How did I become a villain

Hmph, I get excited just thinking about it.

As for the British, you don't have to be sad to die before you leave the teacher. At least you don't have to die so many people to sum up these lessons.

This is not a good thing.

So Griffin copied it without any psychological burden, and copied it thoroughly, very cleanly, and there was no soup left for others.

Although big countries with aircraft carriers are aware of the hidden dangers and disadvantages brought by a single runway, it is not that they have tried to speed up the attendance of carrier-based aircraft. Catapults are one of the solutions, but they have never thought of adding an extra runway to the original runway. .It wasn't until Griffin drew the final design of the beveled deck that Howard realized that the problems that plagued most aircraft carrier designers, aircraft carrier commanders, and pilots were solved so simply.

Griffin designed this thing, not to mention preparing for future jet aircraft, even the current propeller-powered aircraft is also useful.It can double the take-off and landing speed of carrier-based aircraft.

Even after seeing this, Howard couldn't help but think of "why didn't he think of this good idea earlier".

Yes, it is obvious that just drawing an extra runway can bring so many benefits, why didn't the aircraft carrier designer think of it?

The original intention of the inclined deck design is to allow jet aircraft to take off and land on the aircraft carrier.

If the Essex class was designed like this at that time, the Japanese would have been defeated by them long ago.

Suppressing some turbulent emotions, Howard asked calmly: "...This is an innovative idea. Is this what you came up with?"

The girl nodded boldly. "A random thought."

"Then how to solve the problem of short-distance takeoff?"

"With your IQ, I think you should be able to think of it."

Howard thought for a moment. "Catapult?"

"clever."

Griffin deliberately didn't say this, she was hiding it.If he had just brought this thing with him, he would have to explain more.

This is not in line with her character of staying on the front line in everything.

"So, why didn't you just say it by the way?" Howard spread his hands.

"It's easy for me to talk about it, but what if I say it, you learn it, and you don't admit it after it's over?" Griffin said as a matter of course, imitating the other party's movements and spreading his hands. "You are so smart, even if I don't say something, even if it's just the beginning, you can guess the follow-up. So what do I do so much?"

The author's signature is not even written on it. If I speak too clearly, if someone with a heart learns it all, how can I transform the United States?

Noticing the girl's meaningful gaze, Howard shook his head.

What a cunning girl.

"If you don't say it, how will you know if we are thinking in the same direction? Wouldn't it be ridiculous if the tacit understanding you thought turned out to be in the opposite direction?" He looked at the girl with a complicated expression. "Besides, you think us too badly, don't you? You should believe that the protection of intellectual property rights in the United States is the best in the world."

"Yeah, for this reason, I don't even want to pay a high patent fee while I'm alive." Griffin said in agreement with a pure face.

Howard was about to open his mouth to brag, but now he seemed to be stuck with an apple, so he could only cover up his embarrassment by raising his eyebrows.

In fact, he intended to say that these are all your Griffin's innovations. I can testify that you will not only gain fame but also a bonus by then.Howard himself has achieved a lot over the years, and he can't compete with a child.

"Having said that, Griffin, although your innovation is significant, I still want to pour cold water on you-if you pay attention to a government application for a patent, it is almost impossible to pass."

As long as you build an aircraft carrier with an angled deck, all countries in the world will pay you patent fees. Don't you think the money is too hot?

Aside from the fact that you are the owner of the Rubik's Cube, a hostage sent by Germany, no one to rely on, and no one to speak lightly, except for a real man who does business like me and does not forget to engage in charity, who would really be willing to take care of you like a relative, and you Heart to heart?Not to mention that the current government has a majority of opinions on how to squeeze the energy of the Rubik's Cube for its own use.

To put it bluntly, except for a pure and kind person like me, who would have sympathy for extracting the remaining assets of the weak?

Applying for a patent... Then really don't think about it, how can the United States apply for something so suitable for military construction?Or to put it bluntly, why do people share technical achievements with you?

The United States does attach great importance to the protection of intellectual property rights, but that is the intellectual property rights of the United States itself.

It is impossible to approve a patent, and it is impossible to approve it in this life, but there are other ways.

"...If it's reselling technology and doing a one-time transaction, I can help you plan one or two."

The angled deck is very important to the navy. With Howard's relationship in the navy, it is very possible to convince the generals.Coupled with his contacts in the government, it is not impossible to facilitate this business.

Besides, it's good for him too.After the news of a large number of aircraft carrier renovations is released in the future, is it difficult to earn this modification fee?

As long as Stark Corporation has mature modification technology, is it possible that there will be no formal construction orders in the future?

"That's what I think." Griffin nodded cautiously in agreement.She had also thought about Howard's suggestion, and the solution also coincided with the other party's proposal.The United States even wants to renege on the patent fees for light bulbs, let alone military technology? "I didn't even plan to pay per view in the first place, because that's just not realistic."

She is the sincerity sent by Germany, and an important link for maintaining the vassal relationship between the two countries. If conditions permit, she doesn't mind suffering a little loss.Who made the wife's natal family need her to save it?

"I think it's feasible." Seeing that the girl was so easy to talk to, Howard also heaved a sigh of relief.

He was also worried about the other party's one-sidedness.

Long-term payment is of course impossible, but there is indeed room for negotiation for a business that can be bought for a sum of money.

In order for the Stark Group to grasp the world's number one core competitiveness, be at the forefront of the world's capitalists, and set a positive example for this group of inhumane vampires, Howard of course needs to take this matter seriously.

Quickly sorting out his thoughts, Howard felt in a good mood, and he didn't care about Griffin's little thoughts when he was comfortable.Without hesitation, he praised: "Griffin, you are such a genius. You may not realize it, or you may realize it-you have created a whole new era. The era of aircraft carriers."

"Thanks, that's what I thought." The girl admitted it cheekily. "If you can give me the title of 'Mother of Modern Aircraft Carriers' and pass it down in history, I will be happier."

Volume 90.4: [-] arrives

Wouldn't it be nice to mess around with eye drops for England?

On the matter of killing the former number one in the world, Germany and the United States have the same idea.

The two uncles and nephews complimented each other, and Howard said seriously: "As you said, Griffin, if this technology is handed over to the United States Navy, they will definitely regard you as their own. But you want to exchange What exactly is it?"

Don't tell me it's just a technology transfer fee, I don't believe it.

This innovation is so important that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a disruptive technology. I don't believe that you just use it to make a windfall. Such a pattern is too small.

To say the least, it is for my wife and her natal family; to say it big, it is for the well-being of all mankind.Technology is always spread to the world. Today I can use military technology to win over the navy, and tomorrow I can improve civilian technology.

Thinking of this, Griffin said: "Of course. Except for your parents, no one will greet you for no reason. To be honest, I haven't figured out the long-term goal, but there is a short-term goal... Wait until the war In the end, I will pass this technology on to you when necessary, and I will ask for a guarantee from the Navy in person. An opportunity to transform a group of old aircraft carriers headed by the Graf Zeppelin when necessary ensure."

Naval ships are replaced every 30 years, except for a very few representative ones that will survive, and the rest will eventually be dismantled and sold for scrap.Whether it is the enterprise or Saratoga, the final outcome may not be so good.After finally discovering two ship spirits in the United States, it is a good thing to entertain Zeppelin as a companion. How can they just disappear like this?

It seems reckless and eager to propose an angled deck at this time, but there are also deeper considerations.Better to live in Saratoga than to lie on the bottom of Bikini Atoll.With the legendary nature of the enterprise, if it can be improved to a higher level, as the first batch of aircraft carriers to undergo the modification of the inclined deck, even if it is a test product and a pioneer, isn't it worth saving?

And Zeppelin, no matter what her name is or what she looks like, I can't leave her alone.If they don't do something for the navy, why should they protect her for themselves?

Howard took a deep look at Griffin from head to toe.

According to past experience, he instinctively thought that this girl must have some other purpose that he didn't disclose, but no matter how he looked at it, the reason she said now seemed to be all.

But why do I always feel that... things are not that simple?

She seems to have a special feeling for the aircraft carrier under her feet. Combined with recent events, the girl's behavior is always in consideration of the ship.Although this may seem strange, it is not so incomprehensible to explain it.Just as sailors have the same affection for ships that have been in service all year round, maybe Griffin has similar feelings for this ship because of some special opportunities.

After all, she is only 15 years old, her mental development is not perfect, and she once went deep into the Arctic Ocean alone. The dependence on this ship should be similar to the dependence on her mother?

"You really like to plan ahead... Well, if that day comes, I'll be more than happy to help you, ma'am."

The man's movements were standard, but Griffin couldn't help wrinkling his nose from his posturing posture.

"Don't be so serious all of a sudden, okay? Uncle, you look weird when you're serious."

Howard was not happy, he retorted: "I have always thought that I look so handsome that no normal woman can resist it. It seems that you are an exception."

1945, June, late.

The task force located in the eastern waters of Japan ushered in a long-overdue dual aircraft carrier formation.

"You are late, ladies. We just launched several bombings against Japan not long ago." Lieutenant General Mitchell received Halsey and others who came to hand over the work on the flagship Randolph. "Whether it's Essex or Independence, Iowa or South Dakota, even the submarines want to surface and use deck guns to wash their ground. There are still two bombing missions per day for a month. There's really no room left."

"Then we'll send the planes inland. As long as we're far enough from the coastline, we'll always have targets to bomb." Halsey smiled nonchalantly. "To me, those short people who live in the bamboo hut count as one, and none of them are innocent."

When he witnessed the tragedy of Pearl Harbor, he vowed to drive out the Japanese.

Old John, who is Halsey's deputy, also thinks deeply.

These Japanese should have expected such a day when they dropped the bombs on their heads.

According to Old John, the Navy should also organize a fleet like General Li Mei, find a city with a lot of Japanese, and do BBQ again.And he will not have any sympathy for the death of these fascists and their supporters, like LeMay.

"What's the matter with that ship?" After exchanging pleasantries, Mitchell turned his attention to the aircraft carrier docked next to the Saratoga, covered with forests of spikes.With sharp eyes, he immediately recognized that these spiked real bodies were all various types of rockets, which looked more advanced than those on active rocket support ships, which made Mitchell even more curious.

"CVR-44, Midway class, Mariana." Old John explained to the lieutenant general, his tone filled with pride and pride. "It is equipped with the latest Mark mini-missile developed by Stark Corporation."

Of course, he had reason to be so happy after participating in the whole operation.

"Missile? It's really not easy to shrink the missile to this level." Mitchell was surprised. "But I'm more concerned about its destructive power."

Old John laughed and said, "The custody surprised you, Lieutenant General."

Halsey put his hands on his hips, and turned half of his upper body to look at this special aircraft carrier. "In fact, besides bringing new supplementary soldiers and equipment, we also have a special mission here. She is the flagship of this mission. And you are the commander of this special mission."

"Special mission? What special mission? I thought I would be able to lie on the beach for vacation in two days." Mitchell said unexpectedly. "The two of you sing together, is this a stage play?"

"It's more meaningful than a stage play. This is a theme play about the return of a hero." Halsey laughed. "You are also the starring role in this play. The relevant documents signed by General Nimitz have been placed in the room of the commander of the fleet and locked with a safe. You will know when you read it. As for the secret of this ship... …As the commander of the mission, I believe you will have enough time to understand along the way."

Mitchell nodded when he heard the words, and didn't ask any more questions.

Volume 91: Operation [-] to Save Captain America

later.The bridge of Graf Zeppelin.

Lieutenant General Mitchell met Howard, the leader of the Stark Company, who was accompanying the army.

He was deeply impressed by this young and promising scientist active in the European battlefield.Unlike those vampires who like to hide and smoke cigars in a safe and comfortable office in the local area, this young man often appears at the forefront of the battlefield. Although he does not personally carry a gun to participate in the war, he can always create equipment that suits the current battlefield environment.

Although they are basically prepared for superheroes, and they are all concentrated in the European battlefield, they have no intersection with themselves in the Pacific battlefield.

But none of this prevented Mitchell from speaking kindly.

"Are you here to sell new equipment?"

Howard was wearing a white coat for scientific research. The thick mustache on his upper lip and bags under the eyes caused by cultivating immortals are always his standard. While eating strawberry ice cream, the man said: "You guessed wrong, Your Excellency General, we are not here To join the fight."

Declining the glass of ice cream that was handed over, Mitchell said again: "Then it's impossible for you to come to participate in the surrender ceremony?"

Coming for no reason, it is easy to be regarded as a gilded dude. For a talented person like Howard, he doesn't bother to do such things.

"This is one of the purposes of our trip. But not now, but after completing the task." Sitting down at the invitation of the other party, Howard expressed his intention. "Received the president's secret order, we need to dispatch a partial division to go to the North Pole. The weight of this partial division must be sufficient, but it must not affect the situation on the front line. The preliminary decision is at least one battleship and one regular aircraft carrier, and A frigate of corresponding size, so please general deploy it for us."

Mitchell nodded knowingly.He had learned of this from the appointment papers in his safe.

"Go to the North Pole? What are you going to do in the North Pole?" asked a middle-aged officer who was following the lieutenant general.

"This is my chief of staff, Colonel Burke." Mitchell introduced.

"It's a pleasure to meet you. The Colonel's '31st Burke' is famous." Speaking of the words of the honored meeting in a rude tone, Howard took the time to explain. "I'll correct Colonel Burke, it's not 'you', it's 'us'."

"Okay, 'we'." The colonel raised his brow. "Why are we going to the North Pole at this time? Is there anything that must be done there? Is it against the Soviet Union, or something else?"

"In order to welcome the return of Captain America." Howard glanced at Lieutenant General Mitchell who knew the inside story, and simply announced the answer. "We have received definite information that Steve Rogers, the hero who saved the United States, is near Canada in the Arctic Ocean. The main purpose of our visit this time is to select a fleet to grandly welcome his return. He has already missed the surrender ceremony of Germany. Japan should not be missed again. This is the opinion of the White House and Capitol Hill."

"Are you going to spend a month crossing the two oceans?" Colonel Burke couldn't help frowning. "It's impossible to go back and forth for nearly [-] kilometers."

Well, it’s impossible or not, as long as the weather and sea conditions are favorable, the fleet can maintain a speed of 30 knots without rest for more than half a month.But the reality can't be so unreasonable. Not to mention the impact of weather and sea conditions and continuous voyage on the power of the ship and the morale of the officers and soldiers. Even if they arrive at the destination, how can they guarantee that Captain America's whereabouts can be found immediately?Not to mention soaking in ice for so long, it will take time to recover even the strongest body functions. Are you planning to carry his hospital bed to the Japanese surrender ceremony?

"The generals fight the wars, and the politicians negotiate. But I still have to say, this group of congressmen in suits and ties always likes to make some suggestions that the military thinks are difficult for others."

"Yes. So we only need to take a small part of the fleet." Howard said.

He wasn't trying to excuse the members of Congress, but the matter involved his close friend Steve.Given the contributions he has made to the United States, isn't it worthwhile for the United States to mobilize people for his return?

"Steve crashed a Hydra aircraft into the Arctic Ocean and prevented the United States from being hit by a giant bomb. His actions saved millions of people. It is not an exaggeration to call him a national hero. Now that the Navy has the ability to welcome him Returning, we are naturally duty-bound." Mitchell seemed much more understanding about this. "Before I step down as commander of the task force, I will select suitable ships to form the return fleet."

"Thank you General for your understanding, please allow me to express my most sincere wishes to you... May you live a long life!"

If there is a hat, Howard will immediately get up and take it off.

Mitchell laughed a few times, then restrained his expression, and mentioned the key issue.

"It's just... How are you going to solve the back and forth journey? After months of bombing, although the Japanese are still struggling, the day of surrender is not far away. I can almost see the dawn of the end of the war Even if they don't surrender themselves, our landing force can force them to surrender. How do you ensure that the fleet can return as scheduled after finding Captain America? Will Steve himself be able to attend on time?"

"About the distance, don't worry, we have our solution." After confirming that there were only the three of them in the room, Howard lowered his voice and said, "The Cosmic Rubik's Cube is in our hands, and we have already analyzed some of its uses. It can be effective Shorten the time required for this operation, so we can only be early, not late."

"Thank you for your frankness. Since this is the case, I have no objection." Mitchell glanced at the chief of staff beside him, and believed that Colonel Burke also understood the importance of this mission. "Let's make a list of those involved in the action, and we will act as soon as possible."

After much coordination, Vice Admiral Mitchell finally dispatched a squadron of twelve warships of various types from the huge fleet in the Pacific Ocean, including three capital ships including the Earl Zeppelin. , and personally acted as the fleet commander for this operation.

It is worth mentioning that the fleet also includes the light cruiser USS Brooklyn named after the birthplace of Captain America Steve Rogers.

[The front line needs me, so I won't accompany you.I wish you all the best. ] Saratoga waved the tentacles of the soul to Griffin.

【Thank you senior for your guidance along the way. ] Zeppelin also politely replied.

During the journey with Saratoga, Zeppelin learned the most crucial aircraft carrier knowledge, and developed a master-student-like respect for this kind of person who always likes to speak caring words in an indifferent tone.
