Chapter 507: London Naval Limits and Treaties

In the public hall, Li Ningyu would naturally not behave too much with Helena, so after conquering Helena, Li Ningyu took the initiative to withdraw from the battle. With thick lips leaving, Queen Helena had

She had some time to breathe, but she still couldn't help but lick her red lips, which meant she still had unfinished thoughts.

This made the discerning Li Ningyu's heart beat a lot faster. But after spending some time with Helena, Li Ningyu's determination also grew a lot, and he would no longer be teased by the queen for a while.

, he immediately raised his gun and surrendered.

Speaking of the story with Helena, there have been many stories about it, so after Li Ningyu got up, he walked towards Sarah and Louis. After getting closer, Li Ningyu suddenly opened his mouth and asked: "What were you talking about just now?"

What?".

These ordinary words shocked Sarah and Lewis, which made Li Ningyu very surprised. Although he heard what they said just now clearly, he didn't think there was anything strange about it, and his face turned red.

Sarah, who was so full, wanted to find a hole to crawl into, but after hesitating for a while, Sarah reacted quickly and said to Li Ningyu: "Li Ningyu, you are so annoying. You did something so outrageous in public just now."

Regarding the matter, didn’t you say yesterday that there were many things to deal with? Don’t go yet!”

Facing Sarah's strange expression, Li Ningyu felt that he was asking for trouble, but it made him confused. He thought about asking Louis alone at night, so he glared at Sarah and said: "

Don't be naughty, or I'll have you thrown out of the plane!".

"Hmph, Li Ningyu, how dare you!" Sarah seemed to have forgotten what happened in the blink of an eye, and was directly stimulated by Li Ningyu's hands on her hips, which made her stunned.

This made Li Ningyu, who had succeeded in playing tricks, return to his seat with a smile in a good mood. He took out a stack of thick documents from the briefcase beside him and read them carefully. Sarah, Louis, and Helena,

Not far away, she was muttering softly, but it seemed that Sarah was unlucky today, because Li Ningyu could hear Sarah making a whirring sound from time to time.

A thick stack of documents was held in Li Ningyu's hand. After flipping through a few pages, Li Ningyu's signature appeared on it.

This is the "London Naval Limitation Treaty" he signed in London. According to the various terms of this contract, countries will strictly control the number and tonnage of battleship construction in the future. But Li Ningyu knows that this military limitation treaty does not prohibit the conclusion of a treaty.

Strength, build a maritime hegemonic aircraft carrier.

Nowadays, many people in the navies of various countries are still clinging to old ideas and regard heavy artillery giant ships as the winning weapon in naval battles and the main combat force of the navy. However, aircraft carriers are not taken seriously by other countries at all. From the Berlin Seventeenth

At the beginning of the conference period, the Far East Navy's three first-generation aircraft carriers had begun construction.

According to Li Ningyu's requirements, the first batch of aircraft carriers adopt fully enclosed hangars, integrated island superstructures, and powerful flight decks. Although after signing the naval restriction contract, the major naval powers have now slowed down their

The navy is developing at a rapid pace, but Li Ningyu knows that there will be a new round of arms race in a few years.

When the time comes, the appearance of the Far East Navy's aircraft carrier battle group will surely blind the eyes of all countries. In Li Ningyu's understanding, an aircraft carrier is a floating airport on the sea, used to carry fighter jets and bombers away from fixed land, and is mainly used to attack enemy targets.

tasks, and can also perform reconnaissance and defense.

Aircraft carriers can not only attack land and sea targets from the air, especially those attack targets that are far beyond the normal range. The radius of fighter jets taking off from the aircraft carrier is very important, and it is also an important part of the navy's combat theory that has been constantly changing. The enemy

The fleet can engage in long-distance combat without seeing its own ships. This is the aircraft carrier, which completely puts an end to the battleship and is one of the main advantages of the new strongest warship on the sea.

Li Ningyu vaguely remembered that the first achievement of an aircraft carrier in the war should be on November 11, 1940. At that time, the British Navy's "Glorious" aircraft carrier dispatched a torpedo bomber formation to launch an attack on the Italian Navy.

One ship was sunk and three Italian Navy battleships were damaged in the port of Rento. This battle made other maritime military powers aware of the advent of the aircraft carrier era.

Therefore, in World War II, the aircraft carrier battle group played a decisive role in the entire Pacific War battlefield, including the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, the Battle of Midway, etc.

Since then, aircraft carrier battle groups have replaced ironclad battleships and become the main force of the new generation of ocean-going naval fleets. Especially the U.S. authorities subsequently built a large number of aircraft carriers, and finally formed a huge aircraft carrier formation, becoming a new generation of maritime protagonists.

Of course, Li Ningyu is also well aware of the weaknesses of the aircraft carrier battle group. First of all, the target of the aircraft carrier is large and it is easy to be discovered by the enemy, because the entire aircraft carrier group will have at least seven or eight ships of various types, and sometimes it will be as high as

There are more than ten ships. Due to the extensive use of technology, there are more and more electronic components on the aircraft carrier, resulting in more radar reflectors. The audio signal characteristics are very obvious and can be easily detected by the opponent's detection facilities.

Often after being discovered, the entire aircraft carrier formation has to face frequent enemy harassment and attacks from multiple directions and in multiple batches, and is sometimes exhausted from all kinds of responses.

The second is huge logistics. An aircraft carrier needs to carry a large amount of fuel and ammunition. In addition to its own fuel consumption, food consumption, and ammunition consumption, an aircraft carrier battle group requires a very large amount of supplies. At the same time, when replenishing at sea, carrier-based aircraft generally

Stop taking off and landing, so the chance of a surprise attack is increased.

Then there are loopholes in the air defense network. The aircraft carrier has a small self-defense capability and needs to rely on other accompanying ships for assistance. Once these "bodyguards" are destroyed, the aircraft carrier's Achilles' heel will appear. Finally, the flight deck is easily destroyed.

Once it appears, the offensive and defensive effectiveness of an aircraft carrier will be greatly reduced. At this time, the enemy will definitely pursue it. At that time, the aircraft carrier will be continuously attacked by the enemy, causing heavy damage, until it is sunk into the sea.

Under many adverse conditions, why did Li Ningyu still choose to continue building an aircraft carrier battle group?

Because he has no choice at this time. The signing of the London Naval Limitation Treaty has restricted the development of the Far East Navy. Therefore, building multiple aircraft carrier battle groups is the only way for the Far East Corps to not lag behind other countries. However, in a country that does not pay attention to

In the era of aircraft carriers, the Far East Legion's aircraft carrier battle group should be able to play a blockbuster role. By the time all countries react, the Far East Navy will probably be ahead of other countries.
