The Ares-class nuclear-powered cruiser has a displacement of up to 260 tons. The body of the warship is very long, more than 30 meters long, and the hull is very wide, nearly [-] meters long. This is much larger than the beast-class destroyer and the fairy-class destroyer.

The next thing that surprised the British was the hull equipment. Bertram ordered people to take out the pictures of the Beast-class destroyer and the Immortal-class air defense destroyer, and compared them with the Ares-class nuclear-powered cruiser. They were surprised to find that the Ares-class nuclear On the power cruiser, a lot of things are missing.

For example, anti-ship missiles. Since the stunning appearance of the Beast-class destroyer and the use of missiles to kill the British Far East Fleet, the world has been amazed by the Chinese missiles. They never knew what sank the powerful battleship until later. , Lin Yuan disclosed some information about the Beast-class destroyer, and the British knew about missiles.

The missiles of the Beast-class destroyer are arranged on both sides with quadruple missile launchers, but there are no such things on the Ares-class nuclear-powered cruiser.

Bertram frowned, and asked everyone: "Could it be that China's new large warships are not equipped with anti-ship missiles?"

Many of the people here are technical experts, they didn't speak, Bertram asked again, and then the expert said cautiously: "No, I don't think Chinese warships will give up anti-ship missiles. "

"Why don't they give up anti-ship missiles? They have an air force, and the strength of the air force is much stronger than anti-ship missiles."

The speaker was the chief technical expert at the Gibraltar base. He hesitated and said: "Although the air force is stronger than anti-ship missiles, after all, naval warships cannot enjoy the support of the air force all the time. If it is not equipped with anti-ship missiles, it means that there is no independent combat capability." ability."

Bertram nodded, "Then where did they put the anti-ship missiles?"

The chief technical advisor thought for a while, and pointed to a large blank platform at the bow of the ship, "This is the vertical missile launch system platform, with 128 missile launchers inside. I think anti-ship missiles should be inside."

Bertram wondered: "Judging from the hull layout of the Shenxian-class air defense destroyer, don't these vertical launch systems all launch air defense missiles?"

The chief technical advisor shook his head lightly, "Although the vertical launch system launches anti-aircraft missiles, it is not impossible to launch anti-ship missiles."

Bertram said "Okay", and the chief technical advisor continued: "Actually, I think the weirdest thing about this type of warship is that compared to the Immortal-class air defense destroyer, it basically cancels all the anti-aircraft artillery. We can see that there are a large number of anti-aircraft artillery on the Shenxian-class air defense destroyer, including 120 mm caliber anti-aircraft guns and 88 mm caliber anti-aircraft guns, forming an air defense network covering long-range, medium-range and short-range. Only the small close-in guns, the anti-aircraft guns, are gone."

Bertram laughed loudly, "That's right, I was also about to talk about this matter. I think this is an excellent opportunity. If we make use of it, we will definitely be able to annihilate this Chinese aircraft carrier battle group in one fell swoop."

Everyone's eyes lit up, and their hearts were full of excitement. Since the war with the Chinese, no one has ever been able to sink a Chinese warship. If we become No. 1 in this history, what an honor it would be !

Everyone asked: "How do we sink China's aircraft carrier battle group?"

Bertram spat out a word with confidence: "There is no defense against attack!"

Everyone was surprised, "What does it mean to have no defense against an attack? I have never heard of this word before."

Bertram smiled triumphantly: "Let me first talk about how Chinese warships defend against our attacks. If we send ten planes, they can send ten planes to intercept us, but if we send a hundred Aircraft, a thousand aircraft, far exceed the upper limit of the number of fighters they can intercept, can they stop it?"

Everyone still shook their heads, and Bertram could only explain again: "The core idea of ​​the unresisting attack I said is to dispatch a large number of weapons and equipment at the same time, including warships and planes, to attack Chinese warships together. With so many weapons attacking, it is impossible to defend against all attacks, so that our warships and aircraft may damage Chinese warships and eventually sink them."

Only then did everyone understand and nodded, but the chief technical advisor said, "General Bertram, your idea is very good, but I'm afraid it can only stay in theory. If you put it into practice, you will definitely encounter problems." to many problems.”

Bertram said with a smile: "Please tell me what problems you will encounter."

Without hesitation, the chief technical advisor said, "One of the most important issues to consider is that our aircraft must ensure that we are not detected at a long distance. If our aircraft is detected at a long distance, the Chinese aircraft can take off quickly. Attack us from a distance, and there is a good chance that we will all be shot down by Chinese planes before we even launch an attack."

Bertram said with a smile: "Mr. Consultant, you don't have to worry about this, I have already considered it, and I will use tactics to make up for the lack of technology."

Bertram suddenly looked serious when he said this, "Now I give an order!"

Upon hearing the "order", all the officers stood up, and many technical advisers also stood up. Bertlam said in a loud voice: "Now I order that all the aircraft in the hangar be transferred to Portugal tonight." Faro area, and there, waiting for my order, ready to strike against the Chinese Navy aircraft carrier battle group."

"Obey!" The officers agreed one after another, and then the meeting was dismissed to prepare, but the chief technical adviser felt uneasy. He was the last one to leave. Before leaving the conference room, he came to Bertram and pointed to the enlarged Looking at the photo of the Ares-class nuclear-powered cruiser, he said sadly: "General Bertram, I think you should think more about your plan. I suspect that there are some weapons and equipment on the Chinese warships that we don't know about."

"What weapons and equipment do we not know?" Bertram was a little impatient.

The chief technical advisor heard that Bertram's tone was wrong, so he didn't dare to say anything more, and hurriedly apologized with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just my random guess."

The chief technical advisor walked out as he said that. Before going out, he looked back at the middle and upper part of the bridge of the Chinese warship. It seemed a little too long there, and there should be some kind of weapon hidden in it...
