The Third Reich: The Return of the King

With a bouquet of pure white roses, Mainz ignored the surprised gaze of the sun and the voices of countless reporters chasing the photos, and strode into the largest military port of the Royal Navy in Europe.

The reporters also knew the rules, and the moment the colonel stepped into the largest military port of the Royal Navy, he picked up the camera in his hand and took pictures of this historic scene, and the next day, this picture appeared in major newspapers!

......

Ignoring the filming of these reporters, after entering the military port, Mainz took a serious look.

Scapa Bay is much larger than Mainz imagined, this military port is located in the northernmost part of the Sugoland region, in the semi-enclosed waters of the Orkney Islands, surrounded by the main island of the archipelago, the island of Hoy, the southern island of Ronasay and a small island, is a good natural bay, about 24 kilometers long, 13 kilometers wide, and an area of 130 square kilometers.

The natural condition of this area is excellent, the sea in the middle is very wide, and the bay is surrounded by three outlying islands and a main island, leaving only three narrow exits.

The Royal Navy only needs to build shore defense batteries and set up some obstacles in the three exit straits to prevent the invasion of the enemy, so it is very difficult to sneak up on this place.

It is for this reason that this place has almost never been attacked by anyone, the only exception is that during World War II, the German submarine U-47 under the leadership of the ace captain overcame all odds and dangers to sneak here and attacked the Royal Navy anchored here, this attack caused a lot of damage to the Royal Navy, and the new battleship Royal Oak was sunk in this sneak attack!

After a few casual glances at Mainz and a general memory of the topography of Scarpa Bay, he lost interest in the area.

The home fleet of the Royal Fleet was not in the harbor today, so he couldn't spy on too much information, and he just remembered the distribution of the docks in the military port, the layout of the warehouses, and the arrangement of the fleet's supporting facilities, so he withdrew his gaze.

After all, there were more than a dozen police and soldiers staring at him who never set, and if he blatantly looked around, these people would probably kick him out immediately!

This time, Scapa Flow's theme was for the public to visit the sunken High Seas Fleet, so everyone was quickly led to the area where the High Seas Fleet sank itself.

As soon as they arrived, Mainz was attracted by a huge battleship, which was once the flagship of the High Seas Fleet - the battleship Baden, which was salvaged by the British when it sank, so that half of it can still be seen, and the other half is under the sea.

Except for the lucky Baden, all the other warships died in the sea!

Thinking of this, Mainz's mood became a little heavy, and the expression on his face became solemn.

Although in the First World War, the German navy did not play too brightly, but in the end they did not end up much better than the army, the army could still save the scale of 100,000 people, and the navy simply lost a single ship, all of them sank!

The colonel took a deep breath, dropped the bouquet of white roses in his hand, closed his eyes, and remained in a position of silence.

Not surprisingly, this scene was also captured by the reporters who followed it, and a large number of reporters captured this scene at this moment, along with the previous picture of Colonel Mainz stepping into Scapa Bay, both of which will make the front page headlines tomorrow!

It's just that the journalists are a little strange, will the silence of the German colonel be a little too long?

Isn't this kind of thing just a meaning?

Why do you need to be silent for so long?

Unbeknownst to them, the reason why Colonel Mainz didn't move was entirely because he was attracted by the mission reward he had just received!

"Is this the complete set of design drawings for the Bismarck-class battleships?".

Seeing what looked like a hill of blueprints, Colonel Mainz was visibly taken aback.

[The design of a naval warship is a very complex thing, a large warship may have thousands of cabins inside, and each compartment needs to be drawn and composed, so the design drawings of a complete warship may be as high as several tons, and the drawings given by the system are already streamlined, so it is not too much!].

Well, Mainz has accepted this explanation of the system, anyway, these drawings are not for him, but for those designers, it doesn't matter how much, but the more detailed, the better!

[The system prompts that the Bismarck-class battleships faced some problems at the beginning of the design, such as the poor level of the German army's artillery, which led to the installation of only two turrets, and the inability to install the mainstream triple turrets, which greatly affected the firepower of the entire battleship, and the caliber of the main gun was only 381 mm, which naturally had an advantage in the face of a battlecruiser like the Hood, but if it faced the main battleship of the U.S. Army, the Ayiva-class or the Yamato-class battleship of the foot basin, there would be no advantage at all, so whether the host should modify these problems？】

Just as Mainz was exclaiming for so many drawings, a word from the system pulled his thoughts back.

"Hmm, can these things be improved?".

Hearing the system's words, Mainz was a little surprised.

[Of course, it can be modified, in fact, not only warships can be modified, but other weapons such as aircraft, tanks, and even weapons such as machine guns and even rifles can be modified, but this requires the host to pay a certain fee!]

Well, no wonder the system reminded this guy kindly, it turned out that he wanted to charge!

However, if you can do things with money, it is actually a good thing, after all, you can improve the equipment level of the army and equip the army with better and more advanced weapons, which is of great significance to the future Third Reich, after all, they do not have the accumulation of hundreds of years of Britain and the United States, they want to build a navy, then they have to start from scratch, so the number of warships in the German army is definitely not as good as that of Britain and the United States.

Since it can't be compared in terms of quantity, it can only be considered in terms of quality!

It's just that the Bismarck-class battleships have so many problems, and if all these problems are changed, how good should Bismarck be?

Mainz couldn't help but look forward to it, and he couldn't wait to see the day when the improved Bismarck-class battleship was launched!
