Chapter 164 Start to prepare for battle

After Su Yi arrived in Huifeng City, he did not rest in Huifeng City, and soon came to the blocked Huifeng Port, and put the 36 large armored cruisers, four former dreadnought battleships, eight Three dreadnought battleships, sixteen battlecruisers and sixteen super dreadnought battleships all materialized into reality.

As for the naval officers and soldiers needed to ration these new warships, they will come from the four marine brigades that blockaded Huifeng Port. Currently, the marine brigades of the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire are all composed of naval biochemical humans. , It is to facilitate the naval officers and soldiers of the marine brigade, who can be transformed into naval officers and soldiers on the warship at any time.

Afterwards, Su Yi discussed with Wang Chengliang, the commander-in-chief of the Royal Navy of the Datang Empire, and decided to assign the four Connecticut-class pre-dreadnought battleships to the Fifth Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Datang Empire. Dreadnought battleships, the number will increase to twelve.

Two Giant-class dreadnought battleships, two King-class dreadnought battleships, and four Florida-class dreadnought battleships will belong to the Fourth Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Datang Empire, increasing the number of Giant-class and King-class battleships to ten, and the number of Florida-class ships. increased to eleven.

Four Vengeance-class super dreadnoughts with 381mm main guns, four Colorado-class super dreadnoughts and four Nelson-class super dreadnoughts with 406mm main guns, four Kongo-class battlecruisers, four prestige Class battlecruisers will all belong to the First Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Datang Empire.

The First Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire will also have twelve Queen Elizabeth-class ships, ten Bavarian-class ships, four Vengeance-class ships, four Colorado-class ships, four Nelson-class ships, a total of 34 super dreadnought battleships, and eight King Kong ships The eight prestige-class battlecruisers and the eight prestige-class battlecruisers are well-deserved to become the main force of the main fleet.

Another four Tennessee-class super dreadnought battleships and four Tiger-class battlecruisers will be dispatched to the First Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire, and four battlecruisers of the Lion-class will be dispatched to the Second Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Purple Moon Empire.

The twelve Minotaur-class armored cruisers, twelve Scharnhorst-class armored cruisers, and twelve Blücher-class armored cruisers that have just been manifested will form nine new armored cruiser formations. Each cruiser formation will have four large armored cruisers.

These nine armored cruiser formations will be allocated to the five main fleets of the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire and the four main fleets of the Royal Navy of the Ziyue Empire, and it happens that one of the main fleets will be allocated to a new armored cruiser formation.

After adding a batch of new warships to the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire and the Royal Navy of the Ziyue Empire, Su Yi asked the navies of the two countries to keep the newly added warships as secret as possible, so as not to let the outside world know. The US Navy keeps some hole cards to deal with a possible war.

Su Yi did not stay longer than Huifeng City and Huifeng Port. On the night of July 25th, Su Yi left Huifeng City's railway station on an armored train, ready to rush back to Chang'an City.

When Su Yi left Huifeng City, Liu Muqing, who looked depressed, took photographer Wu Xuedong, assistant Zhang Ying, and two bodyguards, and boarded a train that was about to leave Chang'an City.

After Su Yi's enthronement ceremony was over, Liu Muqing thought of many ways to try to see Su Yi, but Su Yi is no different than before, and Liu Muqing, a reporter from a foreign country, can't easily see him at all.

On the afternoon of July 25th, Liu Muqing received a telegram from her father. Her mother suddenly fell ill and asked Liu Muqing to return to Liuyun City quickly. Liu Muqing had no choice but to leave Chang'an City in a hurry, and first took the train to the Datang Empire. A border city in the east, and then take a car back to the territory of the Floating Cloud Empire, and change to a train to return to Floating Cloud City.

When the train was about to leave, Liu Muqing looked in the direction of the Chang'an City Palace through the window, and sighed unwillingly. What Liu Muqing didn't know was that the Su Yi she wanted to see was not in the palace right now. middle.

Su Yi was sitting in a luxury compartment of the armored train, and suddenly sneezed. At this time, Du Zhongtie, the captain of the Royal Guard who was following Su Yi, hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, do you need a thicker one for you?" blanket?"

Su Yi waved his hand and said: "No need, maybe the Queen and the others are talking about me! By the way, the intelligence agencies of the two countries, as well as the military intelligence bureaus of the two militaries, are there any of them? New news about the seven countries of Mi, Monia, Jisk, Rielland, and Orenza?"

Du Zhongtie shook his head and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the intelligence departments and military intelligence bureaus of the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire have not discovered any major actions by the seven countries including Yingluoba and Sharad."

Su Yi sighed suddenly and said: "I have a premonition that our Great Tang Empire and Ziyue Empire's withdrawal from the negotiations that limit the size of the navy and army of various countries will never end like this, maybe a larger-scale war , will fall on the heads of our Tang Empire and Ziyue Empire, it seems that not only the navy must be prepared, but the army must also be prepared."

After Su Yi returned to Chang'an City, he immediately summoned He Yunfei, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Army of the Great Tang Empire, into the palace. expansion, but Su Yi ordered to improve the reserve system as soon as possible in the entire Datang Empire and Ziyue Empire.

Try to establish a total of 64 reserve infantry divisions in the 33 provinces of the Tang Empire and [-] provinces of the Ziyue Empire within half a year, including [-] reserve infantry divisions of the Royal Army of the Tang Empire , and two hundred reserve infantry divisions of the Ziyue Imperial Army.

The soldiers of these 8 reserve infantry divisions will be mainly farmers, workers and craftsmen. These soldiers only need to spend a few days each month for training. Each reserve infantry division will have nearly [-] active officers as The backbone, once needed, each reserve infantry division can become a full-staffed infantry division with [-] people in a short period of time.

如今利用苏毅从系统商城所购买的机械设备，大唐帝国和紫月帝国已经建起了好几家特大型的兵工厂，现在这些兵工厂已经可以仿制陆军所使用的毛瑟98k步枪、MP34冲锋枪、瓦尔特P38手枪、毛瑟98K狙击步枪、MG-42通用机枪、M-2式迫击炮、M1897式野炮、M2式105毫米榴弹炮和M1式155毫米榴弹炮，并且产量都不低。

Coupled with the army weapons that Su Yi can purchase from the system mall every month, as well as the army weapons stored in the system item warehouse, it only takes about a year, and Su Yi can supply the [-] reserve infantry divisions. The weapons are fully equipped.

In addition, Su Yi also asked several large arsenals to imitate two fighter jets and a bomber equipped by the Royal Air Force of the Tang Empire, as well as light tanks, heavy tanks and armored vehicles equipped by the First Armored Division of the Imperial Army of the Tang Dynasty. , and Su Yi also invested a lot of money, asking these arsenals to develop fighter jets, bombers, armored vehicles and tanks with better performance.

The eight large shipyards of the Datang Empire, also under Su Yi's urging, began to build twenty super dreadnought battleships with five double-mounted 42-caliber 381mm main guns and twenty super-dreadnought battleships with four double-mounted 42mm guns. A battlecruiser with a double-caliber 381mm main gun.

With the support of Su Yi's sufficient funds, the eight large shipyards of the Datang Empire started construction of a large number of large armored cruisers, light cruisers, and destroyers in one go, and one of the large shipyards secretly began to imitate Datang A Type VIIC submarine of the Imperial Royal Navy Submarine Force.

The original shipbuilding industry of the Ziyue Empire had a good foundation. With the support of Su Yi's large amount of funds and mechanical equipment, the shipbuilding industry of the Ziyue Empire was finally integrated into six large shipyards. When the dreadnought battleship and twenty battlecruisers started construction, sixteen super dreadnought battleships of the same type and sixteen battlecruisers of the same type also began laying the keels in six large shipyards of the Purple Moon Empire.

The six large shipyards of the Purple Moon Empire have also newly started construction of a large number of large armored cruisers, light cruisers and destroyers.

When Su Yi invested in the military industry on a large scale, his investment in the people's livelihood of the Datang Empire and the Ziyue Empire did not decrease. Thanks to the rice, flour, canned meat, and penicillin sold in the system mall, Su Yi can change A large amount of funds, especially the 160 million units of penicillin, which is more expensive than gold, are exported to all over the world, and a large amount of funds have been exchanged for Su Yi. Financially bankrupt.

Su Yi can buy one billion sticks of 160 million units of penicillin from the system mall every month, and the penicillin in this world is generally only 1 units, and the price is expensive. The market price of each penicillin of 1 units is two pounds. around yuan.

You must know that 160 million units of penicillin is much better than 1 units of penicillin, so Su Yi set the export price of each 160 million units of penicillin at three pounds.

The selling price in the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire is only set at ten silver dollars each, and poor families can apply to the military hospital for free penicillin injection treatment.

And just as the Tang Empire and the Ziyue Empire were preparing for battle in an orderly manner, the seven first-class powers, Yingluoba, Sharad, Noomi, Monia, Jisk, Rielan, and Orenza, also began to fight against each other. a series of actions.
