Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

The British plan is like this. More than [-] warships of the British home fleet that have sailed into the Baltic Sea have arrived in Narva, and they will use the naval guns on the battleships to attack the Chinese army that is attacking Narva!

The more than 200 battleships in the UK are all battleships of the era of giant guns. Among them, there are 100 dreadnoughts equipped with [-]-inch guns, and the remaining [-] battleships are cruisers or For destroyers, some guns have a caliber of more than [-] mm, and some have a caliber of more than [-] mm.

The gunpowder delivery volume of these [-] warships is equivalent to thousands of artillery pieces of the army. When these [-] warships are put into the battlefield, it is equivalent to airdropping dozens of artillery divisions to the German [-]th Heavy Armored Division!That's why the German emperor rejected Schlieffen's plan to prevent the war, and Moltke and Adenauer were relieved.

The British fleet was stationed in the port of Helsinki at this time. They left the port of Helsinki immediately after receiving the order to attack, and approached Narva. Narva is right by the sea. Large-caliber heavy artillery and medium-caliber artillery can completely reach Narva's China. army, while the Chinese army has no navy in the Baltic.

The British home fleet is an important maritime force. Of course, Lin Yuan will not ignore them. The agents of the General Intelligence Bureau bought a house in Helsinki with a view of the port, and watched the warships in the port all day long. The agent sent a message.

When Lin Yuan learned that the British mainland fleet was rushing to Narva, his heart trembled. If these dreadnoughts were to confront his fleet at sea, he would not be afraid at all, because these dreadnoughts were basically targets in front of missiles, but if These dreadnoughts bombard their army with heavy artillery, which is bound to bring great losses to their army!

Lin Yuan sorted out his forces in St. Petersburg that can attack the British fleet. The air force is definitely the trump card for winning with one blow. Although the J-25 does not carry anti-ship missiles, the H-[-] is enough for the British fleet, especially the H-[-] equipment. armor-piercing explosive shells.

Each of these armor-piercing explosive bombs weighs a full 1000 kilograms. The front is an explosively formed warhead, which is used to penetrate the target's protective shell, and the rear is filled with 300 kilograms of RDX explosives. This kind of bomb was specially made by Lin Yuan to deal with it The enemy's army-level underground command post is more than enough to blow up warships.

These British warships are still old warships with very few anti-aircraft guns. They are unable to resist Hong Yi's bombing by themselves, and the British air force base is far away in the mainland, and fighter jets are unable to escort the battleships.

Although Lin Yuan's air force has a huge advantage over the British warships, he can't directly bomb the British warships. After all, China and Britain are not in full-scale war, and Lin Yuan doesn't want to start a full-scale war now. Resume and restore.

But the British warships did not give Lin Yuan time. They were heading towards Narva, and the shells would fall on the Chinese army in two hours. Lin Yuan thought to himself that he only had two hours to prepare.

Lin Yuan picked up the phone and first ordered the bomber unit at the St. Petersburg Air Force Base to complete preparations for attacking British warships. Then he dialed the number of the French embassy, ​​found the French ambassador, and sent an inquiry telegram to the UK through the French ambassador.

The United Kingdom quickly replied, saying in the telegram: "Our fleet of the British Empire is conducting drills in the Gulf of Finland, and we are not targeting other countries. Please do not overreact to China."

Lin Yuan scolded inwardly when he saw the telegram, what a cunning British people, your warships have shrouded my army under artillery fire, and you still say you won’t target other countries!

Lin Yuan was walking around the room when a clever idea suddenly came into his mind. He picked up the phone and said, "Pick me up with Meng Tingkai, Commander of the Third Division of the Air Force."

When the phone was connected at a short time, Lin Yuan asked directly, "How are you getting ready?"

Meng Tingkai replied: "Report to Marshal Lin, we are all ready. The reconnaissance plane has found the location of the British warship. We can take off at any time to bomb the British warship."

Lin Yuan asked: "Do you have any information on British warships? Do you have such things as the range of naval guns?"

Meng Tingkai said, "The intelligence department has these things."

Lin Yuan said: "Very well, you immediately calculate and sort out the range of the naval guns, and then create a safe zone for the army based on this range, do you understand what I mean?"

Meng Tingkai said: "The safe zone is to prevent the enemy's naval guns from hitting it? Right?"

Lin Yuan said: "That's right, that's what it means. The safe zone of our army is the no-navigation zone for British warships. You must not allow British warships to enter the no-navigation zone. You announced that you will conduct bombing exercises in the no-navigation zone. No ships are allowed to sail, do you understand?"

Meng Tingkai replied loudly: "This subordinate understands!"

Lin Yuan suddenly emphasized his tone, and said: "I only give you half an hour to complete this order. After half an hour, if I haven't received your announcement of 'no sailing', you can go to Heilongjiang Farm to feed Pig."

Meng Tingkai hurriedly said, "This subordinate understands!"

Meng Tingkai immediately organized his staff to formulate the no-fly zone. The process was not strenuous. The intelligence staff only took ten minutes to formulate the no-fly zone based on the range of the British naval guns, and then issued a notice to the world. The third division of the Chinese Air Force At 1899:4 on April 3, 13, St. Petersburg time, an air-to-sea bombing exercise will be conducted in the Gulf of Finland at 56° to 59° north latitude and 25° to 28° west longitude. Vessels from all countries are advised to avoid it.

The Third Division of the Air Force tuned the military radio station to a civilian frequency and broadcast at a frequency of once a minute. It is impossible for the British Navy's home fleet to receive it.

The Commander of the Home Fleet of the British Navy was also a well-known British naval commander in the Lin Yuan era - John Arbuthnott Fisher. He was known as one of the most outstanding reformers in the history of the Royal Navy. In the Lin Yuan era , He actively promoted many naval technological reforms, such as replacing coal with fuel oil, etc., allowing the British Navy to maintain its advantage in the next few decades.

John Abbasnord Fisher was also one of the earliest proponents of missiles. He used to speak out on many occasions to replace naval guns with missiles. The world was raging, and Fisher's outcry was ignored.

After the British Far East Fleet was completely wiped out by the Chinese fleet, missile doctrine replaced the big-ship cannon doctrine, and some people in the UK stood up and advocated that the battleships and cruisers that had already been built be sealed up, and this large expenditure was allocated to the Naval Research Institute for research and development. Missiles, at which point Fisher stood up again, adamantly opposing these proposals.
