Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 281: Planning
However, the heads of state’s Australian plan can only be an idea at present, because the problems between the Southeast Asian colonies are still a mess. Only after the local forces are integrated can they be freed to operate the rear, Xu Junke I didn't want to spend a lot of manpower and material resources, but ended up with a basket of water to make wedding clothes for others.
To be honest, wanting to accomplish this goal in a short time is just a luxury at present. But it is not clueless. At present, the Dutch government has shown an unreserved cooperative attitude. This is the Dutch response to Xu Jun's agreement to release the royal family members and allow the Dutch government to remain. Of course, it is also related to the pro-German elements fostered by most of the members of the new government. At present, the anti-German voice in the Netherlands has basically disappeared, or it may be hidden underground, so it has passed the test of Xu Jun in this country. Before, strict supervision was needed for the time being.
Although the Dutch government is extremely simple to kneel down, it does not mean that the Dutch East Indies will be willing to be at the mercy of the country. Most of the Dutch immigrants there have multiplied in the local area for several generations, and the Netherlands can only rely on rotating management officials and businesses. Trade strives to maintain the bond between the local and the mainland, so exerting a certain amount of external pressure on the local government and dispatching sufficient force to deter is the first task to be done. The Netherlands has long been no longer the carriage driver of the sea. Both military and financial resources have shrunk seriously, and it has become a foil for other European powers. However, the Netherlands still has a profound influence in Southeast Asian countries. After all, they have been in the mysterious East for two centuries, and their network of relationships is spread over every inch of land there, and there are traces of greedy Dutch merchants everywhere.
The military power of the Dutch East Indies is mainly used to suppress the indigenous people in the colonial area. Because of its geographical advantages, it has not encountered any threat from foreign forces. Regardless of the Dutch armed forces in Europe, It can be used as a joke, but it is enough to crush a lot of South Asian tribes and indigenous countries. Xu Jun has no appetite for the poorly equipped and poorly trained colonial armed forces. The Dutch East Indies can only attract him with rubber medicines and abundant oil. The Dutch have already taken out part of the state-controlled shares of the oil company. The Imperial Oil Company under the Stade Consortium will intervene in this lucrative business. It is currently preparing to invest several million marks to promote and expand local production. The money also includes the purchase of petrochemical technology from Shell of the Netherlands, such as the production of high-octane fuel and the research and development of the latest antiknock agents. The German Wehrmacht has a very strong interest in it.
The current source of fuel in Germany is no longer as single as in history. Oil companies belonging to France and the United Kingdom have begun supplying crude oil and finished products to Germany. After the previously closed Mediterranean route was reopened, several original oil fields in the Middle East The crude oil started to be continuously delivered to the European continent, which finally solved part of the current energy demand gap.
Xu Jun has focused on the high-yield oil regions in Africa and Arabia. Most of the oil fields are still buried in the Gobi Desert. Taking advantage of the fact that this area has only European power, some countries have not had a chance Stretching out his arm here, Xu Jun is ready to unite several European countries to firmly control this dungeon of wealth together. The specific operation needs to be negotiated. I believe the British and French governments will make wise choices. As for the undiscovered oil fields in the Italian colony, Xu Jun is still considering how to kick that big chin out. He will not give this guy the slightest chance to sell himself until the Italian government returns to normal.
In recent years, the development of local resources in Europe is not as comprehensive as that of later generations. There are still many undiscovered resources in various places. Because of the vast land and sparse population, in addition to some residential areas, there are still a large number of original conditions in the wild. There are a lot of minerals that will be valuable in the future. Xu Jun plans to conduct a comprehensive resource survey of the countries in the controlled area after the domestic order of various countries is restored, and to rush to mine some important minerals.
For example, uranium mines in France and tungsten mines in Austria. These are precious mineral deposits that are vital to war right now. Especially the Mittersill scheelite mine in Austria, which is a rare high-quality open-pit deposit in the world. If it weren’t accidentally discovered in the early 1970s, who would have thought that the most needed tungsten ore in Germany would be exposed to the sun. The rain was exposed to the Alps. In ten years, this scheelite mine produced 2.6 million tons of high-quality ore, replaced by the German style of the war period. As long as enough manpower and material resources are invested, the output here is enough to meet the needs of the entire Europe. As for Spain? Just let that **** Franco ride on the wall and play by himself.
Because the open-pit mine is convenient, Xu Jun estimates that the foundation and supporting facilities of the first phase of the mine will be built within two months, and the first batch of precious ores will be mined before the end of the year. From then on, tungsten sand will no longer be a scarce material in Germany. German tankers no longer need to use tungsten core armor-piercing projectiles carefully. Equipment such as cone guns can also be distributed in large quantities. The Wehrmacht’s anti-armor capabilities will be greatly enhanced. Promote.
Let’s talk about France’s uranium mines, because the world’s development of nuclear energy is just in its infancy. At present, the French are basically blank about their own domestic uranium mine development. Who would have thought that a quarter of the nuclear fuel needed in France in the future? All three are mined locally. However, due to various ridiculous reasons, Germany’s own atomic energy research is no longer known where it is crooked. Before turning them back completely, Xu Jun can only do some preliminary investigations and surveys, plus some at most. Preparation work before mining. Because it’s about confidentiality, matters in this area must be carried out cautiously after completing a complete set of peripheral secrecy work. Be especially careful not to attract the attention of the outside world. You must know that the Manhattan Project on the other side has not yet officially opened at this time. The success of the “Ir Plan” will directly affect the balance of power in the entire world.
The topic went a bit farther, now I turn back to Frederick Air Force Base. After eating lunch, Xu Jun walked for a while on the small road outside the restaurant with his hands back, breathing the air that was warmed by the sun all afternoon. The weather in Calais has been sunny for the past few days. The happiest pilots are the pilots. This is the best time for flight training, and the fighter formation can fly wild in the sky without restraint. An FW190 squad lined up in a neat four-plane formation flying over at high speed from the low altitude near the command restaurant, and the air resounded with the kind of visceral roar.
This type of fighter has entered finalized production. Thanks to Xu Jun’s suggestion, the production process has been greatly simplified. At the same time, the production plant has increased the shifts of manufacturing personnel instead of stubbornly insisting on the eight-hour single-shift system. Now it has been changed to three sets of staff alternating with each other, 24 hours a day, 24 hours a day, although the cost seems to be twice the staff’s salary, but the machine tools and processing space are used to the greatest extent, speeding up the product Production speed, while reducing part of the waste of manpower and resources, on the contrary, saves production costs and increases the profits obtained by the enterprise. More importantly, it has increased the number of domestic jobs and trained a large number of important skilled workers. There is still room for improvement in production speed in the future. The Luftwaffe is very satisfied with this type of fighter. It has signed the first batch of 400 orders, and at the same time requires the immediate start of research and development of improved models, such as high-altitude and long-range and special reconnaissance types. The Air Force is willing to bear part of the funds.
"Good noon, my Führer." Weirler walked over quickly carrying a briefcase.
"Good noon, General, is there anything important?" Xu Jun smiled and asked his confidant.
"This is the report just sent by Odin's Eye. I think you will want to see it as soon as possible." Weierle took out a document from the document bag and handed it respectfully to Xu Jun.
"It seems that the plan is progressing smoothly." Opening the folder, Xu Jun just looked at the two lines and couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"Yes, my head of state, our intelligence personnel are very capable. The other party has made it clear that they are willing to cooperate with us. With the original documents in our hands and the written testimony of Churchill, our plan has been more than half successful." Weierle replied respectfully.
"I agree with your plan to meet the requirements of this intelligence team as much as possible, and remind them that they must pay attention to their personal safety. We must always take the initiative in the whole matter. From now on, this plan will be supervised by you. , I want to know every new development, Weierle." Xu Jun took out a pen from his chest pocket, wrote a reply under the document and signed his name and monogram.
"Yes, my head of state." Weierle took the folder and put it back in his briefcase.
"Weirle, regarding Southeast Asia, we need to increase our intelligence collection." Xu Jun continued to pacify slowly with his hands behind his back, and Weierle followed closely with his briefcase. .
"The Odin’s Eye team in the German special mission has been fully active~IndoMTL.com~I ordered them to submit a preliminary report on this incident before tonight. Because they have been focusing on In collecting information on French Indochina, the team made a mistake in its judgment and is trying to make up for it."
"Brumberg has contacted the Chinese government." Xu Jun asked.
"I just contacted. It is said that the Chinese side was very shocked and happy after hearing the news. The Marshal was going to send a lead liaison officer to Chongqing. He will report to the mission what he has seen there upon arrival."
"You don't know China. What you see there is not necessarily true, but it doesn't matter." Xu Jun stopped and took out a cigar from his pocket.
"Since the Chinese government has been contacted, the Japanese will know about the existence of the special envoy within one or two days. I really want to see the expression of the Japanese Prime Minister after learning this news." Xu Jun struck a match. I lit the cigar in my mouth.
