Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III

“Your Excellency, Your Excellency, Your Excellency, Ministers. From the perspective of the army, the Allies and the Allies had their own advantages. In terms of the Allies, the Germanic Imperial Army was definitely the first in the world. More than forty years ago, when the Germanic Empire was united, the army of the Kingdom of Prussia defeated the Second Gallic Empire, and even the emperor was captured, causing the Second Gallic Empire to collapse.

According to the information we have received, Emperor William III has been strengthening the combat effectiveness of the army since his accession to the throne. It can be predicted that after these years of hard work, the army strength of the Germanic Empire has definitely been greatly improved. Compared to before, the Entente probably did not have any army that could compete with the army of the Germanic Empire.

However, the shortcomings of the Germanic Imperial Army were also obvious, that is, they had to deal with several powerful powers of the Entente almost alone. Although they also had Austria-Hungary and the Kingdom of Caesars as allies. However, the strength of the allies is too weak. The Austro-Hungarian Empire was full of internal contradictions, and the combat effectiveness of the army was greatly affected by this. And the fighting power of the army of the Kingdom of Caesars is not to mention, they cannot even fight the natives of Africa.

Under such circumstances, although the Germanic Imperial Army was very strong, it was also difficult to defeat the Entente on its own. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the German Imperial Army was strong to a very heaven-defying point and was able to quickly defeat several powerful powers of the Entente.

But judging by the current situation, as well as the shortcomings of the Germanic Empire itself. This war will most likely evolve into a long-term war. It’s not easy to tell the difference between winners and losers. ”

Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood laid out his analysis and arrangement.

“That is to say, in fact, the battle situation between the two sides this time is unpredictable?” Grand Commander Wei Erson frowned.

“Yes, Your Excellency. As things stand, it’s hard to see which side will win. However, the advantages of the Entente should be relatively obvious. But it is not ruled out that the Germanic Empire played extraordinarily. There are many uncertainties in war. Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood said.

“In that case, let’s wait for the battle situation to become clear before making a decision and making a choice!” Second Commander William Bryan also said.

“What about the Navy? Which side has the greater advantage? Wilson then asked.

“Your Excellency, there is no doubt that the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Sets Empire is the world hegemon, and they have great advantages in the quality of naval officers and men and the number of warships. However, as an emerging power, the Germanic Empire also developed rapidly in terms of dreadnoughts and superdreadnoughts. Although compared with the Sun Never Sets Empire, there is still a certain gap. However, the gap is not very large.

However, the Gallic State and the Russian Empire, the allies of the Sun Never Sets Empire, also have a certain naval strength. In contrast, the naval power of the Germanic allies, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Kingdom of Caesar, was relatively weak.

From the naval point of view, the advantages of the Sun Never Set Empire are more obvious. But in the same way, the Germanic Empire had a chance to turn around. ”

Admiral William Benson also gave an ambiguous analysis.

However, the high-level of the lighthouse country can also understand. After all, both the Entente and the Allies are powerful. War is often full of accidents. It is not so simple and easy to distinguish between victory and defeat.

If it doesn’t work, it will be a protracted war.

“Your Excellency, the Entente and the Allies, if they are evenly matched, it will be of great benefit to us. This means that it will be difficult for them to beat each other. This war will also go on for a long time. The attrition of war will be very staggering. It can be seen that this will also be very large for the consumption of the European continent. Europe’s centuries-old construction gains are very likely to be destroyed in war. With one trade-off, it will be easier for us to surpass Europe! William Bryan said.

Wilson and the other high-ranking officials of the Lighthouse Nation were all in sight.

For a long time, the lighthouse country was looked down upon by the European continent and regarded as an upstart.

This makes the lighthouse country also very hostile to the European continent, hoping to surpass it one day.

It’s just that the European continent is too powerful and is still the center of the world. Although the industrial output value of the lighthouse country is already the first in the world. However, this is compared to individual countries. If the whole of Europe is added up, I don’t know how many streets to throw the lighthouse country out.

Not to mention, now the lighthouse country is mainly surpassing the old European powers in general industrial manufacturing. In terms of cutting-edge technology, Lighthouse Nation is still lagging behind.

A very glaring problem is that lighthouse countries lag seriously behind in terms of large steam turbines. So much so that the battleships of the Lighthouse Navy are mostly turtle warships that attach importance to firepower and defense, and their speed is very low. In addition, in the manufacture of large-caliber naval guns, the lighthouse country also leaves much to be desired. When the capital ships of the Lighthouse Navy are fired at a concentrated fire, the shells are scattered very much and the hit rate is low. This forced the Beacon Nation to increase the number of artillery in order to obtain a higher hit rate.

If the lighthouse country wants to compare with Europe in terms of cutting-edge technology, the gap is still very large!

“In addition to this, we are able to sell all kinds of war materiel to the warring sides while maintaining neutrality. Once war breaks out, all kinds of materials will inevitably be in short supply, and prices will rise accordingly. We can take this opportunity to make a lot of profit. Even let the wealth of all of Europe gather to us.

War will also cause large numbers of people to flee Europe. That’s also a great opportunity for us. We can attract more talents and further improve our scientific and technological capabilities.

Therefore, the longer the war lasts, the better it will be for us. If this war lasts for a long time and destroys all of Europe, it will undoubtedly be better. In this way, we will catch up with the whole of Europe, and it will be just around the corner.

Plus we can join the war at the right time and be on the side of the victor. After the end of the war, it was able to reap a large number of victory fruits. This is even more conducive to our rise! ”

William Bryan continued.

The Grand Commander nodded again and again, and the other high-ranking cabinet officials also agreed very much.

They all seem to have seen a rapid rise of the Lighthouse Nation.
