E: I'm sorry, there are too many things in the company today, I didn't stop until dinner, and I didn't stop until night, so I tried to code another chapter.

Everyone encourages me with monthly passes and recommendations, and if it's the last day, if you don't vote, you'll be a dead bird

On February 2, 19o9 (the first year of Xuantong), Wuchang Shipyard.

"Sudden ......"

The two river gunboats, "Chutai" and "Chuguan," skillfully docked at the internal wharf of the shipyard, and as soon as the gangplank was lowered, the shipyard staff who had been waiting for a long time rushed up with their tools.

The officers and men on the ship immediately began to pack up their things and move everything that could be taken away, such as guns and ammunition, instruments and equipment, beds, bedding, food and drinks, and other items to the storeroom on the shore for temporary storage. After completing the handover procedures, they left the dock area with their personal belongings.

After the two river gunboats are handed over to the shipyard, they will be docked for overhaul and system upgrades.

After the officers and men on the ship walked up to the dock, the captain who walked in front of him with a height of B meters said to the comrades next to him: "Kaicheng, I heard that our new ship has been built, why don't you take advantage of it now to take a look at ......."

Li Ang nodded hurriedly and said excitedly: "Okay, Yuntai, it's great to hear that this batch of new ships is our own from design to manufacturing, as well as all the parts." ”

Comrade Li Ang is only a trainee captain of the "Chutai", and he is still studying at the Zhongshi University (formerly the Wuchang Revolutionary Army Command College) for a half-year study of the intermediate command course. Even Wen Desi himself can't make this exception, although he has the intention to promote this genius, he must also follow the process.

However, Li Ang's ability to enter the University of Chinese Affairs is already a special concern of President Wen, you must know that this is a place to train school officers, and the students are all selected from the top lieutenants on active duty. He was promoted to captain in November last year, and he was selected as a member of the military university in only one month, and if he followed the regular process, he would not have been able to take his turn anyway, and the army is a place that pays great attention to seniority.

The tall captain next to Li Ang was the trainee captain of the "Chuguan" and a classmate of this intermediate naval command course. Because the cultural literacy of naval officers was higher than that of the 6th Army, their courses omitted a lot of basic cultural courses, and the duration of study was shortened from nine months to half a year. Many of the indigenous 6th Army officers like Yi Damao were only blind in the army, and they can't be compared with these guys.

The trainee captain of the "Chuguan" is named Wang Guangxing, and the word is Yuntai. A native of Shunqing Mansion, Sichuan, he was born in a landlord family, his grandfather was a Jinshi, he had been a prefect in Jiangnan, his father was a lifter, and his mother was from another local family. Wang Guangxing was the fourth batch of graduates of the Qing Dynasty Navy to study in Britain and graduated from the Royal Naval College Greenwich, England. After graduating in 19o4, he joined the Qing Dynasty Navy and served as the second officer on the Haiqi, and in 19uu, he was kicked out of the army by the Qing army because of sympathy for the revolution, and returned to his hometown in Sichuan to be unemployed.

Later, Wang Guangxing was recruited to join the Xingke Shipping Company as a captain, and then became an officer of the inland river fleet of the Sichuan Mintuan. During his time at Xingke, he quickly embraced the ideas of scientific socialism and became an activist. After the formation of the navy of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, he was transferred to serve in this newly established naval unit as he wished.

Because of the congenital conditions, the navy of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army was the latest among the three armies, and on the eve of the Sichuan Uprising, the Sichuan People's League River Fleet under Wen Desi had only one self-made inland river shallow gunboat. Produced by Neijiang Shipyard, the standard row is 6o tons, equipped with a 75mm main gun, a UM gun, 4 sets of 4 crew members, a maximum voyage of 15 knots, and a cruising range of 4oo nautical miles. In addition, there are 2 several small armed patrol boats of 3-o tons.

This is also no way, there is no way to build a big ship in Tuojiang, even though Xingke has a lot of "future ship" drawings and strong technical strength, but the congenital conditions are insufficient, and it can only stare at it.

It wasn't until Kyodo took Wuchang and captured the Hubei fleet that it had a decent background, and after the liberation of Hubei, the revolutionary army and navy were officially established. Later, after the establishment of the Wuchang Shipyard, the real naval ship manufacturing began, and the previous ones could only be regarded as "river ships".

Armed boats, outfitting docks.

At this time, two warships were parked on the dock, and engineers and workers were busy like industrious swarms of bees. It can be seen that the outfitting of the two warships is nearing completion, and the final painting work is underway. They are strikingly lived, red under the waterline and white on the sides, and the superstructure and turret are a bright golden yellow, with black barrels. Well, it's a complete copy of the livery of the "Great White Fleet".

The shape of the two warships is very beautiful, completely different from the current vertical ships of the same kind, but the floating ships. The stepped deck looks slender and neat in shape.

"Oh, oh, it's so beautiful" Li Ang and Wang Guangxing stood outside the cordon, looking at them intently like a pervert looking at a beautiful woman, and from time to time there were various unexplained cries from their mouths.

While the two of them were looking at each other, one of the guards came up, saluted them, and said, "Two sir, please show me your identification."

"Ah, give ......" The two hurriedly took out their military ID cards and handed them over.

The guard carefully looked at the military ID cards of the two, returned them, and reminded: "Sir, you have insufficient authority, please do not enter the cordon." ”

Li Ang took the military ID card, nodded and said, "Okay, let's look at them here, do you think they are beautiful?"

"Of course, this is a new type of warship made entirely by us, and of course it is beautiful..."The guard said proudly.

The two continued to "look" and left it aside for the time being, while a group of technicians on the new warship were talking.

"Okay, that's good" Wang Tengpeng stroked the railing, looking at the sister ship of the same class opposite with a smile on his face. He is one of the sworn friends who came back with Lin Shenhe in an airship, he studied ship design, after arriving in Xingke, he worked in the Neijiang Shipyard, limited by the conditions, he could only design some inland boats in Neijiang, until last year he became the deputy chief engineer of the Wuchuan ship, which was considered to be useful.

"Wuchang-class frigates, standard row 1o6 tons, full row 26 tons. The waterline is 75 meters long, B meters wide, and the draft is 6 meters. 4 sets of 26 kW diesel engine drive, twin shaft drive, designed maximum flight 2. 6 knots, cruising 15 knots, cruising range 66 nautical miles. It is armed with 2 1o main guns, 4 twin 4omm secondary guns, and B 2mm machine guns. A triple 55umm torpedo tube. There are also state-of-the-art fire control systems and radio wave detection instruments, as well as state-of-the-art computer ......"

Wang Tengpeng fluently reported the number of this new ship.

"Mr. Wang, it should be a large destroyer, why is it called a frigate?" asked an engineer named Xu Wei.

Xu Wei struggled for a long time for this name, and he really couldn't figure out why a large destroyer would be called a frigate. Although he was one of the main designers of warships of this class, the naming was in charge of the above.

Wang Tengpeng shrugged and replied, "This is set by Chairman Wen himself. Chairman Wen said that only destroyers of more than 26 tons are called frigates, and those of 8o to 26 tons are frigates.

Then, he said: "By the way, Huaixing, the Guangzhou Ship is about to start production, and the superiors want us to transfer a batch of bones to the past." What do you think? Don't you want to design battleships, which can only be built by the big factories by the sea? Martial boats can only build a few small boats here. ”

"I obey the organization's arrangement," Xu Wei hurriedly replied, ....... "Mr. Wang, do you want to go? Don't you also want to design big ships?"

Wang Tengpeng said excitedly: "I, maybe go to Jiangnan, the Jiangnan factory will be rebuilt, all the equipment will be upgraded, and the shipyard will be expanded."

Neijiang, Navy Command.

"Commander, Lieutenant Colonel Limhan has called from Saigon that the French warship has arrived in Cam Ranh Bay. The secretary reported to Wang Tiezhu. “...... It was indeed a warship that we had purchased. There are one Glorious-class armored cruiser, one Joan of Arc-class armored cruiser, one Jichamp-class and one Fort Reno-class protective cruiser, and two Destreme-class protective cruisers. ”

Wang Tiehammer nodded: "Well, I know." I want Lin Han and them to pay attention, carefully check the condition of these ships, and don't let the Gallic chickens take us seriously.

Immediately, he frowned again and asked, "What about the two Italian Garibaldi?

"According to our representatives, the Italians are extremely inefficient and will not be able to complete the formalities until about next week. The secretary replied.

"Hey, Mr. Wen is so right, what a bunch of fools" Wang Tiehammer sighed with his forehead, he couldn't help it.

"Forget it, let's not talk about the stupidity, how is the renovation work in the United States?"

The secretary flipped through the records and replied: "As far as our field representatives know, the ship-by-ship will be completed by the end of next month, and the battleship will be completed by the end of June. ”

At this time, the phone in front of Wang Tiehammer rang.

"Hey, yes, I'm Wang Hammer. Oh, it's the Secretariat of the Central Committee, Comrade Gu Xiaoyuan, what's the matter?...... Oh, really? It's so good, thank you so much Minister Ka is really a diplomatic genius Comrade Gu Xiaoyuan, and the best news I heard today hahaha......"

After putting down the phone, Wang Tiehammer was already smiling, and he said happily: "Great, the work on the Chilean side has finally been completed, and they agreed to be a middleman and help us buy a few second-hand battleships." Hmph, those John Cows are really troublesome, we have to go around in circles to sell them, it's really unreasonable."

"Commander, are the British willing to sell warships?" Hearing the news, the secretary also became happy.

Wang Tiehammer said angrily: "Yes, these tsundere cows are and set up archways, and they refuse to sell us directly, so they have to turn their hands and appear to be neutral." it."

Niu Niu was very arrogant, they were originally unwilling to sell the warship, but the price offered by Wen Desi was not low, Niu Niu did not want to give up this business, coupled with the activities of the London branch, Niu Niu finally relented, and they hinted that the southwest government would find an intermediary and turn around.

"So, Commander, what are we going to buy?"

Wang Tiezhu touched his chin and said: "They will definitely not sell if they are too new, and we can't look down on those who are too old." Although the second-hand ships currently sold are mainly for training, they can't be too broken...... Well, we still have to find out about the specifics, okay, let the relevant departments come over for a meeting in the afternoon and discuss it. ”
