Chapter 15: Giants (2)
The Third Reich under Ten Thousand Characters Volume 4: The Sorrow of France Chapter 15: Giant Two
"I cannot fully consider many invisible parties, and it depends on you to monitor it.. Heidrich, repeat Betan's peace proposal."
Xu Yang sent off top talents in the scientific community such as Albert Einstein and began to pay attention to the development of the situation. Previously, Xu Yang had no general impression of many small details. In his conversation with Albert Einstein and others, Xu Yang got an unexpected surprise, that is, these scientific wizards have solved the problem of some rocket-boosting engines, and long-range rockets can be mass-produced in the near future. Xu Yang's reason was that France was doomed to be defeated soon, but due to the existence of the English Channel, the German army could not threaten the British mainland and could only rely on wolves and a large number of HNA fighter jets to blockade, which is not advisable. In the future, there must be a weapon that can attack the British Isles. At this time, we received the news that the rocket engine was already complete. How could Xu Yang not be ecstatic?
Xu Yang remembers that in history, the multi-barrel rocket launcher was the first weapon developed by the Soviets and used in military combat. Now, German spies in the Soviet Union have also sent back some fragmented information, proving that the Soviets had already begun to test rocket launcher weapons in January 193, which is definitely not good news for the German Third Reich.
Germany must first develop long-range attack weapons than any country in the world. Although long-range ** can be moved to attack, this weapon has great limitations. First of all, the accuracy rate of long-range ** is really unsatisfactory. This weapon is just an excessive product in Xu Yang's opinion. The British are different from the French. Bombing London means provoking the British's revenge. The British will never lose the determination to resist when the capital is bombarded by shelling. The islanders have a thought that others do not understand, which is that they are prone to falling into paranoid pathological **.
Germany currently has a large number of medium-range tactical bombers, Henkel 111, but this is far from enough. Currently, the Gripen improved model, Henkel 1175, has replaced the Stark DB-610 engine. In mid-April 1940, after Henkel and Stark launched a comprehensive technical cooperation, the Gripen production reached 120 aircraft per month, almost 7 aviation bombers were equipped with 7 aviation bombers per month. The Henkel 111 has been equipped with a large number of German Air Force. This tactical bomber has two models, one for the land tactical bomber, which is specialized in land bombing. The other is a model that is entirely designed to perform sea combat shooting. The HNA expulsion tactical bomber Henkel 177 has added a 37 cannon on its abdomen. This can effectively pose a threat to enemy ships.
There is also a short-range HNA dive destroyer, which is Stuka. This fighter can be directly served on the aircraft carrier after being modified. Currently, two HNA Emirs, with two squadrons in neutrality, are serving on the USS Zeppelin and Seidlez. In order to cope with the increasingly fierce naval war, the construction of other aircraft carriers is also being accelerated. It is expected that Germany's third USS Bavaria and the fourth USS Prussian aircraft carrier can be launched in late June. The three months after these two aircraft carriers are in service are also the best time for Germany to land on the British Islands.
Of course, Germany's primary enemy is France at present, and another thing is that it is necessary to pay attention to the ready-going Soviet Union. After the Soviet Union went to war with Finland, it was very embarrassing that it did not achieve any results. The Soviet army was defeated by Finnish infantry in the ice and snow. She had no choice but to fight Finnish snipers and sled infantry, and was forced to be blocked by Finnish troops in the Vyborg Forest and could not move forward. For this reason, all signs indicate that the Soviet Union turned its attention to southern Europe, which was Romania.
After the Battle of Poland, Romania had already urgently felt the pressure from the Soviet Union. In order to express goodwill to the Third Reich of Germany, Romania took the initiative to hand over the Polish exiled government in Romania to the hands of the Third Reich of Germany, which also opened the door to cooperation.
As we all know, the Third German Empire was very short of oil production. This was definitely a big flaw for the German armored forces. In order to obtain the priority purchase rights of oil in southern Romania, the German government was very happy to be a part of the Romanian German Axis.
Xu Yang realized that there was a loophole in the "German-Soviet Treaty". In order to make up for this loophole, he suggested that the Third Reich government of Hal signed an agreement with Romania, that is, when Romania was attacked by foreign countries, Germany had the obligation to declare war on that country, both: to openly guarantee Romania's majeure and territorial integrity.
Of course, this was also questioned by the Soviet Union. The relationship between the two countries began to show rifts due to the Soviet Union's territorial ambitions for southern Europe. In the later battle with Finland, the Soviet Union found German sniper rifles on the battlefield, which further widened the rift. The Soviet Foreign Ministry sent a note to the Third Reich of Germany to condemn Germany's betrayal. The German Foreign Ministry refuted the reason that the treaty did not restrict the sale of weapons to the warring parties. In this regard, both sides began to quietly carry out their own careers. Everyone knew that both sides were looking for loopholes in the treaty and gain more resources as soon as possible to deal with the imminent war.
On the first day Xuyang returned to Berlin, the Soviet Union announced to the world that Estonia officially joined the Soviet Union as a franchise republic. Everyone knew that Estonia was annexed by the Soviet Union, just like the German Third Reich annexed Poland. After the Soviet Union annexed Estonia, it pointed its sword at Latvia. It has to be explained that Latvia and Estonia signed a military alliance treaty, so during the Soviet invasion of Estonia, Latvia was already in a state of war. After listening to the report on the situation in the Soviet Union, Yang wanted to know what the new French Prime Minister Beden wanted to do.
"Oh? You mean; the new French Prime Minister Beden is willing to live in peace with us. Recognize the title of German Third Reich as the European leader? Is he kidding? The war has begun, but he wants the German Army to withdraw from France's territory. At the cost, he only recognizes Germany as the European leader!"
Heidrich added: "He is willing to ced most of the northern French territory to our country on the condition that the security of the southern part of France under his government."
Xu Yang nodded slowly and asked meaningfully: "What else?"
Heidrich took out another document, glanced at it, and said, "Yes, he hoped that our army could release the Maginot Line and the French troops in northern France back to the south. In addition, Betan secretly asked us to wipe out the British Expeditionary Force in French territory."
Xu Yang asked strangely: "That old guy has a grudge against the British?"
Heidrich obviously did not understand why Betton secretly attached this request, and he expressed his advice. "Sir, I don't think he can accept Betton's proposal. We have the power to occupy France with force, and we don't need to leave a country that can threaten the security behind us at any time."
"Of course, of course..." Xu Yang has received a notice that the command was planning a combat plan to attack the Soviet Union. According to the current situation, Germany asked the Soviet Union to occupy Latvia. Once Latvia is occupied by the CIS, East Prussia of the Third Reich of Germany would face the danger of being driven straight into the country. In addition, various clues prove that Britain is secretly negotiating with the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union also seems to want to ignore Germany's ** to ensure that it invades Romania by force.
Xu Yang firmly believed that as long as Britain could give the Soviet Union enough benefits, the polar bear would never mind stabbing Germany in the back. For this reason, German top leaders generally believed that it should take the initiative, that is, invade the Soviet Union before the Soviet Union was ready. She was caught off guard. German top leaders had this idea, mainly because there were 1.6 million German SS and 210,000 foreign divisions in Poland. As long as the National Defense Force quickly resolved France and Britain, it could turn around and compete with the Soviet Union.
Xu Yang asked seriously: "The Soviet Union is ready to launch military operations against our country?" He might shout in his heart: It's incredible.
Heidrich never guessed anything himself. He only believed in evidence. "There is no detail that the Soviet Union was about to tear apart the non-aggression treaty to attack our country. I personally think that these are just smoke created by the allies. They want us to pull our strength back to the east, especially Britain, where she was cut off by our navy and air force. Life must be very difficult. In order to get us back, the Sixth Intelligence Department had a very conflict with the Soviet Union. Those stupid senior officials said that the commander always only looked at some superficial information. Now the rush to start a war with the Soviet Union will only lead Germany to perish."
Xu Yang fell into deep thought. He is not afraid of no intelligence now. Instead, there is too much intelligence and mixed information, which makes him deeply feel that there are two intelligence agencies in Germany, really unreasonable. "Reinhard, are you confident that you can lead an intelligence agency with a huge architecture and use it perfectly?"
Heidrich paid a firm tribute, "Yes, Your Excellency Leader, for your cause, I am confident that your intelligence department will become the world's most elite intelligence organization."
Xu Yang suddenly changed the topic, "Now ignore the hero of Verdun. In the next period of time, we should think carefully about how to log in to England."
"You seem to be very confident in the troops in France?" Heidrich wanted to ask this question very early.
"I was wondering how to push the position's time backwards. Now the station does not seem to be the best time, and I have not witnessed many things yet." Xu Yang avoided answering.
The two began a conversation about the wrong words...
"I always feel that you are different from many people, as if everything will happen in the future is within your control."
"The Henkel 1775 strategic bomber can take off from Paris to bomb London, England, but its escort, Messerchmid, can only be located in the English Channel, which is not good. The Viper B349 jointly developed by Stark, Messerchmid and Henkel will not be put into service in June 1941, and the piston fighter should be retired.
"I can't even guess why you suddenly returned to the country when you commanded the French Legion and were supposed to continue to attack southern France? Your Excellency, the Imperial Division, and the Skeleton Division should not seem to enjoy the glory of accepting your personal review, and they have not created any record."
"Maybe what should be strengthened now is the Navy? The Hindenburg-class battleships no longer meet the requirements of the times. If it weren't for the need for powerful sea fire support to land in Britain, these battleships shouldn't have been built at all. Oh! It seems that the Navy has proposed a construction plan to add five battleships? This kind of four-dimensional warship is really useful? What's weird! The future naval battle is no longer a big artillery victory. With the emergence of aircraft carriers, winning by sea aircraft is the king. So... by the way! How many heavy cruisers are we in manufacturing? How many can we serve in the next year?"
“…????”
Xu Yang looked at Heidrich with a momentum called majesty in his eyes. After a long time, he slowly stood up and walked to the military map of the interior wall. The map he looked at represented the blue arrows of the German army and the red Allied defense lines. Xu Yang turned his gaze to the East Anglia Channel, where there was a clear sign, which directly pointed Dunkork around some faint red arrows at Dunkork. Two blue arrows with numbers also pointed directly at Dunkork, and these two blue arrows represent Guderian's 19th Armored Army, Rommel's 3rd Armored Division, and the 12th Motorized Division.
"Godrian's 19th Armored Division, Rommel's 3rd Armored Division, and the 12th Motorized Division are attacking Laon. Weigang has taken over as commander-in-chief of the French Army. I believe the French army should fight back soon. Joseph!"
Since Joseph was indoors just now, he always pretended to be an unimportant person. He never spoke unless necessary. Whenever Xu Yang summoned him, he always answered immediately: "Yes, my leader!"
Xu Yang frowned, "Where is the 9th Armored Division of the 15th Army and the 10th Motorcycle Division in Xiao Meng?"
Joseph did not think, and Ma replied: "My leader, the 9th Armored Division, is currently on the border between Chaumon and Dijon, where they are stubbornly blocked. The 10th Motorized Division cleaned up the remaining French troops in Chaumon's territory. During this period, the remaining French troops became strong in consciousness. The French army seemed to have received some new orders, and the small groups were moving closer to the large troops, and the remaining French troops in the occupied areas of our army were trying their best to destroy our communication system."
Xu Yang knew in his heart: The first wave of French counterattack is coming! Telephone!
