1895 Strength Speaks
When Li returned to Seoul from the Taedong River base, he had the honor of riding the Haehan's Majestic-class battleship, and at that time he was curious to ask Wang Tom, commander of the Haihan Navy, about the cost of such warships. However, Wang Tom did not reveal the detailed figures to him, and only lightly mentioned that the guns equipped on the ship were worth more than 2,000 taels of silver each, and Li consciously did not ask any further.
There are more than 50 ship-borne guns in the majestic class, and if according to Wang Tom, the naval guns alone will cost at least 100,000 taels of silver, and the entire fleet of the existing naval divisions in Korea may not be worth so much. Moreover, the Majesty-class battleship is also equipped with a mysterious mechanical device that can provide propulsion, presumably its value will not be lower than that of the ship's weapons, so a rough calculation, a Majesty-class battleship cannot be taken without hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, Li naturally could only dispel some unrealistic illusions at that time.
But thinking about it, Haihan's first Majestic-class warship was put into service as early as eight years ago, which made Li really feel the difference in strength between the two countries' maritime forces. In fact, there were only two Weiyan-class warships sent by Haihan to Korea to participate in the war, but after cooperating with the other warships in the fleet to blockade the Yalu River and the Liaodong coast, it was enough to suppress all the warships of the Qing army and could not go to sea during the entire war, which greatly increased the logistical pressure on the other side.
Li recalled that he had visited several ports under the rule of Haihan on the way south, but only in the ports of Magong Port in Penghu and Kaohsiung Port in Taiwan did not see the presence of Magong-class warships. However, according to the statement given by Shi Diwen when he visited Zhoushan, the majestic class warships originally stationed in the Fujian Strait went to Korea to participate in the war, and they have not returned to their stations for the time being. In the future, after the completion of the military port facilities at the Datongjiang base, it is very likely that a Majestic-class warship will be stationed in the local area as a sharp weapon for the town, but the specific time will depend on the progress of the construction of its follow-up ships.
For North Korea, the construction and daily cost of the majestic battleship, which is very expensive combat equipment, is out of reach, and poor players can only look up to the big guy if they can't make money. But for Haihan, the only problem that needs to be troubled is probably that the speed of building this class of warships cannot even keep up with the speed of territorial expansion, and for the time being, it is not possible to equip the naval units stationed overseas on demand.
Because the Majestic-class warships built in the later period are equipped with steam power systems, their cost and maintenance costs are indeed far higher than those of traditional sail warships, and the construction period is more than one year. However, although this progress is not enough to meet the requirements of the navy, it is actually basically enough for the external environment that Haihan needs to face.
Each overseas naval base only needs to be stationed with one Majestic-class warship, supplemented by several Exploration-class and Expedition-class ships to form a basic lineup of fleets. Unless it is a large-scale campaign such as the attack on the Isthmus of Golden State or Manila Bay, it is necessary to mobilize fleets from other places, and small fleets stationed in various military ports in peacetime are sufficient to carry out combat missions in most cases. And this year, the coalition fleet went to Korea to fight, and its lineup was actually already a knife to kill chickens, even if the Haihan fleet did not make a move, it would be more than enough to rely on the other three allied fleets to deal with the surface armed forces of the Qing army.
