"Alright, we won the bet." Li Zihao put down his cup. The occupation of Ruhr meant that Pronia had the capital to arm its army on a large scale.
In the morning, Dennis, who had just returned from Hamburger, wore a white general uniform and went to the head of state's residence to look for Li Zihao.
The uniform was nice, but her figure was too bad. Li Zihao found that Denise was a petite woman, but she looked more mature than Shadia.
Because of this, Li Zihao couldn't treat Dunnice as a peer.
Danielle gave her general coat to the maid beside her and sat opposite Li Zihao.
The Prussians 'military uniforms had all been updated. Compared to the military uniforms of the Second Reich, the military uniforms of the Third Reich were known as the most handsome military uniforms. Even in later generations, they were highly praised.
Needless to say, Dennis 'military uniform was made of high-end fabric.
"Speak." Li Zihao nodded. He was bored to death, so he was naturally willing to learn from the other party.
"Why do you think that aircraft carriers are more powerful than battleships? To be honest, the traditional level of our Prussian navy is not as good as that of Britain and France. The combined navies of these two countries have an overwhelming advantage over us.”
"I know. The warships that you have in service now are many old ships that are more than ten years old. The largest one is less than ten thousand tons, and the caliber cannot exceed eleven inches. A warship designed at this level is just a heavy cruiser.
But now it's different. I believe that Shadia no longer cares about the restrictions imposed on Prussians by the Versailles Contract. I know that you think battleships are the main warships of the navy, but your enemy has an overwhelming advantage. Do you think that the Prussians can defeat them with their current level of naval power?”
Dennis lowered her head. Indeed, she couldn't.
" Are you counting on submarines? Let me tell you, that's impossible. Submarines can only be used as auxiliary naval forces and cannot be used as the main fleet. If you want to defeat the enemy's navy, you still have to rely on large surface ships. Moreover, submarines have almost no ability to resist when facing the destroyer that is hunting them. They can only run for their lives.”
If they floated up, they would be riddled with holes by the enemy's cannons.
This kind of ship could be used to attack enemy merchant ships, but against armed ships, the role could be easily reversed.
A nuclear submarine equipped with a nuclear warhead could destroy a small country, but the current submarines definitely did not have that kind of standard. A submarine that could only fire torpedoes was just a salted fish. Other than concealment, it did not have much advantage.
"We've never built aircraft carriers before. Are they really that powerful?”Dennis still had doubts about whether the aircraft carrier could be used.
"Your current appearance can be described by an idiom in China.”
"What idiom?" Dennis looked up and asked.
"You're short-sighted."
Suddenly, footsteps could be heard in the hall. It was Shadia. She heard Li Zihao's words. As a genius, she naturally understood the meaning of this idiom.
Danielle immediately stood up and bowed to Shadia. As a soldier, she didn't like this bow, but her arms couldn't beat her thighs.
His slightly invasive gaze reminded Shadia of the first time they met. Li Zihao's hand pressed down on that place. Li Zihao even grabbed it. They probably still remembered that feeling.
"Humph." Shadia ignored Li Zihao and left.
Li Zihao turned his head to look at Dennis and said," How about continuing the previous topic? Do you think the aircraft carrier has no combat power?”
"Yes, even for the Fusang Empire, a few aircraft carriers are also used as auxiliary forces.”
"Hahaha, since aircraft carriers are useless, why are Britain, Japan, and Timiligan building aircraft carriers? Do you think the people of these countries are fools?”
It should be said that in the early stages, none of these countries dared to invest heavily in the development of aircraft carriers. It was only when aircraft carriers proved their value in actual combat that battleships withdrew from the history of the navy. In the early stages, battleships were still the dominant navy.
"This..."
After all, Prussians had no experience in building aircraft carriers. Even if they had the blueprints and technology, the navy was not very optimistic about the aircraft carrier. However, Shadia had already given the order, so they could only bite the bullet and proceed.
"Hehehe, I know what you're thinking. The Prussian navy can't afford to wait, and they can't afford to lose. But I can tell you with certainty that aircraft carriers are definitely the darling of future naval warfare. The era of giant ships and cannons is about to end.”
It could be said that in World War II, there were no large-scale naval battles between battleships. The vast majority of naval battles were completed by aircraft carriers.
"And I suggest that you start preparing to train pilots immediately. I can tell that woman, Gerlyn, is not easy to get along with.”Li Zihao knew that women like Gelin were a little selfish.
However, it was normal. She was also doing this for the development of the air force. She was afraid that the navy would snatch her resources. It was obvious that Hainan Airlines had higher requirements for pilots. She was afraid that Hainan Airlines would poach her elites.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you.”Denise stood up straight and saluted Li Zihao. No matter what, Li Zihao had solved her confusion.
"It's good that you understand. In this new era, technology is advancing very quickly. Could the humans of the past think that they could fly?”Li Zihao nodded. The appearance of airplanes changed the history of human warfare. This new product was not restricted by the terrain and could be used as a means of transportation or a weapon.
