If the full-scale war breaks out, Germany will still have an oil gap of 5 million tons per year. Why is this happening? With Li Mo, a time traveler, this is still like this. Isn’t this seeking death? Time travelers are not omnipotent. Germany consumes 10 million tons of civilian oil every year, but military use is not counted. Germany’s oil source, taking 39 years as an example, Romania imported 3 million tons of oil (the production of Romanian oil fields is 10 million tons, and its shares belong to many countries). Germany’s coal-to-oil can produce 3 million tons this year and straw production is 2 million tons (both of these items are increasing production at a rate of 1 million tons per year). Germany’s civilian oil gap is 4 million tons per year, not military use, but these six million tons of oil sources will not be blocked now. (Real data)

Other oils are all imported from the Soviet Union and other European and American countries. The sources of these oils are guaranteed during peacetime, but they will be cut off immediately during wartime. In 39 years, Germany has been importing various substances, especially oil. What is the oil reserves that Germany has at this time? Five million tons, (real data). According to the monthly consumption of 1.8 million tons by the German people, Germany's oil reserves are up to three months. So Chamberlain asserted not long ago that Germany dared not invade Poland, because as long as Britain blocks German routes, Germany, which cannot obtain oil, will soon collapse because there is no oil. Even if Germany's armored torrent is powerful, without fuel, it can only be a pile of scrap iron.

Schmidt was specifically responsible for the fuel when loading the ship. In this large-scale operation, all the fuel reserves at Kiel Port were loaded at one time, while other German warships only had a small amount of fuel. It can be seen how tight Germany's fuel is, and every drop of fuel is extremely cost-effective. It is no wonder Schmidt gave such an order. Li Mo didn't think so. He would grab it without oil. In history, Germany did not grab oil, which does not mean he could not grab it either. Anyway, Li Mo already had his own route and strategic direction to grab oil.

Of course, Schmidt also received Li Mo's orders, which made Schmidt mutter about Li Mo's orders:

"I really don't know that the firewood and rice are expensive." The fuel brought in this operation is relatively sufficient, and Schmidt did not question Li Mo's orders. After all, doing a good job in air defense for the fleet is also crucial to the safety of the entire fleet.

Soon the plane patrolled outside reported that it was two Norwegian reconnaissance planes. The planes patrolled were requesting handling opinions.

When Li Mo knew it was a Norwegian aircraft, he began to weigh the pros and cons. Norway was a Nordic country with Britain and France, and their intelligence system must also be related to the British intelligence system. These two Norwegian reconnaissance aircraft were mostly entrusted by the UK to investigate. Since this is the case, why did Li Mo expel or shoot down the Norwegian aircraft? There was no need at all. The Norwegians wanted to inform him and let him report it.

"Order to notify two Norwegian reconnaissance aircraft using the International Common Communication Channel that our army is undergoing sea trials and training. To avoid accidents, please do not approach the aircraft carrier formation within ten nautical miles, and allow patrol aircraft to follow them. If the two reconnaissance aircraft have any attempt to attack, they will be shot down immediately."

Li Mo's meaning is very clear. You Norwegians can see it if you want, but please don't get too close to avoid a sudden attack, which will catch me off guard.

The two Norwegian reconnaissance aircraft immediately received news from the radio's international public channel that the red line set by Germany this time was relatively low, and as long as it was not ten nautical miles away from the aircraft carrier formation, it would be fine. As two Norwegian aircraft responsible for the reconnaissance mission, they came towards the aircraft carrier formation regardless of the few German fighter jets they were escorting. These two Norwegian reconnaissance aircraft were indeed shocked by the German aircraft carrier formation ten nautical miles away.

There are two types of aircraft parked on the huge bodies of more than a dozen huge aircraft carriers, and countless aircraft are undergoing take-off and landing training. The aircraft carrier is surrounded by dozens of destroyers, as well as the submarines that surface, and dozens of patrol aircraft in the air. The most attractive thing is the ugly fw61 helicopter, which is almost flying against the water surface. This thing has also been published in newspapers. Only Germany can produce a type of aircraft that can take-off and land and hover vertically. These helicopters are of course searching for submarines when flying against the water.

The Norwegian plane, which had completed the investigation, hurriedly left and sent the situation he saw to the UK. Of course, the course of the aircraft carrier formation focused on reporting. It seemed that these Norwegians were just here to confirm the news published in German newspapers to see if the German aircraft carrier formation was really going to the Arctic Ocean to test. Since the situation is true, there is no need to make a fuss. However, the German German army created more than a dozen aircraft carriers within a few months, which still surprised the Norwegians. Although some aircraft carriers were modified with merchant ships, Germany's strong industrial capabilities can also be seen.

In the next few days, Norwegian planes came to investigate every day. Everyone was careful and just be careful. Li Mo was not afraid of Norwegian investigations. Now that he had not entered the Arctic Ocean, Li Mo would not attack any country, so there was no need to keep it confidential.

On August 23, after Li Mo took the aircraft carrier formation out of the Norwegian coastline, the Norwegian plane did not come, but the helicopter discovered a submarine of unknown nationality in the air. The submarine was discovered when it was floating to the depth of the periscope twenty nautical miles away from the aircraft carrier formation.

"Reported to the commander-in-chief, he discovered a submarine of unknown nationality, twenty nautical miles southeast of our aircraft carrier formation."

"Appoint the patrol aircraft to support it, and at the same time use the long-range unlimited nationality public channel to notify the underwater unknown submarine to float up immediately. Otherwise, it will be deemed to have an attempt to attack and will be sunk immediately."

The aircraft carrier formation reinforcements were extremely fast. The ju87 patrolling above the aircraft carrier formation were all flying with missiles. Five deep-water bombs weighing 200 kilograms were hung under their wings. This thing was a killer weapon specifically targeting submarines. If it exploded ten meters away from the submarine, it was destroyed.

After giving the order, Li Mo also arrived at the command tower of Zeppelin. Deputy Commander-in-Chief Stephen is responsible for the front line, so his position is usually in this open-air command tower, while Li Mo is responsible for strategic command. For example, when and where the entire formation will attack the British local fleet, Li Mo has the final say, and Stephen is responsible for arranging the planes to attack.

The two of them have clear rights and responsibilities. Of course, Li Mo's mission is not easy. Coordinating the anti-submarine and air defense of a fleet is also a very tedious task. It's just that it's just a normal sea trial now, and there are no important combat tasks.

"Hello commander-in-chief, why are you here? I'm here, don't worry!"

"Thank you for your hard work, my brother."
