Chapter 1120 1121 The Distant Future

In fact, there are some people in the military who support this kind of reform to remove the restrictions, because along with the policy of relaxing the civilian side, the fuel restrictions within the German military have also been lifted on a large scale. Originally, there was a clear rule in Germany that officers below the rank of colonel were prohibited from riding in cars, but with the abolition of the fuel restriction order, the military relaxed this rule to the rank of lieutenant. Obviously, this relaxation is very popular with middle-level officers.

The development of society is like this, once the demand is released, there will be a blowout of the use of expansion. But as supply becomes more balanced, this will eventually return to normal. It's not for nothing that Accardo dared to do so, because he now has more than just one Libyan oil field in his hands.

The Baku oil field is slowly resuming its own production, as most of the production equipment has been retained due to the protection of the previously surrendered defenders. This was simply the result that the Germans could only dream of, and at least after the efforts to combat the local partisans were effective, the oil fields produced in Baku were already capable of supplying many front-line troops.

Rommel, on the other hand, has driven Mountbatten's defenders to the eastern part of Saudi Arabia by his triumphant advance in the Middle East. If he could maintain this pace of attack, the German panzers would take control of another oil-producing area - for a period of time, the Germans no longer seemed to have to worry about the oil fields, as if overnight they had gone from being an oil-poor country to a real oil monopoly.

With the increasing management and production of rubber plantations in Central Africa and the ******** of Farben's development of synthetic rubber, the lack of rubber in Germany has become a thing of the past. At least most of the time, Germany's own rubber products can already meet most domestic needs.

This is why most empires will eventually embark on the path of expansion, because as their territory expands, as their sphere of influence expands, the various means of production needed for their own development will become more and more abundant. That kind of uncontrolled internal movement is much easier than importing from other countries.

So while Lütjens was leaving German waters with his aircraft carrier fleet, Accardo stood in the live television lecture room of the Führer's Mansion and delivered a speech on the lifting of the oil ban in front of tens of thousands of television viewers across the country: "Gentlemen, if your memory has not deteriorated, you will remember what I said to you at the beginning of the war. ”

"The German sword is going to fight for the land for the German plow. He looked at the camera that shot his face, with a hint of stubbornness and confidence, and slowly spoke: "But in the past year, in order to strive for victory and defeat a powerful enemy, I helplessly ask you to forge the precious plow in your hand into a sword that can bring justice to us with tears in your eyes!"

"When we broke the chains imposed on us by the Treaty of Versailles and overthrew the villains who oppressed us, the swords in our hands were already stained with blood. Therefore, we are not willing to withdraw the weapons in our hands, and we are determined to continue to seek a new world order for our children and grandchildren with our long sword!"

"Now our sharp swords are unstoppable, but we don't have as many cars as Americans, and our wages can't buy the tools we want to use...... It's not because we're inferior to others, it's because we're in a war for a new order!"

"But this is no excuse for us having to endure poverty! I, as your head, have begged you to give enough. So here I have made the difficult decision to let our people choose for themselves whether to continue to support the great empire in its war or to start sharing in the joy of victory and the dividends of war. ”

"I am now announcing the official implementation of the Non-Restriction of Oil Statute in the pilot cities, and the removal of the restriction on the use of oil by civilians in the war has been lifted by the Empire. Although this is only the first step in solving the problem, please give the Reich some time, and I assure you in the name of the Führer that the Reich's restrictions on goods will be lifted more and more broadly until the principle of free trading capital is fulfilled!"

"At the same time, fish sales in coastal cities are also opened, and wine and meat sales in pilot cities are also opened...... Our empire has not been dragged down by war, this is what I have repeatedly promised you, and now I prove what I said with my actions, please all the people who are worried about the future of the empire, keep your eyes open and see the life around you that is about to get better and better!"

"Everyone will live better! Everyone will enjoy a new future! The empire will become a model for all the nations of this world, and for the sake of our common happy life, please trust me and believe in our empire. ”

"When you raised your right hand and shouted to me Long live the Führer, I felt nothing but responsibility! When I raise my right hand to you, all I can shout is long live the Empire, long live only the people! Yes, you are the people, so I sincerely pray that you will live as long live as I am, long live as long live as the Empire, and long live as long live as the new order of this world!"

"Long live the great Holy Third Reich!" he finally ended his speech with a loud voice, ending this inspiring speech. Radio and television broadcasts sparked another wave of support for the Führer with his words, and people cheered the Führer's name in the streets and alleys, holding up this gift from God to the German people.

After the speech, the lights dimmed, and Fanny walked up to Accardo, with a look of adoration on her face, and praised in a coquettish voice: "Great Führer, you are really a natural star, and my heart beats so fast when I saw you on TV just now." I bet you get a lot more support on the female side than on the male side. ”

After complimenting her man, Fanny gave Accardo to Speer, the Minister of Industry, who stepped forward - the most fascinating thing about her is that as a propaganda minister and a woman, she can never confuse the two identities, and even in bed, she can help Accardo think about those important tasks.

"My Führer!" nodded in thanks to Fanny who had left, and Speer stood in front of Accardo, who had been praised by his own woman. Every man wants to be praised by women, especially beautiful women with outstanding ability, and that desire to conquer is absolutely unforgettable, which has nothing to do with the age and experience of men.

"The completion of 40 coal-fired power stations this month will ease the problem of electricity shortages in the southern part of the empire. But I've surveyed the various power installations built by the Empire, and with all due respect, my Führer, I've found that we're seriously spilling over our generation...... "Speer knows exactly how many resources he has, especially electricity."

He knew the total number of power plants in the country, and with the support of Accardo, he was working hard to improve the national grid, but recently he found that many projects within the empire were simply devouring electricity, and Berlin was three times more electricity than New York at the same time - a full three times the electricity consumption, and he, the Minister of Industry, did not even know what the electricity was being used for.

"I know that if it is normal urban electricity consumption, and there is factory electricity use, I have built a thermal power generation system that is sufficient for you one and a half years ago, that is, before you took over the Ministry of Industry. Accardo stood up and explained to his henchman as he walked towards the door.

"But...... My Führer, I don't even know where so much electricity is going, it's really shocking......" Obviously, as the head of the organization and production of the traditional industrial sector, he still does not have a clear understanding of the degree of electricity consumption of modern industry.

Accardo pushed open the door and walked into the hallway, then turned his head to Speer and said, "The Prophet Project you only have one report there, do you know how much power this huge device will consume every day? We are still working on the Prophet 2 and 3, and Imperial University is working on the Super Prophet system...... The amount of electricity used in this is probably more than the amount of electricity consumed in several production lines at Krupp. ”

Supercomputers are a big consumer of electricity, and there are secret new plastic factories on the outskirts of Berlin. The factory is still just a small experimental factory, and there are dozens of plastic factories in the southern region at the same time, plus the consumption of electrolytic aluminum, the thirst for electricity in modern industry can only be said to be endless.

Of course, Accardo has another plan that cannot be said to Spelmin, and that is the nuclear energy research program of the Third Reich, which is enough to consume billions of kilowatt-hours of electricity, and this large household "does not exist" on paper, and there are only three or four people in this country who know the full content of this plan.

"Believe me, this part of the vanished electrical energy is in the service of a huge program. Accardo stopped in front of his office and turned to Speer and warned, "Don't investigate the electricity consumption anymore, instead, cover up the problem carefully." Please do not doubt the country's thirst for electricity, I can tell you responsibly that even 3 trillion kilowatt hours of electricity generation will not be enough for our future needs. ”

Speer paused for a moment when he heard the figure of three trillion kilowatt hours, and then he looked up in horror and looked at the back of Accardo as he walked into the office—he couldn't understand the man, he didn't know how far away the future he was talking about.
