After hearing Qin Tian''s words, the Krupp couple couldn''t help thinking. There is no doubt that Qin Tian now requires them to develop the 380mm main gun, which has overwhelmed the R&D department of Krupp. Even, therge amount of money invested will make Krupp feel tremendous pressure.


    However, in the face of Qin Tian''s request and the needs of the Imperial Navy, it is difficult for them to say no, and there is no reason to refuse.


    After all, as Germany''srgest armspany, the fate of Krupp and the German Empire have long been tied together. Germany is prosperous and strong, and Krupp can also be stronger. Even, in order to obtain more profits, Krupp is eager for Germany tounch a war abroad. Only in this way, the requirements for arms will be greater.


    But if Germany loses in future wars, it will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to Krupp. Even Krupp may cease to exist. Therefore, Krupp must also try its best to help Germany win the war. This is also very, very important to them.


    "His Royal Highness, although your request is very difficult for us to fulfill. However, for the sake of the empire, we will try our best toplete it. I will immediately organize manpower and start the development of the 380mm main gun. However, this The sessful development of arge-caliber main gun will definitely not happen overnight, and the time required may be very long." Gustav Krupp said.


    They only need to hesitate for a moment before they know what to do. Faced with Qin Tian''s request, the needs of the German navy, and more importantly, the need to win future wars, they had no way to refuse, and there was no reason to refuse.


    Although, the development of the 380mm main gun now will make Krupp invest a lot of money and even affect their profits. But in order to be able to win the war, they also have no choice. What''s more, once the 380mm main gun is sessfully developed, the shipyard''s order will also allow them to make a lot of profits.


    "Mr. Krupp, it would be great if Krupp can do this. As for the research and development time, I know this very well. The war will not be fought for a while. So, I think we still have enough Time." Qin Tian said with a smile.


    In Qin Tian''s n, before the outbreak of future wars, as long as the German Navy can have battleships equipped with 380mm naval guns, that will be enough. In this case, the strength of the German navy can be further ahead of the British navy. With the cutting-edge battleships and battlecruisers of the German Navy, it is enough to make the Royal Navy of the British Empire suffer. If it isbined with submarines and aircraft carriers to attack the Royal Navy, there should be no problem at all. As long as the German navy can defeat the British navy, the rest of the war will undoubtedly be much easier.


    When the maind is threatened, it is conceivable how many expeditionary troops the British can send to France to fight. As for the Americans, will they still dare to join the war? Anyway, Qin Tian believed that with the American principle of doing everything for their own interests, they would never dare to confront the mighty Germany at that time. As for Russia, if there is a revolution in the country, they will be too busy to take care of themselves. Therefore, there is only one enemy that Germany will really face at that time, and that is the old enemy France.


    Without the support of other countries, can France still withstand the German attack? Anyway, Qin Tian didn''t think that France had such strength. In particr, the German Army will also receive Qin Tian''s support in the future, and will be equipped with arge number of advanced weapons. This will make the German Army more powerful. Beating France will be a piece of cake for them.


    "Mr. Krupp, there is onest thing. Deutsche Industries Group has established a German arms manufacturingpany, preparing to get involved in the manufacture of light weapons. I hope that I can get the support of Krupp." Qin Tian continued.


    "Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince going to enter the field of arms?" Gustav Krupp frowned tightly. Beta Krupp also had a bad face. After all, although the profits in the arms field are very high, the entire market is only so big. Once Qin Tian intervenes in this field, it will inevitably greatly reduce the profits of other armspanies.


    Especially in Qin Tian''s capacity, he will definitely win the favor of the military. This is really unfair to other armspanies.


    Of course, the German Arms Company is involved in light weapons, which poses no threat to Krupp for the time being. Krupp''s main business is various types of artillery. Especially the navy''srge-caliber naval gun, which is undoubtedly a gship product of Krupp, and otherpanies do not have this strength even if they want topete with it.


    Gustav Krupp and Beta Krupp also knew that since Qin Tian had already said so, even if they objected, it would be useless. In the whole of Germany, apart from Kaiser Wilhelm II, it is estimated that no one can make Qin Tian bow his head.


    Since it cannot be stopped, it is better to choose to support it. In this case, the rtionship between the two parties can be further strengthened.


    Thinking of this, Gustav Krupp immediately made a decision in his mind.


    "Yes, Mr. Krupp. I intend to enter the field of arms. Of course, I only enter this field to a limited extent. Although thebat effectiveness of the German Army is the best in the world, we still have a lot of potential to tap. Especially In terms of light weapons, we have not formed an overwhelming advantage over other countries. Therefore, I hope that we can achieve results in this field, so that thebat effectiveness of the German Army can be further improved. This is crucial for Germany to win in the future War is very necessary. After all, our navy has be stronger, which can certainly give us a great chance of winning. But in the end, we must rely on the army to defeat the enemy andplete the upation of the enemy''s country." Qin God said.


    Gustav Krupp nodded.


    "His Royal Highness, how do you need Krupp''s support?" Gustav Krupp asked.


    "Mr. Krupp, for the Deutsche Arms Company, I hope that Krupp can take a stake in it. That is to say, the two of us jointly hold the shares of the Deutsche Arms Company to achieve a strong alliance. I think this is for both of us It’s very beneficial.” After Qin Tian finished speaking, he looked at Gustav Krupp, waiting for his answer. He believed that Gustav Krupp would not refuse.
