At the morning meeting, the admirals expressed their opinions and views, and summed up that there were three sets of rough reorganization plans, which were all in line with the situation from the current situation, but it is not known whether they would still be in line with the international situation after the end of the war, so these three sets of plans can only be used as a backup at present.

After the morning meeting, at lunchtime, Xiao Zhenlei asked Sa Zhenbing while eating, "Which plan do you think is more suitable for the post-war international situation?" ”

Sa Zhenbing hesitated a little when he heard this: "President, if I am asked to command the war, it is no problem, the reorganization of the navy this time needs to be carried out in response to the post-war international situation, and I am not good at analyzing the post-war international situation, so I ??????."

Xiao Zhenlei also knows that asking such a question is also embarrassing for Sa Zhenbing, if it is just a simple reorganization, it will definitely be difficult for Sa Zhenbing, but this reorganization plan is different, this is to reorganize the international situation in a few years, not only Sa Zhenbing has no way to make an accurate judgment, but I am afraid that most military generals and even military experts will not be able to predict.

Xiao Zhenlei can actually foresee that when the war is over, the rise of China in the East will inevitably cause strong resistance from Western countries, and even they will unite against China, and the key role in this is the United States, if the United States expands in the Pacific direction, then China will have to face the United States and Europe at the same time, in order to avoid this situation, it is necessary to find opponents for the United States, and support Mexico, Cuba and other countries in North America to fight against the United States, and at the same time create civil strife within the United States. In order to achieve the goal of weakening the United States.

In fact, in this matter, Xiao Zhenlei had already instructed the Iron and Blood Investigation Bureau to start working a few years ago, after several years of hard work. With the covert support of China, Mexico, Cuba, and other countries in terms of military strength has been greatly enhanced, and they have faintly begun to threaten the security of the southern border of the United States, and there are also signs of instability in the United States, and domestic contradictions in the United States have escalated sharply. The social order began to become chaotic.

In addition to supporting forces against the United States in North America, Xiao Zhenlei believes that it is also necessary to deploy strong naval forces in the Pacific Ocean to curb the expansion of the United States to the western part of the Pacific.

According to the plan of Sa Zhenbing and others, the main forces of the naval fleet will be deployed in various sea areas for defense, which is not in line with China's current international policy proposition. Xiao Zhenlei believes that deploying too many forces in various defense zones will limit the display of its own strength and will also limit the navy's show of force to the world.

These two days. Xiao Zhenlei has also been thinking about how to reorganize the naval fleet, and after thinking about it for the past two days, he already has a roughly vague composition in his mind, and he believes that the main forces of the naval fleet cannot be limited to the defense zones of various sea areas, and the main fleet of the navy must be allowed to travel freely in various sea areas.

First of all, all the forces of the navy are divided into two parts: the main fleet is responsible for foreign conquests, the external propaganda of national prestige, the display of force, and the protection of national interests, while the coastal defense guard is responsible for coastal defense patrols along the coastlines, domestic naval bases, foreign naval bases, and areas of influence, defending against foreign invasions, and cooperating with maritime departments to crack down on smuggling.

At present, there are seven naval bases in China. One in Singapore, one in Senna, one in Cam Ranh Bay, one in Naha, one on the southeast coast, one in Bohai Bay, and one in Vladivostok. But these are not enough. It is also necessary to establish two naval bases in the North Pacific, one in the Kara Sea in the northern Xinjiang region, and one in the Modong Sea, so that the entire Chinese maritime frontier can be guarded.

There are also many overseas naval bases of China, such as one in Busan, North Korea, one in Yokosuka, one in Sasebo, one in the Northern Mariana Islands, one in the Marshall Islands, and one in the Caroline Islands. One in Moresby in New Guinea, one in the Solomon Islands, one in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, one in the Maldives, one in Dubai in the Persian Gulf, one in Socotra, one in Mukarla, Yemen, and one in Cyprus in the Mediterranean.

In addition to the above. China also has land military bases and air bases in many countries, but they are smaller than these bases.

Xiao Zhenlei believes that these are not enough, the closer the base is to China, the smaller the effect on foreign deterrence, and only the closer the military base is to foreign countries, the greater the deterrent to foreign countries, so he believes that it is necessary to extend the naval sphere of influence outward.

First of all, it is necessary to carry out friendly cooperation with Mexico, Cuba, Honduras, Panama, and several sovereign countries in South America in the Americas, support them in their struggle against European colonial powers such as Britain and France, and find ways to lease a place near the sea as a military base in these countries, and gradually expand their naval power outward.

In this way, European and American countries will be too busy to take care of themselves and will not be able to compete with China, and European and American countries will not be monolithic, and there are contradictions and disagreements between them.

Xiao Zhenlei decided to advance the main force of the naval fleet outside the defensive circle, first breaking the previous layout, he decided to divide the coastal guard of the entire naval fleet into seven small formations, the first formation was deployed in the South Pacific waters with the Marshall Islands as the base, the second formation was deployed in Hokkaido, Vladivostok and other bases in Japan, and was active in the North Pacific waters, the third formation was deployed in the Bering Sea, the Modong Sea and the Kara Sea, the fourth formation was deployed in New Guinea and the Solomon Islands, and the fifth formation was deployed in West Malaya, In the areas of Burma and Bangladesh, the sixth formation is deployed in the South China Sea and the area south of Wan Island, and the seventh formation is deployed in the areas of the East China Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the Bohai Sea.

The main fleet of the naval fleet was organized into seven fleets, and the first, second, and third were deployed in the Pacific Ocean. The headquarters of these fleets are located in Yokosuka, Saipan, and Moresby in Japan. The deployment of the Fourth Fleet in the Kara Sea, with the headquarters in Dixon. The Fifth and Sixth Fleets are deployed in the Indian Ocean, with headquarters in Malacca and Mascot, Oman, respectively, and the Seventh Fleet in the Mediterranean, with headquarters in Larnaca, Cyprus.

In his plan, each coast guard was equipped with one cruiser, two destroyers of no more than a thousand tons, three gunboats, two torpedo boats, a supply ship. Each detachment of the main fleet is equipped with three or four battleships, two or three aircraft carriers, twelve light and heavy cruisers, twenty-four destroyers, twenty-four torpedo ships, twelve supply ships, and twelve submarines.

But Xiao Zhenlei also knows that for now, the navy is still the king of battleships, so it is common sense for each detachment to be equipped with three or four battleships, but with the passage of time and the performance of fighters has been greatly improved, aircraft carriers will completely replace battleships, so even if these seven fleets are reorganized and equipped, those battleships that are already old will be gradually retired every few years in the future, until all battleships are completely withdrawn from the naval sequence, and the navy will no longer build battleships from now on.

According to Xiao Zhenlei's idea of this kind of establishment, even if the equipment is completely reorganized, it will not be able to catch up with the British Royal Navy fleet in terms of total tonnage, but it will definitely be much stronger than the US Navy, and with the rapid development of science and technology, the number of naval ships and tonnage is no longer the standard for measuring a country's naval strength, and only the striking capability can measure a country's naval strength.

Until now, European and American countries have still not found the huge strike ability to use fighters on aircraft carriers, after all, the current fighter technology of European and American countries has only gotten rid of the original technology, although it has been developed to a certain extent in the war, but it is not enough to use it on aircraft carriers, that is, it is impossible to let fighters take off and land on aircraft carriers, but China is different, China has already used carrier-based aircraft technology for aircraft carriers at the beginning of the war, and has gradually trained a naval fleet that has always had long-range strike capabilities.

The combat effectiveness of the battleships in the Chinese Navy is also low and should not be underestimated, and their combat capability is at least no worse than that of the most advanced battleships of various countries today, but their real role in the Chinese Navy is only to cover up for aircraft carriers.

As far as the current strength of the Chinese navy is concerned, it is completely possible to complete the reorganization of the fleet after the war, and there is no need to continue to build new warships to increase the tonnage of the navy, but the army's weapons and equipment must always be updated in real time, and there is no way to build one in wartime, and put it into battle, but after the battle is over, some old warships must be eliminated every year and some new warships must be equipped, which is necessary to maintain or increase the combat effectiveness of the navy, unless other countries are not developing and building new warships.

In fact, to say that most of the navy forces are in an idle state at present, and only a small number of them are on combat duty in the Mediterranean; in fact, to say that most of the navy forces are in an idle state means that they have not participated in operations, but they are not idle, and they are conducting various kinds of training every day; after all, the time for the establishment of the Chinese navy is too short, and the development is too rapid, resulting in many admirals and officers and men who do not have much experience and are not very familiar with the sea. But after several years of hard study and training, the Chinese Navy is no longer a rookie. (To be continued......)
