I built an armada.

Chapter 510: Longxia warship is really advanced
This was an extremely sharp question. Many tribal representatives remained silent, with a sour feeling in their hearts.

In the past, many tribes were buying military equipment, but what they bought were all obsolete goods.

They are not the only ones in this regard.

How did the Longxia Navy get here in the first place?
Everyone knows it clearly.

How could a warship that is in active service be sold?
Of course, those retired warships that are no longer needed and would be a pity to throw away will be sold for money. If we can earn more military expenses, that's all. No matter what, getting our money back is the most important thing!
“Now you can see that many of the tribes you represent have bought second-hand goods!”

"It sounds nice to say they are second-hand goods, but in fact they are all obsolete, old junk that has been in service for decades and is no longer useful. They break down within a few days of being bought."

Zhang Zhaoxin's words touched everyone's heart. They already hated second-hand goods, but there were only a few companies in the entire Blue Star that could sell warships. This was how a seller's market worked.

Not only were they second-hand goods, but they were also sold at a higher price than new ships. Those tribes treated them as suckers and ripped them off.

"I say this to tell you that we are different. Each of our warships is newly launched and is produced entirely in accordance with your needs."

"It will be equipped with brand new specialized missiles, artillery, etc. All of them are brand new products!"

Zhang Zhaoxin then raised his voice by an octave, with full of energy.

"We can even help you put a new logo of your tribe on your warship. We have a good reputation for integrity."

"I think the Laxi tribe representative has the most say on this point."

So everyone looked at Elias, the representative of the Laxi tribe.

At the beginning, Elias paid more than half of the deposit before signing the order for 051C missile destroyers from the Longxia Navy, which was a big risk at the time.

Elias was quite touched by this, and he looked around at everyone and spoke loudly.

"In terms of integrity, the Longxia Navy is absolutely guaranteed."

"We paid billions of RMB in advance to sign a batch of military equipment orders. As a result, you all saw that we were very satisfied with the goods delivered."

"As long as you have paid attention to the battle records between our navy and the Ertu tribe in the past two years, you will know that the quality of the warships sold to us by the Longxia tribe is absolutely guaranteed."

“Of course, the logistical support is also very impressive!”

With Elias standing up to endorse them, everyone felt a lot more relieved, even though the Laxi tribe behind him was just a small tribe.

After all, they had all paid attention to those battles. The combat effectiveness displayed by the Longxia warship was very eye-catching, allowing the world to witness the powerful combat power of the Longxia warship.

From then on, the Longxia warship began to emerge in the international market and won many orders.

"Everyone, I have said everything I need to say. Now you should think carefully about it. If you accept our conditions, then..."

Zhang Zhaoxin raised his right hand slightly, pointed to the side and said, "Just stand where you are. Those who don't accept it can stand over there."

"Next, I will lead the tribal representatives who have accepted the conditions to visit the warship, and I will explain to you in detail the various aspects of the warship's performance."

"For those who do not accept, staff will escort you back to the host hotel, and then you can leave on your own."

The representatives looked at each other, each one hesitant.

That's what the arms trade is like.

I can't have it without you.

If you have it and I don’t, then we won’t be able to live in the future.

In this way, if you don't leave and look like you are going to buy something, I won't dare to leave even if I want to.

Just like the Feilu tribe, the Qianfo tribe, and the Niying tribe, all their naval warships were destroyed. Although life was difficult, they could still survive.

If the Iron Monkey Tribe bought the new warship from the Longxia Tribe, the other two tribes would have a hard time, which they absolutely could not accept.

No matter what, they absolutely cannot leave until the other party leaves.

This is the advantage of public sales, which ensures that everyone has the opportunity to buy and focuses on sales.

As for bidding, of course the highest bidder wins. It is a scarce resource!
Everyone soon noticed the White Bear Tribe and the Eagle Tribe. The representatives of these two tribes were indifferent and stood there without moving. Suddenly, everyone felt numb inside and could not care less. They could only stay where they were and no one showed any intention of leaving.

After waiting for a while and seeing that no one showed any intention of leaving, Zhang Zhaoxin smiled and said.

"not bad!"

"It can be seen that you all came here with sincerity, so we will have something to talk about next."

"Before you board the ship, let me introduce its combat record."

Zhang Zhaoxin did not bring people on board the ship immediately, but looked at everyone again.

"Do you remember the large-scale naval battle between my tribe and the East Wasteland Tribe?"

Everyone nodded. That battle caused the East Wasteland Sea to never recover from it. It also allowed the world to witness the true strength of the Longxia Navy for the first time, and the impression was naturally very deep.

"You are not mistaken. The main force in that battle was the 052B. It was it that was on the high seas, chasing the warships sent by the East Desolate Sea."

"By the way, the East Desert Sea has been full of the 88 Fleet since then, and its strength is extremely strong."

Zhang Zhaoxin's words shocked everyone present, and a very terrifying idea emerged in their minds at the same time.

At that time, the Longxia Navy was already so powerful and had such advanced warships? Wasn't it too well hidden?
It is well known to the world how powerful the 88 Fleet is, and its ships are all built according to the highest standards of the Eagle Tribe.

Alan, the representative of the Eagle Tribe, had an extremely ugly expression on his face.

He never dreamed that the Longxia Navy had such advanced warships.

In contrast, the White Bear Tribe representative, Dalft, was also feeling very upset.

They were very unhappy that they did not buy the light aircraft carrier seized from the East Desert Maritime Self-Defense Force.

In the end, he was fooled by the Longxia Navy into spending a lot of money to purchase the core technology of the aircraft carrier, which has been a thorn in his side.

But now, he figured it out.

A lot of money was indeed spent, but after the core technology was brought back, it greatly promoted the development of the White Bear Tribe's naval equipment, especially in the development of aircraft carriers.

By this calculation, the money is worth spending.

But he didn't expect that the warships that the Longxia Navy put up for sale were so advanced. Wouldn't the ones they kept for sale be even more powerful?

This made him feel somewhat bitter. After all, they were also the sellers in the beginning, and they sold the warship to the Longxia Navy. And only a few years had passed?

While everyone was in shock, Zhang Zhaoxin added.

"At the beginning, we relied on the well-organized 052B fleet to confront the main fleet of the East Desert Sea Self-Defense Force, led by aircraft carriers, head-on at the sea boundary line and annihilated them in one fell swoop."

"It can be said that the 052B has made great achievements in all previous naval battles, and has maintained a record of not being sunk."

"If you buy it back, you will definitely not suffer any loss or be cheated!"

After hearing these words, everyone could no longer sit still.

How powerful is this 052B?

They were able to confront the East Coast Maritime Self-Defense Force's aircraft carrier fleet battle group and finally annihilated it!

This is too scary! "Colonel Zhang, we understand what you mean. Just tell us the price of this ship first, so that we can give up in advance."

Someone immediately shouted loudly.

Zhang Zhaoxin smiled casually and was very friendly.

"There is no rush to quote the price for now, it will definitely be very affordable."

"I am just a scientific researcher, responsible for the preliminary explanation work, leading you to fully understand the various aspects of the ship's performance and historical achievements. And to be honest with you, I don't know how to quote."

"As for the quote, someone will come and introduce it to you later."

"Okay, let's continue with the previous topic and introduce the performance of this ship."

"Please follow me aboard."

After saying this, he took the lead up the spiral staircase and boarded the deck of 052B.

After all the representatives had boarded the ship, he once again began to introduce them very attentively.

"052B guided missile destroyer, 158 meters long! Full load displacement 6000 tons..."

"The maximum speed is 35 knots, and the endurance is 6000 to 9000 nautical miles..."

When the specific data were revealed one by one, everyone's eyes widened in disbelief.

They could never have imagined that the warships of the Longxia Navy had become so advanced.

These data are too explosive. No wonder a warship chased after several ships of the 88 Fleet of the East Desert Maritime Self-Defense Force.

However, such a warship did not appear at the naval review ceremony two days ago. So how powerful are the warships displayed by the Longxia Navy?
"You heard me right. What I said are all our data that have been tested in actual combat. They can stand the test of the battlefield."

"Of course, relying on these alone is not enough to effectively strike an aircraft carrier fleet."

Zhang Zhaoxin's words immediately aroused great interest among the crowd, and they wanted to learn more about this ship.

Following him to the front deck, Zhang Zhaoxin began to introduce again.

"You see, this is a 24-unit universal missile launch system, which is equipped with a new and very powerful air strike capability."

"Using the advanced radar on the ship, it can simultaneously track and lock 24 out of targets for attack."

"Of course, these pits can also be loaded with anti-ship missiles, which can be launched at once to carry out a saturation attack on enemy ships, leaving them with no way to fight back!"

"Four quad-mounted anti-ship missile systems are installed amidships."

"In addition, when this ship is performing air defense missions, all missiles can be replaced with air defense missiles..."

"In addition, it is equipped with a high-performance low-frequency passive towed array sonar and a torpedo launcher, which can perform anti-submarine missions when necessary..."

Everyone's heads were about to explode when they heard Zhang Zhaoxin introducing all the performance features like a treasure trove.

However, the military experts they brought with them were extremely shocked and almost began to doubt the true combat capability of this ship.

These data are really freaking scary.

So much so that they all wanted to personally verify the true combat capability of this ship.

They were actually very helpless, as they were clearly standing on the deck of the ship, but they were unable to infer the true situation of the ship.

It is difficult to find similar weapons and equipment on other warships, so there is no reference.

They are not fools, so they can naturally see that the warships of the Longxia Navy have already formed a scale and become systematic, with their own obvious characteristics and style, and possess strong Longxia tribal characteristics.

"Dear delegates and colleagues, I forgot to introduce its radar just now. It is the eye of a warship."

"It naturally needs to be extremely bright, right? That's why we developed the Trinity Radar independently!"

"This radar can effectively detect distances up to 138 kilometers!"

These words made everyone at the scene gasp.

At this moment, except for the representatives of a few tribes with strong navy, such as the White Bear Tribe and the Eagle Tribe, who were still able to remain calm, the representatives of other tribes could no longer sit still.

The radar detection range is over 138 kilometers, which is far higher than the radar detection range of the most advanced warships in service of their tribe.

There is also a 24-barrel vertical launch system at the bow, which is even more interesting. It directly makes the combat power of this warship close to the active warships of the most developed tribes on Blue Star, and even exceeds most Western tribes.

If used in conjunction with early warning aircraft in the sky, the combat effectiveness of this battleship will be further exerted.

Of course, Zhang Zhaoxin would not tell them that the 052B in the hands of the Longxia Navy has a longer detection range and more powerful performance.

"Colonel Zhang, you've introduced so much, can someone give us a real test?"

"It's just a target practice or something, to see what the specific situation is."

At this time, some military experts could not wait to put forward their request.
"Of course you can. This is the next part we have prepared for you today, the live-fire target test of the warship's specific performance."

Zhang Zhaoxin nodded with a smile, and then led everyone to the main control room.

After entering the main control room, Zhang Zhaoxin called the captain.

"Captain Zhao, we can set off now."

"Next, follow the plan."

Captain Zhao nodded: "Understood."

"Cast off the moorings and set sail."

Captain Zhao immediately gave the order to set off.

Accompanied by the roar of the engine, the 052B slowly sailed out of the dock in the bright autumn sunshine and accelerated towards the open sea.

When the warship entered the relevant test area, Captain Zhao reported: "Colonel Zhang, everything is ready and we can start at any time."

"Then let's get started."

"Yes!"

Captain Zhao immediately began to execute according to the plan.

In fact, Zhang Zhaoxin and others had already made detailed arrangements for the relevant matters, and now all we have to do is to execute them according to the plan.

All the representatives and military experts from various tribes stared wide-eyed at the operations of the sailors on the warship and the various relevant data appearing on the radar screen.

As a result, the originally spacious control room became extremely crowded.

However, these tribal representatives were very smart. They all chose to stand at the back, allowing their tribe's military experts and other professionals to stay at the front.

"Deploy moving targets and conduct naval gun target practice first."

Zhang Zhaoxin glanced at the schedule in his hand and directly issued the first instruction.
