Jagged Germany

Chapter 51: Unreasonable trouble (seeking collection)



   "His Royal Highness, Prince Oscar, and Marshal Earl Tirpitz have left His Majesty's office." A waiter reported to Crown Prince William.

   "Hmph!" Crown Prince William snorted coldly, and left his office quickly.

  In the garden of the imperial palace, Qin Tian and Marshal Count Tirpitz were walking along the path, and the two met to return to Berlin.

"Your Highness, our 'Nassau-class' battleships, 'Helgoland-class' battleships and 'Blücher-class' battlecruisers are all stronger than the British battleships and battlecruisers, which undoubtedly makes In terms of dreadnoughts, we have shortened the gap with the British." Marshal Earl Tirpitz is full of confidence in the future of the navy.

"Yes, Your Excellency the Marshal. However, we cannot be overconfident. Although our capital ships are stronger than those of the British in terms of performance, we cannot deny that the British still have great strength in shipbuilding and warship design. advantages. Especially their financial resources, and the large number of large shipyards. Once they find that their maritime supremacy is threatened, they will definitely go all out to build more warships. At that time, we will see the British Navy Our capital ships are being launched into service one after another. And our high seas fleet may have to face the hordes of British capital ships." Qin Tian sighed.

  Britain's shipbuilding strength is number one in the world. Coupled with their deep pockets, the accumulation of the British Empire for hundreds of years is not something to talk about casually. Once their war machines are fully operational, the capital ships of the Royal Navy of the British Empire will inevitably be launched into the water like dumplings. At that time, the German Navy will inevitably be under tremendous pressure.

  The smile on the face of Marshal Earl Tirpitz also disappeared, he knew that what Qin Tian said was true. The war potential of the British is undoubtedly very terrifying. Although the British army is small and has low combat effectiveness. However, it has to be admitted that the British navy's maritime supremacy is very difficult to shake. It will be very difficult to defeat the British Navy.

"Your Highness, although this road is extremely difficult. However, we have no possibility of retreating. We can only go on this road until we defeat the British, or we ourselves are smashed to pieces." Count Tirpitz The marshal's eyes shone with determination.

Qin Tian nodded: "That's true, Your Excellency Marshal. Our enemies are very strong, and it is very difficult to defeat them. However, we will do our best to defeat them. Even if it ends in failure , at least we have worked hard for this, and we will not regret it in the future.”

   Marshal Earl Tirpitz nodded repeatedly, looking at Qin Tian, ​​his eyes were full of approval. He even thought in his heart that compared to Crown Prince William, Qin Tian is much stronger in terms of talent and character. If Qin Tian was the Crown Prince of the German Empire, it would obviously be more beneficial to the German Empire. Of course, this is just a thought. Qin Tian's right of succession is far behind. The first in line to the throne is Crown Prince William, which cannot be changed. This also made Marshal Earl Tirpitz only sigh in his heart.

"Your Excellency the Marshal, all our battleships now use oil-fired boilers and steam turbines. However, Germany is a country that is extremely short of oil. All the oil we consume needs to be imported from overseas. In peacetime, this is not the case. What's the problem. We can get enough oil from the US. But if the war breaks out, even if the Americans are willing to sell us the oil. The British will block our sea trade lines. At that time, if the fuel runs out, We will have no oil to use. All warships can only lie in the port." Qin Tian reminded.

"Your Highness, it is indeed possible. However, oil-fired boilers have great advantages over coal-fired boilers. Not only are they more powerful, but they can also further improve the endurance of warships. As for fuel, we can only Store as much oil as possible before the war breaks out." Marshal Earl Tirpitz sighed. Who made Germany's resources so scarce? Almost everything except coal is lacking.

   "Well, this is the only way. I hope our navy can defeat the British on the battlefield. In this case, we won't be afraid of the British cutting off our maritime trade lines." Qin Tian nodded.

  At the same time, Qin Tian also plans to start storing oil to prepare for future wars.

   "Oscar!" At this moment, an angry voice sounded.

   Marshal Earl Tirpitz and Qin Tian, ​​who were talking about something, couldn't help but be taken aback. Immediately, they saw the angry Crown Prince William walking towards them.

   "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Both Qin Tian and Marshal Count Tirpitz took the initiative to say hello. After all, although Crown Prince William is a little less capable, he is the Crown Prince of the German Empire after all, and his identity and status are all there.

"Hmph! Oscar, do you still see me as the Crown Prince?" Crown Prince William's voice was stern, as if Qin Tian was his sworn enemy. His ferocious face looked very ugly, and there was a fierce light in his eyes. , as if he wanted to eat Qin Tian in one bite.

   "His Royal Highness, what do you mean?" Qin Tian frowned, not knowing what happened. He didn't seem to offend Crown Prince William, did he? But why did Crown Prince William treat him like this?

   Marshal Earl Tirpitz also frowned: "His Royal Highness, is there some misunderstanding?"

"Hmph! Your Excellency Marshal, what are you talking about? Could it be that your navy is starting to stand in line? Don't forget, I am the Crown Prince of the German Empire! I am the future Emperor of the German Empire." Crown Prince William Even more furious. In his opinion, the speech made by Marshal Earl Tirpitz just now represented that the navy's position has changed, and it has begun to support Qin Tian. This is completely unacceptable to him.

   "His Royal Highness, what nonsense are you talking about? When did the navy have such a meaning!" Count Tirpitz Marshal also looked very ugly. The army has never interfered with the succession of the royal family. This is a common practice, and it is also a red line that no one will cross. Marshal Earl Tirpitz thought that he did not act like that. However, Crown Prince William said such nonsense, which would be a great insult to the reputation of him and the navy. Naturally, this old marshal who built the German navy could not accept it.
