Electric rock battery

Dianyan fort was one of the 13 built by Qing army along the coast of Lushunkou. Most of the cannons and shells were purchased from German Krupp factory, except a few of them were made by Chinese military factories. At that time, China was unable to build, but when Li Hongzhang repaired lushungang port and fort, he hired a group of foreign craftsmen headed by German engineer Hanneken, who had additional conditions when he hired. That is, not only technically speaking, Hanneken has the final say, but also the machine and raw materials should be purchased from abroad. In the world, the earliest people who invented gunpowder should buy artillery in foreign countries. And cannonballs to protect ourselves, and our own gunpowder can only be released in the 60th birthday celebration of Empress Dowager Cixi's brilliant fireworks to win bursts of cheers.

Electric rock battery

Dianyan fort is located at the south foot of Huangjinshan, Lushunkou District, Dalian city. It is adjacent to Huangjinshan in the north, Yellow Sea in the South and Lushun military port in the West. It is one of the 13 sea defense lines built by the Qing government in Lushun in the late Qing Dynasty. It is also the most complete Fort preserved so far. The position is superior, the front of the whole fort is cliff and sea, behind there is a gully separated from the golden mountain. Using the gun mirror at that time to observe from the sea will produce the illusion that it is at the same point as the golden mountain, so it has great concealment. From the sea, a little closer, the shell would fall to the bottom of the cliff, and a little farther, it would fall to the valley behind. It was very difficult to hit the coastal artillery position with a width of only 50 meters, so the military experts at that time called the fort "100 shots missed".

brief introduction

After the Russian army occupied Lushunkou, this 50 meter wide and 200 meter long Fort position attracted the favor of the Russian army. Because of the vast Yellow Sea in front of it, the fort position can guard the Lushunkou military port. The west side is the entrance of the Lushunkou military port, and the east side is the old sow reef fort, backed by the golden mountain. When the Russian army planned the coastal defense map of Lushunkou, it was called "No.15" fort, On the "No.15" fort, there is an artillery company (called company commander), on which there are five 1895 254 mm coastal guns, one 57 mm gun and two searchlights. Because these two searchlights have large caliber and long range, they can radiate all targets within one kilometer range at night. The searchlights use the power source as electricity, and they are also set up on the rocks by the sea, so they are called "Electric Rock Fort".

Dianyan fort was one of the 13 built by Qing army along the coast of Lushunkou. Most of the cannons and shells were purchased from German Krupp factory, except a few of them were made by Chinese military factories. At that time, China was unable to build, but when Li Hongzhang repaired lushungang port and fort, he hired a group of foreign craftsmen headed by German engineer Hanneken, who had additional conditions when he hired. That is, not only technically speaking, Hanneken has the final say, but also the machine and raw materials should be purchased from abroad. In the world, the earliest people who invented gunpowder should buy artillery in foreign countries. And artillery shells to protect ourselves, and our own gunpowder can only be released in the 60th birthday celebration of Empress Dowager Cixi's brilliant fireworks to win bursts of cheers, which is really ironic and sad!

fire

At that time, the coastal artillery on the dianyan fort was relatively advanced, with a long effective range of more than 9000 meters, and five heavy guns could fire at the same time, with an average of once every five minutes. After improvement, the Russian artillery extended the fire range to 13 meters, The firing time of the five heavy guns was also very early, and they could fire at the same time in about one minute. The officers and soldiers of the battery also built an underground corridor between the battery and the battery, which was 1.85 meters wide and 2.1 meters high, connecting the battery, so that the personnel could support each other. In order to save the artillery's physical strength, they also built six underground ammunition depots, each 8.5 meters long, 3.7 meters wide and 2.6 meters high And a ranging command post was set up on the position. In the Russo Japanese War, these guns blocked the sea and defended the military port of Lushunkou. In the battle, they dealt a devastating blow to the Japanese army.

A hundred hair is not in the middle

Then why is it called "100 hair not hit"? The main reason is that its location is quite superior. You can see that there is a cliff in front of the whole fort, and there is a gully behind the sea separated from the golden mountain. Using the gun mirror at that time to observe from the sea will produce the illusion that it is at the same point as the golden mountain, so it has great concealment. From the sea, a little closer, the shell would fall to the bottom of the cliff, and a little farther, it would fall to the valley behind. It was very difficult to hit this coastal artillery position with a width of only 50 meters. Therefore, the military experts at that time called this fort "100 shots missed". The artillery we see now were left by the Soviet Red Army garrison brigade.

On the west side of the fort, there is a ho shaped concave fort. The inner diameter of the fort is 4.9 meters, and the diameter of the middle of the fort is only 0.5 meters. That is the place called the strange circle. When a person walks into a strange circle, stands on the footprints painted in red lacquer, facing the distant Lushunkou without any shelter, stands up and shouts "hum, ah, kouniu" of Tibetan Buddhism, not only can he feel his voice especially loud, as if he had installed a loudspeaker, it is said that he can also get rid of all kinds of diseases.

Dianyan fort is located in the east of Lushunkou military port, which has become a witness of the vicissitudes of Lushunkou military port. Makarov, commander of Russian Pacific sub fleet in Lushunkou, led a group of officers to go out to sea. At the foot of dianyan, they touched the mines arranged by the Japanese army. When the warship slowly sank into the water, people saw the tail of the huge warship high up. In two minutes, Makarov and 620 Russian sailors, 2 Seven officers, together with the famous Russian painter vileshagin, who came to experience life on the ship, were buried at the bottom of the sea.
