However, Zhou Yu did not blindly sit back and watch the tiger fight, he sold ammunition, aircraft, and technical support to Britain through the channels of the Chinese Federation and Williams's connections.

Of course, what he sells is leftover from the Dragon Chamber of Commerce, and some of it is equipment that has been eliminated from the federal government's army.

On the other hand, Zhou Yu also buried the deepest "nail" of the German military top to transport some technology to Germany, so that the strength of the German air force and the British and French air forces could be as equal as possible.

When the secret stake, codenamed "Beer", brought back the information that Zhou Yu had revealed to him to Hitler, the Führer was overjoyed and ordered the Nazi weapons arsenal in the Ruhr area to be reactivated to build a corresponding advanced fighter jet and expand the entire arsenal.

This colossal industrial monster stretches from the left bank of the Rhine in the west, Hamm in the east, the Rall in the south, and the Lipper in the north, about forty miles from east to west, and twenty-five miles north to the south, for a total area of 1,000 square miles.

If you follow the plain in the middle of the two river valleys, you can see that there are fourteen cities densely packed here, and they form a huge urban agglomeration, not only that, but because of its topography, it is also suitable for farming, and the water network is dense, which can provide the whole region with water for production and domestic use, as well as for shipping.

The reactivated Ruhr industrial area is a massive behemoth, pumping out fighter jets, guns, shells, and submarines every day.

Especially after the German army completely occupied the European continent, it concentrated all the plundered resources here.

"Führer, our new aircraft has completed test flights and is ready to be put into service at any time!"

Nazi Reich Field Marshal, Commander-in-Chief of the Luftwaffe Grimm said excitedly.

"Very well, and what about our troop carriers?" Hitler then asked.

"Führer, we have enough troop carriers to transport millions of elite soldiers across the English Channel, and in addition, the V-2 rocket we have developed has achieved long-range strikes across the English Channel, and its effective range can reach 321 kilometers, and there is no pressure to hit from the north coast of France to the British mainland!"

Hearing the report of his generals, Hitler was once again overjoyed, he glanced at the hanging map behind him, and said in a deep voice: "Generals, it's time to defeat the arrogant British, our army will draw up a plan to land infantry in the south of Britain and occupy London deeply, cut off all contact with the outside world, and then occupy LinkedIn in one fell swoop as the ultimate goal, codenamed 'Sea Lion'!"

Green, before we go on a general offensive, I want you to throw all the bombs in our inventory over the heads of the British, especially London, and deploy all our V1 and V2 missiles on the north coast of France, and we will fight with the air force, so that the British have no respite! ”

"Yes! Monarch! ”

At Hitler's command, the entire German army began to move.

The overall strategic intent of the "Sea Lion Project" was to carry out a surprise military operation on a broad front extending from Ramsgate to the west of the Isle of Wight.

The Nazis sent 3,000 planes based in Norway, the Netherlands, Belgium and France in turn to completely destroy the British defensive offensive, destroy its air force, suppress the British navy with firepower, seize control of the English Channel, and then send another 25 to 40 divisions to land on as wide a coastline as possible and occupy LinkedIn in one fell swoop.

Hitler also realized that if they could not fully control the English Channel, no matter how powerful their air force and army were, it would be useless to go to the British Isles.

However, with the technical information intercepted by his SS ace agent Kate, the German air combat power has made an unprecedented breakthrough, which makes the German air force commander Grimm have no doubt about the victory, and he even thinks that the air force alone can bomb the British and bomb them, and maybe they can directly make them surrender.

On the other hand, in order to prevent the possible invasion of German aircraft, the British mainland has arranged nearly 1,500 anti-aircraft balloons in major coastal cities, which contain hydrogen, are large and light, and are usually raised to the altitude of enemy aircraft flights, which can effectively interfere with the invasion of German aircraft.

In addition, the British mainland is also actively developing its own air defense weapons and combat capabilities, in order to facilitate the command, they have divided the territory into six air defense zones, each air defense zone is divided into several air defense divisions, each air defense zone is stationed a fighter group, most of them are equipped with Hurricane and Spitfire fighters, and the rest have some older aircraft purchased from the federal government.

It is said that it is the federal government, but in fact, most of them are sold to them by the Dragon Chamber of Commerce, and of course the price is not cheap.

But now Britain is still counting on the federal government to help him fight Germany, and the more expensive it is, the more expensive it is, and this ally must not be offended.

Moreover, Williams and Zhou Yu have a good personal relationship, and the latter is the number one aide of the federal president, as long as this relationship is maintained, maybe he can still ask for some financial or material help.

Yes, while Zhou Yu revealed the fighter drawings to the German army, he also sold Williams a favor through personal connections through private contacts, which made the latter overjoyed, and took the information that Zhou Yu "accidentally" revealed to him, and stepped up the construction of fighter jets, as well as assembly line equipment for weapons factories.

Under the wave of national conscription in the United Kingdom, they produced about 500 fighters per month, even more than the German factories, but they also encountered a serious problem, that is, although there were many planes produced, the lack of pilots became a big problem.

The Royal Air Force suffered the worst pilot shortage crisis in history, but at this moment, Williams's friend Zhou Yu once again reached out to help, sending a group of flight cadets from the Longxing Military Academy to help Britain.

But he had stated in advance that the pilots of the Dragon Chamber of Commerce were not responsible for direct engagement with the Germans, but only for transportation, rescue, reconnaissance, etc.

Williams, of course, didn't mind, and agreed to it, not only providing a generous remuneration for each pilot from the Longxing Military Academy, but also providing a batch of troop carriers to the Longxing Chamber of Commerce after consultation, which was exactly what the latter needed most.

The clouds of war gradually loomed over the English Channel, and the pressure became lower and lower, so that even ordinary residents on both sides of the Channel felt the suffocation before the war came.

British residents even pasted thin strips of paper on the glass of their windows to form rice grids to prevent the shock wave from shattering the glass and injuring people when the bomb exploded, and every house was filled with buckets of sand and water for fire prevention, and everywhere they were rushing to buy food and drinking water, and everyone was ready to fight a long battle, a war against the wind.

Not only that, but the British government even prepared for the worst, transporting children between the ages of five and fifteen to other Imperial Dominions, and nearly 2,000 of them were evacuated to the New World, along with bank gold reserves, which were transferred to Montreal, Canada.

When Zhou Yu got the news, he couldn't help but applaud and said: "Now it's okay, all the bank reserves in the UK have been shipped to Canada, and if you trade with us in the future, you can let him buy it directly with gold bars, the distance is close, how convenient." ”
