On the morning of the first day of October, Zhuge Weidao had already returned to his naval aviation governor's palace and sat in his conference room to preside over an emergency meeting.

The current Ming Navy has two Admiralty Mansions directly under the Admiralty and the Naval Staff, both of which are a bit mysterious.

One is the Admiralty's Office of the Naval Aviation, which is nominally in charge of airships, but in fact it is directly in charge of an experimental naval aircraft carrier formation!

And the other is even more mysterious, called the Admiral's House of the Navy's Underwater Engineering. This Admiralty is not even in Beijing, but on Luzon Island, where it is stationed in Little Luzon Bay (Subic Bay), which is not an ordinary forbidden area, but a forbidden area where there are ships patrolling the inner and outer three floors!

"Ladies and gentlemen! The General Staff decided that our navy would step on the red line of the so-called Indian Empire and provoke a world war that was destined to allow our empire to dominate the world after the war and become a real Celestial Empire! And the warriors of our naval aviation will also act with the Nanyang Fleet as the vanguard of the empire! ”

Although he barely slept all night, Zhuge Weidao's spirit was still too good, and when it came to starting a world war, both eyes were about to shine.

I don't know if it's because I was particularly interested in the history books and games of various world wars before the crossing, anyway, Zhuge Weidao is now definitely the most belligerent military G-ist in the entire Ming Dynasty, and in the past five years, he has been wholeheartedly putting the country into the world war. Push inside the pit!

Of course, without his promotion, the Ming Dynasty and the British are actually moving towards confrontation step by step. The root of this antagonism is the explosion of productive forces brought about by the second industrial revolution and the accelerated growth of the population of various industrial countries after the end of the Napoleonic Wars - in the original history, after the second industrial revolution, as long as the world only has Britain, the United States, France, Germany, the four "big industrial countries", plus the three "semi-industrial countries" of Rakshasas, Japan, Austria-Hungary, and some small industrial countries dependent on the big industrial countries, the population of these countries is only 400 million, and it is really impossible to deal with it, and can only fight a war.

And now the Ming Empire alone has 360 million, that is still the data of five years ago, and now it is almost 375 million, if you count the black households that slipped over or sold from the economic depression and overpopulation of Japan in the past two years, I am afraid that there are already 380 million, and the average age of these 380 million people is only 22-25 years old!

It is the time when the blood is strong, don't look at the current public opinion and don't want to fight much, but as soon as the news of the great victory at the front comes back, coupled with the propaganda of public opinion, the belligerent mood will rise immediately.

And Britain, France, the United States, Austria, Prussia, Rakshasa and Japan and other industrialized, semi-industrialized or just touched the threshold of industrialization The average age of the country is also about the same, among which the "smallest" Japan is even only 21 years old, it is difficult not to think of "Showa"!

"Husband, are you up? Did you sleep well? Breakfast is ready for you."

When Lu Benwei, a third-class noncommissioned officer of the navy who was on vacation at home in Shanghai, stretched his waist and got up from his bed, a gentle, sweet, and obedient voice sounded in his ears, which made people feel that their bones could be crisped off.

This is the voice of Miyo Yoshihara, the wife of Sergeant Lu. When Lu Benwei was at home, his wife could always serve him like a big man, not letting him do any housework, just opening his mouth for food, stretching his hands for clothes to enjoy, and even taking a bath could let his wife help rub his back and massage. Every evening. Then enjoy it even more!

According to Miyo herself, according to the customs of her hometown, she was trained to serve men before she got married, and she would play a lot of tricks. But she played very rusty, a little clumsy, and very shy. A pretty face is often flushed with shame, and she also makes herself at a loss. At this time, he will kowtow to Sergeant Lu and apologize, which is really flattering.

And what makes Sergeant Lu even more satisfied is that this wife is absolutely true love for him, not only serving him very well, but also sticking a lot of money to him. He was married to him with 18,900 silver dollars and two large boxes of gold jewelry. Although Sergeant Lu also has his own savings, he is far less rich than Meidai, so the decoration, furniture, household appliances, and later weddings after the house are all paid by Meidai.

Last night, Sergeant Lu had a lot of "fighting" again, and he was exhausted before he fell asleep under his wife's massage, but he didn't expect that the day was not yet bright, and Meiyo had already prepared breakfast, which was also too virtuous.

"Hey, that's not right," Lu Benwei saw the sky outside the window and found that something was wrong, "Meiyo, the sky is not bright, why did you wake me up?" My vacation. It's not over, is it? ”

"Husband, I found this in the mailbox when I went out to buy groceries this morning." Meidai handed Lu Benwei a red envelope as he spoke.

"It's." Sergeant Lu took the envelope and looked at it, and the words "Navy Call Order" were printed on it!

Seeing these words, Lu Benwei knew that his beautiful vacation was over!

"Miyo, me." Lu Benwei looked at his wife reluctantly.

I'm really reluctant!

It's only been a few days since his vacation began, so why did he suddenly send a call-up order to his home? What does that mean? It's not going to be another war, is it?

The thought of fighting made Senior Sergeant Lu a little numb in his scalp.

At this moment, his wife Miyo suddenly spoke: "Husband, the conscription order says that you should report to Wusong Military Port as soon as possible, so I have already packed your luggage for you, and I will leave after breakfast!" ”

What? Lu Benwei frowned, and said in his heart that he didn't have to be like this as soon as possible, right? I should be able to get through it for another day or two.

Miyoko looked at her husband with adoring eyes at this time: "Husband-kun, you are a navy, a brave and fearless naval master major, and my hero. You have to work hard! ”

Encouraged by this warrior who may have admired the samurai Meiyoi since childhood, Lu Benwei had no choice but to nod heavily: "Yes!" I am a navy, I must work hard, I want to kill thieves for the country! ”

Sun, sand, harbor. Shuzhong King aircraft-carrying battle cruiser!

When Lu Benwei finally made up his mind to live up to his wife's expectations and strive to be a good navy, Feng Mingshan, who was on a blind date with him and fell in love with a little beauty who was convex and backward, had already changed into a handsome flight suit, and also hung up the rank of second-class non-commissioned officer, and a group of brothers from the Shuzhong King Flying Brigade stood on this majestic giant warship to welcome the arrival of their Admiral Zhuge Weidao.

Feng Mingshan was not as "lucky" as Lu Benwei, and on the 10th day after his marriage, he bid farewell to his new wife and boarded the Liaodong aircraft carrier and began to receive strict training in carrier-based aircraft take-off and landing and combat flight. After completing the training, he was told that his vacation had been canceled, and he left the home port of Jiaozhou Bay with the Liaodong, and after a few days at sea, he arrived at the military port of the Naha Navy of the Ryukyu Kingdom with a sunny day, white beaches, and a very beautiful view of the harbor. Then he got a promotion, and then he was transferred to the Shuzhong Wang, known as the world's strongest warship, and also got a latest Ssangyong-Type 2 biplane ship-based seaplane!

This is a more powerful aircraft than the original version of the Ssangyong aircraft, with a greater range, faster speed, and the ability to exchange bombs for auxiliary fuel tanks during reconnaissance missions, so that it can fly four or five hundred kilometers.

In addition, the plane also has a spark transmitter installed in the co-pilot's seat, which can send the discovered target radio waves back to the Shuzhong Wang.

It has to be said that as an aircraft born in the 30s of the 19th century, Ssangyong-Type 2 is simply against the sky. If there were such planes in China in history, it is estimated that the Yapian War would have to be fought in London!

And although there are big problems with the design idea of the Shuzhong King - to be precise, this is an aircraft-carrying battle cruiser torpedo boat!

But when Zhuge Weidao boarded this somewhat strange warship with many functions, he still had to admit that it was powerful!

First of all, this standard displacement has dried up to 22,000 tons (2,000 tons more than its prototype) hangar is enough to accommodate 36 Ssangyong - 2!

Secondly, the power system of the Shuzhong King has evolved again, and finally a powerful oil-fired boiler is used, so the power of the steam turbine has also been improved, reaching an "amazing" 46,000 horsepower. Therefore, when it is fully loaded, it can still run at a high speed of 26 knots, and it can indeed be used as a torpedo boat after walking around this battleship with a pit design, but the performance is still amazing, Zhuge Weidao has an idea of driving this aircraft carrier to charge!
