Chapter 284: The Fleet Departs

There are no problems with the equipment and personnel. The commander-in-chief of this expeditionary force is Zhang Wenhao, who is also the commander of the first army of the expeditionary force. The deputy commander is Huang Jingran. He was promoted to commander because of his outstanding performance in the last battle.

, and was later transferred to the Expeditionary Force as the commander of the Second Army. The commander of the self-propelled artillery division was Xia Xiaoxi. Although he was not promoted and there were no 155mm heavy artillery in the artillery, Xia Xiaoxi saw so many self-propelled artillery and ran with them.

Just like tanks, I immediately decided to become the commander of the artillery division without even thinking about it. The commander of the armored division was Yu Hanyang, who was under Sun Chuanling. This time, their armored division had a hundred 25-ton "Baiqi" ​​medium tanks.

The Air Force has 300 transport aircraft, which mainly rely on them to transport troops and supplies, 200 fighter jets, 150 bombers and 50 torpedo planes.

As the commander of the special forces, Xiao Qipeng has personally led the team to hide in the overseas Chinese's home. As soon as the war starts, they will attack the British army from all directions, create chaos and coordinate the large forces.

On December 25, 1935, the Christian Christmas, Qin's North Sea Fleet set out from Jiaozhou to conduct routine exercises and patrols. They had done this countless times, and each time the location was different, so this time

It didn't attract anyone's attention. In fact, this time they were going to sneak attack the British fleet in Hong Kong. The date of the attack was December 30. In the meantime, their supplies would be delivered to them by merchant ships on the way. Wang Jiuling had already arranged it.

The North Sea Fleet has 2 cruisers, 4 destroyers, 8 torpedo boats, 8 gunboats, 10 submarines, and 4 minesweepers. However, the gunboats will not participate in the attack, and the 8 frigates will not participate in the attack.

The South China Sea Fleet in Qingzhou has three cruisers, 4 destroyers, 8 torpedo boats, 2 heavy gunboats, 12 submarines, 8 frigates, 8 gunboats, and 6 minesweepers.

In Yizhou is the Coast Guard. They have 2 destroyers, 4 gunboats, 4 torpedo boats, 6 submarines, 6 minesweepers, and 6 frigates.

The Qin State has hundreds of ships, but it does not have large warships. It has only copied 8 submarines and 16 minesweepers. In fact, it is not easy to copy these things in two years. Wang Jiuling has almost no such things.

However, after two years of development and manufacturing this batch of ships, a group of technical talents have been cultivated. Qin’s navy is also very open. If it continues to build ships, it will be able to build cruisers, but there are no

experience

Wang Jiuling knew nothing except that aircraft carriers were the future development trend and that missiles would be equipped with aircraft and ships. Of course, he also told Sa Zhenbing what he knew. In the battle against Britain, Sa Zhenbing also fully saw the powerful combat effectiveness of aircraft.

, he is not as superstitious about giant ships and cannons as he used to be. The world has entered the era of aircraft carriers and aircraft. Maybe battleships will still be useful in the past two years, but it will take at least four years to wait for Qin's battleships to be built, and another year to trial.

It was 1940, and it would take two years to form combat effectiveness. Then it would be 1942. Qin had no time to form combat effectiveness, and battleships were already obsolete by that time. Therefore, in order to obtain the maximum benefit at the minimum cost in World War II, Wang Jiuling

Prioritize the development of the aircraft carrier fleet. Under Wang Jiuling's persuasion, Sa Zhenbing finally agreed. Wang Jiuling was afraid that he would be passive and sabotage, and promised that if conditions allowed, a battleship could be built and named after him.

Sa Zhenbing's motivation after receiving Wang Jiuling's promise was indeed much higher than before. He also knew the power of aircraft carriers, but from the Sino-Japanese War to the First World War, the influence of the giant ships and cannons on him was so profound that it had already penetrated into his bones.

The battleship is the most sacred in his heart, the holiest place, and the destination of his soul.

Wang Jiuling's plan is to build 10 aircraft carriers by 1942. Sa Zhenbing is doing the specific things of Sa Zhenbing. He wants money to give money and people to give people. Wang Jiuling only looks at the results. However, when it comes to tilting the deck of the aircraft carrier, Wang Jiuling also follows Sa Zhenbing.

Zhen Bing has discussed it, and the appearance of future aircraft carriers has also been discussed with them. Wang Jiuling only knows so much, everything is up to him.

When the North Sea Fleet sets off, the South Sea Fleet also sets out from Qingzhou. They will float on the sea for a few days. After the North Sea Fleet kills the British fleet, transport ships disguised as merchant ships will transport two regiments to Hong Kong Island and capture Hong Kong.

, if the British fleet is not killed and the situation goes bad, the transport will leave immediately. Of course, the transport ship will not stay with the fleet.

If the fleet does not capture Hong Kong, they will all move freely to attack other British ships, capture or sink them, and prevent the British in Hong Kong from receiving supplies. If they are lucky enough to capture Hong Kong, they will fight in the South China Sea and attack British and

Italian ships, if the South China Sea Fleet and the Air Force did not kill the British fleet in Borneo, then they might still ambush these British fleets.

The Coast Guard in Yizhou is responsible for monitoring the Indian Ocean. If the British army comes for a sneak attack, shore artillery and aircraft will wait for these British warships.

As soon as the fleet sets off, the expeditionary force is operating secretly. They have to prepare everything and be ready to set off at any time.

This time it depends on whether the British fleet can be destroyed. As long as the British fleet can be destroyed, the Qin Navy can still fight. If there is no threat of returning, there is no need to risk the aircraft being unable to return.

Danger is coming. Wang Jiuling is taking a big gamble this time. Ying Yi can’t delay it any longer.

The British had no intention of making peace for half a year, which shows that the British did not give up and wanted to avenge their past humiliation. Qin had no way to eliminate the threat from India to the west and the British islands in the Indian Ocean, so Wang Jiuling only

If it can solve Malaya and Hong Kong in Borneo first, it will be difficult for Britain to threaten Qin in the South China Sea if it loses these two bases.

In November, a British monoplane fighter called "Hurricane" successfully made a test flight. This shows that the aircraft technology of Yiwu is already ahead of Qin. Qin's biplanes are difficult to compete with. With Britain's national strength, they will soon be able to produce more

It will only take a few months for them to have the upper hand in the air, and Qin's monoplane has not yet been finalized. If Wang Jiuling does not solve the threats from Borneo and Hong Kong, he will not be able to concentrate on facing the threats from the Indian Ocean and India.

Although the British could not destroy the Qin State, harassing the teachers at the seaside was not an option. After all, the Qin State's air force was limited. Wang Jiuling did not want to spend time with the British unless he had to. Although the British suffered the greatest losses in the end, Wang Jiuling shouldered the heavy responsibility.

What they want is to promote Confucian civilization to the world. Britain has fallen. They also have the United States, Soviet Russia, Germany, and France. They have been developing and expanding for hundreds of years. Sixty to seventy percent of the world belongs to them. Christians

, all over the world, even the old Chiang Kai-shek and his wife in China. This seems to be something Wang Jiuling cannot accept, and history has proven that they want to turn people all over the world into selfish Christians...
