651 Smart Mines

Chen Fei said: "We can use helicopters to board the ship, no matter how fast the ship is, it is impossible to be faster than the helicopter!" ”

Lin Yuan shook his head again and again, and said: "Absolutely impossible, first of all, it is difficult for a helicopter to land on a ship without the cooperation of the ship, and it will be extremely risky if it is forcibly landed, and secondly, we don't know the shape of the ship after loading the cargo, if there is no place on the deck that can allow the helicopter to land, the operation will fail." ”

Chen Fei nodded and asked, "Then what should we do?" ”

Lin Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Since we can't board the ship, then we'll find a way to sink their ship!" ”

Chen Fei said: "Then we can only dispatch planes in front of everyone, and the few broken warships in our hands are not the opponents of the British at all, do you know the way?" Ever since you were charging at Yingkou, the British had sent three warships to protect their merchant ships, and each time they would enter the waterways of the port of Shanghai and cruise the waterways of the harbor, and if they found the ships that had upset them, they would go up to find fault. ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "If the British also have warships, it will be difficult to deal with, our maritime patrol ships do not have the ability to hit large warships at all, I don't know what kind of warships the British came, if it is a small gunboat, there is still hope to fight a dozen." ”

Lin Yuan then asked, "The British warship?" What model is it? ”

Chen Fei said helplessly: "Aren't you embarrassed for me? Also the model of the warship, where can I recognize it! ”

Lin Yuan thought for a while and asked, "Then you tell me what a warship looks like." ”

Chen Fei said: "These three warships are one big and two small, the big of which is similar to the warships we have seen before, there are two masts in the front and rear, there is a chimney in the middle of the mast, there are guns on the side of the ship, there are also guns in the front and rear of the deck, and the small ones do not have many guns on them, and they look much smaller." ”

Lin Yuan asked, "How many cannons are there on that big warship?" ”

Chen Fei said: "There are four main guns of the largest caliber, and there are twelve main guns on the other two sides. ”

Lin Yuan nodded and said: "I think this is very likely to be the British Navy's Majesty-class battleship, the English name is 'Majestic', this kind of battleship is the current main battleship of the British Navy, which was newly designed and manufactured by the British from 1895 to 1898, and is in the same vein as the Sovereign-class battleship that we killed with long-range self-propelled torgeodes. ”

"The other two small warships are most likely just two small destroyers, and the destroyers of this era are fast and are used to attack the torpedo boats that the other side is coming to sneak attack."

Chen Fei asked, "Then what should we do?" ”

Lin Yuan thought for a while and said, "Let's use mines!" ”

Chen Fei said in surprise: "What? With water mines! The Port of Shanghai is now the largest port in China, with hundreds of ships coming in and out every day. ”

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "You show off the lower limit of your muscular and simple-minded again, what you said are triggered mines, so they can be blown up by mistake, but what we want to use is non-triggered smart mines, which are specially designed to bomb British transport ships." ”

Lin Yuan explained: "When the ship is driving in the water, it will definitely cause a series of changes, for example, the ship's propeller rotates to make a sound, the hull is made of steel, which itself will cause a change in the magnetic field, and when the ship is moving, it will push the water away, which will cause a change in water pressure, which can be used as a detonation condition for mines." ”

"What I just said, that is, the three types of fuzes that are not triggered by mines: acoustic fuzes, magnetic fuses and water pressure fuzes, as well as composite fuses that combine these three fuses, our ships have a lot of non-triggered mines, and we will use them to bomb the British transport ships."

After hearing this, Chen Fei smiled and said, "You still say that I am muscular and simple-minded, so let me ask you, what did you do after you blew up the transport ship?" It's full of mineral sand, and when the ship breaks, these things go into the water, how can we get them out of the water? Can you give me a solution? ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "Didn't I just get information from the British?" In order to get my order, the British specially emphasized the safety of this batch of materials to me, and they said that the goods transported on their ships are using the latest transportation concept - container transportation, which puts the items to be transported in large containers, which is not only convenient for transportation, but also if the hull is damaged, the box will not be damaged when it enters the water. ”

"Our mines are very powerful, and after one explosion their ship will definitely sink, and we will send another tugboat over and let our divers go into the water and grab the container with a hook, which has hooks on it to facilitate the lifting of the container."

Chen Fei nodded, Lin Yuan stood up and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go to work." ”

Chen Fei asked, "What?" Shall we go and install mines now? ”

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "What kind of mines are installed, we are going to conduct reconnaissance in advance, and we will go to the hydrological monitoring team of the port." ”

Chen Fei asked, "Hydrological monitoring team?" What's that for? I've been here for days, and I didn't know there was such an organization at the port of Ludao. ”

Lin Yuan said: "The hydrological monitoring team monitors the waves, including the height of the waves, tides, etc., and also judges the weather conditions based on this information. ”

Chen Fei asked, "Then what are we going to do there?" Lin Yuan didn't answer Chen Fei, he pulled him and left, and said as he walked: "You will understand when you arrive." ”

Lin Yuan took Chen Fei around the port, and soon found the words of the hydrological monitoring team at a small wharf, Lin Yuan went in and took out a silver ticket, and the boatmen inside drove the boat and took Lin Yuan and Chen Fei to the fairway.

Chen Fei then asked, "What are we going to do?" Can you tell me now? ”

Lin Yuan pointed to the water with his hand and said, "Dive, look at the situation at the bottom of the river, if you can get up, I'll tell you." ”

Chen Fei said helplessly: "I don't have diving equipment, how can I dive?" ”

Lin Yuanha smiled and said, "When I went to the Marine Corps, how could I often hear the soldiers say that Comrade Chen Fei has dived well, and I heard that the record of your unit's naked diving of 60 meters was created by you. ”

Chen Fei stretched out his thumb helplessly and said, "You can do it!" Use words to me, I can't go down if I don't go down! Chen Fei said, took off his clothes, sat on the edge of the boat and was just about to enter the water, Lin Yuan grabbed him and said, "Check out how deep the water is, the silt situation under the water and the visibility under the water, come back and tell me, do you understand?" ”

Chen Fei nodded, held a lead block, put his back into the water, dived into the water, and swam back after less than a minute, saying: "I looked at the situation under the water, and I almost figured it out, the water here is about fifteen meters deep, and the water is full of stones, very solid, no silt, and the visibility is also very good." ”

After hearing this, Lin Yuan nodded again and again, and said, "That's good, so that we can lay mines, do you know the way?" The fuse of the non-triggered smart mine is more sensitive, and I am worried that the underwater conditions are not good, and if there is too much silt, I am afraid that it will affect the sensor of the mine and make the mine unable to work. ”
