Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Shipyard (I)

Updated: 202-02-05

On the 24th of the month, when he returned to Baltimore, Qian Shuiting immediately handed over all the North American affairs to Zhou Weisen, and he returned to the original time and space with Aibeibei and Shen Chen, and rushed to Zhoushan in a hurry.

In Bai Baoxiang's office, Qian Shuiting bluntly stated his opinion: "Lao Bai, I don't agree to cooperate with the Jews of the current time and space!" ”

Bai Baoxiang handed Qian Shuiting a glass of water, "Old Qian, sit down and talk slowly!" ”

"When I first got your letter, I just had some doubts." Qian Shuiting sat under the air conditioner, "After careful consideration, I don't think it is absolutely okay to cooperate with the Jews of the current time and space. ”

Bai Baoxiang didn't speak, he waited for him to continue.

"First of all, the space-time box is our core secret, and we are just a small ant compared to the deep-rooted implementation of the Childe family. Let a deep-pocketed force know that we have a space-time machine, and we could end up tragically! Speaking of this, Qian Shuiting was very emotional, "Who can guarantee that the Jews will not trade our secrets with others." What if people mobilize all their forces and snatch our boxes? ”

Bai Baoxiang was a little moved, "Old Qian, you're right, safety first!" For the sake of cooperation, the wormhole and life are lost, and this cannot be drawn. ”

Qian Shuiting drank the water in the cup in one go, "The Jews have always been very cold-blooded. Before the outbreak of World War II, Mustache was anti-Semitic, but the Jewish consortium still supported Mustache. They are absolutely mercenary, only care about making money for themselves, never trust outsiders, and cronies only use their own people. We who are weak must not cooperate with them. ”

"We have a headache too, old money." Bai Baoxiang helped Qian Shuiting to renew the water, "In order to develop better in 54 years, we need to take away a lot of technologies, but many of TG's technologies are really not available." For example, our warships need excellent marine steel, and marine power systems also need excellent engines. ”

"You're all wrong, it's not the business that's rushing up!" Qian Shuiting shook his head, "The current Jews have long been successfully restored, and they can be regarded as successful and famous, and they have nothing to ask for from us. They may or may not want to cooperate, all in their hearts. To be honest, I don't hate Jews at all, and I'm all for working with Jews, but this Jew has to be a Jew for '54, forget about it. ”

"I agree with you." Bai Baoxiang said, "However, these technical requirements put forward by the industrial mouth, you North American rudder must find a way." ”

"There's only one other way to do this." Qian Shuiting scratched his fat head, "It is useless to rely on the Rothschilds to engage in scientific and technological intelligence, the Jewish consortium is basically engaged in finance, and the entity and technology are a little far away from them." Besides, we don't necessarily need too much high-precision technology, just a little or two points higher than the ghost animals at that time are enough! ”

"Okay, tomorrow we will go to the base of the industrial mouth together, their opinion."

The next day, Bai Baoxiang, Qian Shuiting, and others drove to the shipyard to inspect the construction of the warship on the spot.

Ningbo has a long coastline and a wide harbor and deep water. Since the rise of the shipbuilding industry in the 90s, many large and medium-sized shipyards have been stationed here. There is a small bay near Jiufeng Mountain in Ningbo, which is surrounded by hundreds of acres of flat land, which houses special shipbuilding equipment such as slipways, docks, slipways, outfitting docks and large cranes. This is a shipyard acquired by the Crossing Regiment, and the shipyard's former shipbuilding supervisor Li Yang assists the Crossing Regiment Industrial Committee and is responsible for managing the entire shipyard. Naval architect Lan Hai is the chief engineer of the shipyard, and is fully responsible for the construction of the ships of the Navy of the Crossing Regiment.

Originally, the crossing group and this shipyard were only in partnership, and the shipyard was responsible for the construction of the two high-imitation warships booked by the crossing group. However, under the deception of the ship designer Lan Hai, the Working Committee of the Crossing Youth League proposed to the Executive Committee to buy the shipyard and control the shipyard completely.

For this matter, Lin Youde, the person in charge of the Industrial Committee, and Lan Hai specially discussed with Bai Baoxiang, he said: "The crossing regiment needs the shipyard to build warships for us, but what the crossing regiment needs more is to learn to build ships by itself." ”

Bai Baoxiang asked: "Is it good that we send people to the shipyard to study?" ”

"It's different." Lan Hai shook his head again and again, "Modern shipbuilding is completely different from the past. ”

Lan Hai explained to Bai Baoxiang in detail: "In the past, shipbuilding and riveting era focused on overall manufacturing; After the widespread application of welding technology, in order to improve efficiency, the segmented manufacturing model was pursued. However, modern shipbuilding is the integration of design, production and management, and the integration of shell, outfitting and coating, so that the shipbuilding efficiency is higher and faster. If you learn by yourself, even if there are people in each process, you can only learn the surface. ”

Bai Baoxiang tapped the table with his hand, groaned for a while, and said: "I understand what you mean, if you don't operate the whole process, it will be difficult to grasp the essence of the modern shipbuilding model. With our own shipyard, we can better experiment and study how to build ships in another time and space. ”

Lin Youde nodded, "That's what it means." ”

Bai Baoxiang readily agreed to Lin Youde's suggestion, first asked Gu Wusheng to negotiate with the shipyard owner first, and waited until the financial team grabbed a large amount of funds before accepting the factory in its entirety.

In front of the shipyard office building, a long banner was hung, "Warmly welcome President Qian Shuiting to visit!" ”

Lin Youde, Li Yang, and Lan Hai were already there to greet Bai Baoxiang and Qian Shuiting. Qian Shuiting grabbed Lan Hai's hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Lan, I have heard of your name for a long time, and I have come to learn from you today." ”

Lan Hai is this year, a native of Hubei, and joined the ranks of the crossing group at the end of May. After receiving the task of designing a warship, Lanhai first considered that the design of the warship must meet the requirements of the Navy for this type of warship.

According to the strategic concept of the crossing regiment, in the early stage of the crossing, it occupied Taiwan and cultivated in a low-key manner, striving to maintain peaceful coexistence with the European and American powers, and avoiding war but not fearing war. The warships were designed and built in preparation for the control of East Asian seas five years later.

Lan Hai believes that as our main warship, the initial Prince is enough to take on a big role. At that time, the warships of the European and American powers were all iron-ribbed wooden ships, and the 27 machine guns could completely sweep everything, even the 57 naval guns could run rampant for 0 years.

The design idea of our warships should be aimed at the fact that they can easily deal with the main warships of Europe and the United States in 65 years. The warships designed and built to compete with the main warships of Europe and the United States in 65 years must be without pressure. The warships we build with modern industrial technology should be able to serve in a different time and space for more than 30 years, even if they are not outdated in 5 years, and they can still compete with European and American warships.

Lanhai overturned the original idea of imitating the Changde ship and proposed to build two armored cruisers. Although the armored cruiser is expensive and relatively slow, it has strong survivability and can play the role of the capital ship of the future. Because of the limitation of crossing tonnage, Lanhai set the tonnage of the two armored cruisers at about 000 tons.

In his report to the Executive Committee, he wrote: The firepower of our warships is beyond doubt, but it is often the shortcomings that determine the outcome of a war, and if our warships cannot withstand the artillery fire of the European and American powers, then as long as they are hit by the first shot, it will be a tragedy.

After many discussions, the Executive Committee agreed to the preliminary design of Lanhai. Lin Youde praised this plan, believing that the manufacture of armored cruisers could not only meet the needs of the navy, but also train and train our own shipbuilding team.

After receiving the approval of the Executive Committee, Lanhai began the detailed design of the battleship. He still carried out according to the structural diagram of the Changde ship, enlarged the length to 0 meters, and the width to 2 meters. The standard displacement was increased to 2700 tons, and the full load displacement was controlled within 000 tons. The thickness of the additional waterline armor belt is 00mm, and a 50mm armor deck is set in the middle, covering the engine room, oil tank and ammunition compartment, and forming a closed armor box structure with the side armor.

Install suitable civilian radar equipment, equipped with old-fashioned navigation equipment.

According to the plan of the military industry, the armament system has a main gun turret in the bow and stern. The upper deck platform is equipped with a total of six secondary guns in the fore, middle and aft along the two sides. The position of the two missile mounts in the front and rear is scheduled to install 75 guns first, and if the missile development is effective, the missile launcher will be modified later.

When designing the ship's power plant, Lan Hai thought about it for a long time.

The main ship power plants that can be used by the crossing regiment are: steam turbine power plant, diesel engine power plant, and gas turbine power plant. Lanhai knew that it was best to use gas turbines for the power scheme of warships.

The rated power of the LM2500+ gas turbine in the United States has reached 297kW, but even if you buy it, it is a civilian version, which has too many restrictions, and it is very troublesome to repair and maintain it in a different time and space.

Before the disintegration of Ukraine, it was the former Soviet Union's gas turbine development and production base, when it had just completed the development of the fourth generation of GT-25000 gas turbine, the power of the machine is 000 horsepower, in addition to the weight and volume slightly greater than LM-2500, in terms of fuel consumption, efficiency and other aspects are equivalent to LM-2500, is a type of better performance of the marine gas turbine. In addition to introducing finished products for the construction of warships, TG has also signed a technology introduction agreement with Ukraine from the perspective of ship power based on domestic development, and imported technology for its own production.

Originally, Lanhai initially decided to use two domestic imitation GT25000 gas turbines, but was strongly opposed, first of all, the use of imitation GT25000 gas turbines is easy to alarm TG government agencies, and secondly, GT25000 gas turbines we have no technical process drawings, etc., to 54 years it is difficult to maintain, and there is no way to imitate production, and in 54 years, as long as we ensure that the speed of more than 5 knots, it is enough to amaze the Quartet.

In accordance with the principle of simple access, simple manufacturing process and simple maintenance, Lanhai finally set the power system to use four diesel engines Codad combination, with an output of more than 20,000 horsepower, cruising speed knots, a maximum speed of 2 knots, and a cruising range of 7,000 nautical miles / knot.

In mid-June, Lanhai came up with a detailed design plan for an armored cruiser on the basis of the basic design of the battleship. This plan was quickly approved by the Executive Committee, and the warship of this type was designated as a Qin-class (Type 695A) armored cruiser, and two armored cruisers, "Baiqi" and "Mengtian", were approved to be built in accordance with the Qin-class design plan.

After receiving the approval, Lanhai immediately led several college graduates who had just graduated to the shipyard for production design.

Production design is a design that meets the production requirements of the shipyard. Include:

Formulate the shipbuilding plan and prepare the process regulations such as hull lofting, numbering materials, component processing, hull assembly and welding, ship outfitting, ship painting, shipbuilding accuracy and technical measurement, ship launching, etc.

Analysis, research and preparation of various process plan documents. Such as the total process schedule, process project schedule, process route table, equipment and material order list.

Analyze and study the process operation methods of each process of shipbuilding. That is, to formulate reasonable process regulations, and according to this selection and design of the corresponding process equipment, and constantly improve the level of mechanization and automation of hull construction.

Research and formulate various construction accuracy standards. According to the requirements of the shipowner and the conditions of the shipyard, the construction accuracy standards of each process and the corresponding technical measurement methods are formulated.

Lanhai inspected the slipway, equipment, technical conditions and so on of the shipyard on the basis of detailed design, decomposed and combined product operation tasks according to regions, stages and types, and combined with the construction conditions of the shipyard to plan the design of "how to build a ship and how to meet the construction requirements", and took out a complete set of production design drawings of the Qin-class (Type 695A) armored cruiser in early July.
