Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III

On the naval pier in Kiel Harbour, the battleship ‘Nassau’ was covered with streamers.

The military band is playing majestic music, and the entire Navy Pier seems to be jubilant.

Every admiral had a proud smile on their faces.

Last year, the battleship “Intrepid” of the Sun Never Sets Empire was commissioned, which shocked the world’s navies. However, not long after, the German Imperial Navy had a dreadnought of the same type, or even more powerful, in service.

This is not only a counterattack to the empire that never sets, but also highlights the strength of the Germanic empire.

“Your Majesty, who is stronger than our battleship Nassau and the battleship Intrepid?” Shoubilo asked.

And this problem is undoubtedly also a problem for cabinet ministers and even army generals.

As for the Germanic Imperial Admiralty, they were full of confidence in the Nassau-class battleships.

“Whether it is speed or firepower, or defense, the battleship “Intrepid” is not at all an opponent of our battleship ‘Nassau’ from paper data. Of course, in a real naval battle, there are too many uncertainties. It can only be said that the odds of victory for our battleship “Nassau” are very large! Liu Chuan said.

Suddenly, a smile appeared on everyone’s faces.

Being able to press the sun on the capital ship without setting on it undoubtedly made the high-level officials of the Germanic Empire very happy.

Soon, the commissioning ceremony of the battleship “Nassau” officially began.

“Officers and men of the Imperial Navy, thank you for your service to the Empire. Today, our battleship Nassau entered service, and soon we will have more and more powerful battleships in service. We will also do our best to build more and more powerful warships. The navy will become a sharp blade of the empire, which will open up the territory of the empire and open up a broader living space for the entire Germanic nation! ”

Judging from Liu Chuan’s speech, it greatly boosted the morale of all the admirals.

Opening up territory for the Germanic Empire and opening up a broader living space for the entire Germanic nation is undoubtedly the goal they are fighting for.

From now on, the Germanic Imperial Navy has entered a period of rapid development.

Next, three other battleships of the Nassau-class battleships, Westphalia, Rhineland and Posen, will also enter service.

And next year, and even by the end of this year, the second dreadnought of the German Navy, the ‘Hergoland class’ battleship, will enter service.

The following year, the first battle cruiser of the German Imperial Navy, the Moltke-class, would also enter service.

Moreover, next year and the year after, the construction of new capital ships of the Germanic Empire will begin one after another.

In this way, every year the Germanic Empire will have capital ships in service, and more powerful capital ships will also start construction.

The strength of the entire Germanic Imperial Navy will become stronger and stronger because of this!

The Germanic Empire held an entry ceremony for the battleship Nassau with such fanfare, and naturally could not hide it from other countries. Or rather, the Germanic Empire did not think about secrecy at all.

And this news also caused a great shock in the world.

After all, it is natural that the Sun Never Sets Empire is equipped with dreadnoughts and is at the forefront of the development trend of the world’s navy.

The sun never sets, and the Royal Navy of the Empire has been the hegemon of the sea for hundreds of years.

But the rise of the German Imperial Navy has not been a few years! Even the Germanic Imperial Navy followed with new dreadnoughts, which undoubtedly marked that the world’s navy had moved towards dreadnoughts.

Several other powers, namely Gaul, Tsarist Russia, Caesar, Austria-Hungary and Lighthouse, followed suit.

It can be said that because of the commissioning of the battleship “Nassau”, the navies of various countries have begun to invest heavily in the development of dreadnoughts.

However, the most shocking thing is still the Sun Never Sets Empire.

“Oh God! Didn’t you say that the battleship “Dreadnought” of the Imperial Navy will usher in a new era, and the navies of other countries will simply not be able to compare with us, or even catch up with us? But why is it that our battleship “Dreadnought” has only been in service for half a year, and the Germans have already commissioned a dreadnought.

Even, behind this battleship, there were three ships of the same class. In the Germanic shipyards, more new dreadnoughts are being built. Is this the advantage of the Imperial Navy over the Germans? ”

Herbert Asquith, Prime Minister of the Sun Never Set Empire, who had just taken office, was furious.

Lord of the Admiralty, Sir John Fisher, looked a little embarrassed.

Previously, the , which was blown by the Navy, but now they are slapped in the face.

Or perhaps even Sir John Fisher did not expect that the new dreadnoughts of the German Imperial Navy would enter service so quickly. Moreover, so much was built in one go.

You know, even the Sun Never Sets Empire crossed the river by feeling the stones, and only one was built at the beginning. Subsequently, he dared to start large-scale construction.
