Chapter Eighty-Twenty-Nine(2/2)
Because the warships they captured from the Koreans were basically sunk by submarine forces in naval battles.
In that battle, it was the submarine force that made the greatest contribution.
As a result, Guo Yan was commended when he returned to China, and the entire submarine force also received first-class collective merit.
Obtained the military title of Sea Shark Detachment.
This title can be passed down forever.
In the Renaissance Army, only those troops who have made great achievements can have their own names.
This is a permanent honor and therefore very precious.
This time I went back, although the submarine detachment did not add new boats, it still made many improvements.
The most important thing is that they have a more practical underwater sonar.
Of course, this is not a real sonar, but it is already much stronger than the original earpiece amplifier.
In addition, the periscope was modified and the water depth of the periscope was increased.
Improved submarine underwater combat capabilities.
In the last battle, the submarine force was simply sitting back and waiting.
If the fleet hadn't fought hard to take damage, there wouldn't have been such a good chance.
But submarines must learn to fight independently in the future. They are underwater assassins for offense, not shields for defense.
As a young military officer, Guo Yan does not lack the motivation to innovate.
Likewise, the submarine force he leads is also a young force and also has the need to explore and innovate.
Guo Yan is twenty-five years old this year. Last time he went back, he got married in Xinjing.
His wife is a teacher at a government primary school in Xinjing City. The person who brings her together is Wei Yuzhen, the teacher’s wife.
Many children in the Junior Military Academy are orphans, and Dong Shuheng treats them as his own children.
Not only did he cultivate them and give them a bright future, but he even arranged their marriages clearly.
The matchmaking was naturally handled by Dong Shuheng's wives.
Guo Yan lowered his head and glanced at the ring on his ring finger.
It seems that I saw my wife's pretty face with some baby fat.
My wife is a lady, very quiet, knowledgeable and courteous.
Guo Yan was an orphan. After getting married, he settled down in Xinjing. Naturally, his sister also moved into his home, just to keep him company with his wife.
As a naval officer, I am destined to spend most of my time wandering at sea.
He felt guilty about his wife, but she could understand him.
My wife's family also takes great care of me. They don't look down on me because I am an orphan.
This time when he went to Cape Town, he hoped to cooperate with the fleet to fight the three-dimensional battle that the president talked about.
This is a huge challenge for the submarine detachment, but it is also an excellent opportunity.
Because the accuracy of current naval guns is not enough, the communication method has shortcomings.
The submarine is underwater and its own warships cannot be seen, so it is easy to cause accidental damage during combat.
This requires Guo Yan and his captains to accurately calculate their course of action underwater.
Not only your own route, but also the enemy's warship action route must be calculated.
In Cape Town, at this time, the people of the Republic of China did not know that the navy of the Renaissance Army was already coming towards them.
But they have been taking precautions.
The newly established Indian Ocean Fleet of the Great Empire had a total of fifteen ironclad ships.
Among them are two battleships, which are the so-called armored cruisers of the Renaissance Army. There are also five fast cruisers, which are the destroyers of the Renaissance Army.
Such a fleet may not necessarily be able to take advantage in a head-on confrontation with the Renaissance Army.
But if you just defend in the port, you can still fight.
The Chinese people still have a certain understanding of the strength of the Second Fleet of the Renaissance Army.
That's why they make targeted deployments.
The Cape Town Colony is now the first line of defense for the Korean people against the Renaissance Army, and the Korean people themselves also attach great importance to it.
Zhang Yong was wandering leisurely in the port area wearing a police sergeant's uniform.
He has returned from his homeland.
Because of the pass system of the Renaissance Army, he could only visit relatives in his hometown for one month.
This is also the time limit within which they can perform their tasks.
During this month, he faithfully performed his duties as a large intelligence officer.
They went upstream along the Yangtze River and successfully visited the submarine base. Although they didn't get anything valuable, they finally saw the submarine.
Next, they took a train from Wuchang south to Guangzhou.
On the way, Zhang Yong accompanied Sun Xiang to play tricks, and at the same time, with the cooperation of Liu Hao, he secretly met with people from the Military Intelligence Bureau.
He was to learn how to use a wireless telegraph in a short time.
This is difficult to play, and Zhang Yong, who has no culture to begin with, is very difficult to play.
Fortunately, he finally learned it.
Zhang Yong did not really go back to his home, because then he might reveal his secret.
Because of Zhang Yong's relationship, his family can enjoy the treatment of military dependents. Sun Xiang can see this. They stopped and went along the way, and they also wanted to spy on intelligence.
