Chapter 3, Didi Horn, the old driver set off

"So Britain just doesn't agree to sell?" Lu Qiang crossed his hands and said. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Yes, that's what the monkey call said." Hu Zhuang sat opposite Lu Qiang and said.

That's right, it was the monkeys who were sent to the UK to negotiate, and Xiao Qi and the Wild Boy Special Combat Team were also sent over as a protection team.

"Since they want to wait and see, let's let them wait and see." Lu Qiang snorted.

"But boss, how come the Indonesia that I bought hasn't been resolved?" Hu Zhuang hesitated, he didn't understand why Lu Qiang wanted to buy Australia when Indonesia had not yet made a decision.

"This is not in a hurry, let the little devil jump for a while." Lu Qiang raised his hand and said, saying that we won't talk about this issue first.

"Navy? That's a problem! "Hu Zhuang directly thought of the navy, in fact, it is also the problem of the navy, if the navy can keep up, Lu Qiang would have gone south a long time ago, how can he stay here, the factory or something has been stopped because of the demolition, and the research and development of weapons has also stopped, which is a great loss for Lu Qiang.

Therefore, going south as soon as possible to stabilize is Lu Qiang's primary goal now.

Although the fleet has not yet been fully formed, there is still some time before it goes south, but Lu Qiang is now discussing whether to print mud or attack Australia first. The printing clay is very demanding for the navy, after all, the printing clay is an island. If you want to fight Australia, it is too far away, and there is Indonesia in the middle, and when you pass through Indonesia, you will inevitably have to fight with the Japanese army, and there are more Chinese in Indonesia than in Australia, and it is easy to recruit soldiers.

However, Australia has a large territory, and Lu Qiang's 25 divisions can be directly put on it for unified command. If you take Australia first, and then come to India, it is much simpler, and Australia is rich in minerals and suitable for development.

In Southeast Asia, Japan's navy only has some warships in maintenance, because the fleets of European and American countries in Southeast Asia have all been destroyed, and now Southeast Asia is like Japan's backyard, so as long as some warships are left to watch their homes, the other warships have been transferred to fight with the American fleet, and as a result, both have come back with a loss, and they are currently queuing up in various ports for maintenance and repair.

Therefore, there are not many warships in Southeast Asia now, and if Lu Qiang hits all his warships, he is not afraid, but for the Japanese aircraft carriers, they have no effective solution, and at present, their own aircraft carriers are still training, and the formation of combat effectiveness is not an overnight thing.

Although Japan does not have many aircraft carriers in the South Sea, only two, the threat is also very great.

"Why don't you send a submarine to knock out the Japanese aircraft carrier, then there will be no problem." When Lu Qiang mentioned this matter by chance, Zhang Zhongliang proposed to Lu Qiang.

"But how to find the Japanese aircraft carriers? I don't know the range of their movements, and there is no way to ambush them. Lu Qiang shook his head, not very optimistic about this proposal.

"This... Why don't you let the submarine go with the fleet, the speed of the fleet will slow down, and the Japanese planes will definitely send planes back to bomb the fleet after discovering the fleet, and then the submarine only needs to follow the Japanese fighters, find the Japanese aircraft carrier, and blow up the aircraft carrier. Zhang Zhongliang proposed.

In this case, the pressure on the fleet is not small, and it has to deal with both ships on the sea and planes in the sky, where does it get so much energy.

Lu Qiang didn't agree, but said, "Isn't your method not very good, there are not many ships in the first place, if it is bombed by Japan again, it will not be completely annihilated." If you want to use submarines, it is better to directly put those ten submarines in the South China Sea and drag the net to search for the Japanese aircraft carriers. ”

"It's too slow." Zhang Zhongliang said.

"yes, I know that." Lu Qiang admitted.

"In this case, it is better to use my proposal, although the loss may be larger, but it is more efficient." Zhang Zhongliang said.

"Let me think about it, it's really not good, that's the only way to do it." Lu Qiang rubbed his temples and said with some distress.

"Boss, you are sometimes too kind to a woman, at this time we should not worry about that, just go straight to it." Zhang Zhongliang finished in one breath.

"I see, I'll give you an answer tomorrow morning, that's it." Lu Qiang shook his head and said.

"Boss, you're saying this as if I'm forcing you." Zhang Zhongliang shook his head speechlessly.

"It was." Lu Qiang said with certainty.

Zhang Zhongliang was silent, he said so, then he still said a fart.

The next day, Lu Qiang made a decision.

He first asked the fleet to go south to take a look, take a walk, and take a long voyage, and by the way, see what reaction the Japanese side has. As for transporting troops, this one will wait for the fleet to come back from a round trip before making plans.

Two battleships, four cruisers, an amphibious ship, ten torpedo boats, that's all, compared with those powers, shabby.

This is the first voyage of Lu Qiang's fleet, and it is ready to do enough, and there are 10 cruise ships for supply, adding up to a total of 27 ships of various types.

Although it was shabby, the Japanese warships in the South Seas combined were only ten or twenty, but they were all cruisers and destroyers, but they were not a small threat to Lu Qiang's fleet, and the torpedo boats could not even withstand a single shot of the destroyer, and they were all slag.

The fleet's first voyage, Lu Qiang naturally wanted to take a look and see them off, this voyage was not small, and if it was not good, it would be crippled by the Japanese army.

After making up his mind, Lu Qiang acted quickly, immediately issued an order to the navy, and then rushed to Hong Kong Island by helicopter to see off the fleet.

In the afternoon of the same day, 27 ships departed.

The Blue Ridge was the command ship, the flagship, in the middle, the two sides were more than a mile apart, there were two ducks, four cruisers in the back, five torpedo boats in the front five behind, and the supply cruise ship far behind.

Lu Qiang was still not at ease, 10 submarines were also sent out by him, following behind the fleet, the speed of the Song-class submarine can reach a maximum of 50 knots, which can fully keep up with the speed of the fleet. Iowa's endurance is only 16 knots, and in order to take care of Iowa, everyone runs very slowly.

However, as a conventionally powered submarine, the Song-class submarine has a maximum range of only 30 kilometers. It takes a 30-kilometer run to float on a charge, but his endurance is very long, up to nearly 30 days.

On the Song-class submarines, they also carried various weapons, including the underwater-launched Eagle Strike series anti-ship missiles, the Yu-5 wire-guided torpedoes, and the Changying-1 antisubmarine missiles. There are a total of six launchers, two of which launch wire-guided torpedoes, others that can launch acoustic self-guided torpedoes and submarine-launched missiles.

In terms of the number of ammunition carried, the maximum amount that can only be carried is 18 pieces, usually 6 wire-guided torpedoes, 6 sound-guided torpedoes, and 6 submarine-launched missiles.

Moreover, the weapons on the submarine are also expensive, and Lu Qiang does not have a production line for these weapons, so he has to rely on exchanging them directly from the system, and the system store is a black-hearted businessman, and the price is expensive. (To be continued.) )
