Marshal Earl Tirpitz was very moved by Qin Tian's proposal to form a marine corps for the navy. If the navy can have a ground combat force, it will further enhance the strength of the navy. In many cases, there is no need to look at Lu Jun's face anymore.
There will be more or less conflicts between the army and navy of a country. It's just that the magnitude of the contradictions is different. Similar to Germany, the contradiction between the army and the navy is not too big, but it still exists. There are also countries where the conflict between the army and the navy is so great that it seems that they are mortal enemies, and they can put hatred before national interests, just like Japan*.
"His Royal Highness, I and the generals of the navy undoubtedly support the formation of the Marine Corps. However, it is not easy to really do it." Marshal Count Tirpitz said with a serious face.
All along, ground forces are under the control of the Army. If the navy wants to break this practice, one can imagine how big the army's reaction will be. Even, it will trigger a new round of conflicts between the navy and the army.
The navy has been building warships frantically during this period, which has tilted military expenditures to the navy, and the army is already very dissatisfied with this. If the navy tries to form its own ground forces, the contradictions will probably be even greater.
"Your Excellency Marshal, even if it is difficult, we still have to push forward. Once successful, this will be a huge success for the navy." Qin Tian said.
Marshal Earl Tirpitz nodded: "Well, let's go to the palace first and report to His Majesty. It would be great if we can get His Majesty's support. In that case, even if the army objects, we will be able to deal with it." .”
"Hmm!" Qin Tian didn't have any opinion on this.
Marshal Earl Tirpitz was already highly valued by William II, and with the opinion of his crown prince, the possibility of William II's opposition would not be too high.
It was nearly noon, and after a simple lunch, Marshal Earl Tirpitz and Qin Tian rushed to the palace to report to William II the idea of establishing the Marine Corps, hoping to win the support of William II.
At this time, William II was preparing for a lunch break, but Qin Tian and Marshal Earl Tirpitz came together, so he could only cancel this lunch break.
"Your Majesty, the Navy has a plan that I hope can be approved by Your Majesty." Marshal Earl Tirpitz said straight to the point.
"Huh? What plan?" William II asked. Now, the imperial navy is booming, seeing that it is not far from the British navy, which makes William II very happy. He often turns a blind eye to various plans of the navy, as long as they are not too far away. No trouble, they will be approved directly.
"Your Majesty, according to the current development speed of the navy, the possibility of us defeating the British in future wars is very high. Therefore, we need to prepare for this in advance. Once our navy defeats the British, if the British If we still refuse to surrender, but continue to be our enemy, we may have to consider landing in the British mainland to fight." Marshal Earl Tirpitz said.
Landing in the UK to fight? William II couldn't help but his eyes lit up. Landing in the UK is the dream of many European countries! However, even Napoleon the Great, who dominated Europe at the beginning, failed. If Germany can do it, isn't he more powerful than Napoleon the Great? William II was undoubtedly very interested in this.
"Is the navy really sure of defeating the Royal Navy?" William II asked. Although William II has always regarded this as a goal and knows that the navy is developing rapidly, he still has some doubts about it.
"Your Majesty, it is impossible to be completely sure. However, we are at least 60% sure that we can defeat the British!" Marshal Earl Tirpitz said.
"60% sure, that's not low." William II nodded, very satisfied with this.
"So, Your Majesty, we think that we must prepare for the future landing operations in the UK after defeating the British navy." Marshal Earl Tirpitz continued.
"What are you going to do?" William II asked. Even at this time, he has not guessed what the navy is going to do.
"We plan to establish a force specially tailored for landing operations, the Marine Corps. They will conduct special landing warfare training and be equipped with special landing warfare equipment. In this way, once an attack on the British mainland is required, , they will be able to seize the beachhead as the first wave of attacking troops." Marshal Count Tirpitz said.
"Marines?" William II frowned tightly. It was beyond his expectations that the Navy wanted to build such a force.
Of course, William II knew that this was very helpful for enhancing the strength of the navy. But in the same way, the Army will definitely not agree, or even strongly oppose it.
"Oscar, what do you think?" William II asked.
"Father, I think it is very necessary for the navy to establish a marine corps. Landing battles, especially when landing on the beach, often cause the greatest casualties. Once we defeat the Royal Navy, the British will definitely use it to defend their homeland. The local defense construction is like an iron barrel. At that time, if an inexperienced army is dispatched to launch a landing operation, the corpses of the soldiers will fill the entire beach, and the blood will stain the sea red. We must try our best Avoid such a situation as much as possible. The life of every German boy is precious and cannot be wasted like that." Qin Tian said.
King William II had to admit that what Qin Tian said made sense. He also doesn't want to see dead bodies strewn across the fields when the German army invades the British mainland in the future. It's just that it's really good to let the Navy break the convention and build a Marine Corps? William II was a little undecided.
Of course, Wilhelm II could see it. Marshal Earl Tirpitz proposed to establish the Marine Corps, which might be Qin Tian's idea. In the morning, Lu Jun refused to carry out a large-scale change of clothes, which angered Qin Tian. Now Qin Tian simply showed Lu Lu a little more power.
To be honest, William II was not too satisfied with the performance of Little Moltke and the army generals in the morning. It's just that Little Mao Qi is also the person he trusts the most, so he can't say much.
