Rise of Australia

Chapter 138 German System and Imperial System

Seeing that the production line for buying weapons could not be realized for the time being, Koichiro Yuzawa put his goal back on the weapons themselves, and said with a little compliment: "Your Excellency, what are the prices of these weapons? We hope to buy a large number of British weapons. to meet the needs of our expanding military."

Since the island nation started reform and restoration, it has always had a tradition of importing weapons and warships from Western countries.

Especially when the British Empire needed the island country as a hound to fight against the Tsarist Russian Empire, the island country was also very sensible and smart to take refuge in the British Empire.

At present, the equipment and warships used by the navy and army of the island country basically come from the British Empire, ranging from small rifles to large battleships, all of which are uniformly handcrafted by the United Kingdom.

Although such unified imperial equipment will lead to an increase in the funds required for procurement, it also reduces the burden on logistics.

If a country cannot achieve self-sufficiency in its weapons, then the best way is to uniformly purchase equipment from a country with powerful weapons, instead of making its own country's weapons made by all countries.

Although the equipment made by Wanguo is cheaper and has a wide variety, there is a lot of room for choice.

However, the use of weapons made by all countries also has a huge flaw, that is, when entering a period of extremely demanding logistical supplies and requirements like war, weapons made by all countries with a wide variety and very complicated logistical supplies will become a burden that can drag down the country's economy and logistical supplies. burden.

Just imagine, when the logistics supply from the rear finally arrived, the soldiers suddenly discovered that the weapons they were using could not use this kind of bullet, which would be a great blow to the morale of the soldiers.

This is also the reason why Australia's army equipment uniformly adopts its own production.It can not only avoid more complex weapon systems, but also reduce the pressure on the wartime logistics system.

When it comes to buying weapons, Australia's Deputy Foreign Minister is also excited, selling excitedly: "Mr. The British Empire and the German Empire. If your country wants to buy army weapons and equipment, I sincerely recommend the equipment of the German Empire to the two of you."

"Equipment of the German Army?" Yuzawa Koichiro and Heino Toshiyuki looked at each other, eyes full of curiosity and expectation.

Although it was the British Empire that they turned to and fawned upon, all islanders have naturally heard of the reputation of the German Empire, which is currently the world's largest army.

If the British Empire is the well-deserved overlord of the sea, then the army of the German Empire is the iron-blooded army that any country covets.

Of course, under the slightly crazy militarism education of the islanders, the ideological education of the island army is very successful, and it is no worse than the German army in terms of fearlessness.

But in terms of logistical supplies and weapons and equipment, the army of the German Empire is more than a star and a half ahead of the army of the island nation.

"Dear Foreign Minister, can your country really sell us German-made army weapons and equipment?" Yuzawa Koichiro said with some expectation.

"Of course. With the good relationship between Australia and the German Empire, we have the production technology of German-made rifles, machine guns, artillery and even various warships. After the approval of His Royal Highness, these weapons are all weapons that Australia can sell to the outside world. ’” said the Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs with a smile on his face.

Yuzawa Koichiro and Heino Toshiyuki looked at each other, and they both saw the excitement and worry in each other's eyes.

German-made weapons and equipment are indeed very attractive, especially German-made army equipment, and even many of them are ahead of British weapons and equipment.

However, the island country has already concluded an alliance with the British Empire. If the island country equips a large number of German-made weapons and equipment, will it affect the alliance between the island country and the British Empire, or even affect the cooperative relationship between the island country and the British Empire?
The butler Hunter, who had already understood the concerns of the two envoys of the island country, said with a smile, "Are you worried that the purchase of German-made equipment will affect the relationship with the British Empire? You can rest assured, your China is only cooperating with us, not with Germany. All the weapons and equipment purchased by your country are independently manufactured by Australia, and they are weapons with independent production technology in Australia. Although these weapons and equipment are from German technology, they are It's also Australian now, isn't it?"

Butler Hunter's words hit the nail on the head, making the two hesitant Japanese envoys brighten up instantly.

Although it is German-made weapons and equipment, the country of production is Australia, and the country of cooperation is also Australia.

With the good relationship between Australia and the British Empire, the British Empire should not be angry, right?

Now the two envoys of the island country are like two humble licking dogs, and the attitude of the British Empire must be carefully considered in everything.

"Sogas! Can we see the power of weapons and equipment? Please rest assured that we are definitely not doubting the quality of weapons produced in your country. We just want to see the power of German-made weapons and equipment and the power of British-made weapons. It's different, after watching the power of German-made weapons, we can sign a weapon import treaty at any time." After thoroughly thinking about it, Yuzawa Koichiro said impatiently.

According to the strategic plans of the island countries, there is a huge conflict between the strategies of the island countries in East Asia and the Far East and the Far East strategy of the Tsarist Russian Empire. This also means that the two countries either choose to retreat, or they can only let the war decide which country give up.

But you must know that, unlike the core area of ​​the Tsarist Russian Empire in Europe, the entire island country is located in East Asia. If you give up its strategic position in East Asia, it is actually equivalent to giving up the opportunity to rise.

Even if the enemy is an old power, the Tsarist Russian Empire with the title of European bulldozer, these islanders with a distorted mentality will never give up, and have even begun to formulate plans to frantically please the British Empire and the United States in exchange for the support of these two countries. Prepare for war with the Russian Empire.

Everyone, including the emperor, tightened their belts and saved money to develop the army and navy, in order to realize the dreams of all the islanders.

It's not that the islanders didn't want to have a good relationship with the German Empire, but the German Empire is currently paying more attention to winning over the Tsarist Russian Empire, so naturally they don't have a good impression of the potential enemy of the Tsarist Russian Empire, the island country.

Yuzawa Koichiro and Heino Toshiyuki are still very excited to have the opportunity to obtain a large amount of German-made weapons and equipment.
