Chapter 22
"Sister, are you ready?"
Xuefeng, who was a little nervous, nodded firmly after hearing Wei An's words.
At the same time, Wei An handed her the drawings that he had never shown to Xuefeng.
As expected, Wei An saw Xuefeng's mouth wide open in the next second, looking at him speechless with a surprised look on his face.
Until her nerves reacted
"ah!!!"
Xue Feng pointed at the battleship on the drawing incoherently but could not speak.
"Sister, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask. Don’t be hasty and speak slowly."
"Why is the hull so big? Xiaowei, and I have never seen a battleship of this shape before."
What did she see? A battleship is 220 meters long. What is her original hull length?
118.5 meters. The battleship on the drawing Wei An drew for her has almost doubled. How can she not be surprised?
"Because my sister will no longer be an ordinary destroyer from today on. As for the shape of this battleship, those vacant places will be used to carry weapons in the future."
On the battleship drawings that Wei An drew for Xuefeng, there was no part about weapons and equipment. There was only a simple hull, a bare deck, a command room, and the internal structure of the hull.
"By the way, sister, please take a look at the second page of the blueprint. This is the steel formula I prepared for you. You will just need to use the proportions of this formula to materialize the ship."
After hearing Wei's explanation, Xuefeng's worries were somewhat relieved. At the same time, she also knew why Wei'an prepared a 240mm main gun for her. It seemed that a ship of this size could indeed hold it.
"Xiaowei, if my sister's hull becomes like this, will she still be a destroyer?"
Looking at the slender battleship with a prismatic style, she couldn't associate it with a small destroyer. If she was forced to say it, it would be more like a battleship.
But she noticed something different about this ship. This ship The ship's width is only 22.3 meters.
The warship is generally very slender, with the length-to-width ratio almost approaching 1:10.
"Destroyer, it must be a destroyer. Sister, isn’t our tonnage just a few hundred million points larger?"
However, the idea of Yukikaze's hull is indeed derived from the cruiser. To put it bluntly, Yukikaze's displacement is no longer the tonnage that a destroyer should have.
"Okay sister, let’s get started. Don’t worry about the power location for now, I still need to help you modify it."
Hearing Wei'an's words, Xuefeng nodded, and at the same time took out all the resources in his ship's equipment space.
In particular, Wei'an had already changed the number of resources.
Fuel: 15225
Ammunition: 16930
Steel: 54000
Aluminum: 5000
His steel has exceeded the 50,000 mark, and there are only 5000 aluminum left.
However, he does not have an aircraft carrier now, so aluminum resources are not so scarce, and he can't use it.
Steel is still the most used material for the hull.
The well-prepared Xuefeng summoned his ship equipment and jumped into the dock room at once, and began to communicate with the battleship in his body.
Then Wei'an saw a very unscientific scene.
A shadow of a battleship appeared around Xuefeng in the dock room, but it was very small compared to the dock.
The length of the battleship was about 100 meters.
Wei'an knew that it was the real Xuefeng destroyer, but the next second, the shadow completely dissipated and turned into a bubble.
At the same time, these bubbles turned into lines of blue light, outlining one by one.
Very fast The speed was so fast, and Wei An was watching with great interest.
It was not until two hours later that the blue lights were completed and stopped, and the battleship was completely outlined.
It was the hull that Wei An designed for Xuefeng.
Similarly, the appearance of the battleship in Xuefeng's mind core also became this battleship.
The steel scattered around Xuefeng also began to be consumed rapidly and materialized one by one from the bottom of the battleship.
When Xuefeng materialized the hull, she was also a little confused about the function of the protrusion at the bottom of the front of the battleship.
But now she was materializing and she didn't have the energy to ask.
Because she was worried that Xuefeng would have problems with the hull when she materialized it for the first time, Wei An stayed in the dock with Xuefeng.
It was not until 10 o'clock in the evening, after a full ten hours of materialization, that Xuefeng finally materialized the hull, armor, and internal structure of this battleship.
A perfect and beautiful battleship shell.
As long as it is given power and weapons, it will be a sea war machine.
The tired Xuefeng took back all the remaining unused resources into her own ship equipment space.
Jumped into Wei An's arms
"Xiaowei, sister is so tired."
Because she was afraid of giving up halfway, Xuefeng persisted. Now she relaxed and fell asleep in Wei An's arms.
"Thank you for your hard work, sister. Leave the rest to me."
Speaking softly to Xuefeng, Wei An changed into a comfortable position for Xuefeng to sleep before continuing to walk up the shore and the ladder on the dock to the battleship for a brief observation.
【Now that the hull is ready, we will start preparing the ship equipment. 】
Because Wei An decided to use ship equipment to carry all parts except the main hull of the battleship in order to update and upgrade the battleship in the later stage.
So Wei An will have to deal with the power and armament parts next. However
, after entering the Admiral Academy for in-depth study, Wei An found that the battleships embodied by the ship girls in this world are somewhat different from those in the previous life.
These battleships do not have radars.
The enemy is discovered by naked eye reconnaissance or the aircraft of the aircraft carrier ship girl.
This is also the reason why aircraft carriers are not taken seriously. The admirals in this world use aircraft carriers as lights to seize air superiority.
Moreover, the battleship girls with higher training can also use secondary guns to shoot down planes.
The combat effectiveness of the aircraft carrier ship girl is further compressed, especially after the aircraft of the aircraft carrier sister is shot down, the admirals can only feel very painful when they see their ability to eat aluminum.
So it is better to be an eye at ease. The aircraft carrier in the deep sea is not that powerful, and the loss of air superiority is relatively small.
As for why the fast destroyer is not used to light the light or something.
After the ship's body is materialized, the ship girl must be on her own ship when operating the ship.
Therefore, the time required for a destroyer to go back and forth is longer than that required for an airplane.
Maybe the reconnaissance plane has just discovered the enemy, and the big sister of the aircraft carrier has already received the information and started to report to the admiral and wait for instructions.
There is no need to wait for the reconnaissance plane to come back.
However, although there is no radar and no fire control system, there is still sonar.
This made Wei An breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, if there is no sonar, it would be really dark at sea, and it would be too dangerous to encounter a submarine villain.
The cautious Wei An must research sonar before going out to sea.
