Chapter 850: The Confusion of the Krulls

"At the same time, considering the difficulty of filming and the relatively remote location selection, we actually did not take a picture of the entire Quping Port, that is, there must be more new battleships of this type in the rest of the berths in Quping Port!"

"According to the oral report of our intelligence officer, who has invested heavily in development, at the most time, he saw at least six of these new types of multi-main gun battleships in the harbor, all of which were warships of more than 10,000 tons, and he also told us that the first appearance of this new type of battleship was in the summer of last year!"

"This means that at least three years ago, or even four years ago, Heng Barbarian was secretly starting to build this new type of warship, and kept it strictly secret, starting last summer, they began to serve a large warship of 10,000 tons with multiple main guns, and last winter, they began to serve a large 20,000-ton battleship with multiple main guns!"

A photo is that the new generation of Ning Yu battleship, which has kept the Daheng Empire secret for a long time, was exposed in front of the Krull Kingdom.

But, although it has been exposed, but for a while, many people here can't even understand why the Daheng people want to build this kind of multi-main gun battleship?

Once a retired admiral, the new Prime Minister of the Kingdom, Jonah Broad, looked at the photos for a long time, and then took the three-dimensional diagram drawn by the intelligence officers based on the photos for a long time, and then asked a question that everyone was concerned about: "Why do they deploy so many first-class main guns?" ”

Broad is a naval admiral, he is very familiar with naval warships, this time after seeing the new warship of the Great Heng people, only the 300 mm caliber main gun and the 120 mm caliber secondary gun, he wondered, why do these Daheng people pile up so many main guns on the battleship?

"Even their naval guns are good, but they are definitely not better than ours, which means that the rate of fire of their main guns is unlikely to exceed ours at 1.5 rounds per minute, and this rapid-fire is not enough in battle!"

"Didn't our researchers report that the rate of fire of the main gun is still too slow, so the second stage of the main gun is needed for fire replenishment?"

The question of Prime Minister Broader is also the question of many of the admirals of others.

At this time, Admiral Claure, chairman of the Technical Committee of the Kingdom Navy, spoke: "Actually, we have also considered concentrating more main guns on the battleship before, after all, more large-caliber main guns are more powerful, but we have found too many problems in the follow-up, mainly because the rate of fire of the main guns is too slow and the amount of ammunition projected is too small!" ”

"Although the main gun is powerful, it is difficult to effectively threaten the enemy's fast warships when the rate of fire is too slow!"

In addition, it is also worth noting that in the past two years, the third-class and second-class cruisers and even destroyers of various countries have appeared large-scale and armored driven, and the main guns of thousands or even tens of thousands of tons of fast warships are still not enough, and the main guns below the caliber of 150 millimeters are not enough."

"In the event of an engagement, the enemy's rapid formation can completely carry out intensive rapid-fire artillery fire and fire torpedoes on our battleships within a distance of three or four thousand meters in a short period of time!"

"And just equipped with large-caliber naval guns on the battleship, it is simply impossible to effectively intercept the rapid assault of these fast battleships!"

"In this case, we must need a rapid-fire gun of inferior caliber to supplement the firepower against a large number of armored cruisers of all types, large cruisers, and large destroyers!"

The appearance of the mixed main gun battleship, although it appeared in the Daheng Empire at the beginning, belonged to Lin Ziran, but in fact, it was carried forward in the Krull Kingdom.

And in the kingdom of Krull, it was decided to vigorously develop mixed main gun battleships, which were also tested and demonstrated by strict prohibition.

Based on various circumstances, they finally decided that a battleship with mixed main guns was the best solution.

However, now they suddenly found that the Daheng people did not play the mixed main gun, and began to unify the large-caliber main gun scheme, which made them blind.

I don't understand this!

After thinking about it, they all felt that such a ten-gun design was a very nonsense design, and it seemed that there were ten main guns, but the actual combat effectiveness was not as good as that of a mixed main gun battleship.

This group of people discussed for a long time, all kinds of puzzles and all kinds of confusion.

But there is one thing that everyone can be very sure of, that is, there must be a reason for the Heng Barbarian to build such a multi-main gun battleship.

And there is only one reason, that is, Heng Barbarian thinks that this kind of multi-main gun battleship is better than a mixed main gun battleship, and the combat effectiveness is more funny.

So they don't wonder about the necessity of this kind of multi-main gun battleship, in fact, when the meeting was in progress, they had already passed a simple resolution, that is, the construction plan of the new type of battleship should be changed, and how to change it?

How else can you change it and make it ten main guns!

Simply building a battleship with ten main guns is not at all technically difficult for the industrial system of the Krull Kingdom.

Although they still don't understand how to exert their combat effectiveness after this thing is created, and they don't understand what Heng Barbarian's brain thinks, it doesn't matter.

The important thing is that the new warships that the Heng Barbarians have, they also want to have, and there are more.

As for what it is used for, whether it can be used or not, we will talk about it later.

After all, the principle of naval competition is very simple, that is, I have what the enemy does not have, and I have what the enemy has, and I must have more and better than the enemy.

Therefore, the decision to build multi-main gun battleships is not a problem, and it is not even the main topic of this meeting, but the topic of this meeting is: how to make these multi-main gun battleships play their due combat effectiveness!

After all, if you don't find the right way to use it, it's useless to just have a battleship with ten main guns!

This group of people pondered for a long time and had no clue, and finally delegated the task to those experts to ponder, and at the same time, it was also for the intelligence department to increase their efforts to see if they could get relevant information from the mouths of Daheng people.

Anyway, you have to know why the Daheng people want to build this multi-main gun battleship, as long as you know why they built these battleships, then you will know their motives, and after the motives are there, you can also guess and then determine the direction.

Not to mention, the intelligence department of the Krull Kingdom was not lazy, and after they couldn't make a breakthrough from the direction of personnel, they simply changed their way and went to secretly look at the secret sea training of the Daheng Navy, and then tried to see some signs from the sea training of the Daheng people.

After learning that the Daheng Navy had blocked a sea area outside Jingzhou Bay for training, they got a submarine in advance, although this submarine is very primitive, but it can also have basic mobility.

The submarine lay in ambush in this sea area for three days, and then saw the closed sea training of the Daheng Navy.

This look, and then they are dumbfounded!

Those Daheng multi-main gun battleships were conducting artillery training, and to their dumbfounded, they searched and searched but couldn't find their shelling targets.

There must be a goal, but they can't see it!

And what does that mean?

This means that the artillery targets of the Great Hengren Navy during training are in the sea from far, far away......

These Daheng people are conducting ultra-long-distance artillery training!
