Chapter 3571: is it possible?

Qin State, Xianyang. Inside the Air Defense Command. A staff officer is reporting.

"Sir, the blind man we found has found it. There are a lot of about thirty people." A major staff officer reported to his chief of staff.

"No, that's not enough. We need more blind men. Go and find some more. The sooner the better." The chief of staff said to the major staff.

"Yes, sir." The staff doesn't know why they find so many blind people. This is strange, but it's quite normal, because blind people's hearing is many times that of others. This may be another benefit they get after losing their eyes. . The staff member suddenly remembered something like this.

At this time, the Qin Air Defense Force did not have radars, and they were unlikely to find radars, because such experiments had not yet been carried out, and the air defense problem had not yet accumulated to a very important level. This means that they still need a large number of people with good hearing, through some special devices, those sound collectors, and then hand them to these blind people to let them distinguish the sound of the enemy's airship engines and the sounds of various aircraft. Then be prepared to deal with it. Although it sounds very interesting, they don’t know whether it can have such a good effect. There is no way. If they simply use search airships to do it, they lack too many airships. . It is simply impossible to meet such a task.

At the same time, for the purpose of air defense, all large airships were also invented. They set up some bombing barriers in series, but these barriers need to be dense to achieve the desired effect, but for now, they are still preparing. It is not very sufficient, but the exercise is unlikely to give them so much time to prepare. This time the preparation time is not very sufficient.

State of Zhao, Handan.

"Qin people are planning a larger air defense exercise. It seems that through the sparrow incident, they have realized the importance of air defense. This is for us. This may not be good news." Li Mu said.

"Yes, sir, but we are also actively changing this situation. At present, our artillery factory is researching more anti-aircraft guns, maybe they can play more roles. At the same time, some fighter pilots have also begun to actively train. They want to protect the safety of the capital." A staff officer added. Under Zhao Wang's interference. Some things are beginning to be taken seriously, for example. The development of anti-aircraft guns and the rapid development of equipment work must know that they had been extremely procrastinated in the research of such anti-aircraft guns before, because the government was unlikely to pay them and believed that this project was definitely a pitfall to them. But now, they have no such idea. They believe that this may be a greater opportunity.

However, the development work is not very smooth, because the demand is relatively large, and the time is tight. If the development is purely carried out, it will take at least a cycle of more than a year. This cycle cannot be waited for by the Zhao State army. The people of Qin State have realized this aspect. Once a war breaks out, the consequences will be disastrous. The only way is to transform the existing artillery and carry out research at the same time.

But the results of the research are not very good. First of all, their initial velocity is relatively low, the chamber pressure is relatively low, and the shooting height is not satisfactory. In the case of 37mm anti-aircraft artillery, he can only hit a distance of up to three kilometers, but the actual combat distance may be less than two thousand. This means that to a higher degree, their power is even lower. This is because the shells they took were not specifically designed to deal with flying weapons. They need to study again. Of course. Some equipment can still be put into production on a large scale, for example, anti-aircraft machine guns, this thing can achieve a certain effect as long as the machine gun is modified, but this is only better than no weapons, for them. It’s not a good weapon at all, because in comparison, they found that Zhao Jun’s ground troops were more likely to be attacked by the Qin’s air force. In order to increase their air defense capabilities, the machine gun was given this sacred mission, but many People feel very current about the caliber of the machine gun and the power it produces. The seventy-nine ammunition seems to be insufficient. They hope to develop a bigger bullet, but in that case, the military will need to spend another sum of money. Obviously they are unwilling to do so.

Jeju Island, the defense military on the island is gradually strengthening, but the time is still very bad for them.

"There are too many fortifications to be completed on the island. But according to the current progress, it is still not very satisfactory. Because of the winter conditions, we only completed a little more than five percent of the outline defense weight. Many places are just built. Some superficial fortifications, in fact." Xue Haijiang said to the South Korean Navy Deputy Commander worriedly.

"I can see it. The defense issue is still not optimistic. This is very different from our original progress." The Navy Deputy Commander said anxiously. This made them feel that it is very unrealistic to rely solely on the defense force on the island to defeat the Goguryeo fleet.

"Yes, we are also aware of this, so we urgently hope to increase our naval power, of course. We will find ways to make up for it in terms of funds." Xue Haijiang said. If there is no Bank of Korea to provide a large amount of funds at a critical time, I am afraid that their warships will not be able to further increase. The speed of building warships in South Korean shipyards is still faster, but the construction plan of Chu State is quite slow. Because the follow-up funds are not yet in place, Jeju Island has dispatched a diplomatic mission to Qin. They hope that Qin can continue to provide more financial support. They currently have only 20 destroyers, one cruiser in the process of being equipped, and the strength seems to be good, but compared with Goguryeo, they feel very ashamed.

The two countries of Qi and Zhao, plus one of Yan, can build five modified destroyers, of course. Their weapons and equipment need to be equipped in Laizhou Port, which they cannot do. But the speed of this construction has greatly exceeded their expectations. Goguryeo already has forty-five destroyers and more than 27 frigates, and they can be used for minesweeping. At the same time, they also have three large cruisers, all with tonnages above 7,000 tons. It is said that the latest ship launched has exceeded 9,000 tons. They are equipped with three 275mm artillery pieces. This type of artillery can completely wipe out the fortifications they have just built. This makes them feel very worried that this level of war will make them unbearable.

"As for Goguryeo, they have sufficient funds. After all, they have gold mines. The slaves from Wadao Island can allow them to mine more gold without restrictions, but we can't do this. Our situation is not very optimistic." Said the Undersecretary of the Navy. He knew the strength of the Koguryo Navy too well. They have almost expanded a huge naval force in a very short period of time, while in Jeju, their naval strength is relatively weak. It seems that they can no longer fight each other.

"If we can effectively integrate the defense of Jeju Island and the maritime military power, I believe that we still have a chance to defeat them." The navy deputy said, seeing Xue Hai very worried.

"Many of our officers believe that they cannot do this. After all, our military tonnage is still relatively small. The only thing we can do is to hide. Only in this way can we avoid a larger-scale battle." Xue Hai some Speaking pessimistically. After all, he was exposed to too much pessimism.

The overall strength of the Koguryo Navy continues to grow wildly. It seems that only this can make them shameless. In contrast, Jeju’s equipment is not so sufficient. As some comfort, South Korea has supported some weird ones. For example, submarines, I heard that some torpedo boats will also support them, and then some airships that throw a lot of aerial bombs from the air. They really doubt that these things can achieve their expected effects? Obviously this seems unlikely.

"Don't worry, we still have a lot of investment in new weapons. They will bring us a great improvement in combat effectiveness. I think you should believe this. Our staff is also actively engaged in combat. Don't worry. They will do their own thing.” Said the Undersecretary of the Navy. But whether it is effective or not is not clear to him. However, he felt that it seems that Jeju has no such confidence to win this war. After all, military forces still struggle.

In the naval proving ground outside Qingcheng, Jiaozhou, South Korea.

"Damn it, turn it faster, turn it faster." The 130mm guns on the shore are turning quickly, but no matter how fast they can catch each other, they can form a wall of fire at first. However, after those fast-dead torpedo boats approached quickly, they lost their target because the speed of their mechanical adjustment of the anti-artillery was too slow.

"Damn it," the artillery sergeant cursed loudly. Because the torpedo boats have entered their blind shooting corners. They couldn't further capture the opponent's target.

"Sir. The mechanical handle is too heavy. We are desperately desperate. They can't stop the opponent at all. Their assault speed is too fast, and they are constantly changing. We are not a 20mm rapid-fire gun, but a 130mm cannon. "An artilleryman complained, they have done so very hard.

"I think we can only deal with such a situation if we are equipped with a motor-driven turret. Otherwise, we will not be able to do such a thing at all." Another artillery said.

"Okay. Let's not say. I went to report to the top." The sergeant said angrily. Their artillery is too heavy. These speedboats can only be dealt with at a longer distance. Once they are allowed to enter a place where they are less than five nautical miles away, their situation will immediately become bad, because they are fast, and at the same time, they need to mobilize more artillery to form firepower. The wall can form an effective interception, but if the opponent constantly assaults from other aspects.

"It seems that the results of the experiment are still good. These torpedo boats can indeed cause a lot of damage to them. Artillery cannot be further defended. If we can disrupt the opponent's formation, then we will cause them. A lot of damage.” A staff officer of a navy lieutenant colonel watched the whole experiment. In order to prove that these torpedo boats have a great effect, the South Korean Navy conducted such an exercise. It seemed at the beginning of the exercise. Artillery can also cause greater suppression of the opponent, especially in the range of two nautical miles to five nautical miles, the discharge of artillery caused great danger, and many speedboats were knocked out during the exercise. It is marked carefully through a targeting system. But after the distance is close, especially after the critical point of two nautical miles, this is a very critical point. Usually at this position, they can release the torpedo. But in order to seek a higher standard of shooting, they must get closer, if so. Their combat power will be greater, which is obviously a combat target with a very huge threat.

"At the same time, we have also proved. In the absence of rapid-fire guns, those large warships will lack enough artillery fire. Their artillery will become extremely heavy because of the large-caliber artillery, and their defense against flexible targets will It will become extremely inefficient and a lot more inefficient. I think we should pay attention to this. Maybe we will launch a fatal blow to them in a place where we need to attack the most." A navy staff officer said suddenly very happy. To. He seems to have found a fundamental way to solve the problem.

"But the problem is that if their formation is very strict, it will be very detrimental to us. This means that their artillery can be fired in a unified manner, and those warships on the periphery can provide effective protection to them. For us, it is the most deadly. We must find a secret weapon that can disrupt their formation. Otherwise, their existence will pose a great threat to us, which is extremely detrimental to us. It’s.” Another naval staff officer put forward such a view. In their view, it seems that they are unlikely to disrupt the opponent’s formation at once. Unless they destroy their own formation, they will have no way to solve this problem. Yes, you know, many times they can't take the initiative to disrupt.

"We can sacrifice the destroyer fleet to let them do this," said the navy staff officer. This scared the other party. This means that the number of warships they sacrificed may be a lot. Let the destroyer launch an attack. This seems to be suicide. Is it possible?
