Chapter 530 Go to a meeting, to show the fleet?

When this meeting was held, the North African battle had completely ended, Sicily had been captured by the Allies and was advancing on the Apennine Peninsula.

The Mediterranean and North Africa are already basically safe, and considering the distance between the parties involved, the meeting was finally chosen in Cairo, Egypt.

But this meeting is not just a Cairo conference in history, but a combination of it with the subsequent Tehran conference.

Xu Xingchen's attendance this time was larger than last time, and his car was the new battleship "Qi" that had been launched shortly.

The standard displacement is 45,000 tons, the full load displacement is 55,000 tons, and the power output is 200,000 axle horsepower. It depends on the square stern design, and the speed can reach 32 knots at full load.

The main weapon is 4 triple-mounted 420mm 60-caliber naval guns, and the secondary gun is 8 double-mounted 130mm high-level dual-purpose naval guns.

Then there are 16 dual-mounted 76mm air-defense guns, and 16 dual-mounted 37mm air-defense guns.

The core of the escort fleet is the new medium-sized aircraft carrier Yangzhou, with a standard displacement of 36,000 tons, a full load displacement of 45,000 tons, a power of 200,000 axle horsepower, and a maximum speed of 34 knots.

The aircraft is equipped with 108 J-2 fighters, using a turboprop 5a Yuanwang modified version engine, with an engine weight of 620 kilograms and a maximum output power of 3536 horsepower.

The airplane has an empty weight of 3.5 tons, a maximum take-off weight of 8 tons, a maximum load weight of 4 tons, and a maximum flat flight speed of 800 kilometers per hour.

It is equipped with airborne radar and can use rockets, guided bombs, and air-to-air missiles.

Apart from the fact that the angled deck was not modified with jet aircraft, this is a modern aircraft carrier from the 1960s and 1970s.

In addition, two heavy patrols with a load of 24,000 tons and a 240mm naval gun were brought, and four air defense cruisers with a load of 8,000 tons were not brought directly to the destruction ship.

The supply ship was replaced by four new high-speed supply ships with a displacement of 20,000 tons, all of which could run at a speed of 25 knots.

Now it is safer on the road, so you can take a plane and hurry over.

Xu Xingchen wanted to lead the fleet to walk slowly. In addition to being cautious in nature, he wanted to show off his new fleet.

The arrival time was agreed before the four-party talks. Xu Xingchen set off in advance on the boat, but he also arrived on the same day.

The other three arrived a little earlier, but when they heard that Xu Xingchen had brought the fleet again, Luo Qiu and the two had a good relationship with Xu Xingchen, they invited Dalinzi to visit Xu Xingchen's fleet together. Anyway, the first day was used to get familiar with each other.

However, objectively speaking, this is actually a special visit to the dock. First, because Luo Qiu and the others have really received great help from Xu Xingchen to restore their health. At the same time, because Xu Xingchen's identity has become higher and higher with the continuous battle.

When Xu Xingchen's fleet entered the dock, not only Shi Dalin who had just flew over was shocked, but Master Luo and Fatty Qiu were also shocked again.

Xu Xingchen had previously said that they would build larger ships, but he didn't expect that they would drive directly in just half a year.

Xu Xingchen's battleship was basically the same size as Iowa, with a slightly shorter appearance. The overall hull was plump and not as thin as Iowa.

In fact, this design is actually normal. A battleship as slender as Iowa is not particularly stable as a shooting platform.

However, due to the width of the Panama Canal lock, Iowa and the previous American battleships could not exceed 33 meters.

Xu Xingchen, the European navy, and the European navies do not need to care about this thing, so the body shape of the warship can be more free and reasonable.

Moreover, the "Qi" has four triple turrets, which has three more main guns than Iowa. The size and caliber of the gun should be 16 inches, but it is obviously longer than Iowa, and should have a larger diameter and a larger range, which is very incredible.

In other words, from the outside, this ship is a little colder than Iowa.

In addition to the battleships, Xu Xingchen also brought an aircraft carrier with a size significantly greater than Essex, which was beyond Master Luo's expectations.

However, the bald eagle is a bald eagle after all. Master Luo thought about the several Montana and Midway on his boat platform, and the new locks of the Panama Canal that are already being expanded, and his mood calmed down a little.

At the same time, he thought that Xu Xingchen himself was sure to build a battleship of this size, so he would be even less psychologically stressed when he sold it to him, who was a little weaker.

Moreover, although this ship may be stronger than Iowa, it is still a warship of the same level. The victory or defeat on the battlefield cannot be determined by this difference, and there is no need to feel pressure.

In fact, what they didn't know was that the technical level of Xu Xingchen's ship had reached the 1960s and 1970s.

The gun barrel wall is thinner and the inner diameter is 420 mm. It looks similar to the 16-inch 406 mm outside, but in fact it is half an inch larger.

Moreover, the barrel is really longer, reaching an unprecedented 60-fold diameter in the main gun of the battleship, with a maximum range of 50 kilometers.

In addition to the unique tungsten alloy steel armor-piercing shells in the East, the shell of this 420mm naval gun is heavier than the 460mm Yamato shell, and its destructive power alone is already greater than that of the Yamato cannon.

What's more, it also has a loader with a higher degree of automation, with a rate of fire reaching 3 to 4 rounds per minute, almost twice that of traditional battleships.

There is also a fully automatic ballistic computer and a super-age fire-controlled radar. She can twist while swinging and has an extremely high hit rate just like in the game.

So let alone Iowa, even Yamato and Montana could not beat her. These traditional battleships could not reach the range at all, and would be seriously injured by her long-range.

Although Fatty Qiu next to him didn't know about this, he started to feel a little panicked when looking at the appearance of the warship simply.

Daying's own family does not have a battleship of this size. Although the lion class of the same level is under construction, due to the long-term lack of local resources, the overall progress is very slow.

If it weren't for Xu Xingchen's order guarantee, Fatty Qiu might have directly given up on the lion-level construction.

If Nanyang builds two more such battleships and asks the Bald Eagle to build two Iowa, then their main battleships will be able to suppress the British.

The size of aircraft carriers between the two sides is not much different. The Eagle-class aircraft carriers under construction in Britain are about this level.

In addition, the two sides are allies, and after acknowledging Nanyang, there was no conflict between the two sides, so Fatty Qiu was quite calm on the surface.

As for Shi Dalin, his mood was even more complicated than Luoqiu and the other two.

Everyone knows that the Iron and Charity Father loves traditional steel ships. Xu Xingchen, a perfect 45,000-ton battleship, couldn't take his eyes off after seeing it.

Of course, that aircraft carrier also made him envious.

Until his death, the Iron Father did not have his own aircraft carrier, nor did he successfully build new battleships, but only three old battleships passed down by Tsarist Russia.

Dalinzi instinctively felt that this matter was really unreasonable. Where did Xu Xingchen, the leader of the rebel army, get a new battleship? It’s okay if he can’t even build it himself!

Anyway, after thinking about it, this can only be done by the bald eagle.

Then after thinking about it, I secretly made up my mind that after the war, I would have to build several battleships.

It is best to build a few ships under construction. If not, ask Sandezi, Yidaili, and three defeated countries to compensate.

The best result is of course the strongest Yamato in history, which has already been published, but at least this requires being able to log in to the local area of ​​the footbowl chicken and participating in the division of the footbowl chicken's war property.

At the same time, the Russians originally wanted to participate in the battle against the squat chicken and were preparing to wash away the shame of the war more than 30 years ago. The battleship can be regarded as a side mission.

But no matter what, to achieve this goal, we need to have the permission of Xu Xingchen, who controls the situation on the east, and also the permission of the Bald Eagle and the help of the Navy...

So when Xu Xingchen got ashore, Dalinzi adjusted his mood slightly and put on a very enthusiastic attitude.

Xu Xingchen was also more cooperative. Just like when he first met Luo Qiu and the other two, he also prepared two gifts for Dalinzi.

One is the so-called medicinal bathtub like the two people of Luoqiu, and the other is a 100-to-1 battleship model with a complete design drawing.

The battleships on the model and drawings are the reduced versions of the Qi ships that Xu Xingchen was riding, which were reduced to the level that the Russians should be able to create after working hard.

The barrel became 50 times the diameter, and the number was reduced to three seats, leaving more space for the hull to install a larger power system, and the computer and radar were also cancelled.

As for Luoqiu and the other two, since it was not the first time they met, they did not prepare high-end gifts.

He prepared a pack of tobacco and tea for Fatty Qiu, and Master Luo made a pack of tea, plus a good short cane for red sandalwood.

Giving crutches to the elderly is not good, but it means that the other party is in poor health. The elderly in the East may be unhappy and will not give them even if they really need them.

But Xu Xingchen is equivalent to Master Luo's doctor, making Master Luo go from being paralyzed in the lower limbs to being able to walk shakingly, and the crutches became the most suitable gift, which made Master Luo very happy.

At the same time, Luoqiu and the other two received a big gift from Xu Xingchen last time, and this time they prepared relatively expensive gifts as gifts.

Both of them were rich and had carefully considered what gifts were valuable enough, but at the same time they did not seem vulgar and simple. In the end, both of them chose antiques.

Churchill gave a medieval one-handed knight sword, and Master Luo prepared a Renaissance oil painting.

Xu Xingchen couldn't appreciate the good or bad, but he thought it wouldn't be too bad, so he took it seriously, asked the ship girls to hold it away, and then looked at Dalinzi.

Dalinzi is in a complicated mood now, and he likes all the things given by Xu Xingchen very much.

He didn't know what the so-called bathtub was, but a new battleship drawing and model really hit his heart.

Before coming here, Master Luo reminded me that Xu Xingchen might give me some gifts for the first time, and asked Shi Dalin to prepare for a return gift in advance.

Dalinzi did prepare, it was a clock made by the Russians. Compared with the gifts of the two bourgeoisie, Luoqiu, the value was of course incomparable.

The key point is that Dalinzi himself did not expect that Xu Xingchen was so generous in his actions, and it was not just exaggerating and precious.

Instead, it was given a warship design drawing that could combine industry, art, culture and military, which can be considered priceless to some extent...

So Dalinzi felt that the clocks he prepared were relatively unprofitable.

However, as a real boss, Shi Dalin was not embarrassed or embarrassed in the end. He also took the gift back very readily, and said very proactively:

"We have no bourgeois wealth, which is the watch produced by our Kirov watch factory, which can remind us to pay attention to time and efficiency.

"But even if you only calculate the value of labor, it cannot be compared with the set of drawings you give you. It is the crystallization of technology and industry.

"So we can fight with you in the East and destroy our common enemies, the guys on the island."

Xu Xingchen can understand all human languages ​​and speak most human languages, including Latin and Maozi.

Now that I heard Da Linzi's words, I was speechless and shocked.

I actually don’t care whether the things you send are expensive or not. I mainly want you to live a few more years so that the post-war situation that we have finalized will last for a few more years.

But you took advantage of the opportunity that the gift was not worth enough and took the opportunity to ask yourself to cook chicken with you, which was already the place where the meat in your pot was already there, which was very scheming.
