The west coast of Africa, in German Liberia.

As the largest military fortress of the German army, Monrovia is stepping up the construction of defensive fortifications.

Since the bombing, the Monrovia Fortress has been in ruins, and the angry local Germans and the German soldiers stationed in Monrovia have all rebelled. They want to punish the shameless bombing of the Luftwaffe.

Schlifen could not tell the truth. After all, this was the highest military secret of the German Empire. He dared not say that this was a misunderstanding. He could only make the mistake just by mistake, and confirmed the charge of betraying the German Empire.

At this time, the German Empire and the Chinese Empire were negotiating in Constantinople, the capital of the Ottoman Empire. Schlifen knew that it would never escape the disaster in the end. The Chinese Empire would definitely attack German Southwest Africa. The question was just whether it could get the tacit approval of the German Empire.

Obviously, as far as the international strategy of the entire German Empire is concerned, the German military needs enough time to conduct military training and reserve war resources, otherwise it will be unable to compete with the Chinese Empire at all, which requires sacrificing part of the interests of the colonies and exchanging space for time.

Although Schlifen vaguely guessed the conspiracy behind this, he finally chose to sacrifice himself for the German Empire, determined to fight to the end with the Chinese Empire in Southwest Africa and gain valuable development time for the German Empire.

Fortunately, Schlifen is of value, so Prince Baden and Hitler have not planned to give up. They secretly mobilized military supplies from Monrovia during the negotiations.

Similarly, the Chinese Empire was also searching for the location of the German army's secret bomber group.

Schlie knew very well that the Chinese Empire had not taken action for a long time, but was afraid of the German secret bomber group and worried that Roberts Port would be bombed on a large scale.

However, as the Imperial Chinese Aviation Force began to conduct large-scale night take-off and landing training, large-scale increase in the deployment of anti-aircraft artillery forces, and the eight huge towers that were suddenly erected recently, these have greatly improved the night air defense capabilities of the Imperial Chinese Aviation Force, which made Shi Lifen feel deeply worried. He knew that his preparation time was not long.

"Look, it's an enemy plane, they are here again!"

Suddenly, the Germans at the Monrovia Fortress were panicked and prepared to flee in all directions.

"Don't panic, that's just a reconnaissance plane of the Chinese Empire!"

Schlifen shouted loudly, calming everyone's panic, but he himself was as heartbroken as he knew that these German soldiers had panic about the plane after a large bombing.

"Let the fighter take off immediately and drive away these flies!"

Soon a German fighter team took off and flew over to the reconnaissance planes of the Chinese Empire.

Several Chinese Empire reconnaissance planes flew quickly to the other side, leading the German fighter squad away, and then flew six reconnaissance planes from the other side, intending to approach Monrovia Fortress for aerial reconnaissance and photograph.

"I have guessed your tricks long ago!"

Schlifen below snorted coldly and once again ordered another German fighter team to take off for expulsion.

But soon Shi Lifen became confused because the third reconnaissance ship team of the Chinese Empire appeared again.

This time, Schlie broke up and there were no fighter planes in his relationship to take off for interception.

"Damn it!"

Schliefen was furious and finally discovered his weakness, that is, the night when Monrovia was bombed, a large number of German fighters parked at the airport were blown up. On the contrary, the Chinese Empire not only had a large number of Army aviation fighters in Roberts Port, but also eight large aircraft carriers, which combined with hundreds of aircraft, and had an absolute advantage in number.

"General, we still have anti-aircraft guns! Take them down!"

Someone suggested using anti-aircraft guns on the ground to drive them away, but Shi Lifen shook his head and did not dare to do that. He knew that it was a delicate period and he had to hold back.

"Let them investigate! Notify the workers to disguise the ground equipment and do the underground work first!"

The Monrovia Fortress is being constructed, and many of the original fortifications were destroyed in the bombing, which just helped Shilifen to re-plan, transform and build stronger fortifications.

An hour later, the Chinese Empire reconnaissance planes hovering over Monrovia flew away, and they took enough photos.

At this time, a German officer came to report: "Report, our reconnaissance plane is back!"

Shilifen was immediately overjoyed and asked hurriedly: "Tell me, what have you found?"

The officer shook his head with a bitter face and said, "We sent six reconnaissance aircraft, only one came back, and the other five were shot down by the opponent's fighter jets and air defense artillery."

"What?" Shi Lifen was shocked. He didn't expect that the Chinese Empire was so cautious. He then asked: "Isn't there one back? Have you found any information?"

The officer then said: "The Chinese Empire has a tight defense. After five reconnaissance planes were shot down, the last reconnaissance plane hurriedly evacuated, but only took a few photos from a distance."

As he said that, the officer handed over several photos to Shilifen.

"What is this? Watchtower?"

Looking at the tall iron towers, Shili was confused and didn't know what it was.

The officer explained: "It doesn't seem to be a watchtower. If the height of the Chinese Empire soldiers below serves as a reference, it can be estimated that the tower is more than 100 meters tall, and it is not a sentry tower structure on it, but more like a complex antenna structure, similar to a broadcast antenna."

“Broadcast antenna?”

Shi Lifen was stunned and didn't understand why the Imperial Chinese Army built a radio antenna.

"Is it a political offensive against us?"

Schlifen thought of a possibility, that is, the political offensive of the Chinese Empire, and used radio stations to sell the Chinese Empire's ideas to the people of the German Empire, such as how powerful the Chinese Empire is, how developed the economy is, how high the people's living standards are, how harmonious the society is, etc.

This kind of broadcasting has a huge lethality to the people of the German Empire, because the people of the German Empire live in a difficult situation and are particularly yearning for the lives of the people of the Chinese Empire. They want to work, live, and even live in that harmonious society forever.

The more the German people think, the more they will hate the current German imperial government. Just as the Chinese in the 21st century envied Americans, desperately making money and immigrating to the United States, desperately promoting how good the American Empire is and how bad it is to discredit China. They would even rather go to the American Empire to pick up trash than stay in China.

The Chinese Empire has been conducting ideological infiltration into the German Empire, criticizing the politics of the German Empire, shaking the rule of the German emperor, and inciting the German people to rebel.

Today's German Empire has many anti-government separatist forces, and they are shaking the foundation of the German Empire.

Therefore, this propaganda war was hated by the German Empire government, and Schlifen, as the Minister of Defense, knew more about the harm.

"So shameless!"

Schlifen thought that the Imperial Chinese army on the opposite side was preparing to launch a propaganda war to shake the morale of the German army guarding the Monrovia Fortress.

"Send a report to Berlin immediately. If the war begins, I hope the bomber group will give priority to blowing up those damn radio towers."

Schlifen thought it was a radio tower, but when the photo was sent back to Berlin, Hitler was shocked the first moment he saw it.

He recognized the transmitting antenna on it, which was definitely not a radio tower.

"Not good! The Chinese Empire has deployed a radar system in Port Roberts!"

Seeing Hitler so nervous, William III and Prince Baden asked one after another.

“What is radar?”

"You look very nervous about those towers!"

Hitler calmed down and explained to the two: "Your Majesty and the Prime Minister should know the sonar system used by the Navy to detect submarines!"

The sonar system is no longer a secret, and both William III and Prince Baden understand it, so they nodded one after another.

Hitler continued: "Sonar can listen to submarines underwater, and radars can also detect aircraft in the air."

Can detect aircraft in the air?

William III and Prince Baden were stunned at first, but soon realized the seriousness of the problem.

Especially Prince Baden, he thought of the bomber group at the first time.

"Can our bomber fleet be detected?"

"Yes!"

Hitler nodded with certainty and said, "The reason why the Chinese Empire negotiated with us is that it was because it was because it was because it was because it was afraid of the Empire's bomber group. They didn't seem to have many strategies to deal with it, but if they built a radar station, they would probably not be afraid of our bomber group."

William III suddenly said: "It's not that terrifying! Even if we can find our bomber group, we can't stop it. After all, we are raiding at night, and their fighters take off and intercept them, and night battles may not necessarily see our bombers."

Hitler shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is only considering one aspect, but we don't know how long their radar can detect. If it exceeds a few hundred kilometers, it is easy to find the direction of our bomber group. If they wait suddenly on the route of our bomber group during the day, then our bomber group will be destroyed."

Prince Baden also said anxiously: "What should we do now? If our bomber group loses its strategic deterrence, wouldn't it mean that the Chinese Empire may terminate negotiations at any time and then start a war!"

Hitler also looked helpless. He thought of the clever strategy of using bombers to attack the Chinese Empire at night, but ignored the big hidden danger of radar.

"At present, the Chinese Empire may have stepped up the deployment and development of radars, so in order to ensure the empire's future strategic advantage, we have to think of other ways."

William III asked: "Hitler, do you have any good suggestions?"

Hitler thought for a while and said, "If the Chinese Empire had radar, then our bomber group could not easily perform bombing missions alone. We need to immediately develop supporting long-range escort fighters to cover the bomber group for bombing. At the same time, the bomber group will gradually lose its deterrence after the air strikes, so we need to strengthen the saturated firepower on the ground. I suggest that we launch the rocket launcher system immediately."

William III and Prince Baden can understand the issue of long-range escort fighter jets, but ground rocket launcher systems are unheard of.

"What is a rocket launcher system?"

Hitler explained: "The Russians invented individual anti-tank rockets, which actually extended the flight distance of the rockets and installed them on specific launch vehicles to achieve large-scale saturation bombing and can achieve bombing effects similar to bombers."

Prince Baden nodded and said, "This sounds good, is there any technical problems?"

Hitler shook his head and said, "There is no technical problem and it will be solved soon, but it may cost a lot of money."

As soon as financial issues were involved, William III and Prince Baden were both sad in an instant, and the latter asked weakly: "How much does it cost to form combat power?"

Hitler said: "The key to the rocket launcher system is rocket engine technology. After each rocket is launched, the rocket engine will be destroyed together, so it is a disposable rocket engine, similar to the fish radium engine."

Fish radium is very expensive, not because of the warhead. On the contrary, the warhead of fish radium is very cheap. It is expensive because of the engine and fuel of fish radium, because they are all disposable consumables.

The rocket launcher launcher can only volley dozens of rockets, or even hundreds of rockets, to achieve saturation bombing effect, so the money needed is to go to the sea.

Prince Baden's mouth twitched, but William III did not consider those and agreed to Hitler's plan without hesitation.

Then there was a new round of quarrels, and William III agreed, but Prince Baden did not agree and did not pay.

Hitler stood aside silently, waiting for the two to quarrel, with a smile on his lips.

In the end, Prince Baden compromised, after all, William III was still the emperor of the German Empire. If a fall in love really happened, it would not be beneficial to Prince Baden. At least it was not suitable now. It would have to wait until Schlidian died. Otherwise, Schlidian would be alive, and the German Empire's military would not be able to sit idly by and watch Prince Baden depose William III.

Hitler received 50 million German Mark financial grants to develop and produce rocket launcher systems.

The 50 million German marks seemed to be a lot, but Hitler knew that this was a drop in the bucket. He could only build a rocket launcher regiment, and it was not enough to deter the Chinese Empire.

However, Hitler was very cunning and quickly contacted Starling and sought cooperation with the Russians.

Starlin has successfully developed Katyusha rocket launcher technology, but lacks funds and factory production. Hitler just sent an olive branch. The two hit it off. Hitler promised to provide Starlin with two regiments of Katyusha rocket launcher systems. With the Katyusha rocket launcher system, he cooperated with Krupp, the largest arms giant in Germany. Krupp saw the value of Katyusha rocket launcher, so he spent a lot of money to buy drawings and was willing to produce them in large quantities for the German army.

So Hitler achieved his goal without spending money, and the additional 50 million German marks almost all fell into his private account.
