On 1 July 1939, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Huaxia Government sent a message to the outside world that following the United States' assistance of two heavy cruisers and four light cruisers, the Huaxia Navy had added two aircraft carriers and two battleships. The two battleships and aircraft carriers will join the East China Sea Fleet and the Pacific Fleet respectively, and they will enter Dalian Port on the morning of 3 July to be inspected by the general public.

As soon as the news was released, the whole world was shocked, could it be that China, which had just regained its substantive unity, was about to start rearming its maritime forces again?

"Yagaya deer! Which country actually sold such weapons as aircraft carriers and battleships to China, and did it go crazy? Vice Admiral Yoshida Zengo, commander of the Japan-Ben Combined Fleet, who had just received the news on the net, was shocked, and he turned his head and asked Yoshino Zensui, chief of the Naval Intelligence Section on the side, "Yoshino-kun, have you received any information from which country did the Shina people buy aircraft carriers and battleships?" ”

Yoshino Zensui Osa shook his head, "Your Excellency Yoshida, we have not received similar information. The construction cycle of battleships for aircraft carriers is often several years to be built, and now they have added two aircraft carriers and two battleships at once, so it cannot be new, and they can only buy second-hand goods from European countries, so it is impossible for us to know this kind of information if it is done well in secret. ”

"Yo Xi!" Yamamoto Fifty-six on the side nodded in agreement and said: "Yoshino-kun is right, if the people of Shina had purchased and ordered aircraft carriers and battleships a few years ago, it would be impossible for our intelligence department not to receive the news, because it is impossible to hide the construction of a large warship like this from others, this is basic common sense." ”

The officers next to them also nodded in agreement, they believed that few countries could keep it as secret as the Yamato battleship built by Japan, after all, the secrecy of Western countries is not as strict as that of Eastern countries, especially a giant like a large battleship It is even more difficult to keep it secret.

"Soga immediately ordered the instructions lurking in Dalian to get ready, and be sure to send the information of the warships of the Zhina people!" Lieutenant General Yoshida Zengo turned around and ordered Yoshino Zensui Daisa of the Intelligence Section.

"Hello!" Yoshino Yoshisui bowed his head sharply and rose up.

At 10 o'clock in the morning of July 3, 1939, there was a surge of people outside the port of Dalian, and countless people flocked to the port. They all rushed to witness the arrival of the battleship of the title of the giant, and the other two aircraft carriers were not discussed by many people, because at this time the people seemed to those aircraft to be nothing but a few planes, and how attractive were the huge and high guns of the battleships.

In order to show his attention to these upcoming warships, Su Tong led the high-level leaders of several parties, such as the Baath Party, the Congress Party, and the Social Labor Party, to Dalian Port to welcome the arrival of these ships.

Su Tong and his entourage, escorted by the guards, came to a clearing with the best terrain and stopped.

"Jianming, I really convinced you, even if you can get your hands on this kind of large battleship, I really don't know what else you can't get." Vice President Gu said to Su Tong with a smile, with a kind smile on his face.

"Well, it's a drop. Large warships like this are very tightly controlled by various countries, Jianming, from which country did you get it? At this time, Vice President Jiang seemed to have put aside decades of grievances with Vice President Gu, and asked in harmony.

Su Tong scolded in his heart: "These two old foxes, aren't they just like to find out where these warships are coming from?" When did you have such a tacit understanding between the two rivals as brothers? His face was silent, but he replied lightly: "It's nothing, it's just a few friends to help, as for which country these warships were built, I don't think it matters, the important thing is that they are now ours, this is the most important thing, what do you say?" ”

After speaking, Su Tong took the lead and walked forward, and Vice President Jiang and Vice President Gu had a strange light in their eyes before they followed.

At this time, Foreign Minister Zhou Tiecheng walked to Vice President Gu's side with great interest and said: "Chairmanship (using the old name), with the addition of these four large warships, our country's naval strength will be unprecedentedly improved." I, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, can straighten my back in front of those foreigners! ”

Vice President Gu didn't see any expression on his face at this time, he didn't take Zhou Tiecheng's words, but said lightly: "I heard that the cost of these four warships is not cheap, I heard Comrade Chen Yun say that this type of battleship costs at least 20 million US dollars each, this Su Jianming is really rich." Zhou Tiecheng was stunned after listening to President Gubi's words, and then he heard the emotion of his old partner, if the Social Workers Party had such strong financial support, why was he driven into the ravine by the Congress Party? Su Tong's rise is all due to people's large withdrawals and money to open the way. After sighing slightly, Zhou Tiecheng followed again.

"Coming, coming, they're coming!"

At ten thirty o'clock in the afternoon, the sharp-eyed people had already noticed that a few small black spots were coming from the sea in the distance, and when it was not long, these small black heads were getting bigger and bigger, and there were more and more of them, and it turned out that there was a group of smaller black spots next to this black spot, which were accompanied by several huge ships all the way, Fletcher, class destroyers.

"Papapa" Someone on the dock began to set off firecrackers, "Many people were singing and dancing to welcome the arrival of these warships, and soon, these four huge warships quickly came into people's sight.

"Oh, buy ga!" A British reporter on the dock covered his mouth in surprise, he grew up in a naval power, he was also well-informed, but he had never seen such a huge battleship. In the name of his grandmother, he had never seen such a massive battleship. In front of these two battleships, the Queen Elizabeth-class battleships, which the British were originally proud of, could only be a joke.

After this unprecedentedly large battleship with a maximum displacement of 73,000 tons sailed into the dock, the otherwise formidable American-aided, treaty-class heavy cruisers were next to them like babies standing next to adults.

"Yaga! How could the people of China have such a huge warship? Such a mighty warship should belong to the Empire! In the cheering crowd, a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance was secretly gritting his teeth and cursing in a low voice. Next to him, there was a man who was pretending to be excited and kept taking pictures.

There were not only ordinary people cheering on the docks, but also military attaches and reporters from various countries who were also shocked by these unprecedented giant battleships. Knowledgeable people naturally know that the manufacturing cycle of such a huge battleship is at least three to four years, and where did Huaxia customize these battleships, with their professional vision and rich knowledge, these battleships that have never appeared before are absolutely brand new and have never appeared in this world, including the two huge aircraft carriers, these two aircraft carriers with slightly upturned decks will definitely not be smaller than those two battleships. After obtaining these two aircraft carriers and battleships, the days of warships of Western countries flaunting their might in this sea area are a thing of the past.

"Boom...... ......A series of loud noises woke up the frenzied populace, and it turned out that several light and heavy cruisers on the dock were firing a gun salute. At this time, the four battleships had slowly approached the dock. Chen Shaokuan and Shen Honglie wore solemn dresses, and led their officers and sailors respectively to stand on the sides of the aircraft carrier and battleship and salute the crowd on the dock.

Su Tong also walked up to the temporary viewing platform with the support of all the officials, he did not sit down, but grabbed the microphone in front of him and said loudly to the cheering crowd: "Compatriots, soldiers, today we are ushering in a good day of national celebration, our young navy has added two more battleships and two aircraft carriers. Since then, a great wall of steel has been built on our defense line, and these warships will also become the swords in the hands of our naval officers, and they will not hesitate to stab at those invaders who dare to invade our maritime borders. Since then, the days when our country had no sea and no defense are gone! ”

"Boom la la ............", "

When Su Tong said this, the cheers in the crowd completely rang out, and there were deafening cheers and firecrackers everywhere.

Countless people left tears of sadness in their eyes, once upon a time, the Chinese people at sea, and even in the inland rivers of China saw the foreign ** ship in the rampaging scene, the Chinese fishermen in their own country's territorial waters fishing is like being a thief to prevent the arrival of the foreign ** ship, when encountering the Westerners' warships, as long as the fishing boats are not in front of them, they ignore you, if they run into the warships of the Japanese themselves, maybe they will deliberately turn around and crash the surrounding fishing boats to pieces, Countless fishermen have perished in this way.

At this time, there were bursts of neat footsteps in front of the viewing platform, and everyone fixed their eyes to see that it was a group of students from the Dalian Naval Ship Academy walking over.

Dressed in snow-white dresses and holding polished steel guns, they walked in neat steps, showing people their determination and perseverance to defend their homes and country.

At the same time, a loud singing voice also came out of the team, "Let's drink this bowl of wine today and set out with endless joy!" Expedition to the land of the rising sun, ah, we to the land of the rising sun! My dear girl, when you receive the letter I left and this medal, I have blessed you in heaven, bless you, my most beautiful girl, and when night falls, when you look at the sky, do not forget that the most beautiful star is my eye on you......"

When this burst of singing sounded, several military attachés from Western countries clearly saw the fire in the eyes of the military attaché stationed in China on the side............

"Yaga Yalu, it turned out to be the ...... of the Yamato"! ~！
