My German Empire

Chapter 3: Herman Obert

Back in the parking lot, Wilhelm, who was about to get in the car, kicked hard on the tires.

Einstein, this old man pretends to be noble, if he was not worried about chilling the hearts of other scientists, he really wanted to throw him into a dark prison. After all, his mind contains all the papers published by Einstein in original time and space, so if something happens, just sign his own name and publish those papers. How much influence can it possibly have on the scientific development of this time and space?

Wilhelm got into the car angrily only after cursing Einstein a lot in his heart. "Don't go back yet."

He talked to Einstein about the idea of developing nuclear weapons. Who knows if this old man will go to the United States like the original time and space to write to the US President Roosevelt to suggest the creation of an atomic bomb.

Thinking of the destructive power of nuclear weapons, even Japan, which was preparing for a dying battle, obediently surrendered in the end. Wilhelm couldn't help but shudder. After all, no one wants an atomic bomb to fall on their own head.

Thinking of this, Wilhelm told Annie. "Tell Mr. Hans to send someone to watch Einstein. If he dares to go to the United States... I'll be deciding at that time." It was 1933 when Einstein went to the United States in the original space-time, when Hitler officially became The German Chancellor, the Nazi Party aggressively hunted Jews, and the ethnic conflict was extremely serious. After Einstein went to the United States, he did not return to Germany. He obtained American citizenship in 1940.

There is no Hitler now, and there is no Nazi Party currently. Although there is discrimination against Jews in Germany, the whole of Europe is now in an anti-Semitism state, and the United States is not much better.

Annie agreed. "I understand, Your Highness."

After the car drove for a while, Wilhelm staring at the scenery out of the car window indifferently suddenly saw a simple platform on the side of the road. On the platform stood a cylindrical column more than two meters high and didn't know what its purpose was. There were a few young people nearby who were giving impassioned explanations to the few people around.

"..."What the hell?

A few minutes later, Wilhelm suddenly shouted. "stop!!"

Ina slammed the brakes, and Annie, who was sitting in the co-pilot, sprinted forward, almost smashing the windshield. And Wilhelm even hit the back of the hard co-pilot unsuspectingly, hitting him with gold stars.

"Fuck Ina, do you know how to drive?! Are you deliberately trying to kill us? What kind of broken car, don't even have a seat belt?!" Wilhelm was holding his head while swearing in his heart frantically, Ina and Annie had already drawn-out their pistols and looked around nervously. "His Royal Highness, are you okay? What happened?"

"I'm fine..." Wilhelm shook his dizzy head and pointed to the back. "Go back the same way."

Ina asked worriedly. "Yes, Your Highness, are you okay?" She saw His Highness hit the back of the seat just now, and heard a loud bang.

"It's okay." Wilhelm lowered his head and searched for a seat belt but It seems that the seat belt has not yet been invented at this time. "Go back quickly."

After the car drove back for less than two minutes, Wilhelm saw the young people walking down the road while carrying the cylindrical object.

"There's a few of them. Miss Annie, can you go down and ask who they are?"

"Yes." Annie got out of the car and ran to stop the people after the car stopped, and then returned to report after asking a lot. "His Royal Highness, they are members of the 'Astronautical Association' just established last year. They want to raise research funds around here these days."

Astronautical Society? No wonder that thing looks so much like the original rocket. "Who is their president?"

"Hermann Obert." Wilhelm nodded secretly after hearing Annie's answer. This secretary is really competent, otherwise she would have to go out again to ask their president's name.

Their president is Hermann Obert...?

Wilhelm almost laughed out loud.

At this time, Germany is really full of talents, and you can hit famous celebrities in future generations by kicking a stone on the road.

Hermann Obert, who was the father of the famous European rocket, a German rocket expert, and one of the founders of modern astronautics, was a pioneer in space as well as Tsiolkovsky and Goddard. His classic work on rocket propulsion is regarded as the "bible" in the aerospace field by a whole generation of engineers.

Unlike Einstein, he was not an anti-war person. In 1941 in the original time and space, Herman Obert went to the Peenemnde Research Center to participate in the development of the V-2 rocket. In 1943, he also formulated the A-9 and A-10 multi-stage rocket plans, intending to attack from the sea United States Washington.

Thinking of this, the extremely depressed mood due to Dr. Einstein's uncooperative attitude was suddenly wiped out. "Invite their president to have lunch with me."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned to the palace Hermann Obert was already standing there. "Salute to you, your royal prince."

Wilhelm stepped forward and greeted the distinguished guest warmly.

"Mr. Obert,I have been admiring your name for a long time. I heard that you are now the president of the Astronautical Association? Have you heard the story of flying to the moon?"

Obert smiled and nodded. "I have heard that I also bought that comic book to my youngest son, who also likes to read it."

Wilhelm motioned for him to sit on the sofa and smiled. "Of course it is a myth, but what I want to see is the scene of our Germans flying to the moon."

Obert couldn't help be stunned. "What does your royal prince mean?"

Wilhelm said very seriously. "What I mean is very clear, not only to let the rocket fly into the sky, but also to rush out of the atmosphere and fly to the moon. Then use the manned rocket to let our astronauts set foot on the moon. Of course, this is only the first step, the second step is to establish a base on the moon. This will be the starting point for humans to explore the universe. Then Mars, Jupiter, Saturn... One day we will fly out of the solar system and conquer the endless sea of stars!"

"His Royal Highness!!" Obert stood up excitedly. On the way, he racked his brains to figure out how to explain his rocket dream to the royal prince, so as to get more research funds. Unexpectedly, this young royal prince was bolder than him and looked farther. Compared with His Majesty's grand ideal, his dream of just wanting to launch a rocket into space is too small.

At this moment, he seemed to be excited as if Maximal met Bole, and immediately regarded Wilhelm as his life confidant.

Seeing his face flushed with excitement, Wilhelm decided to pour some cold water on him first, lest this guy belch with excitement. "Mr. Obert, please calm down and listen to me. This kind of aerospace project is bound to be a grand project and requires a long step forward in overall technology to complete. Take the most important rocket engine. Take the current technology and materials. , We can't even make an engine that can reach a considerable speed, can we? There are also various communication equipment, remote sensing devices, computers..." The mention of computers reminds Wilhelm of someone in the British Empire. A gay genius. He would be fifteen or sixteen years old now, so he had to find a way to abduct him to Germany.

Realizing his gaffe, he smiled awkwardly. "What the prince said is true, I'm just a little excited."
