Chapter 211: The Great Development of the Navy
(PS: Ask for a few referral votes to support!) I am so grateful!!! )
When the naval combat command officers dispatched by the two countries, under the strict protection of Xu Jiajun, entered the secret experimental base of the Jiangdu submarine, under the guidance of the officers and men of the Xu Jiajun Navy. When he got into the submarine floating in the harbor, he found that there were not many people on board.
With the top cover on the box, the eight naval combat commanders of the two countries looked at the commander of Xu Jiajun and quickly gave the order for the submarine to dive. As the submarine descended to a distance of twenty meters, considering that this depth was not the limit of the submarine, the submarine commander ordered the submarine to begin underwater navigation.
The submarine was at the bottom of the water at a speed of about ten knots, and after sailing for some time, it began to enter the deep water. As the commander ordered the submarine to dive again, these Yingmi Navy commanders who came to visit and experience also looked a little nervous. Because at this time, they saw the dive indicator number on the submarine, which was rising at a rapid rate of one meter and one meter.
This means that the submarine they are riding in is also falling meter by meter until the submarine reaches a distance of fifty meters. Listening to the creaking sound of the cabin inside the submarine being pressed by the water pressure, a Eagle Army commander looked a little worried and said, "Captain Xu, are you sure you want to dive?" ”
It was Xu Weiguo, who performed well in the last submarine battle, who served as a demonstration for these Eagle Rice Navy. He was well aware of the depth of the submarine's limit, far less than fifty meters.
Therefore, he said very calmly: "It's okay, this submarine may dive to a theoretical depth of about 100 meters." Although we didn't dare to try 100 meters, we were afraid that we wouldn't be able to go up if we went down. However, it is still common to dive sixty or seventy meters. If that's enough, I'm going to move on with this depth! ”
Hearing this, the navies of the two countries felt. Since you want to purchase such submarines, it is better to know in detail. Soon, a group of people told Xu Weiguo a diving speed, that is, it was enough to dive to sixty meters.
In this regard, Xu Weiguo was also a little relieved in his heart. You must know that the diving depth of this Seawolf submarine is only 80 meters in theoretical design. Even if he does, he will not dive to a depth of seventy meters unless he has to. However, there is still no problem with the figure of 60 meters.
Soon Xu Weiguo ordered to dive again. After reaching a depth of 60 meters, the speed of the submarine undoubtedly becomes much slower, which is also to prevent the submarine from being crushed by the water pressure outside.
After sailing for a while, Xu Weiguo looked a little sweaty when he saw those naval officers of Eagle Rice. Very understandingly, he ordered the submarine to start afloat. When it floats to a distance of only a few meters from the surface of the water. Began to raise the periscope and let these naval officers experience it one by one.
When these naval officers. Found in such periscopes. I can see the situation of the sea. also sighed that once this kind of thing lurks, the warships passing by him may not be able to find it at all.
Just when everyone sighed, Xu Weiguo took the periscope and saw a merchant ship flying the Sun flag not far away. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said: "Everyone, for the performance of submarines. I'm sure you've all seen it just now. It's just that you haven't seen the attack performance of the submarine yet, so it just so happens that we have a target in front of us. If you don't mind, how about I show you it myself? ”
Naturally, the officers of the two countries would not mind this demonstration of attack. On the contrary, they are hopeful. See the real attack performance of the submarine. It's just that when they learned that Xu Weiguo was going to attack the merchant ships of the Sun Country, they also felt that it was a little inappropriate.
In this regard, Xu Weiguo said very seriously: "I am different from you, I am a soldier of Longhua Kingdom, and now any person from the Sun Kingdom is a mortal enemy of me." I don't care if they're merchants or soldiers, but it's a ship of the Sun Country.
What if they were on a merchant ship, transporting weapons and ammunition, or something that would cause harm to my people? Am I not attacking it just because it's commercial? It's impossible, you must know that it is still the period of the national war, and any little devil's thing, we, as Longhua soldiers, will give the most thorough counterattack. ”
With Xu Weiguo's righteous rebuttal, these experienced officers couldn't say anything, but they mourned silently for this little devil's merchant ship from the bottom of their hearts. Who told them to be so good that they just ran into such an experimental submarine on which they were riding?
Seeing Xu Weiguo press the battle alarm on the submarine, the submarine officers and soldiers who seemed to be idle just now quickly entered the combat state. One by one, the observer and the attacker have entered a state of preparation and aiming. With the successful filling of the torpedo, the sightman also confirmed the route and distance of the little devil's merchant ship.
Xu Weiguo gave an order, and a torpedo that could even be sunk by a warship quickly flew out of the submarine's torpedo compartment. The Eagle Rice officer, who was standing on the submarine, was also shaken by this shock wave. But they didn't bother to think about it, but grabbed the periscope and observed the situation after the torpedo was fired.
With an Eagle Army officer, after grabbing the periscope and constantly calculating the time from the torpedo to the target, the torpedo accurately hit the thousand-ton Sun State cargo ship in less than half a minute.
Watching the merchant ship quickly enter the water and begin to sink after the torpedo exploded, the Eagle Rice officer, who then snatched the periscope, thought. Let's not talk about how much this submarine is capable of dealing with warships, at least this kind of submarine is arranged. Dealing with this kind of merchant ship, which will definitely transport supplies for the country in wartime, is simply a matter of handicap.
Therefore, the jishu of submarines must be obtained, and they must also be equipped in their own navy. Otherwise, once their opponent gets the submarine, they have no countermeasures to fight back with the submarine. It will inevitably bring unpredictable dangers to their merchant ships and warships.
With this understanding, the naval officer Yingmi, who looked dignified at the end of the experience, quickly said goodbye to Xu Weiguo. On board the warships of various countries that had negotiated the joints in advance, in the open sea area of Jiangdu, the four officers who experienced it were picked up and returned to their respective warships. As for Xu Weiguo, he also successfully drove the submarine back to the submarine base in Jiangdu Port. The situation was reported to the Governor's Palace.
Hearing that Xu Weiguo also sank a merchant ship of a little devil when he led the navies of the two countries to experience submarines, Xu Bin knew that this was a live attack by mistake. I am afraid that the navies of the two countries will fully understand that even if such submarines cannot be dealt with, it will be a piece of cake to deal with these merchant ships equipped with anti-submarine equipment in the future.
As a naval power, they also need to exchange resources and wealth for their country by sea. If their shipping lanes are threatened by enemy submarines, the impact on them should not be underestimated. Therefore, with this understanding, the navies of the two countries should be prepared to be slaughtered in the bidding!
This awareness was quickly confirmed, and in the ensuing negotiations, although it was clear that the negotiators of the two countries were going to be slaughtered. But in the face of the negotiators sent by Xu Bin, they insisted on the bottom limit and did not dare to back down. At the same time, it has been emphasized that this kind of submarine is currently only sold to the two countries. If such submarines are sold to other small countries, I believe they are willing to pay such a high price to defend their maritime interests.
The navies of the two countries, who were helpless, paid a high price to get the transfer of the Seawolf-class submarine, and there was also a Seawolf-class submarine that was singled out from the active submarines and removed some sensitive equipment. And Xu Bin not only got a rich reward, but also vacated the officers and soldiers on the Liangzhi Seawolf submarine and let them be reequipped with Sea Shark-class submarines.
When the navies of the two countries emphasized that this kind of submarine Jishu was not sold to other countries except for the two of them, it was hoped that the Xu Jiajun side would not sell it to other countries. In this regard, Xu Jiajun's representative said very seriously that this kind of national weapon could not be sold to other countries at will. If it weren't for their marshal, they felt that they owed a favor to the two countries, and they would also have a close relationship with the navies of their two countries. This submarine jishu has been kept secret, aren't they the same as they can't get it?
Seeing that Xu Jiajun's negotiators all said this, the negotiators of Yingmi and Mi were slaughtered by Xu Bin without saying a word. In the telegram to China, it was also proposed that Xu Bin was a sincere partner to them. In fact, they didn't know that when Xu Jiajun signed a contract with Yingmi. He has reached an agreement with Debang on the transfer of submarines.
At the same time, the Kaiser was also very interesting, and ordered ten Seawolf-class submarines from Xu Jiajun at one time to strengthen their naval strength. In this regard, Xu Bin naturally smiled crookedly. With the order of these ten Seawolf-class submarines, it means that he does not have to pay money to build ten Seashark-class submarines. This business is so cost-effective!
The Jiangdu Shipyard, which is now in charge of submarine construction, was instructed to produce Sea Shark-class submarines at full capacity so that the submarine department could be reequipped as soon as possible. At the same time, the R&D department has also officially invested in the upgrading and transformation of the Sea Shark-class submarine. As for those submarines that have been refitted, Xu Bin doesn't have to worry about not being able to sell them at all. You know, this thing is unique, except he can make it. If other countries want to imitate it, I'm afraid it will have to wait at least one to two years!
As for the current Qiantang Shipyard, in addition to working overtime to hoist weapon systems on the four Zhenxing-class warships, the rest of the salvaged little devil warships have also been continuously delivered to the Admiralty at a speed of almost a week. So much so that recently the officers and men of the Admiralty have been treated like never before as a warship.
With the news of the great victory of the Qiantang Navy, those military ports were bombed, and the warships were sunk or sunk by the Longhua Navy. clearly wants to take revenge on the day, and there is only one place that has this strength. That is to join the banner of the Xu Jiajun Navy, hoping to one day take revenge on the little devils for shelling and destroying their warships and bases.
It was this continuous flow of new naval liliang that made Xu Bin and Deng Lichang, who were originally worried about the warship coming out and having no soldiers available, undoubtedly breathed a long sigh of relief. Seize every time to let these Longhua Navy, which has been reorganized and put on board ships, quickly become familiar with this new type of warship and form combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
The next time they fight the little devils, maybe they don't have to hide in military ports or harbors, they can directly pull the fleet to the open sea and fight to the death with the little devils' navy! (To be continued......)
