957 swept across the peninsula
"Is it so urgent, is it by telegram? Words that can be implied by a little bit. Kagesa asked.
"No, it's worth sending someone to take the catalog on a plane, even if it's a few days of delay. Not a word about this kind of thing can be sent by telegram. They must be very careful about their keywords, and if they are a little bit wrong, they will definitely attract the attention of 'them', and maybe they will find it again. ”
"Keywords?"
"Yes, one of the most effective ways of future intelligence warfare, using an omnipotent surveillance network to spy on even everyone, but it's too late to explain."
"Is this nuclear fusion weapon dozens of times more powerful than *? When I was at a meeting at the Konoe family, I heard from Yukawa. He said you asked him to envision the configuration. ”
"Yes, *explosions have theoretical limits, *none. The maximum power of statistics can be as great as ...... The equivalent is about 50 million tons. ”
"Then at that time, why didn't we do this thing first......"
"Because Japan does not have a fusion bomb configuration, and Kasuga Maru does not have a ready-made feasible plan, all the information here is just conjecture and intelligence collected through various means in the decades after the war, and there are many wrong plans that have been deliberately released by * countries to confuse others, and as far as I know, after the five victorious powers after the war, no other country can find a way. From the point of view of prioritization, of course, it is necessary to give priority to researching what is easier to achieve*. Yes, half a year ago, I asked Mr. Yukawa to start thinking about the configuration, which was just an experiment in my head, and I didn't expect to salvage the relevant information at that time. Hate, Onishi pulled me down...... Months were wasted. ”
After Makino finished saying such a long string of words, he began to pant and was obviously a little overdrawn.
"I see, let's go see what else has been salvaged."
The crowd pushed Makino towards the piles of items in front of them, and some people were shuttling between the piles of items, constantly taking pictures for archiving. There were some things they didn't understand, so they covered them with canvas and set them aside.
Makino tilted his body, looking at the salvaged things, as well as the rough classification card on the side, he didn't speak, or nodded slightly, which means that the classification is roughly correct. Sometimes he would stop and give him a priority.
"We're like asking, what is this?" Kataoka pointed to a machine.
"This ...... This is a 3D printer, but it looks badly damaged and classified as useless, so don't waste any effort on renovating it. ”
"Understood."
"Well, this ......"
"The teaching model of gas turbofan engines for ships or power plants is also classified as useless for the time being. The technology is too complex and involves many material disciplines, which cannot be gnawed down in a short time. ”
The crowd gathered around him and continued to move forward, and some people kept uncovering the covered cloths, and it seemed that the focus of salvage was on medium-sized objects, which was probably limited by the salvage capacity that could be carried with numbers.
"This, the J79 turbojet engine provided by the Self-Defense Forces. Imitation in a short period of time, not optimistic, pass. ”
The crowd kept walking.
"Teacher, how is this one?"
"Well, this is a key reverse ......," Makino finally nodded, "the first post-war axial engine, stronger than the Sakura." It is expected that the aircraft can be accelerated to the speed of sound. ”
"We didn't know much about the small * in front of us. The main reason is that the method of manipulation was not figured out, and the warhead was not found. A special battery was found, though. ”
"Oh, small*?"
Someone else uncovered a piece of cloth, and a yellow "*" less than 3 meters long was placed on the shelf. It uses a pump pusher behind it, and there is a thin line dragging near the rudder above the device, but it seems to be broken, and there is a pair of horizontal rudders in front. * At the very front, there is also a visible optical window.
"Quick...... Quick, push me over and take a look. Turn on the nearby lights. Makino suddenly became agitated.
"Yes."
Makino walked around the thing a few times under the nurse's push, and he realized what he was seeing, but out of caution, he stopped talking a few times.
Makino is familiar with Kasugamaru's ship-collision materials, although it is impossible to be specific to everything, but the specific system, the big classification, the mirror in his heart, and this thing, not in the classification he knows, although he can roughly understand what this thing is for.
"When I found this thing, the fiber behind it was broken?"
"Fiber? Forehead...... This ......" Kataoka immediately flipped through the notes, but there was no detailed record of this thing, only that after it was fished, it was roughly classified as a small special*.
"Makino-kun, what is this?"
Kagesa Zhenzhao couldn't help but ask.
"It's not something *, it's a diving scout."
He reached out and stroked the glass cover in front of him, which contained as many as three optical devices.
"Advanced?"
"The nautical equipment that can be recovered from a submarine, simply a small submarine, is naturally much more advanced than the most advanced*. But that's not the point......" he said, suddenly laughing.
"What's the point?"
"This is not the Kasuga Maru's carry, Japan has such a thing, but because it is useless for the Kasuga Maru's mission, it was not on the ship, and you look at its diameter, it is obviously for military use, and it must be adapted to the * tube, which is much smaller than the Japanese detector. This...... It should be something that 'they' left behind. ”
"Them?"
"That's right, it's theirs, it's not just optics that are used to gather marine intelligence, but also side-scan sonar; Autopilot probably failed. So it got lost in the labyrinthine shipwreck, unable to return. ”
"Really?"
"It's true. Hurry up and take it apart. It must have more advanced navigation, driving, reconnaissance and battery devices than *" Makino came to his senses, got up with a bang, threw off the blanket, and the rest of the people did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly rushed up to dismantle it.
"You're saying they've entered Kasugamaru?"
"That's obvious, those divers didn't die from a mistake in the pressurization procedure, they must have done it, they're in the vicinity of Kasuga Maru right now."
"Will they destroy Kasugamaru?"
"If they could do it, they must have done it a long time ago, you see this thing, it's actually unmanned. Their personnel shouldn't be able to enter Kasugamaru yet? Maybe they don't have qualified divers? It's very likely, yes, that we have to take care of our scuba gear and helium. ”
"Rest assured, it has always been under strict management as a strategic material."
Vietnam's Golden Ou Peninsula has become the focus of the entire Southeast Asian battlefield.
Just when Sakagaki was about to smuggle the main force under the nose of Chu Tingchang, the entire front was in a certain silence, and only on the southernmost peninsula of Vietnam, Chu Tingchang launched an attack. He gave priority to the distribution of supplies to Huang Tianyang, hoping to solve the airfield of the Japanese army on the peninsula.
Huang Tianyang launched this attack in strict accordance with Chu Tingchang's plan of dividing and attacking together.
Concentrating forces has always been the main principle of Chu Tingchang's use of troops, but now it must be guarded against*, so the offensive strategy has changed.
In addition to the dispersion of troops, the offensive also strengthened cooperation with the Viet Minh guerrillas to make up for the intelligence shortcomings. Since the beginning of 1943, the Japanese army began to strengthen its own special infiltration warfare capabilities, trying to use irregular warfare against Chu Tingchang's regular warfare, and Chu Tingchang fought back with his own way.
The main offensive force was the new Cadillac M5 tank, which was faster and farther than the earlier Stewart, and was better suited to jungle warfare and long-distance combat. The new weapons that the Japanese side has invested are the newly acquired anti-tank*.
According to the information of the Viet Minh, Huang Tianyang's tank bypassed the main defensive barrier of the enemy's large number of mines and quickly attacked the enemy's rear, and then the following engineering infantry launched a frontal attack on the enemy and simultaneously cleared mines.
There are two types of anti-tank * newly developed by the Japanese army, one is a self-forging fragmentation type that uses a magnetic fuse, which is made according to the Kasuga Maru drawings and can penetrate the bottom armor of the tank, and the other is a track-damaged type that uses a large number of non-metallic materials and is difficult to detect by mine detectors. It should be said that it is very targeted.
None of this has ever been seen before in history. The Japanese army's technology in such as self-forging fragmentation and hollow-charge ammunition is not yet mature, but penetrating the bottom of the tank is not a problem, and the magnetic fuze technology is more mature because of the use of *.
Fortunately, the Viet Minh guerrillas in Ho Chi Minh have been monitoring the deployment of the Japanese army and reporting various information in a timely manner. The guerrillas noticed that all the Japanese soldiers who were laying mines were unarmed, and even the steel helmets and bayonets had to be strictly recycled. Such a strange situation prompted Chief Chu Tingchang to ask the Vietminh to steal a few* for study.
However, when Huang Tianyang attacked, he hadn't figured out the enemy's new* technical characteristics, because the one sent to steal* was killed for no reason. Huang Tianyang did not dare to rush forward, and deliberately waited for a few minesweepers to be sent from the rear, using front-mounted rolling minesweepers.
When the frontal attack was launched, it was night, so the infantry who followed closely behind the tanks saw the most spectacular scene, the minesweeping tanks were not only opening a road, and everywhere they went, the ground began to explode, and there were no fires and waves of the usual explosions, but countless straight lights, screaming, crumbling into the sky at various angles, and then dragging brilliant colors down, like festive fireworks. What fell, it was all hot, twisted metal, which seemed to be copper.
The Japanese didn't do nothing, they were always trying to adapt to the war, they combined the various new weapon theories on the Kasuga Maru with precious copper, and completed these new toys, but apparently messed up again.
The anticipatory infiltration of the Japanese army behind enemy lines on the peninsula could not be carried out at all, and the Viet Minh guerrillas were better suited to the jungle than the guerrilla units trained at the Nakano School. The early methods of special warfare, which used to easily blend in with the refugee crowd in North China and inquire about the whereabouts of the Eighth Route Army, simply did not work here. The closer the Indochina Peninsula was to the south, the less obvious the East Asian ethnicity was and the Malay ethnicity was more prominent, which made it difficult for the Japanese army to penetrate.
Soon, the poisoned* and the-stained bamboo sticks in the trap gained the upper hand, and their superiority far surpassed the Japanese new concept of expensive construction*. Of course, Chu Tingchang also noticed that the Vietminh guerrillas were the most knowledgeable and learned local troops he had encountered since he swept through Burma, Thailand and Cambodia.
