"Führer, is it appropriate that we give them so many weapons for nothing?" Looking at the back of Radetzky leaving the presidential palace, Ludwig asked Leon suspiciously.

"Suitable, what's not suitable?" Leon chuckled, "As long as the Sudetenland is incorporated into us, then their people and army will be my people and army, and this batch of weapons is equivalent to arming ourselves." ”

"Yes." Ludwig nodded, "By the way, Führer, our Gestapo branch in Austria has sent back news that the 'Dawn Plan' has achieved the desired effect, and 80% of the top echelons of the Austrian government are willing to join us. ”

"Very well, what about the people of Austria?" Leon smiled confidently, "Is it the same as I expected?" ”

"Yes, Führer." Ludwig said with admiration, "The results of our secret investigation show that the vast majority of the Austrian people aspire to join Germany, and what a clever calculation the Führer has!" ”

"Hehe, it's not that I'm clever, but in such a bad environment now, only we in Germany can make bread for everyone." "I think as long as the Austrian people are not stupid, they understand that there is only good and no harm in annexing us," Leon said. ”

"Then when are we going to get Austria to report to the League of Nations and launch a referendum?" Ludwig asked.

"Don't be in a hurry now, wait for me to meet the new president of France and the new prime minister of Britain first, although Britain and France are now unable to protect themselves, we still can't ignore their threats."

"Okay, Führer, then I'll arrange the plane." Ludwig said respectfully.

"No, I don't make airplanes, I'll fly over on the aircraft carrier Deutschland." Leon smiled, "It's just time to arrange for our high seas fleet to go out for activities, I want to take a good look at our nascent fleet." ”

"Well, then I'll go to the Kiel military port and arrange for the fleet to be ready." Ludwig retreated.

Early the next morning, Lyon took Sophia to the military port of Kiel and boarded the aircraft carrier Deutschland.

The USS Deutschland is a new generation of aircraft carriers designed by Lyon's naval design team in 1927.

From the name of this class of aircraft carriers, you can see the high expectations that Lyon has placed on it.

The Deutsche class aircraft carriers were built into three, all of which were launched just before the economic crisis of 1929.

The first ship, the Deutsche String DF2 (DF is an acronym for aircraft carrier in German), has a standard displacement of 28,000 tons and a full load displacement of 34,000 tons.

In terms of carrier-based aircraft, it carries 24 ME109T, the carrier-based version of Germany's newest ME109A fighter, 36 JU-87 dive bombers, and 36 FI-167 torpedo attack aircraft, for a total of 96 aircraft.

In terms of power, it uses four of Germany's latest steam turbines, with a total output of a terrifying 160,000 horsepower, which gives the Deutsche class a high speed of 34 knots.

Speaking of ME109T, we have to talk about the latest ME109A fighter of the German Communist Army.

The ME109A is powered by a Mercedes-Benz engine with an output of 1,100 hp and a maximum level flight speed of 570 km/h.

In terms of armament, the ME109A is equipped with two MG17 7.92mm machine guns, and there is room for a 20mm cannon in the future.

It can be said that the ME109A fighter is now the most powerful fighter in the world, there is no one!

As soon as Lyon arrived on the Deutschland, the high seas fleet, which had already been ready, sounded its whistle and left the port one after another.

The current German High Seas Fleet is very powerful, although it is not comparable to Britain, France, and even Italy in terms of the number of battleships.

But in terms of naval aviation, the High Seas Fleet, with one Count Zeppelin-class aircraft carrier and three German-class aircraft carriers, can completely destroy all aircraft carrier fleets in Europe.

After the huge fleet had all sailed out of port, it began to adjust its formation, with four huge aircraft carriers in the middle of the formation, two Admiral-class battleships and six Admiral-Hipper-class heavy cruisers on the outside, and a sentinel fleet of 25 Z-class destroyers and seven Königsberg-class light cruisers on the outskirts.

After the completion of the large high seas fleet, it entered the Femarn Strait, from which it was planned to sail into the Baltic Sea, and finally from the Baltic Sea through the Skagerrak Strait into the North Sea.

After entering the North Sea and stabilizing the course, Leon stood alone on the deck of the aircraft carrier, blowing a faint salty sea breeze, thinking about future development plans.

The days of peace are coming to an end, and after the economic crisis, the clouds of war will soon reign again over Europe.

After so many years of hard work, Germany's war preparations have become more and more perfect, and the development progress of the navy, army, and air force has greatly surpassed that of the previous Germany.

But Leon still doesn't know if he will be able to win in the future, and no one knows what the future holds.

"What are you thinking?" A soft voice sounded behind Leon, "I see you have a sad face. ”

Hearing this, Leon smiled lightly, turned around the waist of the person behind him, "I'm thinking about our future, I'm thinking about the future of Germany." ”

"Leon, what is there to worry about our future?" Sophia, who was hugged by Lyon, looked at Lyon seriously, "As for the future of Germany, there is no need to worry, now that Germany is developing rapidly and steadily, even the terrible economic crisis has not affected us, can the future be worse than now?" ”

"You don't understand, Sophia." Leon smiled, "Now the relations between European countries do not want to be so calm on the surface, all countries are secretly preparing to redistribute benefits, the difference is only in the use of force or peace. ”

"What about you?" Sophia asked, "What about Germany?" Was Germany intended to use force or to make peace? ”

"We?" Leon looked at the high barrel of the Admiral Scheer's main gun not far away, and said lightly, "We can only pass the war!" ”

"Can't you not start a war?" Sophia hesitated and said, "I don't want you to be branded an aggressor." ”

"We have no way to peacefully resolve the contradictions between us and other countries, and the only way to change this is to use force." Leon touched Sophia's head, "But I'll find a good reason to start a war, the name invader is a bit ugly." ”

"Führer! We are about to arrive at the intended location, the destroyer Z17 is already waiting, they will send you to the heavy cruiser Hipper, and the high seas fleet will not be able to accompany you on the rest of the journey. The commander of the High Seas Fleet, Raeder, came up to the two of them, saluted Leon, and then said.

"Okay." Leon straightened his suit, then joked to Raeder with a smile: "Then you guys will train in the North Sea, and I will take the Hipper to meet the home fleet of the British Royal Navy!" ”
