Sometimes we have to admire the persistent pursuit of science and technology by human beings, and this preference has become a major driving force for the progress of human civilization.

As the war progressed, there was an increasing need to develop optical sighting systems, and German optical equipment was far ahead of the rest of the world, so German engineers and technicians more than doubled their technology in just one year.

With the improvement of the quality of optical equipment, the photographic equipment used on German reconnaissance aircraft also became more accurate, and then according to various needs, some corresponding functions were also developed, perfected and developed. For example, color photography, which was prized before the Second World War, was slowly gaining popularity among middle-income people in Germany, and Accardo enjoyed the convenience it brought to his family earlier.

The level of finesse of the film and the technical techniques of processing were all developed in this time, and the German senior generals could even use higher-resolution, clearer, and color-differentiated photographs to analyze high-value targets in the enemy's strategic depth. Of course, because the technology wasn't as sophisticated as it is today, it was limited to high-value targets.

When Caesar lay quietly in his crib, he had already been left with countless precious photographs by Accardo, many of them in the latest color photographs - the kind of photographs recorded the precious image of Caesar naked with his eyes closed, and it was clear that the little one's childhood was more than twice as happy as Accardo's.

Just as Accardo was smiling as his personal photographer Hugo held the latest camera and left precious pictures of his son as a souvenir, a major stood at the doorway with a document in his hand, constantly glancing at Anna, who was with Accardo. Anna knew that something urgent had happened, otherwise the people from the MIL would not have disturbed the Führer's private resting space.

So she had to gently tug at the corner of Accardo's clothes with her hand, reminding the Führer that someone had come to him with important documents. Accardo looked at the door, then smiled apologetically at Mercedes beside the bed, before getting up and walking over to the officer, taking the papers from the officer's hand.

Just now, American bombers attacked our oil field facilities in Romania, a chemical plant was hit and caught fire, 17 houses collapsed, and the fire department is organizing the rescue of Romanian civilians. The officer raised his right hand and saluted Accardo, then gave a brief account of the message.

In fact, the bombing of the Americans and Soviets in Romania also caused damage to an oil facility, but after emergency repairs, production was restored, so in line with the basic principle of turning big things into small ones, the local defenders and air force command decided not to report such a small loss to the great Führer, after all, the Führer was very busy, and it was natural that he should not worry about some trivial things.

However, the brilliant results can definitely be boasted about compared to the losses, and they are enough to downplay the losses suffered in Romania: the Germans used a full 410 fighters and 120 anti-aircraft guns to intercept the invading enemy group, and the interception results can definitely be described as spectacular, at least 250 American planes and 150 Soviet planes were shot down, while Germany paid only a slight loss of 31 fighters.

The Air Force gave birth to 12 ace pilots in one go, and the perverted Hartmann shot down more than 10 enemy planes in the battle that day, raising his record to more than 140 in one fell swoop, so that other German pilots had to sadly admit that such a genius was born in the same era and was destined to become the top flying ace.

"American bombers?" Accardo, who has been engaged in politics for 10 years, has sensitively grasped what is really worth noting in this report, and American bombers have often tried to attack German targets before, but as long as it is not within the scope of North Africa, the words "British Air Force" will be tacitly mentioned in the internal German report.

The officer had obviously made some preparations before coming, so he immediately replied: "My Führer, this time the American bombers did not change their liveries, I don't know if it was because they were too late or because of lack of supplies, in short, this time the American bombers are all standard US Army Air Corps liveries. ”

Accardo's face immediately turned bad, he threw the document to the officer beside him, then looked at Anna on the side, and ordered: "Let Mr. Augustus ...... And Merkel, come to see me at the Führer's mansion at once! Inform Fanny immediately, with the personnel and equipment, and prepare the broadcast and video recording according to the specifications of the important press conference!"

Obviously, the news of the air raid on the Romanian oil field has been sent to the Prime Minister's Office and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, after all, the American bomber boldly appeared in quasi-German airspace without changing its livery, and this kind of thing is not simply a military operation, but a relatively serious political incident.

So without making Accardo wait long, Augustus and Merkel rushed to the Führer's mansion one after the other, apparently the two of them were already on their way before Accardo summoned them. When they met, the three of them did not greet each other, and directly talked about the problem of this Romanian air raid.

"The Americans may have a premonition that the situation in North Africa is out of control, so they have adopted a strategy of striking first against us. Augustus pointed to the map in front of him and said to Accardo: "We are approaching the Middle East, once we break through the Suez Canal defense line, then the Americans will lose the entire Middle East oil-producing area, and we will also gain another huge oil-producing base." ”

Merkel nodded, adding: "On the other hand, I have been approached several times by several senior men of the Jewish consortium and their representatives, and they are eager for us to support them in establishing their own state in the Jerusalem area, and they have provided large sums of money to support our continued expansion in the direction of the Middle East. ”

Accardo knew this, and the Jewish consortium was no longer as cautious as it was a year ago, and they saw the hope of German victory in the war, and also saw the possibility of Accardo's fulfillment of its commitments, so the European Jewish group, which had not actively supported Accardo, had now taken out its own funds to support Accardo's plan to continue to expand its military operations in North Africa.

An important part of this was the fact that the Jewish consortium in France took out a reserve of gold from Vichy France, which was hidden in a secret base on the outskirts of Paris, to be used to finance the expansion of the German army. When a full 100 tons of gold were transported out of the underground vault, the dazzling light almost blinded the German special forces soldiers who were escorting the gold. This also proves from another perspective that in fact, as the original European power, the defeated France still has a lot of potential to be tapped.

Of course, in fact, there was still a long way to go from Accardo's plans: Accardo was actively preparing for an unprecedented large-scale campaign with the Soviets on the Eastern Front when winter came, and the Jews wanted Accardo to stop the offensive in other directions and concentrate on helping them recover first. Obviously, Accardo would not compromise easily on this matter, after all, the support of the Jews could not compensate for the losses he might have suffered on the Eastern Front.

"The Jews aside, this time the Americans have torn their faces and suddenly attacked our most important places, which is definitely a problem that needs to be solved immediately. Accardo mentioned the blatant salary withdrawal of the Americans this time, and his voice became colder and colder. He walked to the huge world map, stood opposite Augustus, and pressed his hand to Washington and New York: "The Third Reich will never be beaten passively! Merkel Fanny is already next door, the press conference will be held immediately, give you ten minutes, the Holy German Third Reich, officially declare war with the United States of America!"

"Führer! you...... Is it really about to declare war with the United States?" Merkel knows that Accardo has always been very afraid of turning the other cheek with the United States diplomatically, and even acquiesced to the US military action in Africa, and was not prepared to turn the other cheek with the United States. Now, at the critical juncture when the Eastern Front campaign is about to begin, it is absolutely not a wise choice to suddenly declare war on a great power like the United States.

"The Führer is right, I think, at most, in a few hours, the Americans' declaration of war will be sent to the German Foreign Office......" Augustus, of course, also knew that it was not Accardo who wanted to declare war at this time, but the Americans were preparing to declare war, otherwise those planes would not have been able to disguise their identities without British livery, and it would have been impossible to send such a number of planes at the same time to suddenly attack Romania's oil field facilities that were vital to Germany.

"Mr. Augustus is right! The Empire cannot be forced to declare war on the other side every time, since the United States shamelessly declares war, we will declare war first!" Accardo said fiercely, clenching his fists.

He has now gotten used to this feeling, when you are least willing to face war, the enemy will start a war, after all, to be able to become a world power, everyone is not an idiot. Roosevelt and his generals analyzed it very thoroughly: Germany had cut off the route to the Cape of Good Hope in the Middle East, and the fighting had lost control in Egypt, which was no different from a declaration of war between the two sides, so there was no need to maintain that apparent state of peace.

Just as Accardo was making up his mind to declare war on the United States, the Americans were also preparing their own press conference on the declaration of war, and it seemed inevitable that the two main powers would go to war with each other in World War II.
