Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 752
Equally excited was a group of officers and sailors from the Admiralty.

Under the name of the Xuebing Army, there are four major headquarters under the jurisdiction of the Army, Air Force, Navy, and Guerrilla Forces. However, no matter whether you are an outsider or someone in the game, they all know this fact. The status is very embarrassing. To put it bluntly, these two films actually exist in a symbolic sense.

For a time the officers and men of the Admiralty thought that the Commander-in-Chief had abandoned them.When you think about it, compared with the giant ships of the Japanese invaders, which are often tens of thousands of tons larger, the gunboats and torpedo boats of the Xuebing Army Navy are like sampans, they are too slender.When the officers and soldiers of the Ministry of the Navy discussed this matter in private, some people even laughed at themselves and said: Our navy is a real cannon fodder force.

This is not a joke. With the caliber of Japanese naval guns, even if they are not ready to hit, as long as the distance from the target is not too far away, then the gunboats and torpedo boats of the Xuebing Army may be overturned by the huge waves caused by the explosion.

The aircraft carrier plan of the Xuebing Army is currently the top secret, and there are very few people who know it.The current student army is still too cowardly compared to Japan, a war monster. Considering the complicated situation in the country, once this news is leaked, it will inevitably lead to extremely bad consequences.Once Japan devotes all its power to attack, the Xuebing Army will die.Based on this consideration, at present, the aircraft carrier is not the pride of the Admiralty. At this time, the significance of Ouyang Yun's arrival is unusual——

"As I said, the commander-in-chief will not abandon us! Look, am I right?"

"The commander-in-chief personally came to cut the ribbon for the 'Jinan', hehe, this shows that our navy still has a place in his heart!"

"Of course, Fujian, Yue and Qiong are all near the sea, and the whole of Hainan Island is in the ocean. The objective situation requires the existence of our navy!"

"That's what I said, but do you think that just a few gunboats of two to three thousand tons and a dozen torpedo boats of several hundred tons can fight against the little devil's aircraft carrier fleet? Just remember that the 'Akagi' was actually sunk by the air force. Yes, I feel uncomfortable—this is a disgrace to our Navy!"

A group of young naval officers were discussing in low voices. Not far away, Ouyang Yun was cutting the ribbon for the "Jinan" accompanied by Chen Yuanyang, deputy commander of the navy, and Huang Minhe, chief engineer of the Dafu shipyard.

"Crackling..." As the three big red flowers fell off the color plate, the sound of firecrackers sounded, "Woo——" the "Jinan" blew its whistle, and then slowly began to slide towards the sea.

"Is this the third torpedo boat you built?" Ouyang Yun watched the "Jinan" slide slowly, and asked the excited Huang Minhe.

Huang Minhe was startled, and then replied respectfully: "Yes, Commander-in-Chief, you have been paying attention to our production?"

Ouyang Yun smiled: "Of course. The first ship is 'Guangzhou', the second is 'Fuzhou', and this one is 'Jinan'. You spent nearly nine months on the first 'Guangzhou' , there was an accident during this period, and two workers were injured. You only spent half a year on the second "Fuzhou" and you also built a small gunboat at the same time. This one took even less time and only took four It's less than a month. Director Huang, you've worked hard!" After Ouyang Yun finished speaking, he solemnly saluted him.

Unexpectedly, he actually remembered these trivial things. Huang Minhe, who was already a little excited, burst into tears. He choked up and said repeatedly: "Don't dare to act, dare not act, this is what we should do..."

The predecessor of Daifuku Shipyard was just a small shipyard for manufacturing motor-sail fishing boats, and it did not have the ability to build warships at all.Huang Minhe led a group of students from the research and development institute and young workers recruited nearby, and only relied on the blueprints to build a torpedo boat from scratch. The hardships and difficulties involved can be imagined.Perhaps it is because he has endured too much hardship that he especially cherishes the current achievements, and Ouyang Yun's coming to cut the ribbon for the "Jinan" in person is undoubtedly the most direct and effective affirmation of his ability and hard work, so it is no wonder He would be so out of control.After all, before he presided over the Dafu Shipyard, he was just an old mechanic in a shipyard in the south of the Yangtze River.

Ouyang Yun understood his mood, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Director Huang, whether our navy can grow into a backbone force depends on you. No matter how brave our navy officers and soldiers are, it doesn't apply. Everything is useless, so your work is very important to the construction of the navy. The torpedo boat is just for you to practice. Next, you have to prepare to build large ships and submarines on this basis——Director Huang, you Do you know about submarines?"

"I heard. Commander-in-Chief, do we still need to build submarines?"

"Yes. It's not just submarines. When we have strength in the future, we will build bigger and more powerful giant ships. You can go to Hainan with me tomorrow to have a look. We also have a shipyard there. There, you You will be pleasantly surprised!"

This is Ouyang Yun's first visit to Dongshan.When the Xuebing Army was still developing in North China, Ouyang Yun asked Liu Zheliang to manage Dongshan Island, which shows how much he attaches importance to Dongshan.Liu Zheliang lived up to Ouyang Yun's high expectations. Although the construction of the industrial park was not ideal, the defense system of Dongshan County was well established.After the ribbon cutting, Ouyang Yun, accompanied by Chen Yuanyang, Bai Liusu and others, inspected the defense of the whole island. He was very satisfied after walking several places in a row. How long do you think you can hold on to the springboard with the naval force in your hand?"

Chen Yuanyang said: "That depends on the input of the Japanese aviation force. Commander-in-Chief, when Chief Liu was here, he attached great importance to the construction of the fort. If the Japanese army relied solely on the navy, with the number of coastal artillery we have now, we can persist for a day or two. Absolutely not a problem. I'm worried about air strikes now, our anti-aircraft firepower is obviously insufficient-"

"It doesn't matter, we also have fighter planes. Hehe, we are building a military airport in Dapu, and we will arrange at least three squadrons to take turns in Dapu. So, don't worry about air strikes."

"In that case, we should be able to stay on guard for two more days. Commander-in-Chief, I don't know what to say."

"Let's say, our student army doesn't engage in literary prisons, just say what you have to say."

"I think, with regard to Dongshan, perhaps giving up is the best choice."

"Abandoned?" Ouyang Yun was taken aback.

Chen Yuanyang looked at him and carefully explained: "Compared to the vast coastline of Fujian and Guangdong, Dongshan is too small. Once the Japanese army chooses to attack our Fujian and Guangdong from the sea, they have plenty of landing points, and they can even directly enter the Pearl River. We must land from Dongshan..."

"I understand what you mean," he was interrupted by Ouyang Yun before he finished speaking, "However, you only consider it from the perspective of defense. Haven't you thought about Dongshan's advantage in active offense? You said that once the Japanese attack Fujian and Guangdong by sea, they can choose any landing point to land. Have you ever thought about it? No matter where they choose to land, or even directly enter the Pearl River, what does the existence of Dongshan mean at that time? As long as we hold Dongshan firmly, we can launch an active attack from the flanks or even the rear at any time. Brother, it seems that you not only underestimated Dongshan, but also underestimated your Admiralty!"

Chen Yuanyang thought for a while and said with a wry smile: "Active attack? Commander-in-Chief, don't you really want us to use the torpedo boat to smash against the huge Japanese ship?"

Ouyang Yun stared at him with wide eyes and asked, "What's the matter? Is there a problem?"

Chen Yuanyang shut his mouth and smiled wryly, thinking in his heart: "It seems that the commander-in-chief knows very little about naval warfare. He actually expects to use a torpedo boat of several hundred tons to fight a giant ship of tens of thousands of tons—my God!"

From his expression, Ouyang Yun immediately guessed what was going on in his mind, and said, "Deputy Commander Huang, it seems that you haven't fully grasped the tactics of torpedo boats. I admit that if the same number of torpedo boats were used to attack the Japanese fleet, it would be normal." Under normal circumstances, it is death. However, you must not underestimate our torpedo boats because of this. Compared with the giant Japanese ships, what are the advantages of our torpedo boats? The first is radar. Radar can detect the enemy first, which means that the enemy can detect first. What are you looking for? We can preemptively deploy, occupy favorable terrain, and even use the terrain for ambushes. What is another advantage of our torpedo boats? Speed. Hehe, although the 'Ming-class torpedo boat' was not designed by me, I still remember the relevant parameters firmly..."

According to Ouyang Yun's previous thinking, the navy will have at least two hundred torpedo boats in the future.But now, with the aircraft carrier, if such small ships are produced without restraint, it will be suspected of wasting resources.The range of torpedo boats is limited, the combat method is single, and it is impossible to enter the deep blue waters to fight, all of which limit the role of torpedo boats.But even so, his ideal number of torpedo boats must be at least fifty.Fifty torpedo boats are matched with more than ten submarines. Even if they face the undamaged Japanese combined fleet, it cannot be said that they will not be able to fight.The cost of torpedo boats is low, compared with battleships, cruisers, and aircraft carriers, it is a world of difference. If you just convert it in value, even if you exchange fifty torpedo boats for an aircraft carrier or even a battleship, the student army will be able to make a solid profit—"Thought Think about it, once the naval battle starts, fifty torpedo boats will surround them like wolves in all directions, and with the help of fighter jets to suppress the bombers launched by the Japanese aircraft carrier, can the Japanese fleet completely avoid the approach of the torpedo boats with naval guns alone? Impossible .And once the torpedo boat gets close to the range, the situation on the battlefield will inevitably turn upside down. At that time, it will not be a question of whether the Japanese navy can protect the marines from landing successfully, but how they can minimize the loss of the fleet..."

Ouyang Yun named this kind of rogue tactics "Wolf pack tactics". This kind of tactics is rogue, but it is absolutely effective.

Chen Yuanyang is a veteran of the navy. He has worked with many famous Cantonese navy generals and has rich practical experience. This is why Ouyang Yun appointed him as Chen Ce's deputy.Although due to his knowledge, he seemed conservative when thinking about problems, but it did not prevent him from understanding Ouyang Yun's somewhat unbelievable strategy.

Ouyang Yun continued: "The only flaw of this tactic is that our personnel will definitely suffer a lot of damage." Having said this, he frowned and sighed, "But there is no way, we are weak after all. Apart from adopting this kind of life-for-life style of play, it is really impossible to curb Little Japan’s gangster tactics of relying on the strong and bullying the weak. Deputy Commander Huang, tell me, when this day really comes, our navy officers and men will , Will they attack desperately?"

"Of course!" Chen Yuanyang's chest puffed up, "When did our Cantonese Navy ever say that we were afraid? If this day really comes, look at it, Commander-in-Chief, we must be Cantonese at the front! Commander-in-Chief , did you hear something? Don't you believe us anymore?"

After the Xuebing Army's jurisdiction expanded, what followed was a conflict of interest among the various factions.This is an inevitable thing for any interest group, and Ouyang Yun has nothing to do about it.All he can do now is try to maintain an unbiased posture to prevent the situation from getting out of control.The most recent situation is that with the addition of the three Northwest Divisions belonging to Zhang Zizhong's 57th Army, the strength of the original Northwest Army has greatly increased. Cantonese and Xinfu.Although Chen Yuanyang is far away in Dongshan, he has also heard about some things in Guangzhou, so he made such remarks.

Ouyang Yun is well aware of the factional disputes in Guangzhou, and he is relieved that the situation is still under control because of the restraint and tolerance of the top leaders such as Li Tieshu, Ji Xingwen, Li Hanhun, and Jiang Shuren.Therefore, he was not worried about a fire in the backyard, or even getting out of control.Pretending not to understand what Chen Yuanyang said, he responded seriously: "No, I trust you, I trust everyone in the Xuebing Army, including myself." Then he changed the subject and switched to In terms of the current domestic situation - "According to the current situation, the Japanese will not endure for too long in the southeast. If my prediction is not bad, Xuzhou will soon fall, and by then, the Japanese army will definitely march into the northwest inland .Taiyuan is too far away from us. At present, even if we want to, we are powerless to help. But once the Japanese want to attack Wuhan, they must take Jiangxi. And once they send troops to Jiangxi, Fujian will become their confidant’s serious trouble—if I don’t expect it If it is worse, within a few months, the Japanese will definitely use a large number of troops against Fujian, Guangdong and Qiong. There are about ten torpedo boats in Hainan, plus some we bought from the United States and Germany, plus the previous Yes, there are more than [-] ships in total——Deputy Commander Huang, I am not worried about the morale of the Admiralty and the determination to fight the enemy, but I have to worry about the source of successors! Your Admiralty has rarely fought in recent years. If you suddenly go to the battlefield , Casualties are inevitable. I am very worried. If we only have ships but not enough soldiers, it will be a joke. Therefore, the most urgent task of your Navy Dongshan Branch right now is to train qualified naval officers and soldiers... ..."
