When Manstein heard this, he immediately understood what Hitler meant...... He was not stupid, and of course he knew what Hitler meant by "using it as quickly as possible" and "no matter how much money and manpower is invested".

To put it simply, Hitler still did not give up the idea of attacking the Soviet Union, and it can even be said that he was still working in this direction.

Sure enough, after returning to the headquarters, Hitler said thoughtfully: "We have all seen that there are indeed some problems with the 'Tiger style', but we also see the good side of it." As long as we solve its problems, yes, solve those problems of motivation and transmission, then it is still possible for us to attack and ultimately win! ”

"Yes, Your Excellency Yuan!" Marshal Kruger seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "I firmly believe this, after all, the 'Tiger' is a new tank, and every new tank will always have some unexpected situations......"

"That's not a reason for it to be in trouble, my marshal!" Hitler said: "Because there is no reason to talk about war, it is directly related to the fate of Kursk, and even the fate of the Eastern Front, the fate of Germany!" ”

Hitler saw this very accurately, and Kursk was indeed a fateful battle, even for the Soviet Union.

This may not be the case with the Soviet Union in history, because even if the Soviet Union loses the battle at Kursk, they can still reorganize a powerful force in a short time, after all, the industrial capacity is there, a thousand T34s per month, and an armored force with 5,000 tanks in five months.

But......

The current USSR is not the same as the USSR in history.

In the Soviet Union at this time, the Baku oil field fell into the hands of the German army, and even if its industrial capacity was still there, the equipment was still there, but these equipment would soon be unable to operate due to lack of oil.

At the same time, even if so many tanks were produced, it would be in vain, because they simply did not have that much oil.

The reason why the current Soviet Union can still organize so many tanks and so many planes is that it has consumed all their fuel reserves, plus the assistance of the United States and Britain, hoping to regain the Baku oil field and solve the oil crisis.

Thinking of this, Qin Chuan said: "Your Excellency, maybe you are right, Marshal Kruger is also right, if we attack, we are likely to defeat the enemy and win!" ”

Hearing this, Manstein couldn't help but look at Qin Chuan in shock, he didn't understand how Qin Chuan could say such a thing.

"Very well, Lieutenant Colonel!" Hitler's face became a little better: "You gave me confidence, and that's important!" ”

"I just don't understand why we're doing this, Lord Yuan!"

"What don't you understand?" Hitler said: "We need victory, don't we?" ”

"Of course, we need to win!" Qin Chuan replied: "We can also achieve victory by doing this, but such a victory must be partial!" ”

"Local?" Hitler asked rhetorically: "What do you mean...... We will still be held back by the Soviets? No, no, as long as Tiger solves its problems, nothing can stop us! ”

"You're right, Your Excellency!" Qin Chuan said: "It is true that nothing can resist the footsteps of the 'tiger style', but will the Americans and the British let us defeat the Soviet Union?" ”

Manstein reacted when he heard this, and he nodded: "The lieutenant colonel is right, the Americans and the British are actively preparing for war in Britain, perhaps they may still be in a wait-and-see attitude now, considering whether to intervene in this war." If we attack Kursk and win, or even again against Moscow...... It will force the Americans and Britain to attack! ”

Hitler was stunned for a moment, then immediately got up from his chair and walked to the map.

"So!" Qin Chuan said: "It's not that there is nothing that can stop the 'tiger' attack, it's not that the 'tiger' can't defeat the Soviet Union, but are we ready in France?" Is it possible to stop the planes, warships, and batches of tanks of the Americans and British? If not, we risk losing France to the Kursk counteroffensive! ”

"Wouldn't the Americans have attacked France if we had not counterattacked?" Marshal Kruger, of course, disagreed with Qin Chuan's statement.

"You are right, Your Excellency!" Qin Chuan replied: "Even if we don't counterattack, the Americans will still attack France." But not now......"

"Yes!" "We all know that the Americans and the British have always taken a wait-and-see approach, and they want us to lose both with the USSR," Manstein said. Under these circumstances, if we are too strong on the battlefield, or if we achieve more victories, the United States and Britain must not intervene. If, on the other hand, we are on the defensive, and it is the Soviets who are attacking us, and even the Soviet army is still superior on the surface, then the Americans and the British will continue to wait and see, which means that we have more time to prepare on the Western Front! ”

This hit the nail on the head of Hitler, and the importance of France goes without saying.

France is basically complete with industry, basically free manpower...... All of this created countless armaments and supplies for Germany, not to mention the formation of French troops and a daily "protection fee" of 400 million francs.

Therefore, the war on the French side can be delayed by one day, and from this point of view, there is no reason for Germany to launch a counteroffensive on the Eastern Front.

"What's more......" Qin Chuan added: "What I don't understand the most is that we can wait for victory like this, why should we rush to make trouble for ourselves for a while?" ”

"Waiting for victory?" Hitler looked at Qin Chuan in bewilderment.

"Yes, Your Excellency Yuan!" Qin Chuan said: "Maybe you have forgotten why Germany has not been able to increase production before! ”

"Because of the lack of oil!" Hitler replied: "But now we have no shortage of oil, we have found oil in Africa, and the Baku oil fields belong to us!" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency Yuan!" Qin Chuan said: "The Baku oil field originally belonged to the Soviet Union, but now it belongs to us, and it used to account for 71.5% of the Soviet Union's energy, which means ...... It will be the USSR that is short of oil! ”

"Yes, the lieutenant colonel is right!" Manstein said: "Your Excellency, the Soviet Union is short of oil, which will definitely affect their production capacity, and all we have to do now is to wait for this time to come......"

"Perhaps not at this time, Marshal Manstein!" Kruger objected: "The Americans have increased their aid to the Soviet Union, and this includes oil!" ”

"No, it will!" Hitler nodded and said: "Because the Americans are also preparing for their own war!" ”
