While the Senate was discussing the rights and interests of the senators, the Admiralty was also discussing the construction of the navy.

After the end of the Far East War, the territory, population, and sea area of East China have undergone great changes, so the military scale and the establishment of the army before the war are obviously no longer suitable for the security needs of East China, and the naval and land armies need to be reorganized. However, now Russia has not yet succumbed, the army still has combat missions, and it cannot begin to reorganize, but the combat mission of the navy at this time is basically over, and all that remains is to withdraw the troops from the capital, so the military commission decided that the navy should first carry out reorganization, and required the reorganization of the navy not only to be based on the needs of the current situation in East China, but also to consider the needs after the reunification of the country in the future.

The reorganization of the navy is mainly divided into two parts, one is the shipbuilding plan within this five-year cycle. Before the Far East War, East China built a 12,000-ton battleship, a 10,000-ton armored cruiser, and built a number of 6-7,000-ton cruisers, but after the start of the Far East War, it was necessary to concentrate resources on the war, and the cost of large warships was huge, and the construction period was too long, so all large and medium-sized warships were stopped, and now there are only a few destroyers of about 1,000 tons under construction.

Of course, there is another very important reason why large and medium-sized warships have not been built, that is, the warships captured in the previous wars are also being repaired, and the current docks and slipways are basically occupied. In fact, the scale of the KPA Navy is not small, with a total of 8 battleships and 9 armored cruisers, and because the Japanese and Russian navies have been severely damaged, the size of the KPA Navy can now rank among the top 5 in the world. However, most of the warships of the KPA Navy are captured enemy warships, which is extremely rare in the development of the navies of various countries, because it is extremely difficult to capture enemy warships in modern naval warfare.

However, the navy of East China mainly relies on 5 modern warships to support the field, and the attack is also based on the first. The ** attack is mainly based on volleying the deck, which can destroy a large number of buildings above the deck and ship-borne artillery, even if it is habitually pierced through the deck, but the damage to the part below the waterline is not large, unless it happens to hit the ammunition depot and causes a martyrdom, which naturally creates conditions for the People's Army Navy to capture enemy warships.

However, it is obviously not a long-term solution to only capture enemy warships, and now that the ** of 5 modern warships has basically been wiped out, there will be no chance of such large-scale capture of enemy warships in the future, so it is still necessary to rely on your own manufacturing. However, in the first 5-year plan, East China ** set up two shipyards in Qingdao and Tianjin, and now they have been counted as having complete facilities, and they have not accumulated experience and skilled workers by ships, and after the Far East War, East China ** has received a huge amount of reparations, and there are enough funds to show their strength in these five years, of course, first of all, to formulate a ship-building plan.

The second is the distribution and arrangement of the fleet. Before the Far East War, the coastline controlled by East China was not long, so the People's Army Navy did not divide the fleet, but divided it into squads according to the type of ships, with 4-6 warships per squad, and they were stationed in Qingdao, Tianjin, Weihai, Yantai and other coastal node ports in peacetime.

However, now the coastline controlled by East China has been from Vladivostok to Shanghai, more than 2,000 kilometers long, and then to the pre-war unified stationing, wartime combination model is obviously not suitable, and in the Far East War, the People's Army Navy captured a large number of warships, and is ready to show its strength, self-built warships, the size of the fleet will naturally be further expanded, so it is also necessary to divide the fleet and allocate the berthing arrangement.

The third is the establishment of the Marine Corps. Although there have been rumors that the Marine Corps will become an independent army since the day the Marine Corps was established, it is obvious that the CMC has no intention of forming the Marine Corps into a separate army, so the Marine Corps is still a part of the Navy, but the CMC has also made a requirement, that is, the Marine Corps must have the ability to dispatch quickly and fight independently. This also means that in addition to landing ships, the Marine Corps should also have combat warships under its own command.

This is also the experience summed up in the Far Eastern War, in which the Marine Corps made many sorties, but the warships that served as escorts, fire cover, and support were temporarily deployed and combined by the Admiralty, but in the landing battle, it also exposed the problems of unfamiliar coordination between the Marine Corps and the fleet, the inconvenience of command and dispatch, and the coordination between the troops and the fleet after landing.

Since it has now acquired Borneo in East China, it has extended its influence into Southeast Asia, and there are many islands in this area, so it is possible for the Marines to take on more combat missions after they are killed. However, due to the fact that the garrison strength in Southeast Asia is not strong, it is indeed not very convenient for the Marine Corps to deploy fleet combinations every time it is dispatched, and the Marine Corps has escort warships and fire support warships under its own command, so it is much more convenient.

However, at present, the Marine Corps is still in Japan, waiting for Japan to pay the war reparations before it can be withdrawn, so the establishment of the Marine Corps does not need to be considered for the time being, but the Military Commission requires the Navy to reserve a part of the tonnage of warships for the Marine Corps when formulating the shipbuilding plan.

Originally, Shang Jinfeng entrusted Wang Hailong to formulate a shipbuilding plan, because Wang Hailong was the commander of the fleet, and he should know how many warships the navy needed, while he focused on the establishment and layout of the fleet.

A week later, Wang Hailong came up with a shipbuilding plan named the "88th Fleet": that is, to build four 20,000-ton dreadnoughts, four 25,000-ton super-dreadnoughts, a total of eight battleships, four 1.6-ton armored cruisers, four 22,000-ton battle cruisers, and 10 Qingzhou-class cruisers, 16 Dongchang-class cruisers, and 36 destroyers.

But this plan was severely criticized by Shang Jinfeng, because this plan was too unrealistic, and Xia Bohai and Qin Zheng, who are now in charge, are both from the navy and know the situation of the navy very well, so it will only be boring to hand over this plan. In fact, if this plan is handed over, it will not be able to reach Xia Bohai and Qin Zheng at all, and even Xiao Jianjun will not be able to pass this level.

In fact, Wang Hailong also knows that his plan is unrealistic, his idea is very simple, this army establishment, actually determines the division of military spending of the navy and army in the next five years, and now the reorganization of the army has not yet begun, the navy rarely occupies a first hand, so of course it is necessary to report a little more, and the navy is asking for a price, so that the executive Yuan can go to the place to fight back.

Shang Jinfeng also understood Wang Hailong's intentions, but the problem is that the price is really boundless, and it far exceeds the current construction capacity of East China, and it took Japan 10 years to build a "66 fleet". I also regretted it a little in my heart, I shouldn't have handed this matter over to Wang Hailong, although Wang Hailong was a good hand at commanding the fleet to fight, but his IQ dropped a little when he did other things.

In desperation, Shang Jinfeng could only start another stove, and finally worked out a five-year shipbuilding plan, and today's meeting was to discuss the navy's establishment plan within the navy.

At the beginning of the meeting, Shang Jinfeng first asked Huang Ji to introduce the current shipbuilding capability of East China, and emphasized that he should only talk about the problems, not the achievements, because the achievements have been said too much, and let the people of the Admiralty know what the current level of shipbuilding in East China is.

Now Huang Ji is a naval lieutenant, the director of the technical department of the Naval Equipment Department, and the representative of the shipyard, and he is also married, and his wife is from a broken scholarly disciple, but Bi Jing has received a good education since he was a child, has a gentle personality, and his appearance is also good, at least at the upper middle level. Although Huang Ji's figure has not changed much, he is still a fat man, but his mental temperament is very different from the previous otaku.

Huang Ji stood up and said: "At present, there are three major problems in our shipbuilding capabilities, one is that the accumulation of our shipbuilding technology is insufficient. So far, we have only built two 10,000-ton warships, namely a cadre-class battleship and a Chitu-class armored cruiser, but the largest is only 12,000 tons, and they are all completed under the guidance of German engineers, although theoretically speaking, we have the ability to independently build cadre-class battleships or Chitu-class armored cruisers, and even can be enlarged, but it is not appropriate to put too large, the technical department believes that the new warships should not exceed 15,000 tons, and the ideal is to control about 14,000 tons, which is the most in line with our current technical level。 ”

Wang Hailong obviously did a lot of homework in order to formulate the shipbuilding plan, so he immediately said: "In the old time and space, Germany jumped from the 13,000-ton Deutschland-class to the 18,000-ton Nassau class at once, why can't we do leapfrog development." ”

Huang said: "Our current industrial level can not be compared with Germany, now Germany is the world's first industrial power, armor, boilers, artillery level is the first in the world, and has a large number of skilled and experienced workers and technicians, what is lacking is only the concept of the navy, and the design level of warships, and before the construction of the Nassau class, Germany has built no less than 20 10,000-ton warships, and now our workers only have 4 or 5 years of work experience. The technology can be regarded as passable, and the technicians are even rarer, and they only have the experience of building two 10,000-ton warships, and the only thing that is stronger than Germany is the ability to design warships, so we cannot be compared with us with Germany's leapfrog shipbuilding development. Now it is still time to develop in a down-to-earth and gradual manner. In fact, in the past five years, we have gone from nothing to being able to build 10,000-ton warships, and this development speed is actually overspeeding. ”

Shang Jinfeng hurriedly said: "Everyone knows the results, so there is no need to say more, the focus is to talk about problems and problems." ”

Wang Hailong muttered in a low voice: "Okay, then let's be smaller." ”
