Chapter 202 Air Defense Early Warning Network

The tanks and warships I gave you, after you finished the war, I don't want you depreciation, you just give it back to me, if it is destroyed, it can't come out, okay, buy it at the original price, pay for it. The "Lend-Lease Act" in the United States is the current mortgage on the house, and the British are waiting to be the "house slave" of the United States for the rest of their lives. If the "house slave" fails to repay the debt, the "world police" (the United States) will come to the door in the morning, and the "house slave" of Britain may be blown up chrysanthemums.

Consider a 2006 story in which the British government recently announced that it would pay off the last of its massive post-World War II debt to the United States, $346 million, by 2006. Britain will finally pay off its debt to the United States, so that "the long-standing shadow on the pound and the British economic position is finally about to be dispelled". Britain has been paying off its debt to the United States for 61 years, is there anything more deceitful than this?

According to the Sunday Times, in World War II, when the British government needed a huge new loan, it borrowed and lent $80 billion to the United States. The terms of the loan stipulate that the British pound must be freely convertible. Some British historians and economists say that this led to a long period of weakness in the pound, and Britain began to be the second largest in the United States.

Historically, the United States has provided more than $100 billion in supplies to dozens of countries in Britain, the Soviet Union, France, and China, and Britain was the first to receive the most aid and "mortgage loans." By August 31, 1945, on the eve of Japan's surrender, the British Commonwealth had received $80 billion in lend-lease "mortgage loans", accounting for 60% of the total Lend-Lease expenditures of the United States, of which the United Kingdom had the largest "mortgage cash loans" of $47 billion. The U.S. "mortgage loan" to the Soviet Union came into effect on October 1, 1941, after excluding opposition from domestic isolationist forces. By September 20, 1945, the total value of supplies actually delivered by the United States to the Soviet Union was $30.2 billion, plus other expenses, totaling $30.9 billion ($29.8 billion in Soviet statistics).

Of course, it is also full of risks for the United States to lend weapons to these countries, once these countries are defeated in the war, the countries are all destroyed by Germany, and the presidents and prime ministers who borrow American money, even if they are not in German prisoner of war camps, are also exiles, and if they do not give a dime to the United States, the United States will lose all their money, and this "Lend-Lease Act" is actually a prelude to the United States entering the war. The United States must also enter the war in order not to let the country that borrowed its money be destroyed by Germany.

In 1940, 1 gram of gold was only 1 US dollar, 100 billion US dollars is a huge amount of wealth, for the sake of this amount of wealth, those capitalists in the United States will also urge the United States to enter the war, do not underestimate the energy of those capitalists, the president is their intended spokesperson, capitalists in order to chase profits, there is nothing that cannot be done. Lenin was quite right when he said that "in order to make money, the capitalists are willing to sell the rope on which they hanged themselves".

When Zhang Jun received the telegram from the United States, he did ponder for a long time, and he prepared the "Barbarossa" plan in advance, and other related historical events followed, from this "Lend-Lease Act" Zhang Jun had already smelled the smell of danger, Zhang Jun clearly remembered that the "Lend-Lease Act" was the prelude to the United States entering the war, and the United States would enter the war in the last little more than a year.

What to do? What to do? Zhang Jun has been asking himself, since it is necessary for the United States to enter the war, the EU has basically pressed 80 percent of its elite troops to the Soviet Union, if the EU countries and the Soviet Union are fighting a fierce war in the vicinity of Moscow, or when the confrontation is in the harsh winter, Britain, France and the United States suddenly attack Germany or EU member states, the consequences will be extremely serious, as long as the Yankees use the B-29 on a large scale, a super weapon of destruction, against Germany's industrial facilities, wantonly and indiscriminately, Germany will also be completely turned into ruins.

Now it is impossible for Zhang Jun not to terminate the "Barbarossa" plan, because Hitler approved it, and he has mobilized all the forces that can be mobilized, although Zhang Jun is anxious, it does not mean that Zhang Jun has no choice.

Fortunately, the German scientific researchers are really powerful, the radar miniaturization work was completed in 39 years, one is a long-range airborne early warning radar weighing ten tons, just can be installed on the B-29, now Germany is fully refitting the B-29, has been modified more than ten, and the rate of two or three per month increases, early warning aircraft Germany has, but the precious B-29 strategic bomber has been misappropriated, and the air tanker is almost forty or so, early warning aircraft are increasing to fifty, Germany has only 210 B-29s.

In response to the latest situation, Zhang Jun hurriedly gave an order to the Messerschmitt company, asking them to speed up the production of B-29 accessories, and at the same time began to secretly assemble the B-29, at this time Germany's aircraft production task is very heavy, and the order cannot be produced at all, Messerschmitt told Zhang Jun the truth, all the companies in Germany combined, can produce about 50-80 B-29 a year, because they have other aircraft production tasks, and now they have 120 aircraft accessories, which can assemble twenty B-29s per month, this is still in the case of three shifts, there is no possibility of continuing to speed up.

Zhang Jun fully understood Messerschmidt's difficulties, and just told them to coordinate the production of several aircraft, B-29 can produce 60 aircraft per year, even if the task is completed, the spare parts of the 20 are used for maintenance, so that Germany can barely maintain the scale of 300 B-29 strategic bombers, which is basically enough.

With early warning aircraft and ground radar stations, it is possible to prevent Britain, France, and the United States from attacking in the air, and now that it is difficult to ride a tiger, Zhang Jun has also let himself go, since Hitler dares to gamble with the future and fate of the entire country, is he not a person who dares to cross, then isn't it too sorry to cross the two words, since it is gambling with his life, it is still necessary to make more preparations, the first step is to establish a perfect air defense early warning network, and the second step is to deploy a large number of troops and Jian-6 fighters on the German-French border.

As long as Britain, France, and the United States dared to send planes to bomb the industrial areas of Germany, they would have to let their bombers come and go. If Germany's industrial areas were bombed into ruins, even if Zhang Jun had the SS, he would not be able to save Germany, and fight with Britain, France, the United States and the Soviet Union? When Germany loses most of its industrial facilities, it is looking for death, even if it is intact industrial facilities, Germany is still looking for death, Germany must take the Soviet Union in one fell swoop, obtain the vast mineral resources of the Soviet Union, and prevent the emergence of large-scale resistance in the Soviet Union as much as possible, this perfect situation, Germany can survive, otherwise wait for the Nuremberg gallows.

For the establishment of a complete aviation network, it is not within the scope of Zhang Jun's authority, but Kessellin, who has a good relationship with Zhang Jun, can help a lot, how many ground radars and how many early warning aircraft are needed, and all that Zhang Jun can take out can be given to Kesselring, Zhang Jun is not stingy.

In the afternoon of the same day, Marshal Kesselring was found, and the two fought side by side several times, although the Wehrmacht and the SS did not deal with each other, but this did not affect the relationship between the two, it can be said that Kesselring and Zhang Jun belong to the feeling of heroes cherishing heroes.

"Marshal Kesselring, I took the liberty of coming to you today, hoping it wouldn't disturb you."

"Haha, you, the head of the equipment department, also have time to come to me, it's really a rare guest, come and I'll invite you to drink Nanshan coffee."

"Very honored"

After the two of them sat down in Kesselring's office, they drank Nanshan coffee and talked about business:

"General Kesselring, I have come to you today to discuss a major matter concerning the future and destiny of Germany."

"Oh, what really matters?"

"Of course, my friend, I would like to ask you to immediately improve our air defense early warning network in Germany, I can give you as much as you need for ground radar, and I can also give you ten B-29 airborne early warning aircraft, this B-29 early warning aircraft is our latest secret weapon, his high-altitude detection range reaches 120 kilometers, the medium altitude reaches 100 kilometers, the altitude is more than 1,500 meters, the detection distance reaches 62 kilometers, and the flight altitude below 500 meters is no way to clear the clutter on the ground. With these 10 B-29 AWACS aircraft that have been cruising for more than a dozen hours and flying at an altitude of more than 10,000 meters, I think you should be able to ensure the safety of our German mainland. ”

"Great, with this thing, we can build a three-dimensional air defense early warning network, any plane that dares to intrude into German airspace, uncle, I will order it to be beaten down, I promise to do what you request, I said brother, why do you suddenly care so much about our air force's radar warning, could it be some premeditation, tell me brother."

Kesselring is funny, if Zhang Jun really has any premeditation, he will also tell him, I have a conspiracy in this matter, brother, be careful, of course, Zhang Jun has no conspiracy, that is, to prevent Britain, France and the United States from suddenly attacking Germany when Germany and the Soviet Union are fighting to the death.

Of course, Zhang Jun is not good at analyzing the "Lend-Lease Act" of the United States to Kesselring now, which is a prelude to the United States' entry into the war, of course, Zhang Jun still explained a few sentences in order to eliminate Kesselring's doubts:

"My brother, how can I have any conspiracy, you know that, the Anglo-French army has hoarded 1.1 million troops and more than 3,000 planes on the Maginot Line, do you think we should prevent these two rogue countries from stabbing us in the back?"

"Of course, of course, these two world hooligans should be prevented from sneaking up on us, brother, don't worry, this is a matter within our Air Force, and we will not let you down."

"Your brother is doing things, I don't worry. Then how many six masters do you plan to keep on our German soil, I suggest that there should be no less than 500 planes, you know, now Britain and France have begun to lend arms in the United States, that is to say, they are about to have strategic bombers like B-29. ”

"Ahh Kesselring was taken aback, paused, and then continued:

"My brother, are the sources reliable?"

"Absolutely reliable, you'll be able to read the Lend-Lease Act in the newspapers in a few days."

As a field marshal of the Air Force, Kesselring certainly knew the power of the B-29 and its strategic strike capability, and a hundred of them could blow up the Ruhr industrial area in Germany to the ground.

"I understand, for this latest situation, I will set up an emergency team to deal with this latest threat, I will handle it, your brother rest assured! Absolutely will not let the Anglo-French B-29 planes fly over our heads. ”

Zhang Jun suggested that Kesselring leave 500 planes of the Sixth Master to deal with the B-29 that Britain and France were about to have, the B-29 can fly 10,500 meters high, and the "Sixth Master" can also fly 12,000 meters! There is still not much difficulty for the "Sixth Master" to hit the B-29, no matter how many barrels the B-29 has, the "Sixth Master" has a speed advantage and can attack the B-29 from any angle, and the huge body of the B-29 can only be passively beaten.

……

Zhang Jun solved his worries and did not stay in Berlin, but handed over the small things to the new deputy minister of the German Ministry of Armament, Lieutenant General Modell, for this Lieutenant General Modell Zhang Jun is a hundred at ease, but ...... (To be continued.) )
