"Ciric, this is different from what we had planned. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 The meeting was over, and he returned to the guest house, carefully checked all around to make sure there were no eavesdropping equipment, and then opened the record, and amid the melodious singing, mixed with the whispered complaints of Colonel Gonther-Lütjans.

The eavesdropping equipment of this era is quite primitive, after all, in an era when there is only the telegraph, what advanced eavesdropping equipment will there be?

At the beginning, it was supposed to be good, only 283 mm naval guns were exported to the USSR, but now, it has become 406 mm!

The agreement has already been reached in principle, and it is just a matter of planning the specifics.

It can be said that Ciric's visit to Moscow was very fruitful, and the orders from the Soviet Union were enough for Krupp and other major German steel and arms manufacturers to be busy at full speed for three to five years.

Among them, there are more than a dozen battleships, including monster-class battleships with a displacement of 40,000 tons!

This made Colonel Lütjans very dissatisfied, how could Germany export such advanced naval guns to the Soviet Union!

"Yes, these are unplanned, but we have a lot to gain this time, for example, we will add at least 100,000 jobs in the country."

"Ciric, you didn't understand my words, 40,000 tons of battleship, 406 mm heavy guns, don't you know what it means? In the future, this will be the greatest threat to our German Navy. ”

"So you mean that." "There's nothing to worry about, but if there's a delay, we'll probably have to build it in a decade or so," Ciric said. When the time comes, the changes in the international situation will make it impossible for us to hand over this warship to the Soviets again? ”

Between the ***** and the country, there are too many such means, and in later generations, Russia refitted an aircraft carrier for India, and said that it would not take a penny, and in the end it became a sky-high price!

Now, of course, Ciric is ready to play hooligan! This battleship should be considered to have been built for the German Navy itself.

"Or, when we build, we increase the side armor and weaken the top armor, so that we can easily destroy it with just the bombs dropped by the aircraft." Ciric continued.

This is a rare opportunity, and Germany certainly cannot afford to let it go! A 40,000-ton battleship! The construction of this kind of warship will allow the German shipbuilding industry to make rapid progress, and in the future, it will be easy to build warships for Germany itself!

In short, the opportunity is too precious! Ciric doesn't want to let this opportunity slip away!

In later generations, the reasons for Germany's defeat were manifold, the absence of a strong navy, definitely one aspect!

Germany, in the future, it is necessary to develop the Navy!

The experience summed up in World War II is that without air supremacy, there is no sea supremacy, so aircraft carriers began to emerge and finally became a symbol of maritime supremacy.

Germany, of course, also wants to develop aircraft carriers, this is the demand of the future! If Germany can have more than a dozen aircraft carriers, see how the United States can send supplies to Britain! Once the Atlantic shipping line is cut off, do you still need to worry about the British problem?

However, although aircraft carriers are important, battleships are not obsolete in this era! In World War II, even if the battleship Bismarck was sunk, the remaining German battleships still held back most of the British Navy's energy.

If you want to avoid the fate of defeat in World War II, you must pay attention to the navy! In particular, from now on, it is necessary to pre-develop new technologies!

In later generations, when the battleship Bismarck was in service, it also used 380 mm naval guns, because Germany had no technical reserves at that time, so it was difficult to develop 406 mm naval guns, and now, it has only been 30 years, in the name of developing for the Soviets, this kind of naval guns have been tinkered!

At the same time, this project will also have other benefits, for example, the Soviets have no foreign exchange reserves, and they have to settle with a large amount of ore and so on, all of which need to be brought by rail.

Later, after the project entered the actual stage, it was possible to lobby the Soviet side, the railway standards were not uniform, which caused the trouble of transshipment in the transportation process, so the Soviet railways must be in line with the West, so that it is convenient!

What is convenient? Later, of course, when the Soviet Union was invaded!

There are so many benefits in this that Ciric is ecstatic!

Ciric is not worried about domestic disagreement, when he came, he was ordered by Hindenburg, and Chancellor Hitler's affirmation, he can be said to represent not only the Krupp family, but also the German military industrial complex, on behalf of the German government.

How can the country not agree to create more jobs in the country?

Now, it's up to the Soviet side, after all, it's Stalin who really makes the decision, it's up to this guy whether he agrees or not, however, Ciric feels that there is no problem, after all, the Soviet Union has no choice!

At this time, in the heart of the Red Empire, in the Kremlin, Stalin was listening to Tukhachevsky's debriefing.

As a close comrade-in-arms of the great revolutionary mentor Lenin, after Lenin's death, Stalin established himself in a firm position by various means, and now Stalin is the chairman of the Council of People's Commissars and the de facto controller of the entire vast empire.

Ciric is not very old and does not hold a high position, but, just like the ping-pong diplomacy of later generations, there is a large group of interest groups behind Ciric, and Ciric is here on their behalf.

"In other words, in order for Germany to get out of their economic crisis, they need to increase the number of jobs, so the Germans will sell us advanced weapons and equipment, and even they will help us design and build 40,000-ton battleships?" Stalin asked Tukhachevsky: "And what we need to pay is a lot of minerals and raw materials, and we don't need to pay for it?" ”

"Yes, this is the progress we have made in our negotiations." Tukhachevsky said: "Comrade Stalin, please give me an idea of whether or not to develop the next step of cooperation with the Germans. ”

Smoking his own big pipe, Stalin pondered.

When the tobacco in the pipe was exhausted, Stalin finally made a decision: "We can start an early cooperation with the Germans to build Dezezinsky-class frigates and Tashkent-class destroyers, and at the same time, ask the Germans to submit the design and drawings of the 40,000-ton battleship to us for review, and if everything goes well, then carry out the Soviet-class battleship plan." ”

Drawing! I asked for the drawings first, and even if the Soviet Union started construction itself, there would be an object to imitate! Stalin, of course, also demanded to be safe!
