    What Qi Yiming gave to the Ministry of National Defense was basically a suggestion. Of course, it was up to them to decide what the Ministry of National Defense would adopt and arrange. Later, Qi Yiming heard more or less about some of the new plans of the Ministry of National Defense, such as  Assigning Qi Yiming's killer power, the 3-pei digital mechanical force, which has been sent into the frozen space, to send out a foot phalanx, symbolizing the country's most powerful combat power. After some discussion, it was decided to add a sickle mecha phalanx to the equipment phalanx.  Although it is really difficult for the sickle mechas to keep pace, it is undoubtedly a unique thing for a group of neat, tall and powerful mechas to walk through Tiananmen and be inspected.

    There are still various ideas that need to be verified and finalized. For example, some people suggest that the 10th Division of the Blue Army, which is completely built along the lines of the Western army, send out a square formation. Opponents believe that the 10th Division even has the same military uniforms as the PLA.  The troops are different, and in order to imitate their opponents as much as possible, they don't pay attention to the drills of the formation at all. Let these Blue Army soldiers goose-step, which is very un-Blue Army in itself.

    However, seeing that the military parade is coming, the Army, Air Force, Second Artillery and even the Armed Police are all busy. In addition to sending some aircraft, marines, shore-to-ship missiles and the like, the Navy's most important combat ships are unable to participate in the parade, which makes everyone in the Navy unable to participate in the parade.  Very unhappy, but Tiananmen Square was built in the inland capital, not on the seaside.  This is really a pity for the Navy.

    To this end, Navy Commander Li Jing summoned a group of "little brothers" and rushed to Qi Yiming's territory, the Xiangshan Strategic Bureau Base, to learn from Qi Yiming personally.

    Li Jing and Qi Yiming are familiar with each other. When Qi Yiming and Jiang Huayan got married, they also participated in his wedding banquet. Moreover, Commander Li Jing has a more straightforward personality. When he came up, he pulled Qi Yiming and said: "Xiao Qi  Ah, I don¡¯t care what tricks you use, in short, in these forty years of Daqing, our navy cannot let other services excel, you have to stand up for us. "

    Qi Yiming suddenly frowned and said, "I can't move your navy's tens of thousands of tons of ships to Chang'an Street, can I?"

    Li Jing said slyly: "You, Xiao Qi, are resourceful and have the best means. I believe you will always have a solution."

    Naval reviews are usually not together with ordinary military parades. Most of them are held separately. Especially countries with large navies like Japan like to do this kind of thing.  Most military parades cannot be held along the coast. Even if the capital is along the coast, it is difficult to bring the army, navy and air force together for review. Therefore, most countries do not bring their navies with them in military parades.  Of course, there are exceptions, and that is the Asan family.  It is well known that Ah San likes military parades, and their military parades have a strong entertainment nature. Not only do the parade floats like to go with artillery and tanks, but they are also proud of the fact that a bunch of people are acrobatically piled on motorcycles.  The Asan military parade to review the navy was even more special. They used a truck to install a large transparent glass fish tank, and put a model of a ship floating on it. When the car moved, the water in the fish tank moved, making it look like the model was really sailing.

    Except for the great bureau chief who believes that this method is deliberately borrowed from, most serious soldiers and military fans cannot accept such a childish approach.

    Qi Yiming pondered for a moment, smiled slightly and said: "Well, okay, I will take over this matter. I will see if there is anything I can do, and I will give the navy a satisfactory answer in the end."

    Li Jing opened his mouth to continue to persuade Qi Yiming to help, but before he could make a sound, Qi Yiming responded in the affirmative and said, "You actually agreed?"

    "Haha, Commander Li, I naturally don't dare to be careless about your request."

    Li Jing curled his lips and said: "I thought you would refuse in every possible way, but this is good, it saves me a lot of trouble, and our navy is eagerly waiting for your clever move."

    Qi Yiming smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about these, but you have to start planning what to include in the Navy's ship review."

    Li Jing has obviously thought about this issue. He mused: "Although it is exciting to bring out two aircraft carriers, the Military Commission will definitely not agree."

    The aircraft carrier is the most important weapon of the country and the ultimate embodiment of a country's military force. When someone thinks of the U.S. military, their first reaction is that the U.S. military has more than ten aircraft carriers. The status of an aircraft carrier is definitely very important. However, judging from China's current situation, for the time being,  It's really not appropriate to show it to others.

    However, Qi Yiming has now basically completed the shipbuilding plan for the Navy. The current scale of the Navy has already raised eyebrows. In the next step, several major domestic shipyards in Jiangnan, Hudong, Huangpu, and Dalian will assume the main shipbuilding tasks of the Navy. In addition,  The Qingdao shipyard that Qi Yiming set up also has the ability to manufacture surface ships below medium-sized. The military ship has basically absorbed the manufacturing process of AIp submarines, and Bohai Heavy Industry has also completed the technical verification of building 09E-96 nuclear submarines.

    It can be said that Qi Yiming¡¯s true identity is to provide emergency response or lay foundations. The Navy still hopes to develop its own strength through more normal procurement and planning models in the future.  What's more, the total tonnage of the navy's main battleships now exceeds one million, and they are not in a hurry to build more Qi Yiming. They can't really take advantage of it.Get up.

    Qi Yiming also knew something about the development of several shipyards. Jiangnan was still at the forefront. It had previously built four 05 destroyers under the guidance and help of base engineers. They had been sold to South Korea and renamed Guangzhou.  Kaito King-class destroyer.  With this experience, Jiangnan Shipyard skipped the 06B and directly launched the 10,000-ton Type 056 cruiser project.  Due to the strong rise of the economy, there is no such thing as suppressing military spending in order to fight for the economy. Instead, military spending is basically maintained at around 0 to 0 GDPR, and the defense budget for this fiscal year has reached 2.6 billion yuan.  Excluding personnel costs and operational maintenance costs, 40% of the funds are used for military equipment research and replacement.  The Military Commission also adopts an equal-weighted phalanx, which is basically equally divided among the four major services, so the navy alone has a total expenditure of 2.6 billion yuan.

    It is simply unbelievable in the eyes of Li Jing and other military bosses. They were so poor that they could not lift the lid of the pot, but now they are so rich that they don¡¯t know how to spend their money.  Moreover, Qi Yiming's Red Alert Base provides the vast majority of active equipment. In fact, everything the navy uses to build it seems a bit redundant.  But this money was not spent, it was taken away by the superiors. In addition to investing more in scientific research, the Navy also launched some projects.

    The major plan of the Navy this fiscal year is for Jiangnan to obtain an order for two Type 056 guided missile cruisers, each worth B billion.  Qi Yiming felt that the price was somewhat exaggerated. After all, the purchasing power of the RMB these days has never been higher. One cent can buy two tea eggs in many places, and a TV costs less than 500 yuan.  Therefore, nearly B billion is already an astronomical figure that is unimaginable.

    However, this quotation is not much higher. Warships themselves are high value-added products. The military intends to support military enterprises. It is reasonable. The Ticonderoga-class cruisers of the US military are still slightly worse than 056 in terms of size, tonnage and firepower.  , the avionics level is a bit weaker, and the cost of a single ship has reached more than 900 million US dollars. In other words, a 056 manufactured in China is not even one-ninth of the Ticonderoga class.

    In addition to the two Type 056 cruisers, the Navy has also placed orders for two Type 0545 frigates each in Hudong and Huangpu. The price of a single ship is 2.4 billion yuan. A total of 10 ships have been placed at three shipyards: Wuchang Shipyard, Liaonan, and Qingdao.  The order for the Type 056 corvette costs 860,000 per ship.  Bohai Heavy Industry is building a 096 single ship at a price of 600 million yuan.

    All the above-mentioned ships are built in this country. Compared with other countries, the cost is so low that other countries can envy them to death.  For example, the Gwanggaeto King-class destroyer sold to South Korea costs more than 3 billion yuan per ship, which is enough to purchase four Type 056 cruisers.  On the one hand, China's production costs are low, but on the other hand, the severely undervalued exchange rate also plays a significant role.

    Then there is the Navy's order for a Type 62 nuclear-powered aircraft carrier from Dalian Shipyard. Compared with other types of ships, the technical difficulty and construction period of an aircraft carrier are much longer. Although the technical red alert engineers of the UU2 type have basically mastered it, and  The hardware facilities are also present, and there is nothing to verify.  Even so, the keel of the ship was laid at the beginning of this year, and it is expected that the ship will not be officially launched until 1991. Outfitting and sea trials will take at least more than a year, so the ship can enter active service as soon as 1993.

    By comparison, the speed at which Qi Yiming's Red Alert Base builds ships and puts them into service can be said to be abnormal.

    The self-built Type 62 nuclear-powered aircraft carrier costs 4 billion yuan. However, due to the long cycle, the 4 billion yuan is diluted over five fiscal years. This year, the navy only spent 20% of the construction cost, which is B billion.  .

    For the procurement of miscellaneous military auxiliary ships, naval aviation aircraft and other equipment, the Navy's annual procurement budget is about 9.4 billion yuan, and there is still -100 million yuan that has not been spent. The navy mainly invests this money in base construction and scientific research.  and talent training.

    If nothing else happens, the Navy will still get a large budget next year and will happily not know how to spend it.  Later, the U.S. Navy also had 10,000 personnel, operating ten nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, more than 30 large amphibious ships, more than 70 nuclear submarines, and nearly 100 main battle surface ships.  The current Navy also has an establishment of about 30,000 people. The difference is that the Marine Corps is not an independent branch. It is a subordinate existence in the Navy. There are also 40,000 to 50,000 people, so the actual strength of the Navy is only more than 200,000.

    These more than 200,000 people will operate a mother ship, an amphibious assault ship, an arsenal ship, 2 cruisers, 6 destroyers, 40 frigates, 6 corvettes, 2 dock landing ships, 40 conventionally powered submarines, 6  strategic nuclear submarine, -] attack nuclear submarine.  Among them, cruisers, destroyers, frigates, corvettes and attack nuclear submarines all have the possibility of continued expansion.

    Qi Yiming understands that with the current human resources of the navy, the fleet size can be further expanded.  However, it is already a huge expense for the base to provide logistical support to the navy. If the logistics were completely covered by the national defense budget, a fleet of this size would be financially bankrupt within a year.  The navy is also fortunate to have the support of Qi Yiming.
