957 decline

The sound of the camera was densely heard, and the sound of the military band was still there. Li Le waved at the crowd outside the train station waving his arms, causing a burst of cheers.

He squeezed out a smile and, amid the silence of all the German executives, slowly stepped into his car and waved to Speer.

"Can we launch fewer submarines this month?" After Li Le sat in his car, Speer also got into his car.

The car was not Hitler's favorite convertible, but a sealed Mercedes with a roof.

This ensures privacy and safety – the performance of Mercedes-Benz bulletproof cars is really comparable to the tanks of this era.

What's more, Li Le knew about Reinhardt Heydrich's action of the apes, so he was very careful about his own safety, and he also took care to keep his subordinates safe.

After all, if you are accidentally plotted, it is the real gain that outweighs the loss. As for the opportunity to get in touch with the people, Li Le thinks it is better to wait until after victory.

Unlike the Führer who has really been on the battlefield and is a little neurotic, Li Le, a traverser, is actually very life-sparing and is a "fake Führer" who is very afraid of death.

And now, the false Führer felt that since the war between Germany and the United States had been transferred to the productive forces, the key to solving the problem was also in the productive forces.

Fortunately, in the future, there will be such an old man who puts forward a truth that everyone knows well, but no one has summed up: science and technology are the primary productive forces.

Despite the difficulties in integrating European industrial capacity, and despite the fact that Germany had to continue fighting in a war-torn Europe, Germany was already on the fast track at the technological level.

Although the Americans may produce a large number of P-51 Mustang fighters, Germany is already beginning to equip the Raven jet fighters.

Although the Americans are building a large number of aircraft carriers and escort ships, Germany is also building a strong navy of its own.

As long as the generation advantage is formed, then the numerical advantage can be curbed to a large extent, and then the locust legion produced by the United States will not be able to threaten the eagle produced by Germany.

For example, radar technology, for example, electronic technology, for example, jet engine technology, for example, precision machining technology......

In World War II, Germany always hoped to crush its opponents at the technical level through its advantages in industrial precision machining.

It's a pity that the Tiger and King Tiger tanks, despite their strong performance, are not able to essentially crush their own enemies.

In fact, even in the 21st century, the U.S. Army's weaponry has not been able to technically crush its opponents.

However, in the field of higher technological level, in the field of the Navy and the Air Force, as long as there is a technological generation gap, it is possible to form a terrible overwhelming advantage.

As long as Germany firmly grasps the two lines of radar and jet engines, it will be able to maintain its advantage until 1970.

Similarly, as long as the navy is willing to invest in missiles, it is actually very easy for the German Führer Li Le, who has long been guided by the Styx missile, to take the lead in realizing the mode change of naval warfare.

As for the Army, Li Le, the fake Führer, thought very clearly, he did not intend to consume the Army with the United States at all, as long as he built the Atlantic Ocean into a strong defense line, the United States could only watch everything develop from the other side.

With a bitter look on his face, Speer replied: "My Führer, the production level of the Navy has been reduced to the lowest in recent months...... Only 2 submarines were launched, and the warships in the other dockyards are now in half-operational condition. ”

Because the army's advance was too smooth, the German side had already slowed down the construction of its own five aircraft carriers.

The newest aircraft carrier USS Ludwider is actually seventy percent complete, but there is still a long way to go before it is launched.

After the Danube aircraft carrier was launched into active service, the speed of the modified aircraft carrier, which was built in a hurry, also slowed down.

Ninety percent of the conversion work on the aircraft carrier Europa has been completed, but the workers have been transferred to speed up the construction of the aircraft carrier Hindenburg.

But even the Hindenburg-class aircraft carrier, a key project of the German Navy, was not being built quickly.

The launch of the first aircraft carrier, the Hindenburg, had been pushed to the end of 1942, which was obviously not fast.

Therefore, in fact, in the next six months, the German Navy will have to rely on the existing weapons and equipment to maintain the situation.

Fortunately, their number one enemy, the British Navy, has been killed, otherwise they would probably have relied on a few submarines to show their presence as in history.

The half-started state that Speer said here is actually a very face-saving statement. The reality is that the Navy has recently barely started building anything, including new submarines.

The two submarines that were launched were both half-built unfinished submarines that had been built before. None of the Navy's most recent new submarines have been built, and there are no plans for a new torpedo boat.

In contrast, the German Army and Air Force were much busier. After all, the army and the air force are desperately fighting the Soviet army.

In June 1941, the German front-line troops were given 70,000 cars of various models – note that this was just cars, not tanks and armored vehicles.

Don't underestimate this number, in the real historical time and space, a country that can produce millions of cars is rare at this time. Very modestly - only the United States and Germany and the USSR 3.

As for Japan, a major automobile producer in later generations, automobile production at this moment is no different from that of elementary school students.

In real history, when Germany produced 240,000 cars a year, Japan produced a total of 120,000 cars in five years...... That's almost one-tenth of the total car production in Germany.

This is also the reason why the Japanese Army calls howitzers of about 100 mm caliber heavy artillery - they do not have many cars and cannot realize the mechanization of artillery, so the weight of artillery is greatly limited.

The more he insisted on the path he chose, the more Li Le felt the hardships of this road. He used his golden finger to bypass many detours, but found that the gap was still painfully large.

The United States is losing ground in the Pacific, but its strong industrial production capacity is still fearful.

On the contrary, despite Japan's unprecedented victory in the Pacific, its decline seems to be evident......
