I am the emperor in Nanyang, I am the ultimate winner
Chapter 34: The transaction is completed on the eve of the military parade
At this time, the military parade of Yan State was not far away. As time passed, the atmosphere in the entire Yan State became more and more heated.
All the major countries invited by Yan State also received invitation letters.
Countries such as Jili, America, Prussia, France, North Bear, Dongyang, Australia, Italy, and Dazhou.
Basically, they are among the most powerful countries in the world today.
Yan Country has already issued an invitation, but whether other countries are willing to participate is their own decision.
After all, Yan State has fulfilled its invitation responsibility, and now it depends on the attitudes of other countries.
Except for Prussia, other countries did not pay much attention to Yan Country's invitation.
The state of Dazhou was in the midst of a civil war, but despite this, some warlords sent representatives to participate.
Prussia will send an admiral to attend the military parade and discuss matters related to the Yamato battleship with Yan State.
The main highlights of the parade include a battleship.
This battleship was called a small battleship and was equipped with nine 280mm main guns.
Furthermore, the aircraft carrier has not yet been built, and even if it is built it will not be used in the parade.
In addition, weapons and equipment such as cruisers, destroyers, frigates and fighter jets will also be on display.
Today, the Yan State’s active warships include a Xuefeng battleship.
A Zhuying cruiser, a Songtao cruiser, a Yanqing cruiser, and a Qingshi cruiser.
One Yunmeng destroyer, one Jingou destroyer, one Zixia destroyer, and one Cuilan destroyer.
and five Zhengnan-class frigates (No. 1 to 5).
The names of these warships are all taken from the cities of Yan State and are full of rich cultural flavor.
In this way, the number of main battleships owned by Yan State reached fourteen.
Although this number is relatively small, their fighting power cannot be underestimated and is enough to rank among the top ten in the world.
Once all the warships under construction are launched, including two aircraft carriers and a battleship.
Then the naval strength of Yan Country will be greatly enhanced, and it may be able to enter the top five in the world's naval rankings in one fell swoop.
You know, the naval strength of the Northern Bear Kingdom and Prussia is not strong, and the Great State Kingdom is not worth mentioning.
As for the United States, its navy ranks among the top three.
On the whole, Yan State's naval development prospects are quite promising.
It is already March and the rewards for the first two months have been collected.
There is not much difference from before, they are all industrial equipment, etc., I won’t introduce them one by one.
Prussian Admiral Thomas Becker came to the Yan Kingdom's palace for the first time.
The Yan Kingdom’s palace is still far inferior to their Beixiong Kingdom’s palace.
However, Qin Ruihua also had the idea of rebuilding a palace.
In addition, if the existing imperial palace undergoes large-scale renovation.
It may destroy its profound cultural heritage and historical value.
Therefore, he decided to take a different approach and rebuild a modern and efficient palace.
After Admiral Thomas Becker entered the palace, he saluted Qin Ruihua who was sitting on the dragon throne.
Qin Ruihua smiled and asked him to sit down and asked the purpose of his visit.
Admiral Thomas Becker stated bluntly that their leader had made the decision to purchase two Yamato battleships from Yan Country.
Qin Ruihua nodded with satisfaction and praised Admiral Thomas Becker for his straightforwardness.
"The two battleships cost a total of $320 million, plus the two cruisers, a total of $430 million. As for the 2,000 machine guns, I will give them to you."
Admiral Thomas Becker responded: "Thank you, Your Majesty Yanwu."
After all, every penny saved is a penny earned. Although two thousand machine guns are less than a fraction of the price of these warships, every penny counts!
Qin Ruihua smiled and then asked, "What does your country plan to trade with?"
"Your Majesty Yanwu, we trade with your country using resources such as gold, precious metals, and oil."
"Admiral, very good. With these two battleships, Prussia will be able to defeat many naval powers."
Admiral Thomas Becker answered confidently: "Yes, Your Majesty Yanwu, as long as we have these two battleships, our naval strength will be greatly enhanced. I believe that in the future our country will become the second largest naval power in Europe."
"Your Majesty Yanwu, when will your country be ready to deliver the battleship?"
"It doesn't take long to build a cruiser, only about a year, but a battleship is very time-consuming, and such a powerful battleship is expected to take three years to deliver, and four years at the latest."
Admiral Thomas Becker was very pleased with the time, which he thought was quite fast.
In fact, it may take some countries several years or even decades to build a battleship.
The reason why Qin Ruihua was able to complete the construction and delivery so quickly was mainly because he hoped that countries would start building various large-caliber battleships as soon as possible.
If we wait until ten years before delivery, aircraft carriers will probably have become mainstream by then, and the status of battleships will be seriously challenged.
Therefore, Qin Ruihua chose to deliver the battleships ahead of schedule to encourage countries to invest in the construction of large-caliber battleships as soon as possible.
Admiral Thomas Becker then asked: "So, will your country display this Yamato battleship at this parade?"
Qin Ruihua replied: "Although our country will display battleships, there is still a certain gap compared with the Yamato."
"Due to financial constraints, we can only build this type of warship as a stopgap measure."
In fact, Yan State does not lack steel resources.
In the early days of the nation, the system gave a large amount of steel rewards, enough to meet long-term usage needs.
Admiral Thomas Becker said: "I look forward to your country's wonderful performance in this military parade."
Qin Ruihua responded confidently: "Don't worry, I will never let you down."
Finally, the two sides shook hands and said goodbye, wishing each other a pleasant cooperation.
