.The Third Reich under the Ten Thousand Characters Volume 5: Battle of Britain Chapter 15: Outlook and... Misconceptions?

Before 2018, our strategic goal was to expand Germany's living space, get back Danze, which should have belonged to us, and open up the transportation of the land with East Prussia. Now we have achieved the goal we want, but we have also started a war with the allies led by Britain and France. We define it as a war to expand living space. In the eyes of Britain, France and other countries, it is challenging their traditions..."

"As early as 1898, the United States had launched a war against the old colonial power Spain for overseas colonial power (Cuba and the Philippines). The United States successfully seized the Philippines from Spain. Did the United States get only an overseas colonial? Of course not! The United States has gained the position, reputation, and wealth!"

"The Philippines' minerals mainly include more than 20 types, such as copper, iron, chromium, nickel, etc. The copper reserves are about 100 million tons and 100 million tons. It is rich in thermal resources, and it is expected to have 2.09 billion barrels of standard crude oil energy. There are about 350 million barrels of oil reserves in the northwest of Palawan Island. It also has more than 1,000 islands of all sizes, including 11 seaports that can establish military ports. The United States' acquisition of the Philippines is equivalent to controlling the Asian Pacific part!"

Xu Yang raised his right hand and shook it gently, put the baton back into the distance, and walked around the conference room.

"What did we get from occupying Poland? Not only did we get back what originally belonged to us, but we also had Poland's resources. The foreign exchange and reserve funds alone increased by one, and we also gained a population."

The propaganda of the theory of blood makes the Germans proud, believing that the Aryans are the best race, including the Celtics in Western Europe and the Germans in Northern Europe, as well as the Iranian Aryans in Southern Europe. If we continue to follow, even some of the races in Indochina can be regarded as the Aaryans. However, the above people were not planned to be included in the combat personnel plan. Once a full-scale war begins, the number of troops that can fight for the Third Reich in Germany will not exceed the number of troops.

At present, including the Germans in the Third Reich and the Germans living in all over the world, the total population is no more than the total number of Germans serving in the Third Reich of Germany, which has reached the country and the acceptable range of nations. Forced conscription will affect the development of all aspects. War is not more than the number of soldiers, and technology has developed to the present day. The continuation of war still depends on the country's comprehensive strength, of course, including population.

"At present, Poland has our troops garrisons... including but not limited to Germans, Hungarians, Jews, and Poles. The total number is under pressure from the Soviet Union. Before 41 years, our country still needs to send no less than 1 million armed forces to the Polish Governor's Office to ensure the security of our east."

Regarding the military threat of the Soviet Union, the Supreme Command and the SS have reached an agreement that once the Soviet Union launched a war against the German Third Reich. The SS troops will defend the offensive, block the Soviet offensive, and wait for the National Defense Force to pull back from the Western Front and then launch a counterattack. On the other hand, due to the occupation of the three Baltic countries by the Soviet Union, both sides believe that it is necessary to increase assistance to Finland. This aid is not only a weapon, but also actual military operations. The SS 6th Northern Division has entered Finland's territory and is currently stationed in Keloserke in northern Finland. Because the SS 6th Northern Division does not belong to the German Third Reich national army, the Soviet Union failed to protest. It claimed that once the fire broke out between the two sides, it will be regarded as a mercenary and will not be treated as a regular army. At the same time, it will be sent to Germany.

"In the French side, including but not limited to the National Defense Forces, SS, and Hungarian Expeditionary Forces, the total number of armed personnel is before 10 months. The SS Base Camp will send 500,000 additional field troops to the northern coast of France to enhance the security of the coastline. At the same time, it is ready to land in Britain."

The Sea Lion Plan was formulated as early as 1936. The conclusion was that after the start of the French Battle, the army resolved France from the side, and most of the air forces first defended the security of Germany in the early stage. They fought for air supremacy in the local waters of the North Sea and the Gulf of England. After occupying Belgium and the Netherlands, they transferred the air force stationed in Germany to the territory of the two countries to bomb Britain. This plan was full of twists and turns, and the German Air Force fighter jets in the early stage were used.

The combat radius was too short and there was no escort cluster in the first wave of bombing, which led to the German bombers heading to Britain. In order to reduce the losses of their own bombers, the bombing was temporarily stopped and the development of medium-range interceptors and fighter jets was accelerated. The development of medium-range interceptors and fighter jets in the Moon Messer-Schmid series and Dornier series of medium-range and long-range escort aircraft was only served in the German Air Force. However, after serving under the pressure of the army, the bombing operation was delayed and was not yet on the table again.

"Based on the intelligence sent back by our intelligence personnel in Britain, the UK carried out large-scale recruitment propaganda on the ground, and at the same time, it also shifted the focus of the military industry to aircraft production, trying to use the English Channel to protect its own safety. In order to ensure the local security, Churchill drew warships from the colonies back to China."

“There are pros and cons!”

"The British have drawn warships back to China, which has reduced the pressure on our country in local waters and the Atlantic Ocean. It is expected that the plan to march to North Africa will be implemented in advance from 1941, but it has also affected our military combat plan to land in Britain."

"Time is tight! We don't have many choices anymore. At present, our i fleet is divided into two formations, stationed in Rotterdam, Belgium and Wilhelmshaven in the local area. However, under the pressure of the Soviet Union on the Baltic Sea, our navy must draw some warships back to Danze to increase our naval strength in the Baltic Sea. While deterring the Soviet Union, it is conducive to supporting Finland and ensuring the safety of the Gulf of Finland's maritime transportation line. In addition, in order to completely blockade the eastern part of Britain, the navy also needs to send warships to Norway, increase the submarine Xuyang and stop behind Erich Redel for about five seconds, and then move again to Heidrich.

"My country and the Soviet Union will surely have a war in the future. To plan for the future, the Imperial Security Ministry has sent necessary agents and diplomatic envoys to Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, these three newly occupied countries, to help the three Baltic countries form a resistance organization. At present, the Gestapo Foreign Affairs Section has reached an agreement with the former government organizations of the Baltic Three Kingdoms to provide conditions for funding their materials, including weapons and funds."

"In addition, in Ukraine and Belarus, we have also dispatched necessary agents. The current preparation is to understand the situation and establish intelligence organizations under the current establishment, which will help our country to carry out self-defense counterattacks to the Soviet Union in the future."

"The SS is also absorbing Nordic soldiers suitable for severe cold warfare, including Estonians, Latvians, Belarusians, Ukrainians and some Russians who voluntarily joined our army."

Xu Yang laughed cheerfully when he said this.

"The Soviet Union is carrying out a great purge. In order to consolidate his dictatorship, the dear Comrade Stalin has started to work with his previous merits. At present, the purge activity certificate is carried out like fire and tea. Most senior military generals, including Belarus, the commander of the Ukrainian Front, have been imprisoned. We should thank the dear Comrade Stalin, who has solved a lot of trouble for us." Franzhard, who has no humorous cells, finally humored: "Our Ministry of Foreign Affairs sent a letter of thanks to the dear Comrade Stalin?"

Foreign Minister Bethlich smiled implicitly, raised his hand and waved it. Ribintrop, who was standing behind Bethlich, looked at Xu Yang thoughtfully.

Ribintrop was just urgently recruited from Moscow. He would rush to Italy, Spain, Portugal and other countries as a diplomatic ambassador, and then return to Germany. Ribintrop's assistant Shurenberg was promoted to German diplomatic ambassador to the Soviet Union, fully responsible for the connection between Germany and the Soviet Union. Ribintrop was originally not qualified to participate in such an important meeting, but due to the direct relationship between diplomatic and military operations in the future, Ribintrop made an exception and was invited to the Supreme Command of the National Defense Forces to listen. He had no say and could only listen.

Ribintrop actually felt very depressed in his heart. He would not understand why Xu Yang firmly believed that Germany - the Soviet Union would have a battle in the future. What he saw in the Soviet Union was that the Soviet Union was very friendly to Germany and had always adopted a supportive attitude in major newspapers. Public opinion always tended to defend Germany. Just after Germany annexed the Netherlands and Belgium, the Soviet Union also publicly supported Germany, believing that the British and French had long planned to turn the Netherlands and Belgium into fortresses to attack the center of German life, and that Germany was forced to occupy the Netherlands and Belgium.

At present, there is a misunderstanding between Germany and the Soviet Union. The two countries are still in a cooperative posture on the surface, but the top leaders of both sides believe that there will be friction, which is limited to the existence of Germany and the Soviet Union's non-aggression treaty. Although the two countries are fighting in secret, there is no obvious hostility to take the stage.

Simply put, Germany was secretly plotting against the Soviet Union, but on the surface, Germany's policy to the Soviet Union was a friendly attitude. Excluding Germany's secret support for Finland and military support for Romania, the two countries did not have obvious confrontation. This is also a normal self-defense foreign policy. As for the secret, what should the two countries do or what should they do.

It can also be seen from the stance of the SS retreating from the frontiers of eastern Poland. Even the military cooperation between the two countries has not stopped. At present, part of the interests of the policies of the two countries are the same, that is, to knock down the old power led by Britain and France. This is why the German army won steadily on the French front. Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov ignored the strong opposition of Britain, France and other allies and invited German Ambassador to Moscow Schulenburg to his office, representing the Soviet government to express his warmest congratulations on the great achievements of the German armed forces.

So, there are many ways to play politics, and sometimes it is not surprising to do something inexplicable.

"In view of Italy, Spain and Portugal's willingness to join the war, what do you think?"

Ribintrop's body moved, and he opened his mouth to say something, but his identity was too low.

Xu Yang saw Ribin Tropp's actions...
