The Chinese Empire has always been a typical example of following the rules in the development of aircraft carriers. At this stage, there is absolutely no China among the world's major aircraft carrier countries. The seven major aircraft carriers in the world are all modified from war patrols and cruisers, especially Japan's Chishen and Kaga.

Lexington and Saratoga, the United States are all aircraft carriers converted from 40,000-ton battlecruisers, and enjoy exemption treaties on the limit on the maximum displacement of aircraft carriers of up to 2.75 million British tons.

The first Zhenyuan-class aircraft carrier built by the Empire in 1924 is basically a replica of the Lexington, and it was also built on the basis of reference to the US and Japanese aircraft carriers. In this process, Emperor Song did not basically correct the situation except for strongly supporting the development of the aircraft carrier.

Make any constructed text/text

But before that, the empire had built two test aircraft carriers, Fuzhou Shipbuilding and Northeast Shipbuilding, and conducted a lot of tests on the combat methods of the aircraft carriers. On the basis of the Lexington aircraft carrier, a lot of detailed improvements were made, and the

The first aircraft carrier was officially built in 1924.

The Empire's classification of naval ships is based on the A series of water ships, the B series of underwater ships is the B, the OQ series is the battleship level mark, the 02 series is the aircraft carrier level mark, the 03 is the cruiser, the 04 is the destroyer, and the 05 is the frigate. The submarines are divided into large, medium and small

The third-class, the large submarine is the Bo1 series, the medium-sized submarine is the BC2 series, and the small one is the B03 series.

In terms of naming warships, the battleships were named after ancient Jiuzhou, the first one was named after the Sinian magnitude, and the aircraft carrier was named as the main naming method, and it could also be named in other special meanings. The first one was named especially the Zhenyuan.

The standard displacement of the Zhenyuan aircraft carrier is 2.55 million British tons, and the maximum speed can reach 33 knots, because this class of aircraft carriers has been greatly improved based on the two test aircraft carriers of Fuzhou Shipbuilding and Northeast Shipbuilding. Compared with this

The period is relatively mature, and it is expected that the two Haiqi-class ships will continue to be built on the basis of this in the future.

Zhenyuan and Haiqi have been long-term flagships of the Chinese Navy for a long time. It is not easy for the Chinese Navy to have the scale and level of today. This is also a sign that hopes that all soldiers of the army will cherish the present.

Marshal Xiafei's inspection cycle in the Chinese Empire lasted for more than a month. It was during this period that the resolution of China and France to deepen alliance cooperation was basically determined. At the end of May 1925, at the suggestion of Marshal Xiafei,

French President Dumeg personally arrived in China to visit and signed a formal signing of China-France relations in Beijing and positioned China-France relations as a truly solid permanent alliance. With the formal signing of this two-year treaty, China-France

Cooperation between them has also entered a new stage.

This may be the real good thing.

The reason why the empire wanted to continue to maintain alliance relations with France, which was no longer as strong as its own, was that the competition in the world was too fierce, and the United States did not have the possibility of formal alliance with any country. China wanted to compete with the British and Japanese alliance.

France's alliance was an inevitable choice; secondly, for Emperor Song Biao, he had no intention of avoiding World War II.

If the world will inevitably break out in ten years, with China's national strength and strength at that time, there is no need to watch it on the wall, otherwise it will only harm itself. The best choice is to hit the opponent hard from the beginning

, use war to prove the true rise of the Chinese nation.

In general, France needs to maintain the Sino-French alliance more than China. At this stage, it is almost the weakest and most difficult period in France's history. In Europe, it faces competitive pressure from Britain, Germany and Italy, and its relationship with the United States is not good.

The two countries have great conflicts of interest in the Caribbean Sea and South America. The conflict between the South Pacific and the United States and Japan is becoming increasingly fierce, while France's military and economic strength is constantly declining.

Before World War I, France was the largest usury country in the world. By manipulating financial hegemony, it could still maintain its international status. After World War I, with the loss of financial hegemony, this was completely out of place.

With the collapse of the most important alliance, the Tsarist Russian Empire, if the Sino-French alliance cannot be maintained, France is the most isolated country in the world. It has competitive relations with almost every powerful country in the world, and even its relations with Spain are extremely

Stiff, it can be said to be attacked from all sides.

So in China, the concessions made by France are very huge.

First, except for Vietnam and French India, France sold the Pan-Pacific colonies to the Chinese Empire, symbolically retaining Cliberton Island on the east coast of Mexico; second, France sold northern Costa Rica and surrounding areas.

The island was resold to the Chinese Empire.

These regions actually have little value, and China itself does not have such a requirement. However, in order to restore its own capital advantage as soon as possible, France requires China to significantly reduce debts. China definitely disagrees, and finally reached such a special agreement, French symbolism

Selling some colonies in a sexual manner can just evacuate the Pacific region, and also giving China some suitable supply points in the Indian Ocean. For example, the Port of Anchiranana in northern Costa Rica is a world-class natural port. The Empire set up an Indian Ocean navy here.

The base is also a very good choice.

The empire itself is also eager to develop fisheries, and the fishery resources in the entire Indian Ocean are still very rich. With this basis, as long as fishery investment is increased, the long-term yield will be very good.

The colonies sold by France are not very valuable, but China has to pay a high price of 1 pound and faces a fierce confrontation with Japan throughout the Pacific region.

It is not cost-effective to calculate carefully. The real biggest concession made by France is that in the terms of the strategic alliance, it stipulates that the Sino-French dual-release colonies enjoy equal trade and investment benefits, which will be of great benefit to both parties, but in the overall situation

It is still more beneficial to China.

France's tax revenue is very high, and the colonies are basically closed and traded with France only. After the agreement was reached, China was equivalent to joining the economic circle and enjoying the same low tax treatment, although France also enjoys the same as China.

The trade treatment of Chinese colonies such as Central Asia, the Middle East, and the North Korea in the north is the protection country, but France is not an industrial exporter after all, and its status as a capital exporter was also greatly weakened after World War I. The two sides are equal, so it must be

China has a big advantage.

There is still a lot of opposition to this matter in France. It is not easy to finally reach this alliance treaty.

After China and France continued to maintain the alliance treaty, Britain and Japan also strengthened the cooperation between the two countries. As China accelerated its shipbuilding speed, Japan was also forced to increase its cruiser construction plan. In fact, China and Japan

Cruisers are not cheap, especially armored cruisers like Fushun-class, which are basically quasi-battleships with small main guns. They can be changed into battleships at any time by changing their main guns, and from the very beginning they go directly to the battleships.

The cost of Fushun-class ship is 70,000 yuan. The cost of similar heavy cruisers in Japan is roughly equivalent. Both sides added four ships in one breath, so the Sino-Japanese naval competition has been ignited again since 1925. For Japan, this is maintained.

The competition will cost an additional 50 million yen of naval funds every year.

China has no major problems. The naval military expenditure has increased to 5.2 billion yuan, accounting for 85 of the central government's total fiscal budget. Japan is forced to expand back to 30rk Wangyou again, which means there is no signing.

There is really no need for Japan to do this, because at the end of World War I, the comparison of the economic scale between China and Japan was 785:1, which was a very special stage. In 1925, Japan was defeated again and the comparison of the economic scale between China and Japan expanded again.

The gap between 911, and the Japanese economy is not as prosperous as before. Although China's mining and agricultural products exports have declined due to the decline in commodities and global prices, China's economic growth rate is still faster than Japan.

Ah, the overall situation is much better than that of Japan.

After all, China is not the Qing Dynasty in the past. Under such a big gap, Japan insists on copying the comparison between the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 and continuing to firmly believe that it can defeat the Chinese navy. This is really unwise.

Of course, Japan also has its own reasons, because its national economy is basically driven by military industry. The short-term stimulation effect of increasing military expenditure on the economy is very obvious, but in the long run, I can't say that you have stimulated the economy in the past few years.

After that, we relied on naval advantages to start war with China.

Although the expenditures of China and Japan are not much different, the scale of China's expenditures in the army and the air force is also very amazing. The army's military expenditure has been maintained at a level of 3.5 billion yuan per year, while the air force's military expenditure was 1 yuan in 1925.

There are still several very special problems in the Sino-Japanese military expenditure. First, a large part of the scientific research expenditure of China-Japan expenses is expensed by the Cabinet Ministry of Industry and Science and Technology; second, there are two invisible wings behind the Sino-Japan expenses. One is

Trust capital of Xinhua Company and China International Trust and Investment Company; the second is the military reclamation system.

The scale of the military expenditure surplus trust management of the Central Military Department of the Chinese Empire is very large, and the scale of China's military reclamation system is also very large. These two points are completely incomparable to Japan.

Therefore, it is the most unwise choice for Japan to engage in military spending competitions with China, unless Japan is ready to expand to a level and fight a war with China, and then force China to cede its territory and pay a huge amount of compensation like the Sino-Japanese War of 1895.

How is the compensation possible?

Japan is a very smart country, but it is also amazing when it has low IQ.

After all, the times are completely different. Song Biao did not take the naval competition between China and Japan too seriously. In the summer of 1q25, he continued to take the royal family to the Lushan Summer Palace for vacation, and held a very good meeting in Lushan.

Interesting Sino-foreign friendship meeting.

The conference invited foreign experts and consultants working in China to award them the Medal of Honor of the Empire and the Medal of Imperial Friendship Memorial, as well as the qualification of a lifetime academician of the Royal Academy of Sciences. The most famous one here is Nikola Tesla.

Mr. Tesla has worked in China for one year. In these fourteen years, he has made more than 20 very important outstanding contributions, such as China's electrical railway engineering, large-scale water conservancy power station engineering, radio communication engineering, electronics

Radar engineering, electronic tube computer engineering, v high-voltage transmission engineering, regional power grid engineering, synchronous motor, and efficient AC motor engineering. In these projects, Dr. Nikola Tesla has played a very critical role in the electrical railway,

He is one of the most important project chief engineers in large hydropower stations, regional power grids and regulatory AC motors.

The role of these projects in promoting China's development is very long-term, and there will be no particularly obvious effect within four or five years. After ten or twenty years, the gap will be very obvious. For example, in the machine tool industry, it is impossible to have a first-class motor without first-class motors.

First-class machine tools.

In addition to twenty years of deep cultivation, the rapid progress in the motor field is also a very direct reason for the rapid development of China's machine tool industry in recent years and its ability to compete with the United States and virtues worldwide.

Except for Tesla, most of the recipients of the first-class medals of honor come from Germany's metallurgy, chemical industry, machinery, electrical, power, ships and internal combustion engine fields, especially Dr. Fritz Harber, in order to avoid war criminals.

After investigation, he transferred to China through the Netherlands after World War I.

In the past few years, Dr. Haber's main work has continued to study the synthesis of ammonia and coal chemical industry. China is now the largest nitrogen fertilizer producer in the world, and plays a very important and huge role in agricultural growth. Many of the contributions here are to be made.

Thanks to Fritz Harbour.

Fritz Harber also has a very important special value, which is that it allows China to directly obtain most of the chemical weapons development data and technology in World War I.

These people have very important value in the empire and they also enjoy very good treatment. Including in the field of scientific research, the empire's expenditure in this area has almost no bottom line. As long as the experts have appropriate projects, after passing the approval, the government, the university

And the company will provide very generous sponsorship, and there will definitely be no problem in protecting patented technology and sharing of profits.

Many technologies are really not worth much money in Belgium, a small country like the Netherlands, but in China, many small technological breakthroughs will bring considerable benefits, such as the technical patents of the base fire formula of the CR rifle bullet and the new formula of the granular ammunition.

Including the patent for low-carbon steel copper-clad ammunition, it looks very small, but the benefits are actually amazing.

So by 1925, more than 300,000 foreign technical experts and engineers worked in China, and about 250,000 experts with doctoral degrees from foreign universities were in the scale of about 250,000. This group was truly high-end talents, many of them were

He served as a professor at a Chinese university.

Therefore, some people say that as long as you can learn German and French well within the empire, you will not have to worry about not having good schools. Almost every provincial university has at least one German campus, or French campus, and the Russian campus of Northern University.

It is more common, and Southern University has more English campuses.

After so many years of persistence, the empire itself has cultivated a huge scale of talents, especially in the fields of geology, metallurgy, chemical industry, machinery, electrical, agriculture and animal husbandry, textiles, and ships. These are all pillar fields of China.

To be honest, the empire in 1925 is definitely much stronger than the early stages of the Republic, and there are also many real geniuses.

As long as China can persist until the watershed in 192, there will be basically no significant gap in total talent volume with Britain and France. Wait until 35 or 40 years, as long as China insists on paying attention to education and scientific research,

It is not difficult to surpass Britain and France, or even the United States.

Looking back at Japan, it is not very meaningful for Japan to continue to adopt this hostile attitude with China. We cannot always look at China from the perspective of ten years ago or even thirty years ago. After the Meiji Restoration ended,

Since the Taisho year, the vision and mind of Japanese politicians have gradually shrunk in this militaristic expansion. Compared with Hirofumi Ito, the new generation of politicians have higher knowledge levels, but their mindset and political skills are far-reaching.

It is worse than the next generation.

Every summer vacation in Lushan is a tradition of the royal family. It is both a job and a very interesting thing. You can often meet some world-renowned people in the summer palace. Many people do not work in China, but the royal family will also be born from

Special respect, the royal family invited them to take a vacation to the Lushan Summer Palace.
