"It's no problem to expose the power drum. ←,." Xu Jun stood on the side of mk206 and looked down at the huge drum placed in the ground well.

The navy expanded a hole in the air defense deck, and then welded a bomb storage box in it. The hydraulic power drum of the rapid-fire gun was placed in the box body, and the power lines were lined up on the box wall. The navy also installed folding booms on the side of the fence of this platform. After being opened upright, the drum can be quickly hoisted as a whole, which is convenient for the gunner to repair and load.

"Because this gun is still being debugged, in order to facilitate disassembly and maintenance, so there is no bulletproof top cover, we have prepared a 20 mm thick armor plate welded cover, and now we are processing sliding guides The tank can be moved and opened and closed in this way, which is very flexible. We are also planning to install an ammunition storage station here. Each mk206 is equipped with four spare ammunition drums, each of which stores 700 rounds of ammunition, with a pulley guide. We have tested it. Four trained loaders can complete the drum replacement within 15 seconds." Colonel Zaft seriously introduced Xu Jun to the side.

Speaking of it, Captain Zaft actually has some personal views on this weapon. The Green Gun is not new, it was all the rage in the era of armored ships, and it has almost become the standard configuration, which is specially used to shoot and support. Surface targets such as pole mine boats or exposed sailors on enemy decks. The complicated structure and weight have always been its flaws, and it was eventually eliminated by lighter and cheaper rapid-fire weapons such as Maxim.

Unexpectedly, the Ordnance Bureau of the Headquarters even re-excavated this weapon. Although a new design was used and the output power was added, the overall structure still did not deviate from what it was half a century ago. Zaft still has some doubts about the new equipment that has not yet been finalized. He always feels that it is not as reliable as the time-tested single-barrel anti-aircraft guns.

However, the astonishing rate of fire of this artillery did indeed shock Colonel Zaft. The gunner can also change the rate of fire of the weapon by adjusting the output power, from 800 rounds per minute to 3,200 rounds per minute. He has never seen the artillery that can fire machine guns. At a standard rate of fire of 1,200 rounds per minute, the human ear can hardly distinguish the sound of each gun popping out of the barrel. Hear a huge beep like a storm.

No matter what the officers on board see, the crew have fallen in love with this weapon. They privately gave the gun a feminine nickname "Favna".

"The gap in reloading time can be compensated by increasing the number of artillery. After the test is finalized, two more doors can be considered on this platform. Then four more doors are installed on both sides of the front bridge, at least four on each side. The door mk206 serves as the last line of defense. I believe that no enemy aircraft in the world can break through the interception of this "Faffnier" barrage." Xu Jun confidently expressed his opinion to the captain. He carried the marshal's staff around the rapid-fire cannon for half a turn.

"In the future, more and more advanced weapons will be tested on the Bismarck. The Bismarck has a heavy responsibility. It is necessary to pay close attention to the training of officers and soldiers, and at the same time, we must do a good job of supply and logistics to ensure the morale and combat effectiveness of the troops." Xu Jun turned back and said to Redel.

"Of course, my head of state. Bismarck has always been at the top of the list, second only to submarines and minesweeper troops. We can guarantee that every soldier can get sufficient and high-quality supplies, and we have prepared a lot of sports and culture. At the event, the latest news documentary will be played every day, and an imported foreign movie will also be played every week." Reddell accompanied Xu Jun down the ramp to the air defense deck.

"Army soldiers also like movies imported from the United States. We signed an import agreement with American producers. Their films can enter the German market, provided that there is no political promotion content, and copies must be provided to Germany for free. Armed Forces," Xu Jun said as he walked along the deck in the direction of the stern, just past two huge main gun turrets. As soon as he turned his head, he saw Himmler and Wehrler standing at the stern fence and leaned over to look under the side of the ship.

"Mr. Minister and Mr. Chief of Staff, did you find anything interesting?" Redell asked with a smile as he approached the two conspirators.

William Flake failed to escape the cleansing, and the SS execution team blew the entire belt on him. The free German interior minister position was regarded as a reward by Xu Jun, and Himmler obtained the position he dreamed of three years earlier. Himmler now has several key positions and has full control of the German police and security system. As Xu Jun's transformation of the SS, the influence of the position of SS National Leader is being reduced. Himmler is well aware that the duties of police chief and interior minister will become more important in future government affairs.

Now the leader of the SS likes to call him Mr. Minister. Only his SS members continue to call him his national leader or director. There are of course an exception for a group of people, that is, Xu Jun and his personal team. They privately call him very casually. Himmler was so happy about it, because it showed that he had stepped into that small circle and was no longer an outsider.

"Oh, my head of state. Your Excellency Marshal, I'm betting with Himmler, what is that thing?" Weiler asked, pointing to the side of the ship.

"What is it?" Both Rydell and Xu Jun leaned over and looked at the side of the ship curiously, only to see that there was a steel pipe welded shelf extending diagonally to the sea.

"That is the stand for the spare rudder. If there is a problem with the rudder and it cannot be repaired at sea for a while. We can install a secondary rudder at this location to temporarily maintain the control of the ship. This is a command ordered by the head of state, Germany. Every large naval ship on the surface of the Navy will be equipped with this device." Redell said to Weiller with a smile.

"The German navy will encounter all kinds of accidents during ocean voyages, and it must be prepared for this. German ships are used to the cruiser-like tail in the design, which makes the structure here more fragile. We have no time to replace these designs. The defects can only be reinforced as much as possible, and at the same time, some remedial preparations will be made. These problems will no longer appear on the subsequent battleships, and the Gleasono has already reinforced these parts and replaced the new propellers. "Xu Jun extended his hand and flicked his finger. Disenhofen immediately pulled out a carton from his pocket, took a cigar out of it and handed it to the head of the head.

"My head, are you talking about propellers?" Weiller took the twenty-mark banknote offered by Himmler, looked down and stuffed it into his pocket.

"Under the proposal of the head of state, we carefully studied the propellers of the seized British and French warships and found that the efficiency of those propellers far exceeded our own existing propeller shape. Our knowledge in this regard still remains in the era of the last war. , The design scheme of the Jutland era is still used.

Those old-fashioned propellers have been outdated for a long time, and a lot of the power of the German warships was wasted in vain. Fortunately, the head of state reminded us, otherwise we will still continue this error. Now, based on the captured loot, we have combined with the ideas provided by the head of state to design a new paddle type. The Bismarck has been tested and the speed has been increased by three knots. This is enough to show that we have wasted the propeller problem before. How much power. "Ryder answered Weiller's question at the end.

The navy marshal has become numb to the endless miracles that surround the head of state. The apostle seems to be as omnipotent and omniscient as others have described. He has brought about earth-shaking changes to every proposal and design of the navy All the officers and men of the navy are watching, and Rydell can’t deny that he has cast his ground on the head of the body. He is very grateful that the battle was won by the apostle of God instead of Hitler. From various perspectives Therefore, the German Navy obtained an excellent leader and strong backing.

"The existing five-blade propeller is not the best paddle shape in my mind. We still need to increase our strength in this area. The headquarters has planned to build a large fluid power laboratory and mobilized experts from various fields. Carry out a more in-depth study." Xu Jun flicked soot at the outboard, he seemed to see something in the afterglow of his eyes, and quickly turned his head to look at the other side of the dock.

"Hey? Is that u1001? How is she in Kiel? I thought she was still in Hamburg." Xu Jun pointed to a dark gray painted submarine docked at the end of the pier, and asked Rader in surprise.

"1001 has completed the preliminary sea trial. She arrived at Kiel Port the day before yesterday, and she is going to load a new type of torpedo here, which is the type you propose to improve." Redell will not tell Xu Jun that this is what Deniz commissioned him. Specially arranged in order to be able to surprise this head of state.

The performance of this experimental submarine has made Deniz very satisfied. He has always wanted the head of state to go to the boat for a review. After all, this submarine is full of the head of the person's design.

"We won't go to the meeting room first, I must go to the submarine to see it. Marshal Redell, ordered to postpone the meeting until dinner, let people go to rest and wait for further notice." Xu Jun excitedly walked to Bismarck On the ramp of the stern, he can’t wait to take a closer look at the latest masterpiece of Blomfoss, a super electric boat that Xu Jun made on the basis of the famous uxxi submarine in history.
