While the 1st and 2nd Army Corps were in action, battleship No. 105 welcomed guests for the first time.

Wilmington and William joined forces, set out from the embassy, walked through the ruined harbor, and then, under the watchful eye of the embassy soldiers, boarded a gunboat close to the harbor and approached the battleship 105.

The huge ships that are getting closer and closer in front of me are three in one breath, lying horizontally in Tokyo Bay, with a huge body like a mountain, and the closer you get closer, the more you can clearly feel the huge pressure it brings.

The most powerful war machine in human history, the crystallization of technology and wisdom, born of a terrifying sea war monster.

In particular, the three new battleships in front of him are much larger than any warship in the world.

The neat hull of the ship, not complicated to sit in, gives people a hedgehog-like feeling, but more like a gentleman, wearing an elegant dress, looks so comfortable, not ostentatious, and does not give people a sense of pure violence.

The fully restrained hull, the clean and neat building of the ship, the absence of the unsightly huge chimney, and the black muzzle of the guns, shelled for several hours, the white paint of all the guns is still white.

And the clean and compact bridge, without the high lookouts that are common to warships of various countries, only a huge strange three. The angular iron arc-shaped device gives people a very novel feeling.

But the most eye-catching thing is the four main guns that have been quieted down, the twin main guns, the 355 mm barrels, and the two divisions in the front and two in the stern.

This layout gives people the feeling of being eye-catching, this is a very beautiful and powerful super battleship.

For Wilmington in particular, it was a deep feeling.

Because the new warships that Britain is building in full swing are designed according to the three super warships in front of them, they also adopt a twin-mounted four-turret layout with two fronts and two backs, and the caliber is also unified to 330 mm.

However, this brand-new battleship, which was named the Dreadnought class by the British, is still far inferior to the warship of this class in front of it.

Not to mention that the firepower is one level weaker, in terms of tonnage, it is at least about 10,000 tons lighter than the super battleship in front of you.

The most important thing is the power system, and the British still don't understand what type of power system is installed under the small chimneys of these battleships under Fan Yize.

The only thing that is certain is that the use of oil as a power source, but the British were able to come up with the most advanced steam turbine power system, although they succeeded in abandoning coal, but the power output was far less, and even the chimney could not be reduced or discarded.

According to the officers and sailors of the redeemed Far East Fleet, they clearly understood the warship in front of them, but in Wilmington's opinion, it was far from enough.

If it was before yesterday, he didn't have such an idea, at that time he firmly believed that the mighty British Empire would sooner or later catch up with Fan Yize's weak technological lead at the moment.

However, at this moment, this super battleship with a displacement of nearly 30,000 tons in front of him, in the eyes of Wilmington, it is too difficult for the British to catch up.

The more beautiful the battleship, the more it represents the technical level of the shipbuilding industry, whether it is power, artillery, full rearmament protection, Wilmington knows very well that his old classmate Fisher wants to catch up, without more than ten years, it is simply impossible.

Even when the construction of the Senseless-class battleships was being built, the construction of the next class of stronger battleships began at the same time, but Wilmington was really not optimistic about his country at the moment.

Fan Yize is too mysterious, if you say that this kind of super battleship in front of you can catch up, but who knows, Fan Yize still has hole cards in his hand.

Just like the other side exposed today, Wilmington believes that from today's point of view, any country in the world must retain the deepest awe for Fan Yize from the bottom of his heart.

Before today, the world only knew that Fan had a navy under his command, two super battleships that made all the battleships in the world obsolete, and equally advanced cruisers and destroyers.

This navy alone has already kept all the naval powers awake at night.

As a result, the feared mysterious fleet is not only the dozen or so warships that have been exposed before, but the more powerful forces have always been hidden by Fan Yize.

When he heard the news, Wilmington was extremely glad that the British Empire did not do its best to fight Fan Yize again.

"How does it feel?"

William didn't have Wilmington's complicated idea that he could almost simulate a table of mahjong, but sighed at the powerful navy in front of him, and asked Wilmington beside him when he was close to the 105 ship.

"The navies of the whole world are outdated, and the navy of no country is an opponent of the navy in front of them." Wilmington sighed heartily, and added: "However, the most terrifying thing is that the mystery of this navy, especially after knowing that there are three fleets, no one knows whether there is a fourth fleet, or even a fifth fleet. ”

William nodded approvingly, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The Japanese Combined Fleet has become a paradise for fish at the bottom of the sea, and even the mainland has been attacked, I really don't know what to say when I face Fan Yize next?" ”

"We'll know when we meet." Wilmington didn't think much about it, because it wasn't what he could think about.

As for William, he thought about it early in the morning, mainly because he was completely unaware of the attitude at home.

Early this morning, knowing that it was the navy under Fan Yize's command that shelled Tokyo, he immediately went to Fan Yize's home in Tokyo.

Although Fan Yize was not in Tokyo, there were always people in the Tokyo manor that he bought from the Germans.

It was not the first time that William had dealt with the people left behind, and he also used it as a place to contact Fan Yize.

And the news that William learned was all from the manor, not only knew that Fan Yize had three fleets under his command, but also knew that all three fleets were involved in military operations against Japan, and also knew that the army units under Fan Yize had successfully occupied Sasebo and were already attacking Nagasaki.

After learning about this situation, William immediately proposed that he hoped to meet Fan Yize quickly, but was told that Fan Yize was in the Third Fleet in Tokyo Bay, and also ordered that if anyone came to ask for a meeting, they could go to the Third Fleet to meet.

With a clear answer, William could not sit still, he wanted to know the first-hand information and situation, and then report the situation to Washington, as for which side the United States would stand, it was not up to him to decide.
