The troops on the island of Taiwan now have no worries. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Yun also put them aside, but before the ironclad ship was built here.

Taiwan may need to be cut off from the mainland again for several years, anyway, Zhang Yun doesn't dare to risk sending a fleet to Taiwan again!

The combined fleets of Britain and the United States have suffered such a big loss, I am afraid that they are now adrift on the sea, waiting for themselves to send them to slap them in the face!

Zhang Yun will not do this kind of behavior of sending his face up and beating others, since you have to wait for Lao Tzu in the sea, Lao Tzu just won't go to the sea, see what can you do?

After sorting out the battle damage, Zhang Yun transferred all the naval ships to the width between Haikou and the Leizhou Peninsula...... Only about one or twenty kilometers to patrol the Qiongzhou Strait.

In short, we must ensure the safety of the Qiongzhou Strait, after all, this is the only connection between Hainan Island and the mainland.

Especially now that the nearby sea has been blocked by the British and American coalition forces, the Qiongzhou Strait is Zhang Yun's only lifeline, and he will never allow anyone to dare to make trouble here!

The next step, of course, is to start building ironclad ships immediately, Zhang Yun's initial plan was to let those shipwrights first build a batch of wooden-hulled warships to exercise experience, and then build a smaller ironclad ship to further exercise experience.

Until finally, when everything is ripe, build a George V, Pact-type dreadnought-class battleship, so that nothing can go wrong in a step-by-step manner. But now the plans can't keep up with the changes!

John Bull and the western cowboys are searching the waters of the East China Sea and the South China Sea for information about their fleet, hoping for revenge.

They are even more eager to attack their own seafaring capabilities and attempt to dominate the whole of East Asia.

Of course, Zhang Yun can't tolerate this kind of behavior of theirs, a country has no coastal defense, or there is no sea defense!

It was a very painful thing, and now Zhang Yun has experienced this kind of pain, some seas dare not go out, some ships dare not open, all warships and cargo ships have to hide in the harbor, and they dare not go out at all, for fear of being hit by others.

Zhang Yun hated this kind of rat-like behavior very much, but the situation is stronger than people, John Bull is just going to bully himself, Zhang Yun has no choice, his skills are not as good as others, he can only be beaten......

Fortunately, Zhang Yun still has a chance to turn the tables, the George V treaty-type, dreadnought-class battleship, all its drawings have been given by Zhang Yun to the old shipwrights, hoping that they can develop them......

It was with this idea that Zhang Yun and Tie Niu came to the shipyard again today, with the support of a large amount of steel, and on the premise that they responded to the needs of those old shipwrights.

At this time, there was already a huge steel battleship more than 200 meters long lying in the No. 1 dock, but the old shipwrights had no experience in building this kind of ship at all, which led to their lack of confidence, and even did not believe that this steel battleship could float on the water.

Helpless, Zhang Yun didn't listen to anyone's persuasion at all, just let them design and build according to the drawings, fortunately, the emperor lived up to his painstaking efforts, and now, the keel of this ship has been laid......

Seeing this, Zhang Yun said to Tie Niu: "Most of the hull structure has been laid, just waiting for you to design the main gun, Ben Shuai's requirement is that you don't need to follow the complex design on the design drawings,"

"You only need to design a 380 mm caliber 52 barrel main gun, and a company of ten guns to be used as the main guns of this battleship."

"As for the other messy secondary guns on the drawings, you only need to design a 30mm caliber secondary gun to attack torpedoes, and the rest don't need to be built completely according to the messy designs on the drawings!"

Tie Niu heard the words and said: "Dashuai, what you mean, the subordinates understand, but the subordinates have different opinions, first of all, the number of this kind of giant cannon, the subordinates think that it can be increased to twelve." ”

"Because my subordinates and these old shipwrights have carefully studied the design drawings and found that if all these messy secondary guns are removed,"

"This battleship can be equipped with twelve 380 giant guns, and with a certain number of 30 mm caliber anti-torpedo guns, the same effect can be achieved as on this design drawing."

"I don't know, what do you think?"

After listening to Tie Niu's words, to be honest, Zhang Yun was very surprised, he couldn't imagine that Tie Niu could draw inferences from one another, thinking of things he hadn't thought of, this is amazing!

After all, no matter how smart he is, Tie Niu is also a person of this era, including these old shipwrights from Fujian, they are the same, and they are not from the afterlife of the information explosion.

Therefore, Tie Niu has this insight, which can be regarded as very remarkable!

Zhang Yun simply took this drawing over and looked at it carefully, and the more he pondered it, the more he felt that what Tie Niu said made sense, combined with Tie Niu's opinion, Zhang Yun had a new idea about this and the ironclad battleship.

First of all, Zhang Yun wanted to adopt the Iron Bull's statement, that is, to design the gun into twelve 380 mm caliber guns, and then divide it into four turrets, using the technology of triple assembly.

In this way, when the navy uses a salvo of the main guns, it can take turns to fire three guns first, divided into four times, and one salvo can be completed.

And in terms of the power of this 380 mm caliber naval gun, as long as one hit, no warship in this era can stop it.

You must know that the main gun with a caliber of 380 mm caliber and 52 times the barrel, its shell weighs nearly a ton, and the length of the same barrel is close to 20 meters, and its shell power is if it is on land......

A cannonball goes down, and in a place the size of a football field, there is no way to live people, unless you hide in a group of reinforced concrete and soil permanent fortifications that are more than three meters thick, and you may be able to escape with your life.

But even so, I'm afraid you'll be left with a lifetime of illness and all kinds of terrible sequelae!

So to use this kind of artillery, to fight against the warships of the Western powers of this era, it is not necessary to directly hit their ships.

All it takes is for the shell to explode near their ship, and its shock wave can directly shock the personnel on the enemy ship to internal bleeding and gradually make the personnel on the enemy ship lose their combat effectiveness......

Of course, Zhang Yun didn't ask them to aim with the naked eye, but during the construction process of this battleship, Zhang Yun would put the gun aiming radar on the battleship.

In this way, these twelve 380 mm 52 times the caliber of the main gun can exert their terrifying combat effectiveness.

Although its ultimate attack distance is about thirty or forty kilometers, Zhang Yun's requirements for it are not so high, as long as it is assisted by artillery sighting radar, naval soldiers can use it to attack target ships more than ten kilometers away......

And it can still guarantee a certain success rate, so that Zhang Yun will wake up with a smile even if he is in a dream!

At that time, it will not need much, and the naval forces of the Patriotic Army with only such a battleship will be enough to dominate the entire Pacific Ocean.

At that time, the so-called empire where the sun never sets, if they dare to come over and be arrogant again, Zhang Yun will definitely be able to beat them out.

After everything was decided, Zhang Yun took Tie Niu down to the dock and told the boatwrights about his and Tie Niu's new ideas......
