Four hundred and twentieth chapters counterattack (nine)
Lin Sanhu pointed at the map and said, "We captured Ganyu and Guanyun, and the Japanese navy couldn't sit still. Last night, the Japanese navy set out from Lianyungang and bombarded our Ganyu County. Fortunately, we were well prepared.
We organized the people to evacuate safely, but the town of Ganyu County was almost destroyed... This little devil's battleship is really powerful." As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Cheng expectantly.
Jiang Cheng shook his finger and smiled and said, "No matter how powerful the Japanese warships are, I can still find a way. Commander Lin, do we have a port in Ganyu? I brought the big guys this time."
Lin Sanhu's eyes lit up and he asked in disbelief, "Do we have our own battleship?"
Jiang Cheng looked at them and saw that they were all senior officials of the 115th Division. He nodded and said, "Yes, but it's not a big ship. The total is only more than a thousand tons. But if these ships are used, all the Japanese warships will reach the sea."
You can’t feed the fish.”
Wang Bingzhang and others clenched their fists excitedly when they heard this. Lin Sanhu said excitedly, "Where is the ship? We have to guard against interception by the Japanese Navy. Where did it come from?"
Jiang Cheng sighed and said, "The ship has arrived. This ship is small and came overland. Although our crew has arrived, we still need to get familiar with the ship, so the attack on Lianyungang will have to wait."
Lin Sanhu only wanted the ship and said quickly, "Wait, wait, let's go see the ship quickly. By the way, will this battleship belong to our 115th Division in the future? Now we have to set up a battleship brigade.
Ouch, the 120th and 129th divisions must be jealous to death."
Although the Shanxi Army has basically joined the Eighth Route Army, in the minds of these old Red Party commanders and fighters, the Jinsui Army and Fu Zuoyi can only be regarded as halfway monks. To compare with each other, three old Eighth Route Army divisions have to compare with each other. Now
Because He Long attacked Suiyuan and the Mongolian grasslands, he equipped a large number of tanks and armored troops. Liu and Deng's army perfectly combined mountain guerrilla warfare with plain guerrilla warfare in the Taihang Mountains. If nothing else is said, the number of people alone is three divisions.
The top spot, and Lin Sanhu's 115th Division came to Shandong for development after the Shanxi Campaign. It is far away from Yan'an, and it is difficult to supply many weapons and ammunition, which makes Lin Sanhu always feel like he is at a disadvantage. Now I know
There was actually a battleship assigned to him, not to mention the excitement.
Jiang Cheng said quickly, "I can't make the decision, but we can't occupy Lianyungang for a long time. After all, our navy is too weak and we don't have enough planes. We just need to cooperate in the battle."
Lin Sanhu also reacted and said hehe, "That is also the first joint sea and land operation of our Eighth Route Army. We must make a good total."
When the sun set, Lin Sanhu and Jiang Cheng were waiting on the road. After a while, they heard a rumbling sound, and several extremely huge trucks appeared in front of Lin Sanhu and others. Lin Sanhu and others looked at
When I saw the truck, I couldn't help but take a breath. The truck was more than 20 meters long and five or six meters wide. The things on the truck were much larger than the truck. They were just covered with black cloth, so you couldn't see them.
to a specific look.
There are five such trucks in total, two are boats, and the other two are full of people, all of Jiang Cheng's guards. Only one truck is empty. This is specially prepared for Jiang Cheng and others.
of.
Jiang Cheng let out a long breath in his heart. Due to the water pressure, there was no way to throw the warship directly into the sea. According to Gallagher, the biggest possibility of doing so would be damage to the hull. Of course, this is only a possibility, but
Jiang Cheng did not dare to take this risk, so he had to customize an extra-long truck to transport the ship. Fortunately, the largest truck in China in later generations had a load capacity of more than 500 tons, so there was no problem in transporting a 200-ton warship.
Wang Bingzhang asked a little doubtfully, "Is this a warship?"
Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "That's right, okay, let's go to Ganyu together. I brought five such big trucks this time. We can take one and go see it together."
Lin Sanhu hummed, turned around and said to Luo Ronghuan, "Then I'll go take a look, and I'll leave this to you."
Luo Ronghuan knew that Lin Sanhu was interested in this mysterious battleship, and felt that as a military commander, he must understand the performance of all the weapons in his hands, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you can just go."
After hearing this, Lin Sanhu and Wang Bingzhang quickly got into the car and drove to Ganyu with Jiang Cheng.
——Ganyu
At this time, Ganyu County was already an empty city. Only the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were still guarding here to prevent the Japanese from landing. Jiang Cheng got out of the car and looked at Ganyu City, looking at the still smoking rubble and collapsed houses, feeling uncomfortable in his heart.
.
"Xu Tishan, the Second Brigade of the 115th Division, is here to report. Hello, chief!" Several officers had been waiting on the roadside for a long time. When they saw the car stopped, they immediately saluted Lin Sanhu and others.
Lin Sanhu returned the salute and asked, "Are you all ready?"
Xu Tishan nodded and said, "The port has been cleared. In addition, we found a small dock in the Xingzhuang River. If the Japanese army comes, we can hide in the dock. Although there is no defense, it is better than being on the beach."
many."
Just as he was talking, Li Qian came over with two people and said, "My boss, these two are Jiang Guoping and Wang Ling who have returned from studying in Germany and the United States."
Jiang Cheng, Lin Sanhu and others looked at the two of them, and they saluted Lin Sanhu and Jiang Cheng respectively and said, "Hello, Chief!"
Jiang Guoping is tall, about 1.78 meters tall, in his twenties, his eyes move from time to time, and looks very smart, while Wang Ling has dark skin, thick lips, and looks extremely honest.
Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "How many people have you brought back? What have you learned?"
The two exchanged humility, and Jiang Guoping first said, "Report to the leader! Our team is from Germany, with a total of 73 people who have returned. We have learned how to operate torpedo boats and frigates, and can deal with simple damage control, but we have no actual combat experience. The report is completed!"
"
Wang Ling also shouted loudly, "Report to the leader, our team is from the United States. There are 58 people who have returned to the country. The study content is also about torpedo boats and frigates, but four of them have experience in aircraft postures, and they also have no actual experience in naval combat. Report completed!"
Jiang Cheng nodded and expressed his understanding. The four of them had tried their best to let these soldiers learn ship driving and shooting skills in Germany and the United States, but they could only get some small boats to learn. Even Germany itself could not get big ships like cruisers.
There aren't many, and the United States simply doesn't give itself such ships, even disarmed ones.
Lin Sanhu asked Jiang Cheng, "Are these people enough?"
Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "It's a little short. The full complement of our ship is 39 people. Five ships will be 200 people smaller. We only have 130 people, but there is nothing we can do. My opinion is
Mobilize some people from our 115th Division who are experienced in driving ships to board the ship and conduct emergency training. After all, many places do not require professionals."
Lin Sanhu nodded in agreement, turned to the staff officer beside him and said, "Immediately do what the 203 leader wants."
Jiang Cheng continued to say to Jiang Guoping and Wang Ling, "We have only arrived at two ships now. I want you to take turns to get familiar with how to use this ship. Remember, this ship comes from foreign forces that support us.
We have signed a confidentiality agreement with them when using their ships to fight the war. No matter what happens, these ships cannot be captured by the Japanese army, and the data and information in them cannot be leaked. Do you understand?"
Jiang Guoping and Wang Ling immediately stood at attention and said, "There are people in the boat! The boat crashed and everyone died!"
Jiang Cheng said quickly, "No, no, no, no, the ship can be destroyed, but the people can't die. We can still buy this ship again, but if you die, the loss will be really big. Okay, let's launch the ship into the water!"
——
"Let's go into the water!!" Under the shouts of the operators, the torpedo boat that took off its camouflage slowly entered the river. Under the nervous gaze of Jiang Cheng and others, the body of the more than 40-meter warship slid down from the truck bit by bit.
Every time it slipped a little, Jiang Cheng and the others felt their hearts tremble.
Finally, after spending almost an hour, both warships entered the Xingzhuang River. Jiang Guoping and Wang Ling took people aboard respectively. Jiang Cheng also boarded with Lin Sanhu under the protection of Li Qian.
torpedo boat.
Jiang Cheng said to Lin Sanhu, "Commander Lin, although we are a temporary ship and may need to be taken away again soon, we are going to participate in the battle after all, so we should give it a number. What do you think it should be called?"
Lin Sanhu touched his chin and said, "The names of these warships are very particular, and they are named according to their ranks. Most of our Chinese torpedo boats have the prefix "hu", but since they are our Red Party's own ships, we will rename them.
Let's go through it. I think the five ships that will hit Lianyungang this time will be called Ganyu, Guanyun, Donghai, Muyang and Guannan. These places have been liberated from the iron hoof of the Japanese invaders.
Let the common people's anger against the Japanese be pinned on our torpedo boats to defeat the Japanese warships."
Jiang Cheng was moved when he heard this. These are all the names of county towns. It seems that Lin Sanhu and others have great ambitions for the Chinese navy. This torpedo boat is the county town, so those frigates, destroyers, cruisers, and even battleships and
What would be the font size of the aircraft carrier? Jiang Cheng seemed to see the scene of warships with Chinese flags floating everywhere on the blue ocean. Jiang Cheng shook his head vigorously to expel the delusion from his mind and said to Lin Sanhu, "Okay, I
Just look at this name, then I will continue to dispatch the remaining warships, and I will leave it to you to train and prepare for the discovery of the Japanese army."
Lin Sanhu hummed and said, "Don't worry, things here will be fine."
After Jiang Cheng left, Lin Sanhu continued to visit the Ganyu. This more than 40-meter-long battleship made him feel endless aftertaste. It even dazzled Wang Bingzhang. Wang Bingzhang sighed to Lin Sanhu, "It is said that such a battleship can be obtained."
That’s it, our Comrade 203 is really powerful.”
Lin Sanhu squinted his eyes and said, "Don't mention this matter again, and don't say the three words 203 to the outside world. You should have learned the confidentiality manual, right?"
Wang Bingzhang nodded to express his understanding.
What is this? Jiang Guoping came over and said, "Report to the leaders, we are going to take a trip to sea at night. For the sake of safety, the leaders should disembark first."
Lin Sanhu shook his head and said, "What are you afraid of? I am not afraid of thousands of troops, but why are you afraid of your small boat? Let's go out and take a look."
Seeing that his persuasion was ineffective, Jiang Guoping could only take Lin Sanhu and sail overseas.
There is actually a small island on the sea outside Ganyu County, called Qinshan Island. The Japanese army has no garrison on it. There is only a lighthouse and a small group of security forces. After learning that Ganyu was lost, these people withdrew to Lianyungang.
At that time, the 115th Division had assigned some fishermen to guard the place.
"The speed of our ship is so fast. It is much faster than the ships we have used before." Jiang Guoping praised Lin Sanhu on the deck.
"I want to see the power of this torpedo boat, is that okay?" Lin Sanhu shouted loudly.
"Sorry, this place is too close to Lianyungang. We are worried that the explosion will attract the attention of the Japanese, so we cannot conduct live-fire exercises and can only simulate them through data." Jiang Guoping said regretfully.
Lin Sanhu looked to the south and said, "It's okay, it's almost over. In a few days, we will use this boat to teach the little devil a lesson."
With that said, Wang Bingzhang pointed to the spherical radar on the torpedo boat and asked, "What is that?"
Jiang Guoping looked back, shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it before. There is no such thing on German ships, but the head of 203 has sent someone to take over the instrument. It is said to be something called a radar, which can detect distant warships."
It’s like clairvoyance.”
Jiang Guoping was not exposed to the study of radar in Germany, but Lin Sanhu knew about radar. He immediately said clearly, "This is the radar installed on the ship. I know this. We have already used it. It is said that abroad
Many places don’t even have radars. Haha, good, we Chinese shouldn’t be worse than them.”
When Jiang Guoping heard that Lin Sanhu actually knew what this radar was, and seemed to know it very well, and had used it in actual combat, the trace of arrogance he had brought about from returning from overseas suddenly disappeared, and he said more carefully, "As provided to us,
The data shows that our torpedoes have a range of 40 nautical miles, and I think we should be able to ambush Japanese warships from a distance."
Lin Sanhu nodded and praised, "Okay, that's great. I'm waiting for your good news."
While we were chatting, the sky began to turn white unknowingly, and the torpedo boat fleet began to return. In order to prevent the Japanese army from discovering it, these ships needed to be hidden in the dock. These naval soldiers had to rely on the contact they had just made, and kept thinking about it in their minds.
Drill so as to form combat effectiveness in the shortest possible time.
Jiang Cheng also returned to modern times and continued to transport torpedo boats, mines and other supplies to make final preparations for the subsequent battle.
Jiang Guoping, Wang Ling and others worked day and night to learn how to use torpedo boats, but at this time Changsha was already in danger.
