Chapter 263 The Oil Problem

Historically, when the Navy was preparing for the Earl Zeppelin aircraft carrier, the plan was also two carrier-based aircraft.

Among them, the model improved by Mercedeschmidt is b 109t, which increases the wing area and increases lift. The wing lengthens by 60 cm. A hinge is installed on the outside of the mid-section aerial cannon, which can be folded upwards, and a landing hook is installed on the belly of the front wheel, a catapult contact is installed near the front wheel, and the corresponding structure is strengthened.

In addition to this carrier-based fighter, another carrier-based bomber is Stuka. Based on the ju 87b, it has modified the folding wing, equipped with catapult contacts, landing hooks and landing gears used for emergency landing on the water surface, becoming a carrier-based aircraft that can be used on aircraft carriers.

Now, due to Gorene's rough and uncooperation, there is no chance to board the BF109. Cialis took advantage of this opportunity to develop the FW190, which is completely in line with the needs of the navy. It has been modified compared to this aircraft in history, focusing on increasing fuel reserves and becoming a long-range fighter.

However, the Navy is still short of attack aircraft.

The he51 will definitely not be able to adapt to future wars. In fact, if Cialis chooses, Cialis hopes to be the HS129 with the title of tank opener. Unfortunately, this aircraft is still in the stage of plan demonstration.

On the Spanish battlefield, the pilots experimented with the effect of ground attacks. The conclusion was that air-to-ground attacks were effective even if there were no bombs and attacks with navigators. However, the aircraft had to add additional protection to become a flying tank.

Now it is just a plan demonstration. There is still a long time before the prototype is truly mature. After all, the historical hs129 was created under the stimulation of Yi-2.

Therefore, if you want to equip aircraft carriers with attack aircraft, Stuka is a good choice, especially when carrying bombs to attack ships, you are also a good player.

Now that Goring has proposed it, Cialique will certainly not refuse.

"Okay, I'm so glad to see our Navy and Air Force working together to make new contributions to our national defense cause," said Cialek.

Gorene was extremely unhappy when it came to hearing this. Now, in terms of military rank, Cialis is not as good as Gorene. However, in terms of status within the party, Cialis is already ranked second, and he is almost Hitler's designated successor!

So, although Cyric's tone made Gorin very upset, Gorin could only passively accept it.

"Great Head of State, I have to remind you that, now, although our army is becoming stronger day by day, our advanced mechanized army requires a large amount of fuel as the basis. However, now, our fuel reserves have always been at the lowest warning line."

After finishing his naval inspection and returning to Berlin, Albert Spel made a serious warning at the first meeting with Cialek.

Since Spel became the Minister of Equipment at Cialek's suggestion, he immediately showed his strengths. In a short period of time, he almost doubled the production of weapons in all aspects of Germany! This is a very amazing achievement!

Now, Germany does not have to worry about mineral resources for the time being. Through cooperation with the Soviet Union in the past few years, Germany has obtained a mountain of ore. Those ores can be used for at least 40 years according to the current calculation.

At the same time, there are mineral resources after conquering Austria and various minerals in Spain. In a short period of time, the mineral problems can be ignored.

However, the energy problem is imminent.

Germany's oil production is very small, and even after obtaining Austria, Austrian oil is far from enough for Germany's expenses.

The war in Spain showed the combat power of mechanized troops. Now, in the German army, infantry divisions are constantly transforming into armored divisions, and they all need more oil.

At the same time, the navy and the air force also need oil. Now, the oil problem is quite serious.

It can be said that although Germany now has a large amount of equipment, once it enters a state of war, Germany's oil supply will be cut off, and Germany's existing equipment will all become scrap iron. Germany's oil reserves cannot even support it for half a month.

Oil, this black gold, is the basis of all advanced equipment!

Hearing Spel's warning, Hitler looked at Cialis.

Libya has a large amount of oil, and it is still a secret now. At the top, there are no more than five people who know about it!

Over the years, Libyan engineering teams have been staying in Libya, all of which are the most loyal personnel. As long as Berlin sends a message, it can reach the level of 10,000 barrels of crude oil per day within a week, and within a month, it can reach the level of 100,000 barrels of Japanese oil per day! In this way, one Libya will be enough to support the entire German war machine!

After all, over the years, the engineering teams have laid all the oil wells in Libya, and there are 12 super-large oil fields with a total reserve of more than 1 billion barrels, and many of them are oil fields that are quite easy to exploit!

Moreover, over the years, the oil pipeline has been laid in the desert of Libya. It can be said that it is just waiting for the day when the rocks are broken!

Now, Germany lacks crude oil, and Libya has oil that can support Germany in winning the entire World War II!

What to do? Do you want to do it now?

The temptation was too great. Even Cialis thought for a long time before controlling the temptation. He calmly said to Hitler: "Our secret cannot be revealed yet."

It cannot be exposed, and before conquering France, it cannot be exposed! After conquering France, after gaining control of the Mediterranean, you can just transport it to Germany by land, from Libya, across the Mediterranean to Spain, from Spain and then to France!

Although shipping can also be transported directly from Libya to the port in northern Germany, it requires mastering the maritime power in the eastern Atlantic Ocean. That is to say, after landing in the British mainland, it is enough!

The oil fields there were only after the war began, but now, it is not possible. Moreover, Italy is still the big brother now. If you know there is endless oil there, you will definitely tear up the original agreement and will not admit that it has been given to Germany.

So, how to solve the existing dilemma in Germany?

"I thought of two ways," said Cialek. "First, use our rich gold reserves to defeat Britain and France, expand our oil import share from Romania!"
