Chapter 149 The Pirate King, Flanders

In the memory of Flappis, whose core is Alice 3, Clunpisi inherited it. Although Flappis cannot influence the national ideology, policies, strategies and tactics of Desan, Flappis is still a fan of the inheritance.

He managed to promote the "Z Plan" - a huge shipbuilding plan that was impossible to carry out in certain time and space in history.

Germany, which had just defeated France, was preparing for a decisive battle with Britain. The country was busy producing missile battleships. However, it was a critical period to cut off Britain's supply lines and remove obstacles to the landing. The mustachioed head of state asked for more battleships as soon as possible, and of course he was fighting.

The idea of ​​insulting the law.

In fact, it happened that Baguette himself had already started a plan to suspend various research and development due to the outbreak of the war, use mature and reliable technology to use existing materials as much as possible to build ships, and launch the ships into the water as soon as possible (a normal, non-mysterious time and space)

There is indeed such a plan, the Forbidden World is a bit outrageous in the hippopotamus setting, and it cannot be exaggerated if the magic is changed), plus the chaos of Flappis trying to expand the ghost fleet in the future and taking advantage of the French defeat.

On this occasion, some people on the magic side of the government interfered mentally with the naval generals, and the warships refitted and upgraded by Tokusan and the parts taken from the French ships that were bombed and stranded in the port by the Allies had to be fully utilized——

To put it simply, it is to use the still usable things left over from the First World War and the things originally intended to be used to upgrade the old ships on the new ships as much as possible.

Let me tell you a joke: The World War II ship, which was equivalent to the world's largest first-class battleship at the time and was fully loaded with more than 50,000 tons, did not install artillery that could match the world's most powerful first-class battleship. Instead, it installed two four-unit guns on the bow and stern, a total of sixteen guns.

Each 340mm gun is a 20,000-ton battleship main gun designed before World War I. These guns combined are lighter and shorter than all the main guns originally scheduled to be assembled.

At the request of Big, Heavy and Numerous Mustache, another pair of turrets of the same model were added in the middle of the ship behind the two turrets at the bow, in a stepped layout, as well as nearly thirty 130-150mm high-flat dual-purpose secondary guns, breaking the

It set the Guinness World Record for the number of main and secondary guns on a battleship at that time.

After all, the so-called missiles in those days did not have tracking functions. Even if the old large-caliber guns could not compete with the latest naval guns as naval guns, they were used in many other ways, such as train guns and fortress guns used by the army.

Shore guns for coastal defense and coastal defense can also be mounted on small-tonnage ships of the Navy to support other battles.

Although the output is not large, production will not be completely stopped just because the gun is not powerful as a battleship.

France, which agreed to become its younger brother, continued to put outdated weapons on warships. It was not because the masters of Desan had lost their minds. That ship was a temporary destroyer used as a pirate ship, and it was not intended for peer-to-peer combat. When "

"Pirate Ship" needs to use existing equipment as much as possible to expand the number of naval ships as soon as possible. And——

If the French stick becomes the younger brother and wants to rebel, seize the ship and defect to the Allies, then it will be convenient for Tokusan to kill you, right?

This is really not too much. In terms of secondary batteries, the 130-150mm guns are dual-purpose guns, which are normal when anti-aircraft properties are taken into consideration. In terms of main guns, the battleships originally designed by France before World War I had a displacement of two

A 16-barrel main gun monster of more than 10,000 tons. The main gun used by this ship is basically the same level. The displacement is doubled and the length is increased by 60 meters. It is not too much to install more main guns, right? Not only is it not too much, it is guaranteed

While the hull is armored, it still has the ability to ensure sufficient power, allowing the warship's top speed to rival fast warships.

Although the design is backward, it was suspected that the ship would be overturned when firing a salvo of side artillery. However, due to the huge tonnage and weak artillery, there was no problem. Since the cannon was short and the shells were short, the range was relatively close, so it could engage in bombardment with warships of 30,000 to 40,000 tons.

You may lose, but on the other hand, being a "pirate ship" has considerable benefits——

Rush towards a large fleet of merchant ships and small warships at high speed. The large number of main and secondary guns fired head-on, equivalent to a standard World War I battleship, can hit a large number of targets, which is conducive to quickly annihilating a large number of merchant ships; when you see the enemy's capital ship, you will

While being able to escape quickly, the firepower density of the midship, stern, and rearward firing is also high enough. The power of the shells can hit warships that are catching up quickly but have weak defenses. This configuration encounters the same high speed, thicker armor, and main gun.

However, the more powerful German three battleships cannot be defeated and cannot escape.

This fully embodies the strategic and tactical thinking of "fight if you can win, run if you can't, and kill if you rebel."

This ship had just been launched into the water for a few days for trial sea trials. Although there was a small problem with the balance, the superiors were eager to order it to go out with the Bismarck. As a result, it leaked information and was surrounded and suppressed. However, together with the Bismarck, it sank five ships and severely damaged two British ships.

There were some battleships and some small merchant ships - although at that time, heavy weapons like Germany's were equipped with the subtle buff of Flampis, but they were still very powerful.

Then she and the Bismarck were both surrounded and killed by the British fleet. It is said that the former had a bomb that sent the first three turrets flying into the sky. The explosion was extremely tragic and it sank quickly. Only five people on the ship survived.

For De San, this exchange ratio was very good and caused a sensation in the world; at the same time, a total of seven battleships were included in Flampis's fleet in this battle, which was not a loss for them.

But it also means that the survivability of this huge ship that was hastily launched by Desan was problematic. The Bismarck next door took hundreds of attacks and did not sink. In the end, it sank without hope of fighting.

This ship was used by Flampis and participated in many battles, but it did not have any outstanding unique performance. Because the appearance is quite in line with the aesthetics of this world, and it is indeed handsome, it was brought back by Kraunpisi and scheduled to have its configuration overhauled.

A specially modified ship - after all, its survivability is problematic, even as a ghost ship.

As for the reason for designating it, Michaelis thought that there was only one reason. The spelling of the name of the ship was exactly the same as "Flandreau", and Granbell's appearance and dress were those of Claudius.

It was influenced by the impression of the second young lady called that name in a certain time and space.

In fact, there are five ghost battleships, three battlecruisers, and two light cruisers that had a similar fate "in life". For some political purposes, they still belong to the defeated country in name. The former is because the same new ship is equipped with the old equipment.

The rapid shipbuilding plan was redesignated as the Normandy class that was aborted before World War I. It was also equipped with 330mm naval guns, which were a bit small in relative tonnage but had some inventory. Two 340mm naval guns and eight 380mm naval guns were mounted in four units each.

They were named Normandy, Languedoc, and Flanders respectively; the light cruiser was the Holland class. It was just because they were smaller, had average firepower, and were not handsome enough that the Scarlet sisters did not take a fancy to them.
