Chapter 1762 Fudge Three
"The reason is very simple. This suggestion is correct. From the perspective of the country, I will definitely support it. The Air Force has already become an important force on the battlefield. How can the Navy do without an independent air force? As for the Marine Corps This is also needed, the army should be mainly used to deal with the future European war situation, and the colonial affairs should be handed over to the more flexible marines." The prince said.
This time, Ruprecht is telling the truth, and he has indeed made a plan to assign an independent air force to the navy after the war and expand the marine corps at the same time. The plight of the air force, the crown prince shuddered. Compared with the United Kingdom and Germany, which hand over most of their aircraft to the air force, His Royal Highness actually prefers the allocation of aircraft between the United States and Japan in history. At the same time, Army Aviation and Hainan Airlines will be established. Army Aviation can set up a separate air force when necessary. And HNA must belong to the Navy!
As for the Marine Corps? This consideration is also from the perspective of the country. Do you really think that after the war is over, the guns can be sent to Kuma and sent to Nanshan? What are you thinking? Think about the red giant in later generations, and think about Britain and France that have not yet collapsed in this war. Although the German Army will be abolished, it will definitely maintain sufficient deterrence.
And overseas colonies? Naturally, this is also something to be taken care of, the so-called mulberry elm harvested in the east. Germany's colony in the Pacific Ocean is gone, so it must be retrieved from other places. At least the Congo, which belongs to Belgium, is a good choice! The prince also plans to get a piece from the British. Of course, it depends on how the navy is fighting. In fact, up to now, relying solely on the army is enough to draw Britain and France. Defeat Britain and France on land at the same time, and then make a fortune in overseas colonies! The prince is also very interested in Zambia's resources!
And these colonies need the army to maintain order. The army used in the European war is obviously not suitable for going to a place like Africa to be a policeman. Therefore, the quick-response Marine Corps came in handy. Mobility and low firepower are just right for the "stability maintenance" mission in Africa.
As for whether there are any considerations for their own interests? Of course, there is, among other things, helping the navy win so many rights and interests, then Bavaria will definitely have an advantage in the choice of equipment for the navy in the future! The so-called human relationship exists at any time and any place! In the case of similar performance, is the person in charge of the navy's bidding embarrassed to reject Bavarian products?
Don't think that after the war, after signing something similar to the naval armament treaty of later generations, it will really stop doing it. It is certain to limit and reduce the number of capital ships, but as a navy of the same level as the United Kingdom and the United States, a large number of cruisers, new destroyers and new The construction of aircraft carriers in China is still quite a lot. These are all business! Don't pay too much attention to the cruiser's ability to die, but compared to the tonnage, the cost is really not cheap...
"Although I am a king, although I don't talk about the benefits of political parties as some people claim, in fact, I care about my country more than those capitalists who don't care who runs the government because whoever comes to power , all need their financial support, and in line with the principle of a businessman, since they have paid money, they must get more in return!"
"But I am different. My family has been tied to the country. Economic interests are not the first choice. The stability and development of the country are the most important. Therefore, Bavaria will pay more attention to people's livelihood than the Prussian parliament with political parties. .Compared to the Junker nobles who think about how to prevent other classes from entering the army all day long, our requirements for the army are also simpler, as long as they can complete the task. Of course, all this depends on the level of the person in power.
And I think that my level is not bad. "The prince's words dispelled Sher's last trace of doubts!
"Okay, I'm almost done with what I'm going to say. My promise has been made. Believe it or not. Then, you can consider your own options on the premise of ensuring the stability of the navy and maintaining combat effectiveness. But no matter what, before you Before making a decision, I hope you can inform me in advance." The prince said.
"This is for sure, Your Highness, believe me, I will definitely make a choice from the perspective of the empire, everything for the empire, everything for Germany!" Admiral Scheer said quickly. "If possible, I hope that you can send some Bavarian troops to maintain order within the Imperial Navy. You know, the military strength within the Empire is already very weak, and I can't tell who is the enemy and who is the friend! "
Admiral Scheer, who completely let go of his guard, finally decided to ask the prince for military assistance. In fact, before that, Admiral Scheer hesitated whether to ask Bavaria to provide military support. Then it is entirely possible to "lead wolves into the house". But it's different now. Admiral Scheer has already agreed with the prince's philosophy, in other words, he has been "fooled and limped". Under such circumstances, Scheer is naturally willing to let the Bavarian Army come in to help "maintain law and order".
As for how to get in? With the prince as the Admiral of the German Navy, Scheer as the commander of the High Seas Fleet, and the practice of sending supplies to the High Seas Fleet every month, it is naturally very easy to squeeze a few people in.
"How many troops do you want?" asked the prince.
"5,000 people?" Scheer thought for a while and said. After all, the German High Seas Fleet has more than 100,000 people, and now they control the major ports. If they want to stabilize these places, they must use a lot of troops, and what is certain is that the reinforcements provided by Bavaria must also be light infantry. After all, ordinary soldiers can sneak in without knowing it with Scheer's acquiescence if they change to a navy uniform, but tanks and heavy artillery definitely can't! A group of Bavarian tanks suddenly appeared in the port of Kiel, which made a big news! And it’s just transportation. In this era, in the Prussian railway system, where did you get the trains to transport the tanks in?
"Leave this question to me. After all, I'm still a field marshal. You can't compare with me in this regard. At most 2 days, the final plan will be delivered to you. If you agree then, it will be implemented like this. "The prince thought for a while and said.
"In that case, I will wait for the good news." Sher nodded and said.
"It's all for the empire." A smile appeared on the corner of Crown Prince Ruprecht's mouth.
