1587 White Floater
Heihachiro Togo said, "Liquid seabed? What is that? ”
Hoshino Yasuwa said: "Togo General, the liquid seabed is a wonderful natural phenomenon, you should know that the nature of sea water at different depths is not static, sunlight will affect the salinity changes at various depths, resulting in a change in density, and this change in density is usually uniform, but sometimes, there will be a sudden change in density at a certain depth of sea water. ”
"In the water layer with a sudden change in density, the buoyancy of the submarine suddenly increases, and when the buoyancy and gravity are equal, the submarine will not sink again, at this time we can turn off the motors, stop the propellers, and quietly wait for the warship of Lin Yuan's troops."
Heihachiro Togo asked, "You just said that you can stop the propeller when buoyancy and gravity are equal, so it has to be in the liquid seabed?" Isn't it possible to stop the propeller for a time when the buoyancy is equal to gravity? ”
Hoshino Yasuwa said: "General Togo doesn't know anything about submarines, as I just said, the density of sea water changes with depth, so the buoyancy of the submarine cannot be a definite value, so it is difficult to have a situation where the buoyancy is exactly equal to gravity, which requires the submarine to adjust the elevator at all times and use the rudder to maintain the diving depth of the submarine." ”
"In the liquid seabed, the density changes very little, so the submarine can stay in it as if it were sitting on the bottom of the sea, which is where the name 'liquid seabed' comes from."
Heihachiro Togo said: "So that's the case, so will this liquid seabed definitely appear?" If you don't, won't your plans be all in vain? ”
Hoshino Yasuwa said: "General Togo, please rest assured, our navy's marine expert, my chief of staff Koyama Ishiiso Nakasa, has been studying the Sea of Japan for ten years, and has been studying the characteristics of the sea on the east coast of Korea since Korea was a vassal of the Qing court, and has accumulated a lot of information, according to his analysis, the probability of the appearance of liquid seabed is as high as 90% this season!" ”
"General Dongxiang, you have commanded the battle for many years, you should know that the probability of nothing happening on the battlefield is 100 percent, absolutely happening or absolutely not happening, as long as the probability of happening is high and the benefits are great, we should do it, do you think what I said is right?"
Togo Heihachiro nodded and said, "Very good, you are right, I still have a question, you are ambushed underwater, how can you know the location of the Dao Lin Yuan warship?" ”
"Although electromagnetic waves do not propagate as smoothly in the water as they do in the air, it does not mean that electromagnetic waves cannot propagate in the water at all, and our decoy submarines will be equipped with high-power radios to report to us," Hoshino said. ”
Heihachiro Togo nodded and said, "Okay, I won't care about the specific tactical matters, your plan is good, go and implement it." ”
Hoshino Yasuwa agreed, and at this moment, he suddenly heard the phone on the table ringing, and Heihachiro Togo picked up the phone, only to hear an anxious voice coming from inside: "Oh no, the flying machine of Lin Yuan's troops is here." ”
Heihachiro Togo said angrily: "What are you panicking about? Isn't there a plan? Let the troops on the port plan according to the predetermined plan. Togo Heihachiro put down the phone and said, "What is there to panic about, there are no warships in the port anymore, so Lin Yuan will not waste ammunition for a group of non-combat ships." ”
Akiyama Shinyuki heard Togo Heihachiro's words and hurriedly said, "The target of Lin Yuan's aircraft, could it be our submarine?" ”
Hoshino Yasuwa said: "Chief of Staff, please rest assured, our submarine is parked in the boathouse, and the aircraft of Lin Yuan's troops will never be detected from the sky." ”
Akiyama Shinyuki nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's good, the submarine is the only force for our Imperial Japanese Navy to save face, and there can be no more mistakes." ”
Hoshino Yasuwa said: "Chief of Staff, don't worry, our submarine team will definitely inflict heavy damage on Lin Yuan's warship!" Hoshino Yasuwa came out of the command room after speaking, according to the plan, when Lin Yuan's troops' aircraft came, all the Japanese troops should be transferred to the nearby underground bunker, but Hoshino Yasuwa saw that the Japanese troops in the courtyard were the same as before, and no one went to the underground bunker.
Hoshino Yasuwa was very puzzled, called a soldier next to him and asked, "Why don't you go to the bunker to hide?" ”
The soldier wondered, "Hiding from what?" ”
Hoshino Yasuwa realized that he hadn't heard the sound of the alarm all the way out of the headquarters room, and he was very strange in his heart, thinking, "Didn't you just say that there was a flying machine coming?" Why didn't anyone press the alarm? ”
Thinking of this, Hoshino Yasuwa walked back to the command room, found Heihachiro Togo and asked, "General Togo, why don't we pull the alarm for Lu?" ”
Togo Heihachiro said: "There's no need, you just got out of the observation post and called and said that Lin Yuan's troops' aircraft flew away again." ”
Hoshino Yasuwa frowned and asked, "Flew away again?" So what did they come to do? ”
Heihachiro Togo said: "According to the report of our observation post, the aircraft of Lin Yuan's troops came over and dropped something, and as for what it is, I am about to send someone to investigate. ”
Hoshino Yasuwa said, "General Togo, then let me investigate." ”
Heihachiro Togo said: "This matter is the responsibility of the port guard, so it's not appropriate for you to go." ”
Hoshino Yasuwa said loudly: "Report to General Dongxiang, I have long wanted to see the flying machines of Lin Yuan's troops, and I must not miss this opportunity." ”
Heihachiro Togo nodded, picked up the phone on the table and said, "Captain Kogoro Matsushita of the port guard?" Captain Yasuwa Hoshino is involved in your operations as my special envoy, and you will cooperate with him fully. After Togo Heihachiro finished speaking, he put down the phone and said to Hoshino Yasuwa: "Hoshino-kun, you can go to Matsushita Kogoro." ”
Hoshino Yasuwa is the Navy Commander, and Matsushita Kogoro is just the Navy Commander, so Matsushita Kogoro has great respect for Hoshino Yasuwa, the two took three boats and went to the place where the fighter plane of Lin Yuan's troops threw things, and when the boat was walking in the harbor waterway, the observer in front of the boat suddenly entered the cabin and said to Hoshino Yasuwa and Matsushita Kogoro: "Your Excellency Osa, Captain Panasonic, an unknown object was found on the water in front of you." ”
When Hoshino Yasuwa heard this, he raised his binoculars and looked into the distance, only to see a few white things floating on the yellowed water in the distance, the distance was too far away, and it was not clear what it was, so Hoshino Yasuwa said to Matsushita Kogoro: "Let the dinghy get closer, and take a good look at what it is." ”
Kogoro Matsushita then ordered his subordinates: "Speed up and drive towards the mysterious object." ”
