"Chief of Staff, I will say hello to the cabinet and the Ministry of Defense. Starting next year, the military expenditure will begin to be tilted towards the Navy. The Navy will build warships on a large scale to cultivate more talents. The General Staff will pay attention to coordinating the army and navy.
The relationship between them can compete, but they cannot form deep hatreds with the Japanese army and navy!" Wang Yuze said. This is what he feared the most. The army and navy are undoubtedly the cornerstone of the empire. If they destroy each other like the Japanese army and navy,
That would be a big trouble. The specific situation is now, the military expenditure is only so much. If the navy is expanded, the army's military expenditure will inevitably be compressed. The army has millions of troops, so the military expenditure required is too much
More.
"Your Majesty, the army is now undergoing a replacement, and there is too much military expenditure to use. If it is compressed, it may affect the progress of the dress-up!" Xiong Wu said in a dilemma. The total military expenditure last year was only 12,000 yuan.
Among them, the army accounts for 70% and the navy accounts for only 30%. However, because of the navy's large-scale shipbuilding, Wang Yuze had to allocate 100 million yuan in the war compensation paid by Japan.
Otherwise, it would not be able to support the navy's huge shipbuilding plan.
"Let's do this! The army and the navy each account for half of the military expenditure next year. The shortage will be paid for the war compensation contributed by the Japanese. However, everyone should pay attention that there is not much war compensation!" Wang Yuze reminded.
Although the Japanese compensated 200 million pounds, they were using money everywhere, which was really not enough to spend! Fortunately, the Japanese contributed, otherwise it would be difficult for the Chinese team to develop rapidly. However,
After using this money, I'm afraid I'll have to live a hard life.
"Yes, the emperor!" Xiong Wu said.
Since last year, the Chinese Army has started to change its clothes, mainly replacing rifles. The rifles used before were imitated by German rifles, 7.92mm caliber rifles. This rifle has too much recoil and is not suitable for the physique of Orientals.
If it is used for too long, it will cause certain damage and affect the performance of soldiers. Therefore, the Army Department proposed to replace a suitable rifle for the entire army.
According to the requirements of the Army Department, the arsenal designed a rifle, named the Type 96 rifle. The Type 96 rifle is 1276 mm in length, the barrel is 797 mm in length, the total weight is 4 kg, the diameter is 6.5 mm, and the ammunition is 6.5×55 mm pointed warhead.
The muzzle velocity is 800 meters in seconds, the effective range is 1,000 meters, the ammunition supply method is five round magazines, and the built-in ammunition compartment is. This rifle is very suitable for oriental soldiers because it abandons the original round-headed style
The rifle bullet adopts a new type of pointed bullet, making it more powerful.
At the same time, in order to increase the firepower of the infantry squad, the arsenal specially studied a light machine gun named the Type 96 light machine gun. The Type 96 light machine gun has a length of 1161 mm, a weight of 9.6 kg, a barrel length of 672 mm, and an automatic method is air guide
Type, the initial velocity of the bullet is 850 meters per second, the range of the watch scale is 1500 meters, the rate of fire is 300 rounds per minute, the ammunition is 20 rounds, and the ammunition is used with 6.5×55 mm ammunition, which can be used for ammunition of the Type 96 rifle. 96
The equipment of the light machine gun will make the Chinese Army more powerful, and at the same time, the unified ammunition caliber can also reduce the logistical pressure. I believe that when the war breaks out again, the Japanese Army will be greatly shocked.
"By the way, the 'Chinese-class' battleship is about to be completed. Is there any evidence on the next level of the battleship research institute?" Wang Yuze asked. In order to further strengthen the strength of the navy, the follow-up of the "Chinese-class" battleship
Improved battleships must be built early, and they will strive to catch up with the war two years later. Wang Yuze had a premonition that the Sino-Japanese War two years later will be a life-and-death battle, and there will be only one between China and Japan.
Only a country can survive. During this period, countries such as Britain, France, the United States, and Russia that cannot tolerate China's rise are also likely to participate, which is a huge test for China. Therefore, the navy must build more and more
A big battleship can do it.
"Your Majesty, I heard from Minister Zhang that the next level of battleship is the "Qin-class" battleship. There is not much difference in firepower compared to the "Chinese-class", but the speed and armor will be more powerful.
The design is still under intense pressure, and it is expected that the design will not be completed until the end of the year! For specific situations, you have to ask Minister Zhang!" Xiong Wu said.
"Well! I understand!" Wang Yuze said. The four dual main guns of the "Chinese-class" battleship are already very powerful. If you want to deploy more main guns, it will affect the performance of the battleship in other aspects.
Wang Yuze once thought about deploying a triple-mounted main gun, but not to mention China, no country in the world has developed a triple-mounted main gun. In Wang Yuze's memory, it seems that the Austro-Hungarian Empire was a few years later.
The "United Force" class battleship is still the Italian "Dante" battleship, which has only begun to use the triple-mounted main gun. Although Wang Yuze has made a request, the naval artillery field is still researching and wanting to equip the triple-mounted main gun.
It may take several years for the main gun. In addition, although the 305mm caliber naval gun is powerful enough, Wang Yuze still hopes to be equipped with a larger caliber naval gun, but China
The strength of the German Navy was still unable to reach, and he could only continue to use 305mm caliber naval guns. You should know that even the German Navy used 380mm caliber naval guns on the "Bavarian-class" battleship more than ten years later, while the British
The Navy also started to use the 343mm caliber gun when it started to build the "Orion-class" battleship in 1909. Perhaps, because China was the first to build the "Chinese-class" battleship, the influence of the landmark battleship, would make the battleship ships
The history of development has accelerated for several years, but there is no doubt that the Chinese Navy is still honestly using the 305mm naval gun with mature technology.
"Are there any other questions? If not, let's go here!" Wang Yuze said. He had already thought about it. Before the end of the year, he would take time to go to the Battleship Design Institute in Dagu, Tianjin to take a look at the "Qin-level" specific
"The design progress of the battleship is to strive to enable this more powerful battleship to be put into service as soon as possible.
"Emperor, Hawaii calls, and now the entire Hawaii is under our control. However, there are too few Chinese in Hawaii, only tens of thousands of people. And there are more than 30,000 Japanese, which will seriously affect us
The local rule. Brigadier General Huang Zhiming proposed whether the Japanese could be expelled from Hawaii!" Xiong Wu said.
"As they mean it! Tell Queen Liliukarani and drive away all the Japanese in Hawaii! However, you have to give a reason to be able to pass!" Wang Yuze said.
"Yes, the emperor! I will leave!" Xiong Wu and Wu Tingfang said goodbye and left. However, they were both feeling a little heavy. After learning about Wang Yuze's strategic intentions, they all felt huge pressure.
If you win, China can certainly soar to the sky, but if you fail, you may be interrupted in China's rise.
"Chief of Staff, tell me the truth. Is it possible for the emperor's strategic intention to be realized?" After leaving the palace, Wu Tingfang grabbed Xiong Wu and asked. He still felt that Wang Yuze's approach was too crazy.
"Please rest assured, Lord Wu, we are very sure that we will win in the navy. As for the army, you can rest assured that even if the navy is defeated, the army will be enough to ensure our national security!" Xiong Wu said with great affirmation.
"That's good, then I'll be relieved!" Wu Tingfang finally felt completely relieved.
On the morning of Hawaiian time, on the morning of the 19th, Brigadier General Huang Zhiming, the commander of the Hawaiian base, received a telegram from the General Staff. The content of the telegram was very simple, which was to agree to them to take action to expel the Japanese on the Hawaiian island.
"Come here, go and invite Commander Peng to me immediately!" Huang Zhiming said excitedly.
"Yes, commander!" The guards rushed to inform him immediately. Brigade Commander Peng, the commander of the 3rd Brigade of the Chinese Marine Corps, and Brigadier General Peng Jian and Brigadier General. The main defenses of Oahu and Kauai Island will be temporarily ranked as Marine Corps.
The Third Brigade will be in charge. In the future, the Hawaii base will specially establish a defensive force that has been on the base, responsible for the operation of the port's existing shore defense facilities. The Third Marine Brigade will become a special offensive force. However, Huang Zhiming's plan is still
The third brigade needs cooperation.
In less than half an hour, Peng Jian and Brigadier General rushed to Huang Zhiming's office in Pearl Harbor.
"Commander Huang! Peng Jiantong reported!" Peng Jiantong greeted. Although the two had the same military ranks, Huang Zhiming, as the commander of the Hawaii base, had a higher status.
"Braft Commander Peng, please come in!" Huang Zhiming quickly invited Peng Jiantong into the office.
"I wonder if Commander Huang asked me to come, is there anything wrong?" Peng Jiantong asked straight to the point.
"That's right, Brigade Commander Peng. General Staff has agreed to my plan, so the cooperation of the Third Brigade needs to be carried out!" Huang Zhiming said.
"Oh? Well, if you have any requests, Commander Huang, just give orders!" Peng Jiantong said. He also knew that Huang Zhiming planned to expel all 30,000 Japanese in Hawaii. He had no objection to this. Since the General Secretary said that he had no opinion.
If he already agreed, he would just execute the order. Anyway, he had no good feelings for these Japanese people. If he drove away the Japanese, the Chinese could also be assigned to more land plantations and other things.
"Okay! Brigade Commander Peng asked the troops of the Third Brigade to prepare and start the action tonight!" Huang Zhiming said excitedly.
That night, at 1 a.m., a huge explosion occurred in Pearl Harbor. A transport ship of the Chinese Navy was blown out of a big hole, and a Japanese body was left on the dock.
