"If the whole country follows your lead, maybe in less than ten years, China will be able to transcend the ages and enter the camp of great powers after Britain and the United States! But it is a pity that there is only one Zhu Hanchen! And you are not what you are today.

The head of China.”

Walking on the noisy mountainside avenue, overlooking the ship masts and chimneys in the wide harbor below, and listening to the loud chants of the recruits running past every half minute, he is known as the number one in contemporary China.

Mr. Jiang Baili, a military strategist, and Chen Shaokuan, Minister of Navy, strolled slowly with Zhu Bin.

Mr. Jiang looked at the majestic layout of the ultra-modern city in the distance that had been basically completed, and felt sincerely.

This is my second official visit to the Guzhenkou Military Base. Apart from the last time I accompanied Sekter for a physical examination, Chapter 353

In addition to recuperating his body, Taishan-class battleship (1) came here as a special representative and military observer of the national government. However, he did not follow Chairman Chiang's requirements and hints very conscientiously.

Instead, he stayed for more than two months and openly opened his own course at the National University of Defense Technology, and became Zhu Bin's assistant as a senior advisor to the task force.

In his spare time, his favorite thing is to take a walk on the mountainside road above the military port that is more than 100 meters high. While blowing the slightly cold spring breeze, he can enjoy watching the progress of this huge miracle that is rare in the world. Every time

, which made him unable to help but be filled with emotion.

Zhu Bin seized Shandong so neatly, not only without paying much sacrifice or price, but the smoothness and efficiency of the transition also surprised everyone who paid attention. All outside speculations came to nothing. Those who watched the excitement were even blinded.

Now, everyone has to correct their mentality and admit that Zhu Bin already has huge and uncontrollable power.

It was after witnessing the entire incident that Jiang Baili felt admired and surprised from the bottom of his heart. And Zhu Bin generously gave up the position of chairman of Shandong Province to Shen Honglie. He also spent tens of millions of funds to properly resettle the original 353rd unit of Han Fuju's army.

chapter

The Taishan-class battleship (1) is even more eye-catching. With such a bold mind, other heroes would never be able to be so open and generous.

Therefore, Jiang Baili simply stayed there peacefully, and wrote letters to the Chairman every once in a while, telling some stories in a nonchalant way, but did not make any military or political analysis or suggestions. Instead, he sent letters to Zhu Bin on his side.

At work, especially in strategic planning, I provide more help.

Zhu Bin naturally welcomed this very much. He couldn't ask for more than to be able to recruit the most talented people from all over the world to help him do things. Therefore, Jiang Baili praised him so much. He became rarely humble and said with a reserved smile: "Mr. Jiang, thank you very much. I actually did this because of it."

Taking great risks is suspected of overthrowing efforts and is a last resort in an emergency. If the whole country acted like this, I'm afraid everything would be in chaos."

Not only would there be chaos, but there would definitely be big problems. In order to ensure the stability of such a nationwide mobilization, he not only ordered tens of millions of tons of grain, meat and other living supplies from the United States, but also took the risk to vigorously promote improved varieties and

Mechanized farming. Very useful for this

He offended a group of landowners. If it weren't for his powerful military, and the benefits of high-yielding crops and downstream industries were too tempting, it would have been difficult to balance the huge gap. You know, his series of actions have touched upon traditional Chinese concepts.

The most troublesome place---land.

Such a promotion method is at the cost of mobilizing all the power and funds to squeeze out all the new markets and consumption capabilities in the country. Products produced by tens of millions of workers are produced by millions or tens of millions of migrant workers.

The infrastructure projects that have come out, forced allocation, rigid apportionment, and forced stimulation of industrial production are all very dangerous activities. Although compared with Americans who dig trenches in the east and fill in the west and fill in the south in order to solve the economic crisis,

The ridiculous practice of demolishing the north side of the building to increase the employment rate and stimulate the economy is almost useless, but it has actually lost its benefits and brought about huge changes. However, it must not be carried out comprehensively, otherwise there will be a large number of people in less than five years.

No one uses electricity, a large amount of cement, steel, and construction machinery are idle, a large number of industrial products are squeezed out and cannot be sold, and there are severe consequences such as rapid inflation. That is a big and fatal trouble!

That is to say, Zhu Bin has the support of undersea gold mines, the foreign export earnings to issue currency as the basic fund, and he has a strong foundation and a small business, so he can do this. It is impossible for the whole country.

Jiang Baili's view of the overall situation is unparalleled, and he admires him for being so clear-headed and self-aware. With just a few questions, he stopped dwelling on it, and turned to Chen Shaokuan and said, "Minister Chen should be quite satisfied now, right? 2

The ten-year dream has now come true, and the day when China’s powerful navy can defend its maritime borders is not far away.”

Chen Shaokuan clasped his hands behind his back and looked at the four large ships that had been launched and were being installed in the bay opposite. He couldn't restrain the joy on his face and nodded: "Thanks to Han Chen, I can achieve my lifelong goal in my lifetime.

"

In the past six months, he has spent more time in Guzhenkou than in Nanjing and Shanghai. There are no other reasons. Firstly, he is unwilling to see the ugly faces of the politicians in the national government and is too lazy to bother with them; secondly, he is here.

The thing that is tied to a lifelong dream is here. Just like now, the four large ships that started construction the year before last year will be officially commissioned in a few months. Together with the two warships of the same class in Jiangnan Shipyard, six more ships were added at once.

Capital ship!

The most gratifying thing is that among these six battleships, four are heavy cruisers and two are light aircraft carriers. In this way, the Chinese fleet he planned can be completely completed, and the power to protect the maritime borders has begun to take shape!

The four heavy cruisers are quite different from most similar ships in the world today. In terms of tonnage, because they are not countries of the Washington Naval Treaty, they are not restricted by it. The standard displacement is directly 14,000 tons, 210 meters long and 22.4 meters wide.

Compared with the treaty ships of the United States, Japan and the United Kingdom, they are larger, and more similar to the "Admiral Hipper-class heavy cruiser" that Germany started construction last year, with similar sizes.

However, in terms of armament, the main gun adopts an American triple-mounted turret with two in the front and one in the back. It uses a 203mm main gun with a caliber of 60 times. It adopts a self-developed bore structure and propellant, which can achieve an anti-aircraft fire rate of 6-8 rounds per minute per gun.

The secondary gun adopts 6 German-made twin 105mm guns.

65-caliber C33 high-level dual-purpose gun, 8 twin-mounted 76.2mm anti-aircraft guns, and 4 30mm 6-tube close-in defense guns.

In addition, two 3-piece 533mm torpedo launch tubes, two anti-submarine hedgehog guns at the front and rear, and three seaplanes and catapults are also installed.

What's even more different is that this battleship has a secret intelligent processing unit and radar system instead of a complex and bloated shooting command and sighting system. Therefore, it adopts a smaller single bridge, integrated single chimney and single mainmast structure.

This greatly reduces the weight of the overall deck superstructure.

The extra tonnage has been added to the hull armor. It mainly uses self-smelted 550MPa high-yield alloy steel plates, and the waterline armor uses high-strength lightweight alloys picked out from space junk. It is comprehensive and comprehensive that the Germans like.

The armor structure forms a closed armor box. The thickest part is 203mm. The rest of the armor is

The armor belt is also...thick. The upper deck is made of 50mm basalt fiber board plus 30mm alloy armor plate. The turret, command tower, ammunition depot and other places use basalt fiber and titanium alloy composite armor. The total thickness is above 254mm. It can be said that except for encounters

Battleships will be difficult to sink by battleship guns of the same tonnage.

In terms of power, eight self-developed supercharged boilers and four high-temperature steam turbines are used. In addition, four diesel engines using Tesla turbochargers provide a total of...horsepower of strong power to ensure that the warship can start quickly and

It can reach a maximum speed of 36 knots and a range of up to 12,000 nautical miles.

Such a powerful indicator is enough to make this kind of heavy cruiser proud of its peers around the world. With these four ships as companions, it can dare to fight head-on with the Japanese fleet even without battleships.

What's more. In addition, there are two aircraft carriers with a standard displacement of 20,000 tons. The hulls are also made of high-yield alloy steel plates and are more stable. While ensuring a high speed of 33 knots, they can carry 50 of the latest high-speed aircraft.

Fighters participated in the escort. The new fleet thus formed was more powerful than Chen Shaokuan himself imagined!

In a few months, this fleet will be formally established. At that time, the opportunity for the Chinese Navy to be proud will come!

That's not all. What really makes him more excited and the main reason for traveling together today is to realize the ultimate goal of a powerful fleet in his mind - a large battleship! Today, it was Zhu Bin who invited him and Jiang Baili to go there in person.

The steel plant witnessed the unfurling and cutting of the first steel plate smelted for the large battleship that the Navy is about to start building!

Large battleships represent the comprehensive level of a country's military and industrial strength and are the dividing line between strong and weak countries. Until now, they are an important indicator recognized by the world.

As for China, since its defeat at the hands of Japan in the Sino-Japanese War in 1894, its navy has been in decline and has slumped to the point where it has completely lost its integrity and dignity. It is simply deplorable. What Chen Shaokuan has been planning day and night for the past twenty years is to make the navy rise again, and he built

His own large battleship is an important milestone!

He mentioned to Zhu Bin with emotion: "I still remember four years ago, you wanted me to boast that Haikou would give China the ability to build a 30,000-ton large battleship on its own within five years, and even provided a model. At that time,

I didn’t really believe it in my heart, but I never imagined that this day would arrive just four years later. It’s like a dream!”

Zhu Bin said quite proudly: "I don't dare to go to Liangshan without three points. If I don't have any confidence, how can I dare to guarantee it with you? Today, I invite you and Mr. Jiang to witness this moment in person! Our Chinese Navy must have

The largest and most advanced battleship in the world!"

Jiang Baili didn't know that there was such a past event. Hearing this, his interest increased greatly and he happily said: "This can be regarded as a good story in the history of the Chinese Navy. Come on, let's go and take a look." He seemed to be even more anxious than Chen Shaokuan.

.

Quickly arrived at the entrance of the military base, took a special car and drove along the mountain road into the Gulf Channel. After running for ten kilometers, we passed through the towering giant wall. After walking another six or seven kilometers, we arrived at the "Guangming Steel" which had just been officially put into operation.

factory".

After more than three years of construction, China's largest steel plant has become the world's most advanced metallurgical industry, equipped with several converters such as oxygen bottom blowing, natural gas mixed top blowing, and high-temperature plasma induction, as well as six large and small electric converters.

A slag remelting furnace, a 14,000-ton hydraulic press, and several die forging machines and hydraulic presses, Asia’s largest 35

00mm medium-thick plate steel rolling mill, large heat treatment furnace and other equipment, providing an annual production capacity of 1 million tons of steelmaking and 300,000 tons of steel rolling. After the second phase of the project is completed, the steelmaking capacity will reach 3 million tons, of which 100,000 tons

Ten thousand tons is steel for ships, and one million tons is steel for machinery and weapons and equipment. Basically no rough steel is produced for civilian use.

Today, witnessed by hundreds of professionals and important figures, this steel plant will create a new history.rq
