While the Germans were busy concentrating their efforts on preparing for a reckless wave in South Asia, China was also not idle. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info is comfortable to fight at your own doorstep! Iran's plan to increase troops continued, and although Xu Huaide suffered some losses in southern Iran, the rate of replenishment of Huaxia was much greater than the attrition. The strength of the Iranian garrison has increased rather than decreased. Although the scale of the bombing of the Baku oil field by the Huaxia Air Force was not as large as the one that began, the continuous bombing continued to bleed the Luftwaffe, and the crude oil production of the Baku oil field has been in a state of half-death.

Overall, however, the Army's actions were defensive, and the Air Force's strategic bombing of Baku was a limited offensive. Although the Huaxia Fleet, which has just returned from the Atlantic, has no major military operations, it is the first of the three armed forces to have the ability to have a strategic counterattack.

The addition of 6 aircraft carriers with the design number CVX-03 fundamentally changed the strength of the Huaxia Navy, in fact, when Su Mo went to the Atlantic with 2 aircraft carrier squadrons, in fact, there were already two supercarriers in the Huaxia Fleet, but Xu Jie did not allocate them to Su Mo. This strategic-level weapon requires accumulating a certain amount of weapons and then committing them to a decisive battle to wreak havoc on your opponents! The tactical benefits of premature exposure are not at all as obvious as the effects of a surprise attack. So Xu Jie has been waiting, waiting for the 6 new municipality-class aircraft carriers to become large-scale, and then make a move!

The first-class battleship named after Beijing, the capital of the Chinese Republic, is definitely the most formidable existence in this plane, and in terms of tonnage, the full load displacement of this class of battleship is close to 50,000 tons! The flight deck length is 310 meters! The maximum width is 58 meters! Equipped with an inclined flight deck with an inclination of 15 degrees. The hangar deployment adopts a single-storey large hangar layout, with the first half of the hangar being open and the second half of the closed hangar, with a hangar length of 210 meters. The maximum width is 25 meters! The battleship was equipped with a total of 4 side-chord lifts, two of which were specially designed to lift twin-engine attack aircraft.

In terms of defense, compared with the 30,000-ton armored aircraft carrier of the second stage of Huaxia, the thickness of the flight deck has been weakened. The strength of the lower horizontal deck has been enhanced. When the defense standard of the entire battleship is complete, it is fully immune to high-explosive shells. The damage caused by semi-armor-piercing shells is limited to a small range, and the core module can block the attack of 1 ton armor-piercing projectile within a certain range (i.e., defend against the enemy's attack in the range where the bomber drops the bomb at a small height or at a small angle). ）

To achieve this, the standard for the defense of the armored flight deck of the municipality-class aircraft carrier is 75mm armor steel. And the thickness of the horizontal armor of the lower power compartment and ammunition hidden is in between! Of course, such a strong defense of the lower horizontal armor was exchanged for the defensive area, and the defensive area of the second horizontal armor was significantly smaller than the flight deck coverage area. And in order to prevent the situation of being broken through, Huaxia has also strengthened the problem of warehouse separation, and there are a total of 12 boilers in the entire boiler room. It is designed as 3 trains with 6 cabins, and the 4 engines are also divided into 4 small cabins. (The rated output power of the power pack is 200,000 horsepower, and the actual output power is to be measured.) ）

In terms of mine protection, the side chord of the municipality-class aircraft carrier adopts the traditional 5-layer defense system and the layout of the side chord armor extending to the bottom of the ship, the thickness of the side chord armor is 6 inches at the waterline, and then it extends all the way down, and the thickness is gradually reduced, ranging from 5 inches to 3 inches. The underwater defense system with a depth of about 6 meters and a huge hull make this battleship highly resistant even in the face of Huaxia's own oxygen torpedoes. As for the question of the magnetically fused fish that specifically knock on the bottom of the boat? The only way that the Chinese designers could do was to deploy a certain thickness of armor at the bottom of the ship and the bottom of the ammunition depot with 3 layers of armor. At the same time, the induction coil is arranged externally to do a good job of degaussing to reduce the impact effect of the other party.

As an aircraft carrier, its attack power ultimately depends on the carrier-based aircraft force! It was a battleship that was even greater than the Caesar-class aviation of the Germans. Plus the great superiority of the Entente in aviation technology. As a first-class sea overlord built by China and ready to be the mainstay of World War II, the combat effectiveness of the new municipality-class aircraft carrier will far exceed that of other national aircraft carriers of the same era!

A municipality-class aircraft carrier is theoretically equipped with six aviation squadrons! Among them, two squadrons of Skua fighters. Each squadron has 24 fighters! One squadron of single-engine bombers, equipped with 24 new Chinese Sky Raider bombers! (The specific performance can be seen as a weakened version of AD1) 2 twin-engine bomber squadrons, equipped with Huaxia's new Ichthyosaur bomber (the size is between the Mosquito and the JU88. The maximum flight speed is 650 kilometers, using the new R2800 engine, and the maximum bomb load is close to 3 tons when fully fueled. Maximum take-off weight of 250,000 pounds! Close to the limit of the current new catapult in Huaxia. Each squadron has 20 twin-engine bombers. In addition to this, there is a joint squadron of electronic warfare and anti-submarine aircraft with 18 propeller aircraft. It is used to undertake early warning, anti-submarine patrol and electronic countermeasure tasks.

Although historically, the number of aircraft carried by Essex-class aircraft carriers has been more than 110 in actual combat, but some of the aircraft are stored in a loose piece. And the difference in attack power is even more incomparable! Historically, when the attack aircraft of the US imperialists used 1000-pound bombs and MK13 fish, the municipality-class aircraft carriers had already used 1.5T guided bombs! Throwing a torpedo is also an airplane that can throw 3 rounds at the same time! Just ask if you are afraid of such firepower density and intensity! Afraid or not!

And that's not all. In line with the leniency of the enemy, Xu Jie, who thought of the enemy as ferocious while hanging himself, even considered what if the Germans had an engine technology tree bursting. What should I do if I make an FW190E? What if the Germans rebelled a little more and ruined the character of the next few decades to create a jet carrier-based aircraft?

So when the Chinese Navy designed this aircraft carrier, it considered the plan to replace jet aircraft in the future, and really when the 310-meter runway and the maximum 280,000-pound catapult were prepared for propeller aircraft? These hardware facilities are enough for the 2nd generation jet aircraft in history! The research progress of Huaxia's jet aircraft has indeed reached the final stage, and it is expected to complete the test flight within 1 year and enter the mass production stage after 18 months!

The commissioning of 6 municipality-class aircraft carriers has raised the number of aircraft carriers of the first-line armored fleet in China to 12! 6 50,000-ton aircraft carriers plus 6 aircraft carriers of more than 30,000 tons, let's just say whether you are afraid or not! Although there is still a big gap between it and the Allied fleet led by the German High Seas Fleet in terms of quantity, it has completely crushed the Germans in terms of quality! If you really want to fight, you are not afraid of the Germans!

Don't say anything about the former FW190A of the Germans. Even the new long-nosed FW190D can't beat the Pirate 4 of the Huaxia weight loss version! The Germans' previous attack weapon, the HE110 twin-engine attack aircraft, is too low compared with the new Chinese Ichthyosaur attack aircraft! The two 1.5T guided bombs and advanced electronics and guidance systems of the Ichthyosaur crushed the HE110 in minutes. And the Ichthyosaur equipped with the R2800 engine is even more out of reach in terms of flight speed!

But at this point, it's not over. Xu Jie knew the disadvantage of the number of Huaxia aircraft carriers, and when the municipality-class aircraft carriers were being built overtime on the slipways of the four major shipyards in Huaxia. The smaller slipways weren't idle either! Even Japan, which is as strong as the United States in history and the most fishy of the great powers, has had a shortage of aircraft carriers, and hastily changed the hulls of a bunch of light cruisers into aircraft carriers! Even when nervous, even Iowa planned to be an aircraft carrier! Now the opponent has become a strengthened perverted version of Germany, Xu Jie naturally wants to ensure quantity on the basis of ensuring quality!

Along with the launch of the six municipality-class aircraft carriers, there are also six 17,000-ton lightly protected medium fleet aircraft carriers. This can basically be seen as a scaled-down version of the historical Yorktown-class aircraft carrier. A single-storey hangar, mainly for fighters and anti-submarine aircraft, is specially responsible for the fleet's air defense and anti-submarine chores, so that the 6 kings and 8 Donkey Kongs can concentrate on beating their opponents with all their might!

With the addition of 6 medium-sized fleet aircraft carriers, the number of first-line aircraft carriers of the Huaxia Navy has reached an astonishing 20! That's 20 aircraft carriers that a family has saved! Plus the Italian fleet in exile in China. For the first time, the Huaxia fleet surpassed its opponents at the same time in terms of quantity and quality, and it was almost equal in terms of quantity, and it was crushing in terms of quality! With these belongings in hand, the Huaxia Navy is not at all afraid to go head-on with the Allied fleet!

The navy has never been so strong, although during the treaty period, the tonnage of the Chinese navy was equal to that of the United States and Britain, and the quality was superior. But before the six new municipality-class aircraft carriers were commissioned, the Huaxia Navy had at most a tie with the German fleet, which had reached the end of the treaty period because of its earlier efforts. The size of the fleet is viciously inflated. Coupled with factors such as the first use of twin-engine attack aircraft, the Huaxia Navy may still be slightly weaker than its opponent at the beginning of World War 1. Not to mention the comparison with the Combined Fleet of the Central Powers!

But this time it's different! The German navy had been severely weakened after several naval battles. And Huaxia more than doubled the tonnage of aircraft carriers in one fell swoop! In terms of quantity, it is about the same as the entire Allied High Seas Fleet, and in terms of quality, it has reached the level of crushing! As long as God is not surnamed Germany, Xu Jie believes that in the absence of shore-based aviation, the Huaxia fleet can completely inflict heavy losses on the opponent in one battle! It's not possible to knock out half of it, but there's still a chance to sink and hurt a third!

The Huaxia Navy, which has obtained a large number of new toys, instantly doesn't know what to do! Su Mo, Ye Ming and other admirals are thinking about how to leave a memorable lesson for the Germans!

"If we can fight the next war well, the time of the war can be reduced by half a year or even a year! The Germans seemed to be at the height of their strength, but in fact they were at their weakest, and the American and British air forces said that in three months they would launch a strategic bombing of the German mainland and the occupied territories. The Luftwaffe was already showing signs of weakness in Baku, if Europe started fighting again. The Luftwaffe will lose more blood. The army is fighting far from the homeland, and the consumption will not be small. And the result of a long delay is that a certain former big country will turn against the water. As for the Navy? As long as the Germans dare to come, we will definitely let them remember it for a lifetime! "At a meeting. Su Mo swore that in general, the Huaxia military was very optimistic about the future situation.

"Don't think things are simple, be lenient with the enemy! It is unlikely that the German Navy will enter the Indian Ocean now. If I were the commander of the German Navy, I would definitely have to deal with Britain and the United States first! The Allied fleet has a huge advantage in the Atlantic, not only the support and fleet superiority of land-based aviation, but more importantly, the Germans threaten the British supply lines, as long as the Germans strangle to death, it would be good if Britain could make do with it, let alone counterattack! If I had made a plan, I would definitely have beaten the Americans again! Let the US fleet not be able to slow down within one year, and then cooperate with land-based aviation forces in the Middle East and South Asia to fight again in the Indian Ocean. ”

In terms of general strategy, Xu Jie and Count Spee have the same opinion. Although the Allied Allies' superiority in national power began to steadily develop, the Germans were still able to maintain the balance of power for a long time by relying on the advantage of fighting on the inside front. As long as the Germans are not greedy and do not act blindly, Xu Jie thinks that it is normal for this war to continue for another 3 to 4 years. The Germans are not stupid either, they are also replenishing the fleet, and judging by the rate of replenishment and attrition of the fleet, the German Navy is much stronger than the Anglo-Americans! This is not Xu Jie's blind guess, but a conclusion reached after synthesizing a large amount of information and intelligence!

The production capacity of the Americans is really strong, there is no doubt about this, the speed of an Essex-class aircraft carrier in less than 20 months can be called the first in the world, but the problem is that times have changed! Historically, Essex faced the Japanese Navy, which had a more powerful aviation table, and the problem of lightly protected Essex was not very big. In the end, the Americans crushed their opponents with absolute numerical superiority and absolute aviation superiority. This is not to say that Essex is so good, even if the Americans kill their opponents with Yorktown, it cannot be said that Essex is bad, but to simply say that the hull design can only be regarded as average.

But this plane is different, and the attack power of the carrier-based aircraft forces of the German Navy has even exceeded the theoretical upper limit of the defense of battleships! Huaxia's new aircraft carrier is also difficult to ensure that the enemy is kept out of the core module, at most it can block most of the attacks, while limiting the range of damage. What is even more terrifying is that although the national strength of Germany in this plane is not as good as that of the US imperialists, the scale of the main ships of the navy is comparable. The Essex-class aircraft carrier, which the Americans built in 18 months, may be sunk within a few months of launching. Even the bottom of the boat is saved!

No matter how fast the Americans make it, it is impossible to catch up with the speed of the Germans. So the Americans fell into a dilemma, in order to ensure that the number of fleets was sufficient, they had to continue to build this kind of half-height and not low-level ships, and to build this kind of battleship, the inability to get on the twin-engine aircraft led to a lack of attack power, so the result of the battle was that the German ship was blown up but not killed. Essex has a high loss rate and is stuck in a vicious circle.
