Chapter 544: Linjiang Manor Meeting
However, although the 200-mm 25-caliber naval guns are extremely powerful, the overall number of armaments is still relatively small, and the real large-scale naval guns are actually 150-mm and 30-caliber naval guns.
Strictly speaking, this naval gun is the main naval gun of the current Daheng Unification Army Navy, and the number of equipment is relatively large.
It is used as a secondary gun in large-tonnage warships and as a main gun in small- and medium-tonnage warships.
As for several other small-caliber naval guns, although the number of equipment is relatively large, in fact, the navy has always been not very satisfied, especially the 100-mm naval guns.
This thing seems to be very mature in technology, and because the 100-mm 30-fold naval gun improved from the army's 100-mm cannon, the production line of the army's 100-mm cannon can be used in the common part of the army's 100-mm cannon, and the cost is relatively low.
Therefore, at the beginning of this artillery, the navy had high hopes for this, and the number of early equipment was relatively large, which was used as the secondary gun of the main battleship or the main gun of the small-tonnage battleship.
Now, the navy has completely stopped purchasing this naval gun, and even some of the original equipment has been dismantled, modified and used by the army, and replaced with 120 mm naval guns.
This 120 mm 25 times naval gun, although it is also a bit scum, and the navy is also not satisfied, but it can still be used, and the caliber is larger.
In the same situation, there is also a 75 mm 20 times naval gun, this thing just looks at the double diameter, you know, it is an army 75 mm 20 times field gun, and after a slight improvement, it will be used as a naval gun.
This thing is also not easy to use, but the 75 mm caliber gun is only an auxiliary artillery for the navy, and it can barely be used, and the navy can't ask for too much, after all, this thing is very cheap......
Therefore, if you really talk about it, in fact, only the 200 mm 25 times caliber naval guns and the 150 mm 30 times the caliber naval guns are the special naval guns for the navy.
The caliber is large, and the body tube is long!
Of course, the price is also very expensive!
As for several other small and medium-caliber naval guns, they were all changed from army field guns, which are not very suitable for naval use, and they are used now because there is no way.
After the navy re-equipped these breech-loading rifled guns on a large scale, the firepower has been greatly improved, which has played a huge role in the navy's subsequent maintenance of sea transportation lines, assisting the army in attacking Jingzhou, Gaoqing Prefecture and other coastal states, and subsequently sending the river fleet to cooperate with the army to go north.
After seeing that the navy was ready, Lin Ziran did not hesitate to praise himself, and encouraged the officers and men of the navy before leaving Luo Navy Port.
On 8 May, Lin Ziran convened a military and political meeting in Luohaicheng, which was attended by high-ranking generals of the army and civilian officials of various ministries in the marshal's palace.
To be precise, the upcoming Northern Expedition!
During the meeting, Lin Ziran demanded that the army and navy make comprehensive preparations, and at the same time, he also demanded that all government affairs departments cooperate well, and that the finance department should ensure that funds are properly secured, and that no matter what method is used, it must ensure the payment of salaries to the officers and men and the procurement of weapons and ammunition.
The Ministry of Industry must conscientiously do a good job in the production of national defense products in the state-controlled enterprises under its control, and the production of military supplies such as weapons, ammunition, and military uniforms must be guaranteed in quality and quantity.
The Ministry of Communications should coordinate inland river transportation and railway transportation to ensure the transportation of military supplies and the transportation of civilian materials.
In order to better coordinate the production and transportation of the military industry, the original 'National Defense Production Committee' was reorganized into the 'Wartime Production Committee', which gave full control over the raw materials, production, transportation, and deployment of all kinds of military supplies and civilian materials, so as to ensure the supply of military supplies and civilian resources.
In short, the purpose of this meeting is to ensure that while maintaining the front-line troops' operations, it is also necessary to maintain the stability of the people's livelihood in the rear.
It can't be said that in order to fight, the people's livelihood in the rear doesn't care, in this way, maybe the front is fighting, and there will be an uprising in the back, and the Daheng people play uprising, which is all traditional.
However, it cannot be said that in order to protect the people's livelihood, we will not care about fighting.
The purpose of stabilizing people's livelihood is to fight a better war, and the relationship between the two cannot be reversed.
Therefore, the task of the follow-up wartime production committee was very heavy, and the officials in the committee also included important military and political officials.
After the wartime production meeting, Lin Ziran was rarely idle, because in the past few months, Lin Ziran had done almost everything he had to do.
If there is anything that he still needs to do in person, then it is when the time is ripe and the preparations are completely completed to issue a formal combat order.
Beginning on May 9, he was in Linjiang Manor for several days, during which he did not deal with too many government affairs, but accompanied his new wife Meng Yuling, read books, took a walk, and looked like a leisure life.
But everyone knows that this is nothing more than the calm before the storm.
Even Meng Yuling knew that the current calm was just an illusion, and it was actually cloudy outside, and the downpour would come at any time.
Now her husband looks casual and calm, but he is afraid that he can't be calm in his heart, and as a woman from an aristocratic family, Meng Yuling's political consciousness is passable, and she knows that her husband is now under pressure beyond ordinary people.
So in the past few days, Meng Yuling has behaved differently from an ordinary newlywed wife, not coquettish or anything like that, but more like a wife who has lived with Lin Ziran for many years, just quietly accompanying Lin Ziran.
accompanied him through this seemingly peaceful, but stormy day.
On May 15, in the huge conference room in the manor, a group of senior generals of the Daheng Unification Army gathered, most of these generals had serious expressions, and no one exchanged heads, especially Wu Guanlin, who was sitting on the top seat, with his eyes slightly closed, and his hands on his knees, while on the table in front of him was a bulging briefcase.
In the huge conference room, there were nearly 20 high-ranking generals sitting on both sides of the large rectangular table, all of whom were above the rank of junior secretary, some of whom were the chief officers of various departments of the army and navy headquarters, and some were the chief officers of the army and navy units stationed in Luohai City, as well as the division commanders of the garrison divisions.
At this time, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and before anyone could enter, a voice was heard: "The marshal has arrived!" ”
Suddenly, the generals in the conference room stood up in unison!
