Guantanamo Port.

The two armed merchant ships, "Water Hound" and "Great White Shark", are undergoing final supply. After the supply is completed, they will go directly to Nassau Port.

The Waterhound and the Great White Shark are both armed merchant ships registered in the Port of Santiago and are also the first batch of armed merchant ships in the United States of Cuba.

It is precisely because of this "first" that the "Waterhound" and the "Great White Shark" have attracted many attention, including senior US Navy officers.

"It looks very good..." On the fort outside the port, Guantanamo Navy Commander Michelin Hubble sounded careless, but in fact the telescope in his hand was always staring at the "Water Hound" and "Great White Shark".

It's not just good. The Waterhound and the Great White Shark are both new ships that use propellers to propel. There are not many such new ships within the US Navy, so it is naturally impossible to deploy them in Guantanamo.

The United States' overall military policy is still inclined to defend, and the weapon renewal speed is very slow. There are sail warships in the Navy that were in service more than a decade ago. This new type of ship was promoted using propellers. Only rich units like New York Customs have the money to buy.

"It's not just very good. You don't know what kind of artillery they are equipped with, otherwise I'd bet you'll have the thought of catching the ship now." Guantanamo Chief Executive Green Giles took the opportunity and gave him eye drops.

Green Giles and Li Mu have a close relationship. Junma Weapons Company has developed a new type of artillery and must win a certain number of military orders to make money. Because the army has too few people, it is unrealistic to open a breakthrough from the army, so Li Mu still pins his hopes on the navy. Li Mu believes that as long as there are enough naval officers interested in rapid-fire cannons, it will definitely prompt the US Navy to set off a craze for equipment replacement.

All the naval guns currently used by US Navy warships are old-fashioned guns. This kind of gun has great limitations, small caliber, slow firing speed, too much recoil, etc. Compared with the new type of tube-retard guns, tube-retard guns are like medieval spears, while tube-retard guns are the latest shotguns.

The biggest bottleneck restricting the gun removal of the frame is the recoil force. Because the recoil force is too large, it is impossible to develop large-caliber artillery. When used, the large-caliber artillery will destroy the structure of the warship. In other words, if you can't fire a few guns, the entire ship will be shaken apart. This is the standard seven-injury fist.

The recoil of the gun is different. The recoil of the gun is absorbed by the retractor to the maximum extent, making it possible to develop large-caliber artillery. If the Navy does not receive support from the Navy, Junma Weapons Company is not ready to develop large-caliber naval guns. Anyway, if it is only used to equip armed merchant ships, it is enough to have 75mm rapid-fire cannons.

"You mean the 75mm infantry rapid-fire cannon. Haha, it is still unknown whether this cannon can be transplanted onto a warship. And what can the 75mm cannon do? Can it be used to tickle the warship?" Michelin Hubble looked down on the army, and even more so on the army's equipment. This is a common problem for all naval officers.

Compared with the army, the navy is a standard high-tech armament. Nowadays, the army also advocates human sea tactics. The navy's main weapon is artillery, and artillery is called "scientist armament", so the army...

Thinking of the Army, Michelin Hubble's mind quickly outlined a yellowish military uniform full of eyes, carrying a ragged flintlock rifle, and covered in dust.

How can this kind of army that is the same as a beggar be compared with the navy?

Is it better to have no comparison at all?

As a senior officer of the Navy, Michelin Hubble certainly knew about the 75mm infantry rapid-fire gun. As the first artillery produced in the United States, the 75mm infantry rapid-fire gun combines a number of advanced technologies and is currently the most advanced artillery in the world. Some time ago, Ulysses Grant regarded this as a Republican political achievement and widely publicized it.

"Junma Weapons Company has established a cooperative relationship with the German Krupp Artillery Company. The 75mm infantry rapid-fire gun was developed by them in cooperation. You may not look down on the 75mm infantry rapid-fire gun, but you may not know that Krupp has begun to develop 210mm artillery. If the 75mm artillery is not qualified to board a warship, then is the 210mm artillery qualified?" Green Giles does not believe that Michelin Hubble will not take the bait. In fact, Krupp's 210mm artillery also represents the latest technology in the world today. If you don't even look down on this, then there are no weapons that can make Michelin Hubble look at it.

"210mm, is this news sure?" Michelin Hubble was of course interested. The 75mm cannon is indeed a little weak, but the 210mm is not weak at all. If the Guantanamo Navy could have a warship equipped with 210mm cannon...

Oh oh oh, that picture is so beautiful that I can't even think about it.

"Of course it's certain, this is the news that came from within the Junma Weapons Company. You know, they are partners, but we don't have any demand for this, so Junma Weapons Company has not carried out further cooperation with the Germans." Green Ers sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and slowly put the bait bit by bit.

"No need? It's really nonsense. How could the Navy not need naval guns? This is simply a fantasy. The leaders of Junma Weapons are too short-sighted. How could they do this? This is a crime..." Michelin Hubble was furious. In his opinion, if the US Navy loses the opportunity to improve its strength due to the uncooperation of Junma Weapons, the leaders of Junma Weapons should be brought to court.

But Junma Weapons Company...

It seems to be affiliated with the Junma Group!

Michelin Hubble was speechless immediately. If so, it would be difficult to bring the leader of the Junma Weapons Company to court.

Junma Group has become well-known. Although Michelin Hubble is far away in Guantanamo, he also understands the power that Junma Group has, which is not something that anyone can shake.

At least Michelin Hubble can't shake it!

"The leaders of Junma Weapons are businessmen. No matter what they do, they must first measure business interests, so you cannot measure them with too high moral standards." Green Giles spoke from Li Mu's standpoint. Don't mention patriotism at this time, which makes sense.

In fact, the United States also has ideological and political work, and patriotism is an important aspect. All Americans have been inculcated from childhood to be loyal to the United States, and those new immigrants even swear when they become American nationality.

Of course, patriotism is not unconditional. The United States of America will not treat anyone who sacrifices his life and sheds his blood for her. Then the same is true for business activities. If you have to pay, you will gain something. You cannot expect a businessman to pay out of your own pocket to help the country improve its military strength. This is unrealistic.

Michelin Hubble also understood this truth. He wanted the horse to run and not eat grass. How could such a good thing be?

"210mm naval gun...210mm naval gun..." Michelin Hubble kept repeating this sentence and no longer had the intention to watch the armed merchant ships anchored in the military port.

It's a pity that Michelin Hubble's flagship is equipped with a 120mm naval gun. If it is replaced by a 210...

"If we develop a 210 naval gun, how much will it cost?" Michelin Hubble decided to give it a try. At least it may succeed if it is tried. If it is not done, it will never succeed.

"No matter how much money it costs, I probably won't be able to get it out this year." Green Giles told the truth.

The military's annual funding is budgeted. Before the start of each fiscal year, the military first makes a fiscal budget for the next year, and then submits it to the President's Palace, and then submits it to the President for review by the President.

Although sometimes if an accident occurs, temporary additional funds will be added, the total amount of additional funds is also limited, and you have to endure the rigorous review of the stingy Congressional people, so you probably have no money to launch projects this year.

If the project cannot be established this year, it will be pushed to the next fiscal year. If it continues year by year, when the 210mm naval gun is successfully developed, it is estimated that the Germans' 310 will have already come out.

You can't keep up with one step, you can't keep up with one step.

"It doesn't matter, we can also buy technology directly from the Germans." Michelin Hubble thought about it. Anyway, it will cost money to develop it yourself. It's better to buy technology directly, and there is no need to waste time.

"No, no, no, if you don't know Lim of Junma Group, he will never spend money to buy any technology. You know Junma Lab, that was founded by Lim, so spending money to buy technology may be normal for others, but it is a shame for Lim." Green Giles knew Li Mu's usual style, so he gave the vaccination first.

"If he doesn't buy it, just let him study it by himself. We can build a factory by ourselves." Michelin Hubble said it very easily, as if the artillery factory is a cabbage in the market.

"You should be your naval commander honestly. Building a factory is not as easy as you imagined. Land, factories, machinery and equipment, skilled workers, strong funds, sufficient raw materials, etc., is no less complicated than organizing a large-scale battle, so it is better to leave this kind of thing to people like Reim to do." Green Giles laughed in silence. With the current strength of Junma Group in the United States, he wanted to build a new weapon factory, one to die.

"Well, I admit that I'm not good at this, but I have something I'm good at. I'll send a report later. No matter how it is, it requires new warships, a large number of new warships, and new warships equipped with large caliber artillery." A crying child has milk, Michelin Hubble decided to start from the field he is best at.

"That's right. I can also call a report. Guantanamo was attacked by pirates in succession. The dignified US Navy actually couldn't even destroy several pirates because of weapons. This is simply a shame." Green Giles' words were a little bit criticized, and Michelin Hubble's face turned red.

"What does it mean to be frequent harassment? Do those pirates dare to harass Guantanamo? Lend them a courage." Michelin Hubble was dissatisfied. If Green Giles handed over the report, Michelin Hubble would not have to report it. Even if a new warship equipped with 210mm caliber artillery was distributed, it would not be Michelin Hubble's turn to use her as a flagship.

"Okay okay, I won't write that. I will only say that in order to meet the requirements of the United States of Cuba, we need to be equipped with newer and more powerful warships." Green Giles immediately changed his words. He and Michelin Hubble were the highest executive officer of Guantanamo and the other was the highest military officer of Guantanamo. They could not destroy each other.

Some time ago, the United States of Cuba did ask Guantanamo to eliminate pirates, but Michelin Hubble is also a clever woman. Guantanamo's navy is backward in equipment and almost always has sexual power. It can still be scared when parked in a military port. Once it is pulled out of the military port, its true colors will be revealed.

At 2 pm, the Waterhound and Great White Sharks completed their supplies and continued to Nassau. It is expected that the Waterhound and Great White Sharks will arrive in Nassau at 8 a.m. tomorrow.

The time left for Cruise is getting less and less.

At the same time, on Pig Island, which is only ten kilometers away from Lhasa, Cruise finally waited for the most capable subordinate Shitou.

"Head, we are all ready. With your order, I can guarantee that when the sun rises tomorrow, the skull will penetrate Nassau City and Nassau Port." Shi Too was eager to try, his eyes looking towards Nassau were filled with greed.

If Shi Tou is not mentioned, then few people may be able to guess that Shi Tou is an active officer of the Royal Navy of the United Kingdom.

As an active-duty officer, it is unusual to appear outside Nassau, not to mention that it is mixed with a notorious pirate like "Red Beard". If this fact is spread, it will definitely be a big scandal and may shock your chin.

"Tell your brothers, let them be prepared, and when the sun sets, we will act immediately. When the woman picks up whatever she wants, she can drink wine." Cruise knew what the pirates wanted. At this time, we need to use wine and women to stimulate their nerves.

"Hehehehe..." Stone made a creepy laugh. For the pirates who lived on the boat all day long, both wine and women liked it, and Stone was no exception.

"Sir, please let me tell you a message. If you want to act tonight, please be sure to keep the battlefield within the Port of Nassau and not affect Nassau City. At the same time, the Governor hopes that you can restrain your subordinates and prevent them from landing as much as possible." Henderson hurried over to report.

"I heard that there was no stone, and I said that I would not let you land." Bruce didn't care and was still joking with stone.
Chapter completed!
