Jagged Germany

  Little Moltke's confidant generals, as well as generals who have received benefits from Mauser and Rheinmetall, have stood up against the weapons and equipment developed by the German Arms Company. They hold on to those disadvantages and continue to exaggerate them, as if if the German Army were to switch to those weapons, not only would its combat effectiveness not be improved, but it would be further weakened.

  The faces of these guys made Qin Tian very disgusted, and at the same time, he became more determined in his heart that once he came to power in the future, these guys must be cleaned up. These guys have completely become moths in the German Army. Keeping them will only lead to the decline of the German Army. Qin Tian would absolutely not allow such a situation to happen. He also wants to lead the German Army, win one victory after another, and become the overlord of the planet.

  Gustav Krupp looked at Qin Tian anxiously. He never expected such a situation to happen.

  Even William II couldn't help but look sideways at it. Obviously, he did not expect so many people in the army to oppose the replacement of these advanced weapons.

   "Generals, don't you all turn a blind eye to the excellent performance of these weapons? I am very surprised, what are you thinking." Qin Tian said with a dark face.

  A group of generals suddenly became silent. They all saw Qin Tian's face and knew that Qin Tian was unhappy. Of course, they received a lot of benefits. But it doesn't mean they are willing to confront Qin Tian. Especially when Qin Tian's Crown Prince status became more and more stable, offending Qin Tian meant that once Qin Tian became the emperor of the German Empire, he might not have a good life without them. Therefore, many generals kept silent.

   "His Royal Highness, everyone is just discussing the facts. Your Highness doesn't need to oppress everyone with his status." Xiao Maoqi said with a sullen face.

   "Your Excellency, Chief of the General Staff, am I just talking about the facts? When did you use your status to suppress people?" Qin Tian replied **** for tat.

  Originally, the relationship between Qin Tian and Xiao Maoqi had eased somewhat. But obviously, it was all in vain now. The conflict between the two became acute again.

   "Okay, stop arguing, both of you. You are both important leaders of the German Empire, how can you quarrel over these trivial matters?" William II said with a dark face.

  Qin Tian and Xiao Maoqi couldn't help but shut their mouths. However, the eyes that looked at each other were obviously full of anger.

  Qin Tian has made up his mind that when he takes over, he will definitely replace Little Mao Qi. As for Xiao Maoqi, he was also determined to set up obstacles for Qin Tian. Of course, he has no way to pull Qin Tian from the position of crown prince. However, it shouldn't be a problem to stop Qin Tian step by step and limit Qin Tian's power.

   "General Waldsee, what do you think of the new weapons developed by the German Arms Company? Is it necessary for us to carry out a large-scale refit of the army?" Wilhelm II asked.

"Your Majesty, I have to admit that the weapons developed by the German Arms Company are very advanced. If all the army is replaced, our combat effectiveness will be greatly improved. But, this requires a lot of money. On the other hand, The logistical pressure on the troops will indeed be great. So, I would not recommend a full army refit," General Waldsee said.

   Qin Tian and Gustav Krupp's complexions were not so good. Qin Tian's plan was affected, while Gustav Krupp was worried that the German Arms Company would lose money. After all, he and Qin Tian invested huge sums of money in this arms company, and at the same time expended so much energy. If there is a loss, it would be somewhat unacceptable.

  King William II nodded, although he really wanted to help Qin Tian on this issue. However, the opinion of the Army cannot be ignored. After all, although the power of the emperor of the German Empire is not small, it can never be compared with the emperor of the Eastern Empire. Their power is still greatly restricted, and there are many things that need to be considered.

"Your Majesty, even if the current finances do not allow us to carry out large-scale refitting of the army's equipment, we can still do a batch refitting first. Replacing part of the equipment every year, in this case, will improve the combat effectiveness of the troops. It would also be of great help," suggested War Secretary von Falkenhain.

   "Well, this method is good, let's do it like this!" William II finally made a final decision.

  Although Xiao Moqi and others still want to continue to oppose. But William II had already made a decision, and they couldn't say anything more. If you continue to oppose it, it will undoubtedly offend William II. In the situation where the relationship with Qin Tian was already very stiff, if he offended William II again, the consequences would be very serious.

   Next, Wilhelm II left. He has given Qin Tian face by coming to this new weapon exhibition. He still has a lot of other affairs to deal with, so naturally it is impossible to stay here for too long.

   As for the amount of weapons and equipment the Army wants to purchase, Gustav Krupp went to discuss with General Waldsee. Under the condition that His Majesty the Emperor already had instructions, Gustav Krupp and General Waldsee did not take much time to reach an agreement.

"His Royal Highness, the army promised to purchase 2,000 MG09 general-purpose machine guns, 5,000 MG10 squad machine guns, 5,000 M2 sniper rifles and 20,000 M1 semi-automatic rifles, and 2,000 mortars of various types. I will purchase 3,000 pieces." After reaching an agreement with General Waldsee, Gustav Krupp said to Qin Tian.

  Qin Tian nodded: "Although this purchase volume is far from our expectation, it can at least guarantee the normal operation of the factory. Next, let's continue to think of a way!"

  Gustav Krupp nodded. Judging from the current situation, it seems that it is very difficult to make a lot of money on the project of the German Arms Company. But Gustav Krupp also knew that there was no way to do it. Who would have expected so many generals to oppose it? He didn't need to think about it and knew that it must be the crazy blockade launched by Mauser and Rheinmetall. This time, it is not bad to be able to get some orders. It's better than being completely rejected by the Army. What's more, Qin Tian is still the crown prince of the German Empire. As his power grows, he will definitely be able to further increase the army's orders in the future.
