I built an armada.

Chapter 340: The promotional video reveals secrets, and everyone is shocked
Everyone opened their eyes wide and rubbed their hands, wanting to get the relevant video content as soon as possible.

After anxious waiting, it’s 7 o’clock, prime time.

After the classic CCTV news clip, the beautiful host said, "Good evening, viewers. Now let's temporarily insert a video about the Navy recruitment."

As soon as the words came out, the TV screen switched immediately.

A video that had been prepared long ago was played on the big screen.

In the picture, Zhang Zhaoxin explained something to the camera and then his body moved out of the camera.

He introduced them as he walked.

"The Navy has announced many active ships. Please see these are the 053H3 frigates, the 051B guided missile destroyers, the 052C..."

As they were introduced one by one, all the warships were captured in the camera.

In addition to missile destroyers, there are also missile frigates, missile boats, comprehensive supply ships, etc., all of which quickly flashed across the screen until the appearance of 052C.

Zhang Zhaoxin's introduction was very fast. With a wave of his hand, the picture disappeared immediately and a picture praising the new product appeared.

"The warships you saw just now have basically entered the stage of retirement and elimination, because our navy already has warships with more advanced performance."

"The Navy no longer needs them to perform their duties of defending the homeland. They have already achieved success. Old soldiers never die, they just keep dying."

Having said this, Zhang Zhaoxin paused slightly.

At this moment, the audience in front of the TV were very excited.

"Wow, how come ships like this are retired? They still look new."

"It seems that our navy has really become stronger. The warships that have been maintained so well have entered the retirement period. Are they going to be sent to the museum?"

"These ships have obviously been modernized and equipped with missiles. It seems a pity to retire them now. Isn't it a bit of a waste?"

"If they are not retired, where will our navy's more advanced warships find space to berth?"

"It feels like our navy has grown stronger without us noticing. I feel so safe."

Not only the audience in front of the TV were excited, but also the many military fans gathered in the Tiexue Forum. Since the gradual rise of the navy, they have made up their minds about the navy's equipment and now basically know them like the back of their hands.

Whenever a warship appears, they can clearly know the specific model of the ship and its past experience as long as they take a look.

"The last one that appeared must be the Type 051C. I saw it at the last naval review in Shanghai. I never expected that it had reached the stage of retirement. I remember it was still new and powerful last time."

"It's not just the 051C. Many of the ships that appeared in the previous fleet review have now entered the retirement stage. My god, has the navy become so generous all of a sudden? Retiring so many ships at once, does it mean that new warships have been added?"

"Isn't that nonsense? Didn't you see that even the 051C has entered the phase of elimination? I remember that this ship was commissioned only a year ago. I was wondering why it was exported in large quantities abroad before. Now I know the reason."

"You still remember the warship that appeared at the surrender ceremony, right? It was really powerful. Could it have been deployed on a large scale? Just by looking at its appearance, you can tell it must be very powerful."

"Isn't that nonsense? Vertical launch, four-sided shield, and anti-stealth radar installed. This is the love ship of our dreams."

Many military fans were discussing this enthusiastically, and their hearts were filled with pride for the Navy's heroism this time.

Not only did they not feel it was a waste, but they also thought that they should all be retired immediately and replaced with advanced warships like the 052C.

At the surrender ceremony, only a partial clip of the 052C was shown. Since no relevant information was released to the public, military fans still do not know the specific situation.

Naturally, they are not aware that the navy has already begun to deploy 052D on a large scale. This is the future of the navy.

In the video, the scene has shifted to another stage.

"The prototype of this 051C is the 051. Our navy has not had any new ships commissioned in recent years, so we just modified it and used it as is."

"I believe many people think it is outdated and not a modern warship, but after the upgrade, its combat capability has refreshed everyone's cognition. It has achieved very good results in all previous maritime military operations."

"It sank the Murasame and overturned the Harusame. These are the most advanced second-generation and a half missile destroyers in the hands of the Eastern Maritime Self-Defense Force."

Zhang Zhaoxin explained in great detail, "The next ship is our current main combat equipment 052C."

"Yes, it is the missile destroyer that appeared at the surrender ceremony. It is also affectionately called the Longxia Aegis by military fans."

"It is our main battleship and the fist of the navy. Its appearance has enabled our navy to develop from point air defense to regional air defense."

"It is equipped with an active phased array radar, which has very strong search and combat capabilities..."

With the appearance of this warship, military fans on the Tiexue Forum were excited.

"Fuck, it turns out it's called 052C, so cool!"

"I was right. This is our main battleship. This makes sense. Why those warships were eliminated? This is the ideal warship."

"Such warships are truly modern warships. We hope to build them in large quantities so that our navy will no longer have to fight the enemy with flesh and blood."

Many military fans were even so excited that they burst into tears. They knew very well what the navy’s previous situation was like, but now they have finally upgraded their muskets to cannons and no longer have to fight against giants with their weak bodies.

Naval wars will never be one-sided again, and the Longxia Navy will no longer have to worry about being bullied!

"After saying so much, you must want to see how powerful our 052C is."

"Then please continue reading."

Then the screen switched to a video recording of a real naval battle.

In the picture, anti-aircraft missiles were fired one after another. The scene was very spectacular. The incoming anti-ship missiles on the sea were blown up one after another.

Military fans and spectators all opened their eyes wide with anticipation. They stared at the screen closely, not knowing who the 052C was fighting against.

In fact, this is part of the footage of the battle with the Maritime Self-Defense Force fleet of the East Wilderness Tribe. It was originally a confidential video, but now it has been made public.

"Hey, this is a real naval battle scene, or an animated CG. It looks so realistic."

"Based on my years of experience, this must be a real naval battle. But who are they fighting against? The East Desert Sea? Or a nearby tribe?"

"Looking at the scale, with missiles flying all over the sky, it must not be a small country nearby. I guess it's either the East Desert Sea Self-Defense Force or the Eagle Tribe. Only these two tribes have such strength."

"Our 052C is really powerful. It really opened my eyes. This is the weapon that can protect our country!"

Amid the heated discussions among military fans and audiences, the picture was still changing, but the camera was quickly zooming in, and soon the enemy warships appeared in the picture.

More than a dozen enemy ships were lying across the vast ocean, each one looking ferocious. Missiles were constantly fired from the ships, aiming at the Longxia Navy, while the 052C and its brother ships were engaged in a defensive counterattack.

Although it was not clear, and it was hard to tell what type of ship it was, as the camera zoomed in, the rising sun flag of the Eastern Desert Maritime Self-Defense Force fluttering in the wind soon appeared on the screen. The blood-red rising sun pattern that looked like a plaster was so recognizable. It was so eye-catching, and it was also so hateful.

Almost any well-educated person in Longxia can recognize it at a glance.

The mystery was solved, the Navy did not hide it.

What a confident display! It instantly made the whole nation excited.

"Fuck, this is too exciting. This is actually a scene of a battle with the East Desert Sea. It must be a real naval battle scene. I can guarantee it with my life."

"Awesome Plas, our navy is equipped with the 052C, which is so powerful. Did you see that? It intercepted almost all the anti-ship missiles launched by the East Desert Sea. It is indeed the performance of my dream ship."

"At this moment, I fell deeply in love with the Navy. The Navy is mighty!"

"I have to say that our navy is really strong. I just saw a picture of a battleship of the Eastern Desert Maritime Self-Defense Force being blown up. Did you see that? It was so cool and so exciting. This is a modern naval battle."

"Our navy has really risen. It has brought us a full sense of security. With such naval battles, it is no wonder that those old ships have to be eliminated."

At this moment, both the audience in front of the TV and the military fans gathered on the Tiexue Forum were all excited.

Such exciting naval battle scenes can be broadcast. The navy is not hiding anything at all. It directly reveals its cards to the world and announces that we are the strongest navy in the Dongzhou waters.

Everyone was dumbfounded, but their hearts were boiling with blood and their backs were tingling.

It is obvious that they are no longer willing to be the small guy and want to announce to the world that the Longxia Navy has arrived, with an overbearing attitude as if no one else can do it but them.

When has such a hot scene been made public before?
No.

Not once.

There has never been any external publicity, and the general public feels that the navy has too little presence and is completely transparent.

Occasionally, I learn about the navy's dynamics from foreign news or by seeing images of the Longxia Navy dispatching warships on the website.

Of course, there is also the spectacular scene of thousands of ships launching at the same time during military exercises.

But what kind of ships are those?

They are just small boats of a few hundred or a thousand tons, and the rockets launched are just to show the navy's fighting determination. As for the thick and slow missiles, they only appear in major exercises.

Even so, it is rare to see it once a year or even several years.

In this naval battle, missiles were used almost without restriction. This is a true manifestation of progress of the times. The navy is also becoming more powerful. In order to safeguard maritime rights and interests, there is no need to fight with flesh and blood anymore.

This time the scene quickly ended with several ships from the East Desert Sea being destroyed.

After watching the video, people realized that after such a fierce naval battle, the Navy's 052C was completely unscathed. This was simply amazing.

As soon as the scene ended, Zhang Zhaoxin's voice sounded again.

"You are not mistaken. This is a real naval battle scene. In the end, we won."

"That's right. The enemy is still very powerful. They attacked us first, but we have a powerful warship like the 052C, so we fought a very beautiful defensive counterattack."

"This is the main battleship currently in service in our navy, and it is the result of our years of hard work."

"Among the navy's warships, it's very strong, right?"

"But what I want to say is that the 052C is not strong enough for the current navy."

The vast majority of military fans and audience friends were stunned once again, and each of them found it a little unbelievable.

Isn’t this the strongest?

The combat power of 052C is already explosive enough, okay?

"Shit, I definitely didn't hear it wrongly. I have very good hearing. If the 052C isn't the strongest, then what kind of warship does our navy want?"

"Versailles, this is definitely Versailles. The Navy has now learned this trick. Do we really have a stronger warship than the 052C, 053, or 056?"

"Oh my god, the 052C isn't strong enough. Isn't the navy's progress too terrifying? Why do I feel like I'm out of date all of a sudden?"

"I always thought I could track the most advanced warships in the navy, but I didn't expect that I was the clown."

"How powerful will the Navy's next generation of warships be? I feel like my imagination is barren and I can't imagine it at all."

The vast number of military fans and the audience in front of the TV all gathered together and discussed the matter excitedly. For a moment, they felt that they had been left behind by the navy.

When everyone could not reach a conclusion, Zhang Zhaoxin's voice sounded again.

"Next, please continue watching the video."

After he finished speaking, almost everyone's eyes were once again focused on the new naval recruitment screen.

The new naval battle scene was immediately presented.

Of course, this video is shorter, just a few seconds long, like an Easter egg, but no one doubts that its value is so high that it is shocking.

A carrier-based aircraft on the Haruna-class light aircraft carrier had just finished its taxiing and was taking off, but at this moment a missile suddenly hit it and the fighter plane exploded instantly.

This is clearly a classic plot that only appears in movies, but it actually happened in real life.

Then a scene flashed of a Kongo-class guided missile destroyer being hit by an anti-ship missile. The missile suddenly made a snake-like maneuver at the end, and the close defense system on the warship was instantly blinded, making all interception ineffective.

One after another, the reconnaissance planes, armed helicopters, and carrier-based fighter jets that took off were blown up in mid-air.

This is exactly the power demonstrated by the 052D, which can ambush behind enemy lines.

The 052D only has a bow picture, which is exactly the same as the 052C, so naturally not much information is revealed.

But it brought so-called shock to the audience and military fans.

Their eyes all widened.

"What the hell, what is this new battleship of ours? It's so powerful that it can actually fight against an aircraft carrier fleet. Oh my God, it's too powerful."

"My mom just asked me why I knelt down to watch it. It was because this ship made my knees weak. I knelt down right away. It's so strong!"

"The anti-ship missile launched actually performed a serpentine maneuver at the end. I'm sure the enemy must have been killed while confused. They didn't expect our warships to be so powerful."
