384 Mighty Great Ships
Gravot's eyes suddenly widened when he heard Lin Fei's words, "Are you really Lin Fei?" You're the Flying Emperor? ”
"Do I need to lie to you, little minion?" Lin Fei said disdainfully, Gravot immediately raised his head, and howled in his throat: "Since you are Lin Fei, then let me go quickly, the army of our Kingdom of the Netherlands will break through Zhurong City sooner or later, and you won't be able to run away at that time, if you let me go, I will say a few kind words to the Dutch master for you, and spare your dog's life......"
Lin Fei couldn't listen anymore, raised his hand and slapped Gravot, causing Gravoort's head to spin and almost fly out of his neck, and his broken teeth flew out of his mouth, falling to the ground with a "crackle".
Gravot turned his head to glare at Lin Fei and shouted: "Dare to fight Lao Tzu, wait until the day when the Dutch master breaks through Zhurong City......"
Gravot was still howling, Lin Fei waved his hand to call a subordinate, pointed at Gravot, and said: "Pull this guy and those members of the mission to the square and shoot them, no, it's too cheap to shoot them, let's kill them in Ling Chi." ”
The subordinates were stunned for a moment and persuaded: "Your Majesty, if you kill them, no one will send our declaration of war to the Dutch." ”
Lin Fei said "um", "That makes sense, let's castrate this kid Gravotte, and then let him send the declaration of war." ”
The subordinate snickered a few times, took Gravot away, pulled him out into the square, pulled him straight down his trousers, waved his bayonet, cut it up by the roots, smeared a handful of grass ash on the wound at will, dragged him to the side of the Dutch mission, threw him in the sea, and without saying a word, turned around and left, so angry that the Dutch jumped on the boat and cursed.
Lin Fei began to prepare for the attack of the Dutch, Lin Fei took into account the military elements when building Zhurong City, so he built fifteen fortresses around Zhurong City, these forts are fifteen meters high, surrounded by low flat land, there are no trees, hillsides and other things that block the view.
Lin Fei set aside fifteen firing ports on the fortress, each firing port can be arranged with a light machine gun, and a Grimm fast gun is also arranged on the top of the fortress, these light machine guns and Grimm fast cannons can suppress the enemy a thousand meters away, although there are no trenches dug between the forts, but in wartime, the Chinese and indigenous people in the whole city can be mobilized to dig trenches within three hours. Lin Fei gave Niu Dalong an order, asking him to lead the troops to dig trenches immediately and prepare for defense, and Niu Dalong took the order.
Lin Fei knew that it would be difficult to defend against the heavy attacks of the Dutch and Indonesians with the strength of Zhurong City alone, so Lin Fei mobilized troops from Voss City.
After the liberation of Taiwan, Lin Fei obtained a large number of people and arable land, so he built Taiwan into a grain production base, and at the same time obtained a large amount of resources from the Qing Dynasty through Taiwan, so that Lin Fei could expand his military strength freely.
At this time, Lin Fei organized into four group armies, the first group army, headquartered in Dayu City on Luzon Island, under the jurisdiction of the first, second, and third divisions; The Second Army, headquartered in Yanhuangcheng in the Visayas (Lin Fei's "Land of Dragons" Samar Island, which is geographically part of the Visayas), has the 4th and 5th Divisions under its command.
The Third Army, headquartered in Voss City, Mindanao, with the 6th and 7th Divisions; The Fourth Army, headquartered in Tainan, Taiwan, has the Eighth Division under its command. Borneo and Sulawesi were newly occupied, so they did not have army groups.
In addition to the main combat units of the four group armies, Lin Fei also deployed half-army and half-civilian garrisons in various cities, and as soon as the war requires, these garrison units could be immediately organized into regular main battle divisions.
The Chinese Empire was born in the rain of bullets, it was Lin Fei who led the Chinese to exchange blood and life, so Lin Fei did not dare to forget for a minute to prepare for war, Lin Fei formulated a national military force mobilization plan, once this plan was launched, within twenty-four hours, each main battle division could mobilize troops from the garrison and expand into four divisions, forming a powerful armed force of up to thirty-two divisions...
Lin Fei thought about it again and again, but did not start this plan, because this plan was very involved, and it would only be started when the Chinese Empire suffered a full-scale invasion, and the current war was only a local war with the Dutch and the Indonesians, so as not to start such a big all-out war plan.
Lin Fei then ordered the Sixth Division to rush to the aid of Zhurongcheng, and at the same time ordered the Crazy Dragon Ships and Angry Dragon Ships stationed in Penghu to deter the Japanese and Qing courts to come to the rescue.
Lin Fei formulated a defense plan, handed over this plan to Niu Dalong to implement, and led the remnants of the Tianlong ship and the Yunlong ship to return to Dayu City on the Leopard-class high-speed transport ship, as for the Tianlong ship and the Yunlong ship, they were hidden in a harbor near Zhurong City.
Lin Fei returned to Dayu City on May 30, Lin Fei first asked the sailors to rest, and then took Liu Daming and other senior admirals to the conference room, where Lin Fei wanted to introduce the situation of the big warship.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the conference room was already full of people, and Lin Fei motioned to Ling Xue, "You can start." ”
Ling Xue nodded, got up from her seat, walked to the front of the conference room, and ordered someone to hang a line diagram of a battleship on the blackboard.
The "line diagram" is a diagram that outlines the outline and main equipment of the battleship with lines, and on the line diagram, the shape of the battleship, the number of naval guns, etc., can be seen at a glance, of course, all that can be seen are the external equipment, and the internal equipment cannot be seen.
As soon as Ling Xue took out the wall chart, everyone exclaimed and discussed in unison: "This is our big battleship..."
Ling Xue and the others subsided before saying: "This is our big warship, there are two currently under construction, which are called 'Big One Ship' and 'Big Second Ship', of course, this is not their final name, their final name will have to wait for His Majesty's discretion." ”
Everyone nodded one after another, after all, the names "Big One Ship" and "Big Second Ship" are not a little ugly.
Ling Xue continued: "Now let me introduce the size characteristics and main armament of this type of battleship, it is a cruiser, with a length of 163 meters, a width of 25 meters, a draft of 7 meters, a standard displacement of 7,000 tons, a full load displacement of 8,000 tons, and an extra 1,000 tons, mainly used to load coal. ”
The main opponents of the big warships were the British, the Qing court and Japan, and they were not close to the Chinese Empire, so Lin Fei specially designed the coal-burning loading capacity to be relatively large.
Ling Xue said and pointed to the gun emplacements on the line diagram and said: "In terms of hull armament, the big battle ship is equipped with six 240 mm main guns, eight 120 mm secondary guns, and twenty 11 mm caliber six-barreled machine guns, of which the machine gun is an imitation of the Green Quick Cannon, and the secondary gun is the JP-120-1 gun applied to the Dragon-class cruiser. ”
"The six 240 mm main guns are the newly developed JP-240-1 guns, which are placed in three turrets, each turret is in the form of two installations, two in front of the three turrets, one in the back, arranged along the central axis of the hull, which can be turned 360 degrees, and an automatic loader is arranged under the turret."
The large battle ship was equipped with six 240 mm guns, and although the firepower was not comparable to that of the Sovereign class, it was more than enough to pack the two new Yoshino ships of the same class purchased by the Netherlands, and everyone was happy.
"Eight 120 mm secondary guns are arranged on both sides, and there are ammunition storage compartments under the gun emplacements to prevent explosions. After talking about the fire system, let's talk about the fire control system, we are equipped with the HK-2 fire control system developed by the two large warships, this system uses an electrically driven mechanical computer to calculate the advance of the enemy's movement, and sends the advance to each gun position for the gunners to aim, and the calculation accuracy is about twice as high as that of the current manual control computer. ”
When everyone heard "twice the accuracy", they all showed surprise, Yu Xier raised his hand lightly and said, "Comrade Ling Xue, I have a question. ”
"Please speak..."Ling Xue took advantage of Yu Xi'er's question to pick up the cup and take a sip of water, Yu Xi'er said: "The more complex the weapons and equipment, the more it takes time to train to master, now that the war is imminent, can we master such a complex system in a short time?" ”
Lin Fei laughed without waiting for Ling Xue to speak, and said to Yu Xi'er: "Old Yu, don't worry, I have always believed in a military principle...... In the process of developing large warships, I ordered the Huaxia Naval Academy to organize capable cadets to conduct simulated training, and now they have mastered this set of equipment. ”
"And what about the rest of the ship?"
Lin Fei replied with a smile: "Don't worry, in order for the big warship to be familiar with the sailors, I designed many of the equipment of the big warship to be the same as that of the Dragon-class cruiser, such as the emergency shutdown equipment of the watertight cabin, the rudder equipment, etc., so that I only need to train the unique system of the big warship alone." ”
Yu Xier nodded and said, "Okay, I don't have any questions, please Comrade Ling Xue continue." ”
Ling Xue agreed, and then said, "Now that the size of the ship and the armament of the ship are finished, I will introduce the power system again." ”
Everyone had just suffered the loss of the speed of the Yoshino ship of the same class, and when they heard the "power system", their eyes lit up, and they stared at Ling Xue tightly, Ling Xue said: "The big battle ship uses a three-expansion steam engine improved by His Majesty, and the maximum speed is estimated to be about eighteen knots. ”
"It's only eighteen? The maximum speed of the Yoshino is twenty-three knots... Aren't we going to suffer? The crowd began to talk worriedly.
Ling Xue was a little overwhelmed in the face of everyone's discussions, and looked at Lin Fei helplessly, Lin Fei said with a smile: "Don't worry, everyone, although we suffer in speed, we have an absolute advantage in artillery caliber and fire control system, we can hide outside the range of enemy ships and open fire, when the enemy ships can't hit us, we can hit them..."
