"I just said to keep it confidential, be cautious, and be careful about the peeping of shameless countries! And what are you doing now? The most powerful battleship information of the Empire was obtained by the other party! Look at the security measures of the Germanic shipyard and then look at the security measures of the Brom-Foss shipyard! Did you hire a group of hooligans to take care of this warship?" Navy Secretary Tirpitz roared loudly at his subordinates!

He now understands the hostility of His Highness to the capitalists! These guys are really a group of masters who care nothing but money. The Navy arranged security personnel for the construction of warships. But at the same time, it also requires the cooperation of relevant manufacturers. It is inevitable to be peeped at this time, but it is different to find that the insiders of the shipyard are colluding with British spies! During this period, he has been busy dealing with this matter. He was just beaten by the German Emperor yesterday and was summoned again today. Maybe he would be scolded again!

Tirpitz could clearly feel the dissatisfaction of the German Emperor with him. Since the last battleship bid ended, the German Emperor's attitude towards him gradually became cold. This had nothing to do with Prince Ruprecht, who would not say bad things to him in front of the German Emperor. The fundamental reason was that the German Emperor felt that he was not capable enough! Obviously, Prince Ruprecht did better than himself. Although he was not a professional in naval, he was a few streets away from his professional in both shipbuilding and strategic planning.

As a professional manager rather than a shareholder, if the directors of the shareholders' meeting find that they are average in their abilities and others can do better, the position of the professional manager, Tirpitz, is worrying. Now, just as Tirpitz is about to regain his strength and perform again, this is the case... When Tirpitz saw the German Emperor's cold eyes last time, he could clearly feel the cold sweat falling down!

Just after scolding himself yesterday, Tirpitz was about to calm down at the German Emperor for a few days. After a while, Moltke will be back. The German Emperor should prepare to turn his energy to the army. How could he still keep an eye on this matter? Tirpitz was very depressed, but he had to face it.

"The matter has been made, and holding responsibility is one aspect. But what should we do next?" To Tirpitz's surprise, the German Emperor summoned himself this time and did not continue to ask about the spy, but asked about the aftermath of the matter.

"The British are also doing the same thing as us. The Imperial Navy has no technical advantage as a whole, but the emergence of Nassau-class battleships has also devalued the former dreadnought fleet of the British, which is good news for the Empire. If we want the British to listen to our voices, then our fleet must at least be at a level that is sufficiently deterrent to the British." Tirpitz suddenly felt spirited when he heard this. According to the German Emperor, this is a big construction! Tirpitz has been looking for opportunities for the expansion of the navy. This time, it seems that the German Emperor brought the opportunity to his door?

"Dajian? I think too, but Dajian requires money! In a letter a few days ago, Xiao Moltke said that he wanted to establish an armored force like Bavaria, and he also asked me for money! You still ask me for money at this time? Don't you know that I was worried when I saw Mark recently?!" The German Emperor looked at Tirpitz even more unkind! After all, Germany was still a land-powered country. Even if the German Emperor liked the navy and admired Tirpitz, the status of the navy was still not as good as the army, and the weight of Tirpitz's speech was not as good as that of Xiao Moltke!

"I will talk about the issue of shipbuilding later. What I am now considering is how to deal with this matter. If the British know that we are building brand new warships, then people from other countries may also be able to start new warships, and not only the old British warships, but also the imperial fleets depreciate. Prince Heinrich suggested that I deal with it in a low-key manner. I want to hear your opinions now." The German Emperor thought for a while and said.

"As for the expansion of the fleet, you'd better negotiate with the future Ruprecht before making plans. It's too early to say this now." The German Emperor continued to ponder for a moment, and this sentence also made Tirpitz feel cold in his heart... Because the meaning of this sentence is very clear, although the German Emperor still let him stay in the position of the Minister of State of the Navy, his authority has been weakened. He was not the only one who made the submission of the future Navy plan! You know, it was originally possible that Ruprecht could only involve building ships, but he couldn't control this matter, but now it's different!

But now he is not worried about the work he will be increasingly difficult to do in the future. Now the German Emperor asks him to come up with a solution, how should he deal with this matter?

"In fact, this is not a bad thing. Britain is not in a good relationship with most major powers. Although it has been very close to the French recently, the two sides still have a lot of disputes in Africa. Not to mention the Russians, they are preparing to fight with British agents in the Far East. The maritime power is exclusive. If the navies of other countries are strong, the pressure on the British will also be greater. I think some news can be disclosed in time." Tirpitz thought for a while and said.

Tirpitz inferred this matter entirely according to his theory. He believed that the sea power could not be shared, and the emperor holding the sea power trident was an enemy between all other competitors. But in fact, this was not the case. When the situation changed, when the British could not suppress other navies around the world, they would choose to compromise. They could sign a sincere agreement with the French to form an alliance, or they could use the pound to buy the Russians, and even had equal sea power with the United States after the war. Therefore, Tirpitz meant to spread the news and let everyone create fearlessness together. Anyway, once the dreadnought comes out, it would not be impossible to hide it earlier.

Hesitated, the German Emperor was very hesitant because the two had very different opinions. What Tirpitz and Prince Heinrich said was very reasonable. Tirpitz was based on his theory that seemed to be reasonable, and Prince Heinrich was worried about the pressure on Germany by the expansion of the French defensive fleet. After all, unlike the Russians, the French's economic situation was very good. Moreover, since they were beaten up by Germany in Africa last time, France has begun to have the urge to expand its army! One Britain and the other France have made the German Emperor feel very stressed!

"Forget it, let's talk to old friends." Ask your buddy if you encounter something, this has been a habit that the German Emperor has developed over the past ten years...
