The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 382 Come on, let's use your weapons!

"Damn! The Germans still have a rich imagination. There are several common layouts in the dreadnought era! Why did Nassau and Helgoland in history choose the worst layout?" Prince With emotion, he flipped through the hill-like dossier next to him, and shook his head involuntarily. \u003c/p\u003e "Okay, everyone, can we hurry up? Don't waste time on those plans that are destined to be thrown out!" The prince knocked on the table. "The design of some things is obviously behind the times, not even as good as our existing warships, and some things are too small in size. We can eliminate these first, and it can also make our work more efficient!"\u003c/p\u003e "Fuck, you're starting to eliminate opponents now? Isn't it too arrogant?!" Tirpitz's head buzzed. I thought to myself, this prince is really tough enough... Looking at the few people next to them, they also had some dissatisfaction in their eyes, but dissatisfaction was dissatisfaction, and no one dared to speak out for a while. \u003c/p\u003e The high weight of the position is one aspect, but people also know technology! The remaining few people, if you don’t count the staff, they can’t beat the prince together. Of course, you can’t beat the prince if you count the staff. Count Vittorio is too strong, and his level is a level higher! Powerful, rich, and professionally matched hooligans, just ask if you are afraid! \u003c/p\u003e"But we should also give the designer a chance. Wouldn't it be good to just exclude them without listening to their excuses?" Can't help sighing. Originally, Tirpitz's Admiralty Department was supposed to be responsible for the material preparations of the navy, including the bidding for warships. It is naturally most appropriate for him to come out to speak at this time, but obviously, Tirpitz was counseled, so he can only be let as the navy The chief of staff stood up. \u003c/p\u003e "So who can explain to me, what is the rationale of the No. 1 plan put forward by the Vulcan shipyard? The 6 turrets are deployed on the battleship in a diamond shape. Such a bad design except that I sold it to Russia Who of you has ever seen such a bad layout besides the way used on Japanese and Japanese warships?" Prince Ruprecht threw one of the documents in front of the opponent! \u003c/p\u003e"The design of the Vulcan factory is to consider two situations. The first situation is that when the fleet is attacked by firepower from both sides, it can fight against both sides at the same time, while the second situation is that the firepower on one side is damaged or After the personnel are tired, they can use the firepower from the other side to make up for it." Admiral Ball said. \u003c/p\u003e"Are you kidding me? Now the German navy's battle distance is 7 to 8 kilometers away. If the other side attacks our warships, how do they coordinate? Even if they take a step back, they successfully implemented the flanking attack, And if every squadron of the opponent is very strong, then I would like to ask, why didn't we choose to retreat? We still fight to the death when we know that the battle situation is extremely bad?" The prince laughed angrily. \u003c/p\u003e"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, Vulcan's No. 2 plan is more reliable , directly received the layout of the Mainz-class armored cruiser, the firepower of the 8 main guns within a certain angle of the side string." Said the prince. \u003c/p\u003e "What do you mean, do you think Vulcan's No. 2 plan has merit?" Prince Heinrich, who had been silent all this time, asked tentatively. \u003c/p\u003e"At least it's better than plan No. 1," said the prince. \u003c/p\u003e "So do you think this is okay? The No. 1 plan of the Vulcan Shipyard is invalidated, and the No. 2 plan has passed the pre-selection." Prince Heinrich said along the way. \u003c/p\u003e"Okay, yes!" Wang Zixin said that this retreat-for-advance plan is amazing! Abandoning a plan that is bound to fail, and sending another plan up at the same time,

This is a clever way to lose the pawn and save the car. But the prince didn't say much, because the No. 2 plan did have certain merits, and it was not appropriate to throw it away after the first trial. After all, it was designed according to the layout of Mainz. \u003c/p\u003e "His Royal Highness, I have carefully read Bavaria's design. Generally speaking, these designs are very good in terms of data, including triple turrets, a new three-row boiler arrangement, a new underwater defense system, and so on. Very thoughtful and attractive. But what I want to say is, aren’t these designs too avant-garde? Especially the triple-mounted turret. This is a bit difficult.” Tirpitz on the side also put down the work at hand. \u003c/p\u003e"There are some avant-garde, and there are some risks, but we are willing to take this risk. If the warship fails to meet the expected standards due to design problems, we in Bavaria can make compensation or improve it for free. This is always okay, right? And if there are problems with the plans of other shipyards, can they make the same promise as us?" the prince asked rhetorically. \u003c/p\u003e"But this battleship with a total displacement of 26,000 tons is still a bit bigger. It exceeds the construction capacity of most of our shipyards, and we can't give all orders to Brom-Forth Shipyard and Germanic Ya Shipyard, right?" said Admiral Liao Le next to him. \u003c/p\u003e"Oh, I understand. It turns out that what you are thinking about is how to divide the cake, not how to make it well! Is it our fault that other factories have hardware shortcomings? What is the purpose of bidding? Isn’t it the best of the best? Competition is the only way to be efficient. Don’t the Prussian capitalists regard the navy’s construction plan as a feast? Should Bavaria be excluded?” the prince said angrily! \u003c/p\u003e"I don't mean that, Your Royal Highness. The expansion of the navy requires many 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 expensive. , This is something we must consider. What we want is not the most advanced weapon, but the most suitable weapon." Prince Heinrich immediately came to round up the field. \u003c/p\u003e"Do you think this works? If Bavaria can come up with the finished product of the triple-mounted turret, then all triple-mounted turret plans can pass the preliminary review, how?" Tirpitz proposed a compromise. \u003c/p\u003e"All the dual-mounted turrets of the new warships are also new. Do you ask Krupp to come up with samples of the new dual-mounted turrets now? They are all new turrets. Why do we in Bavaria need them now? Take out samples? That's not fair!" the prince retorted. \u003c/p\u003e "How about within half a year? Before the battleship lays down the first keel, we will take out samples of all subsystems!" said the prince. \u003c/p\u003e"Your 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 going to be deadlocked, the two sides decided to put it on hold for a while. Let go of the conflict with each other. \u003c/p\u003eThe second one is here~~~! Ask for subscription and support~~~! \u003c/p\u003e\u003c/div\u003e
