Jagged Germany

  The imperial navy was divided into five fleets at once, and the strength of each fleet was roughly the same. The eight capital ships planned by the local fleet are a little more powerful because the plan is to use a 410mm main gun. The Mediterranean Fleet and the Indian Ocean Fleet have one less capital ship and are slightly weaker. However, overall, the strength of each fleet is still very similar.

   How to allocate the aircraft carrier, Qin Tian has not yet figured it out. Because the German Navy now has only six aircraft carriers in total, if each fleet is allocated, then the strength will be dispersed and will not play a big role. The allocation will be made after the number of aircraft carriers owned by the German Navy has been further increased. In this case, it can undoubtedly ensure that the aircraft carrier has a strong combat effectiveness. After all, a single aircraft carrier has extremely limited combat effectiveness. If a dual aircraft carrier battle group can be formed, the combat effectiveness will increase exponentially. Therefore, it is necessary to wait until the German Navy has at least 12 aircraft carriers before it can be allocated.

   Fortunately, large-scale naval battles cannot be fought for a while. The German Navy had plenty of time to prepare. With Germany's industrial strength and economic foundation, when the war broke out, the German fleets were estimated to be very strong. This will make Germany fully capable of winning on various battlefields.

  For example, in the Atlantic Ocean, the Home Fleet and the Atlantic Fleet can join forces to deal with the Americans and the British. Even the Mediterranean Fleet can provide reinforcements for wars in the Atlantic Ocean. The Pacific Fleet and the Indian Ocean Fleet can join forces to deal with the island navies and the US Navy. The combined strength of the two fleets is already enough to occupy a great advantage in the confrontation with the navy of the island country.

   Regarding the candidates for the commanders and chiefs of staff of each fleet, Qin Tian did not make a decision immediately, but was temporarily vacant. After all, the division of the German Navy into five fleets was nothing more than a reform. The reform has not officially started, so naturally there is still a lot of time for revision and adjustment.

  The generals of the imperial navy undoubtedly support the reform of the navy. This can not only make the strength of the German navy stronger, but also allow more people to obtain a higher status.

   "The last is the Imperial Air Force! The Imperial Army Air Force will be transformed into the Imperial Air Force from now on. General Zeckert will be the commander of the Imperial Air Force!" Qin Tian said.

   "Yes, Your Majesty!" Lieutenant General Zeckert replied with excitement. He waited for this day, has waited for a long time. It is undoubtedly a great honor for him to be the commander of a new military branch.

  Of course, even though he hasn't been promoted yet, he believes that he will be promoted from lieutenant general to general soon. Even, it is not impossible to be promoted to Marshal in the future and become Minister of the Air Force! Thinking of this, Lieutenant General Zeckert felt hot in his heart.

"Although the Imperial Air Force has just begun. However, I have great expectations for the Air Force. Even, in future wars, the Air Force will become a decisive force. Whoever controls the air supremacy will be able to gain the initiative on the battlefield , and even won the war!" Qin Tian continued.

  Although, the Air Force still has a long way to go to realize what Qin Tian said. As far as the aircraft currently equipped by the air force are concerned, they will not be able to realize Qin Tian's expectations at all. However, as technology advances, more and more advanced aircraft will be invented. This will make the Air Force more powerful.

   "Yes, Your Majesty. I will definitely do my best!" Lieutenant General Zeckert said.

  Although, maybe even he himself doesn't quite believe that the air force that Qin Tian said will become the decisive force in future wars. However, Qin Tian's expectations of him are undoubtedly very high. This makes Lieutenant General Zeckert willing to do his best to achieve this goal.

"Now, the Imperial Air Force has a total of 12 aviation wings, six fighter wings and six bomber wings. It seems like a lot, but there is undoubtedly a big gap from the truly powerful Imperial Air Force. I hope In the next ten years, the Imperial Air Force will have 20 fighter wings and 12 bomber wings. Among them, there will be no less than 4 long-range heavy bomber wings!" Qin Tian said.

   "Long-range heavy bomber?" Lieutenant General Zeckert undoubtedly heard this word for the first time.

"Yes, long-range heavy bombers. The bombers equipped by the Imperial Air Force can only attack targets 300 kilometers away. The combat radius is really too small. And many enemies of the Empire have a very large land area. In other words , the empire needs to cross the vast ocean to be able to launch an attack on it. Therefore, heavy bombers with an ultra-long combat radius have become a must. Long-range heavy bombers must be able to attack at least a thousand kilometers or more In addition, the ammunition capacity must be greatly increased. In this case, if we can gather hundreds or even more long-range heavy bombers to attack the enemy's deep strategic locations, or attack the enemy's What kind of scene would it be if we bombed an important city and completely destroyed it?" Qin Tian said.

   Lieutenant General Zeckert's eyes could not help but shine. What Qin Tian said undoubtedly pointed out a new path for him. He never thought that the war could be carried out in such a way. He even couldn't wait to build the air force that Qin Tian wanted. The overwhelming long-range heavy bombers bombed the enemy's important cities, directly blowing them into ruins. Such a strike method can undoubtedly make the enemy pay an extremely heavy price in the war. Even destroy the enemy's war potential, so that one's own side can easily win the war.

"Your Majesty, from now on, the Imperial Air Force will increase investment in advanced aircraft. We will develop more advanced fighter jets and bombers as soon as possible. We will also equip long-range heavy bombers soon!" Zekert said the lieutenant general.

  Qin Tian nodded, he believed that Lieutenant General Zeckert would do all of this well.

  The generals of the imperial army and navy were also shocked by the scene Qin Tian described. Although, they used to regard the Air Force as a little brother who had just joined the army. But if the air force's strategic bombing can really have such a great power, then the role of the air force in the war is undoubtedly very large. Qin Tian's previous analogy was not an exaggeration at all.
