The lights jumped, reflecting the faces of the three men in a dim light.

Qingying told all the information she got in the afterlife, and her heart was unspeakably happy. At this time, he was not at all worried about the fact that what he had just said did not match his age, he really couldn't, he could throw all the reasons to the "Jane's Battleship Yearbook" published by the British!

Wilhelm II remained for a moment, his face changing; Surprise, ecstasy, pleasure, anger...... All of this flashed across his face. He closed his eyes and was silent for a while, and when he looked at Tirpitz again, he no longer had the calm and calm in his eyes, but a little more anger, and said in a deep voice: "Alfred, is what Etel said true?" ”

Swept away by Wilhelm II's fierce gaze, Tirpitz did not dare to meet the emperor's eyes; He thought carefully for a while, and a piece of battleship data flashed through his mind, and he suddenly froze in place. After a while, the blood on Tirpitz's face faded at a rate that was palable to the naked eye, taking on a paper-like paleness; He slowly lowered his head and muttered, "Yes, what His Royal Highness said is exactly what he said." ”

"In that case, I have a question for Alfred." Wilhelm II's face turned pale, and he shouted in syllables that almost popped out of his teeth: "At almost the same speed, for what kind of British, you can equip 10 120mm guns on a ship of 2440 tons; And the ship I designed is 2,650 tons, and it is only equipped with 8 120mm guns, so it becomes a lead duck that sinks when launched? The British-built ship still had vertical armor, and the combined weight of the armor was only a lot more than my design! ”

"In this way, the designers of the empire were indeed a little more conservative, but perhaps they considered more aspects, such as structural redundancy and seaworthiness? Your Majesty, you also know that if the battleship does not have enough structural redundancy, no matter how good the data on paper is, it is useless. Tirpitz felt a strangely dry throat, and he now regretted the tone he had used to evaluate the Emperor's warship. The cruiser "Chiyoda" that Kiyoying just mentioned was also regarded as a heresy that sank when it was launched, so why didn't he and this group of designers think about it?

"Alfred, don't think that I don't know the way, structural redundancy is indeed important, but it must also be moderate! The redundancy reserved by this group of guys has obviously affected the performance of the ship; Even the real objects that Ettel could find for reference, these fools did not know all of them, and on this basis alone, they were not qualified to sit in the position of the Navy Design Bureau again! Wilhelm II's eyes were full of anger, and he said loudly, "What about the seaworthiness, the British ship was bought by the Japanese, and it needs to sail half the world to return home, and the seaworthiness can be poor?" That's how these ship designers under your command serve the Empire? Or in their eyes, I'm just an idiot who doesn't know anything about ship design, and can't get into their eyes at all? The more Wilhelm II spoke, the angrier he became, and he slammed his fist on the desk; The loud sound made Qingying and Tirpitz tremble in their hearts!

"Your Majesty's anger is relieved!" Tirpitz saw that Wilhelm II was really angry, and hurriedly got up from his chair, bowed his head, and said, "The designers of the Imperial Navy may indeed be negligent, but they definitely don't have the slightest contempt for His Majesty!" In the five years since His Majesty's accession to the throne, the rise of the German Empire has surpassed the period of the reign of the Holy Emperor, and they respect His Majesty from the bottom of their hearts! ”

thought of his hard work for so many days of forgetting to sleep and eat, but he was directly rejected by a few idiot bricks in this way, and he was ridiculed all over the palace and outside the palace; Wilhelm II, who had always regarded himself very highly, was filled with resentment and anger, and couldn't help but roar loudly: "Neglected? Alfred, you were there at the time, and you heard what those guys had to say about my battleship, and it wasn't a matter of negligence! With this kind of designer stealing from a high position, when will the Imperial Navy be able to overtake Russia and catch up with France? ”

"Yes, yes! When I go back, I'll immediately kick those old people out of the design bureau! Tirpitz saw that Wilhelm II's tone was showing signs of loosening, and hurriedly beat the snake with the stick, first to calm the emperor's anger, and then talk about anything else. Wilhelm II gasped through his nostrils for a moment, and suddenly as if he had thought of something, the anger on his face disappeared. He exhaled softly and whispered in a hesitant tone, "Alfred, I just thought of something. ”

Seeing that Wilhelm II suppressed his anger so quickly, and said it so solemnly, Tirpitz was shocked in his heart, and did not dare to slack off, so he hurriedly looked solemn and said, "Your Majesty, please speak." ”

"My lead duck, the designers all think that it can't be built without 4,000 tons, and then think of the Americans' 'Olympia', how swollen is the tonnage of the Imperial Navy battleship? When I think about it now, I feel terrified! Wilhelm II's voice echoed through the room, with a hint of nightmarish fear, "Why don't they dare to add firepower to their ships?" Where does all this puffy weight come from? Alfred, you're going to have to find out! ”

As soon as Wilhelm II said this, Tirpitz also felt that the matter was serious, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, within 30 days, I will definitely give your Majesty an explanation!" ”

Wilhelm II nodded slightly, and said softly: "When you go this time, you will first show the data of the battleship named 'Chiyoda' to that group of people, and ask them to completely redesign me from the inside out to find out what their previous problems were." If they can't do it in a month...... Just let them all get out of the naval ship design bureau, Germany does not need to raise such a group of idiot designers who can only solve problems by tonnage! ”

A chill welled up in Tirpitz's heart, and he said yes.

A wave of sleepiness hit, Wilhelm II couldn't help but yawn a lot, and turned his head to see that the wall clock on the wall had pointed to 11 o'clock. He waved his hand and said to Tirpitz, "Alfred, go back and rest." If there is any problem, we will discuss it tomorrow. ”

Tirpitz also felt a little tired at this point. He was now in turmoil, desperate to rest and recuperate; When he heard this, he saluted Wilhelm II and turned to leave the room.

"Whew...... In that case, my mission is accomplished! Looking at Tirpitz's distant figure, the big stone in Qingying's heart finally landed. He took off his trench coat from the hanger and was about to retire when the gentle voice of Wilhelm II came from behind him: "Ettel, you stay first." I have something to say to you. ”
