Chapter 726 The fleet enters the Yangtze River

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    As the first batch of land-ships arrived at the border areas one after another and began their garrison and patrol missions, Yan State also regained absolute control over its own borders.

    Before the disaster, the outposts on the border relied on a huge logistics system to be maintained. After the disaster, as the environment gradually worsened, not only was the logistics system used to maintain the entire border defense supply unsustainable, but even the outpost itself could not withstand such harsh conditions.  of natural environment.

    This forced the military to withdraw the soldiers stationed at the outposts, and gradually gave up patrolling and garrisoning the border.

    And now, as land-ships re-establish permanent strongholds and launch patrols on the border, the former national border once again has the power to guard it.

    Based on this alone, the military is very satisfied with the land cruiser.

    The land craft is not only used for border defense. Some of the land craft converted into frigates were sent to Lucia to support the European battlefield as accompanying ships and land aircraft carriers, and some were sent to the battlefield in the Dongting Lake area.  superior.

    Along with these land-ships, there was another land-based aircraft carrier that arrived on the battlefield, the former flagship of the Northern Fleet and the first aircraft carrier built by the Yan Kingdom.

    This domestically produced aircraft carrier, which the country spent countless efforts and energy to build, once placed the Chinese people's ardent expectations for a powerful navy, and was the culmination of generations of people's efforts. In any case, it should not be left frozen on the sea like this.  Let the cold wind erode.

    Therefore, after serious discussions with the Navy and high-level national officials, it was finally decided to transform this aircraft carrier into a land-based aircraft carrier so that it can play a role again.

    After getting permission from the country, Chen Xin naturally transformed the aircraft carrier into a land-based aircraft carrier, equipped it with an escort formation, and formed a standard aircraft carrier combat formation to support the Dongting Lake area.  War situation.

    This formation did not go in a straight line from land to the Dongting Lake area, but went upstream along the Yangtze River from the outer sea.

    The reason for taking this step is, on the one hand, to give the crew time to become familiar with the operation of the ship, and on the other hand, it is also a long-distance navigation test for all ships in the entire fleet.

    In this formation, Chen Xin naturally also installed an anti-gravity device. Both the land-based aircraft carrier and other land-based ships in the formation are equipped with anti-gravity devices.

    However, under normal navigation conditions, although the anti-gravity device remained on, it did not allow the ship to fly.

    Rather, it operates in a way that offsets the weight of the hull and reduces the burden on the load-bearing structure and traveling mechanism.

    "Academician Chen, since the anti-gravity device on this ship can make the ship fly, why don't you just make all the ships into spaceships?" In the tower of the aircraft carrier Cambridge, a Navy rear admiral looked at what was going on on the deck.  The fighter jets who were taking off and landing training suddenly asked Chen Xin.

    This is something that many people don¡¯t quite understand. Since we have anti-gravity technology, why not just build a floating fleet?  Instead of letting the fleet crawl on the ground?

    Regarding this question, Chen Xin could only shrug his shoulders helplessly and replied to the Major General: "General Zhang, it's not that I don't want to, but with the current technology of anti-gravity devices, it means a lot to build a floating fleet.  Huge amounts of energy are consumed, and even a micro-fusion reactor can only just meet its energy consumption needs.

    "The other aspect is that I can make things, but then scientists won't be able to understand how I did it.  "At this point, Chen Xin paused and spread his hands helplessly: "In fact, even with the current anti-gravity device, with our country's scientific research strength, if you want to understand its principle and copy it,  It is not an easy task to build a device with the same functions even if I provide the drawings. I am afraid it will take at least ten years to achieve results.  "

    Hearing what Chen Xin said, the major general known as General Zhang could only nodded in understanding and helplessness.

    As a veteran navy man who has experienced decades of naval construction, he certainly understands how difficult it is to produce a finished product with such a high-tech product.

    Even if you buy a complete set of technology from others, it will take several years to understand the R&D and design ideas and master the core technology with step-by-step guidance.

    And even if you master the technology, if you want to put it into practical application and production, you still need a long period of technical research and research and development.

    So for Chen Xin, the old general can still understand that if the effect is improved, scientific researchers will not be able to understand it. Now it will take ten years to replicate the same thing.

    However, Chen Xin also saw the old general's urgent mood, so he comforted him: "General Zhang, you don't have to be too disappointed. The anti-gravity devices currently installed on these land cruisers are already very effective."Well, although we usually consider the relationship between energy consumption and the hull's endurance, we only operate at low power consumption in a way that offsets 80% of the hull's weight. However, when necessary, we can still turn on the full power operation mode to make the hull fly, but it will continue to  It can't be too long.  "

    "I know this. I have seen it before when we entered the Yangtze River from Shanghai. Such a big ship can fly. This technology is really amazing!" Speaking of this, General Zhang could not hide his excitement.

    As a veteran navy, it is already exciting to watch the fleet that was once frozen in ice sail again, not to mention watching these behemoths weighing tens of thousands of tons fly and shuttle through the sky.

    The shock of such a scene is simply beyond words. If General Zhang hadn¡¯t been in good health, I¡¯m afraid just seeing such a scene would have caused heart problems in excitement, right?

    However, after experiencing the first excitement, the old general has become more tolerant of such a scene, although he is still excited every time he sees the fleet taking off to cross the cross-river bridge on the Yangtze River.

    Just when Chen Xin and General Zhang were discussing some issues regarding the floating navigation of land craft, an alarm bell suddenly sounded on the ship.

    However, Chen Xin and General Zhang were not nervous about this. They just asked the staff at the tower: "Is there another bridge ahead?"

    This has been heard more than once in the past few days since the fleet entered the Yangtze River, and everyone is used to it.

    "Yes, we have arrived at the three towns in Hubei Province, and there are many Yangtze River bridges ahead." The staff did not feel nervous about this and answered the two people's questions calmly.

    At this time, a broadcast also sounded on the ship: "This ship is about to start anti-gravity sailing. There will be bumps during the ascent. All personnel please pay attention to grasping the nearby handles and fixing themselves to avoid falling. Deck flight takeoff and landing are suspended. All  Staff please enter the deck bunker."
