All-people naval warfare: from patrol boats to aircraft carrier fleets

As long as there is a battle, especially this kind of frontal artillery battle, the battleships will inevitably be damaged. Ye Bai can completely understand this, but this time the opponents are only three damaged destroyers.

As for our own side, two New Orleans-class heavy cruisers and one Fletcher-class destroyer, no matter how you look at it, they are all crushing the opponent's strength. In the end, because of Luo Mingxuan's cunning operations, the fight turned out to be like this. Even Wusu All suffered serious damage.

This is also the reason why Ye Bai is very unhappy this time. If it is just some minor damage, then it is not a big problem. At least before the system rules are changed again, it is quite easy to solve. You only need to use the repair materials purchased in the system mall to build a group of battleships. The repairman can easily solve it, which is very convenient and fast. It can also be regarded as a benefit of the system for players in the early stage.

But if it's like the Wusu, where a big hole was blasted in the hull and many cabins inside were damaged, it wouldn't be that simple. You either have to spend a huge price to buy a lot of repair materials and repair materials. Damaged equipment is repaired by battleship maintainers.

Or they can only send it to the shipyard and let professional engineers and workers use the materials at hand to repair it. This may be more difficult for other players, but it is much simpler if it is replaced by Ye Bai. After all, The small space in the logistics cabin on the Yanhuang is not a problem for repairing the warship, but even for building a brand new warship.

However, the Wusu was the flagship of the pirate fleet that was blown to pieces the last time we were at the resource point. It had just been repaired not long ago, and was delivered to Luo Mingxuan again by Ye Bai in less than a day. Ah, it actually has to be returned to the factory for repair. What is this?

Well, no matter how angry Ye Bai was with Luo Mingxuan, the Wusu was still a battleship under his command. With such a"big" hole blasted in the hull, he couldn't just leave it alone.

So with an order, using the ability of the transmission platform, the Wusu, which had just walked out of the small space of the logistics cabin, was sent into the small space of the logistics cabin again. The shipyard, which had already begun to build the warship with all its strength, had to redeploy some workers again. Come out with the engineer and start repairing the Wusu.

As for the captain, Luo Mingxuan was not idle either. While leading his crew to assist the shipyard in repairing the Wusu, he was also constantly reviewing whether he had been among pirates for too long after leaving the regular fleet. Wow, to be able to make such a low-level mistake in a naval battle is a disgrace to all the years of study.

Not long after the fleet left Isin Island, such a situation occurred due to a small-scale encounter. Although it was a victory, it actually had some impact on morale.

Especially after Ye Bai informed the entire fleet of Luo Mingxuan's punishment decision, the atmosphere of the entire fleet changed.

Speaking of which, the Chinese fleet has been winning consecutive battles since the day it was established. Many officers and soldiers have sufficient confidence that they can defeat any opponent. It can even be said to be a little conceited.

And because Ye Bai is not good at management and leadership, the discipline of the entire fleet is actually a bit poor. Later, if it were not for the help of Lütjens and Ramsay, the discipline of the army would be loose.

However, in the hearts of some officers, there is no sense of crisis. In their view, victory in the battle must belong to them. What they need to consider is how to obtain more results and achieve more military exploits. It's easy to make mistakes with this mentality.

This time, with the example of Luo Mingxuan, the entire fleet finally saw that Ye Bai's method was not very clever, but it was not that he would not punish some subordinates who made mistakes. Everyone felt a shiver in their hearts and began to reflect. own past behavior.

He secretly made up his mind to be more cautious in battles in the future. Being punished for making mistakes is not terrible. They are not Luo Mingxuan. Even if their military pay is deducted, they still have the savings from last month, so there is no need to worry about being unable to entertain themselves.

But what really worries them is that if they lose their status in Ye Bai's heart because of mistakes, that will be the biggest punishment. The vigorous development of the Chinese fleet is in the eyes of all of them.

As the size of the fleet continues to expand, everyone's status will also rise. If you make a mistake at this time and be remembered by Ye Bai, it will be difficult to get up in the future. This is something no one is willing to do. have witnessed.

Ye Bai made the decision to punish Luo Mingxuan independently. Lütjens and Ramsay did not dissuade him. After all, Luo Mingxuan did make a mistake and he deserved to be punished.

And the two of them were quite pleased. After all, as an army, discipline always comes first. As subordinates before, they couldn't say something directly. They could only control the low-level officers and lower-level soldiers through their own actions. , as for the officers above the school level, they did not dare to intervene at will, and the only choice was Commander Ye Bai himself.

After this small episode, the Chinese fleet set sail again, but the mental outlook of all the officers and soldiers had undergone great changes. In the minds of all the officers and soldiers, the former Ye Bai was naturally a good commander, and he gave them The treatment is quite good, and he is naturally loved by everyone, and his loyalty is not low.

But now, they discovered that their commander not only had a gentle side, he would also punish him when he got angry. Fortunately, this battle was won. If he had lost, Luo Mingxuan would probably end up even worse..

Unknowingly, in addition to loving their commander, the officers and soldiers of the fleet also felt a sense of awe. They did not just regard Ye Bai as a mascot like a logistics minister.

During the following voyage, everyone was a little more careful and cautious, and some of the laziness in the past was wiped away. Although they still encountered several small-scale pirate fleets on the way, it was naturally the Chinese fleet that won the victory in the end. won.

The opponent's strength was too weak, so the Yanhuang still did not launch carrier-based aircraft to launch an attack. The Dongyang and the newly repaired Wusu led the teams respectively, using artillery battles to send all the discovered pirate fleets into the sea. Feed the fish.

With Luo Mingxuan, now Ye Bai, Lütjens, Ramsey and others have understood that these small-scale pirate fleets are almost not regular pirate forces, and are only used as whetstones and treasure chests for players.

Therefore, they fought without mercy at all, and they did not expect the other party to surrender like Luo Mingxuan by raising the white flag, so they directly used powerful firepower to sink it.

In the subsequent battles, Luo Mingxuan did not realize his mistake, or he really realized his mistake. He knew his shame and then became brave. Not to mention how perfect his performance was, but he fought steadily and never underestimated the enemy or even made any mistakes. A low-level error situation.

According to Lütjens, Luo Mingxuan is still affected by his former pirate career and is not at his peak, but now he has gradually recovered his former self. If nothing unexpected happens, his future performance will be It’s getting better and better, and even better.

Hearing these words, Ye Bai also felt a little satisfied in his heart, but he did not cancel the previous punishment of Luo Mingxuan. After all, such behavior was normal for a naval lieutenant colonel, and could only be said to be quite satisfactory.. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Unless Luo Mingxuan's performance is very impressive, or even makes great contributions, Ye Bai will consider canceling his punishment or giving him a reward, otherwise he can't change it overnight.

With the current strength of the Chinese fleet, to be honest, unless it encounters a large fleet of pirate forces or aboriginal forces, it can really be said to be invincible.

Especially two days after the fleet left Isin Island, the first batch of two Type VIIC submarines started at the shipyard were finally completed and officially added to the establishment of the Chinese fleet.

Type VIIC submarine: a surface displacement of 769 tons, an underwater displacement of 871 tons, a maximum surface speed of 18 knots, a maximum underwater speed of 8 knots, and a design diving depth of 22 meters.

There are 5 torpedo launch tubes, 4 installed at the bow and one at the stern, carrying 14533mm diameter torpedoes, 1 88mm plate cannon and 1 20mm gun.

The natural lethality of submarines that use torpedoes as attack weapons is quite amazing, but the consumption of funds is also terrifying, especially under the unique combat rules of the great maritime world, the role of submarines is actually limited to some extent.

However, in Ye Bai's hands, the submarine effectively avoided the disadvantage of slow speed. Instead, it was because during the battle, the transmission platform was directly used to transmit from the small space of the logistics cabin to the outside sea surface.

Fortunately, the transmission points of the transmission system can be changed at will. Otherwise, these submarines would have to appear directly on the sea surface, losing the effect of covert attacks.

It's just that the VIIC submarine has a huge flaw, that is, after emptying the torpedoes in the torpedo tube, it takes 10 to 20 minutes to load another torpedo. With this time, the battle may have ended long ago. Therefore, most of the time, the VIIC submarine has a total of 5 attack opportunities.

Even if all 5 torpedoes hit the opponent's warships, they can only sink one destroyer at most. For warships above the light cruiser level, they can only severely damage them.

It is also for these reasons that the first batch of submarines built by Ye Bai at the shipyard was only 2. Although it only took 2 days to successfully build a VIIC submarine, he did not build it on a large scale. submarine.

It was only when he was in a naval battle that Ye Bai realized that he had really underestimated the role of submarines. It is true that due to insufficient numbers, submarines may not be able to act as the main force in naval battles, but sneak attacks from under the sea often make those enemy warships There is no way to notice the loss at all..
