Chapter 110 Two systems

In the center, most of the people watching the battle were just watching the fun. Seeing the shells falling, the officers who only knew a little bit did not say anything. Some were clever and even saw something, and they were very careful not to get into the discussion, but they knew very well that Mi Ke might have really been involved in a big deal.

Next to Schell, no one paid attention to Mike. They paid more attention to this command system. In just one or two hours of exercise, the strength shown by the command system made them look at it with admiration. As senior officers of the navy, the commander of the battleship's captain, the commander of the special fleet, the senior officers knew very well that such a set of aiming systems was simply a multiplier of the fleet.

First of all, they were allowed to accept the aiming of the sight. The most advantage of aiming was to hit accurately. Today's exercise showed more things. The ability to integrate the sight and the command system. When the fleet did not form a battle line, the forces of the fleet were combined to strengthen the attack. There was no need for warships to form a battle line. When they were free to move, they could be fused together. The attacks could not be increased much, and the survival ability was greatly improved.

For example, the battleship duels in the current battleships are just like in the era of platoons decades ago. Both sides stood in rows and shot each other. The battle lines were lined up in rows, with concentrated firepower and increased hit rate. Everyone knew that this was a death sentence. Standing in rows would definitely be hit. This was the best method at that time. The dense enough firepower would cause greater lethality to make up for the lack of shooting. The more determined the rows and the less afraid of death, the more you can win.

The same is true for battle lines. If the battle lines are formed, it is necessary to ensure enough projection and relatively dense firepower density, which is a manifestation of gaining the upper hand in naval battles. However, now, using this aiming system is like using the faster firing rate later. The range is longer, and in the scattered situation, the same shooting accuracy is obtained. In this case, who will still stand in a row, hide in the standing first, protect themselves, and attack the enemy, trench station, etc. will gradually develop.

If there is a whole. Install this on every German warship, what is this concept? It is absolute murder and absolutely prevailing. Get her and must get him. At all costs, this is a recognized choice for all senior generals.

Schell immediately found the engineer responsible for testing this system and asked to introduce this targeting system, but was rejected by the engineer. He was only responsible for this test, and the rest would be discussed with the senior management of the Northwest.

Sheer also knew that the engineer could not decide on such a thing, so he immediately took the destroyer and headed to the V2 ship. He met Cheng Biguang who was still there. This time he was responsible for the targeting system.

Cheng Biguang told him calmly that support is OK, but introduction is not allowed. Sheer was very strange. This was completely different from the performance of Northwest before. Could it be that he showed this system? It was not for selling, or for gaining greater benefits.

Cheng Biguang calmly told him that he concentrated all the high-precision processing in the northwest, and with some luck, he obtained a system, which represents the highest technology in the northwest. There is almost no replication, so it cannot be popularized. In order to ensure the confidentiality of this system, the northwest must be manipulated in the entire process. This is beyond doubt, otherwise, I would rather give up this system.

Seeing Cheng Biguang's resoluteness surprised Sheer, but he didn't say much, weighing in his heart what the Northwest plan was. But next, Cheng Biguang continued to talk and also set up a security system. Once any problems arise, the commander inside will destroy this system. In the whole world, there is only one such system, not even China itself.

Giving all the fate to the Northwest is something that Scher was unwilling to give up, so he had to end this conversation. When he returned to the fleet, the other officers came forward to ask about the results. When Scher said the Northwest's request, the first thing he realized was Havali. He said loudly as if he was stepped on: "No, absolutely not. This command system is related to our German lifeline. If they let them manipulate it, isn't it equivalent to handing over our lives to others? This is absolutely not possible!"

The other officers, generally speaking, had the same idea. They were reluctant to leave this system and were unwilling to control this system in the hands of the Northwest people, even if they were allies. Although their fleets were obtained from China, Germany also paid considerable benefits. The most important thing is that this may be the most powerful warship of the Royal Navy.

"Maybe?" Scher raised his eyebrows, as if he had thought of something, but suddenly shut up. Some things were not enough to say too much. The officers present were qualified to know, that is, Havari, it seemed that they were just talking about it privately.

The exercise was over, just one morning. After a wonderful exercise, the fleet's mentality relaxed a little. Next, it was to pack up and go back. The officers had the task of the officers, while the sailors were discussing how the aiming system in the northwest was magical and why it was so outstanding.

In Scher's office, Havali, who was called, understood what Scher was thinking. Before Scher could speak, he asked first: "Do you want to agree? What are you kidding us? Take our lifeline into the hands of the Chinese!"

Schell didn't say anything, looked at Havali seriously and asked calmly: "Havari, as far as you know now, plus our fleet, is the Royal Navy a rival to the British Navy!"

Havari didn't expect that Schell would ask this question directly. They were all senior generals of the naval forces. By 1914, the naval strength of Britain and Germany was almost 29 to 1. Even if they had 9 of them, the number of Germany was still a little worse. Even if the Northwest warships were relatively powerful, who knows whether Britain had hidden strength? If the war really started, Germany might have a little advantage in terms of victory rate.

Even after a balance between the two sides is in a bad way, Germany's recovery ability and shipbuilding ability are far from comparable to that of Britain. Such a strategic goal is still impossible to achieve. For Germany, the best result is to defeat Britain, and to defeat Britain under small losses and relatively big victories.

Havari knew this. He and Scher were both senior officers. He also had Junker's background. He knew more than Scher. Even if the special mixed fleet performed well, Germany was unlikely to have funds and continued to increase warships, including 27 main battleships and more than 19 ships of all sizes. The strength of the German navy almost doubled compared to before the war, which put a lot of pressure on the finances.

The naval fleet is always a beast of gold swallowing. It can be swallowed up by any amount of money, and there is no possibility of filling it. After the war broke out, Germany's expenditure surged, but its income not only did not increase, but even decreased. This is why Germany was trying to conquer Paris regardless of face and plundered all kinds of wealth from Paris. The reason is that it was that it had no money.

Although the special mixed fleet is good, it is too expensive. The fantasy level is almost 2% more expensive than the latest Bavarian level, and the Orion change is almost more expensive than the King level. They know that the Northwest also gives a conscience price, and the navy's funding has not increased much. Even under the premise of the prevailing army wars, some military generals have already complained about the navy.

Thinking of this, Havali was not as confident in speaking. He still said to Schell with certain concerns: "The Special Mix Fleet is the largest main battleship fleet outside the Royal Navy. This command system can coordinate the overall situation. It is almost equivalent to entrusting the fate of Germany to this fleet. Is this appropriate?"

A flash of light flashed in Scher's eyes and said, "Have you noticed that today's test, the distance between the two sides is at least .5 nautical miles!"

".5?" Havari was also a senior officer. He thought of this data sensitively. It was about 15 kilometers to convert it into metric system. He suddenly understood what Scher meant and said, "What do you mean?"

"That's right, it's what you think. In order to avoid problems, we can use its aiming and command system for more than 15 kilometers, or even more than 12 kilometers. When we reach within 12 kilometers, we will still fight according to the previous routine!"

This is a solution that is the best of both worlds. Havali has to admit that Schell's entry point is excellent. 12 meters is a hurdle. Even with the Fantasy level and Orion changes, coupled with Schell's proposal, the range of the artillery has gradually increased from 6 meters to 10,000 meters, or even close to 12 meters. This is a huge improvement compared to Germany's previous goal method. With the traditional aiming method, more than 12 kilometers is still a penalty area, an almost impossible restricted area.

Use this restricted area to use the aiming system in the northwest. The aiming system is quite amazing between 12 nautical miles away. Even if there is a problem, they can adjust it in time. The only thing they need to do is to be compatible with two systems, which will make the personnel a little bloated. However, for battleships with 50,000 tons and 15 people, there are dozens or even hundreds of people. Is this a problem?

Of course this was not a problem. Scher finally convinced Havari that the two men reached a unified opinion within an hour or two, and sent a telegram to Berlin in the name of the special mixed fleet. At the same time, detailed paper and picture information about the two exercises were also transported to Baghdad that night by a fast warship. At the speed of the fast warship, it could be transported to Paris in about one day. This matter requires the German Admiralty and even the German Emperor to handle it personally. (To be continued.)
