After the inquiry was completed, he returned to Yin'an Hall from the Investigation Institute. General Bei Shou of the General Staff was in the same position as General, the state-owned shipyard and the Naval Design Bureau were already waiting. In addition, Zhu Zhiyao, who sought new shipyard in Shanghai, was also present. This time, he wanted to transfer to warship construction as early as the European War. After the war, he bought a lot of equipment at a low price and was looking for opportunities. This time, the Navy wanted to build 18 cruisers. In order to complete these heavy patrols before the United Kingdom and the United States spoke out for the second naval disarmament meeting, the most powerful private shipyards were also included in the system.

"Everyone, sit down." Yang Rui said politely, "The Institute of Judicial will approve the treaty of the six countries and the five countries, so we don't have to build the battleship."

Yang Rui said this, everyone laughed. The Scripture Academy was basically completed by the Revival Association. As long as it was not an excessive treaty or bill, they had no reason not to sign it. Moreover, Yang Rui's prestige and character are respected by everyone. If he came forward, he would not be able to accomplish anything. Bei Shou said: "Sir, the construction of the shipyard was initially set for Zheng He in Nanjing, and there was still new things in Jiangnan in Shanghai..." Hearing that Bei Shoutong mentioned himself, Zhu Zhiyao hurriedly stood up and bowed, "...Seeking new three shipyards in Shanghai. The two cruisers built before will be launched this month, and the keels of the aircraft carrier laid in Nanjing will be demolished to leave the dock..."

The Naval Design Bureau has previously proposed two design plans, with a standard displacement of less than 10,000 tons, a four-axis and a 100,000 horsepower, a maximum flight between 34 and 35 knots, a 75mm armor on the side and a turret of 25mm. In addition to the six 50-dia 2om main guns provided by Japan, there are twelve 12m anti-aircraft guns, twenty-four 25mm anti-aircraft guns and eight torpedo tubes; Plan B adds two main guns, and four 12m anti-aircraft guns have been cut, but eight double-mounted 127mm anti-aircraft machine guns have been added, and the others have basically not changed.

According to Yang Rui's calculations, each of the eighteen heavy cruisers is equipped with three aircraft carriers, and each of the forty-eight destroyers is equipped with six aircraft carriers. The remaining twelve ships perform other tasks. Therefore, whether the heavy cruiser carries water reconnaissance aircraft is not that important. The heavy cruiser defined in this way is that it is strong air defense firepower, so there is such a intensive anti-aircraft artillery design.

"This time Britain and France did not restrict cruisers. Destroyers were quarreling with the tonnage of British and French submarines, but as soon as our heavy cruisers came out, I believe that Britain would soon say that we would be disarmament again." Yang Rui nodded in response to Bei Shoutong's report. Zhu Lu and the General Secretary had always been in charge of the matter after Zhu Lu and his suicide. "Even if this heavy cruiser only had six 2om main guns, it could sweep the former battleships like a dreadnought, making most of the British Royal Navy cruisers immediately obsolete. So our question is how to build all eighteen heavy cruisers before the British proposed a meeting;

The same is true for destroyers, but in addition to air defense, the destroyer mission also focuses on submersible defense. It is not too important whether the main gun must be 15m. As long as some of the destroyers' main guns reach 15m."

Yang Rui emphasized the time, and Bei Shoutong heard this and said, "Sir, we now have a total of six thousand-ton docks. Judging from the construction period of one and a half to two years, minus the two that are about to be completed, and the remaining sixteen ships can be completed in sixteen years. However, considering the design improvement, personnel allocation, and the attitude of AIA, especially Britain and the United States, such a large-scale shipbuilding may not be appropriate. Can it be extended to eight years?"

"No, I would rather be like an aircraft carrier, and the ship is waiting for people than wait for the ship. If we come to another Washington meeting and say that heavy patrols and destroyers are restricted, what should we do? But if we build them in advance, it is impossible to dismantle them all. Instead of dismantling them, it is better to let Britain and the United States spend more money to build heavy patrols. Heavy patrols and aircraft carriers are necessary for us and must not be reduced." Yang Rui emphasized, "The problem of improvement..., the previous choice of A was because the design was relatively redundant. It would be easier to modify in the future. I will make arbitrary decisions. I must build the remaining sixteen heavy patrols within six years!"

Yang Rui insisted on building it as soon as possible, and Bei Shoutong, the shipyard, and the Naval Design Bureau had nodded.

"I understand, sir." Bei Shoutong knew that he could only optimize the plan. But when it was implemented, it was decided by Yang Rui, who had a very accurate judgment of the international situation. Now Yang Rui said he would build it quickly, and he had no objection.

"And you must keep it confidential." Yang Rui said again, "I have surrounded the docks, and I said that I am building oil tankers. We have dug so much oil in the northwest. Of course, we have to transport the oil out and sell it. There are also the first and second batches of heavy patrols. Don't show your face. If you hide it, you can drive to Japan. Anyway, there are many islands there."

"I understand, sir." Bei Shou smiled and immediately took out a specific report with the name of the re-scheduling, cost and construction plan.

Naming warships is a relatively troublesome thing, mainly for good luck. This time, in order to name these eighteen ships, the Navy Office has produced two sets of names: one is the head of the head, which is the heroic, the martial arts, the heroic, the heroic, the heroic, and the heroic power; the other group is interesting, and it is the addition of the eight Yuans of the Qing Dynasty. In addition to the "Dingyuan, Zhenyuan, Zhiyuan...", these eight Yuans, there are also "Hongyuan, Zhuyuan, Duyuan, Junyuan, Chengyuan, Muyuan, Chunyuan, Xiongyuan, Mingyuan, Tengyuan" ten Yuans.

Yang Rui looked at Bei Shoutong and Xie Gangzhe from the Navy Office and smiled and said, "Which group do you think you should choose?"

Yang Rui didn't have much affection for the Beiyang Navy, and because of this, he could never let the Min team monopolize the navy. Since discussing the combat effectiveness of the army with Yang Zengxin the previous year, he has been thinking about the reason why the combat effectiveness of the Han people was reduced. Yang Zengxin said that it was because the imperial power was too heavy, which sounded reasonable, but Yang Rui seemed that the people were educated too heavily.

The beard outside the pass is not educated, so it has combat effectiveness; today, Sheng County, known as the general county, has been saying "Sheng County robbers" since ancient times, so it has combat effectiveness; think about Hong Xiuquan's Guangdong soldiers, Zeng Guofan's Hunan soldiers, Qi Jiguang's Zhejiang soldiers, Qin Liangyu's Baigang soldiers, and even the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, Mongolian cavalry, and the Eight Banners, Mongolian cavalry, and the Eight Banners. The decline in combat effectiveness after Mongolia entered the pass, only reveals one truth: barbarism is combat effectiveness, and education is soft-crusted eggs.

The weakening of this combat power is not a weapon, a lack of tactics, nor a lack of firepower, but a lack of combat will. The German 6th Army wants to choose an officer to have a strong attack. The question Merkel designed the test is to appoint those students who directly answered: "encircle and destroy them" as the commanders of the troops; as for those who are looking forward to the front and back, since he dares not attack, he is likely to dare not defend because he cannot know how many people the enemy is attacking on the battlefield. This is the best explanation of the Russian commander of the Russian army during the Russo-Japanese War.

Most of the leaders of the Beiyang Navy were studying since childhood and had a lot of knowledge. They went to Mawei Academy not to go to war, but to become officials; not only did they not fight, but to go through daily training, and everything was just to deal with. In terms of the quality of officers and soldiers and the material of people, they had already lost before the Sino-Japanese War; as for other artillery shells and funds, they were nothing more than a syndrome of a society that was educated to rotten.

Now that the Navy Office is willing to rename the previous "Badayuan", Yang Rui is very worried that the pre-Qing Navy's atmosphere will follow one after another, especially now that the pre-Qing Navy has penetrated into the General Logistics Department and civil servants from the Revival Society.

"Sir, all countries have the tradition of naming new ships after their previous ships. Since this time it is a heavy cruiser, it is not wrong to name it after "far." said fellow Bei Shou.

After Bei Shoutong said that, Yang Rui played with the pencil in his hand and circled it several times before saying, "Okay, then name it after 'yuan'." Yang Rui's nod made Bei Shoutong, Xie Gangzhe, Wei Han, the CEO of the Shanghai Jiangnan Factory, Chen Zaofan, the General Office of the Nanjing Factory, and Wang Pingxuan of the Navy Design Bureau, Ye Zaifu breathed a sigh of relief. Except for Bei Shoutong, these people are more or less related to the Min Navy. Now Yang Rui agrees to name it after 'yuan', so naturally he no longer hates the performance of the Beiyang Navy. But after these people breathed a sigh of relief, Yang Rui said, "But the three names of Jiyuan, Dingyuan, and Zhenyuan must be excluded."

Jiyuan was the leader of Fang Boqian. This person was supposed to be a deserter. Although his family was actively overturning the case after the founding of the new dynasty, he did not provide favorable evidence yet. The second ship of Dingzhen was the last battle. Bei Shou and others couldn't figure out why they wanted to abandon the name of Dingzhen two ships. He had to ask: "Sir, Jiyuan won't say it, but why Dingyuan and Zhenyuan..."

"You are familiar with Beiyang, do you know that there is morphine in the Beiyang fleet?" Yang Rui asked. He used to argue with people online, and he was angry and said that he committed suicide by swallowing raw duck tablets, which means that Liu Buchan and others would suck duck tablets. The other party's answer was that there was no morphine in Beiyang at that time, so they needed to use duck tablets to relieve pain. Ding Ruchang, Liu Buchan and Lin Tai had obtained duck tablets from medical officials, which did not mean that he could suck it himself.

Yang Rui asked such a strange question. Bei Shoutong obviously couldn't answer. Xie Gangzhe from the Navy Office said: "Return to the Prime Minister: The Beiyang Navy had morphine at that time [Note 119]."

"Really, can you be sure?" Yang Rui asked again. The boring quarrels in the past finally had an answer today. It seems that time travel is also beneficial, but unfortunately he can never go back to the past.

"Yes. Prime Minister." Xie Gangzhe faintly realized what Yang Rui meant.

Sure enough, Yang Rui asked with a smile: "Since there is morphine, why can Liu Buchan and Lin Tai get pilos?"

Yang Rui's question made Yin'an Palace calm down, and no one dared to answer this question. The Fuxing Army could not help but prostitution, but it was banned from drugs and gambling. Although Liu Buchan and Lin Tai had been able to commit suicide by suicide with morphine only means that someone was sucking croaker, but it cannot be said that the people who sucked were Liu Buchan and Lin Taizeng. What if they seized other officers and kept them in the cabinet? What if they were loyal and filial to the sailors? What if the black-hearted businessmen on the shore wanted to commit suicide when they saw the adults and gave them kindly? Besides, the "My Qing Dynasty" has its own national conditions, who wouldn't suck pineapple?

No one dared to answer Yang Rui's question, let alone counter the implicit presumption of this question. After a while, Bei Shou said, "Sir, if we don't name the three ships Dingyuan, Zhenyuan and Jiyuan, we may be unfair to the other officers and soldiers who fought to the death on the ship at that time."

Bei Shoutong's reminder made Yang Rui feel a little reasonable. If you don't have opium or opium, just put it aside. He nodded and said, "Then change it. Zhiyuan should not be called Zhiyuan, change it to Deng Shichang; Jingyuan should not be called Jingyuan, change it to Lin Yongsheng; there are also brave Huang Jianxun and powerful Lin Luzhong, and these two people are also..." He suddenly said here, "It seems that many people died in battle and died for the throne."

"Yes, sir." Bei Shoutong lowered his head. He lowered his head, while the CEO of the Shanghai Jiangnan Factory behind him, Wei Han, a Fujian native, was in tears. The new dynasty hates the Qing Dynasty. Yang Rui was not polite to the Min family before, but now he suddenly spoke to him warmly, and he couldn't help but shed tears.

"That's it." Yang Rui said, and he asked again: "How much does it cost? How do the three shipyards allocate?"

"The quotations of the three companies vary, but they are roughly around 11 million Chinese Yuan." Beishou said. "The three companies each have two 10,000-ton docks, so the plan is to have six ships in Shanghai and six ships in Nanjing, and seek new four ships."

"Who is the cheapest?" Yang Rui suddenly asked. The airline is so fast, and the boiler is two-thirds of the aircraft carrier. This cost is not expensive, but he does not know the specific quotations of the three companies.

"Yes..." Bei Shoutong opened the notepad and said, "The cheapest factory is for new products, which is 1,0340,000 yuan. But we are worried that we have not built a warship before we seek new products, so..."

When Bei Shoutong said this, Yang Rui looked at Zhu Zhiyao and asked with a smile: "Mr. Zhu, why is your offer cheaper?"

Yang Rui and Bei Shoutong didn't ask, and Zhu Zhiyao didn't dare to speak, although he was very anxious because he was questioned about the quality of new shipbuilding. Now Yang Rui asked, he immediately said: "Return to Prime Minister: New factory has another agricultural machinery factory, and there are not as many large equipment as state-owned factories, so the fixed cost is less amortized, and the labor force is relatively low, so the quotation is slightly cheaper. Qiu Xin passed the royal quality system certification last year, and the certificate number is No. 33, so you can feel at ease when the quality is interrupted."

"Then you can build it first." Yang Rui smiled. This man was called Zhu Xiaopian because of his short braid. At the same time, he was a Catholic and extremely pious. Although Buddhism advocated it in China at this time, the fingers were more directed at Christianity rather than Catholicism. "If the quality is qualified and the construction period is qualified, then six ships will be built for innovation."

Yang Rui's words made Zhu Zhiyao very happy. As a private shipyard, it is rare to seek new things today, especially to build heavy cruisers for the navy, which is an extremely rare opportunity.

After making some inquiries and instructions, the General Office of the Shipyard, the Naval Design Bureau and others went out, but only Bei Shoutong stayed. Yang Rui asked: "If this Washington Conference did not give in, we would be hostile to Britain, the United States and others or even go to war, what would be the biggest military difficulty?"

"Sir, from military supplies, our biggest difficulty is the lack of nickel, chromium and other metals; from a defensive perspective, **, Yunnan, and coastal provinces are easily invaded by the British and American navies."

Nickel is a strategic material, and I had a headache during the war against Japan. Yang Rui patted his head and said, "Is that true?"

"Yes, sir. The nickel in the world is basically derived from the Adbury open-pit nickel mine in Canada, and there is a nickel mine on the French colony of Xinkoridonia in the South Pacific. Because it is difficult to build smelting plants in the local area, the local nickel mine is transported from France to local smelting." Beishou, together with Beishou, "my country only has this mine in Huili, Yunnan, but the railway is not accessible, so it is difficult to build a factory. The Ministry of Industry had planned to set up a factory in Nanjing or Wuhan before, but the raw materials could only be used for help from France, which is too risky.

The chromium ore has not been detected for the time being; the molybdenum ore is in Yangjiazhai, Jinxi, Liaoning, and the factory is now being built; the manganese ore is in Leping, Jiangxi, Zunyi, Guizhou, Zunyi, Zunyi, has large reserves and has mining value, but it is also limited to railways, which can only be mined after the railway is built; vanadium and titanium are mainly in Panzhihua, and they have to wait for the railway to be repaired before they can be mined and smelted; copper ore was originally short of, but now there is Beiting Copper Mine. Although it is jointly established by China and Japan, at least there will be no shortage of copper in the future."

"You can discuss the issue of nickel with Mr. Huafeng. There will be no major changes in diplomacy. See if you can import nickel ore from France and where to smel in Wuhan; the others will be waiting for exploration." Yang Rui said. After saying that, he sighed. According to the impression of later generations, China has a lack of war metals, and I don't know if it can make up for its shortcomings in Kazakhstan like copper. (To be continued.)
