    [236] 82 Wushang Ship As the revolutionary army occupied the country, while preparing for possible coastal landing invasion by Britain and France, preparations for the establishment of major military regions were also in full swing.  According to Yao Fan¡¯s instructions, the country was divided into ten major military regions, namely Beijing, Shenyang, Jinan, Nanjing, Guangzhou, Lanzhou, Chengdu, Wuhan, Kunming, and Fujian.  Among the ten major military regions, the Wuhan Military Region was later abolished by the People's Republic of China. The establishment of the Fujian Military Region was specially established by Yao Fan in order to strengthen the joint defense and contact between Fujian and Taiwan.  As the Russian Empire frantically massed its troops on the border, the world's most important event in 1877 - the Tenth Russo-Turkish War, was about to begin.  Britain and France seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly began to slow down the speed of gathering troops in Hong Kong, retaining only more than 15,000 colonial infantry in Hong Kong.  But at the same time, maritime patrols have been strengthened. Any ship flying the five-star red flag will be regarded as an attack target. The Royal Navy, which dominates the world, has engaged in piracy.  Yao Fan felt a little regretful when he received the news from the Guangzhou Military Region. He had originally expected to destroy the confidence of the British Empire in the Far East through another land battle, thus opening a breakthrough for peace talks.  Who would have thought that Britain and France would stand still and only use their navy to harass them.  "Navy construction will be accelerated!" Yao Fan ordered at the Central Military Conference.  "Chairman, at present, the work of the four major navies to reorganize the three major fleets has been basically completed. The Beiyang Navy has reorganized the North Sea Fleet and currently has 5 battleships. The Nanyang Navy has reorganized the East China Sea Fleet and has 6 existing battleships. The Fujian Navy and the Guangdong Navy have  The division has reorganized the South China Sea Fleet. There are currently 27 warships in the three major fleets. In addition to retaining the technical backbone, all political cadres are new. The General Political Department has confidence in the current combat style of the three major fleets after the reorganization. "Li, Director of the General Political Department!  Jun said.  "To be honest, our General Staff is not familiar with naval warfare. We are currently studying the naval drill and combat outline issued by the chairman on the basis of retaining most of the Manchu navy generals as instructors at the naval school. The navy's services are relatively complex and technical.  Gao, in order to cultivate qualified officers, I think we can try to hire some foreign instructors," said Luo Qiren, director of the General Staff Department.  "At present, we are mainly improving the construction of naval training facilities on land. As for the procurement and trial production of warships, we must do it step by step. The three major fleets must base themselves on the construction of bases and military ports. With the assistance of shipyard engineers invited from Germany by the Communist International,  Hurry up and build a large-tonnage shipyard," Yao Fan warned.  "At present, the shipyard construction at the Qingdao base under the Jinan Military Region is the fastest completed. Two 500-ton shipyards have been repaired, and a 1,000-ton shipyard is half completed. At present, some comrades at the Qingdao Naval Base suggest that the Manchu and Qing Dynasty legacy  The naval guns on the old warships should be dismantled and directly used as 80mm recoilless gun squads and machine gun teams to serve as maritime patrols," Jinan Military Region Commander Gui Ba suggested.  "I agree with this suggestion. This is in line with the chairman's idea of ??bayonet fighting at sea. However, our army currently only has 200 Type 82 80mm recoilless rifles, all of which are used for port defense. We cannot mobilize excess ones at the moment. Moreover,  The ship was bumpy, and I was afraid that the recoilless gun would be inaccurate after being mounted on the ship," said Zhou Sisi, director of the General Armament Department.  "The closer you get, the more accurate your shots will be. I've seen the 82mm practice, and one shot can destroy the city wall. I think it's better to replace all the garrison artillery at each port with the 82mm mortars that our army currently reserves in large quantities.  Get all the recoilless guns on board," said He Shicheng, director of the General Logistics Department.  "I agree with Comrade He Shicheng's opinion." said Gui Ba, Commander of Jinan Military Region.  Yao Fan thought for a while and said: "Guiba, you are the first batch of artillerymen in our army, and you are also the principal of the Qingdao Artillery School. Since you are sure to replace the recoilless guns with mortars for port defense, then you should study it.  , get a charter. "I have already studied this issue with the technical backbone of the artillery school. We think that based on the current domestic demand, about fifty mortar battalions of coastal defense artillery should be established.  They are deployed in various coastal military districts to carry out exclusive defense of important port areas and replace all recoilless guns.  Mount all 200 recoilless rifles of our army on warships, and fight the British to the death on the sea!  The advantage of a mortar battalion serving as port defense is that it can attack and defend. Using No. 6 charge, it can hit 4,660 meters, which is much farther than the 2,000 meters of the Type 82 80mm recoilless rifle. The 27 guns of a battalion form a coverage  , can effectively improve the hit rate against sea targets. Even if the opponent lands, the mortar battalion can also flexibly move positions and cooperate with the army to cause damage to the enemy's landing troops.  As for the 82 missile, once it is on the ship, it can use grenade attacks within 2,000 meters, and can use armor-piercing bombs as close as 500 meters, which is in line with the chairman's strategy of bayonet fighting at sea.  Seeing that Gui Ba was speaking eloquently, Yao Fan made a decision and said, "Then let's do it like this!"  Select a group of warships and let each port garrison unitThe 82nd gunless squadron of ?? was on board.  " Gui Badao: "Chairman, I'm worried that our artillerymen are all landlubbers. Once these comrades in the artillery squad get on the ship, they may get seasick, which may affect their combat effectiveness.  " Luo Qiren, director of the General Staff Department, said: "No one is born with water skills. If you practice hard for a while, you will not get seasick sooner or later.  Yao Fan said: "In order to quickly improve the navy's combat effectiveness, we can only use this move."  Whether it is easy to use or not depends on practice.  I order the Fourth Headquarters to make arrangements immediately. Prioritize the selection of fast warships, arm six to ten of them first, go to the Pearl River Estuary or the Yangtze River Estuary, and have a fight with the British warships that regularly come to harass. The best way to take advantage is to take advantage of them.  If it's not cheap, go to Hong Kong immediately.  "    "yes!  " "Although the naval commander has not been decided yet, the commanders of the three major fleets have to be appointed. I would like to announce now that taking all factors into consideration, Deng Shichang will serve as the commander of the North Sea Fleet, Ye Zugui will serve as the commander of the East China Sea Fleet, and Ye Fu will serve as the commander of the East China Sea Fleet.  Served as commander of the South China Sea Fleet.  As for the political commissars and political department directors of the three major fleets, the General Political Department has previously selected the most capable team configuration, so I will not repeat it again.  In short, the particularity of the navy determines the configuration of the leadership team. Front-line captains and fleet commanders first consider students from shipbuilding schools.  At the same time, we must use political excellence to promote military excellence. All political cadres must go to fleets and warships to mingle with sailors, and establish soldier committees on each ship as soon as possible to develop party members.  ?????????????????????After eating the wedding wine of Li Hainiu, Ji Dongyun, and after his daughter was one month old, Yao Fan traveled back to 2013 again.  During the last time Yao Fan left through time, the three-head discussion mechanism consisting of the Central Military Commission, the General Office of the Central Committee, and the Council of Ministers of the Government Affairs Council worked well, so Yao Fan left more confidently this time.  According to Yao Fan¡¯s instructions, a total of ten warships were mobilized for this battle to land artillery on the ship.  The entire North Sea Fleet, commanded by Deng Shichang, was dispatched. The five warships Caojiang, Meiyun, Haijing, Tai'an, and Weiyuan were the entire North Sea Fleet's assets.  On the 950-ton displacement Caojiang, all four 160mm naval guns with a total ammunition weight of more than 200 tons were removed. Instead, twelve 80mm recoilless gun squads were arranged on the 55-meter-long hull. In order to meet the needs of boarding the ship  , each recoilless gun squad was streamlined to four people. In addition, the ship was also equipped with 10 Type 81 light machine gun groups.  The 578-ton displacement Meiyun had all three guns, one 160mm and two 120mm, removed. Adding ammunition, the weight was reduced by more than 100 tons. Ten gun squads were arranged on the 53-meter-long deck, and six more were arranged.  Two-man machine gun team.  The 1,358-ton displacement Haijing, the 1,258-ton displacement Tai'an, and the 1,268-ton displacement Weiyuan were not modified, but only reduced the bomb load. Each carried six 82 gunless squads and six machine gun groups.  According to the plan, the North Sea Fleet will go south to Shanghai and choose an opportunity to fight with the British warships harassing the Yangtze River Estuary. According to Yao Fan, if you win, you will fight, if you cannot win, you will run away.  Deng Shichang is 28 years old this year, and it is the time when he should show his talents.  Ye Zugui is also a graduate of Fujian Mawei Shipbuilding School. He is 29 years old and has just been appointed as the commander of the East China Sea Fleet. He is very ambitious and wants to leave his name in the naval history of New China.  The East China Sea Fleet was also dispatched in its entirety. Six battleships were modified and two were modified, namely the 730-ton displacement "Sea" and the 572-ton displacement "Jingyuan".  In addition, the remaining four battleships of the East China Sea Fleet, like the North Sea Fleet, carry six to ten recoilless gun squads and about ten machine gun groups.  In March, a fierce bayonet battle will take place at the mouth of the Yangtze River.  A total of 11 warships from the North Sea Fleet and the East China Sea Fleet were dispatched in turns based in Shanghai. After patrolling the Yangtze River Estuary for about a week, the British warship was finally discovered.  This is the main force of the Chinese Fleet of the Royal Navy. The "Chinese Fleet" has the fourth-class battleship "HMS Elecott" as its flagship, and its commander is Baron Griggin.  After losing six warships in the Yangtze River War, Griggin put all the blame on Colonel Cox, who had died in Shanghai.  At present, the Chinese fleet has 9 warships. In addition to the fourth-level battleship ELLECOT, there is also a fifth-level battleship, two sixth-level battleships, two wooden gunboats, and three steam turbine sailing ships.  Since the three steam turbine sailing ships are mainly used to supply and transport coal and fresh water, they carry a small number of naval guns, each with only four guns, so their combat effectiveness is negligible. Only six British warships can fight.  According to the agreement between Britain and France, the Royal "China Fleet" is responsible for blocking and harassing transportation at the Yangtze River Estuary. France has pulled the Far East Fleet stationed in Vietnam to station in Hong Kong, and together with the East India Fleet is responsible for blocking the Pearl River Estuary and the Guangdong coast.  After discovering the British warship flying the Union Jack flag, Deng Shichang immediatelyOrdered: "Send a report to the East China Sea Fleet, tell Ye Zugui our position, and ask him to leave the port immediately to respond!" Deng Shichang's palms were slightly sweaty. Facing the world's largest navy, he had to be nervous.  Almost at the same time, Baron Griggin also discovered the North Sea Fleet. After observing it in an exquisite brass telescope, Baron Griggin ordered: "Send a flag and tell those braided guys that if they don't surrender immediately,  The Royal Navy will sink them all!" After saying that, Griggin ordered again: "All warships open their gun doors and prepare to destroy the enemy ships!" At this time, the distance between the two fleets was about fifteen kilometers.  Deng Shichang ignored Griggin's semaphore. He just desperately commanded the five warships of the North Sea Fleet to seize the upper wind. For recoilless guns with a range weaker than the enemy's naval guns, only by getting close to the opponent can they have a chance to kill the opponent.  For these wooden warships with hybrid power of steam engines and sails, seizing the upper wind means being able to approach the opponent as quickly as possible after the fight begins.  Facing the North Sea Fleet, which was desperately trying to seize the upper hand, Griggin's command was meticulous.  "The three supply ships Vigilante, Cleopatra, and Manuel turned back to the rear, and the remaining battleships followed the Ellecourt to seize the T position." There is no doubt that Griggin intends to use the T position tactics  Give the North Sea Fleet a severe blow.  Griggin judged that the opponent's behavior to seize the upper hand was undoubtedly hoping to quickly approach the battle. Griggin had full confidence in the firepower of the Royal Navy warships.  "These five motor-sailing boats are really ridiculous. Two of them are not equipped with naval guns! There are people on the deck. Are they too tired to die quickly enough?" r1058 varwosoadconfig={cid:"23130",aid:"1036"};
