    "Commissioner, do you mean to increase the configuration of battleships?"

    Chen Houfu asked cautiously, because all senior officials in China knew that the two ministers of the Navy, Chen Houfu and Shen Chengzhang, controlled the Navy, but they were contradictory.

    Chen Houfu is a staunch aircraft carrier faction and is also the mainstream intention of the Chinese Navy.  Battleships were the dominant force in the navy in the past, but now they are in decline. Judging from these many naval battles, it is inevitable that aircraft carriers will replace battleships.

    In these naval battles, battleships did not play a big role.

    That¡¯s why Chen Houfu asked cautiously now. He was afraid that Zhou Weiguo was here to do his job.

    At any time, the superior does not like to have a subordinate who is always against him.

    "Yes! I do want to increase your battleship configuration. From the perspective of landing battles, battleships use main guns to support landing troops better than heavy cruisers. And in the Songhu Anti-Japanese War that took place in our country a few years ago, Neon's  You know the power of the battleship's main gun.

    If we assign some battleships to some fleets, I believe they can play a big role in the landing war.  "

    Chen Houfu moved his lips after hearing this, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he held back.

    Now that Zhou Weiguo's majesty is growing, no one dares to openly refute him anymore.

    "Houfu, you seem to have something to say? Just say what you want to say without any scruples. I'm here to listen to your opinion today!"

    Zhou Weiguo said with a big wave of his hand.

    "Since the commission said so, let me put it bluntly. Building a battleship, especially our country's Tianshan-class battleship, requires a lot of money and manpower. But its final function is only to provide firepower assistance to the landing force. This  Isn't it too hasty? Moreover, the cost is completely out of proportion to its function.

    We can build one Tianshan-class battleship to build two or even two and a half aircraft carriers.  If we use the funds from building Tianshan-class battleships to build more aircraft carriers, I believe the effect will not be much worse than that of battleships, and the cost-effectiveness will be higher.  "

    Chen Houfu expressed his doubts. In his opinion, it is completely impractical to build battleships now.  A battleship encounters an aircraft carrier at sea.

    If the distance between the two sides is not within ten nautical miles, the battleship will become a target. The dive bombers and torpedo planes on the aircraft carrier are enough to cause great damage to the battleship. If the pilots are more elite, it will not even be possible to send it to the bottom of the sea.  impossible.

    "Haha! I understand what you mean, but I will directly allocate the battleships to your navy and will not let you waste military expenditures on manufacturing them."

    Zhou Weiguo smiled and said, money must be spent wisely. Although China's economic strength is now strong and the country is not short of money, it cannot waste money on building battleships.

    Besides, the system points in Zhou Weiguo¡¯s own system have already exceeded 200 billion.  He now belongs to a truly wealthy family.

    The system¡¯s daily growth points exceed 100 million every day. With such a huge territory, a booming economy, and the world¡¯s top three industrial capabilities, the system points are growing crazily.

    "Uh? Okay! Since the committee has been decided, there is no need for me to refute."

    Hearing that Zhou Weiguo wanted to allocate warships himself, he said nothing more.

    "Next, I will allocate a certain amount of battleships to the Tianzhu Yang Fleet and the Pacific Fleet. For now, I am planning to allocate four Tianshan class battleships to the Tianzhu Yang Fleet and eight Tianshan class battleships to the Pacific Fleet.  Battleship.¡±

    Chen Houfu licked his lips. To be honest, he had always wanted to know where Zhou Weiguo got so many battleships and aircraft carriers, but he never dared. Anyone in a superior position has his own secrets.

    These secrets are unknown. If anyone wants to know these secrets, death is likely to be waiting for him. This is why Chen Houfu has always wanted to know, but has never dared to inquire. If he  Asking around, maybe he couldn't get up after falling asleep that night.

    But he was once again shocked by Zhou Weiguo's generosity, and twelve Tianshan-class battleships suddenly appeared.

    He knew that the reason why so many battleships were allocated to the Pacific Fleet was because the Pacific Fleet would have to fight a landing battle with the United States on the Pacific battlefield next.

    By then, I¡¯m afraid it won¡¯t be one landing battlefield, but may be multiple places. Eight Tianshan-class battleships will be enough.

     "Haha! Houfu, don't look at me like this. Since we have added battleships, I will naturally add aircraft carriers. Judging from the current situation, the next place where we need large-scale operations should be in the South Pacific.  .

    So I plan to add ten Yanzhou-class aircraft carriers to the Pacific Fleet and five Yanzhou-class aircraft carriers to the North Sea Fleet.  The East China Sea Fleet, Southern Fleet and Tianzhu Ocean Fleet remain unchanged for the time being.  "

    Some people say that as a subordinate, it is very important to guess the intentions of the superior.

    If you speculate, you may be promoted to make a fortune, and the official transportation all the way.

    If you don¡¯t speculate on your superiors¡¯ intentions, you might just stay where you are, or even give way to others who want to move up.

    Although Chen Houfu is a typical soldier, he also came from the warlord period, so he will naturally speculate on his intentions.

    Just like Zhou Weiguo¡¯s naval expansion plan, it is obviously targeted.

    "Commissioner, are you planning to use troops from the North Pacific to attack Citigroup?"

    The jurisdiction of the North Sea Fleet is the North Pacific area, and their patrol range is also in this area.  The strength of the North Sea Fleet was not very strong before.

    There are only two Tianshan-class battleships and four aircraft carriers, including two Yanzhou-class aircraft carriers and two Jizhou-class aircraft carriers.

    Now that five Yanzhou-class aircraft carriers have been added at once, it is obvious that they will use troops against Citigroup from the North Pacific.

    "Well! Come here!"

    Zhou Weiguo nodded and got up from the sofa and walked to the world map in front of the combat hall.

    Chen Houfu and Yang Jie also followed Zhou Weiguo.

    "Baton!"

    A staff officer handed the baton to Zhou Weiguo's hand.

    "You see, the main area where we are currently confronting Citi is in the South Pacific. And the South Pacific is also the area with the most islands. There are many islands in this area. Both Citi and our country want to occupy these islands. Whoever occupies these islands can do so.  Get each springboard and use the springboard as a base to attack the opponent's homeland.

    But there is one place we have all overlooked, and that is the North Pacific.  "

    Zhou Weiguo¡¯s baton fell on Beipingyang, and everyone looked towards Beipingyang.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
