I want to ruin the country

Chapter 562: The Tianjin Ship was launched

Yining also had another important plan, which was to completely resolve the issue of the Japanese pumpkin and then formally break off relations with the British.

No matter how powerful one is, fighting on two fronts is not a wise option.

Now that the squash problem has been solved, a lot of worries have gone away. I no longer have to worry about anything near China, and things are much easier to do.

Although there are constant frictions between Senglinqin and Tsarist Russia in the north, the situation is under control. As long as Yining does not escalate the situation, Tsarist Russia will not dare to invade openly.

Why? The reason is that he was scared after being beaten by Senglin himself.

At the beginning, the Russians were not convinced. After the spring, they organized several large-scale battles, but they all ended in defeat.

The Russians restrained themselves when they saw the terrifying combat effectiveness of the Chinese army.

If both sides had not been deliberately controlling the situation, the northern border would probably have been in the midst of war.

In the west, You Zongtang was relatively stable. During the past six months, he basically wiped out all the bandits in Gansu and Ningxia.

He called to ask for instructions whether to attack to the west!

Yining told him that the main task now was to deal with the Japanese pirates and Myanmar.

If war breaks out on all sides, there may be problems with logistics, after all, the current military-industrial enterprises are just starting out.

Without sufficient guns, ammunition and strong logistics support, the soldiers will have to make up for these shortcomings with their lives.

After the issues between Japan and Myanmar are resolved, it won’t be too late for him and Senglin Qin to attack north and west.

In June of the Gregorian calendar, the first warship of Tianjin Shipyard was launched.

Yining took several relevant ministers and several of his beautiful wives to Tianjin Shipyard by car.

When we arrived at the palace gate, we saw several brand new black jeeps parked there. These were new cars just produced by the Kyoto Automobile Manufacturing Plant.

The driver was a young soldier. Yining walked over.

"You go take another car, I'll drive this one!"

"Your Majesty, you?"

The soldiers were in a difficult situation as they had strict rules.

Lin Zexu came over and said,

"Your Majesty, this is a new car. Have you driven it before?"

"Same thing, get in the car!"

Seeing that the emperor was so confident, Lin Zexu waved his hand and the soldiers ran to the car behind.

Yining sat in the driver's seat, turned the key, and started the engine. The engine ran smoothly.

I stepped on the gas pedal twice and the throttle response was very sensitive, which seems to be of good quality.

Looking back, Hongxiu, Qingxi, Jintang and Wen Mujin were standing below watching and asked,

"Why don't you get in the car?"

The four of them quickly got into the car. Wen Mujin was pregnant, so she sat in the passenger seat.

There are just enough seats for three in the back.

Yining thought that it seemed necessary to build a commercial vehicle, otherwise there would not be enough space for the wives to sit in it!

On the way, in order to test the quality of the car, Yining stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and the jeep ran to the limit of 130 kilometers.

The four wives were a little scared at first, but later they shouted excitedly, completely losing their ladylike image.

Seeing Wen Mujin also screaming, Yining didn't know what she was saying.

The two of them didn't spend much time together alone, so Yining still couldn't understand his Sulu dialect.

However, it did not prevent Wen Bujin from getting pregnant, which made Hongxiu and the others roll their eyes in jealousy.

The drivers of the cars behind are all experienced drivers selected from hundreds of thousands. They have undergone rigorous driving training in the army and their driving skills have reached perfection.

Seeing the emperor running happily, they also became excited and followed him at lightning speed.

There are very few cars on the road now, so they can drive so fast.

Finally, Yining thought that Wen Mujin was pregnant, and she couldn't let her be too nervous, and she also couldn't set such a precedent for others, so she slowed down the speed of the car and kept it at about 100 kilometers.

Just like that, in an hour and a half, they arrived at the shipyard.

There was a white warship docked in the dock, shining silver in the sun.

In Yining's mind, when comparing this ship with the later 052 and 055, he thought it was extremely ugly.

However, Lin Zexu, Dou Zhenbiao and others were extremely shocked when they saw it.

This warship, Yining, was built according to the later Chongqing light cruiser.

The Chongqing cruiser belongs to the Linxian-class light cruiser, which is the successor to the Amphion-class light cruiser.

The difference is that the previous Linxian-class light cruisers all had single-legged masts. In order to install radar and other electronic equipment on the masts, the lower ends of the front and rear masts were changed to truss-type triangular masts.

The ship is 154.22 meters long, 15.54 meters wide, has a draft of 5.03 meters, a standard displacement of 5220 tons, and a full load displacement of more than 7000 tons.

In terms of power, it is equipped with four Parsons turbine main engines.

Each unit can reach 16000 horsepower, and the rated power can reach 6.4 horsepower.

It adopts a four-propeller and single-rudder model, with a blade diameter of nearly three meters.

With such surging power, the ship can rush at a speed of 31 knots, and its maximum endurance reaches 4000 nautical miles.

In terms of armament, it is equipped with two 6-inch (152 mm) twin front main turrets and one rear main turret.

There are also four 4-inch (102 mm) twin dual-purpose secondary turrets, distributed on both sides of the rear chimney and the rear mast.

Two 40.5 mm (2-pound) quadruple Hotchkiss guns are arranged on the port and starboard sides between the two chimneys.

There are also two sets of triple 533mm torpedo tubes, distributed on the left and right sides behind the midship.

In addition, there are 2 sets of depth charge launchers and mine sweepers.

If aircraft are available in the future, the ship may be equipped with three 20mm twin-mounted Oerlikon anti-aircraft machine guns and two 3mm single-mounted Oerlikon anti-aircraft machine guns.

It can also be equipped with ship-borne aircraft for correcting artillery fire and reconnaissance.

Now Yining has planned to equip the ship with a high-angle director control tower.

还要装备和284/286对空搜索雷达,273型和271型对海搜索雷达,285型和282型对空火控雷达。

Armor protection has also been strengthened. The thickness of the ammunition compartment and waterline belt is 70 mm, and the bulkhead and turret are 35 mm.

With these weapons and radars, this warship can be said to be armed to the teeth and protected to the heart.

In the entire five oceans, no matter who encounters this ship, they will be unable to defeat it or escape from it. It can kill gods and Buddhas.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Dou Zhenbiao ordered the launching ceremony to begin.

Immediately, the guards fired a salute, and suddenly the dock was filled with the sound of gongs and drums and firecrackers.

Amidst the cheers of the people, the warship entered the water via slides and other equipment.

After a huge shaking, relevant technical personnel rushed on board to carry out the first round of inspections and tests.

Finally, the report confirmed that everything was normal on the battleship.
