"Chief, is it a bit too much for you to rely on only one kind of torpedo to conquer the world?" Chu Zhaodong doesn't plan to be a fish* Riesling.

Wu Chenxuan didn't refute him, pointing to the table, indicating that the naval battle game between the two had not yet been completed. Chu Zhaodong calmed down and began to command the fleet to counterattack, the first guerrilla fleet began to be arranged in an anti-submarine formation, the destroyers were on the outside, and the battleships were shrunk into a circular arrangement, and at the same time, the fleet minesweepers began to sweep mines in the forward direction. In this way, submarines and mines alone could not stop the pace of the 1st guerrilla fleet. Even if there are losses, once they approach Shanghai, the strategic purpose of the Chinese Navy will be considered a failure.

At the same time, the Second Guerrilla Fleet, with four cutting-edge battleships as the core, had already left Yokosuka and began to move in the direction of the Yellow Sea, and the target was obviously the Qingdao Military Port.

Okinawa's 3rd Guerrilla Fleet, on the other hand, consisted of five Kuma-class light cruisers and a dry destroyer, and these new warships that had just been launched had an advantage in speed. There are a total of 5 ships in the Kuma class, namely the Kuma, Tama, Kitakami, Oi and Kiso, which are organized together and quietly sailed to the south, that is, to sneak attack the Chinese naval base along the coast of Guangdong and Fujian, and take advantage of the advantages in quantity and quality to attack the opponent's important places respectively, attack the enemy and save it, and force the weak enemy to fight a decisive battle, so as to destroy the opponent's living forces.

"Dad, your first guerrilla fleet has been attacked again, the Mikasa has been sunk, the Shikishima has been sunk, the Hatsuse has been slightly injured, the Asahi has been slightly injured, the Iwate has been seriously injured by heavy patrols, and the Izumo has been lightly injured by heavy patrols. The First Guerrilla Fleet was judged to be incapacitated. The other party's losses are slight. ”

"What?" Chu Zhaodong's eyes widened, no wonder he was surprised. Although the old ship more than ten years ago, as the four brothers of the Shikishima-class battleships, the waterline armor belt is 100-230mm, the deck is 50-75mm, the turret is 200-360mm, and the command tower is not bad. Who can sink such a behemoth silently? "Girl, could it be that all his submarines are waiting in this channel, so it is impossible to have such a result?"

"Dad, see for yourself, do you think these old-fashioned tin cans can withstand the attack of a few 250-kilogram armor-piercing aerial bombs, Mikasa was hit by four aerial bombs and three 450mm aerial torpedoes, and Shikishima was hit by five aerial bombs and two torpedoes, so it is strange that they are unsinkable. If you look at these again, the Iwate revisited with one mine and two bombs, and the Hatsuse was hit by three bombs..."

"Wait, you said it's aerial bombs and aerial torpedoes, I remember that the location of the 1st Guerrilla Fleet is still 350 nautical miles from Shanghai, how could your plane appear here?" Chu Zhaodong's eyes were fixed on Wu Chenxuan, as if he wanted him to give a reasonable explanation, otherwise he would not give up.

"Of course, taking off on land is not enough, but what if you take off in the sea?" Wu Chenxuan's smile did not decrease, but Chu Zhaodong couldn't care about this. He looked at the results of the naval battle handed over by his daughter, and silently calculated it.

"No, even if the hit rate is 30%, you can't achieve such a result without 150 sorties." Chu Zhaodong raised his head and said word by word, "Commander-in-chief, do we have aircraft carriers?" ”

"Unfortunately, to date, we do not have an aircraft carrier in the true sense of the word. An aircraft carrier training ship was rebuilt with a 15,000-ton bulk ship, and it is now training in the port of Qingdao. ”

"How many carriers?"

"About forty."

"That's not right, chief. How can these planes take off at sea, and they can't be seaplanes, and what equipment is there that I don't know, is there? Chu Zhaodong's words made Chu Qiannan also wrinkle her nose, thinking about her father's words, it is indeed wrong, in this way, can it be that Chief Wu's order cannot be realized?

"General Chu, you guessed it, it's really not an aircraft carrier, or it's not an aircraft carrier in the usual sense." Wu Chenxuan seemed to be helpless and said, "But limited to the secrecy regulations of the National Defense Force, you are not a core command officer of the Navy, so I can't tell you the specific situation." Actually, you already know a lot, don't you? Then he motioned to the little girl Chu Qiannan, "Continue to deduce." ”

"Chief, I don't think you're revealing this to get me on board, are you?" Chu Zhaodong smiled bitterly and put down the pen and paper. "I'm afraid I'm in the middle of the game now. What are you going to do with our father and daughter, Chief? ”

"It won't endanger Mr. Chu's safety, but in order to protect military secrets, I'm afraid that you and Ling Yan will have to go to the southern mountains of Jinan for a long vacation." Wu Chenxuan's face was calm, without the slightest embarrassment. "There will be a war between China and Japan, and it is imminent, and the optimistic estimate is that it will not take more than six months, and the longest will not be more than a year and a half, and then everything will be no secret, and you will be free again. You can rest assured that we will be responsible for all the needs of life during the period, your property will be properly protected, and Ling Yan's studies will not be interrupted, and we will arrange a special teacher to come to your home to give lectures for Qian Nan. ”

"Thanks to the love of the chief, Jingxiong dares to disobey his fate." Chu Zhaodong understands his own situation, this person set up a trap and waited for himself to drill, and he did not prevent the other party from using his own hobby-naval battle deduction to set up a trap, it was his own cleverness to find the loopholes in the opponent's tactics, now it is okay, the other party used his own problem to tell himself the tactics that the Chinese Navy will use, this is definitely a military secret related to the rise and fall of the country, not to mention house arrest, even if the other party puts their father and daughter in prison, it is reasonable to consider from the perspective of national interests. It's boring to look for yourself if you don't know each other, not to mention that your love for the navy is by no means idle, and being able to command a fleet of the Chinese Navy to fight to the death with an old enemy is the best bait for him.

"I have Jingxiong, the victory of the Chinese Navy is in sight." Wu Chenxuan laughed, took out a document from the document bag handed over by the secretary and handed it to Chu Zhaodong, but he didn't let him open it, "Brother Jingxiong, let's start and finish well, and see how I bury the combined fleet of dog days on this three-foot table." When the decisive battle between China and Japan comes, it will be necessary to rely on Jingxiong and the naval officers and men to fight bravely to suppress the thieves and swagger, and the shame of the first day of the snow. ”

"Okay, so I don't dare to ask for ears."

On the next chart, the smoke of gunpowder was filled with a sea of blood. The Second Guerrilla Fleet was abused by torpedo attack planes from the north and even from behind, and after the protective formation was disrupted, it was the same as mines, submarines, and horizontal bombing, and the Second Fleet left two Ise-class battleships and one Kongo-class battle cruiser to escape with a small life. The third guerrilla fleet was even more miserable, it was blocked in the Taiwan Strait, and a group of torpedo boats rushed out from the Penghu Islands, and for a while they were racing in the face of these old coastal defense ships and former dreadnoughts, and then the bombing of the overwhelming air force planes, these thirty-year-old guys had no anti-submarine and air defense weapons and equipment at all, and they had 260 mm main guns in the air, and they had no defenselessness against underwater submarines and planes in the sky, and if they did not withdraw to the west coast of Taiwan in time, they would have retreated into Kaohsiung with the support of shore firepower. It is estimated that it will also be a total annihilation. Chu Zhaodong looked at the leftovers on the table, if he was the commander of the combined fleet, he would be able to wipe his ribs with wine now.

"Chief, are all these equipment and operators in place?" Chu Zhaodong came back to his senses and hurriedly asked. This is related to whether he Chu Zhaodong can become the key to leading the Chinese Navy to annihilate the Japanese and achieve maritime hegemony, how can he not be nervous?

"General Chu, these equipment are easy to handle, the submarine and speedboat have completed the sea trial mission and officially entered service. The production of torpedo machines is also stepping up, and now it can meet 70% of the equipment needs. You don't have to worry about pilots, the current naval commander Feng Ru is the commander of the Air Force, and when you arrive, Feng Ru will be promoted to the chief of the Navy of the General Staff, and it is still very easy for him to transfer 1,800 pilots from the Air Force. In terms of submarines, retired German Navy personnel are mainly being trained on their behalf, and the Qingdao Maritime Academy has already opened a submarine school, and all submarine officers and non-commissioned officers will complete their training in rotation this year. Only the personnel on the surface ships are relatively lacking, and you may need to go everywhere to make friends, and if there are officers in the Fujian navy that you recognize, you can also join the surface ship force after training. In addition, I will send you a division of officers and men from the coastal areas of the army as a supplementary soldier to fill the shortage of the navy at any time, and also be responsible for the defense of the military port in peacetime. The funding side will also be appropriately tilted, only if you don't plan to get the dumplings of the battleship, it will probably be enough for a while. ”

"The general seat has already considered the navy very thoroughly, and the humble post will do its best to defend our maritime frontier." Chu Zhaodong couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, although such conditions were not the second generation of the Beiyang Naval Division of the cannon giant ships he wanted, but these flying dives were quick to use, and they were definitely a nightmare for the Japanese Combined Fleet in the coastal naval battle, if the Japanese devils didn't come, they might have to be on guard at any time, but if the Japanese devils dared to rely on their naval superiority to harass them along the coast, they would definitely give them a big surprise, and if they didn't leave half of the eight battleships as coral reefs, they couldn't bear the thought that the general seat had just paid.

In fact, in 1907, the little devil put forward the idea of naval armament expansion by the then Minister of Navy, referred to as the "88th Fleet", which usually consisted of eight battleships and eight armored cruisers, and was served by the main battleship with an age of less than 8 years. However, its budget has not been approved. By World War I, this plan of naval expansion was changed to consist of eight battleships and eight battlecruisers.

However, the head of the Chinese Navy, Chu Men set his sights on these big guys of the little devils at the beginning of his tenure, and it is estimated that the fate of the little devils will not be much better, although the United Fleet is now majestic on the sea surface of the Far East, but they will soon understand what is called the new mode of three-dimensional combat in the sea and air, and these behemoths that they tightened their belts and saved money to build are estimated to be greatly more likely to permanently immigrate to Haiti...
