Chapter Seventy-Three: Going to the West to Sweep Goods
And now, since Ciric has come to this era, of course he will not look at the Spitfire with strong power, so he took advantage of the current economic crisis to simply go to the United Kingdom to investigate and merge Rolls-Royce!
And for good reason, of course, after all, another translation of Rolls-Royce, called Rolls-Royce, also produces cars!
Under the current economic crisis, Rolls-Royce is also very difficult, at this time, in the name of civilian, the merger of Rolls-Royce, if the British agree, it is best, even if they do not agree, then there is nothing to lose. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In short, it's to mix!
The current Merlin engine is in the initial stage of development, and there are still many faults to be solved.
When the time comes, look what engine the Spitfire of the British uses!
At the same time, some of these departments should also be retained, such as the department that researches superchargers, the department that researches new materials!
In the latter part of World War II, the performance of German aircraft began to deteriorate, mainly because Germany did not have advanced high-altitude superchargers!
The air in the air is thin in the sky, and if you want to improve the efficiency of the internal combustion engine, you need to use a supercharger to increase the air intake, and when the first level is not enough, you need the second stage!
When the second stage is supercharged, it is already in the category of high temperature, and Germany has no way to develop high-temperature resistant materials, which leads to the inability to manufacture the second stage supercharger, so in the later stage, the performance of German fighters began to decline.
If it's just about fighters, then forget it, after all, in the later stage, Germany will start to make jets, and compared to propellers, jets are simply made for high altitudes!
When the time comes, the sky will be full of Me262, which will be the enemy's nightmare!
However, Germany still lacked a type of aircraft, a large bomber! Bombers of the B-29 class!
In World War II, Germany mainly used dive bombers on the front line, there were very few strategic bombers, and several projects all died in succession, but now, with the crossing of Ciric, of course, the role of strategic bombers is known.
Not to mention anything else, at least, when the nuclear bomb is developed, that huge shape and weight can only be carried by strategic bombers, right? And if you want to make a jet bomber, it is still far away, you must have an advanced piston engine!
Ciric felt that he was very suitable in this department now, and in the past few years, until the outbreak of World War II, he would make a series of preparations for the German war reserves!
Now, while the economic crisis in the West is not over, it is most appropriate to sweep goods from Western countries! In addition to going to the United Kingdom, Ciric also plans to go to the United States, which also has a lot of good things that Ciric is looking forward to.
Among them, the most important is the technology of synthetic rubber!
Synthetic rubber is a chemical method, artificial synthetic rubber, although this way is not as good as the quality of natural rubber, but for the lack of rubber in Germany, it also has to leave a backing.
Now, Ciric is also changing all that, reaching out to China, contacting the Soviet Union, and importing all kinds of resources, including rubber from Southeast Asia.
Now, start stockpiling strategic resources!
In fact, in history, Germany's synthetic rubber and coal-to-oil technologies were imported from the United States.
However, the current technology still cannot preserve natural rubber for a long time, so Ciric attaches great importance to the technology of synthetic rubber.
As for coal-to-oil technology, Ciric doesn't pay much attention to it right now. After going to the United States, if it's cheap, you can buy this technology, and if it's expensive, forget it.
In Germany back then, in addition to the population problem, it was a resource! Germany is short of oil! Even if there were oil fields in Romania and so on, there was still a lack of oil!
Therefore, Germany had to convert coal into oil, only into gasoline, and the label was not high.
Germany's coal-to-oil conversion can only have No. 87, and the United States' high-performance gasoline has long passed 100, so American fighters can use high-grade fuel, and they can also get on the two-stage supercharger, while Germany can't, in addition to heat-resistant materials, another problem is that in that case, low-grade fuel has long been deflagrated.
What Germany needs to develop is a navy, as long as the navy can hold the Mediterranean, and even, only long-range fighters, can hold the shipping routes of the Mediterranean, then from Libya, it can continuously transport oil!
If you want to win a war, you need to start planning in advance!
The accumulation of Cierrick's bits and pieces is all for winning the future war, step by step, and working hard.
However, before Ciric's second trip abroad began, he had to slow down.
This is because the situation in the country is tense, and the situation between the SA and the Wehrmacht is already like fire and water.
Just a month ago, with the expansion of the army, the army also had a new name, the Wehrmacht.
In 1921, after the defeat of Germany, the Weimar government was established, and at the same time, the army loyal to the German Kaiser was reorganized into an army in the service of the German state, then known as the German Wehrmacht, German: Reichswehr.
After Hitler became the president of Germany, Hitler finally tore up the Treaty of Versailles and began to expand the army, and at the same time, Hitler also changed a new name to the German army, the German Wehrmacht, German: Wehrmacht.
All this showed the importance that Hitler attached to the Wehrmacht, which made the leader of the SA, Rom, even more dissatisfied, and Hitler had a five-hour conversation with him alone.
The unruly Röhm quarreled fiercely with Hitler before reluctantly reaching an agreement.
For Hitler, it was his "last attempt" to reach an understanding with his closest friends.
At the same time, the matter about the SA even alarmed Hindenburg, who personally invited Hitler and issued an ultimatum to Hitler about the SA.
Although Hindenburg is already at home, Hindenburg is definitely in the army.
At this time, Hitler was surrounded by various "inverted" forces. From Hindenburg and the Wehrmacht, to the big capitalists and the big plutocrats, all put pressure on Hitler. Hitler gradually became a tiger rider.
Unfortunately, Röhm did not know that his death was approaching, and he fantasized about persecuting Hitler.
Rohm purchased large quantities of weapons from abroad and distributed them to the SA, and equipped a large special security unit with heavy machine guns.
