and France also want to interfere? As a result, the United States and the Soviet Union said a word, and they didn't leave in disgrace?

In addition, the Commonwealth or something, in later generations Australia and Canada were also Commonwealth countries. The problem is that after the twenty-first century, they are not so much Commonwealth countries. It would be more accurate to say that they are a 'American' federal country.

In later generations, Australia became a close ally of the United States. Canada wears almost the same pants as the United States. As for the overlord of the United Kingdom? Later, it was only on the same level as the two former colonies.

If it weren't for the fact that Britain could still play the role of a European-stirring stick and at the same time have a role in the United Nations, perhaps Britain would not be as good as Canada and Australia in the eyes of the United States...

Therefore, it is nothing to promise those seven new countries to stay in the Commonwealth, anyway, these seven countries are under their noses, and it will be good to have a little influence when the time comes. And something like the Commonwealth. Just like the EU, can it be added and returned?

Wait for five or six years. At the end of World War II, let these seven countries withdraw from the British Commonwealth. Joining the China Alliance is that...

On the other hand, Churchill was not unaware of this, but he was sure that he would put the United States on his side after the war...

In 1946, after World War II, Churchill visited the United States.

During that visit, he delivered the famous Iron Curtain Speech at Westminster College in Missouri. "From Szczecin on the Baltic Sea to Trieste on the Adriatic Sea, an iron curtain was pulled down across the continent."

The speech was slammed by the media at the time, because relations between the Soviet Union and the West had not yet broken down, and many people saw Churchill as a warmonger. But what about today? In the end, the United States did not side with Britain.

The same is true now, although China and its allies are still allies, and relations are not at the point of breakdown. Churchill was well aware that when the war ended, China would cause great friction with the main members of the allies.

The simple reason is that China has so many benefits in this war, and many of them are from its allies.

For example, French Indochina in France, the Philippines and Hawaii in the United States, Indonesia in the Netherlands, the Malay Peninsula in the United Kingdom, India and Myanmar and Hong Kong...

These places originally belonged to Britain, France, the United States and other countries, but now they have become China's sphere of influence...

Now is the time of the war, and the allies will naturally not contradict their allies first, but what about waiting until the war is over? Are the member states of the allies willing to have their interests usurped by another country?

By that time, Churchill would naturally have the certainty of drawing the United States over to his side.

In fact, as Germany began to retreat step by step into its own territory, Churchill began to consider the question of restoring German power after the war.

If it weren't for the fact that Russia was a 'hammer and sickle' country, Churchill would have even considered whether to bring Russia in to contain China by the way.

It's just that Churchill's aversion to 'hammer and sickle' is even greater than that of China, so this is naturally an idea that cannot be done...

In any case, the Sino-British Treaty of India was eventually signed in Beijing, and it was determined that India would be divided into seven countries after the war.

Although many Indians believe that India should be a unified country, there are also many Indians who are not interested in the current India.

On the other hand, when the news of the signing of the treaty broke, Gandhi, who had been entrenched in Beijing for a long time, looked at the sky from the outside of the signing venue.

Although the sky in Beijing is very blue in the eyes of passers-by, it is gray in the eyes of Gandhi... (To be continued......)
