659 Hell-class submarine
"Then how do you say to wash away the shame?" Lin Fei asked with a smile.
"We need to fight at least one more war of annihilation like the Nanyang World War to completely wash away the shame." Qin Hui pulled out his chest, as if he was recalling the glory of the Nanyang World War.
Lin Fei laughed, "I'm afraid it's difficult to succeed in a war of annihilation like the Nanyang World War, after all, the enemy is not a fool, and it is impossible to be defeated by us again and again with the same tricks, so let's give you a brand new mission, okay?" ”
Qin Hui stood up and saluted, and said with a straight face: "Report to Your Majesty and promise to complete the task." ”
"Good." Lin Fei praised, stood up, walked out of the table, came to Qin Hui, and said: "Now we are in a full-scale war with the Qing court, so we need a large number of advanced weapons to form combat effectiveness, which can greatly speed up the process of the war, but it takes a process for weapons and equipment to form combat effectiveness." ”
"For a piece of weaponry and equipment, it is necessary to first put forward design indicators, then to develop it, and to conduct tests when it is developed, and finally before it can enter service with the troops, and after it is put into service, it must be trained to form combat effectiveness."
"This process is relatively long, for example, our new generation of submarines, we have carried out two years of improvement and development on the basis of the monster-class submarine, and now we have entered the army for a series of training."
"If we train slowly and leisurely according to the original plan, it will undoubtedly take a long time, so we need to use actual combat to train, the reason why I want you to train in actual combat is to hope that you will form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, I am worried that the Western powers will use force to interfere with us, our surface warships do not have absolute superiority, and there must be submarines to participate in the war."
Lin Fei said and picked up the information on the table that the Zhiyuan ship was coming to attack and handed it to Qin Hui, "Look, the Zhiyuan ship of the Qing Kingdom is replenishing coal on Hong Kong Island at this time, I estimate that it is going to surprise attack our ports in China, Da Nang and Cam Ranh Bay in the vassal countries of Vietnam, Dayu City and Yanhuang City in China will be the targets of the surprise attack of the Zhiyuan ships." ”
"So I need you to find the Zhiyuan and then sink it." When Lin Fei said this, his heart suddenly became heavy, although the current Zhiyuan ship has nothing to do with the Zhiyuan ship in his time, but the pipe belt of this Zhiyuan ship is still Deng Shichang, and Deng Shichang's status in Lin Fei's mind is still relatively heavy.
Qin Hui's face sank, and he asked softly: "Your Majesty, the pipe belt of the Zhiyuan ship is General Deng Shichang, your father-in-law, if the Zhiyuan ship is sunk, then he will not be ......?"
"Alas, this is also a matter of no choice, war, it is war, there is no way to talk about personal feelings, okay, don't say more, hurry up and act."
Qin Hui nodded, said "Okay", and suddenly his tone changed, from heavy to joyful, "Your Majesty, can I say one thing?" ”
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Haha, Your Majesty, wouldn't it be good if you just let me attack, why bother to say so much about equipment development, I'm not interested, I found that you have been getting more and more verbose recently, this should be the legendary mother-in-law, right?"
"You kid!" As soon as Lin Fei frowned, Qin Hui disappeared in front of Lin Fei with a smoke, Lin Fei shook his head with a wicked smile, and said secretly in his heart, Qin Hui, Qin Hui, you kid still dare to say that my mother-in-law and mother, as long as I say a few bad things about you in front of Ning Shuang, she will relay these words to Yu Bing, Yu Bing is such a beautiful woman, you kid can't eat it......
Qin Hui returned to the submarine base and arranged for the submarine to prepare for the expedition, at this time the submarine base, there were a total of ten submarines, three of which were the first batch of monster-class submarines, namely the Demon Mirage boat, the giant dragon boat and the candle dragon boat, the ghost shark boat was sunk by British mines in the naval battle with Vietnam.
There are also four monster-class submarines in the second batch, namely Kuilong boat, Yujiang boat, drought boat, and virtual boat, these four names all come from ancient Chinese myths and legends, and meet Lin Fei's requirements for ship names - to reflect Chinese culture.
"Kui Long" is a legendary one-legged monster, which has been mentioned in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas"; The legend of "Yujiang" is the god of the sea, whose body is like a fish, but there are human siblings, which have been mentioned in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" and "Zhuangzi"; "Drought fish" is a ghost that causes drought in Chinese legends, and there is a custom of "fighting drought fish" in various places; "Waste" is a kind of evil spirit in folklore, and it is said that the people put a door god on the door to expel waste.
In the naming of military ships, Lin Fei took two routes, the surface fleet, which took the bright route, and the names of the ships were all bright and upward, such as the Dragon class, the Great Emperor class and the Dynasty class, while on the underwater ships, they took the dark route, and the names of the ships were all terrifying and gloomy things, and the four new submarines were no exception.
The four new submarines were put into service after more than two years of research and development, and were named "Hell Class" by Lin Fei, and hell is involved in the legends of various countries and in Chinese culture, although many of the concepts of hell in Chinese culture come from Buddhism, but it is also the product of the combination of Buddhism and Chinese culture.
These four hell-class submarines were named by Lin Fei as "Qin Guang Wang Boat", "Song Emperor Boat Boat", "Chu Jiang King Boat Boat" and "Wuguan King Boat Boat", these four names were taken from the Ten Palaces Yama, originally Lin Fei wanted to name these submarines "Tongue Pulling", "Ah Nose", "Dao Mountain" and other hell names, but later felt that this was too bloody, so he changed his mind.
The Hell-class submarine has made a lot of progress compared to the monster-class submarine, the monster-class submarine is 70 meters long, 20 meters wide, 3 meters draft, 600 tons of displacement, and 60 meters deep, the hell-class submarine, 95 meters long, 23 meters wide, 4 meters draft, 1,200 tons of displacement, and 80 meters deep.
In terms of submarine performance, the hell-class submarine has been greatly improved compared with the monster-class submarine, the most obvious point is the underwater speed, the original monster-class submarine has a maximum underwater speed of only nine knots, and the hell-class submarine's data has been increased to fifteen knots, which makes the hell-class submarine have the capital to compete with surface warships, in terms of combat use, the hell-class submarine can finally not be confined to waiting for ambushes, for some slow warships and merchant ships, the hell-class submarine can also launch a pursuit operation.
In terms of hull equipment, the hell-class submarine has also made a lot of progress compared to the monster-class submarine, first of all, the progress of underwater detection equipment, the original monster-class submarine is only equipped with a simple hydrophone, and can only hear the sound of the ship, but it is impossible to use data processing means to detect the distance and direction of the ship.
On the hell-class submarine, equipped with simple sonar, it can orient and distance the sound of the ship within ten kilometers, and the hell-class submarine has this kind of sonar, and the autonomous combat capability has been greatly improved.
The weapons and equipment on the hell-class submarine have also been updated, and the monster-class submarine is equipped with a swordfish torpedo, which was once sold by Lin Fei to the Boers, and the reason why Lin Fei dared to sell this type of torpedo is because Lin Fei has an improved version of the swordfish torpedo - the tiger shark torpedo.
The military number of the swordfish torpedo is HLY-600-1, and the military number of the tiger shark torpedo is HLY-600-2, which means an improved version of the swordfish torpedo, the biggest highlight of this type of torpedo is that it has been replaced with a new engine and a more sophisticated gyro seeker, the range has been increased from 1,500 meters of the swordfish torpedo to 3,000 meters, and the speed has been increased from 10 knots to 15 knots.
There are four hell-class submarines in the submarine base, Qin Hui decided to send them all out to search for the Zhiyuan ship, when the Zhiyuan ship came out of Hong Kong, the Emperor-class cruiser Hanwen ship, which was monitoring British movements in the Hong Kong area, wanted to sink it, but the Zhiyuan ship used a series of means to increase the engine power such as super pressure ventilation, so that the speed exceeded 25 knots, and escaped directly under the nose of the Hanwen ship.
At 9 o'clock in the morning of 24 March, the Qinguang King boat led by Qin Hui encountered the Zhiyuan ship in the western waters of Luzon Island.
The simple sonar of the hell-class submarine can hear the sound signal from thirty kilometers away, but it can only be accurately oriented and fixed at ten kilometers, and the Qin Guangwang boat received the sound signal at the beginning, and did not know that this sound signal was sent by the Zhiyuan ship, and they approached the sound signal source according to the general direction of the sound signal.
In the process of approaching each other, the Qin Guangwang boat detected from the changing sound waves that the speed of this sound signal source was about twenty-one knots, and the ship that could run at this speed was probably the Zhiyuan ship.
Qin Hui was very excited, thinking that the Zhiyuan ship had let me meet, my luck was really good!
Qin Hui immediately ordered Qin Guangwang's boat to float to the periscope level, raise the periscope, and reconnoiter the details of this sound signal source, it is difficult for the submarine to distinguish the sound source from the sound, only in Lin Fei's era, under the premise that computer technology is particularly developed, it is possible to know the specific situation of the sound source through information processing technology and comparison with database information.
Qin Guangwang's boat floated while moving forward, and soon entered the periscope depth, raised the periscope, Qin Hui held the periscope gauntlet, turned the periscope, and looked for surface ships.
When the periscope turned four scales, a surface warship entered Qin Hui's field of vision, the battleship had a beautiful appearance, high freeboard, bow and tail building ship type, there were four earphones on one side of the ship, and a gun was deployed on each earplate, which was Deng Shichang's Zhiyuan ship.
