Fengxian Jiangshan

Chapter 637 Halo Shattered

Three or four years have passed since Fengjun started owning the first submarine. During this time, the submarine force has been unknown. Even shallow-water gunboats can be on the news, but there is no news about submarines. Not sure if China actually has submarines.

Under this strict secrecy, Fengjun's underwater muscles have swelled, especially after World War I, Germany exported a large amount of military technology to Fengjun, including the full set of U-shaped submarine technology, and Fengjun successively transferred from Germany purchased shipyard equipment and got a number of supporting factories in the United States, Britain and other countries.

With these as support, coupled with the ingenuity of countless Chinese workers, Fengjun produced a total of two levels of submarines, all of which were put into actual combat.

The code name of the first-class submarine is Yasha. The surface displacement of the Yasha-type submarine is only 254 tons, the underwater displacement is 303 tons, the surface speed is 13 knots, the underwater speed is 6.9 knots, and the endurance is 1600 nautical miles. torpedoes and 533 sea mines.

There is no doubt that the Yasha-type submarine is designed and positioned as a near-shore submarine, and its main areas of responsibility are the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea. The Fengjun has already built twelve of them, and four more are lying on the berth, which will be completed soon.

The small and flexible Yaksha submarine, just like its name, is a loyal sea guard. The Yaksha patrolling the sea, the submarine of two to three hundred tons, is extremely difficult to be found in the muddy water of the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea. very serious, even fatal.

The code name of the second-level submarine is Sea Wolf. The tonnage of this level of submarine has been greatly increased. The surface displacement has reached 769 tons, the underwater displacement has reached 871 tons, the endurance has reached 8500 nautical miles, and it has five torpedo tubes.A total of 14 torpedoes were carried.

During the development of the Seawolf-class submarine, some German experts joined in. They learned from the experience of German submarines in World War I and added four watertight compartments, which greatly improved the survivability of the submarine.

With a battery life of more than 8000 nautical miles, the Seawolf-class submarine is fully capable of fighting in the open sea. It can even go out of the Pacific Ocean, cut off the Japanese sea lifeline, and trap this small island country on the narrow four islands.Of course it is not easy to do this.Dozens, even hundreds of submarines are needed, but now Fengjun has only produced three Seawolf-class submarines, and two more are on the berth.

Since the Mackensen entered the South China Sea and crossed the Taiwan Strait.There are two Seawolf-class submarines quietly tracking and protecting underwater, it can be said that in order to allow the Mackensen to return to Fengtian safely.Zhang Tinglan also invested heavily.

The commander of the Langyi submarine is Chen Shaokuan.Although he was born in the Fujian Navy, he is not used to the fact that the navy is turbulent, especially since he has also participated in the Paris Peace Conference and knows that this is a world where the weak prey on the strong. Without a strong navy, you can only be bullied.The fate of being divided.

After returning to the country, it happened that Fengjun was looking for military talents everywhere, so he naturally dug into Chen Shaokuan's head. He didn't want to join Fengjun at first.After all, in his view, the navy is a high-tech arm, which must be based on the strong support of the state, and its development will be limited after all with a local force.

But after arriving in Fengtian, he was overwhelmed by the industrial capabilities of the three eastern provinces, especially after visiting the Huludao Shipyard, and made up his mind to join the Fengjun group.Chen Shaokuan first stayed on the Yaksha-class submarine for more than half a year and was familiar with submarine operations.

Due to his outstanding performance, Chen Shaokuan was hand-picked by Zhang Tinglan as the captain when the No. [-] Seawolf-class boat was launched.After taking office, Chen Shaokuan also focused on training with all his strength, and every sailor had to undergo a strict competition assessment.Moreover, he also hired some German submarine sailors to humbly learn from them the experience of naval warfare.

Just when Chen Shaokuan and the others were concentrating on raising their troops, the Mackensen finally returned to China, and they were also ordered to come to meet the Mackensen.

Accompanied all the way, it was about to enter the Bohai Sea, the Japanese fleet suddenly appeared, intercepted the Mackensen, and even wanted to take it captive to Japan.Through the periscope, Chen Shaokuan could see clearly that the Japanese were so arrogant that they had completely angered all the soldiers on the submarine.

They asked for battle repeatedly, but Chen Shaokuan did not agree. He knew very well that his mission was to protect the Mackensen and return to China safely, not to engage in naval battles with the Japanese.Even if he can sink the King Kong, the nearby Qingdao Port and Lushun Port all have Japanese fleets.

As long as there is a war here, the Japanese will immediately send a powerful fleet to intercept the Mackensen.So Chen Shaokuan had to wait until night fell, when the Japanese were least vigilant.And he knew that Feng Jun had sent a submarine to carry out night minelaying operations at Lushunkou.

As long as it succeeds, the Japanese warships will not be able to get out for the time being, and the Mackensen can quickly return to the three eastern provinces with its own speed, and truly return to Fengjun's hands safely.

So he had to wait, not only him, but also the Wolf II submarine. The two wolves in the sea were staring at the Japanese warship, looking for opportunities to fight.

Gradually the clock pointed to ten o'clock in the evening, and Chen Shaokuan felt that it was about the same time. At this time, the Japanese spread the news. When Lushun responded, it would be early in the morning. This time was enough for the Fengjun submarine to seal the port. .

Calculating the time correctly, Chen Shaokuan quietly ordered the submarine to float up, and through the periscope, locked onto the largest battleship King Kong.Due to the drag of the Mackensen, the King Kong's speed is also very slow, and two warships have been separated to drag the Mackensen. There is also a lack of defense forces around it, and it is at the most vulnerable time.

Chen Shaokuan locked onto the huge warship. At this moment, the soldiers on the entire submarine seemed to hold their breath.On the first day of enlistment, every Fengjun sailor would visit the Memorial Hall of the Beiyang Navy, look at the relics of Deng Shichang, Liu Buchan and others, and listen to the stories of the veterans who had personally experienced the naval battle.

The shout of "Crash Shen Yoshino!" rang in their ears. In a trance, Chen Shaokuan and the others seemed to feel that more than 20 years ago, the bloody heroic spirits in this sea area came again, and watched with their own eyes how the descendants took revenge. Shame!

"emission!"

Chen Shaokuan squeezed out these two words from between his teeth, and immediately three torpedoes shot towards the King Kong. Chen Shaokuan and the others didn't have time to look at their results at all. After firing the torpedoes, they hurriedly sneaked in. in the water.

At this time, the Japanese were sending another small boat to check the situation on the Mackensen. Just as they were talking and laughing, and didn't care, three waves shot out on the sea,

Seeing this scene, the Japanese sailors instantly became icy cold as if struck by lightning.

"Enemy attack, dodge!"

Most of the Japanese sailors didn't know what happened, even the captain Muta Kametaro was confused, but when he noticed the torpedo traces in the sea, it was too late.

Among the three torpedoes, except for one that passed close to the bow, the other two all hit the middle of King Kong.The sound of violent explosions was like the roar of a dragon. Two violent explosions pushed the King Kong even above the surface of the water, and then fell heavily again.

The big guy with more than 3 tons couldn't bear the twists and turns. Two black holes with a size of three meters on the starboard side appeared in front of everyone. Sea water rushed in along these two holes. There was a rollover.

And with the sound of steel breaking, King Kong's wounds became bigger and bigger, and the sailors on the deck couldn't bear the fluctuation, and fell into the sea like dumplings.The icy sea water instantly made them lose all their strength, and they could only struggle desperately.

At this time, there was another violent explosion inside the King Kong, and a ball of flames sprang up from the middle, blasting the deck open, and mushroom-shaped black smoke appeared in the mid-air, and the hull passed through the explosion. , has inevitably begun to break, became two pieces, and quickly sank into the sea water.

Counting from being hit, Kongo sank completely in the sea in less than 5 minutes, and the surrounding warships had no time to rescue them. Most of the people on board sank with the ship, including Muta Kametaro. into the sea.

Battleships have always been known for their hard armor and heavy armor, and their defensive capabilities have always been strong, but the Japanese King Kong is a tragedy. The warships built by the British themselves do not pay attention to defense, and this King Kong is experimental, not mature at all. In addition to the commendable speed, other products are not comparable to the world's advanced level.

Of course, this is also related to the torpedo attack. If a warship is hit by a few shells, it won't do much, but if it gets hit by a torpedo, it will at least hurt its muscles and bones.The reason is very simple, that is, sea water cannot be compressed like air. After the torpedo explodes, the energy will pass through the sea water and be transmitted to the warship.

The water pressure will multiply the explosion effect, and what is even more unlucky for the King Kong is that the ammunition room was hit, and a serious explosion occurred from the inside. At the bottom of the sea, the people on the boat also fed the bastards.

In history, King Kong was also the only battleship in Japan that was sunk by a submarine during World War II. At this time, King Kong just advanced the history by more than 20 years, and the one who sank this big ship also became a Chinese.

Since the establishment of the Japanese Combined Fleet, it has successively defeated the Beiyang Navy and the Russian Pacific Fleet.In two consecutive wars, one of Japan's main battleships sank. This can be called a miracle, but this miracle has finally come to an end. With the sinking of the King Kong, the halo that shrouded the Japanese combined fleet was finally extinguished.

The Japanese soldiers on the other warships were all stunned when they saw the blazing King Kong. How could such a huge sea castle sink if they said it was sinking? They couldn't believe it!

"It's a submarine, a Chinese submarine, smash these despicable guys!" The Japanese, who was a little more sober, gave an order angrily.But these Japanese people didn't know where the submarine went. They were like headless chickens. At this moment, a periscope was aimed at a warship again. (To be continued..)
