"Your Excellency, Marshal, are our submarine forces and battlecruisers ready?" Qin Tian asked.

   "Everything is ready. After the Austro-Hungarian Empire declared war on Serbia, pre-war preparations began!" said Marshal Count Tirpitz. As the head of the German navy, Marshal Earl Tirpitz also had a keen sense of politics. He also realized that the war was about to begin. Whether the German navy can defeat a powerful enemy depends on this time.

  Qin Tian nodded: "Tomorrow night, let our submarine and battlecruiser formation go to sea! The war is about to begin. The warships we spent huge sums of money must be put to use."

   "Your Highness, the British have not made a clear statement yet, will they declare war on us immediately?" Marshal Earl Tirpitz asked.

  Although, everyone knows that Britain and Germany will inevitably have a war. However, judging from the current situation, Britain is still debating whether to join the war. Therefore, it seems a bit premature to send the fleet to sea now.

  Qin Tian shook his head: "I can guarantee that within three days at most, the British will declare war on us!"

   Marshal Earl Tirpitz couldn't believe it, why is Qin Tian so sure?

"Don't forget, the most important part of the western front plan is to use Belgium to attack northern France. Will the Belgians agree to our request? It is almost impossible. Once our army enters Belgium, The British will certainly not sit idly by. The British have always implemented a continental balance of power strategy. They will not watch Belgium fall and France face a crisis. Therefore, it will be inevitable for the British to join the war soon!" Qin Tian analyzed.

"Well, from this point of view, we do have to make preparations in advance. Tomorrow night, the submarine force and the battlecruiser formation will go to sea. Once the British declare war on us, we will immediately launch an attack on their sea transportation lines , Completely strangle them!" said Marshal Earl Tirpitz.

  In order to strangle the British sea transportation line, the German Navy specially built hundreds of submarines. And, after the war broke out, an order was again placed to the shipyard to build 100 submarines. In terms of battlecruisers, although the 'Mackenson-class' battlecruisers have not yet entered service, the 'Blücher-class' battlecruisers, the 'Moltke-class' battlecruisers and the 'Derfflinger-class' battlecruisers Cruisers are more powerful than the first, and they have an overwhelming advantage against the battlecruisers of the British Navy.

  Qin Tian could predict that under the joint strangulation of the submarines and battlecruisers of the German Navy, the British sea transportation line would definitely suffer a devastating blow. At that time, the situation in the UK will be very bad. In order to protect its own sea transportation lines, the British Navy had to send more warships to escort. But whether it is a cruiser or a battlecruiser, it will not be an opponent of the battlecruiser of the German Navy, and it will only cause them to pay greater losses. Even, it will force the British Navy and the German Navy to engage in a decisive battle ahead of schedule.

   "How is the construction progress of our 'Bavaria-class' battleships and 'Mackenson-class' battlecruisers? Will they be able to enter service in the first half of next year?" Qin Tian asked.

   "Your Highness, the construction period has been accelerated now. There should be no problem in serving in the first half of next year." Marshal Earl Tirpitz nodded.

"In this case, the decisive battle between us and the British Navy will be in the first half of next year! I believe that the British who are driven to the point of going crazy will definitely not wait to have a decisive battle with us." Qin Tian smiled. Said.

   Marshal Earl Tirpitz also laughed.

  Once the British maritime transportation line is hit, it will undoubtedly be fatal to the British. As long as the British don't want to be hanged bit by bit by Germany, they can only put all their eggs in one basket. At that time, the number of capital ships of the German Navy may not take advantage of it. But in terms of quality, the German Navy can definitely take advantage. At that time, the possibility of the German Navy winning will be very high. Once the German navy wins, Britain is completely finished.

   Early the next morning, Qin Tian changed into a military uniform. Germany has declared war on Russia, so Qin Tian must rush to the front line as soon as possible. It is estimated that the Russian troops attacking East Prussia are already on their way.

  Although, Qin Tian has great confidence in the 8th Army. But this time, they have to face enemies that are twice or even three times their size. Therefore, Qin Tian still had to deal with it carefully. If the Eighth Army fails to withstand the Russian attack, it will be a fatal blow to Germany. At the same time, he might not have the face to continue to rely on the position of crown prince. Therefore, for the benefit of the empire, but also for his own benefit, Qin Tian must win in the next war.

  Qin Tian went to the office of Wilhelm II and bid farewell to Wilhelm II.

"Father, I'm going to the 8th Army soon. I assure you, the 8th Army will definitely hold off the Russian attack and fight for the Western Front for a month or even longer!" Qin Tian said with a look on his face. said firmly.

William II looked at his son in military uniform and nodded in satisfaction: "Oscar, you can go at ease. Don't worry about family matters. I know that you are worried about the war on the Western Front. But you have to believe that the empire The army is invincible. The French are our opponents, and this time, we can also defeat them!"

  William II seemed full of confidence, so Qin Tian naturally couldn't pour cold water on him anymore. The only thing he can do is to find a way to win for Germany when the situation on the Western Front cannot be opened.

   "Yes, father!" Qin Tian didn't say much.

   "Go, Oscar. I believe, you will win." William II said.

   "Germany will win!" After Qin Tian finished speaking, he turned and left.

  Qin Tian then returned home and bid farewell to his wife and children. Gundlinde's eyes were red, and his three-year-old son seemed to realize something, and began to scream.

   "Gundlinde, don't worry, I will return safely." Qin Tian said with a smile.

   "Well, Oscar, I'll wait for your return!" Gundlinde nodded, she is a very well-behaved wife, even if she was worried, she would not stop Qin Tian. Because she knows, she can't stop it.

  Qin Tian kissed Gundlinde and his son, and then, under the protection of the guards, went to the train station, took a special train, headed for Königsberg, and headed to the front line, ready to fight.
