If you want to deceive a knowledgeable and knowledgeable boss like Chen Shaokuan, just opening your mouth will not work. Zhu Bin has already realized this. Sending two warships is just an appetizer. What really makes the minister tempted is that he does not hesitate to deign to do it.

What makes him, a small major, so busy is the glorious naval future that Zhu Bin describes for him!

Chen Shaokuan had many grand ideas for the Chinese Navy. In the Navy's six-year shipbuilding plan in 1930, he proposed to build one aircraft carrier, two armored cruisers, two cruisers, 28 destroyers, and 24 submarines.

In addition to other gunboats, torpedo boats, minesweepers, submarine carriers, transport ships, etc., the construction plan for a total of 106 ships looks good and powerful, but in fact, considering the financial situation of the government and the poor naval expenses, this is just a plan.

Field bubble.

After two years of hard work, Chen Shaokuan was about to give up. Zhu Bin jumped out at the critical moment and took action to resolve the issue of aircraft carriers and a battleship. Then he came up with a fleet construction plan that seemed very feasible and asked Minister Chen to

I suddenly felt like a close friend, especially since this guy was pouring real money into me!

The plan given by Zhu Bin was even bigger. Not only was it at least twice as big as Chen Shaokuan's, the overall battleship's performance indicators, equipment, firepower, tonnage, and speed were all surpassed.

Compare the two so-called light cruisers "Ninghai" currently under construction in Japan and "Pinghai" which is assembled by Jiangnan Shipyard with parts bought from Japan. The one with a displacement of only 2,500 tons and a power of 10,000 horsepower is not the highest.

With a pitiful speed of 23 knots, one inch of armor, and six Japanese-style 140mm main guns, it feels awkward no matter how you look at it. In other words, it is just about right compared to Japan's old so-called light cruisers of one or two thousand tons, and compared with the newer ones.

Compared with destroyers, whether it is Japan's "Fubuki-class" with three twin-mounted 127mm guns and a terrifying speed of 38 knots, or the American "Farragut" destroyer that will start construction this year with a displacement of only 1,500 tons and five 127mm guns.

With guns, or a speed of 35 knots, these two ships can only be beaten.

Compared with the 2,000-ton and 4,000-ton large destroyers painted by Zhu Bin, they are even worse. Chen Shaokuan has never even heard of many advanced weapons and equipment and modules, but this does not prevent him from understanding and understanding its powerful performance.

, and Zhu Bin vowed that these ships will be built within five years. If you don’t believe it? Watch the action.

In less than four months from February to today, Chen Shaokuan watched Zhu Bin conjuring up a bunch of equipment bit by bit, which he had never thought of or could not do before. Except for two giant ships

, the Jiangnan Research Institute stopped ten "Yong" submarine gunboats, and then mobilized the equipment and workers of the "Pinghai" whose spare parts supply was cut off by Japan. They first made a surprise attack to build several armed landing craft for him, each of which was a transport ship with a displacement of 20 tons.

A total of six new slipways have been assigned tasks, including 500-ton large landing craft, 1,500-ton destroyers and tank landing craft, 2,500-ton destroyers, and 10,000-ton landing craft.

Class multifunctional supply ships and hospital ships, etc.

Nominally, these ships are intended for global defense companies' own use and to be introduced to the world market, but Chen Shaokuan knows that none of them are without the Ministry of Navy. The so-called first-come-first-serve building near the water, brand-new maritime ship equipment,

Brand-new naval combat concepts will be obtained first by the Chinese Navy. This alone is priceless.

Nowadays, in addition to the "Jiang Falcon" class amphibious aircraft under construction, the "Jiang Feng" and "Jiang He" improved training patrol aircraft, the x211 high-speed fighter, and the "HD-1" transport aircraft agreed with Daglas Company

, amphibious combat vehicles in the design stage, and a series of other equipment indicate that the navy will undergo earth-shaking changes in the next one or two years! Even if it cannot be fought out, at least the overall defense strength will be doubled!

If a brand new fleet can be built on this basis, perhaps the appearance of the entire Chinese Navy will change drastically! A new pattern will be quickly opened, and the days of being stretched will be gone forever!

The series of cooperation projects that Zhu Bin negotiated with the United States in "Global Communication" will definitely have a huge impact and improve China's industrial manufacturing capabilities. Domestic industrial manufacturing capabilities will also increase several times, with fewer constraints, and the benefits will be huge.

Immeasurable! All kinds of amazing achievements have once again inspired Chen Shaokuan's long-lost ambition. Now I heard that someone from Zhu released a huge satellite and built a 35,000-ton battleship within five years?! Is it possible?

Zhu Bin was not joking and nodded decisively: "It will definitely be possible! Most of the technical problems have actually been solved, and the remaining industrial manufacturing capacity will be ready in less than three years. This series of measures in the first half of the year is just the beginning. After July, you will see

Until there is another industrial construction boom! By then, I’m afraid Jiangnan Institute and Haifa Institute will be far too busy!”

Chen Shaokuan patted the thick gun barrel of the battleship model and laughed: "It's better to be too busy! If that's the case, even if you have to fight for your wealth, I will fight for Zhoushan Shipbuilding and the port for you. Even Qingdao Shen Honglie's side, I will

Come forward to persuade you to develop the base. However, during this period, you must put on a good show to show to the government and the Chairman, otherwise it will be very difficult to achieve your goal!"

Chen Shaokuan said that it was Zhu Bin who started planning to bring the volunteers into the Navy, establish a directly affiliated naval special force, and become a powerful man with a lot of ambitions. Although he did not say it clearly, Chen Shaokuan's rise and fall in officialdom over the past few decades can be seen at a glance.

He saw through it!

Everyone knows that Zhu Bin has ambitions. He wants to open up his own world in the navy, leaving behind the Huangpu Army, which has many factions and strict barriers. Chen Shaokuan knew about it first, and then Chairman Chiang, who was most sensitive to military power, also figured it out. I think.

Want to own a team reasonably and legally? Today’s situation is not that difficult!

In particular, Chiang Kai-shek was putting all his efforts into preparing the naval force under his direct control, and was sitting back and watching as shameless politicians below Wang Zhaoming and some unscrupulous literati in Shanghai unscrupulously slandered and attacked the Navy Ministry, purely for the purpose of borrowing a knife to kill people. Zhu Bin's attitude was ambiguous and refused to surrender directly.

The chairman of the committee was mixed up with Chen Shaokuan, a "lone man" and a "perfect man". Chiang Kai-shek would never let him succeed easily. In this regard, Chen Shaokuan could only barely resist the pressure of entering the mountains.

Zhu Bin scratched his forehead and sighed softly: "Why is it so difficult to do something serious! I have spent tens of millions of dollars on it, am I not sincere enough?"

Chen Shaokuan shook his head, smiled and said nothing more. What did you do for ten million dollars?

If it were given directly to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, even a powerful lieutenant colonel in the navy would not be able to escape. As long as he waved his hand, he would go to the Central Army Military Academy to be gilded, and when he came out, he would at least become a regimental commander and a brigade commander, and in two years he would be promoted to division commander.

It's not a difficult task. But now, even if you send money again, it's hard to say what the result will be. It seems that no one who is cared about by the Chairman will be able to get what they want.

Rolling his eyes, Zhu Bin slapped his thigh: "Hey! In that case, I don't have to be polite. Aren't you just afraid that I won't be able to control you if I'm not your direct descendant? I'm going to force you to think of ways to win over and control me!"

Chen Shaokuan narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at him meaningfully. He continued to play with the battleship model as if he didn't hear anything, and an irrepressible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Two days later, when Zhu Bin accompanied Chen Shaokuan to Zhoushan to inspect the training base and returned, Chief Engineer Wang Zhu, who had resigned from China Airlines and joined the aircraft manufacturing department of the Marine Equipment Institute, rushed over to announce the good news - the x211 test machine had been assembled.

Got it!

"So fast?!" Not only Chen Shaokuan was surprised, but Zhu Bin himself was also a little unbelievable. These guys were moving too fast, right? There were a lot of jobs that were not completed a few days ago.

Wang Assistant shook his head and sighed: "Your design and preparation work are so detailed that we can no longer think about it. We are just following the drawings and doing the work of assembly workers. If it were not for those students to try to understand every detail, we could be more

quick!"

"Okay! Let's take a look!" Chen Shaokuan put down the model excitedly. This is the first advanced carrier-based fighter aircraft used in the navy. Of course he wanted to witness its birth with his own eyes!
Chapter completed!
