I am the emperor in Nanyang, I am the ultimate winner

Qin Ruihua was standing in the conference room of the military factory, thinking about the future development direction in his mind.

"Minister Lu, now that our military factory has been established, what kind of aircraft do you think we should manufacture next?" Qin Ruihua asked.

After a moment of silence, Lu Hangxuan, the Minister of Military Industry, said: "Your Majesty... I think the Zero fighter might be a good choice."

"The Zero is indeed an excellent fighter, but its weapon system does not seem suitable for our use."

"In comparison, the Spitfire and the Zero are on par with each other," Qin Ruihua replied.

Minister of Military Industry Lu Hangxuan nodded: "Your Majesty is right. In addition to the Spitfire fighter, we also need other types of aircraft to enrich our air force."

"For example, the B-24 bomber, the TBD Destroyer torpedo bomber, etc."

"In addition, the scientific research department is developing a new type of attack aircraft that combines the advantages of a torpedo bomber and a dive bomber."

"Both the ground and sea attack capabilities are very strong, but the aerial combat capability is slightly inferior."

Qin Ruihua's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he agreed: "The addition of these aircraft will greatly enhance the strength of our air force."

"Then let's start producing Spitfires, B-24s, and TBD Devastator torpedo bombers."

"As for the new attack aircraft, ask the scientific research department to speed up the progress, complete the research and development as soon as possible and put it into production."

Minister of Military Industry Lu Hangxuan responded: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Qin Ruihua then said: "Minister Lu, the Spitfire fighter uses two 12.7mm machine guns and two 20mm cannons."

"If the caliber is too small, it may not be very effective against enemy bombers!"

Minister Lu nodded to show his understanding and asked, "Yes, Your Majesty, I understand. So how many aircraft do you need to produce?"

Qin Ruihua thought for a moment and replied, "Minister Lu, produce 24 Spitfire fighters, B- bombers, and torpedo bombers."

"These quantities should be sufficient to cope with current demand, but this is just a transitional phase."

Minister Lu continued to ask: "Yes, Your Majesty. What are your plans for the navy?"

Qin Ruihua described in detail: "Minister Lu, the Navy will produce a variety of warships including the Fantasy-class destroyers, Admiral Hipper-class heavy cruisers, Flower-class frigates, Yorktown-class aircraft carriers, and Deutschland-class battleships."

"Among them, two aircraft carriers and battleships will be produced each, three cruisers will be produced, twelve frigates will be produced, and eight destroyers will be produced."

"In addition, a certain number of torpedo boats, patrol boats and gunboats need to be produced to enhance the navy's strength."

Lu Hangxuan quickly responded: "Your Majesty, the warship models you requested are among the most advanced and powerful warships in the world and can meet the needs of the navy."

"But I still want to ask, why didn't you choose the Yamato battleship?"

Qin Ruihua smiled and replied: "Minister Lu, the Yamato battleship is a very powerful battleship."

"But it is too expensive and consumes too many resources, which puts too much pressure on the national finances."

"In comparison, my battleship plan is more economical and affordable, and can also meet the needs of the navy."

"So, let's give birth according to my plan."

Hearing Qin Ruihua say this, Lu Hangxuan quickly nodded to show that he understood and promised to follow the instructions.

Then, Qin Ruihua emphasized that the future strategic focus should be on aircraft carriers.

Because they will become the core force in future naval battles.

In addition, he also suggested producing some escort aircraft carriers to protect the safety of the main fleet.

However, achieving this goal takes time and cannot be rushed.

Later, Qin Ruihua mentioned the issue of army equipment.

He believes that the Type 2 and Type 4 tanks are currently the most suitable types of tanks for military use.

Therefore, he asked the military industry to produce sufficient quantities of these two tanks as soon as possible.

Specifically, he hopes that each newly formed division will be equipped with at least 50 tanks to enhance the combat effectiveness of the troops.

In this way, a powerful mechanized force can be gradually built up and overall military strength can be enhanced.

Finally, Qin Ruihua told Lu Hangxuan that he had other things to deal with, and then left the meeting room.

Lu Hangxuan respectfully saw Qin Ruihua off and said that he would do his best to complete the assigned task.

As Qin Ruihua left, people in the conference room began to get busy.

Not long after, Qin Ruihua returned to the palace. At this time, Finance Minister Zhou Muhan came here and was reporting: "Your Majesty."

"In recent times, we have obtained nearly 200 million silver coins by dealing with these families and ministers."

"Including the money from Windmill Country, it's already close to 300 million silver coins, and this doesn't even include gold, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jewelry, etc."

Three hundred million silver coins does sound like a lot, but it is not a lot for a country.

You have to know that the production of aircraft carriers and battleships costs tens of millions of silver coins.

It is not necessarily clear which country has the strongest military in the world today.

When it comes to economy, the United States is the first, with an annual production value of up to 700 billion US dollars.

Moreover, the ratio of this silver coin to the US dollar is two to one.

Equivalent to 140 billion silver coins.

It can even be said that the annual output value of this country is comparable to the annual output value of countries in most parts of the world.

After hearing the news, Qin Ruihua was not very surprised. After all, he also knew the current situation in his country.

Although some wealth has been gained, it is still far from enough for the development of a country.

So he asked: "Mu Han, what are your plans next?"

“How can we use this money to promote the development of the country?”

Zhou Muhan pondered for a moment and replied: "Your Majesty, I think we should first increase investment in agriculture and industry to improve domestic productivity."

"At the same time, we can consider building more infrastructure, such as railways and roads, to promote the development of domestic trade and logistics."

"In addition, we also need to increase investment in education and cultivate more outstanding talents to provide a solid guarantee for the country's future development."

"Of course, we cannot relax on the military front either. We need to continue to develop new weapons and equipment to improve the combat effectiveness of the army."

Qin Ruihua nodded, indicating that he agreed with Zhou Muhan's opinion. He said, "Okay, then do it according to your idea."

"I hope we can make our country strong as soon as possible and no longer be bullied by other countries." After saying that, he looked out the window, his heart full of anticipation.
