The Third Reich: I seized power

In his Kremlin office, Joseph summoned the commander of the Navy, Orlov.

“Orlov, how is the Navy’s shipbuilding program going?” Joseph asked.

“Your Excellency Grand Elder, I have to regret to tell you that it has not gone well. Although we have organized several design bureaus and shipyards to jointly develop it. But the gap between us and the West in many key technologies is so great that we simply cannot build a qualified warship. Orlov looked frustrated.

The gap in science and technology makes the dream of the Mao Bear Navy only on paper.

If those warships are built in backward conditions, I am afraid that there will be no use at all, and only those backward warships will be built. In future naval battles, I am afraid that they will be vulnerable to the warships of Western powers.

And this, naturally, is also what Joseph and Orlov and others do not want to see.

“Your Excellency Grand Elder, is the attitude of the Eagle Sauce Country still very resolute? Even if we pay a high price, will we not build it for us? Orlov asked.

At one point, they hoped to be able to spend money, and then the Eagle Sauce Country would build battleships for them.

However, this was rejected by the Eagle Sauce Country.

Joseph shook his head: “Even if I raise the price to 100 million US dollars a ship, the Eagle Sauce Country is equally unwilling.” The Western world simply does not want to see our navy become stronger. ”

You know, the cost of $100 million is already very high. And that’s just a battleship with a main gun caliber of 406 mm. The legendary battleship of the Eastern Empire, the Yamato-class battleship, cost only 280 million yen. At the current exchange rate, it’s less than $100 million. Of course, after the outbreak of war, the exchange rate will change, so that after converting to dollars, the price is higher.

“Damn Eagle Sauce Country!” Orlov couldn’t help but scold.

“Orlov, now there is an opportunity, I think we should seize it!” Joseph said.

“Your Excellency Grand Elder, what opportunity?” Orlov quickly asked.

The Hairy Bear Alliance’s naval strength is so weak that he, the naval commander, has no status in the military at all, and is completely incomparable with the other two branches of the military.

Don’t talk about the army, that’s naturally Big Brother. Even the emerging Air Force has a much higher status than the Navy.

If there was an opportunity with this, Orlov was naturally unwilling to give up.

“The Third Reich should have heard that we were going to develop a navy. Therefore, the Navy was invited to send a delegation to the Third Reich and was ready to cooperate with us in this regard. Joseph said.

“Your Excellency Grand Elder, this is definitely good news! We must not miss it. The shipbuilding technology of the Third Reich was still quite good. In the last war, they were able to build better warships than the Sun Never Set Empire. Even if they have been stagnant for more than ten years, with their scientific and technological strength, they can definitely build warships with advanced performance. This opportunity is very important to us and we must not miss it. Orlov was very excited.

He knew that this was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the navy of the Mao Bear Alliance, and he must not miss it.

Joseph nodded, agreeing that this might be the only chance for the Hairy Bear Alliance to develop its navy.

“Well, in that case, then you should prepare and lead a delegation to visit the Third Reich. As long as the conditions of the Third Reich were not too harsh, we cooperated with them. In addition to having the Third Reich help us build our warships, it is more important that we need their full set of technology. So that we can build those warships ourselves in the future. Joseph instructed.

Joseph knew very well that it was impossible to buy a powerful navy by buying, and that he had to get advanced technology and be able to build it himself.

“Yes, Your Excellency Grand Elder!” Orlov nodded.

Immediately afterwards, Orlov began to transfer personnel from the Navy to form visiting delegations.

Two days later, Orlov reported to Joseph on the composition of the delegation.

In addition to Orlov himself as the head of the visiting delegation, General Kuznetsov, General Isakov, as well as Kasakov and Beczynsky of the Naval Ship Design Bureau and others, also visited the Third Reich.

The Hairy Bear Navy needed to examine the ships and designs of the Third Reich in order to determine whether it was suitable for the Hairy Bear Navy.

After that, it was necessary to study the conditions of cooperation proposed by the Third Reich.

Once both parties can reach an agreement, the next step of cooperation will begin.

“Orlov, despite the difficulties of our country. But we still need a strong navy. Therefore, this visit to the Third Reich must be as agreed as possible to achieve our goals! Joseph said.

“Yes, Your Excellency Grand Elder!” Orlov nodded.

What they didn’t know was that Hess had dug a huge hole for the Hairy Bear Alliance and was waiting for them to jump in.
