Chapter 893 - Remuneration 1

"His Majesty the Emperor will personally go to the military port of Kiel to celebrate our triumph, from now on we will finally no longer be treated as a sit-down fleet, we have realized the value of the High Seas Fleet, and from this point alone, I think, you are more suitable for the leadership of the German Navy, Field Marshal Tirpitz is a qualified politician, Admiral Leaule is a qualified chief of staff, and what does Admiral Boll say? His body and energy were unfit to lead such a fleet. www.biquge.info I look forward to fighting side by side again under your command. Lieutenant General Scheer said very sincerely.

"My captains and officers hope that you are a man who truly understands the Navy, that you see us as warriors like you, not just a political or strategic tool, that we are eager to make a difference, that we are hungry for victory, that we want to leave our own footprints on the rise of the Empire. And you fulfilled our demands, and just from this point of view, without going against the interests of the Reich, I will support you as much as General Hipper. Scheer said sincerely.

"Yes, I promise, the Navy will play an important role in this war, we will fight against a strong enemy in the North Sea, the Baltic, the Mediterranean, the Atlantic and the Indian Ocean. As long as I can still play a role, then I promise that the Empire will not treat any warrior who has put in the effort or even donated his blood in this war! If I could, I would like the Navy to be treated in the same way as the Bavarian Legion, and we will do something for the descendants of every martyr! The prince said.

This is not just a statement, but the prince really intends to do this, and the families of the fallen soldiers in the Bavarian regiment will receive a monthly pension and there will be some tilt in terms of employment. The prince was able to do this because the Kingdom of Bavaria was economically strong enough and was a relatively closed kingdom, and he did whatever he wanted, as long as it did not threaten the Kaiser.

Unlike the German Army, the establishment of the German Navy, in addition to meeting the needs of Germany's foreign expansion and releasing domestic productivity, another important factor was to balance the political power at home, and the Junker aristocracy, although in decline, was still strong, and the army, horse politics and agriculture were their own land. They also control the local basic power. The Kaiser was unhappy with this, and the newly built navy absorbed a large number of petty intellectuals, bourgeois personnel, who were given new avenues of ascent and eager for change. To some extent, the forces of internal German politics were balanced. Let the Kaiser be left and right in German politics.

However, at the end of history, it was the navy that completely overturned the skyscraper of the Second German Reich, and the naval uprising in the port of Kiel finally worsened the whole situation! And it quickly became out of control! The main German combat forces were on the front line, and if the tens of thousands of navies in the port of Kiel decided to revolt, it would really be God who could not do anything. Diverse personnel make the navy and the army different, the latter is the Junker aristocracy, in the case of less than a last resort, the Junker aristocracy and the royal family are one, but the navy is different, the impact of various currents of thought on the navy will be greater, the army can still fight a wave of threatening offensives in 1918, and the navy has become the fuse, so for the navy with a little less stability, the prince needs to tie them to the empire, one loss, one glory!

And to be honest, the Navy should be paid high, and it is normal for technicians to be paid high, and the main casualties of the Navy are submarine forces, these personnel are definitely high-risk occupations, once the submarine is sunk, then the probability of survival is very low, although the anti-submarine technology in this era is not powerful, but everything is afraid of what happens. Moreover, the environment and hardship of the submarine force are also the highest, so it is natural to give higher treatment.

As for the personnel of the main fleet, if they could be brought under the command of the prince, and could play an important role in the anti-blockade operations at sea and in the campaign to suppress Russia, then the prince naturally did not hesitate to give them higher treatment and a bright future. This can be regarded as a benefit in disguise. And in fact, if Germany can win, it's really not bad! Let's think of it as stimulating domestic demand.

Although the prince also had the intention of depleting and weakening the British navy through the continuous attacks of the main fleet, so as to weaken the blockade line, this was only a plan, and it will depend on how effective it will be, if Germany can obtain a large amount of foreign aid by sea in the coming months, then the prince will consider organizing several more large-scale battles in the future to obtain some breakthroughs.

"So do you have any other instructions for the Navy?" Scheer asked.

"Now? Let our officers and men enjoy a relaxing and comfortable evening, and we will talk about it later. Both Bavaria and my front-line command are always welcome. The prince said with a smile.

At the same time, in Brussels, the capital of Belgium, the Kaiser was holding a report of the battle that had just been counted, venting his excitement to the top brass of the Second Reich!

"Ah, I really wonder what my Uncle Edward's face will be like when he sees this report? Royal Navy? Grand Fleet? Just today, we must all remember this moment in history, he has been thrown into the Atlantic by us by the German Imperial High Seas Fleet, and then stepped on a few feet! The Kaiser held the document in his hand high and slammed it on the table.

"You know what? It was the best telegram ever received since the start of the war, and the greatest victory of the Imperial army! Since, the enemy's most dominant navy, is all spanked by us, then tell me, now, what else can stop the advance of the Empire? Are those cowardly Frenchmen on the Western Front? Or those rude Slavs in the East? As for the Royal Army? I need to give them a shout-out, they're much better than the Navy! Let me vaguely see a glimmer of the afterglow of the British Empire! ”

"Now, then, let us discuss, how we can reward the planners of this campaign, the greatest hero, and Prince Ruprecht, who has made a great contribution to the building of the High Seas Fleet?" The Kaiser proposed the theme of today's meeting.
