Chapter 1077： Hindenburg entered service

On the whole, this trip to the Soviet Union went smoothly. The two countries signed a package of cooperation agreements. These agreements will soon appear throughout Europe and the entire world.

To play up the good relations between Germany and the Soviet Union. Although they are a bit dirty, Germany still hopes to maintain peace with the Soviet Union. In this way, Roosevelt on the other side of the ocean, after hearing such news, I don’t know how he would feel. !

Roosevelt must still be dreaming that he wanted to unite with the Soviet Union against Germany. It is a pity that the Soviet Union hoped that Germany would suffer both losses in the war with the United States, so that Germany could easily attack.

And now, Germany is indeed preparing for maritime hegemony.

On the second day Cyrenk returned to Germany, he came to the German Shipyard with great interest. This day was a special day for the German Navy!

After half a year of sea trials, the most advanced battleship of the German Navy, the Hindenburg class, will finally be put into active service and join the German Navy's Atlantic Fleet!

In history, the only completed construction in Germany was the Bismarck class. As a result, it was abolished by the British navy soon after going to sea. This made Hitler extremely disappointed with the surface forces and turned to support the submarine forces. The Hindenburg started construction in 39 years. Class, was also beaten into the cold palace. After the war with the Soviet Union, more of the battle for hegemony on land, Germany slowed down the pace of maritime equipment.

But now it's different.

Germany has already occupied the entire Western Europe. If Germany cannot obtain the dominance of the Atlantic Ocean, then Germany will never be able to truly win. If it wants to dominate the seas, relying on those submarines is not enough. It must have a main fleet!

Although Cyric knows that the future maritime supremacy belongs to the aircraft carrier, it is not possible now, because the Atlantic climatic conditions are harsh and the ocean weather is complicated, and there are often situations where carrier-based aircraft cannot take off. At this time, battleships are valuable at sea. of.

The Hindenburg class started under this idea. After several years of construction, the Hindenburg class will finally enter service.

This is a huge warship with a full load of 70,000 tons of displacement. Only by standing in front of it can you feel the power of this warship.

The length of this warship is close to three hundred meters, and its draught exceeds eleven meters. The tall bridge is like a building.

The most exciting thing is the strong naval gun.

460 mm, the largest caliber naval gun of this era! The maximum range is more than forty kilometers, and at 20 kilometers, any warship will be sunk with just one shot, and it will definitely fix its soul!

When Cyric's special car appeared on the dock, the whole scene was a sea of ​​jubilation.

People raised their right arms and shouted the slogan loudly. The 4D flag fluttered in the wind on the bridge of the Hindenburg-class battleship. Sailors in festive dresses circled the ships and stood neatly in line.

Navy Commander Raidel personally helped Cyric open the car door and watched Cyric walk down from above. When Cyric came out, he held Raidel's hand together.

Raidel and Cyric have known each other for ten years. In the past ten years, Raidel has seen the continuous growth of the German navy, from the initial inshore maritime patrol stipulated in the Versailles Treaty to the current oceanic navy. Don't open Cyric!

As for the Hindenburg class, Cyric made the final decision.

The resources needed to build a battleship are astronomical figures. For example, a naval gun on a battleship now weighs nearly three thousand tons, which is equivalent to a destroyer.

If you build a tank, you can build nearly a thousand! The navy is definitely the most money-burning unit, but Cyric decided without hesitation, with a displacement of 70,000 tons and a 460 mm naval gun!

The Navy’s Z plan is proceeding in an orderly manner. Six of this Hindenburg-class battleship will be built and become the absolute main force of the Atlantic Fleet!

What's more exciting is that this kind of warship only needs Germany to produce it. The pile of iron ore imported from the Soviet Union is enough to make two more battleships of the same model!

Cyric was dressed in uniform and looked extremely spirited. He stepped forward and stepped onto the battleship. On the front deck, under the naval gun, on the temporarily erected platform, Cyric began to speak.

"Today, we are very happy to see that our Hindenburg-class battleship has completed the sea trial and officially joined the sequence of our navy." Cyric said: "This is a great moment. Just twenty years ago, we Our navy is still trembling under the Treaty of Versailles. We have a country without defense, and now, we can proudly announce to the world that there is no power that can stop the expansion of the Third Reich!"

At this time, there is no need to twitch. Just a few days ago, Cyrek went to Moscow to see the military parade. Aren’t the Soviets just showing their mighty power?

In Cyric's eyes, it was just a jumping clown. The Soviets even needed Germany to build aircraft carriers. What else could they be complacent about?

"Our Third Reich wants to use our sword to obtain land for the third empire’s plows and daily bread for the people of the empire. Anyone who wants to be an enemy of the empire will inevitably be enslaved by the force of the empire, only to obey Empire, UU reading can survive!"

At this time, Cyric didn’t say who the opponent was. He was talking about the battleship’s enlistment. Of course it was a sea goal. As a result, after a few months, when the German operation Barbarossa started, Think of Soviet talents, what Cyric said to the Soviets.

Cyric's words pushed the surrounding emotions to a climax. The empire at this time is absolutely capable of dealing with any enemy! The strength of the empire is fiery in everyone's heart.

Now, on the other side of the ocean, you are aggressively trying to become an enemy of the empire. Come on, the empire will not be afraid of anyone!

"Now, I announce that the Hindenburg will officially join the Atlantic Fleet, with Plymouth as the port, and patrol the Atlantic at any time!" When Cyric finished his speech, Raidel simply said: "Long live the German Navy!"

Long live! The sounds from all around were neat and uniform, it was the shouts of the 2,400 officers and soldiers on the ship!

Amidst the shouts, Captain Luckins stood on the bridge and announced loudly: "Drop anchor, set sail!"

Lukins, the most outstanding captain in the German Navy, almost has several firsts, the first Captain of the German-class pocket battleship, the first Captain of the Bismarck, and now, he has been appointed again. A Hindenburg class captain.

His assistant Lindemann was promoted to become the new captain of the Bismarck.

Following Luckins’ orders, the 20 heavy oil boilers of the warship began to burn at full power, black smoke emerged from the chimney, and six high-pressure turbine steam engines produced powerful 280,000 horsepower. The propellers were at the tail. Rotating, the warship started a new round of voyage, went to its own station, and started patrolling in the Pacific Ocean! ()
