The situation across Europe is becoming increasingly tense, and both the members of the Entente and the Allies are trying their best to speed up their preparations for war.
The armies and navies of each country are doing their best to become stronger so that they can win the following wars.
No one wants to be a loser.
Similarly, the Russian Empire was the same.
The Russian Empire has been preparing for war all these years. The mobilization system of the army has been perfected. Once war broke out, within three months, the total strength of the Tsarist Imperial Army could be expanded from 7 armies to 14 armies. Within half a year, it was expanded from the 14th Army to 28 group armies. In Mikhail’s plan, 28 army groups were fully sufficient.
Of course, in order to keep the sun from setting and the Gauls fight with the Germans. Therefore, the mobilization efficiency of the 31 countries of the Tsarist Russian Empire should be considered by the outside world to be still very low. In this way, the Russian Empire can obtain the greatest benefits in the following wars.
However, the enemy that the Russian Empire faced this time was also very strong. So, the Russian Empire was ready. If 28 army groups are not enough, then there is no problem at all in forming another 14 army groups, or even another 28 army groups.
War materiel, especially weapons and ammunition. Over the years, the Russian Empire also continued to prepare. It was ensured that after the outbreak of war, there would be no shortage of weapons, equipment and ammunition in the Russian Empire. In this way, the strong combat effectiveness of the army of the Russian Empire will be guaranteed.
“Your Majesty, the naval arms race between the Germans and the Sunset has become more and more intense. The whole of Europe and the whole world, except for them, is still frantically building warships. Other countries have slowed down because they can’t keep up with their financial resources or for other reasons. “Admiral Alexander had a look of envy on his face.
The current Imperial Russian Navy still has only six Mikhail I-class battleships and six Izmail-class battlecruisers. Although captured many former dreadnoughts in the Kingdom of Caesar and the Empire of the Sun Never Sets. However, the combat effectiveness of those former dreadnoughts was very limited. In the major naval battles of this era, it is no longer useful at all.
This makes the strength of the current Tsarist Imperial Navy actually lag behind that of the Royal Navy and the Germanic Imperial Navy. Moreover, the gap is increasing.
“The sun never sets people want to maintain their maritime superiority and ensure their maritime supremacy. The Germans, on the other hand, wanted to challenge the supremacy of the seas that never set at sea. This makes both of them have to go crazy to build more warships. A large amount of national strength has been consumed on such battleships. Mikhail shook his head repeatedly.
Although, Mikhail also hoped that the Russian Empire would have a powerful navy. But he knew very well that the current Tsarist Empire was not strong enough. It is only possible to choose one direction of emphasis in the army and navy. Only after the Russian Empire became strong would it be able to fight both land and sea.
“However, from the current point of view, the sun does not set people still have a great advantage. The Germanic people want to challenge the sun without setting, it is very difficult! Mikhail said.
“Yes, Your Majesty. Now the Germans have already commissioned four Nassau-class battleships, four Helgoran-class battleships, five Caesar-class battleships, and four King-class battleships have also been launched one after another, and they will soon be able to serve. In addition, in terms of battle cruisers, the Germans have already commissioned the battlecruiser Vonder Tann, two Moltke-class battlecruisers and the battlecruisers Seydelitz, as well as the lead ship of three Derflinger-class battlecruisers, the battlecruiser Deflingel, and two others are still under construction.
Inside the Germanic shipyards, four more Bavarian-class battleships have already started. We even found out about the Germans’ plans for the next class of battle cruisers. (Read violent novels, go on Feilu Fiction Network!) ）
Admiral Alexander continued.
Mikhail nodded repeatedly, he was very clear about the Germanic shipbuilding plan.
However, because of the blockade by the sun after the start of the war, and the land battlefield did not achieve the fastest victory as expected. This made the supply of resources for the Germanic people more and more tight.
This also caused the progress of the construction of the Germanic warships, which was greatly affected.
Of the four Bavarian class battleships, only the lead battleship Bavaria and the second battleship Baden were completed, and neither the third nor the fourth ship was completed.
And of the five Mackensen-class battle cruisers, only the lead and second ships were started, and the remaining three were canceled. Or rather, improvements were made, the main gun was raised from 350 mm to 380 mm, becoming a new class of York-class battle cruisers.
Unfortunately, however, it is still due to a lack of resources. After the York-class battlecruisers began construction, they were still not completed, and work was soon stopped. 083 In Mikhail’s plan, these unfinished Bavarian-class battleships, Mackensen-class battlecruisers and York-class battlecruisers could become targets for the Russian Empire, which would carry out subsequent construction and join the Russian Navy after completion.
Even those battleships and battle cruisers already in service with the High Seas Fleet of the Germanic Empire could become trophies of the Russian Empire. Instead of letting these warships, which cost a lot of money to build, sink themselves in Scapa Gulf, it is better to join the Imperial Russian Navy, which is also considered waste. At the same time, it was also able to rapidly increase the strength of the Imperial Russian Navy.
“The disadvantages of the Germans are too great, and their heritage is completely incomparable to the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Sets. Plus the gap in terms of resources, and in terms of the speed of building ships. They want to challenge the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Set Empire in terms of navy, and the difficulty is not ordinary. Even if they are more practical than the Royal Navy of the Empire in terms of warship design concepts. However, the gap in strength is too great. Even if their single-ship performance is stronger than the battleships of the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Sets. But unfortunately, they still can’t help them defeat the Royal Navy of the Empire. Mikhail said rather regretfully.
