Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

What Soichiro Minami didn't know was that the "Durban" class light cruisers in Southern Africa had ramming angles, and the ramming angles were made of high-strength alloy steel.

There is no way, resource-rich Southern Africa is so arrogant. When the Japanese Army was still using iron sheets to build tanks, Southern African tanks had already used high-strength alloy steel. In this way, the Southern African Ministry of National Defense still felt that it was providing tankers with

The protection was not enough, so a layer of reactive armor was added to the outside of the tank.

Reactive armor is actually an inert explosive. When an armor-piercing projectile hits a tank equipped with reactive armor, the inert explosive will explode outward, thereby effectively reducing the damage caused by the armor-piercing projectile to the tank and achieving the purpose of protecting the tank.

Reactive armor is not something you can just install if you want. If the skin of the tank is too thin, you cannot install reactive armor, because when the reactive armor explodes, it will also cause certain damage to the tank body. Therefore, even if the Japanese Army has learned this technology, it will still use it.

No, Japan's Type 89 medium tank has a standard filling with big filling and thin skin.

Going back to the "Durban" class light cruiser, the cost of the cruiser is definitely much higher than that of the tank. Even the tanks use high-strength alloy steel, and the cruiser must also use it, so if there is a collision, the "Durban" must be

You won't suffer any loss.

On the light cruiser "Fen Yong", Captain Chang Hong looked at the "Qiu Yue" getting closer and closer, with cold eyes.

Chang Hong's hometown is outside the customs, Japan has begun military expansion, and Chang Hong's hometown has fallen. If it were not his duty, Chang Hong would have already launched an attack on the "Qiuyue" when he discovered the "Qiuyue".

Although the tensions between southern Africa and Japan are high, war has not yet been declared. After Japan began its military expansion, the captains of the Changi Naval Base had already lost their patience. If Tang Li had not suppressed the war, the Changi Squadron would have already been suppressed.

A conflict broke out with the Japanese Combined Fleet, and now the "Qiuyue" gave Chang Hong an opportunity to make an excuse, and Chang Hong would definitely not let it go.

Even if Chang Hong would pay a heavy price for it afterwards, Chang Hong would not hesitate.

"One thousand meters away, prepare for collision -" First Officer Ford shouted hoarsely. For a cruiser with a length of more than 100 meters, one thousand meters is just a few breaths.

"Crash into it!" Chang Hong's attitude was decisive, it was best to hit "Qiuyue" directly and sink it.

It can be seen that the "Qiuyue" is turning desperately, trying to avoid the "Fanyong".

The "Fen Yong", which had reached its ultimate speed, did not give the "Qiu Yue" a chance to escape.

Although the "Qiuyue" tried its best to avoid a head-on collision, the "Fenyong" still hit the side of the "Qiuyue" heavily.

The 3,100-ton "Fen Yong" hit the 1,500-ton "Qiu Yue" as easily as an adult hitting a child.

boom--

At the moment of the collision, the hull of the "Qiuyue" tilted severely, and the side of the other side was almost parallel to the water surface. The "Qiuyue" was thrown into the air by the sea water, and then hit the water heavily. The side of the "Qiuyue"

A large hole was made in the side of the ship by the "Fen Yong". When it hit the water, the hull of the "Qiu Yue" made a huge sound of metal breaking.

The "Qiuyue" must have been scrapped. Even if it could be driven back reluctantly, it would no longer be able to undertake combat missions due to damage to its hull structure.

Maybe I won't be able to go back. Looking at this situation, I will sink almost at any time.

Compared with the miserable "Qiuyue", the "Fen Yong" was almost unscathed, and the side sides will probably need to be repainted after returning to port.

At the moment of the collision, several sailors on the "Autumn Moon" fell directly into the sea, and the number of other casualties is unknown.

The "Fen Yong" had no intention of stopping to rescue the ship. After colliding with the "Qiu Yue", it just walked away with an extremely arrogant attitude.

There was no ghost submarine left, and it had long since disappeared without a trace.

When news of the collision between the two ships spread, public opinion was in an uproar.

Southern Africa is a country composed mainly of Chinese people. Roque has never concealed his hostility towards Japan from the beginning. Southern Africa has never done business with the Japanese for so many years, and everyone sees it.

From the perspective of European and American countries, it is irrational for southern Africa to do this. Britain and Germany had their brains broken during the World War. Just after the World War ended, Britain started to provide assistance to Germany out of its own interests.

The same goes for the United States. Southern Africa defeated the U.S.-Brazilian coalition forces in Brazil, and the U.S. government did not declare war on Southern Africa. Business should be done, and the money should be earned.

Southern Africa had an impressive record at the Friendship Games, and the Americans also dominated the Los Angeles Olympics. Among the total 116 gold medals, the American delegation won 65. This should have been a shame for the United States, because it participated in

There are only 25 countries in this Olympic Games, and the total number of athletes is only 830, of which 690 are American athletes. However, the Americans hype their 65 gold medals as an honor.

To be honest, I have never seen such a shameless country.

After Japan began its military expansion, southern Africa's hostility toward Japan became more obvious. Japanese merchant ships were once unable to even pass through the Strait of Malacca and had to fly the flags of other countries to pass.

In the League of Nations, Southern Africa insisted on imposing sanctions on Japan. Southern Africa did not even send an invitation to Japan for the Friendship Games. Because the United States insisted on trade with Japan, Southern Africa even imposed sanctions on Japan. Before Japan began its military expansion, Southern Africa and

There is still sporadic trade volume between Japan.

After Japan began its military expansion, the trade volume between southern Africa and Japan has been zero for many years.

Not only southern Africa, but also the Southern African Union countries, including Australia, have zero trade volume with Japan.

After the shipping incident occurred, the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs immediately lodged the most serious protest with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Southern Africa, demanding that Southern Africa not only punish those responsible but also compensate the losses of the Japanese combined fleet.

After the "Qiuyue" rushed to the Philippines for emergency repairs, it ultimately failed to escape the fate of sinking.

The "Fenyong" caused too much damage to the "Qiuyue". The hull structure of the "Qiuyue" was destroyed. If it had to be repaired, the cost would be even higher than building a new ship directly.

The Japanese government finally gave up repairs on the Akizuki, and the Akizuki was forced to sink in the Philippine waters. The sailors on the Akizuki returned to Japan on American merchant ships.

The incident did not end there. After the sinking of the Akizuki, what angered the Japanese most was not the atrocities in southern Africa, but the fact that the captain of the Akizuki, Soichiro Minami, did not follow naval tradition and scuttled with the Akizuki.

Including other officers and soldiers, they all attracted ridicule from Japanese public opinion.

The Japanese government did not hold the officers and soldiers of the "Akiyuki" accountable. On the contrary, the first officer, Takashi Oda, could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide by caesarean section after returning to Japan.

The federal government of Southern Africa responded extremely indifferently to the ship collision. The Changi Squadron did not even stop the work of Captain Chang Hong of the "Endeavor". After the "Endeavour" returned to Changi Naval Base, he was cheered like a hero. Chang Hong

As a result, he became the most popular person in the Navy Club. It is said that from then on, Chang Hong never paid for a drink at the Navy Club.

"You should have directly rammed and sunk the Japanese ship and drowned all the sailors to see if the Japanese government could endure this." In the Navy Club, Captain Bran, who is also a "Durban" class cruiser

It's a pity that if it were Brandt, Brandt might have done even more.

Brandt is French. Although there is no direct hatred between France and Japan, Brandt is still affected by the atmosphere at Changi Naval Base.

It is said that at Changi Naval Base, when recruits are doing target practice, the targets are all Japanese soldiers.

"I think I have gone too far. I didn't expect the Japanese government to tolerate it-" Chang Hong also regretted that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles deserved their reputation.

"Otherwise, what else can you do? Take the initiative to declare war on us? Give the Japanese another courage!" Yuri from the Marine Corps also hates the Japanese extremely, and there is also an inextricable hatred between Russia and Japan.

Don't forget the damage caused to Russia by the Russo-Japanese War, so if there is a chance, the Russians don't mind giving the Japanese a lesson.

Japan also knows that the Russians will take revenge, otherwise they would not regard Russia as Japan's biggest enemy on land.

"I have a question, why did the 'Autumn Moon' break into East India?" Brandt still can't figure out why the Japanese did this.

"No matter what the reason is, we will continue to collide if you dare to come again!" Yuri was very sorry. Why didn't the Japanese log in to Kalimantan? Then the Marine Corps could show off their skills.

"The Japanese are probably testing the bottom line between us and the East Indies -" Chang Hong analyzed calmly that a mere Japanese ronin was not worthy of such a big move by the Japanese government.

"We must be careful during this period, the Japanese will definitely retaliate." Brandt reminded, it is true that the Japanese can tolerate it, and it is also true that the Japanese will retaliate.

"Oh, I'm worried that the Japanese won't retaliate." Chang Hong hopes that the Japanese will retaliate, as that will give the Southern African federal government enough excuses.

In fact, southern Africa was not ready for war with the Japanese.

On the fourth day after the collision, Tang Li held a captain's meeting to cool down the ambitious captains so as not to push the situation out of control.

Even if we want to fight, we have to wait until all the "Island" class aircraft carriers are built.

After all, Japan and the United States are different. Southern Africa and the United States are fighting in Brazil. The purpose is to teach the Americans a lesson and shake the hegemony of the United States in the Americas.

Regarding Japan, the attitude of the Southern African federal government is very clear.

Either we don’t fight, or if we fight, we must completely beat Japan to death and deny Japan any chance to rise again.

The Japanese government must also be able to sense the hostility of Southern Africa. In order to express its protest against Southern Africa, Japan decided to recall its ambassador to Southern Africa on November 20 and recommended that the Southern African ambassador to Japan leave Japan as soon as possible.

Don't get me wrong, this is not a severance of diplomatic relations. The United States and Southern Africa have even recalled each other's ambassadors. This is not a severance of diplomatic relations.
