The navy of New China is really weak to the extreme, except for some old-fashioned second-hand gunboats and warships converted from civilian ships, the only one worth mentioning is the cruiser Chongqing. Unlike history, the ship was not forced to sink after the uprising, but survived under the protection of the Northeast Red Air Force, and after the founding www.biquge.info of the People's Republic of China, this largest and most advanced cruiser became the number one trump card of New China.

It's just that the Chongqing is also invincible with two fists and four hands, and it is unrealistic to expect her to sweep the Kuomintang Navy alone. So the Chongqing is active in the Bohai Sea most of the time, and it is relatively safe there.

And on the southeast coast, it is basically the world of the People's Party navy, especially after the deterioration of relations between the United States and the Soviet Union, in order to strengthen the blockade line of the first island chain, the United States gave some of the remaining escort destroyers of World War II to Chiang "aid".

These World War II escort destroyers may be cheap consumables for the U.S. Navy and even other world-class or second-rate navies, but they are still very advanced for the Scraping People's Party, and for the T Communist Party, they are even more high-ranking killers. If it weren't for the existence of this group of escort destroyers, PLA would have bravely sailed wooden sailing ships to liberate Zhoushan Islands and Hainan Island.

Therefore, for the T Communist Party, if it wants to complete the reunification of the motherland, the first thing to do is to develop a maritime force capable of crossing the sea and fighting. So on the occasion of the founding of the People's Republic of China in the first year, Zhou Gong visited the Soviet Union again, hoping that Big Brother would give support.

What the Communist Party wants is not only warships, but also hopes to develop its own defense industry, so this time it is not only warships that are introduced, but also hopes that the Soviet Union can help build a number of defense industries.

The former item was relatively simple for the USSR, maybe the USSR could not afford cruisers and destroyers, but the USSR really could afford frigates. Previously, in order to ensure the smooth flow of the North Atlantic route, the Soviet Union built more than 200 36 and 36 improved frigates, but now that World War II has been won, the importance of the North Atlantic route no longer exists, and it is of little significance to continue to retain such a large number of escort forces. However, the Soviet Union did not have as much money as the United States and Great Britain, and could dismantle this batch of new ships, which generally did not exceed 10 years of service, so in addition to retaining a part, the rest was to aid as much as possible or sell fraternal countries at friendly prices.

And Huaxia is definitely the most important partner of the Soviet Union, so the ranking of the T Communist Party on this gift list is very high. The first countries to accept Type 36 frigates were Huaxia, Poland, Greece, Romania and Bulgaria. Poland received 12 ships, Greece 10, Romania and Bulgaria 8 each. For these small countries, these dozen Type 36 frigates are enough, but for a large country like China, a dozen Type 36 frigates are really not enough.

More than a dozen ships of tens of thousands of kilometers of coastline thrown into it can be said to be full of holes, and for Huaxia, the demand for Type 36 frigates is about 100. At least 50 of these frigates are required. Therefore, when the Soviet Union said that it would provide 12 Type 36 frigates to Huaxia, Zhou Gong expressed his heartfelt gratitude, but also said realistically: "These frigates are far from enough for us, Huaxia has a long coastline, and Huaxia basically does not have the ability to build its own naval ships, and we are still facing a serious maritime threat." So we don't just need more corvettes, we want to gain production capacity! ”

This requirement made the Soviet side a little embarrassed, the Type 36 frigate is really nothing to the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union's next key aircraft carriers, nuclear submarines and destroyers, the batch of Type 36 frigates that were in service in the thirties have been used with high intensity, and they have also reached the period of high incidence of problems, but the new generation of destroyers and frigates has not yet been mass-produced, and the Soviet Union also needs to maintain more than 100 Type 36 frigates as base patrols and offshore anti-submarine forces, according to the needs of China, The remaining Type 36 frigates also have to give a third smaller, which is really a bit much.

In the beginning, the political . The government is planning to refuse, hoping that Zhou Gong will be impatient for a few years, and when the new generation of frigates of the Soviet Union is put into large-scale service, there will naturally be more Type 36 frigates. However, under the influence of Li Xiaofeng. In the end, the government decided to make a change, gritted its teeth and transferred 12 Type 36 frigates to Huaxia for assistance, and promised that if Huaxia was willing to pay for them, the Soviet Union was willing to produce new Type 36 frigates for Huaxia and transfer technology.

This suggestion made Zhou Gong overjoyed, although the Type 36 frigate is not so advanced, but it is also up to people to say that it is not advanced first, for Huaxia, which is poor in naval technology, if it can obtain the production technology of Type 36 frigates, it means that from scratch, Huaxia will be able to obtain the welding technology of military ships, medium-speed diesel engine technology, and small and medium-caliber artillery technology. Although it's not free, even if Huaxia is willing to spend money before, there is no place to learn!

What's more, the Soviet side also said that it would not need to give all the cash from Huaxia, but would use barter to offset part of the payment, and then offset the rest with low-interest loans from the Soviet Union. When this suggestion was transmitted back to China, Taizu quickly agreed.

Soon, another batch of 12 Type 36 frigates departed from Vladivostok to Dalian to deliver PLA, and the accompanying Soviet advisers immediately began training Chinese sailors, optimistically estimating that they would be able to form combat effectiveness within a year.

Of course, the Type 36 frigate is still too low-grade, this is a low-grade handyman who does dirty work. It's okay to bully the Scraping Kuomintang's miscellaneous fish ships, but when it comes to higher-grade destroyers, it's too powerful.

In response to this situation, Zhou Gong also hoped to introduce Soviet destroyers, and Li Xiaofeng naturally turned on the green light, but his suggestion to Zhou Gong was: "You can introduce a few artillery torpedo destroyers in small quantities, and about four are enough." Rather than spending a lot of money on a bunch of backward products that will soon be eliminated, it is better to wait for the new generation of Soviet destroyers to enter service before buying them. ”

This suggestion made Zhou Gong very moved, because when a certain immortal pit Vietnam before, he was killed by a black hand, so that now Ho Chi Minh has no good words when he mentions someone. At that time, Zhou Gong thought that someone had changed and became mercenary. But now it seems that someone's attitude towards Huaxia is the same, it is quite friendly and caring.

Some comrades may say that this is over, someone just agreed to Huaxia to buy the most advanced destroyers of the Soviet Union, and this should be grateful to Dade?

In fact, I can't talk about gratitude, but there is definitely a favor. Because not everyone can buy the most advanced weapons in a country, look at the JSF project of the US imperialists in later generations, which is a signboard of international cooperation, so that all allies have paid for the development. But in the end, did the F-35's flight control source code and other high-tech technologies be made available to the allies?

No. Americans are not at all generous when they should cherish themselves. If you look at the loyal dog of the US imperialists, Japan, what it really wants to buy is the F22, and it shows that the price is negotiable. But the U.S. imperialists would rather shut down the production line than sell. Doesn't that tell the story?

Therefore, Li Xiaofeng expressed his willingness to transfer the latest destroyers to Huaxia, which is quite a favor, and we have to say one thing about it.

So what was the state of this newest Soviet destroyer? First, the displacement is really not small, most of the standard displacement of Soviet destroyers in World War II is between 2,500 tons and 3,000 tons. And the standard displacement of this latest Type 47 destroyer has already reached 3800 tons. Don't underestimate these 800 tons, a displacement of 800 tons can already do a lot of things. The ship has a waterline length of 141 meters, a width of 15.6 meters, a standard displacement of 3,800 tons, a normal displacement of 4,100 tons, a maximum speed of 32 knots, and a cruising range of 18 knots of 4,000 nautical miles.

The most striking thing about the Type 47 destroyer was its armament, which was meagrely thin by World War II standards, armed with a twin 100mm gun and without any torpedoes. Instead, a double-arm launcher was installed on the deck behind the front main gun to launch the naval version of the S-125 anti-aircraft missile (also known as the SA-N-1 Goa anti-aircraft missile) under the test, with 48 rounds in the magazine under the launcher. Two quadruple anti-ship missile launchers are installed near Yanchong in the middle of the hull for launching P-15 anti-ship missiles. The missile has a maximum range of 50 km, a warhead weighing 350 kg and a maximum speed of Mach 0.8. As for the aft deck, there is a helicopter hangar, which can carry a state-of-the-art Sikorsky anti-submarine helicopter.

The ship has changed the previous style of the Su warship stacking weapons on top of each other, except for the huge radar and some antennas, the overall style can be said to be quite concise. So much so that some old navies thought that the ship lacked domineering and could not deter the enemy.

Because of the application of many new technologies, especially the application of the most advanced electronic technology, the research and development of the ship has taken a lot of effort to solve problems that have never been encountered before, such as the electronic compatibility of radar antennas. On the whole, it can be said that it was a battleship that created a new style for the Soviet Navy.

The only regret of the Type 47 destroyer is that the power is still relatively old, and the steam turbine is still used, because the more advanced gas turbine is quite unreliable, and when the Type 55 destroyer is later, with the use of lighter gas turbines, its armament has been enhanced.

Of course, the more new technology is used, the more expensive the Type 47 becomes. In accordance with the Army. According to the Soviet Union's long-term plan for aircraft carriers, 10 aircraft carriers should be equipped with at least 40 destroyers, and counting destroyers that perform other tasks in peacetime, the Soviet Union needs at least 50 destroyers to be sufficient.

However, the Type 47 did not produce forty or fifty ships, and the final production number was 12 ships. The first ship, the Fierce, began construction in 1948 and entered service in 1951, while the last ship began construction in 1954 and commissioned in 1956. The Mediterranean Fleet, which is mainly equipped in the Atlantic Fleet.

Huaxia, on the other hand, ordered the first batch of two Type 47 destroyers in 1950, followed by a second batch of four in 1954, the last two of which were assembled at Huaxia Jiangnan Shipyard and Dalian Shipyard.

These six Type 47 destroyers, which had regional air defense capabilities, constituted the backbone of China's air defense throughout the fifties and sixties, and shot down intrusive US fighters in the later naval and air conflicts in the East China Sea.

Huaxia not only increased its efforts to bring in reinforcements from the Soviet Union in the navy, but also comprehensively modernized the army, introducing a series of weapons and equipment, including the T-54/T-55 and AS-30 assault rifles. At the same time, the People's Party is still using the surplus materials from the US imperialists in World War II, and in this round, the scraping army not only lags behind PLA in morale, technology and tactics, but also can't even use the only fig leaf and American weapon in the past.

From mid-1948 to mid-1949, this fierce battle of strangulation in the sea lasted for a whole year, during which the Scrape People's Party constantly tried to import the most advanced weapons and equipment from the United States to resist the tide of reunification, but neither the F-80 nor the F-84 nor the F-86 could face the increasing number of MiG-15s. After nearly a year of attrition, the People's Party finally reached the point of exhaustion, and the air force was almost completely annihilated, and it gave up air supremacy on the battlefield in an embarrassed manner.

After losing air supremacy, the Scraping People's Party also tried to rely on the superiority of the navy to resist stubbornly, but in the face of the Type 36 frigate group that had just formed combat effectiveness, the Wanguo brand scraping the People's Party Navy really had no advantage, not to mention that the PLA Air Force also introduced the Il-28 and the supporting P-10 air-launched anti-ship missiles from the Soviet Union. At this time, Jiang could only transfer his family to the United States on the one hand, and frantically dig holes around the Zhoushan Islands on the other hand, trying to continue to shrink the local rats.

In September 1949, after several months of preparation, PLA ground troops landed on the Zhoushan Islands in one fell swoop, and in the next three months, they gradually cleared the Scraping People's Party troops hiding in the caves, and completely liberated the Zhoushan Islands before the Spring Festival in 1950. As for Hainan Island, because the sea and air strength of the Gui system was weaker than Chiang's, it had already been liberated in mid-1949.

In other words, by 1950, the Kuomintang regime, which had ruled China for more than 20 years, was officially declared extinct, and only a few high-ranking Kuomintang officials fled to the United States in Xiangjiang to establish a so-called government-in-exile before its collapse. But the world knows that this is the same as self-deception and pointlessness.

After the comprehensive reunification of the motherland, the sovereignty issue faced by the Communist Party of China has been resolved internally, and the only thing that makes the people of the whole country a little unhappy is the Xiangjiang and Haojiang issues. Whether or not these two pieces of land can be recovered is related to the honor of the Chinese nation, and only by eliminating these two rotten sores can we be regarded as comprehensively resolving the national humiliation since the end of the Qing Dynasty.

However, it is not so easy to solve the problem of Xiangjiang Haojiang, and the world has always had the right to speak only with the backing of national strength. After the previous battle of crossing the river, PLA swept away the leaves all the way to the coast of Guangdong, but it stopped at the Xiangjiang River and Haojiang, not because the T Communist Party did not want to take the opportunity to take back them, but because the strength was not enough.

Even with the support of the Soviet Union, it would be very difficult to recover Xiangjiang and Haojiang, after all, Britain is a skinny camel bigger than a horse, and not everyone can make the British deflated. Therefore, Taizu and they were still very cautious about this issue, and after solving the problem of scraping the People's Party, Xiangjiang and Haojiang were put on the agenda.

Taizu first consulted the Soviet Union, after all, New China is still very weak, and it is still a little unqualified to wrestle with Britain, and if there is no support from the Soviet Union, this matter will be even more difficult.

There were also different opinions within the Soviet Union on this issue, and the faction headed by Sverdlov believed that the desire of the Chinese side to recover the motherland could be understood, but they believed that the timing was not ideal. It is believed that at this time there is still a contradiction between British imperialism and US imperialism, and that these two are not wearing the same pants, and that the contradiction between the two greatest imperialisms must be exploited to break through each of them. He believes that as long as Britain and the United States are not completely in the same boat, they should not focus on Britain and can only attack British imperialism after eliminating the most dangerous form of American imperialism.

To put it bluntly, Sverdlov is not as impulsive and confident as he was in 1945, not believing that the Soviet Union could fight Britain and the United States at the same time. Now that the confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union has been in full swing, it is not appropriate to offend Britain too much, otherwise the British and American alliances will make the Soviet Union very passive. According to his ideas, the Communist Party should be patient, should keep its head in obscurity, immerse itself in development for 10 years, and it is more appropriate to talk about the issue of Xiangjiang and Haojiang after 10 years.

It cannot be said that Sverdlov's suggestion was wrong, and to be honest, his suggestion is also in line with objective reality. At this time, China was too weak, and since the end of the Qing Dynasty, warlord secession, civil wars and anti-Japanese wars have left the country in full sight. With a severely difficult economy and almost no decent industry, it would be unwise to provoke Britain in such a situation. It is better to bury your head in development, and it is not too late to argue with Britain when you have the confidence.

If Sverdlov meant it, then the T side really didn't play at all. But at this time, the Soviet Union was no longer Sverdlov's master, and since the failure of the NEP, Sverdlov's voice has gradually decreased, especially as Poland's NEP has been carried out vigorously, Sverdlov has become more and more embarrassed.

As a certain immortal gradually dominates the right to speak, on many issues, if a certain immortal does not make a decision, Xiao Si has to dry there to blow the cold wind. For example, on the issue of Xiangjiang and Haojiang, Li Xiaofeng's attitude is completely different from that of Sverdlov, and he believes that it is easier to take them back now......
