Xia Bohai said: "The opponents of this naval battle are indeed much stronger than the Japanese fleet I encountered yesterday. Of course, they have to use missiles. Otherwise, we will be ruined in a few years. However, good steel needs to be used on the blade. How to use missiles, how to use warship artillery, warship missiles, and what kind of missiles are used, they also need to be carefully studied. Moreover, the use of missiles is only a matter of tactical details. Regarding the entire combat arrangement of this battle, the headquarters has already formulated a plan. Let the Chief of Staff explain to everyone. After the Chief of Staff is finished, everyone will speak and add it."

Xiao Jianjun stood up and said, "This battle to attack Dagukou will be a battle of Guanjian for us. Only by winning this battle can we get ashore and gain a foothold. Therefore, we must do our best. This battle will be used to dispatch Kunming ships, Yueyang ships, Sanya ships, Huaihua ships, Xiangyang ships, and Changbaishan ships to participate in the battle, and most of the Marines will also participate in the battle. Departure tonight, the fleet will travel at a speed of 20 knots, about two o'clock in the morning, and arrive at about twenty miles of the Dagukou waters. First, use missiles to attack the two warships, Xisoyi and Russians, because these two ships

The warships are currently the two largest and strongest Eight-Nation Alliance, and they also pose the greatest threat to us. Then each ship advances to about ten kilometers away from Dagukou, and the Kunming, Xiangyang and Huaihua ships bombard the moored warships, Yueyang and Sanya ships pay the responsibility to block the warships that escaped from Dagukou, and cover the Changbaishan ship for landing operations, and use missiles according to the situation, so as to try to wipe out the fleet of the Eight-Nation Alliance before dawn, and capture Dagukou, and then notify other ships to come to Dagukou to join the shore. The above is the plan for this battle. Do you have anything to add?"

Wang Hailong first said: "Chief of Staff, why should we set the combat time to operate 12 tonight? It is only 11 noon now, and we have to wait for 12 or 3 hours. If we set off now and follow the headquarters' combat plan, we can end the battle at five or six o'clock in the afternoon. Maybe we can go ashore to have supper?"

Xiao Jianjun said: "The choice to fight at night is mainly based on three considerations. First, the people on the three passenger ships do not know the fact that we have traveled through time. Only the army knows that if our six warships leave together, it will inevitably cause the people on the three passenger ships to be moved. After the twelve hours of the evening, most of the people have already gone to bed. Even if there are still a few people who are not sleeping, they are hiding in the room to play games and watch movies. No many people will notice the movement of the warships. We will end the battle without knowing it. When we wake up tomorrow morning, the three passenger ships can drive directly to Dagukou to moor, and we can also officially announce the crossing.

Fact; Second, in this era, both the army and the navy have extremely poor night combat capabilities, because although the optical technology of this era has developed to a certain extent, whether it is rifles or artillery, it mainly relies on visual aiming. Our fleet has advanced radar and infrared equipment, and has the ability to fight all-weather. There is no difference between night combat and daytime combat for us. Including Marines, all the soldiers are equipped with night vision equipment. Therefore, during night combat, the entire battlefield is unilaterally transparent to us. It not only helps us win easily, but also can limit the enemy's combat effectiveness to the maximum extent and minimize our losses."

After a pause, Xiao Jianjun then said: "The third aspect is to hide our strength. Although our technological level is far ahead of this era, our fleet can easily defeat any fleet of this era, but we must never easily reveal our background. Before all technology can be converted into productivity, we are also very fragile, because all the shells, missiles, and even guns and bullets are almost no supplementary. Nothing else, if the dozens of missiles we brought are fired, our warships are equivalent to living coffins at sea, and even a battleship cannot be dealt with. If imperialism knows us We know that we have advanced science and technology, and we may work together to seize it. In a few months, we will have no place to die in this era. In this case, we must not only win, but also not overexpose our scientific and technological level, attract the attention of imperialism, and maintain a certain degree of mystery, which is conducive to our power over imperialism, and night combat will be the best choice. In the future, night combat may be our main combat mode. This is not only the lowest cost-effective combat method, but also the best way to protect ourselves."

Before crossing, Xia Bohai's goal was to be a strategist, while Xiao Jianjun was a tactical expert. He was good at using existing weapons to fight various targets. Therefore, overnight, he formulated a combat plan to attack Dagukou based on the current technical conditions and the advantages and shortcomings of the crossing fleet itself. In Xiao Jianjun's view, the biggest advantage of the crossing fleet is not the advanced weapons such as missiles and helicopters, but the advantages of asymmetric combat such as radar, infrared, and night vision instruments. After all, the number of missiles is limited, and helicopters are also limited by aviation kerosene, and the combat efficiency is not high. Radar, infrared, night vision instruments and other equipment can be used much longer, and it is not easy to attract the attention of the great powers. Moreover, when the scale of the army is expanded in the future, these equipment can still play an important role.

After listening to Xiao Jianjun's explanation, the captains had no objection. At this time, the Marine Corps commander Chu Yaping said: "Chief of Staff, the combat plan you mentioned just now is basically the navy's tactics, and there is no detailed tactical plan for landing operations. I don't know if the headquarters has any considerations for landing operations."

Xiao Jianjun bowed his head and said, "Battery Commander Chu, your question is very good. Honestly, I don't have a detailed plan for login combat. We will discuss and study it in detail later. This is also the fourth reason for choosing night combat, which is that we still need time to formulate a login combat plan."

Although the Chinese Navy has always regarded landing operations as a navy's heavy combat mission, its actual goal is to take Taiwan as the imaginary enemy. This is still a land-based landing operation. The two weapons developed are basically around this goal. Far-sea landing operations without land-based landing have always been one of the biggest shortcomings in China's seas. Before the fleet crossed, there were only three Type 071 amphibious dock landing ships suitable for long-sea landing operations. Of course, the current Chinese Navy does not have the need for long-sea landing operations. Building the Type 071 amphibious dock landing ship is more just to maintain a certain long-range troop delivery capability.

However, landing in Dagukou is a long-sea landing battle without land. Although the coastal defense capabilities of this era cannot be compared with those of later generations, they cannot be careless.

Zhang Wei, the captain of the Sanya ship, said: "Chief of Staff, I wonder what the headquarters has to consider about how to use missiles in this battle?"

Xiao Jianjun bowed his head and said: "According to the technical department's division, against ten thousand tons of warships such as the Sissoi and the Russians, the Haihongqi 16 is not very effective. It can only be used with Haihongqi 9 and Eagle Strike 8. We also need to obtain detailed data on using missiles to strike naval ships of this era through this battle, as the basis for future combat."

At this time, Wang Hailong said: "Commander, Chief of Staff, I have some ideas on how to use missiles. Let's discuss it."

Xia Bo Haitou said, "Let's do it." Wang Hailong not only commanded the first naval battle through the fleet, but also used missiles to strike enemy ships, so his ideas naturally should not be underestimated.

Wang Hailong said: "Haihongqi 16 can only be used to deal with ships below 5,000 tons at most. To fight against the Sissoi and the Russian, at least Haihongqi 9 and the Eagle Strike 8 must be used. However, there are still differences between the use of both bodies. Eagle Strike 8 is an anti-ship missile, and the attack method is to fly by sea. The warhead is only semi-armor-breaking. The Sissoi is a battleship with the thickest armor on the side of the side reaches 400 mm, and the thinner one is also about 00 mm. Although it is used forged composite armor instead of surface hardened carburized steel armor, its defense is not visible. I am afraid that it will be difficult for Eagle Strike 8 to penetrate the Sissoi armor, so I think it is best to use the Eagle Strike 8 to attack the Russian. After all, the Russian is an armored cruiser, and the armor is much thinner than the Sissoi."

Shang Jinfeng, the captain of the Kunming ship, said: "So what should I do if the Xisoi? Can I use the Haihongqi 9 to fight? But the Haihongqi 9 is an air defense missile, and the warhead is also more than the Eagle Strike 8, and the warhead is not an armor-breaking type. The Eagle Strike 8 warhead is also a semi-breaking type. The Eagle Strike 8 cannot hit the Xisoi. Can the Haihongqi 9 attack the Xisoi?"

Wang Hailong said, "Precisely because the Haihongqi 9 is an air defense missile, it is possible to use the influx method to hit the weakest deck of the Sisoi armor from the air. Moreover, although the warhead of the Haihongqi 9 is more than the Eagle Strike 8, it is not much different. Even if the warhead is not a armor-breaking type and cannot penetrate the deck, as long as it can explode on the deck, it will be enough to cause a non-killing effect to the Sisoi. In yesterday's battle, our Yueyang ship used the Haihongqi 16 to pour it from the air, and as a result, it sank the Sumo."
