You must know that the formation of night fighters has actually begun within the Luftwaffe, but because of the lack of attention to the radar system and the impact of the victory in front of them, the formation process is not so fast. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was not until a few months later that the German night fighter units began to form combat effectiveness and played their part in the war.

Li Le knew that in the soon unfolding air battle of Britain, Germany and Britain would bomb each other's capitals intentionally or unintentionally, and in this retaliatory bombing attack, night bombing was a very important component.

If there is a defense of night fighters, then Germany will not suffer the loss of being bombed because of its technological inferiority, at least in future air battles.

Another reason is that the Germans have always been backward in radar technology, and Li Le hopes that through investment, he can change the sad fact that radar is backward -- this technology is too powerful, so powerful that it is impossible to understand it.

"I don't need you to do anything for the time being, just set aside a sum of money to prepare for the purchase of new fighters, and tomorrow I will hold a meeting on Air Force technology, if you are interested, you can participate." Obviously, Li Leke was reluctant to say anything more to an air force gate lord like Goering.

His conversation on the train today was just to ask Goering to reveal some information in advance. Because in Li Le's plan, there are too many things to move about the Air Force.

Let's not mention anything else, let's just say that because of the competition between the air force and the navy, the only German aircraft carrier Zeppelin, which was not built until the end, is a big waste in Li Le's opinion.

In the same way, the desperate mass production of the ME-110 before 1942, the day twin-engine fighter, in addition to wasting resources, the only benefit is to give the 1944 reserve night fighter such a humiliating role.

Coupled with the ME-109 fighter, which obviously lacked room for performance improvement, the Luftwaffe in 1940, after a series of great victories, showed its outdated and backward tail in the Battle of Britain, which just made the British see through it.

As for the selective differences between the "tactical air force" and the "strategic air force" that are very interesting to laymen, Li Le is very disdainful -- there are so many resources, if they are used to build long-range strategic bombers, what can they use to build fighters?

"My Führer, I will hurry up and arrange the matter of forming a night fighter, and as for the purchase of new fighters, I think it will be discussed again?" Goering hesitated for a moment, then replied.

The procurement of fighter jets is a very complex and big issue, and Messersmitt is a big consumer of the Luftwaffe, and if the new fighter jets are purchased rashly, whether it will affect other customers is a question that needs to be considered.

In addition, there is another aspect, which is the capacity of aircraft production. There are so many production resources such as materials, and adding one more product will inevitably reduce the production of other products.

Another personal reason was Göring's reluctance to allow the Führer to intervene in the internal affairs of the Air Force. In his opinion, the Führer was a layman, a layman who did not understand the construction of the Air Force at all.

So when it comes to the purchase of new fighter jets, Goering is very resistant. He is a well-known boss in the Air Force, and naturally he does not want others to point fingers at him.

"The production capacity of DB engines has not been able to keep up, and the number of engines needed for the ME-109 fighter and the ME-110 fighter has not been able to keep up, so don't we want to think of a way?" Li Le asked rhetorically with an expression of "do you see if I'm an idiot" on his face.

Belch? When Goering heard this, he suddenly realized that the Führer had never known much about the affairs of the Air Force, even if it was a fighter model, that is, he knew a rough idea.

However, when the Führer was able to familiarly mention the model of the fighter and say the name of the aircraft engine, this strange feeling made Goering look at Li Le twice.

It's like a kid who only knows math problems in the first grade of elementary school, and suddenly his mouth is full of parabolic equations from high school. What Li Le said now made Goering feel that his previous outlook on life and values had been subverted, completely subverted.

It seems that the Führer still has a very deep understanding of the affairs of the Air Force, and he still has his own unique opinions.

At least, the Air Force has recently had a headache because of the engine production capacity, and then diverted its attention, and the Fuhrer has a certain understanding of the purchase of FW-190 fighters.

Goering thought of this and said to Li Le: "My Führer, you are talking about the purchase of FW-190 fighters...... I thought you were going to buy some other new fighter jets. ”

In fact, Goering had seen the FW-190 fighter for a long time, and it was in January 1940. He heard Li Le say that he wanted to purchase a new fighter, and he didn't think about it for a while, but when he heard about the engine, he immediately understood.

The FW-190 fighter uses a star-shaped air-cooled engine, which is different from the DB liquid-cooled engine used in the ME-109 fighter. It can be said that apart from the raw materials produced, the two aircraft use completely different production lines.

For Germany, which has been stretched thin, the two aircraft are simply a perfect match, and Goering also likes the kind of aircraft with a thick nose but very good performance, and has ordered the purchase of 40 aircraft.

So when Li Le talked about the production capacity of aircraft engines, he immediately thought of the FW-190 fighter, which he also loved.

Li Le nodded, at least for now, it seems that Goering is still qualified to serve as the marshal of the Third Reich Air Force. At least he cares about his plane, not being an addict.

"Yes, I'm going to ramp up production of FW-190 fighters." Li Le nodded, and then said, "In August, I need at least 150 of these planes!" ”

"150?" Hearing the Führer say this, Goering was so frightened that he almost cried out. You must know that the ME-190 fighter, which is the main force of the Luftwaffe, is not produced in sufficient quantities today.

This is to raise the FW-190, a backup aircraft, to the level of the main fighter. Goering glanced at Li Le, and finally decided to agree to this decision.

The first is that he still likes the FW-190 fighter very much, and while not reducing the number of original fighters, increasing the production of another aircraft is also expanding his air force.

The second is that the Führer had a habit of interfering in the production of weapons from an early age, and Hitler always considered himself a technical genius, and he intervened in the production of almost every weapon in order to show his erudition and wisdom.

In the light of these two circumstances, there was no reason for Goering to disturb the Führer's self-amusement – throughout the Third Reich, the exploitation of the Führer's wisdom and stupidity was the leitmotif of his men.

"Well, my Führer, since you insist on increasing the production of FW-190 fighters, I will inform my men to find a way to complete it." Goering nodded in agreement with Li Le's plan, and secretly rejoiced in it.

In this way, more money will be allocated to the Air Force, and more power will be given to him. For a man who is greedy for power, such an outcome is something he would like to see.

"One more thing, Goering!" Li Leke didn't start this conversation to appease Goering, he gave Goering sweet dates, and naturally he had to pick up the stick and whip the other party.

Regarding the matter of the FW-190 fighter, of course Li Le knew that it was a very easy thing to do, this kind of good thing that no one's plate was moved, but a dish was added for everyone to share, and it would be stupid if someone refused.

What he had to do next was what made Goering uncomfortable. Moreover, it is closely related to Goering's interests, and it can even be said that it directly shakes Goering's bottom line.

"Led Zeppelin, you have to hand it over." Li Le was not in a hurry, and directly threw out a news that shocked Goering.

"What?" Goering really shouted in question, and he stared at Li Le with annoyance in his eyes, as if he wanted to see if the other party was really the Führer.

For Goering, the Reich's air force, whether strong or weak, was a confinement that he could not touch. This is his bottom line, a forbidden area that no one can touch.

In the opinion of Imperial Air Marshal Goering, in the sky ruled by the Empire, as long as it is a flying machine, it should be under the jurisdiction of him, the commander-in-chief of the air force. Including the facilities and personnel that serve these aircraft, it is the same.

Obviously, these facilities include airfields, including reserve facilities dedicated to aviation fuel, and of course aircraft carriers parked with aircraft.

Now, how could Goering, the Führer, who had once pampered him to the point of no return, ask him to hand over that beloved toy?

"It can't be! Monarch! We had an agreement that the aircraft carrier should be under my command! All the planes of the Empire should be under my command! Goering shouted at Li Le like thunder, without the slightest intention of backing down.

Of course, Li Le also knew that doing this would indeed make Goering furious. But he had no other way, and if he didn't dispose of the abandoned aircraft carrier Zeppelin now, it would be no different from scrap metal.

Leaving an 80 percent complete aircraft carrier in the harbor as scrap metal? Germany is not that rich, or the German navy is not that rich.

At present, Li Le must seize all the resources that can be used and all the forces that must be fought for as hard as possible to fight the war and fight in the direction that is most beneficial to Germany.
