Yang Hao was shocked and pointed at the black muzzle in surprise and asked, "You... made the main gun so quickly? Why didn't I hear any movement!"

If you don’t see it with your own eyes, it is difficult for ordinary people to imagine how thick the medium caliber naval gun is. If you only count the inner diameter, you can refer to the soup bowl commonly used at home. But if you count the outer diameter, then a stronger comrade will just gesture to his waist.

This is the thinnest muzzle. When I saw the roots later, the strong man’s shoulders were basically not enough, and it was probably appropriate to put the bicycle on the Gulu.

Such a sturdy guy was pressing against the door, and the effect of blocking evil was absolutely first-class.

Fatty Liu rolled his eyes and said, "What are you thinking about? It will take at least three months to see the real complete turret! This is the appearance of a seamless steel pipe. If the warship is caused in the future, it is estimated that most of the time it will only be able to carry it out and sway."

His words were full of regrets. After all, a warship built completely according to the genuine standards could only use seamless steel pipes to support the facade all day long. It was so aggrieved.

Yang Hao was so angry that this guy was still unhappy? Did he know that a seamless steel pipe with this caliber cost more than 8,000 per ton! A gun barrel requires at least 30 tons to cause such an inner pipe and an outer sleeve, and the material cost is more than 250,000 yuan!

Three seats and nine gates, which is an investment of more than 2 million yuan. This is a real soft girl coins. It is enough to buy a second-hand sports car and go out to grab a little girl.

From this aspect, we can also see how expensive it is to build large warships.

Not to mention anything else, to make a 406mm battleship main gun, a gun barrel base material requires a full 100 tons of alloy steel! Even if you don’t use electric slag and remelting steel, use ordinary gun steel. It is forged and pressed by heavy hydraulic presses, and then a complete set of treatments with a giant boring machine, milling machine, drilling machine, plus a series of processes such as stress removal, hydraulic self-tightening, chromium plating in the inner chamber, etc. The cost is at least 2 million.

This is a pipe. There are nine warships, you still have to use them? The main gun tube can't be hit by 30 to 40 million.

Besides, if you don’t know if you don’t know, the ones with lower labels cost 15,000 yuan per ton! Some of them are more than 20,000 yuan per ton are not uncommon, and the key welding materials are all dedicated. After two calculations, the cost is over.

Just like this, he still feels unsatisfied? It turns out that he doesn't feel sorry for spending his own money.

Yang Hao was too lazy to talk nonsense to this pretentious bitch. He glared at the eyes and walked into the workshop to look inside, and found that the full-scale barrel was currently supported by a bracket. At the end, there was a turret about the same size as a room.

Only a part of the outer shell made of foam and wood wraps the lower half, and the upper layer is completely empty, exposing the entire set of high and low machines, direction machines, slings, anti-rear seat systems, upper and lower shelves, etc., and they are all the original form of newly assembled parts, exuding a cold metallic luster.

What attracted Yang Hao's attention was that this system clearly has an electric assist design, which shows that at least the operation is more convenient and quicker when used, and the number of personnel required is reduced.

The tall turret sat on a half-open gun mount. There is a door behind the base body that is three meters high, so you can see the structure of some of the bullet lifts that have been installed.

Fatty Liu gave a detailed explanation from the side. It showed that under the current design conditions, the shells lifted by the bullet lifter will be assisted by the loading until they are loaded into the barrel, and there is no need for manual effort. The only difference is that it cannot be fully automatic. The main reason is that the entire mechanical structure is much more complex and has a large weight. It is not possible to carry it on the hull with a standard 10,000 tons.

Of course, there is another reason: "You have to make everything automatic, and how disappointing those guys who come up and try to experience a classical navy! Since you want to let others play, you must sweat heavily and experience the fun of using it yourself. We can save money, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

Yang Hao understood clearly. This guy's style is like this. Although he seems to be big-handed, he is actually a good person to live a life.

However, he was quite satisfied with this. For the 19th century environment, semi-automatic ones were more reliable than fully manual ones, and took into account the overall quality of contemporary crew members. It also ensured that they could be given sufficient operational training, facilitated training of personnel, and was relatively simple to maintain.

Walking further into the workshop, you can see one-tenth of the model that is completing the last bit of assembly work.

According to computer-aided design, it is divided into dozens of hulls, welded with thin steel plates, and assembled and combined, which is actually a pure appearance. The only purpose is that it allows people to see the overall external structure of the warship with their own eyes.

As for the real ten-to-one slant, Yang Hao didn't have much to let them do it, so he directly determined the design plan and started construction.

Time is money and life! In the nineteenth century, the environment was getting more and more urgent. One day before the warship was completed, one day before the warship was built.

Even if the extremely complex hull construction is completed under the conditions of the 21st century, it is not easy to imagine if it is seven or eight months (the United States was 14 months in World War II). After installing weapons and equipment and then launching them for extra-equipment and trial sailing, it will take another three or five months. So, the twelve can get warships and let a group of newcomers go up for at least three months before they can tentatively enter the battle.

Fifteen to eighteen months is the ideal and fastest speed.

Just as he was watching, a representative of the factory stationed military came over and saw Yang Hao, he immediately smiled and shouted: "Yeah, isn't this Boss Yang? When will you get out of the workshop to inspect the work?"

This person came from the Navy and was very familiar with Uncle Tang in Africa, so he spoke very casually.

Yang Hao shook hands with him with a smile and joked: "Leader Zhang is really worthy of the high salary paid by your bureau! He squatted in the workshop so hard all day, smoky and fire-filled. Can he bear it?"

On the Internet, various jokes about military representatives have gone to the sea. It seems that the invention of every advanced weapon was successfully studied by their own hands. Without technical problems they cannot discover or solve. In the words of some military newspaper editors, they are the guarantee of success.

Private enterprises like Yang Hao's shipyard are also tinkering with big killers. Of course, they are the focus of their care. If someone from other state-owned or military-industrial units is sent, I guess Boss Yang doesn't have to do anything else. He can't finish talking to them all day long.

Fortunately, Mr. Chen has a lot of energy and can work with someone who is related to it. He does not ask for help, at least don’t get involved in it and drag it down.

Representative Zhang is only in his thirties, and he has a generous temperament. He hugged Yang Hao's shoulder and sighed, "Brother, how much you say this! Brother, I don't go to a big city with good treatment. It takes time and effort to go to your small place, and there is no fun at all. Is it easy for me? Besides, look at you, you can make these things, good guy, a 203mm naval cannon! I'm a little unattentional, do you know how much trouble you can cause?"

The bitterness on his face made people feel sour, but Yang Hao hummed, "Come on. In the end, this boat has to be attached to the navy? You don't have to spend a penny, but you get a heavy cruiser out of thin air, just go and have a secret fun. So many military experts from the factory are here to play? Are you still taking the opportunity to use your buddy's money to practice their hands?"

Representative Zhang laughed dryly and turned his eyes away: "That has nothing to do with me! Who made you make such a big noise? It alarmed the boss above?"

To be precise, the military has been involved in so many people, it was purely Yang Hao’s self-invested.

Since he held a press conference to build the so-called "Zhongshan Ship", he has been under the noses of some people, but he has not paid much attention yet.

But when he started to replenish the cruiser, the matter was completely different.

This warship will use a large amount of ship special steel. Whether the procurement of related welding equipment and materials can affect the increasingly rapid construction of warships at present must be clarified. Because Yang Haixin purchased a large amount through the intermediate agency of the "firewall"! The total amount of special steel exceeds 20,000 tons, which is not a small number.

What attracted more attention was that this warship would use two 453b steam turbines like No. 167, as well as four 454 boilers.

This host was improved based on the former Soviet TB-8, with a total power increased from 36,000 horsepower to 47,000 horsepower. With such a double-axle double-slapped, the heavy cruiser with a standard line of more than 10,000 tons can achieve a speed of more than 30 knots.

The problem is that you, a private player, spend so much money to build a heavy cruiser---Okay, by current standards, just a physical and combat power of 10,000 tons of large-scale destroyers...the threat to modern ships is not as good as a missile speedboat, but when it comes to guys who are the same as the important equipment currently in service, you have to carefully verify whether there are any other intentions.

The political appearance and composition of the Yang family do not need to be doubted. The three generations of people are clean and there are no suspicious overseas relations. Yang Haiwei is born in the navy and has no problem with his politically reliable character.

If you want to say that the purpose of building this warship is to be used as a film and television prop, no one will believe it. When you use props or even to develop tourism projects, learn from other cities, just use ordinary steel plates to make a look, and you can do it with tens of millions of dollars. But you are the one who can be involved in the battle as it is, what is your intention?

Without the relationship between Mr. Chen's line, Yang Hao would not have permission to spend no matter how much money he spent. But it would be easy to discuss if the fleet came forward to determine the jurisdiction and ownership of the use.

The person the Yang family could offend before was a local third-in-command, and it was not a big revenge for life and death. To go far, it was Yang Haixin's ex, but that family was also engaged in business. They couldn't do such a major military matter.

In addition, this is a big business involving more than one billion or more investments. Whether it is for sale of special steel, power systems, large motors, and related machine tools, they all stare at it. It doesn’t matter who has anything to do. This smash is a big deal, and cutting off people’s wealth is like killing parents.

If there is no matter of principle, it is not a big problem.

However, it is really unreasonable to let the Yang family make trouble. So after a series of investigations and evaluations, a large number of professionals of over 100 kinds entered the Langya Shipyard.

These people, almost all aspects of warship manufacturing, came to help in name only. In fact... Yang Hao could only watch whatever they did, and had to provide convenience.

For example, in other workshops, except for two electric slag furnaces, the people who work the handheld machine come from the forging and forming to boring and washing sections. This is clearly used by Yang Hao's equipment to train them in the technology of manufacturing large-caliber naval guns.

Nowadays, the maximum main gun on domestic warships is only 130mm, and the newly built destroyers are only 76,100 caliber, and the number is pitiful. Therefore, people who do this really don’t have much chance to get started.

Now, Yang Hao has a heavy cruiser, at least nine 203, nine reinforced hoops, and eight 127. Adding to the five cannons of the boat before, this number is as high as the shipbuilding volume for several years. Even if the process is not the same, the basic processing is still fine, right?

Besides, the installation and use of those two sets of hosts and boilers was because Yang Hao asked to introduce manufacturing technology, and the manufacturer was worried that he would buy the crazy Russian tb-8 or an outdated product in Europe and the United States, so he did not dare to speak out. However, manufacturing and installation work is a good opportunity for relevant units with only one aircraft carrier in repair.

In short, Yang Hao didn't spend much money, but he came uninvited a large group of professionals. I really don't know whether to be happy or depressed. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
