In November, Xia Jun got a billion points this time, but in the navy, these billion points are really nothing, and if you want to build a battleship that is a little bit ahead of the super dreadnought, you have to invest a total of four billion points in technology.

The more advanced super dreadnought battleship is the super battleship, which is a behemoth of five to seventy thousand tons, and if you want to build such a battleship, you need to invest nearly 20 billion points.

For Xia Jun, it is completely bearable to invest in this.

Based on the current billion points a month, it only takes twenty-four months to upgrade the technology to the level of building a super battleship.

That's just two years.

Of course, it is impossible for Xia Jun to invest every month's points in naval technology, which is half at most, so it will take at least five years.

If China is unified as soon as possible, it will not take five years.

Moreover, if these 24 billion points are smashed, the military industry will rise to a very advanced level, and the scientific and technological content of the army and air force will be improved.

However, Xia Jun was not in a hurry to ascend to the super battleship, and the aircraft carrier should have been ascended first. So for the time being, Xia Jun only upgraded the technology of the dreadnought, and then upgraded the technology of the aircraft carrier, and then upgraded the technology of the super battleship.

This month's billion points, Xia Jun first smashed 200 million into the military industry, and once again increased the production capacity of munitions.

For example, the East China Aircraft Factory will increase the number of planes manufactured per day to 80, and 2,400 aircraft can be manufactured in a month, of course, this is a wooden aircraft.

The output of mosquito bombers is only 10 a month, but after a year of accumulation, there can be more than 3,000 units, which is already seriously overnumbered, so there is no need to expand the production capacity of mosquito bombers.

In addition, the production capacity of consumable munitions such as bullets, artillery shells, and bombs has also increased, and with the expansion of non-integral methods, the current arms production capacity of East China's autonomous political axe has surpassed that of the United States.

However, the East China Autonomous Political Axe is still inferior to the United States in terms of overall industrial scale, and the United States' arms production capacity is constantly expanding at this time, and if Xia Jun does not use points to expand production capacity, then it will not be overtaken by the American military industry in a few months.

Therefore, it is necessary to invest some points in the military industry every month, but in the end there is a limit, because the war cannot last forever, and Xia Jun must consider the post-war problems.

After the war, it is obvious that there is no need for so many munitions, unless it is a big war fought by the autonomous government of East China. If the East China Autonomous Government does not fight, then it will be difficult to maintain this scale of the military industry.

In addition, among the 800 million points, Xia Jun originally planned to make a 380mm caliber naval gun first, but there is no need to be in such a hurry to build a naval gun, and there is no problem when the warship is built and rebuilt, and the most important thing now is the issue of starting construction.

So Xia Jun solved the armor problem first, although the German armor was relatively good, but it still did not meet Xia Jun's requirements, but the German armor he changed to, but he saved a point by one, so Xia Jun first invested 500 million points in armor technology to improve the armor technology to the level of the thirties.

However, the super dreadnought battleship still has a gap of 3.5 billion points, and this gap will be filled a little bit every month, and it will be solved in a few months.

Super useless battleships can't be built in a few months, as long as Xia Jun ensures that the technology at the start of construction can keep up, then it's almost the same.

Fix is working with Navy designers on the design and is expected to come up with a design within a month.

…… The arrival of Fix and the design of the opening of the super senseless battleship made the top brass of the Navy very excited, and the chairman of the committee finally made up his mind to build a super senseless ship this time.

Xie Baozhang talked to Fix in detail several times, asked Fix's German design team to design carefully, and explained the key points at the national level to Fix.

The East China Navy built super useless battleships to counter the Allied camp, and if the East China Autonomous Political Axe could not drag the Sayben in Asia, then it was possible for the East China to invest huge forces in Europe. Therefore, the super-dreadnought battleship was about the fate of Germany, and it was also beneficial to Germany.

Xie Baozhang's words fooled Fix into believing it, and in their opinion, it was entirely possible for Sayben to invest a large number of troops in Europe, because Justin had already invested 200,000 troops in Europe, and Justin was one of Germany's enemies at this time.

The East China Autonomous Axe did not think that it would continue to invest many troops in Europe, after all, that was a matter for the Europeans, and it was absolutely unwilling to invest more troops in Europe, and the 200,000 troops invested in Europe this time were entirely out of the political need to win the support of Britain when mediating with the East China Autonomous Axe.

However, this was not the case in the eyes of the Germans, who believed that they had only invested 200,000 troops in Europe, because most of their forces were held back by the axe of the East China Autonomous Government. If the East China Autonomous Government did not send troops when he attacked Jiaozhou Bay, then his forces would not have been pinned down in Shandong, and Germany would have faced great trouble.

The Germans generally have a favorable opinion of the autonomous government in East China.

The same is true of Fix, under Xie Baozhang's emotion and reason, Fix was very serious when designing the super-dreadnought battleship for the East China Navy.

Germany's warship manufacturing technology and design methods are very different from those of the British.

The British Navy pursued speed and firepower, but neglected protection capabilities, as well as improvements in ammunition, horizons, etc.

Germany is different, Germany attaches more importance to the stability of warships, as well as the ability to protect, and does not have such a high pursuit of firepower, but the survivability of German [***] ships at sea is very strong.

For warships, if they can't survive well, then at high speed and firepower, it's just a floating cloud, after all, it is impossible for artillery to hit enemy ships.

In addition, Germany is more interested in the protection of the weak points of warships, such as the protection of ammunition depots, the protection of ships, and the process of ammunition handling.

This is also the main reason why Germany used dreadnought battleships against British super-dreadnought battleships in the Battle of Deland, and still managed to achieve tactical victories despite being at a significant disadvantage in tonnage.

At this time, Germany's warship manufacturing technology had completely surpassed that of Britain, and Yuben's warship manufacturing technology was learned from Britain, which was also inferior to Germany.

The East China Navy's manufacture of super-dreadnought battleships this time not only uses the technology that Germany has surpassed Britain and China, but also Xia Jun will also throw four billion points into it to create more fierce super-dreadnought battleships.

Fix was surprised after fully inspecting the warship manufacturing technology possessed by the East China Autonomous Political Axe, because in terms of power, the technology of the East China Autonomous Political Axe obviously surpassed the technology of Britain, France, Germany and other countries in this era, especially the technology of accelerated gas turbines used by industry and ships, and the thermal efficiency has reached 19%.

The working process of a gas turbine is that the compressor (i.e., the compressor) continuously draws air from the atmosphere and compresses it; The compressed air enters the combustion chamber, mixes with the injected fuel and burns to become high-temperature gas, and then flows into the gas turbine to expand and work, pushing the turbine impeller to rotate with the compressor impeller; The working capacity of the heated high-temperature gas is significantly improved, so the gas turbine still has residual work as the output mechanical work of the gas turbine while driving the compressor.

The working principle of gas turbines is simple, the working method is more rough than that of diesel engines, and there are no restrictions on what fuel oil, as long as it is medium oil, kerosene is the best.

Vessels that use gas turbines can increase their speeds to a very significant extent, but the disadvantage is fuel consumption.

Therefore, the shipbuilding technology of the East China Autonomous Political Axe uses the combined power mode of accelerating the gas turbine and diesel engine, using the diesel engine at low speed and the gas turbine at high speed.

The benefits of using a diesel engine + accelerating a gas turbine are numerous, firstly, it is much faster than a warship using a steam turbine in terms of speed, and secondly, there is no smoke on the warship, and the mention of the power plant is much smaller than that of a steam turbine.

This is a very advanced technology.

In addition, in terms of armor technology, the strength of the model armor technology that Xia Jungang exchanged also shocked Fix, and the strength of this special steel is 1.5 times that of the armor of Germany's current warships.

In terms of naval artillery technology, Germany is currently unable to manufacture 380mm naval guns, but their chairman said that naval guns are not a problem, and provided him with data on 380mm naval guns, which makes Fix generally confident in the design of warships, and no longer has as little confidence as before.

Fix was extremely serious about this design, which was not only a process of designing a super-dreadnought battleship for the East China Autonomous Political Axe, but also a process of seeking experience in building a super-dreadnought battleship for Germany.

With the friendship between Germany and the East China Autonomous Political Axe, when Germany wants to build a super-dreadnought battleship, presumably the East China Autonomous Political Axe will not refuse to sell these advanced technologies to Germany, and when the time comes, coupled with the current design and construction experience, Germany can also build a powerful super-dreadnought battleship.

When Fix was designing the super-dreadnought battleship, he also conducted a detailed study of the Fusang, a super-dreadnought battleship salvaged from the East China Autonomous Political Axe. At the same time, they were also responsible for participating in the modification of the Fuso and Hiei.

In the process of refitting these two big guys, a lot of German technology is needed, and the Germans noticed that the ammunition storage room and ammunition conveyor can also cause ammunition depot fires on the Dogger Sandbank after the First World War, and immediately carried out a closed modification of these two parts, which was needed for the modification of the Fuso and Hiei.

At the same time, it is said that the warship does not have enough protection for the horizontal part of the ship's side and is easy to be killed by torpedoes, so it also needs German side reinforcement technology, and at the same time, it also needs German deck reinforcement technology.

In addition, in terms of signal technology, ranging and night combat equipment, German technology is needed, and these technologies are more advanced than those of the British, and they are also much more advanced than those of the British people.

Judging from the German style, the two warships Fuso and Hiei did not meet their appetite, and in terms of speed and firepower, in addition to being faster than the German warships, they seemed to be stronger in terms of firepower, but the shells used by the naval guns did not have a good delay fuse, which was very likely to cause an explosion as soon as it hit the enemy ship, and it could not cause any damage to the inside of the enemy ship at all, so it could not be said to have an advantage in firepower at all.
