The morale of the navy was resolved. But how the navy will fight has not yet been resolved. The bad thing is. There is not a single ship in the navy that can fight. The State of Qin officially responded after the naval base of the State of Chu attacked the Qin State naval base.

The State of Qin officially declared war on the State of Chu. But Qin Guo issued another statement. In moral considerations. The war was limited to the Yangtze River and the 20-mile radius on both sides of the strait. The land situation remains the same. This is a strange war. The war only took place in a limited area of ​​the Yangtze River.

After the declaration of war was issued. The Ministry of the Navy of the State Weifu of Qin State officially announced that it will issue a naval shipbuilding plan to private shipyards. Its total value will be more than two million gold ships, one million new technology and weaponry.

As a result, the Qin Minjian Shipyard has not yet been built. It ushered in a large military purchase order. This military order greatly stimulated the tremendous development of Qin's shipbuilding industry.

Because it is in the war stage. Especially the surface war. So I just said the news that might boost confidence. The specific content is distributed to each newly established shipyard in the form of top-secret documents. Orders will be placed immediately after bidding, drawings, experimental products, inspection, evaluation and other measures.

Qin Haijun first tendered a fast gunboat. Crew ten to fifteen people.

All made of steel. Consider technical issues. Later, the tender document was revised. Use wood partially instead.

Engine power is no longer the use of natural force. Propelled by wind. There are other options. There are two major categories of steam engines and internal combustion engines.

In terms of weaponry, at least two machine guns will be installed. Two 3.5-inch guns.

After these requirements are issued. The major shipyards have begun to develop. Because the shipyard has not yet been constructed. and so. The Ministry of the Navy temporarily loaned Chang'an Naval Military Academy to major shipyards as experimental bases.

The Prime Minister's Mansion opened the door to shipyards. Land used by shipyards. It's almost a free gift. The government only charged some fees for processing in a token manner. However, the major shipyards have obtained land ownership rights of more than 10,000 mu. The government does not levy any taxes on shipyards for five years. Not only exempt. It also provides a large number of special loans, related logistics and transportation, and special tax reductions for steel products. Some shipyards pay some taxes and fees when buying steel Shangwen. These have been reduced. Such a large amount of support has never been seen before.

But when the war broke out, Qin had to send troops to fight. The Naval Department and the Naval Division of the General Staff began to come up with their own plans. The plan given by the General Staff is to build a river fortress. Use the shore fire cannon fort. Especially the use of large-caliber fort cannons. Once this kind of artillery is deployed in the narrow waters of the Yangtze River. Then the entire waterway can be sealed off.

In addition. The use of a new technology can help shore fire guns to aim and fire at night. This is a high-power searchlight. Optical research found. Fill the bulb with some special others. Usually, when it is inert, such as argon, the care will increase a lot. Especially with reflective devices. The light beam can be more concentrated. Experimental surface. Continuous bright light can cause temporary or permanent blindness. It depends on the power. This technology was first applied to air defense forces. Especially Xianyang night air defense. But this kind of searchlight shining into the sky at night did not serve his original purpose. air defense. At that time, it played a beautifying effect of night lights.

The use of these two technical equipment can solve the current presumptuous behavior of the Chu State navy. But it is only passively defensive.

The Admiralty took the opportunity to propose the establishment of naval aviation arms. But it was opposed by the Army and the Space Army of the General Staff. The reason is that. The two major services are unwilling to see the emergence of a third aviation force. Especially when it comes to funding. Army aviation eats up three-tenths of funds used for aviation. The heavenly army ate another four tenths. The rest belong to technology development funds. If you join the naval aviation. The two funds were less than two-tenths of the scale at once. The navy is gaining momentum. In particular, it has received unanimous support from the whole country. King Qin also took special care. There is another battle to fight.

Although the two services opposed. But the establishment of naval aviation is a trend. Especially the pressure of the current war is huge. Defence alone is not enough to quickly solve the problem of surface warfare.

Want to make the other party make concessions. Then you have to let the other party fail. There is only one way to fail. That is offense. There is no power on the water. That is to use air power.

The proposal of naval aviation. Has the support of all parties. But at this time the army and the heavenly army proposed two parties to help it defeat the surface forces of Chu. But the navy used the combat area as the surface. Rejected the proposals of the two parties respectively.

Army aviation is based on attacking land targets. Not a surface target. The main task of the Celestial Army is to bomb in depth. Not to bomb surface targets. Although the reason is reluctant. Moreover, the missions of the Army and the Army have a big ambiguity in their objectives. Naval aviation has a very strong sense of independence.

Just when the space army and the army aviation unit jointly launched an attack on the establishment of the naval aviation unit. An order from King Qin broke all controversies.

A combat flying brigade of the Xianyang Royal Air Defense Flying Force. An aerial gunboat squadron was transferred to naval aviation. And became the first air force of naval aviation.

Such an order is really unexpected. This is a great honor. The royal air force was directly divided into a special naval aviation force. This surprised the Navy.

King Qin gave this order because the economic level requires a rapid solution to the problem of rising raw material prices. Keeping raw materials cheap is necessary to maintain the healthy development of Qin's economy. After solving the Chu State Water Army. Solve the water theft problem immediately. Then control the entire Yangtze River.

Taking into account the traffic pressure in the south. The road has not been built yet. The railway is stepping up construction. The Xinzheng section and the Luoyang section of the railway have now merged in the Nanyang area. Then go directly south.

Demand for steel increased. King Qin specifically instructed the establishment of a special steel plant in the south. In order to meet the needs of naval shipbuilding. And the construction of a large number of commercial ships in the future will also require a large amount of steel. Such instructions are already in the planning of commercial enterprises. Especially large shipyards like Yingyu. The demand for steel will be very large.

Steel plants tend to be built on the riverside in terms of site selection. The raw materials can be transported by railway transportation of high-quality coal and iron ingots from Zhao State. After controlling the waterways in the future. Large ships are used to ship the above-mentioned raw materials from the Yangtze River to the north on the Liaodong Peninsula and Yanguo waters. In this way, the first steel plant in the south is planned in the south. The location of the steel plant. It means that some economic entities of Qin State have begun to move south. The development of the South has been strengthened again.
