Chapter 1332 Preparations for the Navy 2

"If the supply on the front line can be guaranteed, the transportation of materials can be reduced. In addition, the transportation of all personnel must be sufficient to provide escort for destroyers and light cruisers, and it can only be transported during the day, and the number of personnel on each ship must be limited." The prince said.

"People transportation is not difficult, and relatively speaking, it is safe, because now we have a large number of high-speed cruise ships in our hands. Because they are close, they can sail at the maximum speed, with speeds of more than 20 knots, and if you pay attention to avoiding it, the efficiency of the submarine is very low. Moreover, in order to improve the sink resistance, we filled the watertight compartment with cork and cement to prevent water inlet, and removed unnecessary equipment to increase reserve buoyancy. Therefore, even if you are hit by one torpedo, there will be no damage."

"The real difficulty is equipment transportation, whether it is tanks, artillery, ammunition, food and other materials, which are really heavy. You plan to send 5 divisions of 100,000 troops to the Bay of Riga at one time and bring enough weapons and supplies for one month of combat. How can you say this? It is relatively tight in terms of scale and time." Admiral Feng Liaole, who assisted in the arrangement of the entire plan, said with some complaints.

"That's it. You see, is it OK? We can consider reducing the transportation of some heavy equipment, but the firepower, personnel and supplies of the troops must not be insufficient. Based on the principle of helping with more work and less work pressure, I hope the navy's land artillery troops can expand the scale. Although it is difficult to dismantle 150MM heavy cannons, it is easier to dismantle 88MM anti-lightning guns, 105MM artillery, and 150MML45 artillery for submarines, right? By the way, you can help with artillery personnel."

After saying that, the prince glanced at the entire venue. "If you don't say anything, then I think you have accepted this request. The Navy's operation was relatively late, and it is estimated that there will be 5 weeks left. The gun stand will be provided by us. The improvement work will be handled by the Navy itself. The specific quantity and organization will be given to you by my staff!"

"Then what's the return of the system?" Sher boldly put forward his opinion at the instigation of others. "We can't go up with a warship without a sub-cannon next time when we face to face with the British Navy, right?"

"I will also participate when I fight with the British Navy next time. I will never let the fleet have no secondary guns! This is a joke about our lives. Do you think I am such a person?" the prince said angrily.

"In addition, the German Navy is His Majesty's navy, but everyone, tell me your conscience, are you getting less benefits from me?! Let's not talk about the planes, no one of you has ever drunk wine from Bavaria for free, your subordinates, on average, canned food produced from Bavaria in two days. How about you, Yusi, say such things to me?" The prince looked at the entire venue, and an invisible pressure enveloped the entire conference room.

To be honest, no one here will care about the wine brought by the prince. Those who can sit here will at least be the lieutenant general. Not to mention the high salary given to the naval personnel by the empire. Just relying on their respective family backgrounds, they will not be unable to drink black market wine. For them, especially the front-line personnel of the navy, the real big head is the supplementary supplies provided by the Bavarian Kingdom to the navy. You must know that although the situation is much better than history, the supplies are still subject to the rationing system. Without combat missions, the living standards of middle and lower-level officers and soldiers are still not high. The so-called soldiers rely on their stomachs to fight and cannot eat enough to make a ball! At this time, as a qualified senior management, we must consider how to meet the basic material needs of soldiers!

"Everyone, don't think I'm exaggerating. I'm very serious. I'm also a leader. My subordinates also have to fight. They need enough food and drink. And I think that as long as the navy can squeeze out a little bit from the cracks of the hand, it will be enough to provide half of the firepower support of the landing troops!" The prince knocked on the table with a pen and said a little slutty. Madan, compared to knocking people with his cane when the German Emperor was unhappy, the prince felt that he was already very polite to them!

As the prince said, if the navy is willing to provide manpower, artillery and ammunition, it can indeed reduce a lot of pressure. The cannons are directly on the ship, such as smaller cannons, such as 88MM cannons and 105M code cannons, which can be removed at any time. The 150MML45 heavy naval gun in the turret or gallery is not easy to work on? It doesn't matter, it's use to remove the deck cannon from the submarine. Anyway, there are a lot of inventory, and many submarines are not performing their missions for the time being.

To be honest, there are many good things in the light artillery of German ships, such as the 105MML45 naval gun equipped on light cruisers, destroyers, and submarines, and the barrel weight is only 1450KG. The grenade weighs 25.5KG and the warhead weighs 17.4KG. It can shoot 12,700 meters at a 30-degree elevation angle. If it is increased to 45 degrees by the upper army gun mount, the effective range is conservatively estimated to be around 16,000 meters? At least it is enough to suppress the Russian army in terms of range.

For example, the 150MML45 deck cannon used on a submarine, including the weight of the gun tail, is less than 4 tons. Although it is the same length as the 150MM sub-cannon barrel on the naval battleship, it is nearly 2 tons lighter. The latter's cannon weighs 5730KG! Of course, this weight comes at a cost. The initial velocity of this cannon is not very high, and the initial velocity of the muzzle is only 680 meters per second. But what does this matter? Anyway, you are suppressing the cannon, not letting you attack warships with certain armor protection. The range of 30 degrees is nearly 15 kilometers. I would like to ask if you are afraid! The 45.3KG warhead is also powerful enough. What a high-quality land cannon!

As for the 88MM anti-lightning gun (anti-air anti-aircraft gun), the thing is lighter, and can even be installed directly on the vehicle and maneuver at a high speed, accompanying the troops' advancement. The initial velocity of up to 890 meters per second is full of penetrating shells. The most reliable direct aiming firepower of the frontline troops, let the 75MM rapid-fire cannon go to the hell! The most important thing is that this cannon has sufficient ammunition reserves. Take the German main ship as an example. A main ship has 16 88MM rapid-fire cannons on it, and the base number of this gun is as high as 400 rounds...

Think about it, from 88MM cannons to 105MM cannons to 150MM cannons, this almost covers the normal category of artillery from regiment-level to army-level! Although the submarine uses a 150MML45 initial speed, it is also a cannon! Moreover, the artillery mounts of these cannons are ready-made. As long as they can handle the navy, personnel, artillery and even ammunition are directly taken from the fleet, and there is no need to travel thousands of miles from Bavaria. Why did the prince give them so many benefits? Isn't it just for today... Then you told me that no? Believe it or not, turn the table up and show you today?!
