Chapter 25 Fleet Travel

For Anubis and other gods, whether to sign the Styx Oath with Chen Mo is a very difficult decision to make, and it will naturally take a long time to discuss.

It did not take much time for Anubis and other gods to discuss whether to cooperate with him before. After all, this was their purpose, but the cooperation method proposed by Chen Mo was somewhat different from the cooperation they expected.

differences, they can quickly draw conclusions.

For gods with immortal lives, they have a long life and time to think about how to deal with a matter, and use the power of the gods to deduce various possibilities for the future development of this matter.

In addition, it takes a lot of time to unify opinions among multiple gods, so even if Chen Mo has completed the debugging of the city-level resurrection array, the navy is ready to go, and Anu

Bisi did not give Chen Mo a reply.

Of course, it was impossible for Chen Mo to stay in Egypt and wait for Anubis' reply. After the navy was ready, he took a warship and started his trip to China.

However, this journey was quite satisfactory. The two warships departed from Alexandria, passed through the Suez Canal, passed through the Red Sea and crossed the Arabian Sea before arriving in Mumbai, India.

At this time, Bombay was still a British colony. With the greetings from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in advance and the good relationship between Britain and Egypt, Chen Mo received a grand reception here that was consistent with his status as the head of a country.

The fleet did not stay too long in Mumbai. After completing its supplies, it continued south, bypassing the southernmost tip of the Indian Peninsula, then crossed the Bay of Bengal, passed through the Strait of Malacca and entered the South China Sea.

Originally, Chen Mo was quite interested in the Maldives, which was under the control of the British at this time, but he only considered that the Maldives at this time had not been developed and was just a bunch of primitive islands.

Moreover, except for the vampire maid who was transformed from a mermaid, he only had Jack with him on this trip. There were no beautiful women to see on the beach, so he gave up the idea.

After crossing the South China Sea, Chen Mo did not go to China immediately. Instead, he arrived in Japan first as planned.

Japan also attaches great importance to Chen Mo's visit. After all, the Great Depression era has not completely passed. For Japan, the purchase of warships from Japan proposed by Chen Mo is very important.

It can even be said that if we can get the order for a battleship that Chen Mo said, it would be very helpful to alleviate the Great Depression in Japan at this time.

Therefore, the Japanese, under the pressure of their country having just recovered from the post-disaster reconstruction of the Great Kanto Earthquake, prepared a very high-standard reception to welcome Chen Mo's arrival.

In order to win the order mentioned by Chen Mo, the Japanese Navy gathered all eight warships of Nagato, Mutsu, Kongo, Hiei, Haruna, Kirishima, Akagi, and Kaga in Tokyo and staged a grand ship parade.

The purpose is to make Chen Mo feel the power of the Japanese navy and purchase warships from Japan.

In addition, in order to increase their persuasiveness, they also specially asked the retired Japanese shipbuilding god Hiraga Joe and the shipbuilding genius Fujimoto Kikuo who had not died due to the Tomotsuru incident to jointly receive Chen Mo, and share their proud achievements.

All the drawings made were laid out.

Chen Mo was naturally very happy about Japan's thoughtful move of putting his family's wealth in front of him.

On the surface, he showed great love for these warships of the Japanese Navy. He went to visit each warship in person. He also had enthusiastic talks with Hiraga Joe and Fujimoto Kikuo, and even attended a welcome banquet hosted by the Japanese.

Expressing an order for an additional battleship, a total of two battleships were ordered, making the Japanese more eager to devote themselves to this matter.

And secretly, he left magic marks on every warship he boarded.

Although he only plans to engage in a military operation this time, this does not mean that Chen Mo will let these warships go.

The purpose of leaving the magic mark is to make it easier to acquire these warships in the future.

Regarding Joe Hiraga and Kikuo Fujimoto, Chen Mo did not want to kill these two talented ship designers, but he also did not want to leave them to Japan.

Although Kikuo Fujimoto would later die of cerebral hemorrhage due to the Tomotsuru Incident, Joe Hiraga presided over the design of the Yamato. Chen Mo would not let go of this largest battleship built in human history no matter what.

Moreover, it would be too wasteful to kill these two ship designers like this. Wouldn't it be good to transform them into undead and bring them back to serve themselves?

As for the plan to order warships mentioned by Chen Mo, this is certainly not a lie.

Although Egypt's domestic shipbuilding capacity is not lacking, at most it can only build small boats such as frigates and destroyers.

If it wants to build large warships, Egypt does not yet have the industrial strength and shipbuilding experience.

Therefore, in order to cope with the future World War II and strengthen national defense construction at the same time, purchasing is the most appropriate solution at the moment.

At this time, the only countries in the world capable of building large warships, apart from Britain and the United States, were Japan, Germany, France and Italy.

Among them, the United Kingdom, as an established power, undoubtedly has excellent technology, and the United States, as an emerging industrial power, naturally has no concessions.

It is precisely for this reason that Chen Mo ordered two aircraft carriers from the United Kingdom.

In addition to the two aircraft carriers, he does have the idea of ​​acquiring two more battleships.

But for these two battleships, he has not yet decided whether to order them from Japan or the United States.

During this period, the quality of Japanese single ships was slightly better than that of the United States. After all, the Americans were not very good at building battleships.

Therefore, Chen Mo did not say die to the Japanese, but said that he had to think more about it, and after getting the Amagi-level blueprints from the Japanese, he ended his visit to Japan.

The fleet left Japan and sailed to China, while the warships assembled by the Japanese also returned to their naval ports.

Among them, Nagato and Mutsu returned to the Hashishima anchorage established in Hiroshima and did not go the same way as other ships.

Under the escort of some accompanying ships, the two most precious battleships of the Japanese Navy set off from Tokyo and prepared to return to their anchorage.

But not long after they sailed out of Tokyo Bay, thick sea fog filled the sea after dark, so the two giant ships had to slow down and turn on their searchlights to avoid being caught in the night sailing in the thick fog.

And a collision occurs.

At the same time, under the sea, a huge shadow was stretching its huge body.
