Chapter 69: challenge
Cyric still underestimated the difficulty of the technique.
At the base in Libya, the designers who used it for five years, with the shame of World War I, put into intense work, and finally turned into a cross-age Panther tank.
At the beginning of the 1930s, when almost all advanced industrial countries were still manufacturing light tanks, Cyric had already set his sights on the future and manufactured tanks that surpassed the entire era.
At that time, it can be said to be quite excited.
However, after this tank was manufactured, various technical failures have been plagued all technicians.
Tank technology is not accomplished overnight. Problems with tank processing technology, various materials, etc. will cause tank failures.
The tank shown to Hindenburg and others was only a prototype.
In the past few years, the personnel in the Libyan base are still studying with great concentration. With continuous research, they have overcome each technical problem. Now, the Panther tank has gradually matured.
It’s just that those hand-built tanks are put in the factory for production, which is another new challenge! You know, industrialized production methods, but there will be many defective products, these will affect the reliability of the tank.
Therefore, it is not yet possible to build in large quantities. At the same time, this is also due to the requirement of confidentiality. Now, after Hitler has truly mastered the power of the empire, it is handed over to Krupp to conduct small batch trial production and overcome the craft On the problem, then, when needed, it can be built in large quantities!
Of course, at Krupp, it is still a confidential project, and it is just an ordinary tractor.
At the same time, following Cyric to the desert base, Guderian's armored soldiers who researched various tactics can finally have a large number of tanks!
According to Cyric's plan, the initial production tanks need to be secretly transported to Libya, and then handed over to the armored soldiers to toss in the Libyan desert and constantly train their combat techniques.
It’s just that, now we need to give them an explanation and let them return to the Wehrmacht sequence! Cyric is vying for a name for them. The honorary title of Germany's first armored division must be handed over to Guderian. This is what Cyric owes Guderian!
Hitler nodded. Hitler agreed with Cyric's plan. Now, as long as he nodded again, Blomburg must have nothing to say.
Who knows, Blomberg hasn’t spoken yet. Scarface Roma sitting on the side has already spoken first: "I think that when the tank is produced, it should be handed over to our stormtrooper. Now, our stormtrooper. , The equipment is too backward! Our 4.5 million stormtroopers have only light weapons, and they simply cannot shoulder the responsibility of defending our country."
Stormtroopers!
In the past two years, the stormtrooper has developed like a snowball, and now there are 4.5 million people!
In contrast, the National Defense Force has only 100,000 people. Even if it grows, it has only just developed to 150,000. Now Roma is already quite proud.
Bibi, the number of people, I'm dozens of times yours! Moreover, in his words, he has clearly conveyed a signal that the stormtroopers should replace the national defense forces!
"Rome, don't talk nonsense!" Before General Blomburg could speak, Hitler had begun to scold him: "We are now discussing the Wehrmacht expansion plan. It has nothing to do with the stormtroopers. You can shut up! "
Rom's eyes were cold, and he swept over everyone, and finally fixed his position on General Blomberg: "We defeated the First World War and shamefully reduced it to 100,000 people. Don't worry about such a national defense army!"
After finishing speaking, Roma stood up: "Since there is nothing to do with me, then I will leave first."
arrogant! arrogant!
"Mr. President, the stormtroopers are now over-inflated. We must be vigilant. If such an organization is out of your control, it will be irreparable." Blomberg said.
Hitler's face was ugly. He knew that by doing this, Roma was actually trying to put pressure on himself. With the continuous expansion of the stormtroopers, Roma has always been full of illusions and wanted to make the stormtroopers the real Germany. The military force replaces the National Defense Forces!
Today, it is equivalent to Roma challenging the Wehrmacht!
Brave but inexorable! Cyric, who had not spoken just now, knew that Rom's death was not far away!
If Roma really wants to seize power, he should be gentle on the surface and paralyze everyone, especially the military! Then, when the time was right, he suddenly attacked and killed the entire officer corps!
Just get rid of the leaders who are still in the army. The army has no heads, and it will soon be chaotic. When that happens, Hitler can only rely on Roma's stormtroopers. .
Rome is just such a challenge, only to make Hitler hate him more and more, until Hitler can't bear it, he will raise his butcher knife!
"The 4.5 million stormtroopers are really too many. These people are not engaged in production and are a burden on society." Blomberg said: "Mr. President, I suggest that two-thirds of the stormtroopers should be Cut it down, and the remaining one-third must be disarmed, so as to ensure the stability of our German country."
Now, it is Blomberg who is on behalf of the army to negotiate terms! If Hitler wanted the army to trust him, he had to sacrifice the stormtrooper!
For Hitler, this is of course difficult to choose. Although the appearance of Roma just now embarrassed Hitler, after all, Hitler started from the stormtrooper. At the beginning, the stormtrooper followed Hitler in the beer hall. Now , If Hitler sacrificed the stormtrooper, it would be emotionally difficult to accept.
"Aren't we just discussing the expansion plan?" Cyric hurriedly said: "Now, let's continue with the topic just now. I propose that the newly formed armored division should have Guderian as the commander. What do you think?"
"Yes, let's discuss the expansion plan first." Hitler said: "About the stormtroopers, we will discuss in detail another day. I agree with Guderian."
Blomberg also knows to advance and retreat. At this time, we can no longer continue the topic just now, but the army will definitely be prepared!
Stormtrooper, that group of hooligans, ground ruffians, actually want to replace the defense army! I really don’t know that the sky is so great!
"Guderian is a good talent, and he can do it." Blomberg also returned to the topic just now.
