Ciric found that this kind of bloody hands was really Himmler's best, and Ciric only participated in the arrest of the high-level of the stormtroopers, and as for the future, Cirek really didn't want to do it anymore. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

So, as previously planned, Ciric continued his journey.

Travel to the UK!

Take advantage of the economic crisis to go to the UK to sweep the goods!

Before leaving Germany, Ciric went to the Deutsche Shipyard in Kiel, where a warship with a displacement of 10,000 tons is entering the final outfitting stage and will soon be completed and put into service!

A 10,000-ton German-class armored ship!

This is a 10,000-ton armored ship that Germany began to build after the end of World War I under the restrictions of the Treaty of Versailles, and in 29 years, this first ship was already laying a keel.

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

In the end, the German class adopted a high-freeboard flat-deck ship type, extensive use of welding technology, and diesel engines for power, which reduced the dead weight and increased the endurance.

At the same time, the German class used six 283 mm caliber main guns, and three main turrets were installed, one at the bow and one at the end of the hull. Concentrate maximum firepower on the smallest possible hull scale.

Eventually, the ship achieved its purpose, with more firepower than any 10,000-ton treaty-class heavy cruiser armed with 203mm guns and only light armor protection, and reaching a top speed of 26 knots, faster than today's battleships.

In other words, if you meet the same opponent, you can take out the opponent with absolute firepower and armor superiority, and if you encounter someone who is better than yourself, then run away quickly!

This kind of armored ship meets the needs of the German Navy for coastal defense in the near sea area and for breaking up diplomatic operations on ocean-going transportation routes.

"Colonel Ciric, it's a pleasure to meet you." Upon arriving here, Ciric heard a welcoming voice.

Erich Johann Albert Raeder, now the commander of the German Navy!

Raeder had served in the navy for many years, remaining in the navy of the Weimar Republic after World War I, and after becoming commander-in-chief of the navy, he secretly reorganized the weak German navy, laid an important foundation for its future expansion, and demanded that the whole army not interfere in politics.

When Hitler came to power, Raeder proposed to him a plan to build a huge fleet, but unfortunately it did not come to fruition.

Historically, Raeder was a figure who had an important influence on the modern German Navy. From October 1928, when he became Minister of the German Navy, to February 1943, when he voluntarily resigned as Commander-in-Chief of the Navy due to a disagreement with Hitler, Raeder actually led the German Navy for 15 years!

Now Raeder, who has the rank of admiral, is now actively engaged in the expansion of the navy as Germany's national power is restored, advocating the construction of cruisers and submarines.

At the same time, Raeder was also aware of Ciric's contribution to the Navy, and Ciric's last visit had a large number of agreements with the Soviet Union, including a plan to help the Soviet Union design a 40,000-ton battleship.

Regardless of whether this plan can be realized or not, in short, the German navy will benefit from this, and at the same time it will be a good start for them to build their own heavy battleships!

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

"I'm glad to meet you, too." Ciric held out his hand and shook it with Raeder.

Although the two are many levels apart in military ranks, the current Shirek is already a powerful figure in Germany, and it can be said that Shirek represents Hitler.

At this time, the two of them stood on the dock, looking at the Deutsche class who was outfitting, both of them in high spirits.

"We will definitely break the restrictions of the Treaty of Versailles." "We are working on the diplomatic side to sign a naval agreement with Britain to limit our total naval tonnage to about 30 to 40 percent of the total tonnage of the British navy," Ciric said. ”

"No, we must have a strong navy, and only thirty or forty percent of the British is not enough." Hearing Ciric's words, Raeder said loudly.

"Don't get excited, General Raeder." "Even if it's only 20 percent for Britain, it's much better than the Treaty of Versailles, right?" "We can't be too fast, we have to take it one step at a time," he said. ”

Hearing this, Raeder smiled embarrassedly, he was too excited just now.

"There will definitely be a big war between us and the UK." "If we want to defeat Britain, we must have a strong navy, and it is absolutely not enough to have the German class, and we will definitely start more warships in the future," said Ciric. ”

Ciric's words filled Raeder with hope, and during the Weimar government, Raeder had been hoping to build a strong navy, but unfortunately, at that time, the government had never dared to break through the limits of the Treaty of Versailles.

From these points of view, Raeder is still very supportive of the current government, and if Germany wants to be truly strong, the Weimar government is obviously not enough.

"We must have battleships with a displacement of 40,000 tons, or even 50,000 tons." Raeder said: "This is what we are most looking forward to in the German Navy. I wish we could start building it right away. ”

Start building now!

Building a battleship is not done overnight! Building a 40,000-ton battleship will not work without five years!

"yes, I also hope we can get to work right away." "As soon as we sign a naval agreement with the British, we can start construction, and the French will not be able to say anything at that time," Ciric said. ”

The last advance to the Rhineland is enough to illustrate the contradictions between Britain and France!

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

"However, building aircraft carriers will slow down the progress of our navy, and we need to concentrate more resources to build battleships and submarines." Raeder said.

Hearing this, Ciric was stunned for a moment, and at this time, Ciric realized a problem.

Traditions of the Navy!

Before World War II, the struggle for supremacy at sea had always relied on the naval guns on warships to solve, so almost all naval officers hoped that the naval guns of their surface ships would become larger and thicker, and they stubbornly held the idea of artillery, and only a few people could realize the changes brought about by carrier-based aviation!

This concept must be corrected!
