Third Reich: I took over power

"Your Excellency, the Navy plans to form a Mediterranean Fleet based on the current Mediterranean Provisional Army. The current Mediterranean Provisional Army has two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers. Four Richelieu-class battleships that had just been commissioned were also included in the Mediterranean Fleet. In addition, the Mediterranean Provisional Fleet also has two M-class light cruisers and four X destroyers. In terms of small and medium-sized warships, the strength is still too weak."Marshal Redl said.

Hess nodded:"Transfer the two M-class light cruisers and four X destroyers back to the mainland. Among the heavy cruisers repaired by the Sun Never Sets Empire, two were transferred to the Mediterranean Fleet. In addition, among the light cruisers being built by the Imperial Navy, six Dido-class light cruisers were selected to join the Mediterranean Fleet. As for destroyers, let’s allocate 16 O-class destroyers to join the Mediterranean Fleet."

The Imperial Navy has achieved a great harvest this time in the Empire on which the sun never sets. Not only has it acquired a lot of battleships and aircraft carriers, but it has also acquired more than a hundred cruisers and destroyers. Although most of these cruisers and destroyers are still Under construction. However, some of them are already close to completion. Under the supervision and supervision of the Imperial Navy, some of them have been completed and can be put into service. Now, these warships are just in time to join the Mediterranean Fleet

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"Marshal Redl nodded.

In this case, the Mediterranean Fleet has four Richelieu-class battleships, two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers, two York-class heavy cruisers, six Dido-class light cruisers, and 16 O-class destroyer.

The strength of the Mediterranean Fleet is enough to dominate the Mediterranean. Among the countries surrounding the Mediterranean, no country can compete with the Mediterranean Fleet of the Third Reich Navy. Even those who aspire to become the overlord of the Mediterranean The navy of the Kingdom of Caesar is even worse.

"In addition to battleships, cruisers and destroyers. The Mediterranean Fleet also needs aircraft carriers and submarines. How many submarines does the Imperial Navy currently operate in the Mediterranean? asked Hess.

"Your Excellency, the Imperial Navy currently has a total of 2 submarines operating in the Mediterranean Sea, both of which are ocean-going submarines."Reported by Marshal Redl

"Allocate all these submarines to the Mediterranean Fleet." Hess said

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"Marshal Redl naturally has no objection to this.

"What about aircraft carriers? How many aircraft carriers can we dedicate to the Mediterranean? asked Hess.

"Your Excellency, the four Qi Bolin-class aircraft carriers of the Imperial Navy currently have missions. If we want to deploy aircraft carriers, we can only add the Unicorn aircraft carrier, which was just built by the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets, to the Mediterranean Fleet."Marshal Redl said.

Hess nodded:"Okay, let the Unicorn aircraft carrier be included in the Mediterranean Fleet. After other aircraft carriers are completed later, the number of aircraft carriers in the Mediterranean Fleet will be increased."

"Yes, Your Excellency."Marshal Redl.

In Marshal Redl's plan, it is enough to temporarily give the Unicorn aviation to the Mediterranean Fleet, which is much different. If we want to continue to increase the number of Mediterranean carriers, I am afraid we will have to wait for the subsequent Titan-class ships. After the aircraft carrier is completed.

The Giant-class aircraft carrier is a medium-altitude carrier, each capable of carrying 48 carrier-based aircraft, and a total of 10 ships were built. After completion, two ships can be allocated to the ground squadron. In that case, the aviation power of the Mediterranean Fleet is sufficient Dominate the entire Mediterranean

"Your Excellency, in addition to the fleet, the Mediterranean Fleet also needs a base. Currently, the Mediterranean Fleet is anchored in the port of Marseille in Vichy Gaul. However, once the Mediterranean Fleet is established, it is obvious that it cannot be parked there for a long time."Marshal Redl said.

Hess smiled:"It doesn't matter. There is a ready-made place that can be used as a base for the Mediterranean Fleet."

"Your Majesty, do you mean the Gibraltar Naval Base of the Royal Navy where the sun never sets?"

Hess nodded.

After the Sun Never Sets Empire took Gibraltar from the Kingdom of Franchi, it has been building a naval base there. After many years, a naval base like a fortress has been built. The

Third Reich The Mediterranean Fleet of the Navy can definitely enter it.

When the Royal Navy of the Empire of the Sun Never Sets has been completely defeated and even the mainland has fallen, it is naturally impossible to save the Fortress of Gibraltar. The

Kingdom of France is under the guise of an ally of the Empire. , and checked into the Gibraltar Naval Base in advance.

However, if the Third Reich proposed to lease the Gibraltar Naval Base, the Franchi Kingdom would not have the guts to refuse.

"I will ask the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to assist the Ministry of Navy in negotiating with the Kingdom of France. I believe that the Franji Kingdom will not reject the Empire!" Hess said

"Yes, Your Excellency. If the Franji Kingdom refuses to agree. Then the empire might have to doubt their sincerity. When they join the Empire, do they really want to become its allies?"Marshal Redl said.

Hess smiled and didn't say much.

When the Third Reich officially notified the Franchi Kingdom and proposed to lease the Gibraltar naval base, the Franchi Kingdom was reluctant, but they didn't want it at all. Dare to defy the requirements of the Third Reich and dare not go against the Third Reich.

Therefore, they can only accept the conditions of the Third Reich.

The Third Reich leased the Gibraltar naval base at a price of 20 million marks per year. Moreover, the lease period was long For ninety-nine years.

Subsequently, the Third Reich Navy officially established the Mediterranean Fleet, with Gibraltar Naval Base as its home port.

This news shocked the countries around the Mediterranean.

All countries are very clear that the Mediterranean now has a new The master of the Mediterranean.

If the Sun Never Sets Empire had become the master of the Mediterranean with its powerful navy. Then this time, the Third Reich has also done the same. The Third Reich’s Mediterranean Fleet has become the most powerful in the entire Mediterranean. Fleet. In a short time, the entire Mediterranean will fall under the control of the Third Reich.

And the countries around the Mediterranean can only survive on the breath of the Third Reich.

For some countries, this is nothing. Anyway They cannot become the masters of the Mediterranean. However, some other countries are very dissatisfied._To read the underlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
