New Staff of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Zhu Erdian took Rizhiyi and followed Raines to Qingdao Island. They wanted to see what the latest American warship looked like. Why was Raines so confident?

In fact, Raines didn't even know, but the country told him that he was strong. We had the latest battleship and it was over. He didn't know how new it was, but he would still be strong, and he was very strong, and he had no face at all. to Julian.

The 5th Marine Brigade, 6th Brigade, 1st Heavy Artillery Brigade, and 1st Engineer Brigade have completed the landing, and taking over the security, barracks and forts is the first priority, and then the fleet is divided into four squadrons, each with two warships . Two squadrons entered the port to rest, while the other two were patrolling outside. This was Wesley's order. Be careful of sneak attacks. Small men have this habit.

William Benson obeyed, and the fleet's training was insufficient, and the response in war might not be fast enough, so he also strictly followed Wesley's instructions. With the German Navy on board the battleship, the four battleships parked in the port all have hull numbers, 101, 102, 103, and 104 in total, and the other four are patrolling the sea. This is the latest naming method of the US Navy.

Originally, I wanted Wesley, the designer, to name the battleship, but Wesley thought it was very troublesome, so he directly replaced it with a number, starting with the number 1 for the battleship, starting with the number 2 for the heavy cruiser, and so on.

Melwadik is a German navy colonel. He knows ships well. When he came to the port, he saw the fleet parked at the berth from a distance. "This is a Dreadnought-class battleship, but the layout has changed a lot."

"Yes, they are all arranged along the central axis, with a total of three fully enclosed turrets and triple-mounted main guns." William Benson didn't hide it. His purpose was to let the Germans know, although it was a little late.

"I really didn't expect that you, the United States, would have such a large battleship. Although it is not the largest, it seems to have a good combat effectiveness and may not necessarily lose to the British."

"The British? They are not our opponents. In the age of broadside engagement, do they have the firepower of that warship and can compare to our battleships?"

"This is not true. Although it adopts a full-heavy artillery structure, the distribution is different from yours. Your structure is more compact, and even the number of chimneys is less than one. It's a great design."

"Go up and have a look!"

After the Germans visited, there was no way for them to pass on the news. After all, they were disarmed, and they had to become prisoners. William Benson began to train the fleet. Zhu Erdian and Ri Zhiyi came to Qingdao.

"General, welcome to China." Raines got off the train and saw William Benson at the front of the welcoming team.

"Mr. Minister has worked hard." The pun meant not only all the way to Qingdao, but also the dealings before the arrival of the American fleet.

"This is what I should do. Let me introduce to you. This is the British Minister, Mr. Julian, and this is the Japanese Minister, Mr. Hioki Yoshiki. They really want to come and see our American fleet. What do you think?"

"Oh, it's nothing. Although it is our cutting-edge battleship, all countries are welcome to come and communicate. Do you three take a break?" William Benson also didn't care, because the advantages of appearance cannot be kept secret, especially It's such a big battleship, so let them look at it directly, even if they look inside, they won't understand.

"Let's see it now!" Hioki became impatient. He was eager to know the combat effectiveness of the American warships, so that he could give the country information for reference.

William Benson took a group to the port in an Army jeep, which was produced by Wesley's car factory. For the new cars of the US military, Julian is not very good, because the United States has surpassed the United Kingdom in some aspects, which in his words is not in the interests of the British Empire.

When I came to the port, I saw four battleships headed by 105 quietly parked in the port, and there were other battleships in the distance. After the rest, the patrol unit was replaced.

Hikiji frowned and looked at the battleship in the distance. The first impression was the beautiful and neat layout. Although he only saw the side, he basically knew the whole picture. It must be a symmetrical layout. With a tonnage of more than 20,000 tons, they have only one King Kong-class battlecruiser that can fight against it. Is it possible?

Rikki became more and more silent, and Zhu Erdian was also silent. Although these battleships were nothing to the United Kingdom, they were indeed cutting-edge battleships in terms of layout and artillery, and it was very likely that they had already come to the front of the United Kingdom. Although Britain is not afraid of the number, but now the United Kingdom has no way to concentrate its main force against the Americans, although the Americans can use this fleet to stab Britain in the back.

This is the Pacific Fleet, and there is an Atlantic Fleet. How is the situation there? Julian has already reported to the country once, hoping that the country will pay attention to it, and at the same time collect intelligence of the US Navy.

The two boarded the No. 105 battleship with different purposes, and then they visited. The key areas were kept secret, but the other places were enough for them to see. The two got off the ship with a depressed look on their faces. After looking around, I saw the No. 205 heavy cruiser.

"General, is that a battle cruiser?" Hioki asked.

"No, that's our heavy cruiser."

"Heavy cruiser?" Nikki is not very clear about the difference, but the triple-mounted main gun, with a tonnage of nearly 20,000 tons, looks like a battle cruiser. Japan's fleet construction plan started a few years ago, but now I don't know how long it will take to complete. The only King Kong-class Battle Cruiser King Kong is a treasure of the Navy. It seems that there is no hope for Qingdao.

Zhu Erdian and Rizhiyi didn't even have a meal, so they boarded the train again and returned to the capital. They were eager to send a message to the country, and William Benson didn't care about their behavior, and directly hosted Raines to the Governor's Mansion.

"General, why did the domestic situation suddenly change?" Raines asked hurriedly after sitting down.

"Hehe, we have a genius. The warships you see and the weapons of the soldiers are all invented by him. He not only invented weapons, but also has more patents in his hands. He is also a genius in business. He was the one who persuaded the country to change its policy."

"Oh? There is such a person? It's amazing that he can persuade Congress to change course."

"Yeah, it's very powerful. He has been ridiculing those congressmen when he gave speeches in Congress, but now those congressmen and the consortium behind them are studying its speech, can you believe it?"
