Strictly speaking, the Navy Department is not an organization officially recognized by the Executive Committee. On the official organizational list, it is the Fishery Production Group and the Bobu Port District. They are under the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Civil Affairs respectively. According to the official
According to the division of labor, one is engaged in fishery production and maritime transportation, while the other is responsible for managing various affairs in the Bobu camp, including regular maintenance of ships moored in the harbor.
However, after private lobbying activities by some former navy personnel and some naval enthusiasts, the two departments have recently tended to merge. Although the Executive Committee currently has a non-commentary attitude towards this, as long as it is within the Executive Committee
Everyone in the position knew that the merger was inevitable.
Unlike various departments that have been enclosing land to build houses, people in the Navy look down on red brick buildings with brick and wood structures. What they prefer is a baroque naval building. Before such a house could not be built, Fengchenglun became this
Unofficially the office of the Admiralty.
The Fengcheng Ship completed its historical mission from the day it anchored on D-Day. Before the traversers re-established the oil industry, it could only be anchored in the harbor. The ship was carefully cared for - this ship had
Modern navigation equipment: radar, compass, navigation clock... play a vital role in the future maritime power of the traveler. In the most dangerous situations, they can also use it to escape.
Various furniture, equipment, materials and tools available on the ship were gradually dismantled for use on land. Unused cabins were sealed and locked. A large ship is a complex world and cannot be left without enough manpower to take care of it.
There are many blind spots that cannot be seen.
For the Admiralty, the comfort and convenience on board this ship are unmatched on land. Although the generator has been limited to meeting the most basic energy needs, it is still more than enough to supply office and daily electricity. Marine high-power radios can
It is convenient to contact all ships going out to sea. There are comfortable bedrooms, separate bathrooms, and well-equipped kitchens on the ship. It is different from the vast sea of people who eat salted fish, smoked fish, and dried fish all day long. There is a cold storage on the ship in the kitchen on the ship.
You can eat fresh fish, which is more than enough to make sashimi. You can also continuously make ice cubes. Various fruit shaved ices are not worth mentioning. You can also make ice cream with the milk powder you brought. It is said that the culture of the Navy is fond of the navy.
I have visited Fengcheng Lun many times for inspections, and I am full of praise for the ice cream and sashimi.
The main task currently undertaken by the informal navy is fishing. There used to be some fishermen living in Bopu. After the traversers took over here, they fled one after another. However, this is a traditional fishing ground in Lingao after all, and the reputation of the fishing ground has been lost.
The fishermen were almost bankrupt. In the end, the fishermen had to come forward to negotiate with the traversers, and were willing to pay a part of the fishery in exchange for the convenience of fishing here. The traversers agreed to this request: they could reduce the use of fishing boats.
, reducing the consumption of diesel and motorcycle hours. The two parties reached a fishing agreement. The catches of fishing boats in the surrounding area of Bopu will be divided according to 2:8. The catches owned by the fishermen, the traversers have the right to purchase according to the fishing pens.
The price will be given priority to purchase, and the traversers have the right to use a variety of means to pay: materials, food, commodities, and money. At the same time, the traversers' fishing boats can still fish on their own.
Soon, this fishing hegemony extended to all fishing boats fishing in this area. Any fishing boat willing to follow this rule must go to Bopu to receive a red pennant as a mark. In order to ensure the implementation of this policy, the Navy
A fishing boat is dispatched every day to patrol the fishing area, while fishing, and at the same time supervising the fishing. The first is to ensure that no fishing boat conceals production and picks up shipments at sea, and the second is to expel ships without flags.
"We have become fishing tyrants now." Chen Haiyang stood on the platform of the "Yu 1" ship, scanning the fishing boats operating in the surrounding waters, and remembered the image of the fishing tyrants in the comic books he read when he was a child. At that time, his young mind was stimulated
He developed an extreme disgust and hatred for this unfair system, and a vague admiration for the People's Liberation Army. This was probably the most original motivation for him to become a naval officer in the future.
At this time, he is maintaining this unfair system, and he is also one of the originators of this system. The world is so strange sometimes.
"What's wrong with the fishing tyrant? The catch output keeps rising, and Wu Nanhai has shut up! If this continues, it's only a matter of time before our navy is recognized." Li Di stood beside him happily, without any sense of guilt - this
After a fat man who was an electronic engineer worked his way into the Navy Department, he called himself a naval engineer and spent every day banging away in a shed without showing it to anyone. In fact, everyone knew that there was a small machine inside.
The steam engine - a steam engine kit purchased from abroad, but this machine has not been operating normally since it landed.
Chen Haiyang did not continue this topic. Since D-Day, no matter what political leanings the time-travelers have, utilitarianism has basically prevailed. What is good for the time-travelers is good - originally, right and wrong, good and evil are largely determined by the buttocks.
Where it was decided.
In the distance, a large fishing boat is unfurling its sails and heading west. This is "Deng Yingzhou" and is performing its third shipping mission. Since the first time it went to Guangzhou, this ship has almost never stopped.
, transported back a large amount of urgently needed materials for the industrial sector from Guangzhou. Yu 1 was responsible for protecting them in the waters near Bopu, but it was up to them to go there. Chen Haiyang sighed: No matter how modern the navy is without a material foundation, it will still be
Limited effect.
"Attention! Three large fishing boats were found 3 nautical miles ahead, without flags!" Le Lin, the lookout post, suddenly shouted. He is a Hong Kong native, an avid military enthusiast, especially the navy. After joining the navy, he wore a civilian uniform every day.
Edition US Navy uniform.
"Turn the rudder, heading 120. Go forward two, get closer." Chen Haiyang issued the order, and Yu No. 1, which was originally moving at slow speed, deflected the bow and drove towards the fishing boat.
Such inspections happened almost every day in the past. As fishing boats continued to have their catches confiscated, there were fewer and fewer fishing boats fishing without flags, almost extinct. This time, three boats appeared at once. Chen Haiyang was a little confused.
:
"Sound the battle alarm and prepare to join the gang for inspection!"
As the alarm bell on the ship rang, more than 30 people on the fishing boat quickly took their places, put on helmets and fire-proof combat uniforms - in this era, arson was a common attack method in naval battles along the coast of China. Weapons were prepared. The fishermen
No. 1 does not have heavy weapons such as artillery. The most basic firepower is to rely on sailors to fire volleys with SKS rifles. However, there has been a slight improvement recently. Although the Ministry of Industry lacks metal materials, wood, bamboo and rattan, and animal skins, there are still many things.
With the addition of Lin Shenhe, who claims to have played with all weapons except atomic bombs, several ballistas were quickly copied based on the information.
The so-called ballista is the most successful large-scale mechanical crossbow in the ancient Roman era, and it is also the most famous mechanical crossbow in the world. Strictly speaking, it cannot be regarded as a crossbow. Its firing mechanism is different from that of a crossbow. The firing potential energy is no longer accumulated in the bow body, but in the bow body. The twisted clockwork accumulated on both sides. The ballista has a nickname: shield piercer. The giant arrows it fires can easily penetrate any known shield and armor. A qualified ballista has a killing range of up to 500 meters. It can penetrate a homogeneous wooden board with a thickness of about two inches within two hundred meters. And it can fire a variety of weapons, including arrows, javelins, stone bullets, incendiary bombs, etc. In the heyday of the ancient Roman army, each legion was equipped with a ballista As many as 50 or more.
The mechanical crossbows used by the Crossing Navy are structurally the same as the ballistas of the ancient Roman era, and even a little inferior - the best ballistas in ancient Rome used a large amount of steel and bronze components, which are not as stingy as the Crossing Navy, so This time-travel version of the ballista is a bit bulkier than the real original version. What is slightly more advanced is that it has a 360-degree rotating turntable, and there is a low gun profile on the turntable, which can provide the shooter with some basic protection.
Yu 1 is equipped with two such mechanical crossbows, one on the front and rear decks. Several experimental shootings by the Navy on the sea proved that if the gun is fired at 500 meters, whether it can hit the target depends entirely on luck, and it will hit when it is close to about 200 meters. The rate is much better.
Fortunately, in this era, the armaments of ships from various countries on China's coastal waters are not much better. As long as the navy is not overly enthusiastic and prepared to dominate the sea area with mechanical crossbows, it can defeat small groups of pirates near the coast and scare merchant and fishing vessels. Yes. After all, they have better ammunition than the Romans.
"Prepare No. 2 bomb!" the gunnery commander issued the command.
"Bullet No. 2 is ready!" A large firecracker-like object was loaded onto the mechanical crossbow.
Seeing Yu 1 approaching, the three fishing boats turned their sails in a panic, as if preparing to escape. The loudspeakers on the fishing boats began to play a pre-recorded recording in multiple dialects and Mandarin: ordering them to lower the sails immediately and accept examine.
After the recording was played, the sails on the fishing boat were indeed down, and some people were running around in panic between the decks and cabins.
"Get ready to join the boat."
This is something they are already familiar with. The jump gang members put on life jackets, each had a pistol and a machete, and stood on the side of the ship, waiting for orders.
"Jump." Following the order, the five team members jumped over the side of the ship one after another and landed on the opposite deck. Before they could stand firm, the rumble of cannons could be heard in their ears.
