The Red War God of Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 392 The Battle 1

In addition, in terms of weaponry and auxiliary facilities, Wu Aihua only configured according to the configuration standard of the Kitty Hawk when it was launched from the factory. If the configuration of the Kitty Hawk was followed by several overhauls, even if Wu Aihua was sold, he would not be able to pay for such a huge contribution. value.

This time, the reason why Wu Aihua is so "willing" is because he is upset that the United States will deter others at every turn. Now, let my super aircraft carrier go to the four oceans to show off, so that the great powers can also taste the taste of being deterred.

In addition, in the selection of medium-sized aircraft carriers, Wu Aihua chose the famous "Essex-class" aircraft carrier of the United States during World War II very pragmatically. The Americans built a total of 24 aircraft carriers of this level before and during World War II. The United States finally defeated Japan and made great achievements.

The Essex-class aircraft carrier has a standard displacement of 27200 tons and a full displacement of 34880 tons. The power is 15 shaft horsepower, and the maximum speed is 32.7 knots.

The Essex-class aircraft carrier just meets Wu Aihua's requirement of 3 to 5 tons, and because of its relatively low technology age, it only needs 10 points per ton, which makes Wu Aihua feel a little better, each ship is only 34.8 tons At that time, the Merit Points of the Martial Love Society had already reached 200 million points per month. Wouldn't it be possible to equip 5 or 6 Essex-class aircraft carriers in a month?

Isn't the United States known as the world's strongest industrial country?Wu Aihua remembers that in the US shipbuilding plan in 1942, the US only planned 10 Essex-class aircraft carriers, so let’s compare and see who has more aircraft carriers!

Of course, Wu Aihua is incomparable, at least not yet.Because China is very short of oil.When Wu Aihua exchanged these two aircraft carriers, he was already planning to develop oil fields in Shandong. Otherwise, after the real war broke out, Chinese tanks, aircraft, and warships might become fixed forts due to lack of oil.

The later Shengli Oilfield in Shandong has proven oil reserves of 145 billion tons and natural gas of 24738 billion cubic meters. It is one of the world's famous large oil fields.By 1978, the production of Shengli Oilfield reached 2000 million tons.

Wu Aihua’s plan was to carry out preliminary infrastructure construction in 1942, officially produce 1943 million tons of oil in 500, and reach 1944 million tons in 1000, plus the annual output of Yumen Oilfield of 60 tons. Hey, it’s still not enough.However, this number is not much different. The current domestic oil reserves can be used until the end of 1943. The difficulty lies in whether there is still oil available in the second half of 1943 and the first half of 1944.

Back to the question of the aircraft carrier.Heavy-duty aircraft carriers and medium-sized aircraft carriers cannot be produced at present and can only be exchanged from the system, but light aircraft carriers are fully capable of production. Therefore, Wu Aihua has not exchanged another 1939-ton aircraft carrier since the completion of the four offshore fleets at the end of 2. The following warships are all produced by major shipyards.

The 8 aircraft carriers required for the newly formed Pacific Fleet and Indian Ocean Fleet were born in the shipbuilding plan in 1940. Although only 8 of the 4 ships were completed when Wu Aihua issued an order to form the two fleets, but All ships can be delivered by April 1942.

On the naming of these aircraft carriers, Wu Aihua fully solicited the opinions of the Central Council, the Government Affairs Council, and political and military advisers. In the end, their suggestions were surprisingly unified. For the super aircraft carrier, they suggested naming it "Mingshan Class", the first ship It is suggested to be called "Taishan", and the second ship is suggested to be called "Huashan". In addition, Songshan, Hengshan, Hengshan, Huangshan, Lushan, Changbai, Wuyishan, Emeishan, etc. can be used to order; as for medium-sized aircraft carriers, they suggest The order is given in the name of the emperor, so it is called the "Emperor" class, so China has four aircraft carriers, "Yingzheng", "Liu Bang", "Liu Ying", and "Liu Heng".

As for the light aircraft carrier, the suggestion is more complicated. In the end, Wu Aihua adopted the "36 Tiangang Star" as the order, regardless of the class or not. Anyway, the aircraft carrier below 2 tons is called "Tiangang Class".

Incessantly, Wu Aihua overturned some of the original orders, and made all heavy cruisers into "provincial city level", all light cruisers into "city level", and all destroyers into "county level".As for submarines or other ships, they are compiled by number.The only 8 battleships are ordered by azimuth, namely the North, the Northeast, the East, the Southeast, the South, the Southwest, the West, and the Northwest.

This naming method is simple and clear. The only problem that may arise is that provincial cities, including the former ancient capital, may not be enough.However, Wu Aihua is not too worried. When there are 30 heavy cruisers, he will definitely think of a new way. Who stipulates that China will only have the current provinces?

Although the two fleets in the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean have been successfully formed, the ship configuration has not yet been completed. Not only are the two fleets short of 2 light aircraft carriers, but they are also short of 4 heavy cruisers.Originally, this kind of heavy cruiser could be exchanged from the system, but Wu Aihua still felt that it would be better to produce it in reality.If we want to become the world's industrial power, we must learn to build large ships and warships. In later generations, our freighters can easily build 10-ton cargo ships, but we have never dared to build aircraft carriers.

Some people say that China has long mastered the technology of manufacturing aircraft carriers, but China does not want to manufacture it for the time being.In fact, how do you understand this? If you want to talk about a certain aspect of aircraft carrier technology, China must have mastered a lot, but if you say that China has already had aircraft carrier manufacturing technology, it is self-deception. You have never built an aircraft carrier. , how can you say you have mastered that technique?Maybe you have mastered the general technology, but the performance of the built aircraft carrier is much lower than that of others, so what should you do if it is unusable?

And the two fleets also need training and running-in to finally form combat power, which also takes time.

……

On March 1942, 3, in the early spring of Jiangnan, the peach blossoms in the back garden of the Presidential Palace were in full bloom. President Wu Da was teasing his two-year-old and three-month-old son, Wenwen. Wu Aihua had no opinion on the name of his son He didn't listen, and named him Wu Wen directly. He hoped that his son would become a cultured person in the future, unlike his father, who only knew how to practice martial arts, but not literary.

"President, everyone is here." Just as Wu Aihua was teasing his son happily, Shen Ren came in and said.

"Okay, Wenwen, goodbye to Dad." Wu Aihua stood up.

"Father, goodbye." Wen Wen sat on the lawn, beckoned to Wu Aihua reluctantly, and then walked to a small peach tree as if discovering a new world, reaching out to pick off the peach blossoms.

"This guy wants ### peach blossom again. I really don't know who I learned from." Wu Aihua glanced at his son, murmured something in his heart, turned and left.

The conference room of the Presidential Palace has long been filled with dignitaries from all walks of life.

On the left hand side of the long strip conference room is a group of civil servants, headed by Speaker Jiang, under the Speaker Jiang, Vice President Li Zongren, and then Zhou Nl, Deputy Speaker Mao Zd, Feng Yuxiang, Supreme Supervisory Council, Supreme Court Yuan Minister Wu Jingxiong, Vice Premier Sun Ke, and Foreign Minister Gu Weijun have a total of 9 people.

On the right hand side of the long conference room is a group of military generals, headed by Deputy Commander-in-Chief Xia Zhongqing, followed by Deputy Commander-in-Chief He Yingqin, Chief of General Staff Jiang Baili, Deputy Chiefs of General Staff Bai Chongxi and Gu Zhutong, Director of the General Political Department Chen Cheng, Fu Lin, Director of the General Staff Department, Chen Shaokuan, Commander of the Navy, Sun Jianjun, Commander of the Air Force, and Zhong Shoufu, Minister of National Defense, have a total of 10 people.

Seeing the arrival of the President of Wuhan University, Deng Xixian, Secretary-General of the Presidential Palace, immediately said loudly: "Everyone, the meeting is now. The first item of the meeting, all stand up and sing the national anthem!"

As the music sounded, everyone sang together: "The Chinese majesty stands in the universe, the outline is eight long, the Huazhou has come from the top of Kunlun, the rivers and lakes are vast and the mountains are continuous, and the honor and glory make way for Yaotian, hundreds of millions of years."

The lyrics of this national anthem were actually changed by Yuan Shikai after he proclaimed himself emperor, but only one sentence was changed. The original text "the five clans of the Republic open Yaotian" was changed to "Xunhua bowed to Kaiyaotian".

At that time, after Wu Aihua entered the central government, the "ism song" created by the Kuomintang party was of course a serious matter. It was a party song, not a national anthem; besides, Wu Aihua had already convinced all political schools, so there was nothing to do in China If you really want to practice "ism", let's use "pragmatism" and "eclecticism". As long as it is useful to China, use it.

"For the second item of the meeting, I invite President Wu Aihua to speak." After everyone finished singing, Deng Xixian said loudly again.

"My colleagues, I think you all know the topic of today's meeting, and have read the intelligence about countries around the world in recent months. Moreover, from my private conversations with you, everyone agrees that the military Therefore, there is no need to discuss whether our country will participate in the war. Here, I will talk about my views on the world situation and my views on the world itself.”

"In Europe, Germany has demonstrated a strong combat power and occupied the entire Western, Central and Eastern European countries. Even if there are no occupied countries, they obey Germany's national policy. The division lost ground, but Soviet Russia was not easy to defeat; in addition, although the British failed in the battle at home, the British still retained about 60.00% of their national power. The British are recruiting troops in Canada and are preparing to counterattack Germany. , Now, the United States has joined the ranks of wars against Germany, Italy, and Japan. Under such circumstances, it will not be easy for the Germans to win a complete victory."

"Everyone has also realized that the world is currently in chaos, but it is too early to say who will win and who will lose, because there is a huge variable in this, and this variable is us China. If we join the German camp, The Soviet Union, the United States and the like are definitely not opponents. Comrades in the military may be more aware that our cutting-edge weapons cannot be confronted by the United States; if we join the United States, Britain, and Soviet Russia, then Germany, Japan and other countries are also not opponents. .”
