"The specifications of this meeting are a bit high!" Sitting in the magnificent hall, Prince Ruprecht looked at Prince William sitting opposite from time to time. In the place where the crown prince started, the imperial prime minister Bismarck was opposite. He, as well as Admiral Von Holman of the Admiralty and the newly appointed Chief of the Navy Rear Admiral Tirpitz. Among these 5 people, 2 princes and 1 prime minister represent the two largest kingdoms and governments in Germany. Five people sat quietly waiting for the arrival of the German Emperor.

  This is to prepare the navy to build! Originally it had nothing to do with Bavaria. To be precise, Bavaria was opposed in history, but on this plane, because of Ruprecht, Bavaria became the most important supplier of German naval equipment! Large-caliber artillery and armored steel were provided by Bavaria, and in addition to the Mainz-class 2 armored cruiser, the design of the Kaiser-class battleship also involved the Bavarian Design Bureau. And this time the German high-level meeting is to finalize the details of this naval expansion plan!

  "What do I mean by rubbing? Am I still a naval professional." While waiting, the bored prince suddenly found an interesting question. Sitting opposite was the crown prince. It is no secret that Frederick III is in poor health. It is inevitable that the crown prince will gradually move towards the front desk. To some extent, he represents the attitude of the future Kaiser, and it is right to sit in the second seat. Then there was Bismarck. Although Bismarck was not very popular with the Kaiser, it represented the attitude of the government.

  And where is your side? Admiral Holman and Tirpitz are both naval personnel. Needless to say, what are they? Representative of Bavaria? Or the chief of the future navy? This is very interesting! If it is the former, you should sit in the starting position of Bismarck. If it is the latter, then you shouldn't! The highest-ranking commander of the Imperial Navy is naturally the emperor, so the following words should include the Navy General Staff, Navy State Secretary, and Fleet Commander. What does it mean to sit in front of them?

"By the way, when I think of it, from the point of view of the position. At any rate, I also bear the title of the imperial admiral. From the actual combat experience, these 3 people are also the most of them! Although they have fought a total of, continue Time is only half a day! Hipper and others have really played a lot. But the status is too low to sit here!" Thinking about the design bureau and factory in his hand, Prince Ruprecht feels more and more It is only natural to sit in this position.

   "I'm going! Lao Tzu's status in the navy seems to be higher than that of Tirpitz forever! This is too much!" The prince was a little airy. Think about it, Prince Heinrich, the younger brother of William II, was just a rear admiral, and in the end he was carrying a bunch of old dreadnought ships. And now! He actually sat on the head of the future Secretary of State of the Navy and Navy Commander! I wiped it! What's the situation? !

  "Be serious. The emperor is here." Just when the prince was a little fluttering, the opposite Prince William motioned with his eyes. This is simply too rare for the proud William. According to William’s style, it’s good not to be prank on others. How can I remind you? This surprised the other three people very much.

"Thank you." The prince responded kindly to William, and then began to sit with bated breath and wait for the arrival of His Majesty the Emperor. As the huge palace door opened, Frederick III was accompanied by his attendants to the conference hall, Ruprecht. I can clearly feel that this German lion has become depressed, although his thinking is still quick, but the pain and the torture of years have made Frederick III a little bit stronger.

   "Very good." Frederick III looked around the participants and smiled with satisfaction. The future emperor and the current prime minister can get along well. The successor of the second largest kingdom in the empire also has a good relationship with Prussia. This at least shows that the German central government is harmonious, and the German states are also harmonious. What? You say Saxony and Württemberg? Well, now that the relationship between the boss and the second child is good, the opinions of the third child and the fourth child can already be represented. As for Holman and Tirpitz? Well, His Majesty the Emperor directly ignored them, these two buddies are still far behind the first three.

"I used to believe that a weak navy is good for the empire. But now, our concessions and goodwill are understood as cowardice and powerlessness. What happened in 1894 has not gone far, and I think everyone here should still remember it. The imperial navy needs to develop. At least on the scale, it must be able to form absolute suppression of potential opponents while ensuring that the empire’s overseas interests are not violated. The empire cannot accept that the navy is not as strong as the second-tier maritime powers such as France and the United States. We must change." Terri III looked at Bismarck, who was sitting in the second seat on the left, and said, while the Prime Minister chose to be silent at this time.

"Two Brandenburg-class battleships have been launched and are being outfitted. But just two battleships are not enough. In the next 4 years ~lightnovelpub.net~ the Empire will allocate at least 300 million marks to improve our Fleet, then now I want to hear your opinions." The old emperor said.

"Your Majesty, the construction of the navy is a long-term process. In order to ensure a strong fleet, we should pass a bill to ensure the continuity of fleet construction, and set the age limit and update frequency of the fleet's capital ships. There is no vision. The plan cannot support the imperial ambitions.” Tirpitz spoke first.

"The size of our fleet must be able to scare the world's most powerful navy. We must make them realize that if there is a naval battle with the German Empire, their fleet will suffer irreparable losses. We must use our own The sharp blade of the empire is to safeguard the empire's maritime interests, by intimidating opponents, forcing them to make concessions." Seeing that the people around did not speak, Tirpitz became bold.

"Empty and arrogant remarks. How big is the fleet size to make Britain fear? What will happen after the British fear? The closeness between Britain and France? Or other unforeseen things? If the British do not yield, they will choose to confront. What would happen if the British and the French joined forces against Germany? After the war broke out, what were the strategies and tactics of the Imperial Navy? Have you ever thought about it?" Bismarck was full of hostility towards Tirpitz's plan.
