Red Alert 1895

The captain of the Japanese battleship Xiangshan soon ordered the sailors to evacuate quickly, and then their sailors began to evacuate by boat. These Japanese are very fortunate that the two torpedoes did not directly hit the ammunition depot or the power room of the steam turbine, otherwise it would be troublesome if an internal explosion was triggered. If an internal explosion is caused, the consequence is that the captain has no time to give the order to abandon the ship. As a result, the soldiers are all killed by the explosion, and even the most effective escape opportunity is lost, causing a large number of casualties. If it didn't hit the ammunition depot, and there was simply a hole, the captain decisively ordered to abandon the ship, and the casualties of the sailors could be greatly reduced. Even if the damage control is strong, it can drain the water while abandoning the ship, and the surviving soldiers can even reach more than 90%. Of course, this excludes those who were killed by shells.

For the Japanese navy, they don't have the Bushido spirit of the army. As a navy, they don't have much so-called idea of ​​​​sacrificing their lives. The death of a navy is more expensive than the death of an army, and the cost of cultivating a navy is much higher than that of an army. Therefore, when the warships of various countries are about to sink, they often allow the navy sailors to abandon the ship instead of letting them sink to the bottom of the sea with the warships.

"Captain, don't you want to go?" the Japanese soldier Shui 1▼1▼1▼1▼, m.$▽om asked.

The captain smiled bitterly: "Others can go, but I must live and die with the warship."

Some countries have a strange rule, that is, when a warship is attacked and sunk by the enemy, other sailors can escape by boat, but the captain must sink with the warship. So the Japanese captain obviously didn't intend to leave, and had to sink with the warship.

When the Xiangshan sank, Yuheng Ito watched this scene, and immediately became angry.

"Damn. Where did these torpedoes come from? They actually sank our battleship Xiangshan?" Ito Youheng asked.

The Xiangshan battleship is Japan's latest battleship. It was completely created by the Japanese imitating the British Sovereign-class battleship, and each one is very valuable. But there is no real battle yet, and as a result, one ship was lost, which meant a loss of more than one million pounds. This loss made the Japanese feel Alexander. And lost so worthlessly. The battle has not officially started yet, and so much has been lost. This really makes Ito Yuheng really have a toothache. The Xiangshan battleship sank without firing a single shell, which is too worthless.

"General, just now I saw that those torpedoes seemed to be launched from below the surface of the sea? That is, three hundred meters away, and the enemy's torpedoes were launched from about three hundred meters away." A Japanese observer said.

Ito Yuheng looked 300 meters away with a telescope, but he didn't find any enemies. He was still a little confused at first, but he suddenly thought of something.

"Immediately order, so the naval guns are firing three hundred meters away!" Ito Yuheng said.

"Yes!"

The Japanese army immediately began to adjust the positions of the battleship guns. Then it started shooting three hundred meters away. This is only a distance of 300 meters, which is very close for naval guns, because their battleship guns often shoot and engage at a distance of several thousand meters, and 300 meters is simply childish. So those Japanese warships immediately began to adjust, and soon began to fire. Even these shells are aimed directly, and there is no need to do anything to calculate the trajectory and wind direction.

"Boom..."

There was a burst of firing sound from naval guns, and bursts of water splashed on the surface of the sea. And the submarines under the sea are not feeling well, because the air waves created by these shells are obviously very huge. Let their "weight" and lighter submarines be unbearable.

"what-"

The submarine soldiers in those submarines were messed up by the waves and torrents, and the huge shaking of the submarine made them look like Lantern Festival. Shaking around, hitting walls everywhere in the submarine. Although this battleship shell has a small charge, it is not something ordinary submarines with a very light tonnage can bear. Even a mere wave made these submarines sway.

"Everyone calm down, don't get confused, go back to your respective posts. Go up immediately. Then quickly retreat!" Hao Detachment Captain shouted immediately.

As an undersea assassin, what they have to do is to retreat as soon as possible after one blow, no matter whether they succeed or fail. The enemy is not a fool, and they very quickly drew a conclusion from where these torpedoes were launched. That is to say, the enemy has submarines under the surface of the sea to attack them. At this time, the battleship's artillery shells hit directly. If these submarines dare not enter and run, do they still wait for the shells to blow up? Having to fight head-on with submarines is not an opponent of battleships at all. A single shell from a battleship is enough to blow up ten submarines.

It's like an assassin can only rely on the negligence of the enemy's fierce general to kill with one blow. If he makes a shot, no matter whether it succeeds or fails, he must go. Because you are definitely not an opponent of a fierce general in a frontal battle, especially if the opponent is not just a fierce general, the most important thing is to run away quickly, instead of staying here and fighting the enemy desperately.

The sailors in the submarine began to try their best to return to their respective posts, and then drained the water in the submarine very quickly, and then injected air, and the submarine floated up like a balloon. However, after the submarine surfaced, it was bound to be discovered by the enemy. The Japanese army immediately discovered a group of unknown things three hundred meters away.

"Your Excellency, Commander, about 300 meters away, there is something that looks like a long drop. I don't know what it is." The Japanese lookout shouted.

"Hit me, hit me hard, and beat these despicable and shameless people to death. It's really unreasonable for them not to fight us head-on. These samurai-spirited people are sinking me!" shouted Yutou Ito.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

Various naval guns of the Japanese army fired towards the submarine one after another, and then the submarine continued to float upwards, adjusting its direction while floating, hoping to retreat and run away as soon as possible.

"Float quickly, the speed is much faster after surfacing, and then we run away as soon as possible!" Captain Hao shouted.

The reason why Captain Hao chose to float up is actually a reason, because the diesel engines of this era are not powerful enough, coupled with the reason for the design of the submarine, this has created a special feature of the submarine. Submarines travel several times faster on the surface than in water. This is a characteristic of submarines before World War II. Submarines before World War II were faster on the surface and slower in the water. But after World War II, it was faster in the water and slower in the water.

However, the current capability of diesel engines is not very good, so they cannot reach the bottom of the water at a faster speed. So if you want to run, it is actually better to run on the water. As for easy exposure on the water, this is indeed a problem. However, after the previous drills of the submarine detachment, they deeply realized that in the face of the battleship's naval guns, the defense capabilities of any submarine are vulnerable. If you hide in the water, the forward speed is very slow, and it is easy for the enemy to fire more naval guns. If it is in the water, the speed of travel is five or six times slower, which means that it has to withstand five or six times more firepower from the enemy's naval guns.

And the water may not be safe. It is certainly not conducive to the enemy's aiming in the water, but it is not necessary to have such an accurate shooting level when dealing with submarines. As long as the shot hits the vicinity, the strong water pressure caused by the explosion of the shell is enough to tear the submarine's thin armor, so that a large amount of seawater will inevitably pour in, and the wind direction will be stronger at that time.

If it is on the water surface, the water pressure of the shell explosion is shared and dispersed a lot, so the pressure received by the submarine is not so great. In addition, the speed on the water is several times faster, so they can withstand a lot of enemy shells within a relatively short distance. In addition, the hit rate of shells in this era is very bad~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ 10% is God's blessing, so this risk is worth taking. After many drills, the success rate and loss probability of escaping on the water surface are much higher than those of escaping underwater.

Of course, if anyone is directly or indirectly hit by the enemy's naval guns, he can only blame himself for his own life. There is nothing undead on the battlefield, so if you get hit, you can only admit that you are unlucky, and I can't help you with others.

However, Taiwan's huge fleet in the distance also noticed that the submarine had encountered difficulties, and the commander, Chief of Naval Staff Qiu Baoren, also began to give orders.

"Order, the strategic fleet presses me up, and then the submarine retreats, and looks for an opportunity to annihilate one of the enemy's battleships. The so-called wounding the enemy's ten fingers is worse than cutting off one finger. We can concentrate our firepower and sink one of their battleships. While they are not familiar with our sword-class battleship, play the role of our sword-class battleship as soon as possible, and then hit them hard." Qiu Baoren said.

"Yes!" The strategic fleet as a whole rushed up, responsible for the retreat of the submarine, and the Japanese saw this strategic fleet for the first time, and they were not familiar with the sword-class battleship, so they looked at the sword-class battleship It still feels a little strange. Obviously, the ships of this strategic fleet feel different from other battleships. (To be continued.)
