943 Torpedo boat sneak attack

When Makarov heard this, he immediately stood up and said angrily: "Lin Yuan, you are too arrogant!" ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "I'm arrogant because I have strength, I'll take a look at your arrogance." ”

Makarov's face turned blue with anger and said, "Okay, let's have a good fight." ”

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "Actually, I took great pains to invite you out to persuade you to lead your subordinates to surrender out of the spirit of international humanitarianism, and stubbornly starting a war can only increase the casualties of your subordinates!" ”

Makarov said angrily: "Don't say these useless words, we will fight to the death tomorrow!" You say, where are the fleets of both of our sides for a decisive battle? ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "We are outside Incheon Port, you should be able to find us when you come out, if you can't find us, we can also go to you!" ”

Makarov nodded and said, "Well, we've decided like this, farewell." ”

After Makarov finished speaking, he stood up, walked to the side of the transport ship with Heihachiro Togo, got into the dinghy, and returned to his battleship, Lin Yuan looked at the figure of them leaving, and couldn't help but think in his heart: "No, what is Heihachiro Togo doing here?" And he stood aside without saying a word, looking at his appearance, Japan had no intention of sending warships to help the Russians, what did he want to do? ”

On the departing boat, Makarov said to Heihachiro Togo: "General Togo, didn't you say that you want to take this opportunity to reconnoiter the situation of the Chinese warship?" How are you scouting? ”

It turned out that Togo Heihachiro and Makarov came together to explore Lin Yuan's details, and Togo Heihachiro said: "I found that the Chinese's warships are actually not powerful at all, and I saw that the caliber of the guns on their four warships is not very large, so I think your warships can completely outperform them." ”

Makarov nodded lightly and said, "Although the caliber of their naval guns is not large, their naval guns don't know what advanced techniques they use, and the shells fired can sink our warship with one shot!" ”

Togo Heihachiro shook his head and said: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, there is no shell in this world that can sink a warship with one shot, Mr. Makarov, I think the explosion and sinking of your two warships must be due to a problem with the hull design, and your ammunition depot is not well protected, so it was detonated by the shells of Lin Yuan's troops." ”

Makarov nodded and said, "I hope so." ”

Heihachiro Togo continued: "I think your warship should focus on the powerful firepower of a single ship when fighting against Chinese warships!" ”

Makarov asked: "Can you be more detailed?" ”

Heihachiro Togo said: "Let's analyze the advantages and disadvantages of both of you according to the situation of the previous naval battle, let's first talk about the advantages of Lin Yuan's warships, they can hit your warships from a long distance, which shows that the accuracy of their naval guns is better than yours, and secondly, their cannonballs hit your warships with fatal damage, indicating that their cannonballs are more powerful than yours." ”

"Let's talk about your advantages again, the caliber of your battleship's main guns is larger than that of Lin Yuan's battleship, and the number of guns on a single ship is also larger, and the number of your warships is more than Lin Yuan's warship, you see you have two Alexander-class battleships, three Narva-class battleships, six cruisers, ten destroyers, and more than twenty gunboats and torpedo boats."

"The battle is about avoiding the enemy's long and attacking the enemy's short, since Lin Yuan's warships are very accurate at long distances, you don't want to fight with them at long distances, give full play to your advantages in numbers, disperse the formation, and approach Lin Yuan's warships from all directions, Lin Yuan's warships are only four, and it takes a certain amount of time for them to aim and open fire, so it is impossible to hit the warships in each direction."

"So you will sacrifice some of the warships in exchange for other parts of the warships approaching Lin Yuan's warship, and then you will open fire and fight Lin Yuan's warship in close combat, and you will definitely be able to severely damage Lin Yuan's warship!"

Makarov's eyes lit up and he said, "We really want to go together!" ”

Makarov then began to go back to deploy for battle, when Konstantin found him and said: "Commander, I ask to lead a high-speed destroyer to fire torpedoes from a warship that has reached the near forest at the risk of death!" ”

The range of torpedoes in this era is less than a kilometer, and the range of large-caliber naval guns has exceeded ten kilometers, so firing a torpedo means suicide, Makarov was very relieved to see Konstantin so courageous, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Very good, then I will group the high-speed destroyers separately and assign them to your command." ”

Konstantin suddenly said: "Commander, in fact, I have a better way!" ”

When Makarov heard this, he immediately asked, "What better way?" Hurry up and say what it is. ”

Konstantin said: "The time for us to fight Lin Yuan is tomorrow during the day, why don't we take advantage of the night tonight to send torpedo boats to attack Lin Yuan's warship?" ”

After hearing this, Makarov slapped his thigh and said: "That's right, how did I forget about the torpedo boat?" ”

Konstantin continued: "In the past, it would have been difficult for this method of attack to succeed, because we did not know exactly where the enemy's fleet was, and even if we wanted to damage the enemy ship after searching and discovering it, it would be very difficult to damage the enemy ship, because if we wanted to find the enemy ship, the torpedo boat had to increase the search range, so the number of torpedo boats per unit area was very small, and even if a torpedo boat found an enemy ship, it would be difficult to notify other warships, and it would be difficult for a torpedo boat to win against an enemy ship." ”

"But now that we have a radio, a torpedo boat can spot an enemy ship and immediately notify the other torpedo boats, and then we can frantically tear our opponent to pieces like a pack of wolves at sea."

Makarov nodded appreciatively and said, "Young man, you are indeed a malleable talent!" But it was too dangerous for torpedo boats to attack large warships. ”

Konstantin said: "As a soldier of His Majesty the Tsar, it is our honor to sacrifice our lives for His Majesty the Tsar!" ”

Makarov said: "Well, I will order the torpedo boat unit to attack!" "The Russian torpedo boat has a displacement of less than 100 tons, but the speed is very fast, it can reach 28 knots, and it is loaded with ten 355 mm caliber torpedoes, which are copied from the white-headed torpedo, with a charge of 20 kilograms.

For Lin Yuan's warship, the most disadvantageous thing is that the torpedo boat is too small, and the altitude is very low, whether it is the Beijing ship or the Divine Beast-class missile destroyer, the radar on it is very small to detect it, and the Beijing ship has no take-off fighters to monitor the sea surface, and Lin Yuan does not know that the Russian army has dispatched torpedo boats.

Lin Yuan on the Beijing ship did not take tomorrow's battle to heart at all, because he knew very well that the Russian warships were completely vulnerable in the face of missiles, so he was repeatedly thinking about the establishment of an international organization that he had said to Shen Wanqing during the day, and he not only thought of telecommunications, but also economic, political, and even thought of establishing a United Nations dominated by China.

Just as Lin Yuan was thinking about it, suddenly a message came from the electronic warfare command room: "Report to Lin Shuai, a large number of electromagnetic signals suddenly appeared in Incheon Port!" ”
