After visiting the First Shipyard, Chen Ce took the French to the Third Shipyard. There are only two shipyards in this plant, but they are building large ships. Among them, the Xuebing is being built in the No. 1 shipyard.
The second ship "Jinshan" of the "Songshan-class" heavy destroyer independently developed and designed by the People's Liberation Army. This class of ship has a design tonnage of about 5,700 tons, a design speed of 34 knots, and is equipped with a 214 mm caliber two-unit
Two main guns, four six-unit torpedo launchers with a caliber of 475 mm, plus a number of anti-aircraft weapons, it has a very powerful penetration capability whether it is naval warfare, air defense or shore warfare. If
If the French were just touched when they saw the "Hengshan-class", their eyes immediately widened when they saw this big ship.
The "Jinshan" is almost completed. With all the ship's weapons installed, some of them have aroused strong curiosity among the French. Standing on the edge of the dock, Lulay pointed behind the main gun on the front deck of the ship.
A quadruple white weapon rack similar to a torpedo launcher asked Chen Ce: "Commander Chen, what kind of weapon is that?"
"It seems to be a torpedo launcher." A French major said softly,
Of course this is not a torpedo launcher. The matter is confidential. Chen Ce couldn't answer it, so he couldn't help but look at Li Tieshu.
Li Tieshu nodded without any trace, and Chen Ce then said: "That's a missile launcher."
It was the first time for the French to come into contact with the concept of "missile". De Gu asked: "Missile, what kind of weapon is this?"
Chen Ce thought for a moment and said, "You can think of it as a small flying torpedo."
"Flying torpedoes," all the French were stunned.
"We haven't put this kind of weapon into service yet. What you see is actually just an empty frame." Chen Ce added,
The so-called "missiles" are actually missiles, which are the sharpest among the many advanced weapons being secretly developed by the Xuebing R&D Institute. Since the relevant technology is not yet very mature, after testing short-range radio-guided air-to-air missiles
, the Xuebing Research and Development Institute suspended external testing of this type of weapon, so this type of weapon has disappeared within the jurisdiction of the Xuebing Army.
What Chen Ce said was actually true, but in the eyes of the French, it was a cover-up. The French actually didn't understand the specific definition of "missile", but just the term "flying torpedo" was enough to make them think
Lian Lian, the ordinary officers were fine. De Gu and Lu Lai looked at each other and saw a hint of caution in each other's eyes.
I originally thought that the Xuebingjun Navy was only half-baked, but now it seems that their understanding of this young navy needs to be strengthened.
This is not over yet. After discovering this novel "empty frame", the French's eyes became much more detailed, and they immediately made a new discovery, "That is..." A colonel pointed to the tip of an anti-aircraft weapon.
shouted,
Everyone else followed the direction of his finger and looked over, and then heard Chen Ce say in an understatement: "Oh, that's the 'Cloud' six-gun rapid-fire machine gun."
Today, "cloud-type" weapons have formed their own system in the weapons sequence of the Xuebing Army, and one of their common features is that they are extremely powerful. The French do not know this. Someone asked curiously: "Rapid-fire machine cannon, isn't it?"
Know how many shells can be fired per minute."
Li Tieshu replied: "About three thousand rounds."
"Three, three, three thousand rounds." The French were all stunned.
After this round of astonishment, and after seeing the helicopter platform at the stern of the ship, the French asked again,
"Oh, it's for helicopters to take off and land." Chen Ce continued to answer in an understatement, while the French were collectively confused. The French pride themselves on knowing much about everything related to the navy than country bumpkins like China. However, After arriving in Haikou, they discovered that they were the real country bumpkins. Otherwise, why wouldn't they recognize many weapons and equipment?
This was the beginning of the French people's shocking journey. About twenty minutes later, a group of people arrived at the military pier of Haikou Naval Base. At Pier 2, when they saw a dozen submarines half-floating quietly on the water, At this time, the eyes couldn't help but shrink collectively.
In view of the fact that the German submarine force used wolf pack tactics to rely on its weak naval power to fight against the world's strongest British navy. Today, few countries in the world despise submarines. Compared with traditional naval powers, the navy of the military academy Of course, they are immature. The more so, the more De Gu and others can understand the Xuebing Army's ambition to develop the navy.
Compared with the mainstream submarines currently owned by countries around the world, Xuebingjun's submarine is completely different. There are no weapons on the bridge, and its streamlined hull is so beautiful that one can't help but doubt its actual combat performance.
There are a total of eighteen submarines, three of which are the earliest models and have now been converted into training boats, while the others are all "Ming-class". Speaking of which, the Xuebing Army has taken many wrong steps in building ships. For example, several submarines, destroyers and frigates that were built in the early stages have all been converted into training ships because of various problems that occurred during the trials.
After boarding a training boat and seeing the internal structure clearly, the French were even more moved.
First-class sonar system, comfortable operating environment, convenient attack system, the French quickly came to this conclusion, and then Degu asked Chen Ce: "Your army attaches great importance to submarines."
Chen Ce's answer was: "There is no way. Compared with the Japanese navy, we are too weak. If we want to win, we can only rely on sneak attack tactics. Submarines are known as assassins in the sea, and they are suitable for attacking the strong with the weak."
De Gu believed that the Xuebing Army's submarines had no on-board armaments and their only attack weapons were torpedoes, which was perfect for sneak attacks.
The original plan was that Li Tieshu only planned to let the French stay in Haikou for one day. However, because De Gu made a request and hoped to deepen their understanding, they stayed in Haikou for a total of three days.
In three days, except for the French being unable to come into contact with the Song class, everything else in the Haikou naval base was open to the French. In this way, without Chen Ce and Li Tieshu having to waste words, the French's "soft resistance" policy would cease to exist. internally disintegrated,
Three days later, when preparing to leave Haikou for the coastal front line of southwestern Qiong, before boarding the bus, Degu held Chen Ce's watch and said: "We are willing to grow up with the young military and naval forces, and let's work together in the future. We are confident that we will help you grow into a world-class maritime force."
Chen Ce grinned, first expressed his gratitude and welcome, and then glanced at the French officers on the advisory board and said: "Gentlemen, in a few years, when you are old and gray, leaning on a cane, recalling your life in China to your children and grandchildren, what will you do for them? I am proud of today's decision, gentlemen, and I am here to await your return."
