Everyone used the hats or scarves in their hands to wave desperately towards the 'Sea Sovereign', expressing their love for Emperor Fang Xiaoyu in their hearts, and some older people even knelt down and kowtowed to the 'Sea Sovereign'.

At this time, Fang Xiaoyu was on the highest sea view platform of the 'Sea Monarch', looking at the beautiful scenery on the opposite ship through the thick bulletproof glass, and these days, the same scene on the passenger ships passing by is without exception.

Fang Xiaoyu, who had just finished punching, wiped the sweat on his head with a towel, and although he knew that the other party couldn't see it, he still waved his hand to those fanatical people, and his heart was full of pride at this time. This sense of satisfaction in slowly building a declining country into a great power was very useful to him, and the fanaticism of the people not only satisfied his vanity, but also made him feel that his responsibilities were heavier.

"Isn't it satisfying to see the people's love for you?" A soft female voice sounded from behind Fang Xiaoyu, Fang Xiaoyu looked back, Xia Tingyun was standing behind him with a smile, and Queen Xia Tingwei and other concubines were also standing not far away to cover their mouths and snicker.

Speaking of which, Fang Xiaoyu was a little irresponsible this time, he actually had a whim, and planned to take his concubines to see the prosperity of China Island. Just because he had promised the concubines this condition during the World War, and when he was gossiping with the concubines, he happened to talk about China Island and involved the previous promise, and they suddenly found that among all the concubines, Elena had only set foot on the land there, but it was still a barren land at that time, and she did not know the achievements of the construction there over the years.

Fang Xiaoyu's description of China Island has always made Xia Tingwei and other women quite fascinated, so after Fang Xiaoyu proposed, all the women naturally unanimously supported it. Fang Xiaoyu has always been very kind to his wives, and he immediately picked his son very irresponsibly, letting the teenage crown prince Fang Ruijun supervise the country, along with taking care of his younger brothers and sisters, who were already as many as eleven siblings.

Accompanied by a passenger liner and an escort fleet carrying the newly admitted members of the China Foundation, the 'Sea Monarch' arrived at Moore Harbor on China Island after half a month's voyage. Unlike the passenger fleet, Fang Xiaoyu's 'Sea Monarch' did not dock at a civilian port, but sailed directly into the nearby military port belonging to the Iron Army.

"Young Master, you're here." Fu Mingcheng and Li Zhonggong had been waiting at the military port for a long time.

Fang Xiaoyu said: "Didn't I tell you not to greet you every time, we are all old brothers, don't always make these false things." ”

Fu Mingcheng said with a smile: "Young master, don't blame me, I'm here to inspect the construction of the new aircraft carrier." ”

Li Zhonggong also said: "I also have something, I am here to prepare to tow your 'Sea Monarch' into the dock for refit. ”

Fang Xiaoyu said: "My ship is in good condition, what is the modification?" ”

Li Zhong arched and said: "Young Master, your safety is the most important, naturally you have to give priority to updating your ship with the best weapons, not to mention that this time is different from the past, now the planes are so advanced, if some planes are bombed, your ship will not last long." ”

Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "Then what are you going to do?" ”

Li Zhonggong took out a thick document and said: "I plan to place a large number of anti-aircraft guns in the top compartment, remove the hidden main guns on the deck, and install anti-ship missiles in the side compartments. ”

Fang Xiaoyu's eyes widened and said, "What? Have anti-ship missiles already been developed? ”

Li Zhonggong said with a smile: "It's our latest product, and the volume is still a bit large, I calculated that there are about eight missiles that can be installed on the ship." ”

Fang Xiaoyu said: "What are the performance indicators? ”

Li Zhonggong said: "Using the guidance of the mid-stage autopilot and the end-stage active radar homing, the cruising altitude is 100 to 300 meters, the cruising speed is Mach 0.9, the maximum range is 42 kilometers, and the warhead weighs 500 kilograms. It's a little bigger, six and a half meters long, and weighs 2.5 tons. ”

Fang Xiaoyu rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "This is already very good, you can quickly modify it." With this thing, my Grand Cruiser plan can finally get to work. Fang Xiaoyu thought of the plan for the construction of the 'Hongyuan' class cruiser that was stopped because he was waiting for the progress of missile development, but with the setting of missiles, the original structural design of the warship was no longer applicable, and he had to redesign the warship.

Fang Xiaoyu turned his head to Fu Mingcheng and said, "Let's go, I'll go with you to see the new aircraft carrier, and then go to rest." ”

Among the women who followed Fang Xiaoyu, only Elena and Wang Ling, who liked military affairs, followed behind Fang Xiaoyu with a look of hope, and the other concubines were not interested in this, especially Xia Tingyun glared at Fu Mingcheng fiercely.

Fu Mingcheng also had a bitter gourd face, secretly complaining that it was not good for him to find any excuses, knowing that Young Master Lu Dao was quite concerned about the army, and he still found such an excuse, so he could directly offend Fang Xiaoyu's harem.

Although the women lacked interest in military affairs, they were still deeply shocked when they saw the huge warships of the new aircraft carrier. Fang Xiaoyu excitedly looked at the aircraft carrier that had begun to outfit and pointed: "Is there any performance index for him, let me see." ”

"With me." A middle-aged man hurriedly ran over: "Master, the drawings of this type of warship are here." Everyone looked at it, and it turned out that Xu Shouchang had arrived.

Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "You are still presiding over the construction of warships here." ”

Xu Shouchang smiled: "Of course, this is my dream, if I don't often go to the site to supervise, how can I know my own design flaws." As the chief warship designer of the Chinese Empire, Xu Shouchang now designs warships in terms of tonnage and advanced degree, which he could not have imagined at the beginning.

Fang Xiaoyu nodded and sighed: "Your current warship design strength is already stronger than mine. ”

Xu Shouchang smiled embarrassedly: "Where can I, how can I be stronger than Master." ”

Fang Xiaoyu waved his hand and said: "What I said is true, the design of warships in the future will depend on you professional designers, and I can't help it." Xu Shouchang scratched his head embarrassedly and laughed.

Fang Xiaoyu's words are not flattering, although he has designed many excellent warships before, but they are all copied from the classic ship types he knew back then. The current warships are getting closer and closer to the scientific and technological level on the earth, and the detailed structure of those advanced warships was kept secret in the previous life.

Therefore, when his own materials are not used, it depends on the skills of a large number of warship designers accumulated by the Chinese Empire in the past 20 years, which is why he has been cultivating the independent design ability of these designers.

However, to Fang Xiaoyu's gratification, after the retirement of the older generation of designers invited from various countries, the second and even third generation designers led by Xu Shouchang are fully capable of designing warships, and because they have stronger learning and acceptance ability, it is easier to design modern new warships.

Fang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "It seems that the warship you designed is not bad, let me tell me how the performance is first." ”

Xu Shouchang said with a smile: "Young Master, since you asked the 'Governor' class aircraft carrier to equip only the allies, I began to redesign it, this warship was designed by me and many designers for more than a year after the master gave me the advice before. I know that Young Master Dao thinks that the 'Governor' level is a bit small, so I designed this 60,000-ton big guy. The deck of this type of warship is 295 meters long and 41.5 meters wide. All aircraft in service can be used, including those large Kunpeng 2 bombers. The ship was equipped with twelve boilers and four steam turbines, four shafts of propulsion, 212,000 horsepower, and a speed of 33 knots. It can carry one hundred and thirty-seven aircraft, in addition to eighteen single-barreled 127-mm high-level guns, twenty-one double-40-mm anti-aircraft guns, and twenty-eight twenty-mm single-barreled guns, which is definitely the largest warship now. ”

Fang Xiaoyu touched his chin and said, "But our large warships are limited to 200,000 tons, so we can only equip three." ”

Xu Shouchang said with a smile: "Young master, this imperial navy has restrictions, but the Iron and Blood Army is a private enterprise guard, and this has nothing to do with the country." ”

Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "That's right, how many are you going to build?" ”

Xu Shouchang smiled: "Why do you want ten." ”

Fang Xiaoyu was taken aback: "Why didn't you build so many aircraft carriers?" If you have a lot of money, you have nowhere to spend it? ”

Fu Mingcheng on the side is now in charge of the overall situation of the Iron and Blood Army, but he does not want to see the reduction of this warship, he immediately helped: "Young Master, the quota of the Imperial Navy is so small, our Iron and Blood Army must maintain enough military strength, if there is another war, we can't suffer." ”

Fang Xiaoyu touched his chin and thought for a while: "That's too much, just build eight ships, three of which are from the Imperial Navy." Fang Xiaoyu directly discounted the number of buildings of the Iron Blood Army.

Seeing Xu Shouchang's increasingly bitter face, Fang Xiaoyu comforted: "Don't put on such a face, it won't let you be idle, now that there are anti-ship missiles, the kind of Hongyuan-class cruiser originally designed is no longer applicable, fortunately, only thirteen have just been built, you hurry up and design a new cruiser, I estimate that two hundred will be built, of which one hundred and fifty will be for the Imperial Navy, and the rest will be iron-blooded." Remember not to install so many main guns, leave more space for anti-aircraft guns and anti-ship missiles. ”

Listening to Fang Xiaoyu's words, Xu Shouchang immediately smiled and said, "It's still the young master's big money, I'll arrange the design work." ”

Xu Shouchang ran away in a hurry, and Fang Xiaoyu didn't need to look at other equipment, except for instructing Fu Mingcheng to ask the Naval Design Bureau to improve the destroyer under construction and strive to press a few anti-ship missiles, there was only a research problem of gas turbines. Then Fang Xiaoyu took a group of concubines and drove towards China Town, the newly built largest city on China Island, in a luxury car.
