Outside the Jiaozhou Bay off the coast of Qingdao, the People's Liberation Army Navy fleet is sailing here. After the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War, China's own powerful navy has not appeared again for decades. Qingdao has become an excellent port for Germany and Japan, with warships here

Stop and go, while the Chinese people looked at the smoke columns rising from the warship chimneys and could only sigh.

However, the situation has changed at this time. Qi Yuan destroyed the Japanese combined fleet, recovered the wreckage of the warships, rebuilt a more advanced fleet, and handed it over to the People's Liberation Army Navy. Of course, now the people in the navy who really understand the navy

They are sailors under the control of Qi Yuan's command tower, and the newly established navy has recruited a group of red progressives, including shipwrights, young students, etc. to join the navy. Although these people are now on the ship, they are mainly

As an apprentice, apart from wiping the deck, you can't do complicated things.

At this time, the fleet sent to Qingdao consisted of a 50,000-ton Proletarian-class battleship, a Warcry-class heavy cruiser, three Taizhou-class destroyers (an improved version of Type 051), and a Flying Sturgeon-class conventionally powered submarine.

(Improved version of the Romeo class). These ships are basically one generation ahead of the ships of the World War II era. The naming does not follow the serial number of another dimension, but uses the ship class naming like the international mainstream.

In fact, several of the ships blocked in Jiaozhou Bay at this time were guests from the United States. As a member of the officer corps that came to China to contact the CPC this time, U.S. Navy Vice Admiral Halsey learned that the PLA Navy was attacking the Japanese army.

After there is a military operation, the Dunmu Fleet is requested to participate in this naval military operation.

The fleet includes the Tennessee-class battleship USS California, the Brooklyn-class cruiser USS Nashville, and several destroyers. It is roughly the same size as the People's Liberation Army Navy ship formation, but slightly smaller in tonnage.

In fact, Halsey's appearance itself was for the sudden appearance of a naval fleet of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. Roosevelt and others could not understand how such a large-scale fleet was suddenly created by the Chinese. In order to understand the strength of the Chinese navy,

Halsey made a special trip to China and joined the fleet.

Halsey stood on the bridge of the USS California, looking at the huge Chinese battleship not far from him. For a moment, he felt baffled and had mixed feelings. This battleship named Proletarian has a beautiful hull.

, and in terms of tonnage, even the current

There is no such large battleship in the U.S. Navy. But such a huge and powerful battleship actually appeared in the hands of the Chinese without warning. Halsey speculated that it must be related to the wheel king, who obviously has the wheel king.

The mysterious power of the Wheel King was created and provided for the Chinese people.

"However, this battleship is really strange. Although it has such a huge hull, it only has two triple turrets. However, the 406mm main gun is really cute to look at. Waiting for Iowa

Once the class is in service, our U.S. Navy will also have such a configuration." Halsey thought and laughed.

Standing next to him was an officer of the People's Liberation Army Navy. This man was naturally a professional naval officer under Qi Yuan's control. As Halsey's companion, after all, this was a battle in China. It was obvious that Halsey was wondering why.

The Proletarian class only has two turrets. The officer explained his doubts:

"Our Proletarian class not only uses naval guns as its main attack weapon, but in ship-to-ship battles, we have a new type of weapon that can better attack the enemy."

When Halsey heard what he said, he was also curious. Since he said it, it meant that the Chinese did not want to keep it secret. He quickly asked: "What kind of weapon is this?"

The naval officer smiled and said: "General, you will be able to see it with your own eyes soon."

Halsey patiently made a lot of guesses. He imagined everything from special carrier-based aircraft to heavy-duty torpedoes. The more he thought about it, the more curious he became, so he stretched his neck and waited for the so-called mysterious weapon.

The mixed fleet of the People's Liberation Army and the US military is actually dispatched this time mainly to intercept the troop transport ships preparing to unwrap and return to the Japanese mainland in Qingdao Port. At this stage, the Japanese army has no decent naval ships to escort them, but the Japanese soldiers still have to return.

Home, this is the only way

Bite the bullet and board the ship. After many days of reconnaissance by spy satellites and the discovery of large-scale soldier movements in Qingdao Port, the naval fleet set out to blockade Qingdao Port. At this time, there was no radar and the Japanese army had no idea what was outside Jiaozhou Bay.

It is a gathering of Chinese and American warships.

On the Proletarian, the radar department reported: "Japanese warships have been found appearing in the direction of our ship 0-1-2, numbering 4. They are all small and medium-sized civilian ships."

The captain of the Proletarian laughed and said: "The Japanese army no longer has any decent troop transport ships, and all the warships are almost destroyed. They want to get some small broken ships with hundreds of tons or more to transport tens of thousands of Japanese devils back."

, we have to tell him that we can’t do it!”

"Anti-ship missiles are prepared to attack the above four targets respectively."

"Ready, launch!"

The anti-ship missiles on the Proletarian are actually slightly upgraded versions of the first-generation anti-ship missiles, that is, China's SY-1 missiles have been slightly improved. If these anti-ship missiles can hit the thick armor of a battleship, they will definitely not be able to do so.

Yes, but the current enemies of the Proletarian are some civilian ships even with wooden shells. It is a bit luxurious to actually use anti-ship missiles to attack them.

On the other hand, these anti-ship missiles are all remade from scrap materials, so the cost is almost zero. When the People's Liberation Army Navy uses these missiles, it is naturally as if they are free of money. In another aspect, the US military used Hellfire in Iraq.

The local tycoon style of the three terrorists is similar to the current action of using anti-ship missiles to attack fishing boats.

Anti-ship missiles on battleships all have missile launch boxes and no vertical launch units. A large battleship like the Proletarian is equipped with a total of 16 anti-ship missile launch boxes. SY-1 is not that big an anti-ship missile.

Missiles don't take up much space either.

Halsey on the California looked at what looked like a rectangular water tank. It actually sprayed out thick smoke, and what looked like a large rocket jumped out from the ship. Lieutenant General Halsey watched.

It is clear that this rocket-like weapon made an obvious trajectory adjustment in the air, and then sped away in the direction of Jiaozhou Bay.

Halsey pointed at the tail of the smoke and shouted: "Is that your secret weapon? A large rocket that can be deflected, used to hit ships?"

The Chinese naval officer narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Yes, we call this weapon a missile, and the missile used to deal with propagation is also called an anti-ship missile. It has its own engine and can fly very far like an airplane.

For example, the range of this SY-1 missile can reach 60 kilometers, which is completely beyond the visual range of the sea, and it carries a guidance head that can help the missile find its target and hit the enemy with complete accuracy."

Halsey was quite incredible and said: "Can it find the enemy by itself without a human being driving it?"

"Yes, the fire control radar on the battleship is its eyes, pointing out the direction of attack."

Halsey was silent for a moment and said: "If this weapon is really what you said, I'm afraid this will be a weapon that changes the future naval combat model."

He looked at the battleships at his feet and sighed: "Then battleships carrying heavy guns will probably completely disappear from the stage of history. I think your destroyers also have such a thing. Use destroyers to launch such missiles to attack large ships.

It will be extremely cost-effective, and large ships are more likely to become targets for the enemy."

The Chinese naval officer said: "You are right, General. Moreover, the status of battleships has been challenged by aircraft carriers. Only in the future will aircraft carriers assume the role of the core of the fleet strike."

Halsey is a U.S. Navy general, and the natural way is that the aircraft carrier faction within the U.S. military is increasingly prosperous. Although there is no Pearl Harbor incident in this dimension, which shows the huge effectiveness of the Japanese military's use of aircraft carriers, the Americans still seized the opportunity and correctly

It is believed that aircraft carriers will definitely replace battleships in the future. However, at this time, battleships are still the most terrifying maritime weapons, at least in the eyes of the enemy, so the Americans are still sparing no effort to build battleships such as Iowa.

Because it was outside the visual range, Halsey did not directly see the attack effect of the anti-ship missile, but as the fleet approached Jiaozhou Bay, the transport ship that had just been hit was left with a piece of debris on the sea, and some

The Japanese soldiers who were still alive were struggling in the water. Because it was a troop transport ship, there were so many people there that it was as dense as a summer beach.

At this distance, it is no longer necessary to use anti-ship missiles. Chinese and American ships began to violently bombard various ships recruited by the Japanese army in Qingdao Port. Not to mention civilian ships, even ordinary warships encountered this

The powerful naval gun attack was not unreasonable at all. The large-caliber naval gun hit the small wooden-hulled ship, which directly caused the ship to explode into a piece of wreckage, and the Japanese soldiers on it suffered a large number of casualties.

The Japanese had to jump off the ship to escape. They had just boarded the ship, but they were attacked by a Chinese and American mixed fleet before they left the port. They jumped into the water and swam to the shore. There was still a way to survive. Staying on the ship was absolutely impossible.

There is no doubt that he will die.

Halsey on the California looked at the Chinese warships bombarding Qingdao Port, his eyes became very serious, he couldn't help but secretly said: "China almost did not have a decent navy before the war. Facing Japan's master fleet, it actually sank in the Yangtze River.

However, the quality of their navy soldiers is also extremely poor, and the lack of funds also makes

So they can't train normally at all. And now looking at these CPC naval ships, the combat effectiveness is obviously among the first-class navy, even better than some American ships that have been poorly trained. The strike level and hit rate of the naval guns are both good. After all, China

How did one build such a navy?"

The navy is a technical arm and has always been considered a technical arm. Only by spending a lot of money and time on training for a long time can we obtain skilled naval officers and soldiers. Moreover, a country's navy is also related to tradition. Without naval tradition, a fleet with a chaotic style will

Even if you have good ships, they can only increase the results for others in the end. Typical examples are China's Beiyang Fleet and the Russian Navy in the late Tsarist Russia.

Halsey couldn't help but think that this fleet seemed to have more than just powerful ships. It seemed that even the soldiers on board were packed and sent.

On China's offshore waters, the Chinese have won control of the sea. This is the first time in modern times that the Chinese have controlled their own offshore sea power. Due to the control of sea power, the return of the Japanese army has become extremely difficult, and apparently the United States also wants to
