Chapter 149: Big Ships and Big Guns! Arrange a Hood for the Big Man!
After playing the Interstellar video and related discussion and research videos.
In ancient times, there was always a small craze for astronomical research.
It's just limited by insufficient conditions.
Ancient people could only look up at the sky.
I wondered whether the Chinese people in future generations were also looking up at the same sky as me.
Even at the same time!
……
A new day, a new sky!
[Big ships and big guns! A list of the top ten battleships during World War II! ]
[Big ships and big guns were the mainstream naval ideology before World War II.]
[Bigger ships, heavier tonnage, larger gun caliber. ]
[I am bigger! I am stronger! ]
[The product of the big ship and big gun doctrine is the battleship! ]
[Battleships are often the absolute main battleships in the fleets of various countries, with the largest tonnage, the heaviest protection and the most terrifying firepower! ]
[So, now let's take a look at the top ten battleships of World War II! ]
……
Originally, in most of the ancient times.
Feudal dynasties did not attach much importance to the navy.
Even some countries that attach importance to the navy tend to focus on inland fleets rather than the navy.
But at the same time as the sky curtain began to introduce.
Images of classic battleships from World War II continue to appear on the screen, using very cool editing techniques.
The whole scene became very shocking!
After seeing the images of these giant warships of later generations, most ancient people were completely unable to walk.
The ancients also watched with great interest these super-giant ships of later generations, which were guided by the idea of big ships and big guns!
[No. 10, Hood battlecruiser! ]
[Specific parameters are: the ship is over 262 meters long, the ship is over 31 meters wide, the full load displacement is about 41785 tons, the main guns are four twin 381 mm main guns, equipped with 6 533 mm torpedo launchers, the maximum speed reaches 32 knots, and the thickness of the main side armor is 305 mm. ]
Compared with other advanced battleships, Hood was not very strong or exaggerated among the top battleships of World War II.
But when Hood's specific parameters were displayed on the sky screen along with its detailed close-up images.
The ancients were still shocked instantly.
Han Dynasty.
Liu Che looked at the huge size of the Hood and its exaggerated firepower on the sky.
I can't help but feel terrible!
And I really want to have it.
"Strong! Too strong!"
"Looking at the caliber of the gun and the thickness of the armor, even the most powerful Tiger King tank in later generations is just a toy in front of Hood."
"This future battleship is simply the ultimate terrifying weapon of war!"
"It is no exaggeration to say that this weapon can destroy a country."
"I have wanted to build a navy before, to conquer those who dare to invade China in the future."
"But after analysis by my staff."
"It is extremely difficult for our Han navy to effectively deploy troops to the islands in the east."
“So I can only think about it.”
"But if I were given a HMS Hood."
"Then let alone a mere island country, even if we go to a farther place, to the unowned land of North America, let our Han people own the rich and fertile land of North America!"
“It’s also an easy thing.”
Sui Dynasty.
Yang Guang stood by the Grand Canal and looked at the dragon boats on the canal.
Looking at the Hood appearing on the sky, I felt envious and jealous.
"Why do I feel like... my dragon boat suddenly doesn't smell good anymore."
"How wonderful it would be if I could use the Hood as my dragon boat."
……
tomorrow.
Zhu Di pointed at the sky and said jokingly:
"Give me a battleship, and I'll give it to Zheng He to command. Zheng He can easily take over the UAE!"
"Make that desert full of gold part of the territory of our Ming Dynasty."
"Incorporate it into the estate directly under the control of the Ming Dynasty imperial family!" "If the income from this land is used to enrich the treasury, then the emperor of the Ming Dynasty will never be short of money again and can do whatever he wants."
……
And Qi Jiguang was training his troops.
Looking at the huge object on the sky, the Hood looked at the terrifying eight 300mm main guns and the various small and medium-sized artillery densely packed on the battleship.
My eyes are wide open!
Qi Jiguang, a general who fought against the Japanese pirates, knew that if he had a battleship, the Japanese pirates would no longer be a problem!
Not only are they no longer able to harass the Ming coastline.
Instead, he wanted to drive a huge warship, cross the ocean easily, and directly flatten the Japanese homeland!
It's also an easy thing.
……
And the sky curtain continues to tell stories about various powerful battleships.
[9th place: King George V-class battleship...]
[8th place: North Carolina-class battleship...]
[Seventh place: Nagato-class battleship...]
[Sixth place: Richelieu-class battleship...]
[Fifth place: Veneto-class battleship (Italy)]

The main guns are three triple-mounted 3-caliber 50mm naval guns, and the secondary guns are 406 twin-mounted 10-caliber 38mm dual-purpose guns. The maximum speed is 127 knots, and the front armor of the turret is 33 mm thick. ]
When I saw the second place.
Huo Qubing, a veteran land warfare expert.
Noticed a situation.
The ranking of battleships is completely different from the ranking of tanks and cannons that appeared before.
In the tank rankings, three of the German tanks make up the top five.
The top five cannons are all made in Germany!
And now.
Huo Qubing saw that among the nine types of battleships that had appeared so far, only one was German.
So Huo Qubing also smiled and spoke in a relaxed tone.
"The German army during World War II was indeed very strong."
"But it can be seen that the German navy's strength is relatively average."
"Most of the tanks and cannons before were from the German army."
"The German navy now has only one battleship."
"So, after Germany, whose navy is not that strong, quickly destroyed France, can it still eliminate the threat from Britain?"
"Without a navy, it would be difficult for Germany to truly threaten the British island nation."
As an expert in land warfare, Huo Qubing prefers the German military during World War II.
Therefore, people from different disciplines made speculations and comments.
After listening to this, Liu Che smiled and nodded, saying:
"I have heard two words on the sky before, sea power countries and land power countries."
"Germany is clearly a land power."
"So the German tanks and artillery are top-notch."
"But a strong army is not enough. If you want to conquer Britain, you need a strong navy."
"It would be a bit too much to expect a land power's navy to be stronger than naval powers like the United Kingdom and the United States."
"Let's take a look at the battleship ranked first. Which country is it from?"
"It should be a certain maritime power."
When he said this, Liu Che's face suddenly darkened, and the relaxed smile on his face disappeared.
Because Liu Che thought that the Japan that he hated very much should also be a maritime power.
This was the number one battleship during World War II.
Could it be the Japanese battleship?
