Chapter 642: Is it appropriate for him, a soldier from the army, to evaluate our navy?
"How did the third brother fall into our hands?"
"They lack experience, so they were fooled into falling into our hands," Chaoxiang Xiuling said casually, then sighed. "You mean, because they have too little experience, they are not that loyal to them."
"Otherwise, a good agent can't be trained in a training institution for a few years. He has to go through repeated temptations and tests to become an excellent agent. Look at Shancheng, how many people can become excellent agents? Out of tens of thousands of people, you can probably only find more than a hundred. The rest are nothing."
"Alice's youth has resulted in a lack of experience. Furthermore, special agent training here takes several years. People like her usually leave before graduation. Academic performance is one factor, but family reasons are another. Few people truly want to enter this field, right? Think about Nanzō Yunko."
"I understand." Asaka Hiderei swung her feet again. "Today we've figured out that this border battle between Berlin and Northern Soviet Union is a conspiracy. So, will the Fog City increase its troops against the Far East?"
"This is inevitable. They didn't send more troops some time ago because they couldn't figure out what Berlin's real intentions were."
No matter how many more troops he adds, it will only count if he fights.
Now that the fighting has broken out here, France has a Machiavelli Line of Defense, and in the Far East, people like Takeshita Shun are causing trouble. It is impossible for us not to send more troops here.
As long as he increases his troops, Hase Kiyoshi will take action, and then the attack on Ying will be truly launched here.
This world-class war has begun.
As for what happens next, it doesn’t matter who wins or loses, as long as Shancheng gains benefits from this war, it’s all fine.
Guderian went to the navy that day. After the two of them discussed it, they went to the Foreign Minister and discussed it for nearly an entire night. Then the three of them went to the Führer to report the situation.
After listening to this, the Führer looked at Navy Minister Raeder and asked, "Compared with them, are we stronger in cruisers, or are they stronger?"
Raeder lowered his head and pondered for a moment. "Headmaster, they are stronger than us in terms of surface ships because they are an island nation. If they want to develop, they need the support of the navy."
"Contact them with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We can provide them with the navy's submarine manufacturing technology, but we need to replace their cruiser technology. In addition, transfer our cruiser technology to Shancheng."
"Führer, you..." Guderian didn't understand.
The leader glanced at him and said, "Good things should naturally be kept for ourselves. Why give them to others? If we do give them, it should be things we don't need. Also, you need to be prepared. If they send more troops over there, we must take action. After all, if we act too long, they will easily discover us."
"Yes, once they mobilize troops, I will go to the Western Front immediately." Guderian said from the side.
Hongkou, Shanghai.
The adjutant finished reading the message from headquarters, then stood up and approached Hase Kiyoshi, who was strolling in the courtyard. "General, there's a secret message from Berlin. They'll give us submarine technology, but they want our battlecruisers in exchange."
exchange?
Hase Kiyoshi stopped and finished reading the telegram. After a long moment, he looked towards a room not far away. There, a beautiful woman in a navy uniform stood in the corridor, staring into the distance in a daze.
That was Xiao Ya, and of course, Minamizō Akiko was there too. These two people had arrived here three days ago, and in their words, they had acted as liaison officers.
Discuss a series of issues, such as whether assistance from the mountain city is needed once the other party deploys troops.
But for Hase Kiyoshi, he didn't think so. Rather than coming here to make contact, it would be more accurate to say that he came here to eat and drink for free and get some benefits.
Now it seems that their mouths are open very wide.
"The one in your family is really good at doing all kinds of business." Chang Guqing walked to Xiao Ya and said with a smile.
Still looking at the bustling city in the distance, Xiao Ya glanced sideways at him, then her eyes fell on the telegram in his hand; "General, I don't understand what you are saying."
not understand.
Hase Kiyoshi laid the message on the ground. "They're willing to trade submarine technology with us, but they want our battlecruiser technology. I think it was someone in your family who suggested this exchange."
"No way, why do you think that this was proposed by my Awen? My Awen is very clear about what he wants and what he can't have."
He doesn't want anything, as long as it's useful to you. If he doesn't want anything, just tell him.
Radio technology, ships, heavy artillery technology, even tanks that would be of little use to Shancheng now, etc. He wanted everything.
"So you think your Awen is a good person." Hasegawa Qing pulled a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit them himself. Then he pulled another pack from another pocket and tossed it to Xiao Ya. "Tell me, what does he want? What does he plan to ask for when he comes back?"
Minamizō Akiko was awakened by the two men's voices. She put on her issued lieutenant uniform and the peaked cap and came out and said, "General, our boss won't ask for anything from you."
"Are you so sure that he doesn't want it?" Hase Qing heard again that Zhou Weiguo didn't want the empire's technology, which made him look at Minami Zao Mingzi with some disbelief.
Minamizō Akiko nodded. "Yes, I'm sure. My family member said that your ship technology is actually somewhat flawed compared to world-class countries. Because you advocate the theory of artillery rate of fire, but the war in this world has turned into a battle for air supremacy, which..."
"Wait." Hase Kiyoshi reached out to stop Minamizō Akiko. "You're talking about the army, right? Don't forget, we're the navy. The navy and the army are two different things, aren't they?"
Chang Guqing frowned. He finally understood what Zhou Weiguo meant by that, which was that the empire's combat technology had fallen behind.
He is from the army, and he comes here to say that the navy's combat technology is backward. Isn't this a bit of a misidentification?
"If I hadn't known he was an army officer, I would have almost believed he was an expert in naval warfare."
Hase Kiyoshi snorted in dissatisfaction.
Xiao Ya was not happy to hear this, especially the words that despised her own Awen.
She lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then tore open a cigarette and handed it to Minamizō Akiko, then took out one for herself. Minamizō Akiko took out her lighter, lit it for her elder sister first, and then stood beside Xiao Ya politely.
She knew that her elder sister would be enough to participate in the next discussion, and she could just listen quietly from the side.
