441 The flagship of the devil-fighting
The Russian soldiers were worried that the searchlights could not shine on the battery on the mountain, and at this time, they saw countless fires in the battery, illuminating the battery, and happily thought: "I am worried about the lack of lights, but the Chinese have lit a fire to illuminate us." ”
So the Russian warships and the Japanese warships began to use these fires to calculate the shooting elements, the first wave of shells soon fell on the position of the battery, the purpose of the warships was to cover the landing force, so the continuity of firepower is more important, so the warships did not use the method of all salvos, but the method of fleet group salvo, that is, all the warships were divided into several groups to fire a salvo.
The shells of the first group of warships fell on the fort position, and a deafening roar came, Luo Rongguang said to Lin Yuan anxiously: "Lin Shuai, our position is being beaten by **, are we just watching like this?" ”
Lin Yuan smiled indifferently and said, "Don't worry, soon they won't be able to fight." ”
As he spoke, the smoke over the fort gradually thickened, and soon, a fog that was thicker than a few days ago shrouded the fort, and the view of the warship was obscured, and the sound of the cannon stopped for a while.
Luo Rongguang looked at the fog in front of him and asked Lin Yuan in a daze: "Lin Shuai, you have long expected this fog?" ”
Lin Yuan smiled: "This fog was not something I expected, but I created it. ”
Luo Rongguang looked at Lin Yuan with unbelievable eyes, and Lin Yuan smiled: "Do you know how the fog came from?" ”
Luo Rongguang shook his head, Lin Yuan stretched out his hand and waved it in the air, explaining: "You see, there seems to be nothing in this air, but there is air in it, and there is water in the air, they exist in the form of gaseous, when the temperature drops, the water vapor emits heat, so it becomes liquid water, and it becomes a small droplet in the air." ”
"But these small droplets alone are not enough to form a fog, these small droplets have to attach to other things, such as soot, the things I asked Pan Chi to light are wood, coal and hay that are very easy to produce smoke and dust, they provide a place for the small droplets to attach to, and it happens that the temperature drops violently tonight, so the fog is formed."
Luo Rongguang asked in surprise, "But how do you know that the temperature in the Dao will drop today?" ”
Lin Yuan obtained the meteorological information from the Beijing ship, and he didn't want to tell him about the Beijing ship, so he smiled and didn't mention this matter anymore, but said: "Order Pan Chi to attack quickly and knock out all the landing ships of the Russian army parked on the coast." ”
Luo Rongguang hurriedly dissuaded: "Lin Shuai, by all means, there are more than a dozen destroyers escorting the Russian landing ship, isn't our boat looking for death when it goes?" ”
Lin Yuan smiled: "Don't worry, the ** son can't beat us." "The commander of the Russian army is indeed a handsome talent, and he has set up the landing site to be watertight, with the heavy artillery cover of the battleship behind the back, and the fifteen destroyers cruising and searching in the middle to resist the sneak attack from the sea, and the landing ship is still guarded by soldiers.
If it weren't for the fog created by Lin Yuan, Pan Chi's ship would have been sent to death, because although their ship had a large number of oars, its speed was far from that of a destroyer powered by a steam engine, and the firepower was very different, and the rapid-fire guns and machine guns on the destroyer, a few shells were enough to sink Pan Chi's ship.
But with this fog, everything was different, Pan Chi received an order, and quickly led a hundred and ten subordinates, rowing a hundred oars centipede boats, to the place where the Russian army landed, their target was the landing ship of the Russian army, Pan Chi ordered the soldiers who rowed the oars, paddling softly, not to disturb the enemy.
There are twenty landing ships of the Russian army, each of which has more than a dozen crew members on it, and the fog at night, coupled with the soft paddling of Pan Chi's subordinates, so when the Russian army found Pan Chi's boat, the distance was less than twenty meters, and the Russian soldiers hurriedly shot at Pan Chi and them.
Pan Chi's equipment was incomparable to Lin Yuan's subordinates, they didn't have automatic rifles, let alone machine guns and bazookas, but Lin Yuan made them something to deal with the Russian landing ship.
In addition to designing the cloud burst bomb, Lin Yuan also brought a lot of gasoline, which was produced by the oil refinery in the Shenyang Industrial Zone, and he asked the defenders of Dagukou to prepare a lot of wine jars, and then loaded the gasoline into them, stuffed them with cloth, lit the cloth strips when they were used, and then threw them on the other party's boat.
The principle of this equipment is very similar to the "Monotov cocktail" during World War II, Pan Chi led the group to row a small boat to the vicinity of the Russian landing ship, lit torches, lit strips of cloth, and threw the wine jar into it.
The landing ships of the Russian army are actually converted from civilian fishing boats, and the freeboard is very low, so the wine jars are thrown in, and the hull structure and outfitting are all wood, which was burned by gasoline, and suddenly a fire broke out, and the billowing smoke choked the Russian soldiers so that they couldn't even open their eyes, where did they still have the heart to shoot.
When the Russian soldiers saw countless small boats coming in the thick smoke, they were very frightened, and they wanted to run away regardless of whether the landing force was still on the shore, but they couldn't run away if they wanted to, because it was just in time for the low tide, and their boats were stuck in the soft mud and sand, unable to move.
The destroyers in the distance saw the firelight and heard the sound, but they wanted to fire but it was too late, since the Qing army could throw the Molotov cocktails on the Russian landing ship, the distance between the two can be imagined, Pan Chi followed Lin Yuan's instructions, did not dwell too much, and when he saw the landing ship on fire, he immediately withdrew from the battle, and the destroyer couldn't catch up, and watched them escape.
The battle on the shore ended quickly, the remaining 200 Russian troops plus the crew, a total of more than 300 people, more than 100 people were burned to death, the rest jumped into the water and froze to death a lot, and the rest were rescued by the follow-up boats.
After Lin Yuan gave the order to Pan Chi, he informed Li Kai on the Immortal Mountain: "Turn on the radar and detect enemy ship targets." ”
The working wavelength of this type of airborne radar is in the centimeter level, although such a wavelength will be affected to a certain extent in fog and smoke, but the detection accuracy is still sufficient, Li Kai quickly said: "Detect enemy ship targets, according to the radar reflection area, the five battleships of the Japanese army and the Russian army are within our range." ”
Lin Yuan then ordered: "Report the names of the enemy ships within range." ”
Modern radar can detect the characteristics of targets through the polarization information of the emitted electromagnetic waves, and then store their characteristics, laying the foundation for target identification.
The optical system and the radar system are connected, so that after detecting the name of the enemy's warship, the radar will automatically record its polarization characteristics, Li Kai then said: "Within our range are the Russian battleship Poltava, the Japanese flagship Fuji ......"
Lin Yuan immediately said: "Inform Yao Feng to fight the flagship of the little devil, Fuji!" ”
The Fuji ship was moving at a constant speed at sea at this time, the side was aimed at the direction of the battery, the radar had already calculated its speed information, Yao Feng led his subordinates, three guns in a salvo, and shot towards the position where the Fuji ship was about to arrive.
The Japanese-Russian coalition forces originally thought that the thick fog covered the fort, and no one could see anyone, and the defenders of the fort would definitely not be able to hit them, where did they know that there was such a thing as a radar on the mountain! Just when they didn't know anything, the shells arrived.
