Although Japan has not yet sued for peace, at least most of the threats have disappeared. It was difficult for the Ming Dynasty navy to even enter the Western Pacific, and now it is unscrupulously surrounding the Japanese archipelago. The Japanese naval power has been greatly damaged, and coupled with the
They were short of fuel and did not dare to sail in formation easily. Instead, like the Ming army before, they huddled in the local military port to preserve their strength.
The Ming Dynasty has now become a veritable sea power country like the United Kingdom, and it is a sea power country dominated by surface ships. In the past, the surface ship forces of the Ming Army mainly stayed in the port, half of which concentrated on preventing Japanese invasion, and the other half of which
They didn't dare to go out either. Now a large number of surface ships of the Ming Army were put to use. They were spread out, convoy escort, blockade blockade, as if they were enjoying the hard-won control of the sea.
The naval blockade of cruisers combined with submarine groups now not only prevents Japan’s oil tankers from entering the port, but also prevents any ships from entering the port. The blockade rate has truly reached 100%. In addition to blockading the other side, the Ming army’s cruisers and destroyers also provided services for its own merchants.
The fleet escorts to prevent Japanese warships and submarines from slipping out and destroying communication lines. The two aircraft carriers of the Ming Army regularly maintain cruising in the Western Pacific waters. Once a situation arises anywhere, carrier-based aircraft can go to support in the shortest possible time.
There are only two things in Xiang Xiaoqiang's mind right now. The first thing is that he is about to marry Zhu Yourong. There are only a few days left. The wedding date is set for April 26, which is April on both the solar and lunar calendars.
On March 26th, in order to select the specific date of the Queen's wedding, the National Meteorological Observatory carried out continuous observations several days in advance. Several highly respected meteorological experts and leaders conducted detailed analysis and argumentation, and finally concluded unanimously that this
The weather should be sunny all day long, and the temperature and humidity should be very comfortable.
Xiang Xiaoqiang has now seen what kind of standards Her Majesty the Empress of the Ming Empire will get married. Let’s not talk about how big the wedding ceremony was and how much money it cost. Just choosing the date, the National Meteorological Observatory spent as much time as Ming Ming.
The time spent before major military operations. When he married Qiu Qiu, Xiuxiu, and even when he married Shi Shigege, he paid for the banquets with his own money. When did he use the power of the state? Now he is the husband-in-law.
, it can be regarded as an eye-opening experience following the Queen’s wife.
Zhu Yourong and Xiang Xiaoqiang have been very busy these days. The Palace Secretariat, the Imperial Guard, the company that provides various materials and services for the wedding, as well as the Security Department of the People's Guard responsible for security, Dongchang agents... all departments are working together
There have been numerous rehearsals. The various ceremonial departments in the Forbidden City are rehearsing every day. As the heroine, Zhu Yourong naturally cannot escape. In the past few days, she has been "manipulated" by the people below and ordered around like a doll.
Rehearsing and training, I was exhausted, but my heart was very sweet.
Fortunately, there are always a few girls around Zhu Yourong, like bridesmaids, chatting and laughing with her, and accompanying her to deal with trivial things. Among them, the three most "core" girls are Zheng Yucong and Wei Zi.
Jin, Xiu Xiu. In addition, there are three more "peripheral" girls, namely Zhu Yourong's second sister Zhu Youmei, third sister Zhu Youli, and fourth sister Zhu Younan. Compared with Zheng Yucong, Xiu Xiu, and Wei Zijin, these three
It's much more natural to have a biological sister. She doesn't always stay with Zhu Yourong. When she's happy, she runs to her sister to join in the fun. Or she just runs around in the palace and takes advantage of the good day of her sister's wedding to have no one.
No matter what, there is no need to do any homework, just have fun and play.
There are also several elders, mainly the nanny Mrs. Li and uncle Zheng Gongyin, who are also surrounding Zhu Yourong. The "Rongrong" is longer and the "Rongrong" is shorter. They are extremely affectionate, as if they will never see each other again after they get married.
It seemed like we had arrived. In short, Zhu Yourong was so busy here.
Xiang Xiaoqiang was also very busy. He had to take some time to attend a rehearsal with Zhu Yourong, and then went back. In addition to marrying Zhu Yourong, there was another major event that affected Xiang Xiaoqiang's nerves, which was the match between him and Zhu Yourong.
The Soviet Union's upcoming spring offensive.
Although the Pacific route is in Shanghai and Hangzhou, progress is slower, but from the Indian Ocean route, massive supplies from the United States have been continuously transported to the Ming Dynasty. Now the Ming army deployed on the western front has achieved 100% full mechanization or
Motorized road transportation capacity from Lanzhou to the front line has increased by 120% compared with last year.
Not only vehicles, weapons and war supplies were shipped from the United States, but also many oil tankers. When these tankers arrived, they were full of oil, which was produced on the Gulf Coast of Mexico. After arriving in Guangdong, the oil was pumped directly to the coastal refineries.
In the oil tanks of the factory, these tankers did not go back, but joined the tankers of several oil companies in the Ming Dynasty, traveling between Guangdong and Nanyang, transporting Nanyang oil for the Ming Dynasty. These tankers themselves were part of the order, carrying American oil.
I came here just to avoid running empty and not wasting transportation capacity.
A large amount of refinery equipment was also transported with the fleet. In this era, the United States is the world's largest oil producer, and the entire oil industry chain is very developed, from exploration and mining to refining and finishing.
The equipment and technology related to petroleum are very mature, and the production capacity is quite huge. As the equipment is shipped to Guangdong, a number of new refineries are being built to support the huge war against the Soviet Union.
Car after car of arms is speeding along the railway line and transported to western Gansu. In addition to tanks and artillery on flatbed cars, there are also many small weapons. The main ones are new automatic rifles-F-38. These automatic rifles are used in winter.
In the Siberian War, especially in the Battle of Sakhalin, it shined brilliantly. After nearly two years of hard work and repeated modifications, this automatic rifle was not as unreliable as Xiang Xiaoqiang feared. On the contrary, in the cold and wet Northeast
On the winter battlefield, the F-38 has withstood the test without large-scale mechanical failure. Many times, the gun is filled with snow or even mud, and as long as it is wiped a few times, it can still fire.
In the forest and snowfields in winter, there is often mist, heavy snowfall, and low visibility. Moreover, in the forest environment, the range is also very limited. But in this environment, the soldiers of the Ming Army still praised the F-38.
Now, the new battlefield has moved to the vast grasslands and the Gobi Desert with wide views. The officers and soldiers of the Ming Army are very confident and believe that this automatic rifle will exert greater advantages.
Along with the rifle itself, shipped to Gansu, there are also a batch of matching bipods. This is an "extended product" specially developed by Qishunfa Company for the battlefield environment in Central Asia. After communicating with the military, they all believed that in the open battlefield of Central Asia
In this environment, the distance between the two armies will be greatly increased. Therefore, the range and accuracy of the gun are more important. With the addition of a bipod, soldiers can achieve more accurate shooting effects when shooting in a prone position.
More or less a replacement for the light machine gun.
