The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

Chapter 694 Siege of the Second Fleet

() The gap in technology is so large that it cannot be solved by imagination at all. The template dug out from the interstellar age game by the super intelligent brain is transformed into a battleship design. Can mature gadgets compare?

The hull built by the fully intelligent robot production line is several orders of magnitude simpler than the contemporary manual assembly and welding, with lower cost and higher performance. The structure formed after thousands of simulation tests is beyond the imagination of the Japanese!Without these many transcendent elements, how could the undefeated record of immortality come from! ..

Therefore, people all over the world use conventional judgments to think that it is impossible for Chinese talents to learn to build warships for only a few years, and it is impossible to design and manufacture warships with excellent performance. This is fundamentally wrong.And this kind of mistake is still misleading Nagumo Chuichi!

Nagumo Chuichi thought it was purely technological assistance, or simply said that it was the precision caused by the fire control correction provided by radar or something, but the excellent performance of the hull itself and the cannon was not He ignored all the counterfeit American products, can it be compared with the Japanese counterfeit British products?We are the same ancestors as Americans!

The second round of Qishe of the two ships of "Songshan" arrived first, and they were still all within the hit area. Two of the shells formed near misses and almost formed the effect of water drifting shells close to the water surface, but they exploded within 50 meters. The huge water column even stuck to the side of the "Kii", and the armor-piercing projectiles contained insufficient ammunition to allow the Japanese ship to escape, but the impact of the water wave still caused the ship to tremble and shake, and the work of aiming and preparing was suddenly interrupted Chaos, start all over again! ..

The thick jet of water "boomed" on the battleship, and from the top of the bridge to the bottom, dozens of tons of sea water were poured into it, flowing with a splash.On the two anti-aircraft turrets exposed outside, the gunners in a group of four were slapped on the steel wall by the thick water jet of the house, and three of them were hanged on the spot. Broken bones, and two more were finished on the spot.The remaining three eyes looked at their mouths full of blood, breathing out but not breathing in.

Nan Yunzhong saw it clearly, and couldn't help frowning again.This is another shortcoming of the battleship design. There are quite a lot of anti-aircraft guns arranged around the bridge. The machine gun will be damaged if it hits it, the defense ability.Still too bad.

"I really don't know how the fully enclosed turrets on the Chinese warships were designed and how they work!"

Nagumo Chuichi didn't sigh because he was almost hit, it was something that was bound to happen, he just felt sorry for the strange technological gap between China and Japan, which should have been reversed.

Not only him, but also the Western powers are not sure how the Chinese did it.It is the Germans with the strongest relationship, in terms of battleship construction technology.It is also secretive, it is absolutely confidential.

On the surface, the "Taishan-class" battleship, which is now the main force, has a simple and smooth surface structure, all turrets are wrapped in thick carapaces, and the number is much smaller than similar countries in other countries.

Experts from various countries have also tried it.If you follow their usual method, if you use a separate motor to push it, the electricity needed can paralyze the battleship at once, and that can't be done at all; if you use steam to push the turret, the main gun and auxiliary gun can barely do it. arrive.But the desalinated water treatment pressure of the battleship is huge, not to mention the speed is not guaranteed, the design and structure of the battleship is twice as complicated, and the maintenance workload is terribly heavy.

Separately design a diesel engine or gasoline engine auxiliary?Even more impossible, there is no place to put them.The biggest possibility is electricity, but how did such a high-power electricity supply come from?How do they coordinate?How to ensure that dozens of large and small turrets work without problems?There are so many radars... I am afraid that the crowded crew in the battleship don't even have hammocks to sleep in?

Do not understand!

In any case, the gap is obvious, Nan Yunzhong can only hope that this gap will not bring a fatal blow.But still, the tonnage of the four capital ships he drives is more than 1 tons more than the opponent's overall. He doesn't believe that with such a big gap, the opponents will have stronger anti-strike capabilities and overall survivability !

"Boom!"

Near the third wave of artillery shells, the huge explosion caused the "Ki" to shake violently. Nagumo Zhongyi heard a series of ominous metal twisting and collision sounds, and the wailing of a large number of injured people, his face paled. Finally unable to maintain the distortion, he grabbed the phone and asked, "What's going on? Where is the damage?!"

The damage is huge!A shell flew close to the top of the starboard side at a very small angle, and smashed a transparent hole in the top of the rear bridge. A 127mm high-angle turret on the deck penetrated and exploded from the bottom. After it was blown to pieces, it formed a large hole billowing with fireworks, causing more than [-] casualties!

Another shell hit the side of the bow and pierced a hole. The gap torn out by the explosion made the battleship look like a dead sardine, let alone ugly!

Nan Yunzhong didn't care much about the destruction of the latter, what he paid attention to was the penetrating cannonball, which was too powerful!

You know, the warship's bow is a specially strengthened solid welding area, facing the entire armor layer. There are no people and equipment inside. In terms of anti-strike ability, it is the only one except for the turret and the bridge. If it is pierced, it means that the opponent's armor-piercing projectile has an armor-piercing ability of at least 30mm at a distance of more than 400 kilometers... This has exceeded the thickness of the last armor of our own!Unscientific!

The armor-piercing capabilities of the main guns of various countries are absolutely confidential, but Nagumo Chuichi learned that the new generation of main guns equipped by the Americans, the 406mm mk6, seems to be the same as that of the Chinese battleships, and the armor-piercing ability should not be so strong. It is about the same as our own main gun, more than 30 kilometers, which is an absolutely safe distance, and it should not be able to penetrate the thickest armor on the sideboard!

Another thing that shocked him was the speed of shooting!My side fired the second shot, and the opponent's third salvo arrived. Although they had the advantage of being the first shot, the gap between them was less than ten seconds.However, the second salvo on my side didn't come out, and the opponent's shot fell down. There was a gap of more than 30 kilometers in between, almost 40 seconds to 1 minute. That is enough to show that their shooting speed is at least faster than my own. Halfway up, or even higher!

what does that mean?Nan Yunzhong was horrified, as long as the opponent kept it up, it was equivalent to using two ships to display the total ammunition launch volume of the four ships on his side!Although the density is half of the difference, the accuracy can make up for it. The advantage of four to two has been evened out by more than half!

There is a faint feeling in his heart!Immediately asked the artillery chief: "What is the hit rate of our Qishe? Can you see it?"

The gunnery commander was in a bit of a dilemma. This distance, especially in the dark, was beyond his vision even though there was starlight.

Nanyun didn't make it difficult for him, and immediately asked the observation results of the peripheral destroyers, as well as the judgment of the night-time reconnaissance plane in the sky. The results showed that the second round of Qishe was completely empty!

This result is too normal. From more than 30 kilometers away, it is a record to be able to hit. Although the waves in the East Sea are not smooth, you can hardly feel the shaking on the battleship, and it is easier to aim. But after all, the tremors and waves generated by the battleships Shaking, that is a slight difference, and the deviation of a millimeter is magnified to be horrible. How far can the other party do it?

He couldn't figure it out, but he didn't have time to figure it out, because while the third round of shells was being prepared here, the fourth round had already hit him!

The caliber of the 406mm main gun, although the theoretical firing speed can reach 2 rounds per minute, it is almost impossible to do it in real fire, because re-aiming and other things take too much time, unless you do not increase the shell density purely. If you change the continuous shooting, you can basically conclude that the shells will fly all over the sky, after all, the sea is not the ground!

What's terrible is that the shells fired by the two ships of "Songshan" are almost the same density and precision every time. In the fourth round of salvo, one shell still hits. This time the precision is higher, and it hits directly on the starboard side. In front of the front, where the armor is the thickest, a full 356mm of armor was torn apart by armor-piercing shells weighing 1225 kilograms. The 50mm-thick lining and bulkhead of the second armor shell were also smashed, and the explosion exploded from the inside. The hole torn apart by the outward conflict caused thick smoke to billow, and a triple anti-aircraft gun above was damaged by the impact, and several soldiers were killed or injured!

Nanyun Zhongyi couldn't calm down at all. If this continues, he won't be able to stay in a few more rounds!Such a terrifying hit rate and armor-piercing ability were simply beyond his judgment, the opponent's shells must be weird!

The battleship "Owari", which was sailing at an interval of about one kilometer behind, was reminded by the light signal, and immediately sped up and rushed forward. The flagship "Ki" slowed down and retreated at the same time, allowing it to block in front of itself.It's just that it's not that easy to complete this formation change. The speed of the battleship is only so high, and it takes about 1 minute for two staggers, and this time is enough for the opponent to blast the fifth round!

The shells of the third round of the Japanese army are still empty!Even after adjusting the elements, it is still a very extravagant delusion to want to hit it 35 kilometers away!Wang Wenda drank coffee calmly in the flagship, turning a deaf ear to the constant explosions around him!

However, the Japanese army is very smart. After the two simultaneous shots, the four ships staggered, and the four waves of shells fell at intervals. It is better to form a close loss, but this is obviously difficult.

The fifth round of shells blasted out on time, exactly as calculated by Nagumo Chuichi. This time, a shell opened a garage-sized hole in the main funnel behind the bridge. The cracked edge and the bulletproof net on the top looked like The iron plate has been weathered for many years, and the shell exploded from the other side. The flying fragments punched seven or eight washbasin-sized holes in the chimney.

"Owari" finally rushed up to block the side at the critical moment.But at this moment, Wang Wenda heard hearty laughter from the radio, Xie Gangzhe, the commander of the North Sea Fleet, said happily, "Brother Wang, brother is not late?"

North Sea Fleet, in place! (To be continued.)
