Arriving before anyone else, Tukhachevsky's hearty laughter could be heard from afar.

"Your Excellency Yannick, long time no see." Walking up to him, Tukhachevsky enthusiastically held Yannick's hand and shook it vigorously. Yannick secretly grinned in pain. This guy's hands were like pliers, as if he wanted to crush his own bones.

Why are you working so hard? Show off how much you eat? Although he was cursing in his heart, a warm smile appeared on his face. "Your Excellency General Tukhachevsky, it's been a long time no see. How about the song I gave you last time?"

Last time he accidentally heard that the Soviet ambassador to Germany was returning to his country after his term of office expired. I took some time to copy "Katyusha" and asked the ambassador to pass it on to Tukhachevsky. The song that inspired countless Red Army soldiers in the original time and space was now "composed" by him, a capitalist royal family. He didn't believe that when the war broke out, the Soviet Red Army would still be able to sing this song and rush to the front line? If anyone dares to sing Big Beard, his whole family will be sent to Siberia.

"Of course, His Excellency Yannick's accomplishments in music are really beyond my reach. In my opinion, Your Excellency Yannick is already a world-class music master." It seems that this general also has a deep understanding of "Thousands of wears, no flattery." "Wear" the truth. After some compliments, I mentioned the purpose of this visit. Well, maybe it's not flattery, maybe he really recognizes Yannick's musical attainments. Yannick didn't have the roundworm in his stomach, and he couldn't tell which kind it was.

After everyone took their seats, Tukhachevsky spoke. "Just like Mr. Yannick said when he came to the Soviet Union last time, I came here with sincerity for mutual benefit this time. I saw on the road that Germany doesn't seem to be doing very well today."

Yannick sighed helplessly. "Is your country the only country in the world that has not been affected by this economic storm? Even Ming Dynasty has been greatly affected."

Not only did the economy in 1929 in the original time and space not have a negative impact on the Soviet Union, it can even be said that this economic crisis became a good opportunity for the rise of the Soviet Union as a great power. As the only communist country in the world, the Soviet Union implemented a planned economy, which greatly improved production efficiency.

Compared with the Soviet Union, which was experiencing rapid economic growth, the productivity of Western countries caused by the Great Depression has repeatedly declined. Compared with 1928, industrial production in the United States fell by 44% in 1933, by 45% in Germany, by 25% in France, and by 20% in the United Kingdom. Judging from the steel production, an important indicator of the country's industrial strength at that time, the Soviet Union's pig iron production increased from 3.3 million tons in 1928 to 6.2 million tons in 1932, and steel production increased from 4.3 million tons to 5.9 million tons. Steel rolling production Increased from 3.4 million tons to 4.4 million tons. The level of machine manufacturing industry has also reached the second place in the world.

"So our Soviet socialist system is the best. You also..." At this point, Tukhachevsky suddenly closed his mouth, perhaps thinking of how they treated the Tsarist family, and then thought of The identity of Yannick in front of him made him smile awkwardly and change the topic. "I do come here with great sincerity. I brought 3 cooperation agreements: the first one is from our army, and I want to purchase your drawings of armored reconnaissance vehicles, tanks, trucks and other equipment. ."

Are you so brainwashed and crazy? Are you talking about the superiority of a certain socialist system in front of me, a capitalist royal family?

I originally wanted to see if I could turn you around while Big Beard framed you, but now it seems that this idea is a bit naive, so you can go with peace of mind.

Thinking of this, Yannick nodded slightly. For tanks or something, give them the monkey version of the design drawings of the No. 1 and No. 2 tanks. Armored vehicles, trucks, etc. are of course also monkey versions.

Seeing Yannik's happy agreement, Tukhachevsky continued. "The second one is about industry. I think your country's precision processing equipment has been updated, right? We want to continue to exchange oil and anything else for your country's precision equipment."

Yannick did not agree immediately. He thought quickly in his mind for a while and slowly shook his head. "Your Excellency General Tukhachevsky, this may be a bit difficult. However, your country can transport the ore to our factory in Germany, where we will process it into finished products and then transport it back."

Tukhachevsky couldn't help but wonder. "Why?" Isn't this unnecessary?

Yannick sighed and smiled helplessly. "If it were like 1928, I would have agreed without blinking an eye. But you also know the situation in Germany now. The unemployment rate in Germany is about to exceed 35%, and a large number of people cannot find jobs. I have to find ways Create employment opportunities for them. Otherwise, why would they support the waste royal family that can't even provide for their food and clothing? Besides, this is more beneficial to your country, because even if it is the same precision equipment, I dare say that we German workers can process it The quality is much higher than others.”

Increasing employment opportunities is still secondary. After all, he will soon be able to create an economic miracle like Mustache - zero unemployment rate. The most important thing is that the various ores imported from the Soviet Union are definitely much higher than the finished products exported. For example, if 1,000 tons of rare ores are imported, only 800 or even 700 tons of ores will be used in the finished product returned to the Soviet Union, and the rest can be stored as a strategic reserve!

Tukhachevsky thought for a while, and Yannick's statement seemed to be excusable and reasonable, and he also recognized that the technology and rigor of German workers were indeed higher than those of Soviet workers. "Let's put this aside for now. The last one is a naval cooperation agreement. We all know that your country's submarine force performed very well in the last war. We in the Soviet Union are also eager to have an underwater force that can deter the enemy. . Just like secretly training tank crews and pilots, we can also help you secretly train submarine pilots and even secretly produce submarines. The condition is that we hope that you will send submarine manufacturing experts to assist us in producing Soviet submarines."

Yannick nodded in agreement without hesitation, after all, this was what he needed. "This is not a big problem, but the submarine is a high-tech weapon, and the docks and ports need to be prepared in the Soviet Union. We German workers must account for at least half of these construction projects, and all food, accommodation and wages must be paid. You are responsible.”

"No problem." Tukhachevsky agreed happily.

"As for the tonnage of submarines, we can design 250-ton, 500-ton, 760-ton, and 1,000-ton submarines. By the way, do you want battleships? And aircraft carriers?" Speaking of battleships, Yannick suddenly remembered the original time and space. A "super battleship" from an island country during World War II, with an imperceptible smirk on its lips.

Tukhachevsky had a puzzled look on his face. "Battleship? Has the 'Treaty of Versailles' been rewritten again? When did it happen?" He had already read the contents of the "New Treaty of Versailles". I know that Britain and France allowed Germany to build destroyers. But that's all, they were not allowed to build battleships.

Yannick shrugged and said disapprovingly. "No, the treaty is still that treaty, but we just thought about it and didn't build it. The 'Treaty of Versailles' has nothing to do with it. After all, the police can't arrest you just because you have the idea of ​​killing, right? What's more, the treaty There’s no rule preventing us from building for other countries.”

Tukhachevsky nodded in realization. "Can you tell me the specific data?"

Want to hear data? Of course, no problem, after all, they are all ready-made. "The ship is 263m long (waterline length 25m, draft 4m; standard displacement 64,000 tons, full load displacement 72,810 tons.

The power system is 12 boilers, 4 steam turbines, 4 shafts, and the main engine output power is 153,000 horsepower. It can reach a speed of 27 knots, an endurance of 7,200 nautical miles/16 knots, and a fuel storage capacity of 6,400 tons.

The weapon is equipped with a 45 times caliber main gun, 3 guns in 3-gun mounts, 2 guns in 3-gun mounts; 24 127mm guns, 12 in twin mounts; 15 guns, 45 in 3-gun mounts, 21 single mounts, 4 2mm guns Machine gun, twin mounted 2 seats.

7 carrier-based aircraft.

Main armor belt, 410mm below the middle deck (hardened layer 135mm), camber angle 20°; deck, upper deck 35~55mm, middle deck 200mm;

Turret, front 650mm, sides 250mm, top 270mm, turret 5 ammunition bulkhead, top 270mm, bottom 50~80mm, inclination angle 25° Engine room, boiler room, top 200mm, to the bottom 75~90mm, inclination angle 14°. "

Tukhachevsky was a little stunned as he listened to a series of thrilling data that Yannick said in one breath. Although it was an army, he could fully feel the power of this battleship from these data.

Seeing Tukhachevsky's surprised expression, Yannick couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. Stalin, that arrogant man, would definitely be so excited when he saw the data of this battleship, right? Don't be stingy, be sure to build more ships. It is best to invest all limited resources into this kind of giant ship, and build at least one tank, aircraft, anti-aircraft gun and so on.

Although his stomach was full of bad things, he showed an extremely sincere expression on his face and continued to lie. "This is our 'super battleship' plan. As long as it is built, it will not be a problem even if it overturns the century-old navy of the British Empire. It will be a true maritime hegemon, and no country can match it. If it were not for the current situation in Germany No, I won’t take it out. After all, building such a warship can create jobs for many people, right?”

Tukhachevsky believed deeply in Yannik's words. If this battleship was built, there would be nothing in the world that could rival it. It seems that Mr. Yannick has been so worried about the unemployment rate in Germany that he has even brought out this super weapon. "The price of this kind of super battleship must be very expensive, right?"

"Cheap goods are not good, and good goods are not cheap. But I know that your country's foreign exchange reserves are not very abundant. For the sake of the friendship (me) between our two countries (bah), we don't need currency, and you can pay food."

Now that there is a steady stream of oil shipped from the Ming Dynasty, Yannik is not very interested in Soviet oil. He is more interested in food.

Grain is a good thing. Let the bearded man bring grain from Ukraine and Belarus. The more people starve to death in Ukraine, the more people will hate the bearded man, and the more people will support him once the Germans attack him.

He will not make the mistake of the mustache in the original time and space. As long as he shows a little favor in Ukraine, Belarus and other places, there will immediately be at least hundreds of thousands or even millions of revenge legions who want to chop that big beard into meat paste. "Or it can be converted into ore, oil, wood, etc. But the priority is still food and ore. We will not pay high prices for oil and wood."
