Chapter 346: Don’t the Japanese want to colonize the United States? (Please subscribe, please vote)
Zhuge Weidao really didn't know that the Japanese and American devils in Texas were fighting dog-eat-dog, although the dog-eat-dog seemed to be his own plan. He took the airship back to Beijing this time to represent the Nanyang Fleet to the Navy Department and the Naval Staff.
Report on the work and participate in the reorganization meeting of the three major fleets and one minor four fleets of the Navy.
Just a few days ago, Viscount Beresford, commander of the Malayan Corps of the British and Indian Army, signed an agreement for the peaceful transfer of Temasek Fortress. According to this agreement, the British and Indian troops in Temasek Fortress and some captured white soldiers
The British and Indian soldiers will leave Temasek Island and Malacca Prisoner of War Camp on Dutch warships and merchant ships, heading for India. The Temasek Fortress and the rations, silver coins, ammunition, weapons, and other miscellaneous things stored in the fortress by the British and Indian troops will all
Handed over to the Ming-Japanese coalition forces.
At this point, the Battle of Malacca has ended successfully! A Strait Province was soon added to the territory of the Ming Empire.
After seizing control of the Malay Peninsula and the Straits of Malacca, the Ming Navy's three main fleets, three large and one small, obviously need to be reorganized. Because the Ming Navy's waterway into the Indian Ocean is now unimpeded, and its sea control in the Indian Ocean is at least
Half of them are also in the hands of the Ming Navy, so the time is ripe for establishing a Western fleet.
In addition, the Persian Gulf "existence" fleet blocking the Persian Gulf will also be incorporated into the Western Fleet and become the second detachment of the Western Fleet.
At the same time, the Ming Navy is also preparing to launch a campaign against the Dutch East Indies, Spanish Southern Luzon Islands and Oceania.
Therefore, it is necessary to reorganize the Nanyang Fleet and shift the mission direction of the Nanyang Fleet from the Strait of Malacca to the above-mentioned places. The focus of this is of course the conquest of Oceania.
The Beiyang Fleet also needs to be reorganized into the Eastern Fleet, and its home port should also be moved from Busan to Pearl Harbor in the Kingdom of Hawaii. After the Ming Dynasty captured Hawaii last time, the construction of the Pearl Harbor naval base was in full swing. Until recently, Pearl Harbor
The first phase of the naval base project has been completed, and the home port of the Eastern Fleet can finally be moved there.
After the Malacca Channel was controlled by the Ming Navy, the mainland coast of the Ming Dynasty was theoretically absolutely safe. Therefore, there was no need to retain the mainland fleet. It was enough to set up a coast guard fleet.
Finally, the aircraft carriers directly under the jurisdiction of HNA Admiral Yamen will also be returned to the factory for modification and upgrade after the Malacca Battle, and blocking ropes, blocking nets, and mirrors will be installed to assist in lowering mirrors. After the modification is completed, the three "Liaodong" class aircraft carriers will be used as training aircraft carriers
The four Shu Zhongwang class ships (there was only one before, but the other three have recently been undergoing sea trials) will be allocated to the three main fleets after the modification is completed.
This series of adjustments is easy to say, but it takes a lot of work to actually complete it.
In addition, the first ship of the new 25,000-ton battlecruiser "Shihuang" class has recently begun sea trials - the Navy originally planned to equip this class of battlecruisers with all-oil boilers and a 75,000-horsepower steam turbine system.
As a result, the development of the 75,000-horsepower host was delayed, so we had to settle for the next best thing and use an alternative 60,000-horsepower host.
The plans for a new fleet aircraft carrier based on the Shihuang-class hull and power system, as well as the plan for a 30,000-ton battleship based on the Shihuang-class power system, have been completed and will await approval from the Naval Armament Commission. Zhuge Weidao
He will also serve as a member of the Arms Committee and participate in the review and approval of these two plans.
When the aircraft carriers and battleships of these two projects are put into service in large numbers, the Ming Navy's advantage on the ocean will be even greater!
According to Zhuge Weidao's earlier idea, we had to wait until the 25,000-ton battle cruisers, aircraft carriers and 30,000-ton battleships were put into service in batches before the Japanese in Texas could attack the American in Texas.
By then, maybe the Ecuadorian canal will be repaired!
But I didn't expect that the two devils in Texas couldn't hold it back and started fighting first. It was indeed a bit troublesome!
When he got into Yu De's newly bought "Big Red Rabbit" limousine and headed to his home in Goulan Hutong in Beijing, Zhuge Weidao suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he asked Yu De with a smile: "Brother Xiaoqian, this
The fight between the Japanese and the Americans in Texas has something to do with whether the political council can't be held?"
"Well." Yu De said with a smile, "Actually, the council is meeting today, but the matters discussed are not important, so I asked for leave to come to the airport to pick you up."
Zhuge Weidao laughed: "Xiaoqian, why are you so polite to me? Did Mr. Yu ask you to come? Or?"
"It's not the old man. The old man has no idea. What does Shiye (referring to Zhuge Weiyi) say?" Yu De shook his head, "To be honest, he is your old acquaintance, the lord of the Mito domain in Japan and the commander of the navy.
Tokugawa Saiaki. He arrived in Beijing one day earlier than you and also came by airship."
It turns out that Yu De was invited by Tokugawa Qi Zhao to persuade Zhuge to become a Taoist.
"That's it?" Zhuge Weidao smiled, "Isn't it right? We have spent so much money in the past two years to transport so many Japanese prodigals to Texas, isn't it just to make them fight against the United States? You and I are still needed for this.
Say? Takaken, what does Tokugawa Qiaki mean?"
Yu De smiled and said: "Daozi, I don't understand what you mean. Why don't you drop by the big black house next to the big fence? Tokugawa Qi Zhao lives there."
Daikokuya's Daikokuya has become more and more prosperous in the past two years. It has moved from "specialty catering" to "specialty hotel". It's not that catering is no longer available, but that catering and hotels are both done together, and they are all "specialty hotels".
"Yes, if you feel tired after eating, you can just stay in the hotel.
Zhuge Weidao nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I am indeed a little hungry. Let's go to Daheiwu for lunch together!"
"Dele!" Yu De smiled and said to the driver in the front seat, "San'er, let's go to Rouge Alley, Daheiwu."
The Beijing branch of Daheiwu is located deep in Rouge Hutong, one of the eight famous alleys next to Dashilar. It rents a large courtyard at the end of the alley, and after a lot of renovations, it turned into a full-sized courtyard.
It is full of "Tang style" buildings.
Although it is open for business, the gate of the courtyard where the Daheiwu is located is always closed. Only regular customers will open it for a while in cars and carriages. As for ordinary guests, they will open through another small door.
Went in. However, a "specialty hotel" of this level doesn't have many ordinary guests who come to play. Oh, the people who come to stay in the hotel are all rich or expensive.
Yu De's "big red rabbit" seems to come often. The doorman saw him from a distance and opened one of the two closed doors for him without asking or asking for a reward.
Let the "Big Red Rabbit Car" enter.
After the car drove in, it stopped directly in front of a "tenement building". A warrior from Mito Domain who was guarding in front of the tenement building came up and opened the door for Yu De and Zhuge Weidao, and then knelt down on one knee to greet them.
.
As soon as Zhuge Weidao got off the car, he saw Tokugawa Noriaki, who was wearing a kimono, and a few little devils standing at the door and bowing to him. He was so attentive and persuasive.
Yu De came forward, the little devil probably wanted to do something big this time!
Zhuge Weidao said in his heart: "You guys, you guys, didn't learn the wrong experience from the Malay Peninsula Campaign, and thought that the Westerners were weak and weak, so you started to colonize the United States, right?"
