[243] Battle of Hong Kong

Deng Shichang, commander of the North Sea Fleet, personally sat in the command boat of the First Fish # Mineboat Brigade.

After experiencing the naval battle at the mouth of the Yangtze River, he is now full of confidence, and now he has understood the meaning of the secret letter that Yao Fan gave him.

The previous sneak attack on the Iron Duke came from the No. 16004 Fish # Mineboat of the First Fish # Mineboat Brigade, in the number 16004, the first 1 is the number of the North Sea Fleet, 6 is the ship category number of the Fish # Mineboat, and 004 is the combat number of the ship in the Navy.

The sneak attack of the 16004 boat was very successful, the boat successfully launched a 533mm large-caliber fish # tordo at a distance of 3 kilometers from the Iron Duke, which was right on the stern of the Iron Duke, the flagship of the United Fleet.

Due to the full load displacement of the 026 Fish # Mineboat is less than 40 tons, the hull target is too small and painted gray, and the speed is ridiculously fast, so that the Iron Duke did not react until it was hit, and it was attacked by the enemy.

With the end of the Iron Duke, the first wave of attacks by the three brigades of Fish# Mineboats has also been completed, and the remaining 29 Fish# Mineboats have been successfully fired, like dolphins passing through the sea at high speed, sweeping towards the target at a speed of 1,500 meters per minute.

Due to the extremely short range of the castrated version of the 533mm Fish # Mine, the 2013 side did not set the front, middle and rear speed of the Fish # Mine, but unified it to a full power 50 knots impact state.

When this batch of fish # mines was castrated in the production plant under the 705 Institute of the Navy, the 705 Institute did not understand at all what strange country would ask # to buy such a batch of "waste fish # pedoes" that have neither wire control nor shielded radio guidance function, no wake tracking, only active sonar detection head, and a launch distance of less than 4 kilometers.

But since it is a foreign trade product, a real money-making project, everyone works hard to complete the task, in the final analysis, the rapid completion of 500 rounds of training ammunition and 1000 rounds of live ammunition production indicators is a big deal, as for foreigners to buy how to use, it is not a matter for us to worry about. However, it is widely speculated that this is probably bought by other countries to bomb the reef......

Although the best launch distance for this batch of Fish # Mines was built in 2013 was 3 kilometers, considering the tailgating of the clipper, the actual fuel range of this batch of Fish # Mines was more than 10 kilometers. Once the temporarily shielded radio guidance function on this batch of torpedoes is turned on, a launch attack from a distance of ten kilometers will not be a problem.

Even if the radio guidance function of this shield is not turned on, a sneak attack from 10 kilometers away, as long as the general direction of the torpedo # is correct, after the sonar is turned on at 4 kilometers, as long as the enemy ship is within the forward sector and can be searched, it will still be accurately locked.

However, in this way, the attack hit rate is certainly not as high as the optimal launch distance within 3 kilometers, but it is enough to ensure a 50 percent hit.

The sea off Hong Kong is burning.

All 29 fish # mines hit the target!

Despite the confusion due to the automatic locking of sonar, the situation of multiple missiles attacking one target, 29 Fish # torpedoes destroyed almost the entire United Fleet.

The 15 warships and 4 transports of the Royal Navy's East India Fleet, the 11 warships of the Far East Fleet of the French Third Republic, and the 35 freighters ranging from 220 tons to more than 1,000 tons of cargo ships of various trading companies and steamship companies in the Hong Kong colony have all been caught in the sea of fire.

As cursed by the British immigrants who failed to board and leave port, the Royal Navy went to hell with the French Far East Fleet and countless British merchants and their freighters laden with goods and goods.

The Battle of Hong Kong in the history of the Republic of China took place off the southeast coast of Lamma Island, so it was also called the Lamma Shipwreck and even the Lamma Massacre by some people in later generations.

The reason is that these people thought that the difference in strength at that time was too great, and compared with the North Sea Fleet, which was armed to the teeth, the old-fashioned fleet composed of these gunboats was completely slaughtered like a lamb in front of the wolf pack attack formation composed of 30 026 boats of the three Fish# Mineboat Brigades.

Deng Shichang commanded the command boat in the No. 15001 026 Fish # Mineboat:

"The second brigade and the third brigade listened to my order, and immediately dispersed and turned back after completing the first attack, and reorganized the formation in the predetermined sea area. Be sure to wipe out the remaining counterattack forces of the enemy fleet! ”

After Luo Fenglu, the captain of the second brigade, received the order, he shouted excitedly over the radio:

"All the officers and men of the Second Brigade of the North Sea Fleet of the Chinese Revolutionary Army Navy Fish # Mineboat Unit obey the order! For the republic! Assault!!! ”

As an outstanding graduate of the piloting class of the Fujian Shipbuilding School, Luo Fenglu was assigned to serve as the second pipe belt on the battleship as soon as he graduated, and when he was transferred out of the big ship and assigned to the fish # torpedo brigade, he also had a trouble and wanted to go home to farm. But the letter from his hometown immediately dispelled his thoughts, and he knew that it was because he was in the navy, and the Luo family, as a big family in Fuzhou, was pardoned as an enlightened gentry by the land reform working group, and was spared a knife in the neck of the patriarch of the family.

When Luo Fenglu really mastered the 026 Fish # Mineboat, he was no longer willing to return to the previous steam sail battleship.

During this time, he often boasted to his naval comrades-in-arms who were newly promoted to the captains of the steam sail warships: "Don't look at our small ships, but my brigade has ten ships, and each ship has no problem fighting two of you alone!"

My fish # thunder one shot left, one shot from the right, you and other cannons may hit my 50-knot clipper? One day, one of my brigades will be able to destroy a fleet of foreigners! It is by no means worse than Commander Deng's achievements in the naval battle at the mouth of the Yangtze River!"

The 65 large and small ships of the combined fleet are now nervously focusing on the strange and fast attack boats of the Chinese, and the sailors in charge of observation on each boat have found that although the three terrifying fish # torpedo boat brigades left at high speed after making # causing the tragedy, they strangely completed a head-biting tail circle movement on the distant sea, and seemed to be regrouping.

Then, suddenly, the speedboats that could shoot terror fish #pedoes unfurled again, and the circles in three directions were pulled apart one by one, forming three straight swords, which stabbed at the Combined Fleet again.

The Combined Fleet, which was burning in the hell of death, had no will to fight at this moment, and the surviving warships and merchant ships hoisted white flags one after another, and the brass bells hanging on the ships were rattled by the sailors, hoping to remind the Chinese navy on the other side that they had surrendered and could raise their noble hands.

The Battle of Hong Kong is finally over.

The old and young Chinese fleet won a great victory.

The good news of victory is constantly transmitted to the heart of the motherland #dirty.
