"Comrade Joseph, you also asked the Germans to help us build a group of powerful battleships. Do you think it is necessary for us to build a powerful navy?" Ulyanov asked.

"Yes, Your Excellency. I think it is very necessary for us to build a strong navy. Although, our strength is still very weak and far from being comparable to that of Germany. However, we want to see that other powerful countries are all We have a powerful navy. Once we become strong, we want to liberate all mankind. Without a strong navy, how can we do it?" Joseph said.

On this issue, Joseph intends to fight for it with all his strength. If he wants to get involved in the army and deepen his influence in the army, he must find a way to expand the navy, and it is best to let him serve as a naval commissioner. Therefore, he had to get Ulyanov to agree with his plan. Otherwise, everything will be empty talk.

Ulyanov nodded, liberating all mankind, this is the ultimate goal of the Bubu Party. However, the most important thing before them is to make Buo stronger. And in future wars, it is necessary to resist the enemy's attack. If it fails in future wars, then Soviet Russia will cease to exist. Not to mention these goals.

"Comrade Joseph, I am worried that with our current strength, there is no way to build a strong navy!" Ulyanov was a little worried. After all, Bu Russia's national strength is not yet strong, and the navy is extremely expensive. At least much more expensive than the army needs.

"Comrade Chairman, I have already negotiated with the Germans. The cost of building battleships can also be paid for by agricultural products and mineral resources. In this case, there is not much pressure on us." Joseph said.

Ulyanov's brows were still tightly frowned. Although the German side agreed to pay with agricultural products and mineral resources. However, the reconstruction of the industrial system, as well as the construction of transportation, and now the construction of naval battleships, will cost a lot of money! Relying on agricultural products and mineral resources, they don't know how long it will take to pay off these debts.

Ulyanov knew very well that in order to gather more agricultural products to trade with the Germans, many Russian farmers could not even have enough to eat. If the oppression continues, I really don't know what big trouble will happen.

Joseph knew that it would be difficult to convince Ulyanov on this issue. However, this involves a struggle for military power, and he cannot back down.

"Comrade Ulyanov, I have other considerations in advocating the establishment of a strong navy," Joseph said.

"What consideration?" Ulyanov asked.

"The Germans distribute most of their shipyards along the Baltic Sea. In other words, almost all of the German shipbuilding industry is concentrated in the Baltic Sea. If we can have a strong fleet in the Baltic Sea, once we and If Germany turns against each other, or even breaks out of war, we can use the fleet to directly attack the German shipbuilding industry. In this way, it can greatly relieve our pressure." Joseph said.

Ulyanov nodded: "This is indeed a solution. However, the German navy is very powerful. Even if we have a few powerful battleships, I am afraid that we are not the opponent of the German navy?"

"Comrade Chairman, the German Navy is indeed very powerful. But at the same time, Germany's enemies are equally powerful! Their enemies are not only us. In addition, the Germans also have the most extensive overseas colonies in the world. Therefore, the German Navy They are scattered all over the world to deploy. The Baltic Sea is just insignificant to the German Navy. They should not deploy too strong a force in the Baltic Sea. I think that by then, with the strength of our navy, we will defeat the Germans , There is no problem at all," Joseph said.

Ulyanov agrees with Joseph's point of view. In his opinion, Bue was too weak compared with the German Empire. Even if it is another ten or eight years, I am afraid that it will not have the strength to fight against the German Empire. Under such circumstances, they can only try to find a way to resist the attack of the German army in the war.

"Okay, Comrade Joseph. This issue can be submitted to the Politburo meeting for discussion." Ulyanov said.

"Comrade Chairman, I sincerely hope that our country can have a strong army. Only in this way can we resist the Germans' attacks and even defeat them in future wars!" Joseph said sincerely . He is doing the last fight.

Ulyanov nodded, he understood what Joseph meant.

Ulyanov also knew about the competition between Joseph and Trotsky. However, in his opinion, both Joseph and Trotsky were equally good. But in terms of closeness, it is obvious that Joseph, who has been following him, is getting closer. Trotsky was different. He had great strength during the revolution. Even after the success of the revolution, he was able to confront Ulyanov. When the "Brest Treaty" was signed, Ulyanov's claim was even blocked for a time.

It can be said that Trotsky is definitely second only to Ulyanov in the current Budapest Party and Bu Russia. He is not only a member of the Politburo, but also the chairman of the Revolutionary Military Committee and a member of the Army and Navy of the People's Committee.

Originally, Trotsky served concurrently as the Foreign Affairs Commissioner. But Joseph showed great diplomatic ability in his contacts with Germany. That's why Ulyanov asked Joseph to serve as a foreign affairs commissioner. The reason for doing this is that it did not strengthen Joseph's strength and contain Trotsky's intentions.

Joseph worked so hard to strengthen the navy, and Ulyanov also knew his intentions. However, in Ulyanov's view, if Joseph can strengthen his strength in the navy. In this case, it may be possible to further contain Trotsky. It also kept Joseph from always being at a disadvantage in the competition with Trotsky.

"Comrade Joseph, are you willing to step down as a foreign commissioner?" Ulyanov asked.

Joseph was taken aback for a moment, but he immediately stated: "Comrade Chairman, I will follow your arrangement!"

Although, losing his position as a foreign affairs commissioner will damage his strength. But Joseph still didn't dare to go against Ulyanov's wishes.

Ulyanov nodded: "Then at tomorrow's Politburo meeting, you can resign as a member of the foreign affairs committee! However, you can't be idle. You can also serve as a naval committee member!"
