Travel through the 1945 super power construction secret base

For Harald, allowing the Soviet Union to build a military port in his own country was directly equivalent to joining the Soviet camp.

He could never accept this kind of behavior of taking sides.

Not to mention the future Soviet Union's efforts to influence Indian politics through stationing troops in military ports.

Harald felt that this kind of thing was bound to happen.

At this moment, he had already given up hope of recovering the two islands.

I comforted myself by thinking that the two archipelagos are not officially part of Indian territory now, so even if they were lost, it would not be considered India's loss.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel better.

The Soviet ambassador looked at Harald and said with a smile: "Prime Minister, you can think about it. We are ready to give you the greatest support at any time."

After Harald left, the Soviet ambassador looked at the information provided by India, which contained the battle reports sent back by the destroyers and aircraft carriers before their surrender.

The Soviet ambassador was shocked by the powerful combat capability of the Xincheng battleship.

Then he sent the battle report back to the country.

Just when Harald was thinking that he could delay it for one day longer since Xincheng couldn't be conquered anyway.

He received bad news: the Karwar naval base was bombarded by the battleship Neustadt.

The only remaining destroyer of the navy was damaged, a large number of warehouses in the naval port were destroyed, and the personnel losses were huge.

Harald's hands began to tremble. The attack had reached their homeland, and now the naval base was under attack. It would be fatal if major coastal cities such as Mumbai were attacked.

His political reputation will be greatly damaged.

After thinking about it, he directly called Foreign Minister Lati and asked him to lead the team to the new city in person.

"We can admit that the navy was defeated, but the result must not be India's surrender. We will also give up the two islands. We will negotiate with them about the warships and buy them back."

Harald's mind was extremely clear at this moment. He gave up on everything that was impossible. He had to end this war that was impossible to win. The powerful Indian Army did not border the new city, and with only the navy, they could not win. There was no need to continue dragging it out and let the coastal cities of the country be destroyed.

"I understand, Prime Minister." Lati nodded and accepted the task.

On the same day, the Foreign Minister's request for a visit was conveyed to Xincheng. Without waiting for Xincheng's reply, Lati directly boarded a specially dispatched passenger ship and led a team to Xincheng.

On the other side, Xincheng received this visit, and Wang Ze smiled sarcastically, India, you won’t listen unless you beat you.

I don’t know whether after this failure they will try to encroach on the mainland’s territory again.

However, based on his understanding of India, it is estimated that they will still do as they did in history and will not behave themselves until they are beaten to a bloody pulp.

What Wang Ze is more annoyed about now is what the navy and his elder brother reported, that the mainland side requested to purchase battleships from Xincheng.

He could accept mainland warships, but not super-light steel battleships.

This thing is not like a light steel aircraft. Even if the Soviet aircraft is durable, it can still be penetrated if hit directly by a large-caliber armor-piercing projectile. However, the thickness of the composite armor of the battleship is something that cannot be solved in this era. Even Xincheng can't resist it unless Wang Ze takes direct action. However, the attack range of the battleship is difficult for Wang Ze to destroy it even if he takes action personally.

Except for Xincheng, he would never allow any other force to possess such a huge and excessive product. The threat was too great.

After thinking for a while, I decided to modify the captured aircraft carriers and destroyers and sell them to the mainland.

Both of these ships are from World War II, and many of their technologies are relatively backward. This light aircraft carrier is even worse. According to the original history, after India took over this aircraft carrier, it would have asked Britain for help in modernization and modification, but now it has been directly captured, and Xincheng has to do the modification himself.

However, with the current technology of Xincheng, the modified products are definitely not worse than those in the UK.

As for the battleship that Xincheng wanted, Wang Ze decided to get them one made of special steel.

By squeezing some internal space, the defense capability would not be too bad. However, if it is hit by a torpedo, it is impossible for it to be unscathed like those made of super light steel.

The armor thickness was increased to more than one meter, and the deck thickness was increased to more than half a meter.

After instructing Tian Yirang to reply to the mainland, Wang Ze rushed to the research institute.

Understand the progress of ship design and also issue tasks to optimize current battleships.

Today's battleships are still pretty good, but Wang Ze feels that the utilization rate of the internal space is too low, and the deck is not fully utilized. From a distance, it looks very empty, and the huge cannons set off by the huge deck feel very small.

After a conversation with Frederick, Wang Ze decided that the institute's future projects would focus on the development of information technology, aerospace, new energy, new materials, high-end equipment, and biomedicine.

These will be the foundation of the future new city, especially in the field of aerospace. After the Soviet Union recently achieved satellite launch, the United States is also catching up in this field.

Wang Ze believes that Xincheng has great advantages in this regard. The high temperature resistance of super light steel can also be used in rocket launches. Having this material will greatly reduce the difficulty of Xincheng's development in the aerospace field.

With the support of satellites, the development of intercontinental missiles can be carried out more smoothly.

This will be an important part of the new city's offensive power.

The field of materials is Xincheng's strong point. In recent years, Wang Ze has given the research institute a lot of materials he synthesized, and through experiments he has also explored some methods for manufacturing excellent materials.

It’s just that these advanced materials are not yet needed in the new city, so they have been sealed.

A light steel product has caused so many troubles. Without sufficient self-protection capabilities, Xincheng will not be able to produce many things.

This discussion with Frederick allowed the institute to determine the research and development path, where resources for many side projects would be reduced, while the main projects would receive full support.

The biggest support was the decision to establish a university in the new city.

The addition of talent is what Frederick wants most now.

It is not easy to recruit outstanding scientific researchers nowadays. There is no such good opportunity as after the end of World War II.

If you want to develop you must cultivate yourself.

Now the new generation of young researchers in the research institute are basically the children of German scientists. More than ten years of training have enabled these children to become independent.

And Wang Ze would also incorporate some lightness as rewards to these outstanding children at the annual meeting every year.

Before these young people decide to settle down in the research institute, Wang Ze will not activate their pineal glands. If they are activated, these people will be dependent on Qingling Pills for the rest of their lives.

This is also the result of discussions with scientists who have activated the pineal gland in the research institute. They are unwilling to let children be tied here before they have made a fixed choice.
