Naval Warfare for All: From Patrol Boats to Carrier Fleets

In this way, this battleship can only be sold to those indigenous forces, but Ye Bai is a little worried, after all, for those indigenous forces that occupy one island after another, such a wooden-hulled battleship that even Ye Bai does not look at can really make them interested and buy it?

Ye Bai didn’t know, but in the absence of other methods, this was already the only solution, as for whether those aboriginal forces bought it or not, they could only know after trying it.

With such a towing oil bottle, Ye Bai can not let the fleet continue to sail, in case of encounter with the pirate fleet, the Yuyuan is a live target, even if it is backward, it cannot be sunk by the pirate warship in vain, so the best way is to return, choose the island closest to the current position of the fleet, and sell the Yuyuan.

As soon as the idea was made, Ye Bai was ready to close the system panel and let Lütyans transfer part of the crew from the three battleships to take over the Yuyuan, it didn’t need much, as long as it could make this wood-hulled battleship move, anyway, he didn’t expect this old battleship to participate in the battle.

[Detecting that there is an old wooden unprotected warship under the player’s fleet, and the player has enough destroyer upgrade items in his hand, does the player choose to spend 30 “one five three” destroyer upgrade props and 2 million funds to upgrade the wooden unprotected warship? ] 】

【Yes/No】

Seeing the latest system prompt information, Ye Bai was stunned on the spot, what is the situation?

Could it be that he is really the child of luck in the world of great navigation?

Or is it the illegitimate child of the system?

Just now I was still disgusted that the Yuyuan had no use except for becoming a burden to the entire fleet, and now the system gave a perfect solution, no matter how much it cost to upgrade the Yuyuan.

There are 30 destroyer upgrade items, and up to 2 million funds, according to Ye Bai’s estimate, so far, apart from him, no player should be able to come up with so many resources.

Even those high-level players who can use the resources in the hands of other players may not be able to take it, otherwise, there will be more light cruisers in the current Blue Star player group, and Ye Bai’s situation will not cause a sensation among players in the chat board.

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Bai directly chose the [Yes] option, and at this time he was also rejoicing, glad that in order to maintain his current lead among players, when he found that he could not use these destroyer upgrade props to upgrade his destroyers, he did not hang these destroyer upgrade props in the trading section to sell to other players.

Otherwise, even if the system gave him such an opportunity, he would not have enough destroyer upgrade props to upgrade the Yuyuan, and if he missed this opportunity, he would not have to cry to death.

With the Yuyuan that has become a burden and the temporarily useless destroyer upgrade props in exchange for a real all-steel battleship, Ye Bai feels that this transaction is still relatively cost-effective, even if he still needs to pay 2 million funds, but it is still worth it.

After all, in the system mall, a basic version of a destroyer needs 20 million funds to buy, taking advantage of this upgrade opportunity, the Yuyuan can be upgraded to become a real destroyer no matter how bad it is, how to calculate it is earned.

[Players choose to modify and upgrade the wooden unprotected battleship, deduct the corresponding funds and destroyer upgrade props, the battleship upgrade system is being launched, please wait…]

【1%… 5%… 10%…… 95%… 100%, the battleship upgrade is completed, congratulations to the player for successfully obtaining an unnamed destroyer, please check the details by yourself]

There was no big surprise, just as the wooden cruiser Yangwu was upgraded to a destroyer, the wooden unprotected gunboat Yuyuan was successfully upgraded to an all-steel destroyer, bringing the number of destroyers under the Huaxia fleet to three.

Nodding with satisfaction, Ye Bai was about to enter the fleet plate, name the newly acquired destroyer, and carry out the transformation of the power system, fire system and other subsystems, but found that a prompt message appeared on the system panel again:

[Detected that the player is the first player to modify and upgrade their warship, achieve the system hidden achievement, get the hidden achievement reward, and upgrade the unnamed destroyer to an unnamed light cruiser, congratulations to the player]

After reading the system prompt information, the sadness on Ye Bai’s face was completely dissipated, and the large number of destroyer upgrade props and 2 million funds spent were completely a drop in the bucket in his opinion, and he didn’t feel the slightest sense of distress.

Originally, the Yuyuan was upgraded to a destroyer, Ye Bai already felt that it was earned, and now it has been upgraded to the light cruiser level, not a big profit, not to mention that according to the price of the system mall, the price of a light cruiser is nearly 30 million.

(PS: The Lin Xian class here is a treaty-type light cruiser built by the British Royal Navy in the 2030s.) Completely different from the Linxian class cruisers built before the First World War, so there is a big difference in price)

Entering the fleet plate with joy, Ye Bai checked the latest attributes of the brand new warship after being upgraded again:

【XXX—Light Cruiser】

【Displacement: 7000 tons】

【Speed: 32 knots】

[Equipment: 3 twin 152mm/50 caliber naval guns, 4 twin 102mm/45 caliber secondary guns, 6 40mm guns, 420mm guns, 2 triple 533mm mine tubes]

【Armor: 12000/12000】

Seeing the brand new battleship attribute panel, Ye Bai’s heartache completely disappeared, and the upgrade of the dare system this time not only upgraded the Yuyuan into an all-steel light cruiser, but also matched the power system, fire system and other subsystems inside, and there was no need for Ye Bai to spend additional money to improve and upgrade the battleship’s subsystem.

Especially at the bottom of the attribute list, there are more data introductions, including some subsystems, Ye Bai found that not only the most important power system and fire system, but also the radar system.

It is not the kind of primary sea search radar installed by Ye Bai on the Pengze and Yujiang, but the upgraded radar system, not only the sea search radar, but even the air search radar, the effective detection range has reached 20 kilometers, although it is not as good as the Yanhuang, but it is enough.

Seeing the radar system, Ye Bai really wanted to complain about the system mall again, when he first entered the world of navigation, this system mall was known as all-encompassing and all-encompassing, but in fact, this was not the case at all.. 0

Some civilian facilities are good, almost all of them, even including all kinds of people’s livelihood factories, military factories required equipment, production lines, etc. are sold, even warships of all classes can be purchased, although only the basic version.

The battleship subsystem can also be purchased, but some key equipment is not even visible, including the radar such a big killer, which means that players do not want to buy radar equipment from the system mall in addition to opening various treasure chests to fight for luck, otherwise, Ye Bai would have further upgraded the radar on the Yanhuang.

Originally, after obtaining this new light cruiser, Ye Bai was still worried about where to get a radar to install it, after all, this kind of good thing he had no inventory in his hands, who knew that the system was directly equipped for him.

According to the naming rules considered before, Ye Bai named the new light cruiser Dongyang, and then pulled Lütyans over, ready to discuss the staffing of this new Dongyang.

A light cruiser with a displacement of 7,000 tons needs to be equipped with a lot of personnel, even if it is not completely qualified for wartime establishment, it must be equipped with more than 500 people, and the key is to match a minimum officer command system.

Those ordinary crew members are good to say, although the number of people needed is quite large, but the price is cheap, 500 yuan can recruit a crew member, according to 500 people is only 250,000, which is not a problem at all.

The real trouble is those officers, first of all, the captain, but it is not like a destroyer with a lieutenant-level officer can be satisfied, at least a major, which requires 1 million to recruit one.

Coupled with 100,000 yuan to recruit 1 lieutenant-level officer, if you really want to build the officer command system of the Dongyang perfectly, the money spent is probably not a small amount.

Although Ye Bai still held more than 4 million funds in his hands before, he had also accumulated a lot of funds in the trade with the indigenous islands and the unpacking harvest after sinking a large number of pirate warships, but the cost was also 1.1 ah.

When upgrading the small space of the logistics cabin, it cost 1 million yuan to upgrade the ecological circulation system, and then transformed the power energy cabin and purchased a large number of power equipment, which cost a lot.

There are also thermal power plants, coal mines, artillery shell production plants, these factories need to buy and recruit related equipment and personnel are all purchased and recruited from the system mall, especially the raw materials required for mass production of shells, are not a little money.

Although he successfully upgraded the Dongyang to the light cruiser level this time, Ye Bai did not pay less, a full 2 million, this time Ye Bai’s family base was paid for more than half, and now the rest in his hand is about 4 million. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

This money seems to be a lot, but it can’t all be used to recruit officers, and in the case of the new activities of the system is about to open, at least 2 million spare funds must be left, so there is not much money that can be used to replenish the personnel of the light cruiser Dongyang.

Fortunately, Ye Bai was still by his side, and after knowing Ye Bai’s difficulties, he took the initiative to propose that the captain of the Yujiang be transferred to the Dongyang, and it was still enough to serve as the captain of a light cruiser with his rank of lieutenant.
