Super Chief
Chapter 587: Excellent defensive position
The eastern capital, Norfolk, is located on the east bank of the estuary of the Elizabeth River, which almost overlaps with the future Norfolk Naval Port.
But compared to the Norfolk naval port of the later American Navy, the port built by the Yan and Huang tribes in Norfolk is a bit closer.
The later Norfolk military port was very large, and the deep-water wharf located at the outermost side of the mouth of the Elizabeth River was dedicated to docking aircraft carriers. For example, the famous Pier 14 and Pier 12.
A little bit closer to the inner pier, that is, from Pier 10 inward to Pier 4, most of the berk-class destroyers docked.
The docks in Xiangli are dedicated docks for submarines.
In general, the future Norfolk Naval Port was located at the mouth of the Elizabeth River. Once the warship leaves the port, it will turn north to enter the mouth of the James River, and then enter the Chesapeake Bay through the Simbulshur Strait. , And then enter the Atlantic Ocean through the Chesapeake Bay.
Generally speaking, because the Norfolk Naval Port is located in the interior of the bay, and the channel at the mouth of the Elizabeth River is very deep, it became the largest naval base of the American Navy in later generations.
Such an excellent natural deep-water harbor, Stone Bear would naturally not let it go, so the construction of Norfolk, the eastern capital, was started here.
However, because the Thirteenth Colony has not yet been recovered, the entire Chesapeake Bay cannot be recovered now. Therefore, the current Norfolk Port cannot be too close to the mouth of the James River. It can only be built at a distance from the mouth of the Elizabeth River. Next to the river bank, in the course of the later Norfolk and Portsmouth.
There is a straight line distance of more than ten kilometers from the James River. This long distance, coupled with the shore-based fortresses built along the banks of the river, is sufficient to defend against all attacks by foreign enemies.
Although it is far from the mouth of the river, the depth of the river is still sufficient. The fourth ship of the Iowa-class battleship built by the later American Navy during World War II, the battleship Wisconsin was docked at this location.
That is a super battleship with a full load and displacement of more than 50,000 tons!
Therefore, it is more than enough to serve as the Atlantic port of the Yanhuang tribe.
And the West Bank, about two kilometers south of the Elizabeth River from Norfolk Port, is where the Norfolk Shipyard is located.
The dusty stone bear and the others, accompanied by Dahe and other senior leaders of the Fourth Division, first came to Norfolk.
After all, this is the eastern capital designated by Shixiong, and the supplies have been very sufficient over the years, so Norfolk is still very good now.
Maybe it's not as good as Shangjing, but the gap is not much bigger.
And the defense here is very well done. Along the way, Shi Xiong saw no fewer than 30 places just by erecting a 105mm fort. Around Norfolk, in addition to the most advanced 105 cannon of the Yanhuang tribe, there are also many shooting positions for the 76 guns and 76 mortars.
It can be said that under the supply of almost no cost in these years, Norfolk has become an iron hedgehog with no way of speaking!
If anyone doesn't have long eyes and dare to come over and find fault, just these 105 heavy guns with a range of more than ten kilometers are enough to make them understand why the pot is made of iron!
Although later generations distinguished artillery calibers, artillery over 122 mm was considered a heavy artillery, and 105 mm artillery could only be regarded as a medium caliber artillery. But in this era, the 105mm artillery can definitely be regarded as the most difficult heavy artillery.
Although there are larger-caliber naval guns and fortress guns in this era, let alone the 105 heavy guns of the Yanhuang tribe, even the 55 mortars of the Grizzly Army can completely destroy those that can only fire solid shells. Artillery.
Although the number of 105 heavy artillery guns of the Yanhuang tribe is not much, and the heavy artillery weighing two tons is not even equipped with the first division of the Grim Bear Army. They are all used in the Norfolk and Shangjing defensive positions, but with 76 guns. And the mortar is more than enough to defend Norfolk.
Like this kind of 105 heavy artillery that can be used as a weapon in town, even if the European powers come to a battleship fleet, they will definitely not be able to withstand the 105 heavy artillery bombardment.
Don’t look at the current sailing battleships of the European powers being blown so big, but if it is against the 105 heavy artillery, it will definitely be scum. Even the first-class battleships of European powers, if they were hit by a few rounds of this 105 heavy artillery, they could directly tear a first-class battleship to pieces.
The best sailing battleship in this era is just a sailing battleship, a wooden battleship. The 105 heavy artillery fired a shell filled with nearly three kilograms of high-explosive Xiaohuazhang. This thing is just like playing a wooden battleship!
It is not an exaggeration to say that the 105 heavy artillery developed by the Yanhuang tribe may not be as powerful as the Krupp 105 artillery during World War I, but it is definitely not much worse. Using this heavy artillery to hit the current sailing battleship, to be honest, Shi Xiong himself felt that he was bullying...
Anyway, under the leadership of Dahe, the Fourth Division has done a great job in protecting Norfolk. Even if Shi Xiong looked at Norfolk's fortifications with the eyes of future generations, he couldn't fault it.
The reason why Norfolk was able to have the current defense measures in just eight years, there is no other reason, because under the order of the stone bear, the entire tribe spared no effort to provide.
It can be said that this seaport city was made forcibly with the power of the entire tribe!
can get this kind of care~www.readwn.com~ Among the entire Yanhuang tribe, apart from going to Beijing, there is only Norfolk.
The arrival of the Chief Chief, the Son of God, made the entire Norfolk completely hot.
Those tribes who had lived and worked step by step, after learning that the Chief Chief had come to Norfolk, almost all of them were dispatched, wanting to take a closer look at this great Chief Chief.
There are many tribesmen who were previously conquered by the Grim Bear Army led by the Stone Bear, but after these years of assimilation, they have long forgotten their previous tribes.
Now this beautiful life has made these people completely regard themselves as members of the Yanhuang tribe, and no one wants to live the life of the past without food.
As usual, a grand bonfire dinner was held in the Emirates Square in this port city on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. Tens of thousands of people gathered in the Emirates Square on this evening, and enjoyed a wonderful night with the great chieftain, the son of God.
Chief’s Square is named after Shixiong, the chief chief of the tribe. At the center of the square is an eight-meter-high sculpture that was carved by an artist from Europe for three years.
This sculpture is the image of a stone bear riding a fire and phoenix bow and arching an arrow. It is extremely realistic!
This is also the area with the most traffic in the city every day, and a large number of people come here to worship this sculpture every day.
Now, under this sculpture, these Yanhuang tribe members finally captured a real chieftain of the son of God...
