Chapter 636 The Overall Situation Has Been Determined

Germany, Berlin, Imperial Palace, Office of Imperial Emperor Qin Tian.

Tonight, Qin Tian made an exception and didn't have dinner with his family. Instead, he asked his secretary to make some random food for dinner. Because, today is the day of the decisive battle between the Imperial Navy and the Allied Navy. After Qin Tian finished his official duties, he waited in the office for news of the naval battle. Qin Tian has already ordered that if there is any news about the navy, report to him immediately.

Although, there is no definite news yet. But Qin Tian still believed that the German navy would definitely win this battle. Although the three countries of Britain, France and Italy have united and assembled a very powerful fleet. However, that was nothing more than a seemingly powerful fleet. In fact, compared with the powerful imperial navy, the gap is not a little bit. Not to mention, the Imperial Navy still has two aircraft carriers to assist in the battle. The Imperial Navy, which has been replaced with a new type of carrier-based aircraft, is even more powerful, enough to tear apart all enemies.

However, there are too many uncertain factors in naval battles. So although Qin Tian was very confident, he didn't dare to really let his mind down until the dust settled.

After drinking a cup of coffee, Qin Tian began to think about the future of the empire. This is what he often does when he has free time.

After the imperial navy finished fighting this war, it had to start to transform. The number of battleships and battlecruisers must be further reduced. Aircraft carriers will replace battleships and battlecruisers as the main force of the Imperial Navy.

In addition, once the empire has received a large number of colonies from the British, maintaining overseas colonies is also an important responsibility of the imperial navy. This makes it necessary for the empire to have a large number of cruisers. Both heavy cruisers and light cruisers are the shortcomings of the German Navy. These are the key developments that the German Navy needs to focus on in the next stage.

Destroyers also require further construction. After the German navy became the number one in the world, in order to fight against the German navy, other enemies may vigorously develop the underwater fleet in the same way as Germany has taken before. At that time, Germany will have to face a large number of submarine attacks. This requires Germany to have a strong anti-submarine fleet. If necessary, the Navy can build a dedicated anti-submarine frigate. Weaken the performance of other aspects, and focus on strengthening the anti-submarine performance. In this case, it will be very effective for the German Navy to deal with underwater threats in the future.

Submarines are also a key development arm of the German Navy. The performance of the submarines of the German Navy is still ahead of the world. However, in Qin Tian's eyes, the performance of the current submarine is still too backward. Among other things, the inability to submerge for a long time, and the inability to attack underwater targets is a flaw. Future naval submarines will develop in this direction.

When Qin Tian went through all these development plans in his mind, Marshal Earl Tirpitz, Minister of the Imperial Navy, and Marshal von Falkenhain, Minister of the Imperial Army and Chief of the General Staff, joined hands to see him.

From the smiles on their faces, Qin Tian guessed the outcome of the naval battle. This made his heart finally go back to his stomach.

"You two, it seems that there is good news for me!" Qin Tian said with a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty. It's very good news!" Marshal Earl Tirpitz blushed with excitement.

"Then I guess our results must be very brilliant. So, what about my loss?" Qin Tian asked.

Marshal Earl Tirpitz was taken aback for a moment. He didn't expect Qin Tian to pay attention to the loss issue first, so he said: "Your Majesty, our loss is not big. In terms of capital ships, except for the battlecruiser 'Blücher' that was lost earlier In addition, the other battleships did not sink, but some battleships were severely damaged. In terms of small and medium-sized battleships, the losses were not large. It can be said that this time the Imperial Navy gained won the naval battle."

Qin Tian nodded. If the loss was slight, it would undoubtedly be the best. In this way, after the end of this war, the Imperial Navy will have sufficient strength to control the global oceans and ensure that Germany's interests in the world will not be violated. Especially after the defeat of the United Kingdom, the British colonial empire will definitely take over in its entirety. Without a powerful navy, the protection of those colonies would be impossible to talk about.

"Then, now you can tell me how great our victory is!" Qin Tian said.

"Your Majesty, during this battle, the Imperial Navy wiped out all the capital ships of the Allied Fleet. Among them, four French and two Italian battleships surrendered to the Imperial Navy. The other capital ships were all killed. The imperial navy sank. The two fleet admirals of the imperial navy sank twelve capital ships of the combined fleet of the Allied Powers in this battle. Even the six captured battleships were due to the aircraft carrier's aircraft The French and Italians were completely frightened by the Imperial Navy's carrier-based aircraft. When the Imperial Navy's carrier-based aircraft hovered over their heads, they naturally chose to surrender." Tirpi Marshal Earl Z said.

"Haha, I didn't expect the aircraft carrier and carrier-based aircraft to perform so well in this naval battle. I think there should be no doubts about establishing aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft as the future development focus of the Imperial Navy, right? "Qin Tian asked.

"Of course, Your Majesty. The entire Imperial Navy supports the development of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft." Marshal Earl Tirpitz said immediately. Facts have proved that His Majesty's vision is completely correct.

Qin Tian nodded, and didn't say any more about this question. Regarding the development of the Imperial Navy, he will find time to discuss it with Marshal Earl Tirpitz in detail.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Navy has once again won a brilliant victory. The navies of the three countries of the Allies have been completely wiped out by the Imperial Navy. There will no longer be any changes in this battle." Von Farr Ken Hain said.

"Yes, after the failure of this naval battle. The French and Italians have no other choice. I believe they will surrender soon. As for the British, they may surrender or they may fight to the end. If they surrender Therefore, the empire must ruthlessly slaughter the British, so that they will never have a chance to develop. If the British choose to resist, then the empire must make preparations to land and fight in the British mainland. Completely destroy Britain!" Qin Tian Said.
