The weapon tycoon who traveled to Daqin

There is still a lot of room for improvement in torpedoes, which requires the accumulation of important experience in future actual combat. The navy needs a small boat carrying torpedoes that is fast and highly maneuverable.

Two types of boats were selected by the Navy Ministry during the bidding process. Both types use diesel engines and propellers for propulsion. The hull materials are very different. One is made entirely of steel, and the other is half wood and half steel clad with wood. That is to say, welding thick steel plates on wooden boats.

The size and load capacity of both boats exceed expectations. Both can carry a rotatable 3.5-inch direct-aiming gun and two of the latest air-cooled machine guns.

Taking into account the processing and transportation problems, if a large amount of steel is transported from the north for shipbuilding, the amount of steel will exceed the total amount of all previous transportation, and there will also be a large number of weapons. Therefore, the Navy decided to build two types of ships at the same time, but the quantity will be different. There is a big difference. The former type builds about thirty ships, while the latter type builds fifteen ships. They are mainly used for emergency operations.

In order to encourage civilians to participate in the war, the Navy Ministry of Qin issued a large number of armed merchant ship licenses. This kind of license was almost free, and it did not even charge cost and handling fees. It was a free gift.

As the domestic futures index continues to rise, especially the price of raw materials, it has caused great price pressure, which has also made many people see business opportunities. If the transportation of raw materials can be resumed at once, the profits will be huge. You must know that shipping The transportation volume was very large, and the country attached great importance to the Southern Railway. As a result, the shipyard received private shipbuilding orders from some investors, and the shipyard construction plan was accelerated again.

At this time, the naval aviation force, in addition to airships, had initially completed the transition mission. Next, they would launch an attack on the Chu navy, which was taking the initiative to attack.

"Can we win?" Xiang Yan shook his head and put down the newspaper of Qin in his hand. The newspaper of Qin criticized the navy for accelerating shipbuilding and investing a lot of material resources in naval construction, especially the completion of the railway, which would have a negative impact on Chu. A big threat, that railway will be the control of the south through Guanzhong by the Qin State, and it will also be an important lifeline for the south to connect with the north. With this railway, the Qin State can continuously transport steel, artillery, machine guns, and aircraft developed in the north. Going south, compared to the Chu State, although there are golden waterways for convenient transportation, the navy's equipment is very poor. Most of the soldiers in the army are equipped with cold weapons. The reason is that they cannot give up traditional water warfare and rely on gang tactics. , Another important factor is the number of artillery. The Chu State also imitated the Qin State's artillery. Especially after mastering the gunpowder technology, the demand for this kind of artillery expanded instantly. However, the development of Chu State's artillery technology was not very great. Qin State invented it before. The pressure method is used for pouring. That method can make the artillery more compact, but the Chu State does not have this technology. Their artillery has a large number of bubble holes. Moreover, the Qin State no longer needs to make such artillery. Such artillery is entering the country. The Qin State's history museum collections either flowed into Qi State, Chu State, and Wei State as surplus materials. As a result, the number of artillery among the six countries increased a lot compared with before, but the number was still small.

Xiang Yan knows better than anyone else that Qin's war potential can easily defeat Chu. From the newspapers, Qin has absolute confidence and ability to defeat Chu. If possible, it can well digest Chu's belt. coming influence.

The Qin army's quantity has been reduced, but its quality has been greatly improved. There are planes and airships in the sky, cannons and machine guns on the ground, and carriages, mechanical vehicles and trains for transportation. Such war potential cannot be beat by others.

Failure is only a matter of time.

Just as Xiang Yan was worried, Shang Wen was not worried about naval issues at all. On the contrary, he was very relaxed because a large number of investors had armed merchant ship licenses and invested in the shipbuilding industry. The number of people in the shipping industry began to increase, which was the potential strength of Qin. Signs of being excavated.

But Naofumi still has one important thing to do.

"Do you have time?" Naofumi asked during the break.

"What are you doing?" Ying Yu asked.

"Play, you will know when you come," Naofumi said directly.

"What's so fun? Haven't you been to all the surrounding areas?" Ying Yu said angrily. His originally planned travel plan was disrupted by his father.

"There is also a special place to play, look," Naofumi pointed to the house number of an open space in the new city.

"What, Disneyland," Ying Yu read as she looked at the door number.

"The name is really weird," Ying Yu said sarcastically.

"Hey, let's visit first, you will like it," Shang Wen said, pulling Ying Yu to the wooden chair aside.

Holding hands between lovers was nothing, but Yingyu's heart was beating non-stop. Shangwen felt that Disneyland should be removed and turned into an amusement park.

"Come on, put them on," Naofumi took out his roller skates.

"What," Ying Yu asked.

"It's a big place, hurry up with this," Shangwen said and showed how to put it on, but Yingyu didn't understand if it was something else. Anyway, it was Shangwen who helped her finish it.

"Stand up and try, you will lose your balance at first," Shang Wen carefully helped Ying Yu up.

"Ah," Ying Yu just stood up and suddenly sat down on the wooden chair.

"Let me just say, from the beginning..." Naofumi said.

"What is this thing?" Ying Yu was suddenly startled.

"Roller skates are just like skating in winter," Naofumi explained.

"Skating, yes, it's a bit like it. Let me give it a try," Ying Yu stood up carefully this time and tried to keep her balance.

Then she slowly moved her right leg, but she almost lost her balance again. Perhaps due to martial arts training, Ying Yu suddenly regained her balance.

"Hehe, it's not difficult at all," Ying Yu said.

"Come, hold my hand, slide slowly for a while, and then we will go visit," Shangwen stretched out his right hand. Yingyu glanced at Shangwen, smiled slightly and held Shangwen's hand.

"Yes, take your time," Shang Wen signaled. Ying Yu was very talented in playing with each other. After skating for a while, he was able to skate freely.

"Oh," Ying Yu felt very excited.

"It's so fun," Ying Yu shouted.

"How about we skate through the streets and alleys every day from now on," Ying Yu suggested.

"Okay," Naofumi accepted.

"Tell me what the big ship on the big shelf over there is for," Ying Yu asked.

Naofumi began his explanation, because some amusement facilities take time to build, and many things cannot be built in one time, but some things can be completed quickly.

There are too many merry-go-rounds, flying boats, and various water recreation facilities that have not yet been built. Although the Ferris wheel is not very big, there is one. After listening to Shang Wen's explanation, Ying Yu wanted to try it all, but unfortunately, construction has just started. There were not many days, but Ying Yu had great hope.
