We can't build too many powerful enemies, but I think we should put aside the dispute with Gran and Mao Qiu, and jointly deal with the state of will, let alone clear it."

Francis was silent for a while after listening.

"We will not give up the interests of the Far East. I have known people's thoughts and actions a long time ago. I have already asked Gran."

Gan Bi laughed and said.

"Oh!"

"Then what did they say?"

Francis was a little surprised and asked quickly.

"This is the latest plan of the Navy Headquarters, the Green Water Naval Project. You can take a look!"

"They believe that torpedo boats will become the main attack force in the future. If we have a large number of torpedo boats, we will not be afraid of Gran's navy. We will never be better than battleships with them, but with these torpedo boats, their battleships will move in. Do not enter our coast."

While speaking, Gan Bida took out a document and handed it to Francis.

"Did we sell those equipment and shipyards for this reason?"

Francis glanced briefly, and he was roughly finished.

"Hehe! Why don't they give us money? Where can they find such a big benefactor?"

Gan Bi laughed, thinking that he would be content when he arrived.

"But your Excellency, submarines can't go to oceans. Do we really need the manufacture of all battleships? The original "Big Mac Project" is still going to be implemented? The Dingyuan ship has already demonstrated the power of a giant ship. We really want to To build the submarine that has not been tested in actual combat?"

After listening to Francis, he quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind and finally said.

The "Big Mac" will still be built, but by changing the four to two, the other battleships will no longer be built.The body of this document is finalized, so don't worry about it."

Since the eighteenth world, Gaul has been catching up with Gran’s navy. It should be because they knew that Gran relied on a powerful navy to defeat the once incomparable "Federation of the Netherlands", achieving an empire that never sets in the sun, and has the most in the world. Colony.

Therefore, Gaul also desperately developed the navy, and has always maintained the second position of the world navy, and almost in the Gran Victoria era, they focused on the enclosure movement and colonial suppression, surpassing Gran's navy.

But when their Admiral Orlando, Cerf was in charge of the Navy Department, all this changed.Xunread www.xunread.com

Orlando believes that submarines will become the main development direction of naval warfare in the future. It completely negated the battleship plan, and still produced a large number of attack torpedo boats. If it weren't for the Dingyuan ship, it would gradually get in touch with submarines.

If it hadn’t been for the Dingyuan ship’s powerful combat effectiveness, perhaps even Gaul’s "Big Mac" plan would have been cancelled. Even so, the original four 20,000-ton battleships would be replaced by two.

Because it is difficult for these torpedo boats and even submarines to do ocean-going operations, this plan is also called the "Green Water Navy" plan.

Knowing that it was 7 years later, they woke up and quickly began to build battleships, and built five huge battleships within a year.

It was just that the seven-year gap at that time was not only a gap in quantity, but also a fault in technology and design genius.Gaul's financial resources did not allow them to make up too much.

Therefore, this erroneous decision made the Gaul's navy quickly languish. It was thrown a few blocks away by the Gran Navy, and it was even far surpassed by the army of will next to it, and it was reduced to an existence that agreed to make profits.

This period of time was also called the "Dark Age of Orlando" by the Gallic Navy by later experts.

Wang Guangxu took advantage of this and purchased the equipment of the Gaul shipyard on a large scale. The technicians did not seem to have taken them away, but they will disappear one by one in the future. Gaul no longer needs them, and they will not be willing. Army, Gran?The proud Gran Navy and designers cannot tolerate them, so there is only one place they can choose.

In his view, before the maturity of aircraft carrier aircraft, battleships were invincible at sea.As for the "submarine" and his like, a "sonar" is something that can be solved.

In the Battle of Gaul, the navy took great credit, and it can be said that it was able to win. More than half of the credit is due to the navy.

And if you don't have a strong shipbuilding industry, how can you have an invincible navy, you can never buy the latest warships.

Moreover, in the history of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the "Dingyuan" and "Zhenyuan" bombs remained unsinkable, but they could not be repaired after returning to China. As a result, they could not exert their combat power at all. Otherwise, the neon navy would not be so rampant.

At this time, Wang Guangxu also began to prepare for the construction of the railway and the establishment of the Hubei Machinery Bureau, making preparations for strategic depth. If one day the great powers reflect on a large-scale attack, there will be enough large rears to be invincible. .

Soon after, Zhang Zhidong was transferred from the post of Shangshu of the Ministry of Household to the Governor of Huguang, and Li Hongzhang took over as the prime minister's office.

The Governor of Liangjiang was replaced by Liu Shenyi, a hardcore member of the Westernization faction.

Although the preparations of the strategic rear could not be used until ten years later, Wang Guangxu still had no regrets at that time, because the powers had many opportunities to squeeze or slow down their progress, but they were delayed due to the complicated relationship between them. Down.

After they reacted, the Qing Empire had grown into a giant that no one could shake.

The end of the Annan War led to a frenzy in the development of light industry. During the war, a large number of military supplies were purchased from here, and they obtained benefits that were dozens of times and hundreds of times more than land.

This kind of investment is also full of confidence, and they began to get involved in other industries, and at the same time they have driven more people to participate, and most of these people are people in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai and Dongguang coastal areas who are more exposed to new things...
