The Third Reich: I Became Emperor

Chapter 43



More importantly, the huge shipbuilding factory in the British Isles. With the current production capacity of the Empire, it would be good if it could launch ten warships a year.

The German Navy has no combat power at all now, so August has set his sights on the military ports, shipbuilding technology, and aircraft carriers that are under construction in the British Isles. These are things that cannot be taken away.

Even if they are sunk, they can still be used after being salvaged and repaired.

Even if they are all blown up, it’s okay, because the workers can’t run away.

If that doesn’t work, he can collect money and buy a batch of warships. He is envious of American warships and aircraft carriers.

For this landing operation, August has prepared a lot of things.

In the City Palace, August began to summon all the officers of the Supreme Command. He wanted to formulate a landing operation.

According to the information collected, the main forces of the British defense are in White Road, Dover, Brighton and other places.

After all, attacking from these directions can greatly shorten the transportation distance of the German army, or they can blitz London after landing.

It is based on this idea that the British army deployed 80% of its main forces in these places. Therefore, if the German army wants to successfully land, it must destroy these main forces.

"Your Majesty, without the support of the navy, we cannot carry out landing operations at all."Marshal Keitel said with some embarrassment

"Your Majesty, the navy has suffered heavy losses. Currently, only the submarine force can be mobilized, but the submarine force alone cannot completely blockade the Royal Navy."Admiral Dönitz said with a stiff upper lip.

Due to the victories in the battles of Malta and Kharkov, August gained a certain reputation in the Wehrmacht. In addition to the title of the Frederick family, there were still many Wehrmacht generals who respected him.

Therefore, when August proposed to land on the British Isles, there were not many opponents, but there were not many who agreed either. Most of them were neutral, or wanted to see how he would deal with the Royal Navy.

Admiral Dönitz was also helpless. Although he held the rank of Admiral of the Navy, he was actually a submarine captain. Only the submarine force in the entire navy could command operations. The rest of the warships could only hide in the port and had no courage to fight.

After all, Bismarck's battleships were sunk, and the remaining warships did not dare to leave the port at all.

Fortunately, August did not expect the navy to do much, so he had never purchased arms for the navy.

Otherwise, he could have bought a few first-tier American battleships, but unfortunately he did not do so. Without landing on the British Isles and completely defeating the Royal Navy, the backbone of the German Navy would never recover.

"Don't worry, the secret manufacturing factory of the Empire is rushing to produce a batch of warships, and the Navy will be responsible for receiving them when the time comes."After thinking about it, August painted a big pie for the Navy. If there is enough money in the future, he will exchange it for a North Carolina-class battleship to give the Navy some training.

Hearing this, Marshal Dönitz said excitedly:"Really?"

"Of course, a new battleship with three triple-barreled 406mm main guns is definitely a world-class battleship."August said with a smile

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Great Emperor."Dönitz said loudly.

"The next step is the landing site. I decided to place the attack site in Dover City."August pointed to the map and said.

Hearing this, many people frowned. Dover City has nearly 100,000 troops. It would be difficult for them to land successfully.

"Your Majesty, there are 100,000 British troops in Dover. It will be difficult for us to land. Marshal Brauchitsch stood up and said

"I know, so I prepared a batch of new weapons, a new missile called Redstone missile, with a range of 200 kilometers, enough to hit Dover. It carries 500,000 tons of TNT. One missile is enough to flatten a 300-400-meter radius. Believe me, with 100 missiles, the entire Dover will become a ruin."

""Can't the army even take down a ruin?" August said coldly.

Hearing this, everyone present took a deep breath and said,"Is this true?"

"Of course, you will see it soon. As for the Royal Navy you are worried about, I will take care of it."August said lightly.

Because he remembered a torpedo anti-ship missile, the P-15 anti-ship missile, which was loaded on a torpedo ship. One missile could destroy a warship.

According to his estimate, at most fifty such torpedo ships would be enough to destroy most of the Royal Fleet. Fortunately, there is radar now, so there is no need to worry too much about accuracy.

PS There is more!
