King William II sat in his seat, his face somber as if it was about to drip water. The launch of the British Navy's "Dreadnought" battleship dealt a huge blow to the German Navy.
"Everyone, what do you think of the launching of the battleship 'Dreadnought' of the British Navy for outfitting?" William II looked at everyone blankly. The anger in his eyes couldn't be concealed.
"Your Majesty, the battleship secretly developed by the British in recent years is probably the Dreadnought." Marshal Earl Tirpitz sighed.
"Your Majesty, the British have adopted many advanced design concepts on this new battleship. The most important point is to cancel the secondary main guns and adopt the deployment of full-heavy artillery. However, this is not the same as Prince Oscar's original design. The suggestion is exactly the same. On the British battleship 'Dreadnought', five twin-mounted 305mm main guns were installed. One on the front and rear decks, and one behind the boiler room in the midship of the hull, arranged on the centerline of the hull. ; Between the two boiler rooms, one on each side is symmetrically arranged. The maximum firepower of the whole ship is 8 main guns, and the forward firepower is theoretically 6 main guns. But I personally think that the design of Prince Oscar seems to be better. The three triple-mounted 305mm main guns can all shoot to the side, making the firepower of the side more powerful. Moreover, the triple-mounted main guns are more compact than the double-mounted main guns, making the defense of the battleship stronger. said Prince Heinrich, commander of the High Seas Fleet.
Prince Heinrich's words immediately made Count von Warren, chairman of the Naval Technical Committee, even darker. Who told them to veto Qin Tian's plan? It's a good thing now, but the British use a similar design as their navy's secret weapon. Doesn't this mean that their vision is higher than that of the British? But is this possible? Therefore, this time the entire Naval Technical Committee was slapped in the face. It's all swollen!
Beads of sweat appeared on Count von Warren's forehead. He knew that because of this serious mistake, William II was very dissatisfied with the entire Harbin Wine Technical Committee. Of course, Count von Warren was also very aggrieved and rejected Qin Tian's design. This was the decision of the experts of the Naval Technical Committee. Even though he is the chairman of the Naval Technical Committee, he still needs to follow the opinions of these experts in terms of professional work.
"Your Majesty, do the British really intend to use the battleship 'Dreadnought' as a model for the development of future naval capital ships?" asked the Chief of General Staff Xiao Maoqi. He also felt that on this issue, the German side seemed to have made a dozen mistakes.
"Judging from the information obtained so far, it can be confirmed. The British are already designing the next level of battleships based on the battleship 'Dreadnought'. This makes the battleships we have built and even those still on the berth already Obsolete." Wilhelm II sighed.
In order to pursue a powerful navy, Germany has invested huge sums of money, and only then has the construction plan for a total of 24 battleships of five tiers. Now, the entire construction program is almost complete. But what is unacceptable is that these battleships have become obsolete overnight. Doesn't this show that Germany's huge investment in shipbuilding plans is simply in vain? William II's ambitions for maritime supremacy have become a complete joke. From this, we can feel the anger and unwillingness of William II.
"Your Majesty, it is indeed the mistake of the Naval Technical Committee this time. Our thinking is too rigid to see clearly the future development direction of naval battleships." Count von Warren said with his head down.
Although, their faces have been swollen. However, at this time, he still had to admit his mistake. Who made them ignore this issue at all?
"Your Majesty, the most important issue now is not to pursue the responsibility of the Naval Technical Committee, but to think about how to make up for this serious mistake. The British battleship 'Dreadnought' has made all our battleships obsolete. If we don't think of a way, this will seriously damage our naval development." Prime Minister Bernhard von Bülow said.
If William II insists on holding on to the responsibility of the Naval Technical Committee, this will make the Naval Technical Committee do not know how many people have been implicated. Of course, this will also cause great turmoil in the German Navy and even in Germany, which is not conducive to the social stability of the Empire. Prime Minister Bernhard von Bülow naturally hoped to minimize the impact.
"Hmph! Let's talk about what we should do now? The gap between the Imperial Navy and the British Navy has not narrowed, but has expanded. This will be very detrimental to the Empire!" William II said coldly snort.
All eyes were on Count von Warren's face. Everyone naturally knows what the best solution is? But everyone is also waiting for the statement of the Naval Technical Committee.
Count von Warren knew this too. He knew that it would be impossible not to make a statement now.
"Alas! This time the Naval Technical Committee is really ashamed and humiliated!" Earl von Warren sighed inwardly.
"Your Majesty, from the current point of view, the design of His Royal Highness Prince Oscar is obviously the best choice for the next-level capital ship of the German Navy. His Highness has a far-sighted vision than us old fellows. This time, we must not Dissatisfaction has also given us a deeper understanding of the future development of naval capital ships. When the British took the battleship 'Dreadnought' as a sample for the development of future naval capital ships, we can completely use His Royal Highness Prince Oscar's Design as the next-level capital ship of the Imperial Navy, and on this basis, design the future naval capital ship. In this way, we will not be left too far behind by the British in the navy." Count von Warren said .
Although he tried his best to maintain his peaceful expression, everyone could see that he was trying his best to endure.
"Your Majesty, although this has delayed more than a year, if we catch up, we should be able to catch up. Moreover, it can even shorten the gap between us and the British. Design by His Royal Highness Prince Oscar From the performance point of view, the battleships of the British Navy seem to be a little more advanced than the battleship 'Dreadnought' of the British Navy." Prince Heinrich, commander of the High Seas Fleet, suggested.
