Redell's words seemed to make some sense!

In Hessman's memory, the German Navy's warships fought ugly in a battle, perhaps because they were too small or because they had no aircraft carrier protection. If Bismarck was a "Sedlitz"-class aircraft carrier and 36 aircraft of zero-war protection, it would be hard to say whether the British could catch it.

"It's better to hold a wargame performance!" Marshal Schletcher, who presided over the meeting, made the decision. "If two double-ship formations can force the main force of the British local fleet to escort, it's worth building." Speaking of this, he looked at the fat man Gore again, "Mr. Gorene, the 12 P-class armored ship projects will not put too much pressure on industrial production, right?"

"No problem," Goering promised, slapped his chest, "we have enough strength to build ships!"

He said in a proud tone: "After the National Socialist Workers' Party came to power, our industrial strength has made great progress. Now we can produce 26 million tons of steel every year, the most in Europe. And in the two four-year plans, we have also invested 565 million marks to enhance the capabilities of the eight major shipyards (Blom Foss Shipyard in Hamburg, Shuofei Shipyard, Deutsche Shipyard in Wilhelmshaven National Naval Shipyard, Kill's Hovaz Shipyard, Volcano Shipyard in Stettin, Deschmag Shipyard in Bremen, and Caesar's Great Shipyard in Riga). In addition, we have built 17 new hulls and shipyards that can be built.

Now, except for the Caesar Shipyard in Riga, the other seven shipyards have at least one ship platform that can build H-class battleships, including the Desimag factory in Bremen and the Brom. Fox Factory in Hamburg and the National Naval Shipyard in Wilhelmshaven. There are two large ship platforms that can build H-class battleships. The seven shipyards have a total of 9 large ship platforms with a total of more than 60,000 tons."

The no-load displacement of the H-class battleship is 55,553 tons. It takes 60,000 tons to build its platform to ships. This level of ships was very rare in the 1930s.

However, it is not necessary to build the H-class. Now there is one 9 60,000-ton ships in Taichung to build the Bismarck class No. 2 ship, two for building the "Bamarck" class (33,000-ton fleet aircraft carrier), two for building the H-class battleship, two for building the 35,000-ton O-class battleship, and two for building the "Bamarck" class, and two for building the "Bamarck class" (33,000-ton fleet aircraft carrier). Two for building the H-class battleship, two for building the 35,000-ton O-class battleship, and two for building the "Bamarck" class and yet to be put into use.

As for P-class armored ships, with an empty-load displacement of less than 20,000 tons, there are many shipyards in Germany that can build them.

"There are still some other 20,000 to 30,000 tons," said Goering. "The military ships currently placed on those platoons are a 'Sedritz' class and an 'Admiral Hippel' class. There is no problem in starting four P-class armored ships at the same time."

Both ships were projects in the first phase of the "Z" plan formulated in 1933, including two "Scharnhorst"-class battleships, two "Bismar"-class battleships, two "Sedritz"-class aircraft carriers, four "Admiral Hippel"-class cruisers, three "Germany"-class armored ships, five "Leipzig"-class light cruisers, four "Types"-class destroyers, four "Types"-class destroyers, six "Types"-class destroyers, 12 "Raptor"-class and "Beast"-class boats (not speedboats) and about 300 submarines of various models. In addition, the German Navy also owns three "Konisberg"-class light cruisers, which were built in the 1920s.

"Where is steel?" Schletcher asked, "can it be? The plan for shipbuilding is very large now, and tanks and cannons also need to take up steel."

"Steel is not a problem," said Goering. "According to the plan, one-third of the total output will be allocated to the General Administration of Arms this year, and one-third of the 26 million tons is 8.67 million tons. 12% of it is for the Navy, with a total of 1.0404 million tons. By 1939, the steel allocated to the Navy will exceed 2 million tons." The fat man looked at Hessman gratefully, "In fact, steel is not a problem. What we really lack in Germany is non-ferrous metals. Fortunately, the General's vision was far-sighted and began to reserve as early as the 1920s, otherwise the raw materials of the Z plan would be really a problem."

"Okay, since raw materials are not a problem," Marshal Schletcher nodded, "Then arrange a wargame deduction. If the deduction proves the navy's point of view, then set the four P-classes as priority and start construction as soon as possible."

Hessmann was not very satisfied with this treatment method. In his opinion, the P-class was useless. It would be great to replace the 20,000-ton hull with an aircraft carrier. If you design it carefully, you can even get 60 ship-based aircraft...

However, after being a "political general" for more than ten years, he also knew that preparing for war also requires politics. As a general of the army, he should not interfere too much in the navy.

"Well," said Hessman, "Then the priority in the 'z' plan will be added to 4 p-classes at most. The general class project is 2 H-class battleships, 2 B-class aircraft carriers, 2 O-class battleships, 12 M-class light cruisers, 24 1936-class destroyers and 20 minesweepers, 20 submarine hunters, 50 speedboats, and 100 submarines. In addition, a 12,000-ton class escort aircraft carrier 4,000-ton tank landing ship, new air defense cruisers, new carrier-based radars, new aviation, 500-kg and 1,000-kg armor-piercing."

"Yes." Redel did not raise any objections this time. Although the number of H-class battleships and O-class battleships that started construction was a little small, plus the Bismarck and Schánhorst, the German Navy could have 8 battleships by 1942. In addition, it could have 3 'Germany' class, 4 'Admiral Hippel' class, 4 'P' class, 2 'Sedritz' class, 2 'Bail ships' class, and a main battleship, which is quite good.

"Then let's discuss the Army tank project next," Marshal Schletcher breathed a sigh of relief. The "Navy Z Plan Adjustment Case" that had been quarreling for many days finally came to an end. "Ludwig, do you suggest that Skoda's lt-38 tank be included in the priority and production catalog?"

The lt-38 is the famous 38t tank. It was developed by Skoda, a company of the Bohemia protector, on the basis of the lt-35 tank. After Bohemia became part of the German Empire, Hessman instructed Skoda to develop a 10-ton light tank.

In early 1938, Skoda Company only came up with a product, the lt-38. After testing by the Armored Forces General Office, it was believed that the performance of this tank was better than that of the German No. 2 tank and was an ideal light tank.

Hessman said, "Yes, the lt-38 is better than the 2nd. It is recommended that the factory currently producing the 2nd tank convert the production capacity of the 2nd tank 60 into the lt-38 in 1938, and increase the monthly output of the lt-38 series vehicles to more than 150 units by January next year."

"Mr. Goring." Marshal Schletcher asked.

"No problem," Gorein replied with his chest. "A command... In this way, the priority directory for tank production and production will include 38t tanks, No. 3 tanks, No. 4 tanks, and the priority directory will include vk3001 (30-ton Class No. 1) and vk4501 (45-ton Class No. 1)."

The vk3001 project and the vk4501 project were later famous Black Panther tanks and Tiger tanks. Both projects were established very early, one was established in 1938 and the other was established in 1937.

"The priority development catalog plus the second series of deformation vehicles, with the focus on 105mm self-propelled cannons, reconnaissance tanks, fire spitting tanks and tank repair vehicles."

Gorene immediately recorded Hessman's request in his notebook. His task was to complete the military's requirements within his ability. With the General Administration of Arms and the Arms Committee, Germany's arms production has gradually come on track. The military can only put forward the requirements that the General Administration of Arms can be able to complete, while the General Administration of Arms can use administrative orders to regulate the production of the entire German industry in order to maximize the capabilities of the German industry.

"The next step is the production and development of the aircraft," Schletcher opened another folder with the Air Force mark. "The Navy Air Force proposed to modify the He111 and Ju88, replace the high-power air-cooled engine, and add external auxiliary fuel tanks to increase the combat radius to more than 1,000 kilometers... and when He111 carries one aviation and Ju88 carries two 500 kilograms of armor-piercing."

It seems that the Navy Aviation people are still thinking about the "Sneak Attack of Thousand Aircraft"? Hessman nodded: "I think it can be done... Maybe I can really attack Spaca Bay when the war begins."

"It's so risky, that's the most powerful navy in the world!" Redel shook his head, "and we don't know the situation in Scapa Bay."

When Raidel said this, he certainly didn't know that the world's most powerful navy stayed in an anchorage without aircraft cover, without radar detection, and less than 1,000 kilometers away from Germany.

If Hitler in history really dared to play like Iroku Yamamoto, the main force of the British Navy might have to fall into slump in September 1939...
