Wei Jichen stayed in the submarine for half a quarter of an hour. He was excited and depressed at the same time. He was excited because he had just obtained such a murderous weapon, but he was depressed because he didn't understand anything and didn't dare to move. At most, he turned on the light and could only watch and worry. .

No, we have to find Yang Yonglin.

Rows of houses have been built here at Kuaima Shipping Headquarters on Changxing Island to serve as residences for the company's employees. The shipping company's welfare is definitely much better than that of later large companies.

Food and accommodation are included, and even sailors can be assigned a large house.

As the commander of the fleet, Yang Yonglin was even allocated a small courtyard. Compared to being a steward in the Beiyang Navy, the salary was much higher.

Yang Yonglin was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, all because of Wei Jichen.

"Oh, my feet!" Yang Yonglin looked at his bare knees. His calf had been completely lost. Yang Yonglin asked someone to buy a prosthetic limb from abroad and wanted to walk with his own power.

Why are you thinking so much? After turning over, Yang Yonglin continued to think: Just take care of the affairs of the fleet. The Horse has two warehouses that can be expanded and can hold more cargo.

Well, Wei Shuai should be advised to install some weapons on each ship, so now the company's route is only from Lushun to Dagukou. This line is relatively peaceful, but as the business grows in the future, there is no guarantee that we will not encounter pirates or the like. The ship cannot do without some cannons.

The cargo ship was not without armed forces. Wei Jichen equipped the sailors with rifles, and each ship was equipped with two Maxine machine guns. However, Yang Yonglin, who was born in the navy, first thought not of personal equipment, but of transforming the ship.

Bang bang bang…

There was a knock on the door, interrupting Yang Yonglin's reverie. Who would come to me so late? Did something big happen to the shipping company?

Yang Yonglin quickly sat up, put on his clothes, and said: "Please come in, the door is not locked."

Yang Yonglin has difficulty moving, and there are no lawless people on the island, so he sleeps with the door closed every day.

Two soldiers came in carrying lanterns. When Yang Yonglin looked at their faces, he found that they were the personal soldiers beside Wei Jichen. He asked out of curiosity: "Is it Commander Wei who is looking for me? Could something big have happened so late?"

One of the soldiers smiled and said, "You will find out when you get there."

The two men lifted him up, and Yang Yonglin looked puzzled. Seeing them lifting him towards the mysterious port, he became even more curious.

You know, since the port was repaired, even Yang Yonglin was not allowed to enter.

Yang Yonglin watched carefully along the way and was secretly frightened. He saw many checkpoints along the way, with one post every five steps and one sentry every ten steps. From time to time, he would find one or two soldiers looming in the dark. What made him feel even more uncomfortable was that it seemed that Wherever they went, there were people watching their group of people warily.

This is a civilian port, and it is heavily guarded, even more so than a military port. Could there be some ulterior secret hidden inside? Yang Yonglin's heart beat loudly, as if he felt that he was one step closer to Wei Jichen.

Hey, there was a ship in this port. In the darkness, Yang Yonglin only saw a rough outline. When he got closer, Yang Yonglin discovered that this behemoth was about 30 meters long and 20 meters wide.

"What kind of new cargo ship is this? I have never seen it before." Yang Yonglin, who thought he had seen a lot, looked curiously at the steel beast half floating on the water. The cold smell emanating from the ship made him interested. Most of the time, I started to think hard.

When he was only ten meters away, Yang Yonglin was suddenly shocked. He suddenly felt that this ship was somewhat similar to the submarine described.

As a naval general, Yang Yonglin naturally paid great attention to the situation of the navies of various countries. During the Civil War, the United States built a ship that could sail underwater and prepared to attack enemy ships with mines, and achieved results, sinking the warship. The Monsatoni was the first submarine to sink a warship.

More than thirty years have passed since the American Civil War. Although various countries have not paid much attention to the role of submarines, they have also conducted relevant research and developed many submarines.

As far as Yang Yonglin knows, in 1880, the Tianjin Machinery Bureau secretly developed an underwater machine ship. The Machinery Bureau blocked a section of the Haihe River channel with a wall. At that time, the Beiyang Navy was vigorously developing. This underwater machine ship It was completed in the autumn of that year, and a trial was conducted in the Haihe River. The ship sailed half on the water surface, and was extremely agile.

The news was leaked, which caused a stir in the press and caused a great sensation. Countries around the world paid attention to it.

Yang Yonglin was the first mate of the Beiyang Fleet at the time, and he knew some inside stories that others did not know. After the successful development of this underwater machine ship, the Tianjin Machinery Bureau was ready to invest more funds and manpower in development.

However, at this critical moment, the underwater machine ship mysteriously disappeared. Even the information about the manufacturing of underwater machine ships in the Machinery Bureau was on fire and burned completely. After an investigation, the finger pointed directly at The great powers and the Qing government did not dare to investigate further, nor did they dare to develop underwater machines and ships, so the matter was left alone.

The most advanced submarine in the world today is the 'Gustave Zied' developed by the French two years ago. It is said that it is about 40 meters long and has a displacement of more than 260 tons.

In this era, the most advanced weapons and warships developed by various countries were not regarded as secret weapons, but were vigorously promoted to other countries. Therefore, Russia ordered two submarines from Germany.

Could it be that the imperial court secretly developed this product elsewhere? The shell that resembles a torpedo boat, the tight appearance, and the precise welding all indicate that this submarine is definitely at the forefront of the world. Yang Yonglin was shocked.

Thinking about it, Yang Yonglin felt that it was impossible. Such a big news, no matter how well it was kept secret, there was absolutely no chance that the slightest information would be leaked under the surveillance of the great powers.

Before Yang Yonglin could react from the shock, two soldiers had already carried him to the dock, only a few meters away from the submarine. Yang Yonglin stretched out his hand with excitement, wanting to touch the behemoth, but he couldn't reach it.

"Brother Yang, what do you think of this submarine?" A loud voice rang in Yang Yonglin's ears. He turned his head and saw Wei Jichen standing aside and looking at him with a smile.

"Wei Shuai, this, this is really beyond my expectation." Yang Yonglin was so excited that he couldn't even finish his words. If he could stand up, he would definitely run forward and kiss the shell of the submarine.

Wei Jichen smiled mysteriously and said lightly: "In the future, there will be more surprises waiting for Brother Yang. From today on, this submarine will belong to you."

"Belongs to me?" Yang Yonglin asked, pointing to his nose with a face full of joy and disbelief.

Wei Jichen said solemnly: "Brother Yang is so talented, how can I bury you and treat you as the commander of a fleet? Now, I will appoint you as the commander of the 'Wolf Pack'. These three submarines will belong to You are in charge, and I hope you can lead them, like a pack of wolves, with a small and a large body, to surround them and eat the prey that is more ferocious than themselves. "

"My subordinates must be very cruel to repay the kindness of knowing me." Yang Yonglin struggled to roll off the stretcher and kowtowed several times on the ground.

Wei Jichen was surprised. He didn't expect Yang Yonglin to be so excited. He threw an observation skill and found that his friendliness towards him jumped from the previous 70 to over 90.

"Brother Yang, you don't have to be like this." Wei Jichen stepped forward to help him up and said with a smile: "Let us contribute our own efforts to the rise of the Chinese navy."

Yang Yonglin's lips trembled, he was extremely excited and murmured: "I never thought that Yang's incomplete body could still contribute to the development of the navy."

Although Yang Yonglin guessed in his heart that Wei Jichen's submarine detachment must have been secretly established without telling the court, he had long been disappointed with the Qing court and did not express any opinions on this. In the end, the two of them talked about the Chinese navy, not the mainland. The Qing Navy itself explains a lot of things.

Yang Yonglin looked at Wei Shuai, who was younger than himself but had a majestic aura, and thought of his series of legendary experiences. His speed of rise was unparalleled and his future was even more unpredictable. Perhaps, he was following behind him. It is possible to change China.

"Come on, Brother Yang, let's board the submarine and talk about it." Wei Jichen didn't care what Yang Yonglin thought. In short, the friendliness level could not be deceived. It reached a high of 90 points. As long as he didn't do anything that would make people angry, he would have nothing to worry about. He will rebel against himself.

Yang Yonglin exclaimed as soon as he climbed onto the top of the submarine.

"I didn't expect that this submarine is also equipped with a cannon, which can not only attack underwater, but also conduct artillery battles on the surface. Yes, not bad."

"This? Elevator? It should be used to solve the problem of longitudinal stability. Hey, that's it. The outer shell is similar to a torpedo boat, and there is a much different inner shell. The space of the inner shell is a ballast water tank, which can control the submarine's Diving and surfacing, well, after ascending, the water in the water tank can be removed, and it will have good seaworthiness like a torpedo boat. After filling with water, it can sail smoothly underwater. "

Yang Yonglin was full of praise, his eyes glowing when he looked at various equipment.

"Brother Yang, several Russian cruisers anchored in Jiaozhou Bay are coming to Lushunkou. Therefore, I want to annihilate them in one fell swoop before they set off. I wonder how long it will take for Brother Yang to lead the sailors to become familiar with this submarine?" Wei Jichen said. Said someone worried.

"Annihilate the Russian fleet!" Yang Yonglin was shocked by Wei Jichen's bold words, but when he saw Wei Jichen nodded heavily, he immediately calmed down.

"As long as you do it without anyone noticing, who would have thought that it was us who did it!" Wei Jichen said calmly with a cold light in his eyes.

Yang Yonglin's heart skipped a beat, and after pondering for a moment, Fang slowly said: "Although many of the equipment in the submarine are the same as those on other ships, there are some differences after all. So, please give me Shuai Wei a month, and in a month Inside, my subordinates must take the sailors to get acquainted with this submarine.”

"To be on the safe side, I'm going to send three submarines to act together." Wei Jichen added.

Submarines require very few manpower. There are only more than twenty people on board a submarine. The sailors do not have to worry about it, but the outstanding captain is the one to worry about.

Yang Yonglin understood what Wei Jichen meant, thought for a while and said: "He Pinzhang, the former chief mate of the Zhenyuan ship, and I are sworn friends. Now that he has been dismissed from his post and is at home, as long as I write a letter, I believe he will respond. As for there is another A ship must be both trustworthy and capable, and I really can’t think of it at the moment.”

Wei Jichen frowned. In his first attack, he wanted to let go of any factor that could increase the victory. It was not difficult to delay it for a month. He just had to discuss it with Liu Buchan and find some excuses, but there was still a captain to go. Where to find it?

Yang Yonglin himself trusted him after observing him for a long time. Since He Pinzhang and Yang Yonglin dared to introduce him to him, he must be someone he can trust.

Otherwise, I'll do it myself, this idea suddenly came to Wei Jichen's mind.

Before, he was not prepared to buy three submarines at once, so he was slightly unprepared. In the training base, personal training included land warfare training, forest warfare, desert warfare, urban offensive and defensive warfare, and there was also naval warfare training. , although I usually don’t pay attention to it and only took a quick glance, but I also discovered that there was a submarine battle inside.

In one month, I choose a time ratio of 1:5. I spend 6 to 12 hours of actual time in submarine warfare every day, and 30 to 60 hours of virtual time. Isn’t one month of actual combat training enough to familiarize myself with the inside of a submarine? Do you command operations inside and outside?

It's done, let's do it.

Although choosing a time ratio of 1:5 will cost more than 200 prestige points per hour, more than 1,000 prestige points per day, and 40,000 to 50,000 prestige points per month, after thinking about it, I will be able to command submarine operations to gain A huge victory, definitely worth it.
