At noon, everyone had lunch in Zhou Yu's villa. After lunch, everyone dispersed, leaving only Rong Hong and Liu Yongfu. Even Liu Chengliang went to arrange work for the afternoon.
As soon as Zhu Qian heard that Zhou Yu was going to work in the afternoon, she immediately felt empty. She had just arrived in Yuebei not long ago, and everyone was unfamiliar with her. As soon as Zhou Yu left, she was left alone in the villa.
I feel very uneasy!
However, when it comes to big things, she still understands the situation clearly. As a woman, you cannot make trouble unreasonably! It is okay to act coquettishly occasionally, but women who do not distinguish between serious and serious matters are extremely disgusting to every man! Therefore, she is still high
He happily sent Zhou Yu out of the villa.
On the way to the Haiphong Naval Base, Zhou Yu asked Rong Hong and Liu Yongfu doubtfully: Mr. Rong, in all the intelligence, why didn't you mention the movements of Little Japan?
After listening to Zhou Yu's words, Rong Hong immediately chuckled and replied to Zhou Yu: Haha! There is nothing to say about Little Japan's intelligence. With the pugs you installed inside them, they can't play any tricks!
However, due to the strong appearance of our loyal and brave army, the little devils who felt threatened also imitated the Manchu government and sent Minister of the Interior Sanjo Sanimi to Europe to buy ironclads! Toyama Mitsuru also revealed that the Emperor of Japan ordered Sanjo
Britain and the United States secretly approached the United Kingdom about the specific matters of alliance!
According to the information from my European Intelligence Department, "Little Japan's diplomatic strategy was completely defeated in the United Kingdom! However, the British fully agreed to their request for the purchase of ironclad ships. Little Japan purchased several ships in the UK, which were more powerful than those of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties."
An advanced iron-clad giant ship.'
Now the ironclad ships they have spent a lot of money to order are about to be built. It is expected that they will be fully equipped in the army before 1890! By then, they will be a big threat to China!
After Rong Hong finished speaking, Zhou Yu lowered his head and thought for a while, then said to Rong Hong and Liu Yongfu:
We must now focus our main attention on Little Japan and Tsarist Russia, followed by the British and the Matadors. The other ghosts have not directly faced us yet, so we can let them go a little bit!
As for the French, even if they have ideas, they don't have the strength to fight us now!
Rong Hong and the others nodded to express their understanding.
As they walked and talked, the road under their feet became much shorter. As they were about to arrive at the Zhongyong Army Naval Base in Haiphong, Zhou Yu finally said to everyone: Ok, let’s discuss these issues later! Let’s take a look first.
Let’s talk about our armored ship!
Outside the naval base, Lu Han led a small number of senior generals and walked out of the base in high spirits to greet Zhou Yu and Rong Hong.
Since Lu Han and the others were involved in military affairs and were relatively far away from Liujiazhai, none of the military backbones went to welcome Zhou Yu's return. They were still far away, so Lu Han felt very cheerful.
, smiled and opened his arms to Zhou Yu:
Haha! Welcome, Principal, to inspect our South China Sea Fleet! I haven’t seen you for a year, but Principal you are still the same, handsome, elegant and suave!
Zhou Yu first punched Lu Han lightly on his strong chest, and then gave him a warm hug: You have made a difference! You are now in command of a Dreadnought Battleship, and now you don’t even need to use the most basic military etiquette.
Have you forgotten! When you saw me, you didn’t know how to give a military salute and even teased me. How brave are you?
There! Aren’t the students so excited to see you, the principal, coming to inspect the work? In this excitement, they forgot about it! If you, the principal, think that the students did not do well, the students can start over again!
Everyone was amused by Lu Han and burst into laughter.
After Zhou Yu and other generals saw the ceremony one by one, they said to Lu Han: Let's go, don't waste everyone's time anymore, let's go see your treasure - the A2 pre-dreadnought battleship!
Yes...yes! Let's take a look at our cute big guy first! I can never get tired of looking at students! Every time I see it, my blood boils and my mood surges! That is the pride of our Chinese loyal army! Come on!
Come on! Everyone, please come here! As soon as he heard Zhou Yu talking about the A2 pre-dreadnought battleship, Lu Han seemed to be full of energy and hurriedly invited everyone in for inspection.
Although the former Dreadnought Battleship was the data and drawing model provided by Zhou Yu himself, when Zhou Yu actually boarded the A2 in person, he was still impressed by its majestic and graceful figure and majestic wild momentum.
Shocked!….
The first thing that comes into view is the eight-seat twin-mounted 403mm breech-mounted rifling fully hidden main guns. These main guns have been modified by Zhao Hu and Zhou Yu according to Zhou Yu's wishes. They are all equipped with anti-recoil devices, and they are already faintly visible.
The shadow of later generations of artillery! The secondary battery is twenty-six single-barreled 76mm rapid-fire guns. It is also slightly improved from my own design at that time!
The armor of the battleship is no different from the one designed by Wei Han. It is 280 mm new alloy steel and adopts a key defense configuration. The all-steel battleship is thickly covered by Wei Han and his friends with the special paint they invented. It can't be seen from the outside.
It’s not a battleship, but it uses high-tech electric welding technology!
Secondly, the shape of the battleship adopts a more scientific square tail and external floating body shape. It is completely based on the original design, and the overall layout of the battleship has not changed.
After entering the interior of A2, Zhou Yu discovered that the battleship's power steam wheel set, three-phase generator set, diesel engine, optical thermal rangefinder, diesel generator set, underwater torpedo launcher, etc. were all exactly according to his original design.
standards, perfectly matched and installed, without any discrepancies!
Zhou Yu saw that all the officers and soldiers on the former Dreadnought Battleship were quite proficient in the projects they were operating. He knew that this was the result of everyone's hard training! He caressed every inch of A2 lovingly, feeling in his heart
Full of emotions!
It has been five years since I accidentally traveled to this different world in March 1880. The emergence of the A-class pre-dreadnought battleship is the culmination of the hard work of myself and the vast number of scientific and technical personnel of the Zhongyong Army! They
Not only is it a perfect masterpiece of technicians, but it is also the cornerstone and wing of the Chinese nation's rejuvenation!
On the command tower of the A2 battleship, Lu Han proudly said to Zhou Yu and the others:
It has been verified by all of us that the A-class pre-dreadnought battleship has a full load of 15,200 tons, a standard speed of 24 knots, and the effective shooting range of the main gun is as high as 12,000 meters. If we use extended-range bombs and guidance devices, the effective range will be even more terrifying!
Such a battleship is more than twice as powerful as the configuration of the most advanced armored ships in the European and American countries today.
This is our battleship, this is the unique giant ship cannon in the world!
Zhou Yu laughed loudly at the narcissistic Lu Han and said: Hahahaha... Are you satisfied with these and self-sufficient? Then I will build another 50,000-ton class, a 100,000-ton class, and even a million-ton class.
What about the ton-level real iron-clad giant ship? Aren’t you going to faint from happiness?
What? Principal, you are talking about a 100,000- to 1-million-ton real armored giant ship? How is that possible? Even if it is built, there will be no power equipment to drive it! Senior navy generals such as Lu Han and Cheng Ying,
Even Rong Hong, Liu Yongfu, Liu Chengliang and others who knew nothing about the navy looked as if they were shocked to death by Zhou Yu's words.
In their limited imagination, the pre-dreadnought battleship is the ultimate behemoth of the navy! And Zhou Yu suddenly has a 1 million-ton iron-clad giant ship. What is the concept? They simply cannot imagine it and have no way of imagining it. After all,
That is beyond their understanding!
Zhou Yu's face was calm, his eyes were looking at the void in the distance of the command tower, and he said to everyone in a deep tone:
That’s right! The 1 million-ton iron-armored giant ship, the real iron-armored giant ship, will be the sharpest spear for our Chinese navy to conquer the world’s oceans. It will be the giant spear that pierces the hearts of the ghosts! It will also be the future Chinese nation, as the world
The mobile fortress of the ocean overlord!
Not only in the ocean, but also in the sky, we must have the goshawk that dominates the world's sky! On land, we must also have the longbow that can annihilate the enemy thousands of miles away in just a moment! These are me
Zhou Yu~ is committed to his lifelong goal! This ambition will last until death!
