Chapter 53: Training the Navy
At 22 o'clock in the evening, Ye Xingwen coaxed Lux Klein to sleep, and looked at P.L.A.N.T in the dark and fell into deep thought.
Ye Xingwen did not feel anxious about the war between the Chinese Federation and the Eurasian Federation, because he had confidence in Ye Xinglong, the MS production in the Chinese Federation had already been on the right track, and it was only a matter of time before the army's combat effectiveness was crushed by the Eurasian Federation, and he believed that Ye Xinglong would make arrangements.
Ye Xingwen was worried about the Qinhuangdao spaceport under construction, the Chinese Federation drove the Republic of East Asia to the other side of the strait, but there has been no further action, and there is no strategic deployment for Benzi Island, the reason is that the Chinese Federation does not have a fleet.
The absence of a fleet means that there is no sea dominance, which means that Ye Xingwen will not be able to launch a strike on the maritime country, and his own port will be completely exposed to the enemy's vision.
It is true that because of Ye Xingwen, the Chinese Federation leads the world in the development of MS, but that is only because Ye Xingwen is engaged in research in this area, nothing more.
Although Ye Xingwen's knowledge is quite broad, but theory is only theory after all, and real technical practice requires a large number of high-quality manpower, and D.S.S.D's ability to provide technical support for MS is already the limit, and this kind of thing is still more than enough to fight. What's more, with the changes of the times, the things that Ye Xingwen learned before also need to be advanced and developed, and Ye Xingwen said that his time is simply not enough.
After absorbing a large number of adjusters, the research and development of warships has been put on the agenda, but it will take time, if the fleet of the Atlantic Federation directly sails to the Qinhuangdao Spaceport for a round of bombing at this time, this project that has invested a lot of money will be destroyed in an instant, which is completely unacceptable to Ye Xingwen.
'How can I solve this problem quickly?' ’
Lying on the bed and frowning, Ye Xingwen couldn't think of a solution at all, the battleship is not something that can be built overnight, even the relatively simple MS, Ye Xingwen has been arranged for several years before he is on the right track.
Can we only count on the fleets of other countries?' But it's impossible......
Ye Xingwen knew that ZAFT would plan to suppress the spaceport in the earth's sphere, and the earth union would lose most of the sea control on the earth, but because Ye Xingwen was a Klein faction, he issued an absolute neutrality statement at the request of Sigal Klein for the idea of the Klein faction. Ye Xingwen can have economic and technological exchanges with P.L.A.N.T, but he must not form an alliance with ZAFT, because that would be equivalent to slapping himself in the face and would lose credibility internationally.
In the same way, Ye Xingwen could not count on the support of the Pacific Union, because the Chinese Federation was absolutely neutral.
'The hateful Guo Qijing, if defeated, will take all the naval technicians away, leaving a group of ordinary workers to make us look at the factory with a bewildered face. ’
"Huh? Ye Jun, are you already awake? ”
Just when Ye Xingwen cursed Guo Qijing in his heart, Seagal Klein's voice brought Ye Xingwen's thoughts back to reality.
"Yes, Uncle Shigal, your body is still so tough." Ye Xingwen replied very politely.
"Old, no younger than you, so mentally injured after such a serious injury."
Hearing this, Ye Xingwen looked at the quilt on his body and smiled awkwardly, it turned out that when he was secretly cursing Guo Qijing, he kicked the quilt up, revealing his upper body wrapped in bandages, looking like he had just finished exercising.
"By the way, Uncle Shigal." Looking at Shigal Klein, Ye Xingwen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "I want to buy a few warships with P.L.A.N.T, can you see it?" ”
Hearing Ye Xingwen's inquiry, Sigal Klein frowned, and he said, "Battleship? The amount of money required for this is not a small amount, and even if one or two ships are bought, there is no way to form a space fleet, and now the armament of ZAFT is also very tight, and it is impossible to supply warships in large quantities. ”
Seeing that Higal Klein misunderstood that he wanted to form a space fleet, Ye Xingwen hurriedly said: "No, Uncle Shigal, you misunderstood, I don't want to form a space fleet, I want to buy the capital ship on the ocean." ”
Only buy capital ships and not frigates, Ye Xingwen understands very well that in the future, MS will replace the role of frigates, and the war is to see whose ace battleship and ace MS are more powerful, and whoever has a strong ace is the winner of the war.
"Huh?" Sigal Klein's brows furrowed even tighter, and he asked, "Ye Jun, did you get some news?" ”
P.L.A.N.T has a warship research specifically for the internal war on Earth, but not long after the research was successful, Ye Xingwen opened his mouth to buy a battleship, which made Shigal Klein have to think about the leakage of intelligence within P.L.A.N.T.
"Huh?" Ye Xingwen was also very confused, he just wanted to ask P.L.A.N.T if there were any warships that could be sold to him to solve his urgent needs, but he didn't expect Shigal Klein to say this.
Seeing Ye Xingwen's bewildered expression, Xigal Klein also knew that he was wrong, so he said: "I'm sorry Ye Jun, I don't want to doubt you, it's just that the timing of your question is too coincidental, so I have to doubt it." ”
"Ah...... No, it's my problem. Ye Xingwen also understood that he had touched the confidentiality of ZAFT, so he turned to say: "Can I select a group of technicians to come to P.L.A.N.T for training?" Now the vast land of the Chinese Federation can not find a few people who can build warships, although we have the design drawings of warships, but no one can use the factory equipment, I am also very helpless. ”
"Huh? It's easy. Sigger Klein didn't expect Ye Xingwen to be worried about such a trivial matter, and immediately said: "It may be difficult to manufacture factory equipment, but if you just teach how to use it, you can be out of school in a month at most." ”
"It's great." Ye Xingwen said with some excitement.
Build your own battleship and buy someone else's? Of course, it is more cost-effective to build it yourself.
"If you don't blow up the Navy Yard, you have a little conscience, and when the time comes, you will be shot directly." ’
Ye Xingwen didn't expect that the things he had been worried about were actually very simple, and his resentment towards Guo Qijing was much smaller.
"Then I'll get in touch now."
Seeing Ye Xingwen's anxious appearance, Shigal Klein smiled and said, "Although you have always been very good, sometimes you are still too frizzy, even if you build a battleship, wouldn't it be ridiculous and generous that no one will open it when the time comes?" Send another batch of cadets to study, it just so happens that the military academy of ZAFT has just graduated from the first batch of cadets, and the training of the next batch of cadets is about to begin. ”
Ye Xingwen scratched his head a little embarrassed, he knew that he was too excited.
"Thank you, Uncle Shigal."
Ye Xingwen's thanks were sincere, but Shigal Klein, as the speaker of a country, was so helpful, and Ye Xingwen confessed that he had to bear a lot of pressure from within P.L.A.N.T, and he would only do it because of Ye Xingwen's relationship with Lux Klein.
"Hehe, Ye Jun doesn't need to thank you, I just hope Ye Jun can remember that strength is used to protect, not to invade."
Ye Xingwen didn't expect that Sigal Klein would suddenly come to such a sentence in the end, he understood that the affairs of the Chinese Federation also made the speaker of the P.L.A.N.T a little worried, afraid that he would become a war fanatic.
Although Ye Xingwen was not a war maniac, Ye Xingwen still replied seriously: "I know ......"
