Lost in the 1629186 Navy! Navy!

Stuff is definitely good. β˜… Aishang Novel Network is updated quickly (β•°β†’dushuge), the novel is complete β˜…, but I really want to make the real thing. Experience alone is obviously not enough. Wang Ruobin was not in a hurry. He intends to study and explore slowly. From small to large, slowly build. Get a few more real yΓ n ship types. The one who always gets the right result is aware of historical developments. That's where the benefits come in. He doesn't have to worry about going the wrong way.

It's just that now the outside shape shì grim. But he didn't have time to let him explore slowly. Although Professor Li Mingyuan is very tolerant. When developing a strategy against the enemy, no requirements were placed on the shipyard. But the others are not so easy to talk to - as soon as Tang Jian comes back, he will talk to Boss Wang. Ask him to be within three months anyway. At least three or four boats will be taken out.

"We're going to have to build a navy. But two ships alone can't be dispatched in any way. And both ships have their weaknesses - the Qionghai has fuel requirements. The Princess was too bulky again. We need something lightweight. A ship capable of fast movement of infantry at any time - with infantry. It doesn't matter if you don't have martial arts. ”

For this armed police squad leader who has been escorted. Ruobin would never dare to disobey. So when he returned, he immediately ordered the start of work. The type of boat built is a common flat-bottomed sand boat. Indicators such as load capacity and speed are average. The only good thing is that the old craftsman head who is brought in knows what to do. It is guaranteed to be built within three months. But Wang Ruobin himself couldn't interject anything. That's what makes him feel bad.

Don't dare to complain to Tang Jian. He had no choice but to muttered to Ling Ning and Wen Desi, who came to understand the situation:

"You want a ship...... Well, in a few months you'll be in four boats. But I'll say it up front - they're compared to other ships of our time. There are no technical advantages. When encountering the Zheng family or the Lan people's big sea, the ship can only run quickly, and it may not be able to fall. But what if you could give me another half a year... As long as half a year. I will be able to come up with a light schooner from the era of the North-South struggle. It was faster than any ship of its age. At least twice as fast. It can also carry several small cannons. If you encounter an enemy, you can fight if you want to, and you don't want to turn around and leave...... As long as half a year! ”

1. The appearance of the black gun dealer. Wen Deji couldn't help laughing:

"There will be a time when you will be asked to build a new ship. At present, this round of power should be exercised in the skills of workers. Turn back and the new ship comes out. These vintage ones can be sold. There will be no waste. As for the technical advantages...... We're not short of it. You don't have to rush at all. We all know that the Commission did not expect a technical advantage from sailing ships. ”

"That's right...... Hey, hey, you're here to see the big guy, right? It's inside. Inner dock. I've also seen the transformation plan, and it's definitely a killer after it's completed! ”

smiled and patted Wang Lao's shoulder. Wen Ling and the others began to fulfill their main mission here. Turning around and walking deeper into the shipyard, the perimeter of the shipyard was already protected by armed patrolling soldiers. And here it is. There is another layer of stricter precautions. It's Wen Ling and the others who are here. Also come up with an exclusive pass. before they are allowed in.

In a huge dry dock. The most valuable asset of this group, the Qionghai, sits quietly on a keel pier erected with many thick logs. It is undergoing a second combat modification.

- The first refit of the Qionghai. Only all fragile and fragile furniture and equipment have been removed and dismantled, and the basic type of the passenger and cargo vessel has been changed. And this is the second time. But it's going to be a big fight......

"According to the design plan of Engineer Xu and Dr. Feng. We will dismantle two-thirds of the compartments in the front of the hull. Clear the shooting boundary. When reinforcing the aft deck. Then along the central axis of the hull. In front. Middle. A rotating turret was installed on the aft deck. and increased armor throughout the body. Transform the Qionghai into a real warship! ”

The on-site construction commander is Lin Hanlong, who is standing in front of the unfolding renovation plan drawings at this time. The two envoys were briefed on the plans for the renovation of the large steamer. Although it was not explicitly announced. But everyone knows it. In the future, if the Navy is to be created. Most of the people in charge are the two in front of them - Wende 1 is also an expert in technology. I used to make big clippers models. However, his main interest is not in technology. So it's not like Wang Ruobin. Lin Hanlong and others are professional technicians. Rather, it is developing in the direction of integration.

Ling Ning's advantage is that he is very proficient in the Age of Discovery. Knowing the reality of the maritime power of the Western countries during this period. The navy of the future will definitely have more dealings with foreign powers. His knowledge is very useful for this.

"Only three cannons? Will the firepower be single? ”

Ling Ning asked with a frown. Western warships in this era often had dozens or hundreds of guns. It seems a bit chilly to install only three guns on the Qionghai?

Lin Hanlong smiled:

"It's seven - the front and rear secondary turrets are twinning. The central main turret is triple. In terms of power, you can rest assured that in this day and age there is no wooden hull that can withstand our high-explosive bombardment. Even if it's a thousand-ton big guy like the Princess. A salvo is guaranteed to be sent to sea. ”

said. He led the two to the aft deck. Here's a finished product that's already installed. The turret has a hemispherical shape. Two guns stood tall. It looks very powerful.

However, Wen Deji climbed up. Reached into the muzzle of the cannon and touched it

Even with a frown:

"Why is it still a twelve-pounder bronze cannon? Or smoothbore. How far can this journey be? The caliber is also on the small side. Lin Hanlong smiled. Two hands in a spread:

"No way. We can't make high-quality steel specifically for cannon casting. The use of wrought iron casting cannons is also relatively rusty. Engineer Xu believes that before the breakthrough of material technology. There is no need to specialize in a bronze cannon for ships. Therefore, it is still necessary to use more mature army artillery technology. The caliber is also 117mm, which is the same as the Napoleonic gun equipped with the army. In this way, the ammunition can be used universally - the use of the Qionghai will not be limited to naval warfare in the future. If necessary. It can also be loaded with army artillery. Mobile platforms. It is necessary to suppress fire on coastal targets, and to use ammunition universally. ”

As he spoke. He pointed to the back deck, where some metal hooks were attached. Handrails and the like were apparently prepared for future solid army artillery mounts.

"We did the math. Enemies that may be encountered in this era. The effective range of two thousand meters of the twelve-pounder gun was more than enough. It doesn't make sense to hit any further - there are computer-aided systems and radars. It is difficult to shoot accurately beyond this distance with only optical equipment and naked eye aiming. ”

"The use of smoothbore guns is to find it convenient to change the type of ammunition. Inside the turret - the shell was sixty rounds. Below deck. The ammunition compartment, converted from cargo hold, can also be stocked with 500 rounds of ammunition. There are mainly two types of high-explosive bombs and incendiary bombs. There were also a small number of hard armor-piercing shells - not intended against ships. Rather, it was used to build fortifications on the shore. The Lord is a stone fortress for Westerners and the like. ”

Here, just after answering Wen Desi's question, Bian Lingning was asking again:

"How does this turret turn? Push by manpower? ”

Very narrow question. There is no spare machinery on board the Qionghai to rotate the turret. However, Lin Hanlong just smiled, and his face was full of the unique meaning of a technician:

"Yesβ€”β€”- the turrets are electric, and they are equipped with three hoists. Tong guΓ² pulls the steel cable to control the clockwise and counterclockwise rotation of the turret. And the whole muzzle angle - of course. If the machine is out of order. Then it can only be pushed by manpower. ”

"What is the thickness of the armor - it feels like it's a little thinner......"

Wende 1 patted the outside of the turret and began to find fault. Hanlong was still unhurried:

"The turret was designed by Dr. Feng Yufei. She used to be a tanker. It's a little bit of a double-layered six-millimeter cold steel plate. Composite armor composed of a layer of fireproof material is sandwiched in between. The shell is also made in the shape of a half-egg. We did the test: we took the captured Dutch artillery and bombarded it with solid shells. Two hundred meters away. Direct opening; Within two hundred meters. smash a pit; If you want to destroy the turret, you must be within fifty meters. Then it's not a question of fighting. ”

The barrage of questions did not stump the other party. However, this made Ling Ning and Wen Desi both deeply satisfied.

"Okay...... So only one last question remains - how long will it take to complete the retrofit? ”

"Even if a qiΔ“ shun lΓ¬. I'm afraid it's about three to four months. We don't have enough people. ”

Lin Hanlong finally sighed - at the bottom of the boat. Many workers are busy scraping off the bottom of the ship. Except. new lacquer and so on. These are the safest and most reliable people who have been working with them for more than a year. But there is only some ancillary work to be done underneath.

On deck, there are far fewer people. Because only modern people are allowed to work here. It's not that I don't trust Ben's workers. It's just that the technical requirements involved in the upper renovation project are too complicated. Even modern people have to be trained before they can work. Ben's workers are really not up to the task.

"What are the security measures in place? Now is the time when the Qionghai is at its weakest. Don't let people destroy the slipway. ”

Ling Ning said a little crow's mouth. Lin Hanlong didn't think much. Hey Smile:

"It's not a big deal. There was a platoon of artillery on the side of the battery at any time. The garrison here also has a company. And. Captain Tang's boot camp is nearby. ”

- Since the last time I received the "gift" from the Zheng family. The traversal immediately strengthened the defenses of the Red Card Harbor. One and one forts were built on each side of the entrance. Two artillery pieces were housed. In peacetime, a platoon of garrisons was stationed. Anyone with bad intentions will only want to break through the blockade of crossfire and rush into the harbor.

And after the Qionghai was on board. Wang Hai1 led his second company directly to the shipyard. Take charge of the safety and security of the shipyard personally. Tang Jian's main battalion is also not far away. If there is a situation, you can arrive within 10 minutes.

"Okay. Month ......"

Ling Ning gently tapped the turret. A rather complicated look appeared on his face. There is pride. But with a little expectation:

"We arrived at this era later. It has always been just on land. But there are four more months...... Hum. Dutch. Zheng Jia...... When the time comes, it will be interesting to see who is the real overlord of the sea! β€β€”β€”ο½ž-ο½žβ€”β€”ο½žβ€”β€”ο½žβ€”β€”ο½ž
