The first thousand two hundred and sixty-ninth chapters start the siege
The fleet finally stayed 12 nautical miles from the shore of Vladivostok. This was a long distance, which was converted into kilometers, which was almost 20 kilometers. Without the help of optical instruments, it was just a human eye that could not see clearly what was on the shore. Ten huge balloons began to fly on the warships, and they would stay in the air between 400 and 700 meters for optical aiming detection.
The naval battle is about to begin. Cheng Biguang is coming to Vladivostok for the first time. It is also the first time that the northern fleet that came to Vladivostok. However, the 1:100 high-definition version of Vladivostok map placed in front of Cheng Biguang proves that before arriving in Vladivostok, all the preparations made by China were the first to travel to Vladivostok. However, everything about Vladivostok was still clear in the airplane and ground infiltration investigation. Every house, every street, and even every fort were clearly placed in front of every commander.
Vladivostok is a perfect base with sufficient defense. It is quite perfect in terms of artillery distribution. The largest fortress in the Far East of Russia, even Vladivostok, which was not completely trapped in the Russo-Japanese War, can reach the extreme in terms of protection. The only shortcoming at the beginning was probably that the artillery was a little older. The Vladivostok fortress was built decades ago. During the Russo-Japanese War, it was strengthened a little, but it was not strengthened later.
The main turrets of the entire fortress are 11 inches, and some 10 inches and 8 inches. In 1906, the 10 inches cannons were perhaps relatively advanced and stronger than the main guns of most Russian warships. However, they were behind this era. Even if they were built on high ground and had excellent design, the maximum range was no more than 6 nautical miles. To be honest, only God knows where they hit after more than 5 nautical miles.
Fantasy-class battleships have armor far more than ordinary battleships. It doesn't matter if they enter within 5 nautical miles. At this distance, 11-inch cannons cannot be armored by large ships. Be cautious that Cheng Biguang never does adventures and will not do useless work. He sorted out and fired a gun 12 nautical miles away.
The 6 battleships are arranged in a diamond-shaped structure, and the air balloon is released. They are aimed at the air more than 500 meters in the air, and more accurate parameters are given. The artillery command auxiliary system that has been installed on each battleship. Using computers and programs, the isolated parameters are summarized into the values of each target. Then, each gun position is attacked according to this.
This is China's major, perhaps in the field of naval warfare. China is still quite immature, but with the help of computer levels far exceeding the level of this era, China is world-class in terms of artillery bombardment from a long distance, even the Sher fleet is not as good as the Sher fleet, which is also equipped with artillery command system. After all, Sher's fleet is a castrated version of the command system, and it is added later, and many adjustments and improvements have not been made.
At present, the command system of the Northern Fleet has been fully improved with the efforts of countless information talents. Whether it is the reaction speed or the accuracy of aiming, it is far beyond imagination. When dealing with high-speed warships, the hit rate of one shot is very high, let alone a fixed turret.
"It's really a fool!" The commander of the Pacific Fleet, looking at the northern fleet that suddenly fired in the distance, said disdainfully. Facing the enemy, his choice to hide in the port did not mean that he did not know how to fight. On the contrary, he had participated in at least 4 battleship duels, and even survived the Pacific Fleet battle in 1906, which made him very disdainful of the other party's recklessness. It was also true that even if China became stronger and rose, it was still a child in the navy. Even if Japan defeated them, it had at least decades of naval road. It was still with the support of Britain that it had achieved today's results. China had no navy for almost 20 years since the Sino-Japanese War of 1894. What could it be if it had a main ship?
The largest fortress is built on the highest 352.43 highland by the sea. There are 12 forts distributed here in the shape of fish scales. It is the safest place in Vladivostok. The commander of the Far East Military Region and the commander of the Pacific Fleet are all within the fortress. This battle is related to the survival of the entire Far East. If Vladivostok is missing, the Far East Military Region will be completely isolated from the outside world. Not only will the supply and weapons not be transported, but the entire Far East will become a Jedi. Unless it can break through the Chinese defense, the command will become weaker and weaker. The final result of destruction will be able to enter the current level. No one wants to perish. It means that everything is over.
The shells only flew in the air for more than ten seconds. Just when the commander of the Pacific Fleet was still sneering, they had already fallen. Six main battleships and 60 artillery pieces seemed to be volleys at one time, but they were aiming and shooting separately. The largest fortress was on the inside, with a relatively high height, with an altitude of more than 300 meters. For any warship, it cannot be ignored. Only by clearing a series of turrets on the periphery can it reach the inside, so the navy's attack began with the outermost turrets.
In a round of volleys, he hit at least 50 rounds. Wu Yangfu has never seen such a hit rate. He can hit more than 12 nautical miles accurately. Did these Chinese people use magic?
Computer-aided systems have a very different accuracy. How to use computer computing power more efficiently, even in later generations, is a problem that is constantly studied. Why computers of the same specifications show great differences in their capabilities? The reason is that algorithms and integrated performance.
In this era, computer software and computer assistance were just beginning. Yang Yuanzhao used computer systems far beyond this era to bring China in the early 20th century to the information age. Although the entire China, even with the help of all-in-one computers, could not climb the technology tree of computers and information systems, software did not have many national boundaries.
In a sense, as long as there are basic programming methods, software can be continuously extended. Yang Yuanzhao has exactly the assembly language thing, and then it was promoted.
Computers not only changed a lot, but also brought different developments to China, such as train operation diagrams, computer-aided design, computer-aided manufacturing, and military command systems.
Although the warships led by Cheng Biguang seem to be similar to Sher's fleet, in fact, the changes are still quite large. The command system has been used to perform in the Baltic naval battle and all the data has been brought back. For the aiming system, performance and other things have a lot to do with experience. I have never encountered software, but I have never encountered it. Software cannot be smart enough, and it can be handled without encountering it.
Since the emergence of the command system, it has been tracking data, especially in the battle of the Baltic Sea and the showdown between the two largest navies in the world. I don’t know much valuable data. In real actual combat, without the environment, sea conditions, and even in different experiences, all the data is integrated together to find out the objective laws, so that we can go further.
In person, the data is recorded, and then the data is transmitted to the country through the radio. Then domestic researchers then classify and summarize the data based on these data, and finally get a more correct direction to push the system further. Now the data has been taken to a higher level and the command performance has also been improved.
In the air balloon, even if it is dozens of kilometers away, you can see the effect of artillery attack. The smoke of gunpowder has dissipated, making it more intuitive. 60 rounds hit at least 52 rounds of the turret. Although it is 12 nautical miles apart, the opposite target is also a fixed target that cannot move. With at least 20 different parameters from the air to the ground, how can the hit rate be low?
Even if you hit more than 50 shots, the damage to Vladivostok is really not great, at least 2 meters, at most 4 meters. Even if there is no reinforced concrete, there are rocks and sandbags, and on-land turrets, which can pile up almost infinite defenses, that is, China's shells are strong enough, otherwise, they may not even be harmed by the periphery.
Some lucky shells hit weaker places, overturned some hemp sandbags and outer cement, and some were simply bounced away by hard protection, and the real results were very small. The perfect shore-based turret would not be easily broken.
"It seems that high-explosive bombs are not enough!" After receiving the results of the battle, Cheng Biguang nodded slightly. The development of things was actually as expected. Although the first wave of test shots was extremely high, they were really test shots. On the one hand, they explored the lethality of the artillery to the Vladivostok, and on the other hand, they determined the direction and some subtle adjustments. After all, they did it, the artillery began to aim at more valuable targets.
Tungsten steel armor-piercing bombs were also loaded into the gun barrel. The Northern Fleet used tungsten steel armor-piercing bombs, which were the most powerful among all armor-piercing bombs. Not only was the specific gravity much higher than ordinary alloy steel, but even in terms of hardness, it was far better than the hardest alloy steel. Through excellent shell designers, they were designed to be qualified armor-piercing bombs, which could almost pass through most warship dealers. Even the fantasy-level warships armed to the teeth, except for the main armor, cannot pass through, other armors in front of tungsten steel armor-piercing bombs, are not much stronger than paper-paste.
Carrying armor-piercing shells with 15-inch cannons, it obviously tore a large number of turrets, 1 meter, 2 meter, 2.5 meter, or more than 3 meters of protection, blocking the attack of some armor-piercing shells. However, after the first shot hit and weakened the defense, the second shot was enough to destroy the turret. With the cooperation of the computer command system, the Northern Fleet swept across the entire perimeter of Vladivostok at a speed of 4 volleys per minute, like a hurricane, overturning and cleaning up all the turrets that are within their sight.
