August 21, 1926, AD 2767.
"Boom!"
The Argentine fleet, which was adjusting its position, suddenly heard the roar of its main guns.
I saw the No. 2 turret of the Rivadavia spraying out a cannon flame of tens of meters.
This shot shocked everyone.
Not to mention Brazil and Argentina, all the onlookers were also shocked.
However, everyone soon realized that those who had cameras and video cameras began to take pictures and grab the shots, while those who did not have these things could only be envious and jealous.
Someone checked the time and it was 12:17 local time.
"Hit, hit, hit, hit" "Oh shit, Argentines are so willing to fight whenever they want."
“There’s something good to watch” The Chinese Navy's channel suddenly burst into excited shouts.
A group of guys watched the fun and started making noises without fear of trouble.
"Nani, the fight is really starting."
Akechi Hidetsuna was also shocked.
"Major, which side do you think can win?"
the pilot asked excitedly.
"That's it."
Akechi Hidetsuna thought for a while and said, "I think if there really is a fight, the Brazilians will be unlucky.
Argentina has two super crossbow-class warships.
Of course, this means that the Argentines themselves will not let go. case."
Although Brazil and Argentina now have the same number of battleships, four, their quality is different.
Three of Brazil's four battleships were bought from the British.
As we all know, Niu Niu has always been unscrupulous in the arms trade, and the Brazilians were no exception and were deceived by them.
The two Minas Gerais-class ships, the Minas Gerais and the Sao Paulo, are typical thin-skinned dumplings.
The unscrupulous Niu Niu weakened their main armor belts to a crazy level to ensure that they can be within normal combat distances.
Penetrated by the main guns of a British armored cruiser.
Opium Niu may be planning to trick the Brazilians to the end.
In addition to these two cheats, the third battleship ordered by Brazil, the "Rio de Janeiro" is also a big cheat.
Although it is equipped with 14 305mm main guns, It is a strange battleship with unprecedented seven turrets.
But the thinness of its armor still makes people want to cry.
Yes, this is the Agincourt, the sacred object of our Multi-turret Cult.
Of course, this is just its name in the original time and space.
At that time and space, due to the shrinking market for Brazil's three major products, coffee, rubber and cocoa, their treasury was empty and unable to pay the money, so they had to resell it to the Ottomans, and it was eventually lost to the shameless opium bull. .
But the history of this plane is different.
Due to the addition of China as a big customer, Brazil's agricultural products are not worried about selling, and a large amount of minerals are exported to China, thus ensuring the capital chain of this ship.
In the end, this sacred ship was left to the Brazilian people.
The battleship "Rio de Janeiro" was completed in February 1914 and returned to Brazil, becoming the third battleship of the Brazilian Navy.
These three cheating ships are all the same thin-skinned dumplings.
Their main armor belts are only 229 mm.
Yes, you read that right.
With only 229 mm of armor, let alone the battleship's main gun, even the front Even the main guns of armored cruisers from the treaty era couldn't hold it.
Of course, it's a holiday for the Navy now.
Those heavy cruisers that exceed the standard have to be dismantled and should be modified.
Currently, there is no cruiser in the world with a main gun caliber exceeding 210 mm.
This finally makes the Brazilians who have been deceived feel better.
At this time, the Argentine's third super-dreadnought-class battleship "Urquiza" was also completed.

This is the New York class ordered from the United States, which is also China's Fuxi class.
Now the Brazilians are panicking.
Originally, Argentina's "Rivadavia-class" was better than theirs, and they could barely maintain the balance by relying on a three-to-two numerical advantage.
But this time, the Argentinian fake girls actually did something.
A super-dreadnought-class ship, how can one live like this?
No, we Brazilian men can never lose to Argentinian women, at least not in terms of performance.
So the Brazilians are planning to get another one, to make it truly super fearless.
As the saying goes, a long-term illness cures the disease, and the Brazilians, who have been tricked so many times in a row, finally learned their lesson.
So their fourth battleship decided not to look for opium cattle.
These pirates are so unscrupulous and shameless.
Our money in Brazil does not come from strong winds.
So they found China in May 1917.
The reason why they chose China this time is very simple, because the super-dreadnoughts built by China have been tested in actual combat, and the Turks have used them happily.
The Germans, who adopted their drawings, exploded opium cattle in Jutland.
Soared.
Secondly, it was World War I at this time, and all European countries capable of building super-dreadnoughts were involved in the war.
Even the United States, which initially stayed out of the war, officially declared war on Germany on April 2, and ended.
Of course the United States will not accept this kind of order at this time.
All their large shipyards were full, so China became the only country at that time that still had the ability and empty shipyards to undertake the construction of super-dreadnought ships.
In addition, there is another reason that is inconvenient to explain, that is, it is built in China and does not require cash.
The Chinese are almost open to purchasing various mineral resources and agricultural products, and Brazil can use the goods they export to China to offset the payment.
The Brazilian Defense Minister who came to negotiate did not even say much about the price, but directly made demands: the largest artillery and the thickest armor.
Mr.
Wen said enthusiastically that you have chosen the right place.
We Chinese are so conscientious.
You can see that we can even buy battleships in active service.
Both the caliber of the guns and the thickness of the armor are the same as those we use ourselves.
Opium Cow is completely different.
But the Brazilians want battleships with all front-mounted main guns.
What China recommends to them is the Li Jing class.
This class is being built by China.
All the drawings and mold tooling are ready, and this type of battleship can be built.
Moreover, this class of battleship is an improved version of the Sun Wu class.
Its seaworthiness is much higher than that of the Sun Wu class, and it is fully suitable for the Atlantic combat environment.
So the Brazilians immediately took pictures of a Li Jing-class super-dreadnought, with 12 390mm main guns, a 360mm composite tilted main armor belt, and a maximum speed of 26 knots, which was enough to blast the Argentinian fake girls into slag.
As a result, less than a month after Brazil placed the order, Argentinians who received the news also came to visit.
They are also anxious.
If the Brazilians build such a super-dreadnought-class battleship, then Argentina will not have the upper hand.
How can this work?
Naturally, China will not refuse this kind of business.
Mr.
Wen is eager to help the world build battleships.
Arms are one of the most profitable businesses in the world, not to mention battleships.
Building a battleship can not only make a lot of money, but also Drive a large number of industries and produce great economic benefits.
China also recommended Li Jing level to Argentina, but the Argentines are more picky, or smarter, than the Brazilians.

They did not trust this layout with all the main guns in the front, and demanded that it be changed to a traditional layout with a balanced arrangement at the front and rear.
They were very satisfied with the Fuxi-class battleship, but they requested that the main gun be enlarged and the armor thickened.
Of course, China has no objection to this.
In doing business, it is natural to meet the requirements of customers.
So China designed a separate battleship for Argentina based on the Fuxi class.
This is the "San Martin class".
The layout is similar to the Fuxi class, with four triple 390 mm turrets.
The armor is the same as the Li Jing class, which is also 360 mm composite.
The main armor belt is tilted, the maximum speed is 26 knots, and the standard platoon is 00 tons.
These two Chinese-built super-dreadnoughts were delivered to Brazil and Argentina respectively in March and June 1921.
Although Brazil and Argentina have also joined the naval treaty, their capital ship tonnage target is 200,000 tons, which is more than enough with new ones.
This shot from the Rivadavia not only shocked the onlookers, but also frightened one of its own people.
"Asshole, who did this?"
Batistuta was really angry.
He was certain that he had not ordered the cannon to be fired.
Although he believed that even if there was a fight, his fleet would definitely have the upper hand, they had no intention of actually fighting at all.
This time, their Argentine navy came out in full force, just to stand on the streets to support their appearance and scare the Brazilians back.
Because in the eyes of the Argentines, the Brazilian Navy is not as strong as them, and it is at Argentina's home court, so the Brazilians will definitely not dare to take action.
The facts are indeed what they thought.
The Brazilian Navy is also here to show off this time.
It is here to cheer up the Red Party of Uruguay.
It has never thought of actually fighting the Argentines.
According to the Brazilians' thinking, those sissy bitches in Argentina would not dare to take action.
There is nothing to be afraid of when they can't even defeat Paraguay.
Although both parties are just acting, it still needs to be like that.
Therefore, the eight battleships on both sides are currently aiming their guns at each other, and all of them have their shells loaded and ready to go.
But the plan was not as fast as the change.
Unexpectedly, the Argentine took action first.
Well, the Rivadavia investigation quickly came back, it was an accidental hit.
Yes, it was a misfire.
The fire control officer in the No. 2 turret of the Rivadavia was too nervous and his hand slipped, so he made an own mistake.
We all know that the old Japanese fleet in the original time and space fell apart once the battleships were put into actual combat because of the lack of training on the battleships.
For example, during the Battle of Samar Island, the Japanese fleet had four battleships: Yamato, Nagato, Kongo, and Haruna, 6 heavy cruisers, 2 light cruisers, and 11 destroyers, while the U.S. fleet only had 6 escort aircraft carriers and Three destroyers, four frigates, and six escort aircraft carriers were all running away without participating in the war.
But in this situation of absolute advantage, Japan's battleship lost its chain and was beaten head-on by three primary school ships and four kindergarten ships.
The general flagship Yamato took the lead in escaping, and the Nagato, Kongo and Haruna were Suffering heavy damage, two heavy cruisers and one light cruiser were sunk.
The result they achieved was 2 escort aircraft carriers, 3 destroyers and 1 frigate.
It can be said that they were embarrassed to Pluto.
The Argentine Navy's own incident was also due to lack of training, so it fired the main gun in a panic during the confrontation.
Then the Rivadavia's shot became the trigger.
At this time, the distance between the two fleets was about 17 kilometers.
The gun did not hit the target, and was more than 70 meters away from the Minas Gerais it was aimed at.
But this shot caused a chain reaction.
The Brazilians were also frightened by this shot at first.
They did not expect that the group of Argentinian transvestites opposite them were so smart and dared to fight.
But they reacted within a few seconds, and the captain of the targeted Minas Gerais became anxious and immediately ordered a counterattack.

Because before they came here, General Serico, who hated this political show mission, gave them an order.
As long as those Argentinian bitches dared to fire, I would beat them back.
The captain of the Minas Gerais kept the orders from his superiors in mind.
Although he was a little surprised why Argentina only fired with one main gun, this did not affect his counterattack.
Besides, he was also frightened.
The first shot missed by more than 70 meters, which was already terrifying.
"Boom, boom, boom" roared five times.
While maneuvering, the Minas Gerais fired a salvo and a half for calibration.
General Serico also saw the Argentinian's shot.
He was also a little confused about what the shot was.
If it was an attack, it seemed that only one main gun would be used.
Before he had time to think about it, the Minas Gerais had already fired back in accordance with his previous orders.
"This" he suddenly became entangled in, and was hesitating whether to communicate with the other party.
The main guns of the remaining Argentine battleships also began to roar.
The Argentinians' nerves were also very tense at this time.
After all, the fleets of the two sides had been confronting each other here for several days.
Besides, their superiors also gave them the same order.
Now that they saw the Minas Gerais firing, of course You're welcome.
"Order the entire fleet to launch an attack on Argentina."
Admiral Serico is also a decisive person.
Since the fight has begun, let's fight.
At this time, it didn't matter whether there was a misunderstanding or not.
Even if it was necessary to explain, it was a matter for politicians.
Anyway, it was the Argentine who fired first this time, and the surrounding onlookers could all testify.
"All the fleet, fire hard and kill those Brazilian bastards."
Lieutenant General Batistuta also issued the attack order.
He was also very angry.
Brazilian bastards are barbaric.
Didn't we just make a mistake?
Damn it.
He didn't even listen to the explanation and started beating him.
Then let’s fight, who is afraid of whom?
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom" Suddenly the roar of the main guns rang out on the sea, and the eight battleships began to fight against each other.
King versus king on both sides, the Brazilian flagship Recife faced the Argentinian flagship San Martin.
The two Chinese-made super-dreadnoughts greeted each other with main guns of the same caliber.
The multi-turret sacred relic "Rio de Janeiro" faced the Argentinian ship Saavedra, the Minas Gerais faced the Rivadavia, and the Sao Paulo faced the Moreno.
The surrounding onlookers were all excited.
This was the biggest naval battle after World War I.
Especially in China, the United States and the United Kingdom, in addition to watching the excitement, they also have to observe the performance of their own products.
The first two attempts were missed.
This is also normal.
With the training level of the Argentine Navy, it may not be easy to hit the target in the first few rounds.
Because they bought battleships not for fighting, but to show off and scare their neighbors.
Normally, these battleships are treated as treasures and enshrined in their home ports.
They even go out for sea training only a handful of times, let alone live-fire training.

Of course, so does the Brazilian guy next door.
Compared with those in South America, the battleships of the Japanese Navy are really not considered the "Hashira Island Fleet".
However, in the third round of test firing, it was probably because the "holy object" was two guns ahead of the opponent, or it was luck or something else.
In short, the Brazilians scored the first hit.
The "Seven Turret Relic" hit two shells on the opposite Saavedra.
One shell hit the opponent's foremast firing director, directly making the opponent half-blind.
Another shell hit the opponent's main armor belt.
Unfortunately, at this distance, the 305mm main gun could not penetrate the opponent's armor belt.
The Saavedra was a super-dreadnought.
However, compared to a few big hooligans, the training level of both warring parties was still too poor.
As expected, the subsequent rounds of salvos all failed, which made the onlookers very angry.
"It's really unreasonable.
At this distance, even if those exported models don't have advanced fire control systems, our Li Jing-class should have at least a hit rate of 10.
But now it's been five rounds and they haven't hit a single shot.
What a waste to these South Americans."
Good stuff," Chen Ce, the captain of the Qinling, said angrily, looking like he hated iron but couldn't turn it into steel.
His current Qinling is said to be a fast battleship, but it was originally based on a large cruiser.
However, it was later replaced with a 360mm main gun to pretend to be a battleship.
In fact, the Chinese Navy also uses the two Qinling-class ships as secondary battleships, so they are assigned to the Indian Ocean Fleet in the secondary direction.
Captain Chen Ce, who had finally become the captain of the second-class battleship, was extremely jealous of the two new battleships, the Recife and the San Martin.
Seeing them using bean bags as food instead of dry food, Captain Chen felt anxious. .
If he were on the other side's bridge, he might kick the other side's officer away and shout, "Get out of the way and let the professionals come."
Of course, he could only rely on his imagination to satisfy himself now.
"Captain, who do you think will win this time?"
the chief of staff next to him joked.
Chen Ce said disdainfully: "It's really hard to tell.
From the looks of it, with their bad craftsmanship, I'm afraid it just depends on luck.
Whichever side has better luck will win."
Six minutes later, the seven-turret holy object showed its power again and hit three more shells of the Saavedra.
The Saavedra probably had bad luck today, but this time it was unlucky again.
One shot hit the anchor chain room, and another shot destroyed a 130mm secondary battery turret.
Well, this is not serious.
But luckily, one shot blew a huge hole in the rear chimney and set fire to the surrounding boats and flammable materials.
This time, because the battle happened so suddenly, they did not come to collect the flammable materials or throw them into the sea.
Suddenly, the rear mast was surrounded by fire and high-temperature smoke, which seriously affected the observation.
Now that there was a problem with both the front and rear firing directors, the Saavedra's hit rate suddenly dropped significantly, and the shells fired disappeared without knowing where they were.
When the Brazilians saw that they had an advantage to take advantage of, they fought even more happily
