The Third Reich

Cyric found that this kind of blood on his hands is indeed Himmler's best. Cyric just followed to participate in the capture of the high-level stormtroopers. As for later, Cyric is really unwilling to do it again. Up.

　　 So, according to the previous plan, Cyric continued his journey.

　　Go to England!

　　 Taking advantage of the economic crisis, go to the UK to scan for goods!

　　 Before leaving Germany, Cyrek came to the German shipyard in Kiel. Here, a 10,000-ton-class warship is entering the final outfitting stage and will soon be completed and put into service!

　　 10,000-ton German-class armored ship!

　　 This is the 10,000-ton class armored ship that Germany started construction after the end of World War I and under the restrictions of the Treaty of Versailles. In 29 years, this first ship had already been laying the keel.

　　 How to improve the capabilities of this warship as much as possible under the limit of 10,000 tons was a question that was repeatedly considered at that time.

　　Finally, the Deutsche Class adopted a high-freeboard flat-deck ship type, widely used welding technology, and diesel engines were used for power. These methods reduced dead weight and increased endurance.

　　 At the same time, the Deutsche Class uses 6 283 mm caliber main guns, with three main gun turrets, one for each main gun turret hull. Concentrate maximum firepower on the smallest possible hull scale.

　　 In the end, this warship achieved its goal. Its firepower was stronger than any current 10,000-ton treaty heavy cruiser equipped with 203mm guns and only light armor protection. Its top speed was 26 knots faster than the current battleship.

　　In other words, if you run into the same opponent, you can kill the opponent with absolute firepower and armor superiority. If you encounter something more powerful than yourself, then run away!

　　 This type of armored ship meets the requirements of the German Navy for coastal defense in offshore areas and for breaking ocean transportation routes.

　　 "Colonel Cyric, it's nice to meet you." When he came here, Cyric heard a welcome voice.

　　Erich John? Albert Riddle, now the commander of the German Navy!

Raidel has served in the navy for many years. After World War I, he remained in the Weimar Republic navy. After becoming commander-in-chief of the navy, he secretly reorganized the poor and weak German navy, laying an important foundation for its future expansion and demanding all The military should not interfere in politics.

　　 And when Hitler came to power, Raidel proposed to him the Z plan to build a huge fleet, but unfortunately it failed in the end.

　　Riddle in history was a figure who had an important influence on the modern German navy. From October 1928 when he served as Minister of the German Navy, until February 1943, when he voluntarily resigned from the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Navy due to differences with Hitler, Raidel actually led the German Navy for 15 years!

　　 Now Raidel has the rank of general. Now, with the restoration of Germany's national power, he is actively engaged in expanding the navy and advocating the heavy construction of cruisers and submarines.

　　 At the same time, Raidel also knew Cyric’s contribution to the navy. Cyric signed a large number of agreements with the Soviet Union during his last visit, including a plan to help the Soviet Union design a 40,000-ton battleship.

　　 Regardless of whether this plan can be realized, in short, the German navy will benefit from it. This is also a good start for them to build their own heavy battleships!

　　 At this time, just in time for Raidel to come to inspect the progress of the German class, and just like that, the two met unexpectedly.

　　 "I'm glad to see you too." Cyric stretched out his hand and shook his hand with Raidel.

　　Although the two have a lot of difference in military rank, Cyric is now the real power figure in Germany. It can be said that Cyric represents Hitler.

　　 At this time, the two of them stood on the pier, looking at the German-class outfitting, they were both very energetic.

"We will definitely break the limits of the Treaty of Versailles." Cyric said: "We are working on diplomacy to prepare to sign a naval agreement with Britain to limit our naval tonnage to 3% of the British naval tonnage. About ten to forty."

　　 "No, we must have a strong navy. Only thirty or forty percent of Britain's is not enough." Hearing Cyric's words, Raidel said loudly.

"Don't get excited, General Rydell." Cyric said: "Even if it is only 20% of Britain, it is much better than the Treaty of Versailles, right?" Cyric said: "We can't move too fast, take one step. Walk step by step."

　　 Hearing this, Raidel smiled embarrassedly, he was just too excited.

"There must be a big battle between us and Britain." Cyric said: "If we want to defeat Britain, we must have a strong navy. It is absolutely not enough to have a German class. More warships will be started."

　　 Cyric’s words filled Raidel with hope. During the Weimar government, Raidel had been hoping to build a powerful navy ~www.ltnovel.com~ Unfortunately, at that time, the government had never dared to break the limits of the Versailles Treaty.

　　From these perspectives, Raidel still supports the current government. The Weimar government is obviously not enough to make Germany truly strong.

　　 "We must have a battleship with a displacement of 40,000 tons or even 50,000 tons." Raidel said: "This is what our German Navy expects most. I really hope we can start construction immediately."

　　 Start construction immediately!

　　Building a battleship is not done overnight! Building a 40,000-ton battleship will not work in less than five years!

　　 "Yes, I also hope that we can start work immediately." Cyric said: "As long as we have signed a naval agreement with Britain, we can start work. At that time, the French can't say anything."

　　 The last time I entered the Rhineland, it is enough to illustrate the contradiction between Britain and France!

　　 "Moreover, we will leave room in the agreement. What we limit is the tonnage of the battleship, so that we have more opportunities to build aircraft carriers." Cyric said.

　　 "However, manufacturing aircraft carriers will slow down the process of our navy. We need to concentrate more resources to build battleships and submarines." Raidel said.

　　 Hearing this, Cyric was taken aback. Only then did Cyric realize a problem.

　　Navy tradition!

Before World War II, the struggle for maritime supremacy was always resolved by guns on warships. Therefore, almost all naval officers hoped that the guns of their surface ships would get bigger and bigger and their armor thicker. They stubbornly hold the thought of artillery, and only a few people can realize the changes brought about by carrier aviation!

　　 This concept must be corrected!
