The Rise of the Empire

"Damn it! I'm going to become a real admiral as a nominal admiral?" When Prince Ruprecht received the fleet sailing plan sent by Tirpitz himself, the prince was completely messed up. I was just a navy enthusiast in my previous life, and I have also received some basic naval military education in this life, but these are all supplementary, similar to elective courses in universities. \u003c/p\u003eThe performance in the Toshima naval battle is completely the product of quick wit and hardware advantages. You want to say that it is okay to give some ideas to the navy or warship design, but if you want to formulate a naval plan, then forget it. Aren’t you Tirpitz already the Secretary of State for the Navy? And isn't Admiral von Pohl the commander of the High Seas Fleet? Why can't you discuss it? \u003c/p\u003e"But the final decision must be made by you. The Kaiser has granted you the right to command the task force, and you will be in charge of the entire plan. You will naturally have to look over the final travel arrangements and plans of the Navy." Till Pitts patiently explained on the sidelines. \u003c/p\u003eThe three departments of the German Navy each have their own missions, which is true, but they all operate under the orders of the emperor, and some big things still have to be finalized by the emperor, such as the Bavarian class in history The battleship construction plan was decided by William II. When Tirpitz was entangled in whether the new battleship would use 10 350 guns or 8 406 guns, the Kaiser directly proposed a plan for 8 15-inch guns. \u003c/p\u003eSimilarly, during wartime, the Kaiser can be directly removed from office because of the dereliction of duty of the former commander of the German High Seas Fleet Ingenuel. And Scheer must obtain the consent of the Kaiser if he wants the High Seas Fleet to take major actions. Does the Kaiser understand the navy? Maybe he knows a little bit, but he is definitely not from a major. But people have the right to decide. \u003c/p\u003eAnd now, when the Kaiser delegates part of the power to the prince, the prince's authority over the German task force is equivalent to the Kaiser's authority over the German navy, regardless of whether the prince understands or does not understand, and regardless of the decision made by participating in this operation Whether it is Tirpitz or Bohr, their plans must be approved by the prince before they can take effect. Of course, this document will eventually be uploaded to the Kaiser, but the latter step is just a formality. \u003c/p\u003eThe prince felt that all this was a little inconsistent, even a little unbelievable, but he was relieved immediately. The future US defense ministers are all civil servants, and that buddy named Rumsfeld focused on advancing the armored vehicle rapid response brigade, and was beaten by the rpg gods face off. The United States is like this, so it’s not a big deal for Germany on this plane to let itself be a time traveler... \u003c/p\u003eOf course, what confuses the prince the most is that whether it is Tirpitz or Bohr, they actually take it for granted. The respect shown in front of them is definitely not just brought about by their status! Instead, he really regards the prince as a boss he can rely on, what a deal! But soon, the prince was relieved again, and the basic work was formulated by professional consultants. I don't need to worry about it, the most important thing is to deal with the special situation, but considering that the opponent I am facing this time is very weak, the special situation will not be so special. \u003c/p\u003eThinking about it again, even Betty, who suppressed his colleagues and sold his teammates several times, can be remembered in history. I, the person who participated in and directed the world's first pre-dreadnought battleship battle, is not considered the chief officer. Too much.... Well, it's useless to say more, let's look at the plan first. \u003c/p\u003e"According to the plan, once the war breaks out, the entire fleet will be divided into two divisions. The battleship Kaiser and the armored cruiser Munich will form Group A. After they complete preparations in Brazil, they will go straight to the Lobito area in central Angola. The b fleet, composed of the armored cruiser Marquis Bismarck and the Hamburg, will set off from Namibia and head straight for the Luanda area."\u003c/p\u003e"Each squadron will carry 2 troop carriers and 4 supply ships,

There are also 4 minesweepers. When capturing the port, the Munich-class armored cruiser will be responsible for covering, while the capital ship will be responsible for peripheral security. After capturing the port, armed merchant ships will take over the defense of the port. The armored cruiser Hamburg will join Fleet A, while the armored cruiser Mainz will go to Cabinda and cover the army to capture it. "Admiral von Pohl briefly introduced the situation. (You can look at the map, Angola has an enclave)\u003c/p\u003e "In the entire African region south of the equator, the only one that has the ability to compete with our fleet Only the Royal Navy, but they have been busy fighting in South Africa lately. The army's artillery and gunners were not enough. A large number of British warships cruising in South Africa rushed to South Africa, and some naval guns and a large number of gunners were deployed to form a marine artillery team to support the battle. The remaining sailors were also temporarily incorporated into the Marine Corps. Judging from the current intelligence, the British have drawn at least about 5,000 sailors to participate in the land battle. "Tirpitz introduced.\u003c/p\u003e Before the end of the Second World War, the British Royal Navy was more reliable than the Army, and it never disappointed the British Empire. After hearing this information, the prince said in his heart. 1 Britain before the war was very capable of fighting. Although the strength of the Boer army has been substantially improved by itself, it is obvious that the British are not vegetarian. The mobilized empire's combat effectiveness is still off the charts!\u003c/p\u003eThe army has been from It is obvious that it will take a lot of time to recruit the mainland and the colonies, especially the recruitment of heavy equipment. The quick-witted British decisively put their naval personnel into land battles. Although the input of thousands of naval officers and soldiers and a large number of small and medium-caliber naval guns cannot It is said that the offensive of the Boers was contained, but it is still possible to defend the key points!\u003c/p\u003e But this is definitely a benefit for Germany, because in this way, the British Royal Navy is completely unable to interfere, and the gunners and The sailors have switched to land warfare, so there are still manned battleships? Let’s do the math.\u003c/p\u003eA first-class cruiser only has about 600 people (not counting 48 boilers like Qiangsheng.) Including Egypt Including Degas, there are only about 15 first-class cruisers in the UK that can be used. That is to say, at present, almost all the cruisers that the British can cruise near Africa have transferred a considerable part of their personnel to South Africa. The battleships were concentrated in the mainland and the Mediterranean, and they could not appear in Africa in a hurry. In addition to the reaction and preparation time, the British had no intention and power to interfere with Germany's actions.\u003c/p\u003e When it was determined that the British could not meddle in this business, The prince finally breathed a sigh of relief, but soon, another piece of information from Boll made the prince feel a little dangerous. The French had a very powerful fleet in Africa, and they actually deployed battleships in Africa, and more than 1 ship!\u003c/p\u003eThanks to book friends xiaotang246, Slowly Youk, Sea Boundary\u003c/a\u003e~~~, and book friends Yeyumengdie and Baidinglai\u003c/a\u003e for their support~~~!
