Eight hundred and sixtieth chapters Emeishan class aircraft carrier
"'Imperial level, are the battleships going to be ready to start construction?" Wang Yuze asked in surprise. As the last level battleship of the Imperial Navy, it took two years for the navy's warship design institute to complete the relevant design. There is no doubt that
'Imperial level, the battleship will become the largest and most powerful battleship ever.
"Yes, Your Majesty! The shipyard has completed preparations. Tianjin Shipyard and Beihai Shipyard will each build one. The first ship, "Imperial", is built at Tianjin Shipyard, and the second ship
'The Emperor, the USS was built in the Beihai Shipyard!" said Navy Minister Zhang Cheng. The only thing that made him feel a little regretful was that the Empire-level battleship Wang Yuze only approved the construction plan for two ships. Such a perfect battleship, if more ones can be built
If there are a few ships, Zhang Cheng believes that the Chinese Navy can easily defeat the US Navy and the British Navy without the need to dispatch an aircraft carrier. Of course, the cost of the imperial-level battleship is too high, much more expensive than the aircraft carrier. Wang Yuze promised to build it.
The two ships have already taken into account the navy's sentiment. It is impossible to build four ships at once!
'Imperial level, battleship, standard displacement is 41CCC tons, full load displacement is 49,500 tons, 1995 meters long, 324 meters wide, and draft is 112 meters. The power is 24 new oil-fired boilers and four latest steam turbines, with a power of twelve
Six thousand horsepower, four-axis propulsion, maximum speed is more than 28 knots (the maximum speed in the test run after successful construction ran 29 knots), the range is 10 knots nautical miles, and the military equipment is 3. The 406 mm and 50 times the caliber ship
The cannon uses a load-bearing turret, two in front and one in the rear, and the secondary cannons are 10 seats 155mm rapid-fire cannons and 10 seats double 37mm rapid-fire cannons. The armor uses new domestic armor, and its performance is completely enough to match Krupp's latest armor.
, the main turret and bridge are armoured at 406 mm, the deck is 135 mm, and the side straps are 406 mm.
Compared with the Tang-class battleship, the Empire-class battleship has stronger firepower and a considerable speed. After completion, no country's battleship can compete with the Empire-class battleship. And,
'Imperial level, battleships strengthened underwater armor. Even the 450mm medium torpedo of the Navy Air Force is difficult to blow up.'Imperial level, battleships underwater armor, unless they are hit by a 533mm heavy torpedo and hit.
Multiple heavy torpedoes.
Otherwise, there is no danger of sinking the battleship. The Empire-level battleship has such powerful performance, which also makes the Empire-level battleship cost relatively high, each of which is 50 million yuan. Two ships are built in total.
'Empire, 'Neon, 'Neon, 'Neon.
"I informed the shipyard that I will attend the groundbreaking ceremony. However, the shipyard should be able to speed up the progress. I hope that in three years, the Empire level, the battleships can serve in the Chinese Navy. In addition, confidentiality work must
Do it well, before the Empire level and battleships are in service, I don’t want Western countries to learn about the relevant situation!" Wang Yuze said.
"Yes, Your Majesty!'The news about the Tang-class battleship was intentionally leaked by the Empire. If the Empire does not want to, other countries will not be able to find out the specific situation of the Imperial Navy!" said Navy Secretary Zhang Cheng. China's main shipbuilding
Factory, especially the shipyards that build warships for the navy, are military restricted areas, and within a few kilometers, they are guarded by agents from the Ministry of Homeland Security and factory guards. If you want to get involved, it is almost impossible. Only when the warship is built
, Only when sea trials are conducted can you be discovered by the outside world!
Wang Yuze hopes that the imperial-level battleships can serve in three years. He hopes that these two battleships that cost huge amounts of money can catch up with this world war. The current history is completely different from the known history of Wang Yuze. Perhaps
Because of their father and son, the current history has been changed beyond recognition. Therefore, Wang Yuze doesn't know when the war will break out. The only thing he can do next week is to improve China as much as possible before the war breaks out.
military strength.
"Chief of General Staff, when will the negotiation war between General Staff break out?" Wang Yuze asked.
"Based on the many information we have obtained, after analysis, it is believed that the war will probably break out in 1912 or 1913. Both the Allies and the Allies have experienced economic recession and the people's living standards have declined, which shows that because
With the crazy expansion of military forces and preparations for war, the economies of various countries have begun to deteriorate. By 1912 or 1913, the economies of various countries are about to collapse. In order to divert contradictions, countries have no choice but to launch wars, and there is no other way! Of course,
, This is just a preliminary judgment. If some unexpected factors break out during this period, the war may also break out!" said Xiong Wu, Chief of Staff.
"Well! Now all countries have invested most of their national strength into their arms, and the situation in Europe is even more critical, and war is about to break out. The empire also needs to speed up the progress of war preparations!" Wang Yuze said. Because China's death has become a reality.
It's different. The most important change is that Germany is actually stronger than in history. Under the threat of Germany, Britain and France have also accelerated the preparations for war. If this is the case, the war is likely to be less than 1914.
It will explode!
"Your Majesty, the empire's preparations have been in an orderly manner. All kinds of warships of the Navy are being built according to the plan and will not affect the war. The Army has also improved the mobilization mechanism. After the mobilization order is issued, forty reserve brigades across the country will be generalized.
In one week, the divisions were numbered 101 to 200. Within three months, sixty divisions composed of retired soldiers will also be formed, numbered 141 to 200.
.After that, the empire could form 100 new divisions or even 200 new divisions every year to join the war. Judging from the huge army's source, no country can compare with the empire!" said Xiong Wu, Chief of Staff.
At this time, it is also an advantage. After obtaining vast land, especially the rich land in the Nanyang region, China's population has once again achieved great growth. At present, the national population has reached 560 million.
The number of troops that can be recruited is more than 20 million. Moreover, it will not have much impact on the domestic economy!
"Where are the mercenaries? The Japanese and Koreans must also establish corresponding mobilization mechanisms. After the war breaks out, they must also contribute to the empire's hegemony!" Wang Yuze said. Both the Japanese mercenaries and the Korean mercenaries performed well in Nanyang.
In the future wars, they will be very good candidates for cannon fodder!
"After the war begins, Japan can form a mercenary of one million people within two years, and North Korea can also form a mercenary of five hundred thousand people. And, if the empire needs it, the number can be doubled!" Xiong Wu said
.
"Okay, just follow this plan! The next war will be a protracted war, and the empire must be prepared for a protracted war. All kinds of military supplies, especially weapons and ammunition, must be fully prepared.
OK!" Wang Yuze reminded. China does not lack food. Although the population has increased a lot, the rice produced in the Nanyang region every year is enough to support all Chinese people.
"Yes, Your Majesty! All major arsenals have increased their production capacity to the maximum, and the weapons and ammunition produced have been reserved for future wars!" Xiong Wu replied!
On October 1, 190R, Wang Yuze secretly came to Tianjin Shipyard and participated in the groundbreaking ceremony of the Imperial Battleship. The ceremony was very low-key, and no one except the military officials and the shipyard workers attended. Wang Yuze
The arrival made the workers very energetic.
When the gantry crane lifted the first keel and installed it, warm applause rang around the dock. The most powerful battleship of the Imperial Navy finally started construction. In a few years, their heroic postures would appear on the sea, causing the enemy to be terrified.
!
Tianjin Shipyard has become the largest shipyard in the empire. Now there are more than 100,000 workers, and can build all warships from gunboats to battleships and aircraft carriers. The main battleships of the Imperial Navy were built here.
"How is our aircraft carrier being built?" Wang Yuze asked.
After the last naval exercise, the aircraft carrier showed extremely strong combat power during the exercise, which greatly impacted the naval generals. However, the Kunlun, the aircraft carrier was just a training aircraft carrier, and its performance was not sufficient.
To devote himself to actual combat, Wang Yuze asked the warship design to come up with a design plan for a new aircraft carrier after the exercise.
The Navy's Battleship Design Institute is also exploring the design of aircraft carriers. It took more than a year to change it several times during this period, and finally it was finalized. After Wang Yuze's approval, the Empire began in the second half of last year.
The new aircraft carrier has begun construction!
The empire's new aircraft carrier was named "Emeishan class, aircraft carrier, and a total of four will be built, namely "Emeishan, Wutaishan, Jiuhuashan, and Putuoshan. "Emeishan, Mount Emeishan, aircraft carrier,
The standard displacement is 20 tons, the full load displacement is 258OC tons, 2467 meters long, 3338 meters wide, and 853 meters draft. Equipment 1.
Oil-fired boiler, four steam turbines, power of 100,000 horsepower, propulsion around the world, maximum speed is 28 knots, and endurance is 2 knots/2 knots. It can carry 80 combat aircraft and eight seaplanes. The equipment is 8-door mm high-level two
Use cannons, four dual-mounted 88mm anti-aircraft guns, 8 37mm anti-aircraft guns and 24 762mm anti-aircraft machine guns. In addition, the Emeishan class, the aircraft carrier has two lifts and two catapults, which can speed up the takeoff of the fighter!
