86 Each has his own afflictions

In fact, at this time, the German state was very rich, because after the defeat of this war, France had to pay a large amount of money to Germany. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Moreover, France had to provide military expenses for the German garrisons in the German occupation zone, which was also a large amount of money.

This is also the reason why France has not been willing to join forces with the Germans until now: although the British are not righteous, the German side does not seem to be a good person.

France had to repay over the years more than 10 billion francs in war reparations, a large part of which was used to pay its original debts.

The remaining part was also used to purchase military supplies, and there was no spare money for Li Le to squander.

Because Li Le was two days late, the treaty of French surrender had already been signed, and he had no ability to interfere with such a contract that had already been finalized.

The seeds of hatred between France and Germany had been planted, and it was too late to talk about friends, so that France could only be tied to their chariot with the might of a great victory.

This also has the advantage of not having to negotiate any terms with the French, because France is not an equal ally in terms of status.

"How much money is left of the reparations of the French that has not been paid in advance?" Li Le raised his head and asked his economic officials.

He really wanted to release that economic genius Shacht from prison now, but now Shacht is no longer the same person as him.

It is obviously more dangerous and beyond control to use a stupid subordinate and to use a smart person with evil intentions.

In the financial field, Li Leke has no ability, if Schacht plays any careful thinking, he can't even supervise or predict danger, so at this time he can only use these mediocre talents in front of him.

"My Führer, we have about 20 million francs left in our hands, although it seems like a lot...... But when used in the general direction, it doesn't seem to be much. A leading official opened his mouth to answer Li Le's words.

Li Le also knew that although this money could allow the navy to start building some transport ships, but after spending all of this, he could really say that he was bankrupt.

"Since the army and Italy are idle, I have to find a way to find something for these idle troops!" Li Le looked at his economic officials and said to himself in his heart.

He is now like a leader who has scattered all his wealth to become a bandit, he has co-opted his men and recruited troops, and now he has no money, only a cottage and a subordinate who are obedient.

At this time, it is to go down the mountain to rob, this way.

"This matter is here first, I need you to stabilize the economy as much as possible and continue the projects that have been rolled out! This cannot be shaken, understand what I said? Li Le instructed them.

All the people raised their right hands and saluted Li Le: "Obey!" My Führer! ”

When the men had left, and Bowman walked in with a group of waiters carrying a plate of lush vegetables, Li Le remembered that he should have lunch.

"Führer! Your lunch! Although Li Le looked at these plates of vegetables and potatoes with some despair, Bowman didn't know about it.

After waiting for these attendants to leave, he stood beside Li Le and said: "My Führer, we attacked the bombing of London the next day, and the British did not send fighters to intercept it either!" ”

Germany's strategy of bombing London to lure the British Air Force into battle seems to have been seen through by the other side, and in this case, Li Le has no good way to save the Luftwaffe, which has now lost its offensive target.

"It is not possible to draw such conclusions now, let's bomb for two more days and see what the British really think!" When Li Le had no choice, he had no choice but to continue his tactics of luring the enemy.

"I see, I'll go and inform Marshal Goering, and Marshal Kesselring." Bowman spoke.

Li Le absentmindedly used his fork to deal with the battered potatoes in front of him, and nodded and said, "Very good!" If we want to destroy the air force of the British, we have to find a way to trick them out! ”

……

Just when Li Le and Bowman were both depressed about the British Air Force not being fooled, in the air force headquarters in London, Churchill was staring at Hugh angrily? General Dowding.

He gritted his teeth, lowered his voice in hatred, and questioned Dowding, "As the commander of the British Royal Air Force, you actually watched your capital be destroyed by the enemy?" ”

Two days of bombing have already brought devastating disaster to London. Because the British Air Force refused to fight, the Germans were able to use more accurate bombing than ever before to take out their chosen targets.

These targets were not chosen at will, as London, unlike other capitals, is home to a myriad of important factories and facilities.

German bombs bombed large residential areas, but more bombs fell on the roofs of factories.

The loss of production capacity in the past two days is not small at all, and it has even reached the point where Churchill and even His Majesty the King are a little desperate.

"Mr. Prime Minister, I don't think we can change our strategy at this time! We have to conserve our strength and hold out until the Luftwaffe is demoralized and the attacks are dispersed, and then launch a counterattack! Dowding answered Churchill's low growl.

The office is still very bright because the sun is shining outside the window. However, this sunny weather is not a good weather for the British Air Force.

They crave a long period of bad weather to give them a chance to breathe and redeploy.

"The secret radar station, which only I know, is being repaired and is expected to be operational in a month...... Because of the need to ensure absolute confidentiality, there are not many construction personnel, which is already the fastest speed. Churchill was still angry, and he continued to report on his recent work.

Churchill stretched out his hand, pressed it on the table, and interrupted his report: "The fighter unit must interfere with the bombing of German aircraft, and this is the task that the Air Force must complete. If you don't carry out the order again, I'll change people! ”

Now Churchill has no choice, he was elected Prime Minister of Britain in a state of war, and he faced many problems of one kind or another.

During his tenure, the Germans sank British battleships, defeated the British expeditionary force, and now even the Mediterranean Sea is divided in two by the enemy.

In the face of such a terrible situation, he must have an exciting victory, or he must have the courage to continue to let his compatriots in the motherland continue to persevere.

And this kind of courage is not reshaped by passive war avoidance. His army is now demoralized to the bottom, and his air force is cowering in front of the Germans!

"Mr. Prime Minister! The Air Force has returned the number of fighters to the level of 600 aircraft, and we are already preparing for a counterattack as best we can! "Dow Ding is also suffering and unspeakably depressed now.

After all, the 13th Air Group, which was originally a strategic reserve, has been transferred to the southeast.

The 11th Air Group, which was originally stationed in the southeast of Britain, is still reorganizing its own units and is not yet capable of fighting.

Dowding was now really tempted to grab Churchill by the collar and ask him who had caused his deployment to be like this.

When Churchill heard Dowding talk about the number of his planes as many as 600, he could no longer hold his breath: "The Air Force has hundreds of planes, but it can't even take off 200 planes to intercept the Germans?" ”

The Prime Minister slapped the table and commanded Dowding: "Tomorrow! If the Germans continue to attack London, you must send out fighter jets and fight the Germans in a decisive battle! ”

Historically, when the German air raids on London, the British fighter force also carried out the most stubborn interception. The two sides engaged in spectacular aerial battles over England, so Churchill now ordered Dowding to launch a counterattack, but it was not a good idea.

The only variable is that the current radar early warning system in the UK no longer exists, so the British Air Force is currently unable to target the purposeful interception of the Luftwaffe.

But Churchill, who was not a technician or an Air Force commander, did not understand how passive Dowding's Air Force was now.

But as the prime minister, he knows that the king and countless officials are already very dissatisfied with him, and he has to create a respite for himself at this time.

"Do you know how much pressure I have to deal with? If you don't think you can secure British airspace, you should be able to keep the skies over London relatively safe, right? Churchill asked, looking into the other's eyes.

"......" Dowding also knew that Churchill was under a lot of pressure, because he felt the same pressure. So he had no way to answer Churchill's words, and no way to refuse this request.

"How about one more day, and if it is certain that the Germans are not luring us into battle, but are really preparing to destroy London, then I will order the fighters to fight?" Dowding eventually relented and came up with a plan that he thought was safer.

Churchill looked into Dowding's eyes, and after a long time, he nodded and said to Dowding: "I trust your ability, and I know that the Air Force is under a lot of pressure. But if you keep moving, it's really easy to get suspicious of the gossip. ”

As the Germans bombed London, and General Dowding commanded the air force to avoid fighting, some gossip followed.

There are people who say everything behind their backs, and some people are even nervous by the German spy who can't find it, and Daoding is actually the biggest spy hidden in Britain.

It was precisely because of this statement that Churchill finally couldn't sit still and rushed over to force Dowding to let the Air Force fighter unit enter the war as soon as possible.
