1591 There are no mines

Hearing this, Heihachiro Togo asked, "What key parts?" ”

Fujita Izumo said, "General Togo, can we take a step to speak?" ”

Heihachiro Togo thought to himself, "What the hell is on board?" And to borrow a step to speak. Togo Heihachiro then said, "Okay, you can come with me." ”

Heihachiro Togo led Izumo Fujita to the door, the corridor was empty, there was no figure, Heihachiro Togo said, "Now you can say it, right?" ”

Izumo Fujita nodded and said, "It's okay!" General Dongxiang, I believe you must have suffered from the electronic interference of Lin Yuan's troops, right? ”

Heihachiro Togo remembered the past and said with some unhappiness, "What are you talking about?" ”

Fujita Izumo said: "General Togo, you don't have to be unhappy, our army suffers a greater loss from electronic interference, you should know that in the previous confrontations with the main artillery fighting vehicles, our main artillery fighting vehicles completely lost their communication capabilities under the interference of Lin Yuan's troops, and could only communicate with the most primitive flag language and light signals. ”

Heihachiro Togo said: "Don't talk about this, let's talk about what the key parts are." ”

Izumo Fujita said, "The key component is the communication system for the new main gun combat vehicle!" ”

Heihachiro Togo asked, "What is this?" ”

Izumo Fujita said: "After studying the electronic jamming of Lin Yuan's troops, our communications experts found that although their electronic jamming was powerful, it was not yet to the point where it could not be cracked, and our experts proposed a concept called 'failure distance', which pointed out that as long as the transmitting power of the communicator was large enough, within a certain distance, the enemy's electronic jamming would fail. ”

"So our experts have developed a batch of new communicators, these communicators have increased the power, so they can disable the electronic jammers of Lin Yuan's troops, the most critical thing on the ship is this batch of new communicators, for the sake of secrecy, I did not tell the port inspectors."

Heihachiro Togo said, "These communicators are all electronic products, right? ”

Izumo Fujita said: "Yes, they are all electronic products, so they are afraid of water, so they need to be transported ashore immediately." ”

Heihachiro Togo said, "Didn't you do waterproofing? ”

Izumo Fujita said: "I did, but the waterproof treatment coped with the humid air at sea, so we only sealed the gaps in the wooden box with strong solidifying glue, and I don't know if the strong coagulant will fail under the high water pressure, and once it fails, the water will enter the box containing the communicator and make the communicator fail." ”

Heihachiro Togo said helplessly: "Won't you use a metal box to encapsulate?" ”

Fujita Izumo's face was ugly for a while, and he said, "There are not too many metals in the empire, so let's use less if you can." ”

Heihachiro Togo said: "Okay, I'll send divers to salvage the communicator, do you have a structural diagram of the ship?" ”

Fujita Izumo shook his head in shame, and Heihachiro Togo said helplessly: "Without a structural diagram, how do my divers know where the communicator is!" ”

Izumo Fujita said, "I can draw it for you." Heihachiro Togo said, "Okay, let's go back to the command room quickly, and you can draw the position of the communicator to my divers." ”

Fujita Izumo nodded, the two returned to the command room, one drew a picture, and the other ordered someone to find the divers, Akiyama Shinyuki hurriedly said: "Togo-kun, you can't send divers, you just said, it's a very dangerous thing to send divers now, and the transport ship has just sunk, the mud and sand under the water have been stirred up, and the diving environment is even more difficult!" ”

Heihachiro Togo said categorically: "I can't care so much, now we have to send divers." Akiyama Shinyuki listened to Togo Heihachiro's tone was very firm, and he didn't want to say anything more, so he asked people to order the divers to set off, at this time Fujita Izumo had already drawn out the general structure of the ship and handed it to Togo Heihachiro, Togo Heihachiro looked at the structural diagram and said, "The location of the communication equipment is near the waterline?" ”

Izumo Fujita nodded, and Heihachiro Togo said, "How can a person get there?" ”

Izumo Fujita said, "In normal times, people would have been able to reach that position by passing through two decks, but now that the ship is sinking, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

Without thinking about it, Heihachiro Togo said, "Then blow it up with explosives, blow up a hole in the side near the waterline, and enter the hull directly from the water." ”

Fujita Izumo nodded and said, "It's all up to General Togo's arrangement." Togo Heihachiro then began to arrange, and soon the divers set off with explosives, and then the explosion sounded in the water, and the salvage work continued all night, and finally more than a dozen boxes and more than 100 new communication stations were snatched.

Fujita Izumo saw that the radio station was not damaged, so he begged Togo Heihachiro to help salvage mechanical parts, although the navy and the army had contradictions, but in the face of Lin Yuan was still very united, Togo Heihachiro then readily agreed, just like that, the divers continued to salvage mechanical parts.

While the divers were salvaging the mechanical parts, Heihachiro Togo said to his subordinates, "Go and ask Yasuwa Hoshino, can they be dispatched?" ”

Soon his subordinates came back and said, "Hoshino Daisa said that they didn't dare to go out because there were mines in the channel. ”

Heihachiro Togo said: "Then let's clear the minesweeper first, and let the captain of the minesweeper detachment come to see me." The subordinates immediately went out to convey the order, and the captain of the minesweeper detachment came to the command room in a short time, and Heihachiro Togo said: "Now there are mines in the channel, you have to clear them, is it difficult?" ”

The captain of the minesweeper detachment said: "Report to the general, since our defeat at Dagukou, we have been concentrating on the study of mine-sweeping techniques, and we will definitely be able to clear the mines on the waterway as quickly as possible. ”

Heihachiro Togo said, "What new techniques do you have?" ”

The leader of the minesweeper detachment said: "We will use the technique of pulling a net minesweeper this time, we will use two boats to walk on the channel, between the two ships pull a large net, the net is equipped with a depth fixer, which can make the net go down to a depth of 20 meters, if there is a mine in the channel, then it will definitely hit the net, the port channel is not wide, so we will soon be able to sweep out the enemy's mines." ”

Togo Heihachiro nodded again and again and said, "Okay, you guys can go as soon as possible." The leader of the minesweeper detachment then walked out of the command room and led the minesweeper detachment to set off and advance in the harbor channel, while Heihachiro Togo was in the command room on the high ground, anxiously waiting for news from the captain of the minesweeper detachment.

Four hours had passed, and it was already twelve o'clock at noon on March 3, when Fujita Izumo came over and said, "General Togo, all the parts that can be salvaged are almost salvage, and we are going to send this batch of parts to the factory in Jizhou, thank you General Togo for your great help!" ”

Heihachiro Togo laughed loudly: "We are all samurai of the Great Japanese Empire, needless to say, Xie Lu Xie." Fujita Izumo thanked him and left the headquarters, when the leader of the minesweeper detachment sent a message to Heihachiro Togo with a communicator: "Report to General Togo, we have searched the channel and found that there are no mines in the channel!" ”
