Chapter 31: Zhang Lin's Plan

After a busy day, Zhang Lin finally finished taking care of the aftermath of the fallen soldiers, and had been thinking about how to end the war, but the premise was that he must have strong strength, and these must form an indestructible fleet, thinking of this, Zhang Lin thought of the arms dealer, so first go to find a strong arms dealer and see if he can build the warships that appear on the earth!

Zhang Lin went to Tang Jie and directly explained his intention, Tang Jie was a little surprised when he heard Zhang Lin's words, "What are you looking for an arms dealer for?" ”

"I want to see if there are any more powerful warships, and I want to know about some new warships, so as not to suffer losses in the future!" It is impossible for Zhang Lin to completely tell Tang Jie what he really thinks in his heart, this matter must be kept secret, and the rumors must not be leaked, and Zhang Lin of the Lance Empire can't stay, the Reagan family and the Edward family look forbearant on the surface, but secretly there will definitely be small moves, and their safety here cannot be guaranteed!

"Well, I'll take you to an arms dealer, he should have a lot of newly designed warships there, you can go and check it out!" Tang Jie took Zhang Lin to the western suburbs of the imperial capital, Tang Jie was very curious all the way, but Zhang Lin smiled and said nothing, so that Tang Jie had no choice!

In the western suburbs of the bustling imperial capital, there are beautiful private villas everywhere, and all the wealthy merchants of Reims live here, and without a certain status and money, they can't buy villas here!

The car stopped in front of a manor, "This is the home of a big arms dealer, you go in, I'll wait for you outside." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Tang Jie said to Zhang Lin.

"Okay, I'll be fine soon, I just want some data on the new warship, it won't be too long!" After Zhang Lin finished speaking, he got out of the car and walked to the door of the luxury manor, and knocked lightly on the door, "Wait a minute, I'll open the door for you!" ”

Zhang Lin waited outside the door, and in less than a minute, the door opened, and a funny-looking fat man poked his head out, "May I ask who is Mr. looking for?" ”

"I'm looking for Mr. Smith, is he there?" Zhang Lin asked

"I am, you are?" Smith looked quite suspicious, and he didn't know what Zhang Lin was looking for him.

"That's the case, my name is Zhang Lin, I have a little business to talk to you about, don't you know how convenient?"

Smith looked at Zhang Lin carefully, a little strange: "You are the Zhang Lin who is rumored to be very capable of fighting?" Come in. Smith invited Zhang Lin into the house, Zhang Lin was stunned by the scene in front of him when he came in, the manor planted dozens of precious mahogany trees in an orderly manner, their rare flowers and plants were planted on the side of the road at will, no one seemed to take care of it, the floor of the path was paved with white jade, everything was so luxurious!

Smith led the way in front, and kept looking at Zhang Lin's expression, Zhang Lin followed Smith expressionlessly, and couldn't help but let Smith take a look, many customers were shocked by his manor when they came to talk to him about business, and kept praising him, and Zhang Lin didn't say anything about all this!

When he came to the door of the villa, Zhang Lin was shocked again, the whole villa was dominated by a white tone, take a closer look, it turned out that there was white jade pasted on it, the mahogany door of the villa was inlaid with gold edges, and the windows were also golden, Zhang Lin thought that at least it was inlaid with gold, the carpet at the door was the most precious hand-protected carpet from the Blue Moon Empire, and the exquisite pattern symbolized its origin, after entering the villa, the entire living room was this kind of carpet, and the furniture was the most precious mahogany, and these antiques were placed on the cabinet at will. The walls are covered with paintings and calligraphy by famous artists.

"You may be seated!" Smith asked Zhang Lin to sit on the sofa in the living room and asked someone to serve him tea, "I wonder what Mr. Zhang Lin is looking for?" "Smith is very strange, before the Lance Empire purchased arms, people from the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of the Military came together, and at this time, Zhang Lin alone should not have come on behalf of Lance, Zhang Lin's intelligence in the imperial capital is still very clear!

"Mr. Smith, could you please show me the ship you sold, and of course I will definitely buy it if I'm satisfied." Zhang Lin went straight to the point and directly explained his intentions, he wanted to know the gap between the current world and the earth's ship-building technology during World War II.

Smith got up, took out a booklet from the cabinet behind him, and handed it to Zhang Lin, "This is a ship with mature technology at present, you can take a look!" ”

Zhang Lin took the booklet and looked through it carefully, the first page was a search of photos taken by the battleship from different angles, and the second page was some basic data of the battleship.

Victory-class battleship: 215 meters long, 32 meters wide, 9.6 meters draft, standard displacement 39,000 tons, full load displacement 45,000 tons, maximum displacement 49,000 tons, main armor belt 380 mm, mine protection drum 32 mm, mine protection wall compartment 45 mm, main gun mount installed 410 mm. The main gun base is installed 450 mm, SK40 triple 380 mm 45 times the caliber ratio of the main turret three, according to the front two and one rear configuration layout, Const 1005 mm twin high-level dual-purpose secondary guns, Guardian 145 mm high-level dual-purpose secondary guns 10, Browning 60 mm twin air guns eight, Const 40 mm single anti-aircraft guns 10, Const 20 mm rapid-fire air guns 10, the use of high-speed light armor-piercing shells, bullet weight 850 kg, charge 32 kg, The high-explosive incendiary bomb weighed 700 kg and had a charge of 70 kg. The reloading speed of the main gun of the company, the reloading time of the automatic loader of twenty-five seconds, the maximum rate of fire of four rounds per minute (warning that the barrel of the main gun will be seriously damaged) The maximum range of the main gun is thirty kilometers, the effective range is twenty-one kilometers, and the range of the secondary gun is fifteen kilometers! The engine power is 120,000 horsepower, the maximum speed is 25 knots, and the endurance is 15 knots and 9,000 nautical miles.

The level of this battleship is probably equivalent to the treaty-type battleships of the Navy Holiday after World War I, which is relatively close to the North Carolina-class battleships built by the United States at that time, but the performance is even worse than that of North Carolina.

"Mr. Smith, with all due respect, is there a better battleship than this battleship?" Zhang Lin has a rough determination of the performance of this battleship, it is a battleship with a balanced attack and defense, but the ability to vent is slightly weak!

"This is the best battleship with mature technology, and the others are still in the theoretical and practical stage, and they are relatively prone to failure, so the sales are not very ideal, and this battleship is purchased by most countries, and its performance is still guaranteed!" Smith didn't understand, this was already a perfect battleship, why Zhang Lin didn't look very satisfied!

"Sir, please forgive me for saying that the three-hundred-eighty mm high-speed light armor-piercing projectile has a good armor-piercing effect at close range, but the armor-piercing effect at long range is very poor, I think you should know, can't your company produce a four-hundred-six-millimeter main gun, if the marked displacement of this battleship is expanded to forty-five thousand tons, and the main gun is replaced with fifty times the caliber than the four-hundred-and-six-mm triple main gun, I think it is much better than this battleship!" Zhang Lin said a little bit about the data of the Iowa-class battleship on the earth, and he felt that this battleship was very moldable, and it could be converted into a powerful and high-speed battleship like the Iowa-class!
