The Rise of the Empire

"I rub! The German imagination is still very rich. There are several common layouts in the dreadnought era! Why did Nassau and Helgoland in history choose the worst layout?" With emotion, he flipped through the hill-like files beside him, and shook his head involuntarily.

"Okay, guys, can we hurry up? Don't waste time on plans that are destined to be thrown out!" The prince knocked on the table. "The design of some things is obviously lagging behind the times, even inferior to our existing warships, and some things are too small in size. We can eliminate these first, or make our work more efficient!"

"Wipe, you are now starting to eliminate your opponent? Too arrogant?!" Tirpitz's head buzzed. I thought, this prince is really tough... Looking at the few people next to them, they also had some dissatisfaction in their eyes, but no one dared to say it for a while.

The high weight of the opponent is one aspect, but they also know the technology! There are a few people left. If they are not counted as staff, they can't be beaten by the prince. Of course, you can't be beaten if you count the staff. Count Vittorio is too strong, and the level is higher! A hooligan who has the power and money, and his professional counterpart, ask you if you are afraid!

"But the designer should also be given a chance, wouldn't it be nice to just wipe it out without listening to their excuses?" Admiral Liao Le looked at Tirpitz, who was lying next to him, and couldn't help but sigh. Tone. It should have been Tirpitz’s Admiralty who was responsible for the material preparations of the navy, including the tendering of battleships. At this time, it would be most appropriate for him to speak out, but obviously, Tirpitz was instigated, so he could only be the navy. The head of the office stood up.

"Then who can explain to me, what is the rationale for the No. 1 proposal from the Volkeng shipyard? The six turrets are arranged in a diamond shape on the battleship. Such a bad design except for the fact that I sold it to the Russians and Japanese. In addition to using this method on the battleship of China, who of you have seen such a bad layout?" Prince Ruprecht threw one of the documents in front of the opponent!

"The design of the Volkeng plant considers two situations. The first situation is that when the fleet is attacked by fire from both sides, it can fight against both sides at the same time, and the second situation is when one side of the fire is damaged or the personnel are tired. You can use the firepower on the other side to make up for it." Admiral Ball said.

"Are you kidding? The German navy’s combat distance is 7 to 8 kilometers away. If the other side flanks our warships, how do they coordinate? Even if we take a step back, they successfully implemented the flanking attack. When the squadrons are very strong, then I would like to ask, why don't we choose to retreat? Even if we know the situation of the battle is extremely bad, we will die?" The prince smiled directly.

"We use 6 turrets, but we can only use the firepower of 4 turrets at most. Who can tell me, what is the value of this plan? Relatively speaking, Volkeng's No. 2 plan is more reliable, and we met directly. The layout of the Mainz-class armored cruiser has the firepower of eight main guns within a certain angle of the side chord," said the prince.

"Then you mean, do you think Volkeng's No. 2 plan has merits?" Prince Heinrich, who has not spoken, asked tentatively.

"At least it's better than plan 1." The prince said.

"So, do you think this is okay? The Vulkeng Shipyard's No. 1 plan is invalidated, and the No. 2 plan passed the pre-selection." Prince Heinrich said.

"Okay, yes!" Wang Zixin said that this retreat-based plan is amazing! Abandoning a plan that will inevitably fail, and sending another plan up at the same time, this is a clever way of losing the **** and protecting the car. But the prince didn't say much, because this No. 2 proposal does have certain merits, and it is not appropriate to throw it away at the first trial. After all, they are designed according to the layout of Mainz.

"His Royal Highness, I have carefully read the Bavarian designs. Generally speaking, these designs are very good from the data point of view. The triple-mounted turret, the new three-row boiler layout, the new underwater defense system and so on. Very thoughtful, It's also very attractive. But what I want to say is, are these designs too avant-garde? Especially the triple-mounted turret. This is a bit difficult." Tirpitz also put down his work.

"There are some avant-garde, and there are also some risks, but we are willing to take this risk. If the warship fails to meet the expected standards due to design problems, we can compensate or make improvements for free in Bavaria. This is always okay? And if other shipyards There is a problem with the plan, can they make the same promise as us?" The prince asked rhetorically.

"But this battleship with a total displacement of 26,000 tons is still a bit larger. It is beyond the construction capacity of most of our shipyards, so we can't give all orders to Brom-Forth Shipyard and Germania Shipyard. "" Admiral Liao Le said.

"Oh, I understand. It turns out that you are thinking about how to divide the cake, not how to make the cake! Is it our fault that other factories have hardware shortcomings? What is the purpose of the bidding? Excellent? Competition is efficient~www.NovelMTL.com~ Do Prussian capitalists regard the naval construction plan as a feast? Should Bavaria be excluded?" the prince said angrily!

"I don’t mean that, Your Royal Highness. The expansion of the navy requires a lot of shipyards. In order to ensure that a sufficient number of warships can be built, we must consider the technical conditions of other shipyards. Your warships are technically difficult and the cost is too high. What we have to consider. What we want is not the most advanced weapon, but the most suitable weapon." Prince Heinrich came over immediately.

"Do you think this is okay? If Bavaria can come up with a three-pack turret finished product, then all three-pack turret plans can pass the preliminary review, how?" Tirpitz proposed a compromise.

"All the twin turrets of the new warship are also new. Do you ask Krupp to take out samples of the new twin turrets now? Both are new turrets. Why do we in Bavaria need to take out samples now? This is not fair!" The prince retorted.

"How about within half a year? Before the warship puts down the first keel, we take out samples of all the subsystems!" said the prince.

"His Royal Highness, we can't decide this, we can only leave it to the Kaiser to decide. We can put this issue aside and discuss other issues." Seeing that the situation was getting deadlocked, the two sides decided to put it aside for now. To ease the conflict with each other.
