Chapter 16 The South China Sea (2)
Seeing that inappropriate "aircraft carrier" go from a long way, all the personnel of the "Adams"-class missile destroyer were all in petrochemical state, and they were speechless for a long time. Hua Jun actually created an aircraft carrier quietly!? It's incredible, it's really unbelievable, it's really... It's just a miracle! The biggest miracle is that the hull of this aircraft carrier was actually made by the Philadelphia Shipyard in Citigroup! Damn, Washington is shooting itself in the foot again! Of course, Washington's feet are sacred and inviolable, and they cannot be smashed. Therefore, every time Washington lifts stones, their army has to hold their heads on their heads. Don't really let the stones hit the feet of those big men in the White House, otherwise it will be a death!
Colonel Berg was angry. A group of earth-based buns, and there was such an aircraft carrier that I didn't know if it could be used. When our navy's aircraft carrier battle group slaughtered Japanese monkeys in the Pacific Ocean, you didn't know which Shankla was fighting guerrilla! He actually dared to show off such a look of the great United States Navy as the big boss, my second brother, it's really a five-element fight! He could even be sure that if he really fought, his own missile destroyer alone would be enough to send that aircraft carrier into the sea to make a hotel for fish! And the "Glory" cruiser that was not pleasant to see, what the hell are you? Isn't it just that the Philadelphia shipyard was built and gave up after being 80% of it, and throw it in the shipyard like garbage and let the sun and rain be shabby? Do you really think it's a treasure? There is also the "Glory", this battle
The ship had participated in the Korean War, but it performed poorly. After being beaten by a torpedo of the North Korean People's Army, it was blown up a large hole that could drive into an off-road jeep, and almost sank to the bottom like a stone. This ominous warship was retired twelve years ago, but it could not be sold. It was sealed in a Philadelphia shipyard and let it fend for itself. This grandfather-class warship was sold to the Chinese Navy seven years ago, so seven years later, the old man was completely renewed and ran to the Citi Navy to show off his power! Even though he was angry, the colonel still had to admit that such a rejuvenated child-style fleet could still dominate Asia. Putting aside the quality issue, the quantity alone was enough for any Asian country to drink a pot. And all this was thanks to the Citi Kingdom! What's going on? It has to start seven years ago.
Seven years ago, when the president visited China, he discussed the current international situation in depth with the top leaders of China. Both the president and the president of China unanimously agreed that the huge red beast had become the biggest threat to world peace. As a superpower, both Citi and the Soviet Union had nuclear arsenals that could destroy the earth more than a dozen times. Citi had the ability to destroy the world, but the Soviet Union had the madness of destroying the world! The eternal president drew a line on the world map with his fingertips and said: "Unite the countries in this area to unite him!" The world pattern thus underwent earth-shaking drastic changes. Faced with the terrible threat of the polar bear, the Eastern dragon and the two-headed eagle finally put aside all the new and old hatreds in the past and united under the banner of the gentleman's revenge for ten years. And that person who has no
In terms of personality and ability, the Prime Minister, who was still looking down for a few decades later, directly revealed the difficulties of the Republic: let alone economics, take the army as an example. All technical branches of the Republic's People's Liberation Army have fallen far behind the international level. Once a war breaks out, it will be difficult to effectively resist the fierce offensive of the Soviet army, hoping to get help from the United States. These are the truth, and the President agreed immediately. In the following years, the United States carried out a republic.
With effective military technical assistance, of course, the technology provided to the Republic is about ten years behind internationally. The Republic does not care at all. It is eager to learn these already backward technologies, absorb nutrients from them, and nurture the most beautiful flowers. The most famous one is the "Pearl of Peace" project. The core content of the plan is that Citigroup helps Shenyang Aircraft improve the design of the J-8 high-altitude high-speed fighter. At the beginning, Citigroup experts really put on a teacher's posture and carefully improve it.
The works produced by those unqualified students were very serious and everyone cooperated happily. But five years later, Citi experts found out that they had been fooled. Shen Fei had no intention of using the J-8 as their flagship product. They really spared no effort to develop a real third-generation aircraft: a generation of genius J-12! The reason why they invested so much manpower and material resources to participate in the "Pearl of Peace" project was to use this plan to contact the most advanced fighter aircraft design concepts and Citi.
The country's most advanced electronic instruments lay the foundation for the J-12! Damn it, it was cheated again! The experts who shouted that they were deceived angrily suggested that the government unilaterally terminate the contract, and the suckers could no longer be dissuaded. Washington also found that it had been deceived and tore off the contract, and the "Pearl of Peace" was overshadowed. However, on the same day that the experts of Citigroup withdraw, the first J-12 verification aircraft had stabbed the blue sky like a peerless magic weapon, which was regarded as seeing off the big noses who had helped him at the most difficult moment.
Navy cooperation is the highlight. In 1973, the Admiral of the Chinese Navy brought the Vice President of Citi to inspect the Chinese Navy. As a result, the Vice President shook his head. After learning that this was the most gorgeous lineup of the Chinese Navy, the Vice President shook his head even more violently. Just a few small tonnage destroyers, frigates, frigates, gunboats and several submarines, they had to defend the boundaries of thousands of miles of seas. The difficulty can be imagined. The Admiral of the Chinese Navy proposed to buy a batch of retired warships from Citi to enrich the strength of the navy. At that time, the Citi National Command, which had already consumed half of its life in the Annan War.
Faced with the aggressive advance of the Soviet Union, the anger was almost overwhelmed. Considering that a relatively powerful Chinese navy could effectively restrain the Soviet power, Washington hesitated and agreed, and took out a large number of old warships sealed in the Philadelphia shipyard for the Chinese generals to take on the initiative - all of which were less than 25,000 tons, and could not make any big waves. It is said that the Philadelphia shipyard was quite dissatisfied with this. There was no way, they had too many old ships back up. How many? At the end of World War II, they all had more than 20,000 tons of warships under construction!
Some warships seem to be very successful, and how to deal with them has become a big problem: for various reasons, they cannot be sold, so demolish them. Even if tens of thousands of tons of excellent steel are wasted, they can only be sealed to see their future luck. However, the maintenance cost of sealing so many ships is also amazing, and they occupy a large number of ship positions. No matter how rich they are, they cannot bear it. Over the years, the Philadelphia Shipyard has tried all its strength to deal with these scrapped retired ships that have not been built, and even actively lobbying Congress to allow them to sell these old ships that occupy the pits and do not shit, which is enough to save some cost. However, their efforts seem to have no effect and are in vain. Finally, a sucker came to the door and was not allowed to sell this or that, what's the matter!
Citigroup has always been decided by capitalists, and this time is no exception. At that time, just after a big battle, the economic situation of Citigroup was very bad. The US dollar soared, leading to rising prices, and the Philadelphia shipyards also suffered great trouble. The rising production costs led to the ship's ex-factory price soaring. The consequence of the soaring ex-factory price was that customers fled, the products were backlogged, occupying more resources, and further pushing out the ex-factory price - you have to get the capital back, right? This became a vicious cycle, and the consequences were unpredictable. If you want to get out of this dead end, the best way is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.
, open source now, don't think about it, the most important thing is to scatter the money - the key is to sell the backlog of things in your hands. The Philadelphia Shipyard seized this good opportunity and sold many sealed warships to China at the price of scrap iron. The most amazing thing is to sell a failed medium-sized aircraft carrier after removing the electronic equipment and weapon systems - that is a 50,000-ton aircraft carrier! The Chinese army said that it would change it into a transport ship. Because the aircraft carrier had serious flaws, the navy looked down on it at all, and in addition, there was only one empty shell left, the Chinese army again
No matter how you play, you can't play any new tricks. Washington turned a blind eye to this transaction that could provide the government with a lot of tax revenue and let them go. Later, I learned that the Chinese army was really trying to convert this failed aircraft carrier into an aircraft carrier platform, at least it could compete with the Indra Navy's aircraft carrier and made some progress. Admiral Citi laughed at it after learning the news. In his opinion, the Chinese experts are commendable, but this road cannot be done. If it can be used after modification, the Citi Navy would not give up on it, let alone sell it.
Fall out. The bureaucrats and men in Washington thought they were in control, but they forgot that they were dealing with a country that could create miracles the most! Now Colonel Berg really wants to take the idiots who strongly supported the Peace Ark and the Peace Pearl to the warships, so that they can open their eyes to the USS Glory aircraft carrier that was converted to murderous intent, as well as the USS Glory and USS Glory cruisers armed to their teeth! Yes, Citi Navy certainly would not take such a weak fleet seriously, but you know, "Glory"
Does the appearance of the USS? This means that China has begun to join the aircraft carrier club! It can be imagined that maybe five years or ten years, in the near future, the aircraft carriers built by China will gallop on the vast sea, and the Pacific Ocean will no longer be the inner lake of Citigroup! It is not difficult to imagine that with the emergence of this fleet, the always calm South China Sea will collapse! I am afraid that the good days of the Seventh Fleet will come to an end!?
Thinking of this, the colonel who was so angry that he yelled: "The idiots in Washington are starting to cultivate enemies for themselves again!"
Amid the colonel's roar, the South China Sea Fleet moved forward, and the wake of the "Glory" rushed straight several meters high, several kilometers long, looking like a newly released sword, flashing with cold light, waiting for the sword-casting master to sharpen the blade for it, and drink blood!
