Chapter 303: Temporarily endure
Chapter 303: Temporarily endure
??After the outbreak of the war, Qin Tian's Deutsche Industrial Group was also greatly affected, especially the Deutsche Welfare Lottery Company. Except for the Allies and the United States, the business of other countries was forced to stop. Especially the Allied Powers, Qin Tian had long been prohibited from stealing the Allied Powers' wealth in this way.
??Daimler Motor Company has also been greatly affected, and the production of cars has been compressed to a minimum. The rest of the production capacity is used to produce trucks and jeeps urgently needed by the army to ensure the army's needs in transporting materials and personnel.
?? Of course, Deutsche Shipyards, Deutsche Arms and Deutsche Aircraft Manufacturing have shown explosive growth. During the war, these military industries were originally the most profitable time.
??For Qin Tian, ??who is as wealthy as his country, it is nothing at all to provide weapons, equipment and tanks to several legions on the western front. Even though, the money needs to be paid in advance by him temporarily. To Qin Tian, ??wealth was nothing more than a string of numbers. If he could use this wealth in exchange for the victory of the German Empire in this war, then he would definitely disperse his family property without hesitation.
?? Long before the war broke out, Qin Tian wanted to strengthen the army. But it's a pity that because of Xiao Maoqi's obstruction, he can only affect the 8th Army. Now, with Wilhelm II's preference, and von Falkenhain becoming the chief of the general staff, Qin Tian will naturally be able to infiltrate the army without any scruples, further enhancing his influence .
?? "Oscar, when will the Imperial Navy be able to defeat the British?" William II asked.
??The strategy on land has been formulated, and William II's eyes have shifted to the sea. The German navy gained an advantage in the battle with the British navy, which made William II very satisfied, proving that he was right to support the development of the navy over the years.
"Father, the navy is still implementing the strategy of strangling Britain. The British sea transportation line in the Atlantic Ocean is about to be sunk by our fleet and submarines. However, the navy has noticed that many ships flying the American flag Merchant ships travel between Britain and the United States. You don’t need to think about it. When the British are about to be strangled by us, they can only lower their heads and ask the Americans for help. And the Americans have obviously decided to support the British.” Qin God said.
??The United States will transfuse blood for Britain, which is not beyond Qin Tian's expectation. Germany had a huge advantage in this war. If the Allied Powers did not get support, it is very likely that the war would be lost. And the Americans, for their own benefit, are obviously unwilling to see Germany win and dominate the whole of Europe. However, the Americans don't want to go shirtless now, so they can only support Britain in this way and let them continue to confront Germany.
?? "Aren't Americans afraid to turn against us if they do this?" William II frowned.
"Father, when the entire European continent is in a mess and all countries are bleeding, the Americans naturally have nothing to fear. Their strong industrial strength and huge population base make them an important country. Whether it is Whichever side you join can play a decisive role. Unless the European war ends and a hegemon really rises. Otherwise, the unscrupulousness of the Americans will never stop at all." Qin Tian said.
??William II's complexion is not very good. This behavior of the Americans made him very angry. If it were him when he was young, he would have declared war on the Americans desperately, letting them know the consequences of provoking the German Empire. However, the current William II is different. He knows that under the current circumstances, Germany can no longer provoke a powerful enemy like the United States. Once the Americans are pushed to the side of the Allies, it will be very detrimental to Germany. Unless Germany can defeat the Allies in this war and become the hegemon of the European continent. At that time, they will have enough strength to confront the United States, or even suppress the United States.
?? It's just that, as the saying goes, bear a knife on the head. Knowing that the Americans are calculating him, but he can only endure it, this is undoubtedly very difficult for William II.
?? "Your Highness, is it possible that we let the Americans harm the interests of the empire so unscrupulously?" Von Falkenhain also said. He was also very angry at this shameless behavior of the Americans.
"At this stage, we really have nothing to do with the Americans. Although our army is number one in the world, it is impossible to attack the United States with the restraint of Britain, France, Russia and other countries. What's more, there is also the barrier of the Atlantic Ocean. Now stage, our task is still to defeat the Allied Powers. As long as we defeat the Allied Powers, then all problems can be resolved." Qin Tian said.
?? "Oscar, is there no other way?" William II asked.
"Father, unless our navy defeats the British navy next year. At that time, we will have a strong force to target the Americans. Even with a strong navy, we will directly and completely block the UK and prohibit ships from any other country from going to the UK. Britain is completely trapped to death, and this will definitely not be difficult." Qin Tian said.
?? "Is there going to be a decisive battle with the British navy next year? The navy will definitely win, right?" William II asked.
"Yes, Father. Next year, the Navy's 'Bavaria-class' battleships and 'Mackenson-class' battlecruisers will be in service. We will add eight capital ships equipped with 380mm main guns, which will make our navy more powerful. Great advantage. At that time, we will definitely be able to defeat the British." Qin Tian seemed very confident.
??In the previous naval battles, the German Navy had already caused the British Navy to lose more than ten capital ships, and they were all new capital ships of the British Navy. This has made the German Navy really overtake the British Navy. Even if the British Navy still has powerful "Queen Elizabeth-class" battleships and "Revenge-class" battleships in service, the German Navy is not afraid at all. It can be said that once there is a decisive battle with the British Navy, the German Navy will inevitably win.
?? After all, Qin Tian still has too many cards in his hand. In addition to the main fleet, there are aircraft carriers and submarines. These weapons can all pose a deadly threat to the main fleet of the British Navy.
??Combining these reasons, the strength of the German Navy is definitely the number one in the world, and it has surpassed the Royal Navy by a lot.
