"My Führer, I am willing to carry out your order. Your information is very accurate and worthy of our attention." Goering saw that Hess and the Führer were standing together, and naturally he would not argue any more.
On the contrary, at such a time, he would only make his air force more resolute in implementing the Fuhrer's orders.
This is a very simple topic, that is, in the precise positions provided by the Führer, there are actually not many targets.
Just throw in a batch of Stuka bombers and you can blow these sites to the ground.
And then the Fuhrer's order was similar to Göring's idea: to concentrate the superior force of his own air force and attack all the air bases that could be found in the south of England.
Of course...because of the information of the Führer, various detailed maps in later generations, the German Air Force already knows everything about the airfields where the British fought within half the time of the German aircraft.
For a few small goals, insisting on not executing the Führer's instructions is simply not proportional to the benefit.
So Goering couldn't afford to confront the Führer and the Deputy Führer on this issue. He naturally nodded in agreement, without any hesitation.
"The Air Force will carry out your order, there is no doubt." Now that Goering had made up his mind, he naturally gave his promise.
"Very good!" Li Le nodded, temporarily believing Goering's promise, and then he looked at Admiral Raidl.
At this time, Rader knew that the "Sea Lion Project", which the Führer was most concerned about, was going to ask him about the navy.
"The Führer... Ensuring the landing site is a very complicated joint operation. Before August, the German navy could not ensure the safety of the landing waters at all..." He hurriedly opened his mouth and blocked the Führer's mouth in advance.
Li Le looked at his admiral. Instead of expecting the navy to fight against the British mainland fleet head-on, he might as well expect Dönitz's submarine and Goering's plane to come.
Of course, he wouldn't believe the nonsense of "the Navy will be ready in August".
And he is also very clear that before 41 years ago, landing in the British mainland, the navy had no ability to execute.
As a person from later generations, Li Le fully knows how much the German Navy has, and almost all of his family assets are left near Norway.
Of the few remaining warships, which one is not registered in the little black book of the British Royal Navy?
"Okay, I know your navy is suffering, so you don't need to cry." Li Le waved his hand and said.
He waved his hand and said his thoughts: "I'm not asking about the sea lion project. You can explain it to me in the spring of 1941, and I'll be satisfied."
Rader was stunned for a moment. Every time he mentioned the sea lion plan before, the Yuan capital urged the navy to complete the preparations as soon as possible.
But only the navy knows that landing in Britain and landing in Norway are not the same level of battle at all.
The navy was simply unable to maintain the landing point for the landing operation, and reluctantly investing in troops would only annihilate the entire German warship near the English Channel.
Apart from this ending, there will be no more endings at all - as for whether it is two battleships or one more aircraft carrier, the ending is exactly the same.
The Head of State has changed sex? Rader looked at the head of state who had clearly told him that the sea lion plan was to be postponed not far away, and suddenly felt a little moved...
you know me! He sighed in his heart.
"What the Navy needs to ensure at this stage is the shipyard's affairs, digest the French docks as soon as possible, and increase the number of submarines." Li Le has a set of his own arrangements for the German Navy.
He hopes that his limited fleet can exert the greatest strength. Instead of wasting in the English Channel, it is better to go to the ocean and block the British transportation lines.
This time, it is no longer a battleship of the Besmarck, but a fleet of two battleships, two cruisers and an aircraft carrier!
With a fleet of this size, he is confident that he will entrap the British mainland fleet again, destroy the British fleet's superiority in the Atlantic Ocean, and trap the British on the British Isles.
"Until the aircraft carrier Zeppelin and the battleship Tirpitz have combat effectiveness, the naval surface ships will not have new missions." He finally gave Raedel a reassurance.
Then, the head of state continued to say amazingly: "However, the submarine force must be strengthened to more than 200 within this period of time! Submarines with a tonnage of more than 1,000 tons! Don't fool me with some small things of 450 tons!"
When Dönitz heard the news, an expression of joy appeared on his face immediately. He sat at the end of the entire conference room, and even speaking was an extravagant hope.
But the Führer was like a roundworm in his stomach, saying what he was not qualified to say, or could not say.
"Submarine construction must be the top priority! I need to form a scale of more than 200 submarines before 41 years, strangling the British transportation line!" Li Le pointed his finger to the Atlantic Ocean behind the British map.
"Goering, 40 long-range reconnaissance planes, provide reconnaissance intelligence for the Navy wolves to ensure that these submarines can find and have the opportunity to attack the enemy's transport fleet!" He expressed his hope.
"Don't be in a hurry to refuse! I'll give you back your 40 planes, and I'll give you 80 new ones!" Li Le confidently gave his solution.
Goering looked at Li Le and Dönitz who was sitting farthest away, frowned and didn't speak.
The air marshal knew that in recent days, the Führer and a large group of technical officers, as well as real engineers and scientists, had been fighting fiercely.
The Führer summoned many people, including Kesselring, Krupp, Dönitz, and Student.
It seems that the current Fuhrer has learned a lot from these officers who really understand technology and tactics, so it is getting more and more difficult to fool the Fuhrer now.
And Göring never thought that the Führer summoned these officers, businessmen or engineers not to learn from these people, but to force these related people to do more professional things.
For example, Krupp, with the task of developing the follow-up model of the No. 4 tank, went to Porsche and other tank production companies for a meeting.
Similarly, just yesterday, a German-related gun production company drew a drawing of the STG-44 assault rifle. The world's first real assault rifle was released four years ahead of schedule.
Dr. Grunau was also on the list summoned by the Führer. After he returned, he used a large number of stamping parts to improve the German Type 34 machine gun.
It seems that everyone came back with heavy tasks, and these tasks gave birth to German weapons as if they were plug-ins.
Many are just a layer of window paper, punctured by German engineers and designers. They came up with more and better designs and improved a lot of weapons.
Simplify the production process on a large scale, simplify and ignore many unnecessary links. Sophisticated German weapons become classics in no time at the appropriate lowering of the index.
For example, the No. 4 tank, under the urging of the Fuehrer, redesigned the head, adopted the inclined front armor, and matched the tank turret with heavier armor.
This new type of No. 4 tank retains the reliable action mechanism and engine, reduces the 57-direction flashy structural design in the interior space, and uses a simple cotton pad to cancel the original leather seat.
When these modifications were just applied to the production line, many people thought that the head of state was insane.
However, after a few days, after everyone got used to omitting these changes, the average production of the No. 4 tank increased by as much as one a day.
Compared with the details that will be blown up as the tanks are scrapped, but are hardly used on weekdays, it is obvious that the army generals are more satisfied with the delivery of one more tank per day.
Although the head of state was still talking about various arrangements at the meeting, the people in the meeting room who could talk were no longer in the meeting.
Both Goering and Hess remembered a question from the previous head of state, a question about Libyan oil fields.
The reason why Goering gave in so quickly on the bombing target was also because he was more concerned about the new oil field of the Fuhrer.
The matter is almost obvious, since the head of state can obtain accurate information to defeat the British fleet, since the head of state cares so much about the safety of the Mediterranean transport line, UU reading www. uukanshu.com So Libyan oil fields, it is really possible that it is true!
The state took more than half of it, the merchants who borrowed the money and the oil factory that provided materials and equipment took a small half, and the rest belonged to the head of state...
If what the head of state said before is true, even if there is only a 1% share, the oil fields in Libya will turn investors into billionaires overnight!
So, the head of state and Dönitz over there were chatting, and Hess and Goering were both thinking about how much they would risk to invest in exchange for Libyan shares.
"Before attacking the British mainland, the air force needs to conduct a large-scale actual combat test in the Mediterranean..." Goering took advantage of Li Le's opportunity to stop for a drink and cast his chips.
Li Le of course understood that this was Goering asking him for a share of the oil field. He is also happy to tie the Air Force boss to his chariot.
He nodded, smiled at Göring and said, "Marshal Göring! If the Air Force is willing to use paratroopers to fight, then I intend to capture Malta."
"My head of state, attacking Malta... needs the support of the Italian Navy!" Goering was very happy because he heard what he wanted to hear.
"If they can provide this kind of support, my troops will capture this island for you!" The air marshal is very confident, and his paratroopers are now one of the most elite offensive forces in the empire.
"Very good! Then, before attacking Britain, hurry up and seize the island of Malta! We need it there! We need it very much!" For the sake of oil resources, Li Le had to make the Mediterranean route monolithic.
