Glorious Mission 1937

In the evening, when Chen Feng returned to the small building, Yan Changxi had already prepared a sumptuous meal, but it was all fish, shrimp and seafood, and there was also a bottle of red wine.

During the meal, Chen Feng told Yan Changxi about the content of today's meeting, and at the same time told her some precautions.Of course, Chen Feng also gave Yan Changxi the genetic optimization solution that he had already prepared.

When Chen Feng said that these bottles of liquid can increase the pregnancy rate, Yan Changxi's face suddenly turned red, thinking of the madness last night, she was even more shy.This night is naturally extremely fragrant, but it is not enough to be humane to outsiders.

On October 10, the second batch of transport planes arrived in Jayapura. This time, they transported a whole regiment of infantry and a large number of weapons and equipment. In addition, Chen Feng appointed the army commander-in-chief Wang Hansheng, deputy commander Li Gang, chief of staff Wei Guohua and others. It's all here too.

On the same day, the U.S. government sent a telegram, saying that the first batch of warships had all completed sea trials and were ready for delivery. They informed Chen Feng to send someone to receive them as soon as possible.

After receiving the telegram, Chen Feng was overjoyed and immediately ordered Lieutenant Colonel Wu Shun, the chief of staff of the Nanyang Navy in the United States, to rush to Los Angeles and San Francisco to receive the warships. The navy of the Nanyang Territory urgently transported a group of naval officers and soldiers to the United States.

根据美国政府发来的电报称，这次交付的军舰里共有49艘，其中埃塞克斯级舰队航母2艘、博格级护航航母2艘、新奥尔良级重型巡洋舰3艘、亚特兰大级轻型巡洋舰8艘、埃瓦茨级护航驱逐舰8艘、坎农级护卫舰10艘、鱼雷艇12艘、扫雷舰1艘、布雷舰1艘、潜艇2艘。

With the addition of these 49 new-style warships, Chen Feng's navy finally looks like it.Especially with the addition of two large aircraft carriers and two escort aircraft carriers, Chen Feng is confident that as long as he goes through a period of running-in training and cooperates with advanced combat technology, even his naval officers and soldiers are inferior to the Japanese Navy in terms of quality and combat experience. The United Fleet, but it will definitely have the power to fight.

Moreover, Chen Feng knew well that at the beginning of World War II, the navies of all countries in the world still relied on battleships with huge cannons as the main force, advocating the tactics of large-caliber, large-tonnage, and high-firepower. Taking off and landing reconnaissance aircraft and attack aircraft that have not yet proven their power, the strategy and tactics of carrier aviation and its role are still under theoretical debate.Therefore, the aircraft carrier is actually a large and useless warship in the eyes of many officers.

certainly.There are reasons for this realization.Because the aircraft technology at that time was not up to standard, the aircraft had a short range, limited ammunition capacity, and the accuracy of air-dropped bombs was extremely poor.Sometimes a dozen fighter planes chasing a warship may not be able to sink it.Even sometimes it took a long time to hit an aerial bomb without hitting the target.Therefore, the navies of various countries do not attach great importance to aircraft carriers, which is why the United States is only willing to sell Chen Feng aircraft carriers, but not battleships.

However, the trend in the development of naval tactics is that the air force wins.It is the product of the perfect combination of aircraft carriers and carrier-based fighters. When fighter-bombers flood the sky, and when super bombs of thousands or tens of thousands of pounds fall on local warships, the huge and heavy battleship is actually a moving target. , the decline was unstoppable, which was why Chen Feng did not force the United States to sell him battleships at that time.

The reason why Japan dared to brazenly launch the Pacific War was not the few aircraft carriers, but the dozen or so large battleships, as well as the Yamato and Musashi super battleships under construction. They could not solve the performance of the fighters, let alone know The air force won the battle, so Chen Feng was not afraid of the Japanese in the subsequent naval battles.

As we all know, there are many factors for victory in a battle, but the most important thing is not personnel and weapons, but reasonable tactics, otherwise a powerful army will be wiped out.The same is true for the navy. It is conceivable what the result will be when thousands of J-5, J-6 and strategic bombers appear on the head of the Japanese navy fleet.

In the past, Chen Feng only had good fighter planes but no good sea airports, so it was impossible to talk about the running-in of the navy. Now that he has 4 aircraft carriers at once, Chen Feng can flex his muscles.Especially the Essex-class fleet aircraft carrier, which is Chen Feng's long-cherished war weapon, and it is also the most suitable aircraft carrier for J-5 and J-6 in Chen Feng's mind.

The Essex-class aircraft carrier is the largest number of first-class aircraft carriers ever built by the U.S. Navy, and it is also the main combat force of the U.S. Navy in the Pacific War.Historically, the United States only planned to build this kind of aircraft carrier in June 1940. It planned to build 6 ships in 1940 and 11 ships in 1941.But because of Chen Feng's appearance, the U.S. government used the Essex-class aircraft carrier as a warship to trade with Chen Feng, so the production of this aircraft carrier started early.

In addition, the design and construction of the Essex-class aircraft carrier began as early as 1937, so the United States happened to have two semi-finished products for experiments. Therefore, under the urging of Chen Feng, the two semi-finished products were quickly ordered by the US government to be built into new warships Sold to Chen Feng, so the two Essex-class aircraft carriers will be completed in just one year.

埃塞克斯级航空母舰标准排水量27200吨，满载排水量34880吨。舰长（全长）265.79米，飞行甲板长262.13米；舰宽28.35米，飞行甲板宽29.26米；平均吃水7米。机库长174米、宽21米、高5.4米。

The propulsion device of the Essex-class aircraft carrier is 8 boilers, 4 geared steam turbines, the output power of the main engine is 15 shaft horsepower, 4 shafts, and the speed is 32.7 knots.The fuel load is 6300 tons, and the endurance is 15000 nautical miles and 15 knots.

埃塞克斯级航空母舰安装有12门双联装127毫米口径高平两用炮，用以对付远距离目标。另外每舰装有8座四联装40毫米“博福斯”炮，共32门；并装有46门单管20毫米“厄利孔”高炮。

按照设计要求，埃塞克斯级航空母舰可以装载2个战斗机中队（36架）、1个侦察轰炸机中队（18架）；1个俯冲轰炸机中队（18架）、1个鱼雷轰炸机中队（18架）、1架担任联络任务的俯冲轰炸机，共计91架飞机；另有9架备用。埃塞克斯级航空母舰标准编制员额比设计预定的人数多50%，总计3442人，其中军官382人，士兵3060人。

It’s really a good thing. Just after the production of the new fighter jets, the port has been negotiated. Now there are even new warships. It seems that my naval strategy is still very successful. When the points on hand are free, I will exchange them for a few ships. The large warships of later generations are used as flagships, and they are being exchanged for a submarine production line, and the naval fleet formed by then will be awesome.

Chen Feng handed over the affairs of the navy to Chang Zhiguo and others. On November 11, Chen Feng took out the small port construction order he had obtained before in a natural deep water area in the north of Port Moresby. A port that accommodates 2 million tons of cargo ships suddenly appeared in Port Moresby.

At the same time, on a wasteland in the Kutubu area, a small oil field and oil refining equipment were built. The oil field construction order Chen Feng already had it, because there was no suitable place in the country, so it has not been used.As for the specific location of the Kutubu Oilfield, Chen Feng spent 500 points to exchange it with the system. He knew that Papua New Guinea had two large oil fields with reserves of 4 million barrels, but he didn't know the exact location, so he asked the system Ask for help.

But just like this, he paid a full 500 points, which made Chen Feng feel distressed for a while.

After dealing with these matters, Chen Feng returned to Saibei, where there were many things waiting for him to deal with.

It was already November 11th when we returned to Saibei. The first batch of 4 Jews had already arrived in Ulaanbaatar, and they were expected to arrive in Saibei on the 5th. How to arrange these people must be carefully considered. It is necessary to send these people directly to Nanyang Receive it, or send it after a while.

Considering that there is only one airport in the Nanyang Territory, which can take off and land at most 40 planes at a time, Chen Feng had no choice but to order the Saibei Province to place those Jews in Guisui City first, and wait until the new airport over there is almost completed. Besides, Chen Feng also received information The telegram sent by the department said that the Jews were tortured one by one, pale and emaciated, and they must take good care of themselves, otherwise they would not be able to do anything at all.

Chen Feng still has some concerns about the immigrants, that is, whether it is inappropriate to send millions of Jews to New Guinea. None of them, this is definitely not a good thing for the future development of Nanyang Territory. After much deliberation, Chen Feng decided that half of the first batch of 100 million Jews would stay in the Northern Territory and the other half would move to Nanyang Territory. In the Nanyang Territory, it is necessary to ensure that the Han people can reach one-third of the total population, so as to ensure the stability and security of the territory.

In addition, there will soon be 1 regular troops and a large number of air forces going to Nanyang Territory, which will inevitably weaken the combat effectiveness of the eighth war zone, so these troops must be replenished. Chen Feng is considering whether to recruit some Jews to join the army, but after thinking about it dismissed the idea.Now that the Jews have not yet integrated into the entire Eighth War Zone, such a hasty call for those people to join the army is bound to cause dissatisfaction among the Jews. Let's wait and see. Besides, the results of the last expansion have not been fully digested, and it is indeed a bit too hasty to recruit new soldiers. (To be continued..)
