1544 The Mystery Beneath the Tarpaulin

Togo Heihachiro thought for a while and said, "Forget it, let them go, let's attack Lin Yuan's fleet as soon as possible, don't make any trouble." After Togo Heihachiro finished speaking, he asked the snow blowers to return to their team, and the Japanese army continued to sail towards the sea near Kiyotsu Port.

When Liu Bin fled to a distance, the first thing he did was to look at the photo taken, and it turned out that there were protrusions on the tarpaulin, and it was obvious that something below had pushed the tarpaulin up, and Liu Bin said to the operator: "What is this?" It was as if a hedgehog was covered under the tarpaulin. ”

The operator also shook his head again and again, and said: "Commander, I don't know what this is, let's not guess, let's not guess, let's send the picture to the fleet commander Yu Feng and Lin Shuai, let them see, Lin Shuai is well-informed, he must know what this thing is." ”

Liu Bin then sent the picture to Yu Feng, and it was already twelve o'clock in the evening when Yu Feng received the picture, because Lin Yuan had explained in advance that he would send him the picture as soon as there was a picture of the Japanese warship, so although it was very late, Yu Feng still sent the picture to Lin Yuan.

The attendant room didn't dare to slack off when he received the picture, and hurriedly sent the picture to Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan had already fallen asleep at this time, and when he heard that the picture of the Japanese ship had been sent, he immediately put on his clothes and came out of the conference room, and ordered: "Prepare for a video call, I want to talk directly to Yu Feng, the captain of the Fire Phoenix Ship." ”

After a short time, the video call equipment was prepared, and Yu Feng first threw the tarpaulin question to Lin Yuan and asked, "Lin Shuai, what do you think is under the tarpaulin?" ”

Lin Yuan looked at the tarpaulin for a long time, shook his head, and said, "I don't know what is under the road. Well, I'll take a look at the photos of the Japanese warships and see if I can guess. ”

Yu Feng agreed, Lin Yuan began to look at the photos, Lin Yuan saw the photos marked with the name of the warship, which Yu Feng inferred from the Japanese army's public information, although the Japanese army has a very high degree of secrecy about these warships, but the name of the ship still has to be announced.

Lin Yuan first looked at the Ise-class battleships and Fuso-class battleships, and thought to himself: "The appearance of these two types of battleships can be more than ten years earlier than our era, I don't know if there will be any changes in the road." He glanced at the main gun turret and thought, "There is no difference from the main gun configuration of my time, the Ise-class battleships have 12 twin-mounted large-caliber guns, and the same is true for the Fuso-class battleships, it seems that my 'big ship and giant cannon misleading' strategy is still very successful." ”

Lin Yuan then went to look at the bridge, and at a glance saw the top standing long strip like something, Lin Yuan immediately understood, that is the Japanese army's communication antenna, he looked around the warship again, and found no other shape of antenna, and then thought: "It seems that the Japanese warship is not equipped with radar, because the antenna shape of the radar is very different from the shape of the communication antenna, since there is only a communication antenna on the warship, there must be no radar on it." ”

Lin Yuan looked under the bridge again, and found a horizontal strip, according to the ruler in the photo, the strip was almost fifteen meters long, and the strip was connected to the outside of a room, Lin Yuan thought in his heart: "This thing should be a fifteen-meter baseline length rangefinder, used to measure the distance in naval battles, I saw this kind of thing when I was in Germany, the longer the baseline of this kind of thing, the higher the observation accuracy, the fifteen-meter baseline length, the accuracy of the Japanese army's rangefinder should not be low." ”

On the bridge under the rangefinder, there are a bunch of telescopes of various calibers, Lin Yuan thought: "These telescopes must be used to measure the target orientation, according to the naval technology of this era, some telescopes are responsible for measuring the horizontal bearing, and some are responsible for measuring the pitching bearing, these observation equipment should be part of the fire control system, and the inside of the bridge should be the location of the fire control system." ”

"In my time, the first country to use the fire control system on warships was the United Kingdom, and they kept it secret after discovering the important role of the fire control system, and the Japanese Navy, until 1913, did not adopt the fire control system, and their fire control system was still learned from the British, but by this era, the Japanese Navy is now equipped with a fire control system."

Lin Yuan looked at the bridge and looked at the power section in the middle, and found no trace of coal, so he decided that the Japanese battleships were burning oil, Lin Yuan said to Yu Feng after reading this: "I don't think there is anything missing on the Japanese battleships, the only thing missing is the torpedo tube, and the thing covered with the tarpaulin may be a torpedo tube." ”

Yu Feng said: "Lin Shuai, we have found the torpedo tube, and the shape of the thing under the tarpaulin is completely different, you look at the picture of the snow blowing ship, there is a picture of the torpedo tube on it." ”

When Lin Yuan heard this, he took the photo of the Blowing Snow-class destroyer, and sure enough, he saw that on the decks of the two sides of the warship, there were four triple cylinders, and the cylinders were in the shape of "Pin", which were obviously torpedo tubes, Lin Yuan looked at it and said: "A warship has twelve torpedo tubes, and sixteen warships have one hundred and ninety-two. ”

Yu Feng said with a smile: "Lin Shuai rest assured, the torpedoes of this era have a range of less than one thousand meters, and our destroyers will not let them approach us for a thousand meters no matter what, and each of our destroyers has forty-eight vertical launch units, equipped with a total of ninety-six anti-ship missiles, and the Japanese warships were all sunk by us before they could get close to us." ”

Lin Yuanyi said solemnly: "Yu Feng, your thinking is very dangerous, do you know the way?" ”

Yu Feng heard Lin Yuan's tone suddenly become stern, hurriedly put away his smile, and said, "Please make it clear to Lin Shuai." ”

Lin Yuan said: "We have been fighting with the Japanese army for many days, you look at the weapons and equipment of the Japanese army, tanks, automatic rifles, rocket-boosted armor-piercing shells, which is not something beyond the times, now the military technology of the world is in an era of great changes, it is not surprising that there has been a major breakthrough in torpedo technology, you have to prepare to deal with the enemy's torpedoes." ”

Yu Feng said: "We understand. ”

Lin Yuan said: "Your batch of warships are equipped with bow sonar and anti-torpedo systems, you didn't neglect training because of your underestimating enemy, right?" ”

Yu Feng hurriedly said: "Although Lin Shuai can rest assured, absolutely not, our training is in accordance with the training outline, and it is definitely completed with quality and quantity." ”

Lin Yuan said: "That's good, I estimate that the big battle should be tomorrow, you should hurry up and rest, and then annihilate all the Japanese fleet." ”

Yu Feng replied: "Yes Lin Shuai, I promise to complete the task!" ”
