Base System of Bashu Heroes

After the beachhead position was consolidated, Liu Minghao led the team to continue to advance. Dongfang Zhenhua, who was on the 133 cruiser named after the five divisions of the 22nd Army of the Sichuan Army, was also anxious at this time. A patrol boat came to report: The date of docking at Dagang Pier.

Our warship and the warships in the waters near Xuejia Island have rushed to Xuejia Island together.

Qingdao Navy Dagang Pier and Xuejiadao Pier are stationed with four cruisers, three destroyers and one frigate, as well as countless small gunboats, too many to count. The so-called First Fleet of the Sichuan Navy only has three cruisers and two

Destroyers, four torpedo boats, three cruisers, and one was a modified Japanese warship captured during the Nanjing Defense War, with a total tonnage of no more than 40,000 tons. Although the two 8,000-ton cruisers and destroyers that had just been commissioned were superior in terms of gunfire and speed.

It is incomparable to the Japanese warships, but the officers and soldiers on the ships have not experienced actual combat. Dongfang Zhenhua is really worried. The Japanese army only has two heavy cruisers with over 10,000 tons, which is almost twice the tonnage of the Sichuan army.

Dongfang Zhenhua in the telescope is closely observing the battlefield situation on Xuejia Island. The current situation can only be resolved quickly, occupy Xuejia Island as soon as possible, use shore artillery fire to confront the Japanese navy, or use its own speed of 37 knots to fight against the Japanese navy.

The navy raced and called for air force support after daybreak.

In the headquarters of the Itagaki Brigade in Xuejia Island, the captain Yuta Itagaki is also in a state of distress. The China Navy has been completely wiped out. The Japanese base camp has always been relatively weak in defense of ports and islands. He is the only one on Xuejia Island who has an island several kilometers in size.

The brigade is stationed.

Hearing the gunfire at the beachhead, Yuta Itagaki, who was drunk last night, was immediately frightened. He came to the headquarters in a hurry. He had just stepped into the headquarters to defend the beachhead. The squadron leader came to report that the beachhead was

Already lost.

The furious Itagaki Yuta raised his hand and gave the squadron leader a slap in the face. "Baga! Fight back immediately and regain the beachhead."

The squadron's long-term Baoguang muttered: "The Sichuan Navy's naval support artillery fire is fierce, and the landing force has already defended the beachhead. Your Excellency, Lieutenant Commander, I suggest that we still hold on to the main position and wait for reinforcements."

"The Sichuan Army Navy?" Itagaki Yuta was slightly startled, raised his hand and said loudly. "Baga, where did the Sichuan Army get its navy? Don't make alarmist remarks to damage the morale of our Imperial Army."

Kubo Hikaru's face was full of grievance, he touched his already red and swollen face and said loudly: "Itagaki-kun doesn't believe it, go and see it yourself, how dare my subordinates speak alarmist words!"

Itagaki Yuta came to the frontline headquarters. Kubo Mitsuo was right. On the sea, the artillery of the Sichuan Army warships was spitting out clouds of flames. On the beach, Sichuan Army soldiers charged towards the headquarters one after another. Xuejia Island was already in danger.

"Requesting support from the naval fleet and aviation force, go quickly..." After the order was issued, Itagaki Yuta suddenly became unstable and fell to the ground.

The sky was dawning, and the sea breeze was mixed with the astringent smell. A layer of mist slowly rose from Mount Laoshan, getting thicker and thicker.

On the sea surface of Xuejia Island, thick fog also began to spread, and it became bigger and bigger. The visual distance was less than 20 meters. Dongfang Zhenhua smiled. In such foggy weather, he first thought of the strike precision of gunboat artillery and radar.

After accepting the task of producing warships and aircraft, Scholar finally produced a multi-functional radar based on the information of the base vehicle after several months of hard work. The radar system of Xuzhou Airport, the radar system of self-propelled howitzers and tanks were all produced by Scholar and

It was developed by the scientific research team by itself. After the radar came out, the fire control system was also born.

The fire control systems on the 133 cruisers and destroyers were developed based on the American mk-8 fire control system in the late World War II. Some of the electronic components were processed and manufactured by ourselves, and their functions have reached the level of the late 1940s.

Although this fire control system is only an experimental product and is currently only used on warships, Dongfang Zhenhua is already very satisfied. With this set of things, in the dense fog on the sea, even though its own naval fleet has no actual combat experience, at least it will not be in a

As a striker, you can escape unscathed even if there is no chance of winning in five versus eight!

At 6:12 a.m. on the first day of the New Year in 2039, on the Jiaozhou Bay, 60 nautical miles away from the coast of Qingdao, the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet encountered the Sichuan Navy for the first time in the Jiaozhou Bay waters.

There was mist on the sea, and visibility was extremely low. Both China and Japan formed a wild goose formation. After discovering the Chinese fleet, the Japanese fleet did not change its formation, but charged directly towards the Chinese fleet.

At this time, the Sichuan fleet's radar actually played no role. At the same time that the Sichuan fleet discovered the Japanese fleet, the warships in the first echelon of Japan's third fleet also knew the specific location of the Sichuan fleet.

The first echelon of the Japanese fleet are all old warships. Their purpose in this battle is to entangle the Sichuan fleet, consume the warships' shells and the physical strength of the soldiers, and create opportunities for the 10,000-ton cruisers that follow closely.

Xiao Riben’s move is really vicious.

This vanguard fleet is not bad in strength. It has one cruiser, one armored frigate, and two destroyers. In addition to not having a unified fire control system, its artillery caliber and maximum speed are not much worse than the Sichuan fleet. The Sichuan navy wants

Annihilating it requires a certain amount of time and effort.

"Turn 30 degrees to the left, maintain the formation, attack the first echelon of the Japanese army, and ignore the fleet behind" Dongfang Zhenhua gave the order.

This group of old warships was not in Dongfang Zhenhua's eyes. Although he knew that they were Japanese bait, Dongfang Zhenhua had to face them head-on. Moreover, the purpose of these Japanese warships was to entangle the Sichuan army.

fleet, disrupting the formation of the Sichuan fleet and creating conditions for the heavy cruiser fleet behind.

It was very difficult to get rid of them and it took a long time to deal with them, so Dongfang Zhenhua simply ate them as side dishes.

The No. 134 cruiser that captured the Japanese ship and modified it has been rushing ahead and fired the first shot at a distance of 8,000 meters from the Japanese fleet.

This is the first time that the Chinese and Japanese navies have had such a large-scale naval battle at sea since the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894.

This is also the first actual combat since the 134 cruiser was equipped with a radar fire control system. The radar-controlled fire control system instantly uses the radio waves it emits to hit the enemy ship, and uses the time required for anti-fire to automatically and accurately

Measuring the distance and then shooting is much more accurate than using a simple rangefinder to measure the distance.

However, the Japanese battleship opposite was not even equipped with a rangefinder. Everything relied on the naked eye observation of the gunner, and there was no unified command. Each turret fought independently.

The Sichuan fleet is different. The data automatically measured by the radar is transmitted to each turret. Each turret fires at the same time based on the same data. The hit rate is many times higher than that observed with the naked eye.

In the firing control room of the 133 cruiser behind, Dongfang Zhenhua fired the first shot from the 134 ship and had already targeted the Japanese cruiser Sanmaru. As the bombardment order was issued, the six 12-gun turrets in the three bow turrets

The three-inch cannon roared at the same time, and six shells flew out of the gun barrel almost at the same time, roaring towards the Sanmaru.

Due to the inexperience of the gunners, the first round of shelling seemed to miss. The water column formed by the explosion of the shell surrounded the Sanmaru, submerging the Sanmaru in a mist.

At the same time, the two 12-inch guns in the Sanmaru's bow turret also fired one after another. However, the accuracy of the shelling aimed with the naked eye on the foggy sea was really poor, and the shells were several hundred meters away from the cruiser 133.

And the two shells were 4 seconds apart.

Soon, there was still a cry of exclamation from the Japanese Sanwan. Dongfang Zhenhua was a little confused, could it have been hit? Seeing that the Sanwan was still running normally, Dongfang Zhenhua in the command room shouted "It's a pity" and then cursed.

Said: "Little devil, you are screaming if you didn't hit me"

In fact, Dongfang Zhenhua knew that it was very rare for the first bombardment to hit this range at such a distance. At this time, Dongfang Zhenhua suddenly felt that his worries were unfounded. He obviously lacked confidence in his fleet before the war.

At this time, Dongfang Zhenhua was already in high spirits, and immediately gave a loud order: "The entire fleet of rocket launchers should fire, target the Sanwan, fire!"

As Dongfang Zhenhua's words came to light, the two 24-barreled rocket launchers equipped on each ship roared toward the San Maru with hundreds of rockets, and thick smoke immediately erupted from the San Maru.

"Hit! Hit!" There was a burst of cheers from all the ships of the Sichuan Army.
