Chapter 39

In the south of Bavaria, in the middle of the fence of H-1, the secret military base of Germany, a gate was slowly pushed open by more than a dozen soldiers. A new Mercedes Benz waiting on the side of the road slowly started and passed through the open gate.

Commander goodrian, the co pilot of the car, pointed to the open space in front of him. He turned to akado in the back of the car and said with a smile, "in a moment, we can see with our own eyes that the tanks cooperate with the air force's assault exercises, which I have carefully prepared for you."

"There are a truck of intermediate officers of the national defense forces in the back. That's all I can find. There are also more than a dozen technicians from military factories. You should prepare this exercise for them, not for me! It's the officers who pay for it and the engineers who make weapons. I'm just a nobody

"Poof Pooh." Gustav sitting next to akado? Krupp said with a smile: "as vice chairman of the great German Party, I have to seriously tell you that you are the top leader of our party, and you are not an insignificant person."

"Here are 60 150 mm guns and 90 88 mm antiaircraft guns, all of which are of the latest design. They can be towed and transported by mules, horses and cars. I promise you with my life that the weapons here are all the most advanced in the world." Krupp looked at akado and laughed. He patted his chest on the shaking car and advertised his weapon: "when the French have one shot, we can fight back twenty."

"How's the secret weapons section going?" Akkado crossed his fingers and looked at goodrian. He was more concerned about other things than artillery. For example, the national defense forces (IDF) had only recently equipped a few tanks.

"There are 30 P-2 combat vehicles. I assigned the tank drivers who came back from studying in the Soviet Union to five combat vehicle platoons in turn for practice. Now many people are waiting for their own tanks. There are too few tanks we secretly equipped and the delivery is too slow." Goodrian took a look at Krupp and said helplessly.

It's really too few. There are 30 tanks and 6 tanks in a platoon. Each tank can only be used by three people (one commander and gunner, one communication technician and one driver). These 30 tanks can only allow 90 armored soldiers to use their own equipment.

Krupp shook his head and snuffed out goodrian's desire for more tanks: "Colonel goodrian, do you know how much the IDF paid for man's factory? Less than 90000 Deutsche marks! The money can't even sell the wheels of a tank! For heavy artillery tanks, the national defense force owes me and man a total of 700000 US dollars. Every time I provide you with a cannon, I have to pay tens of thousands of dollars! "

He looked at a helpless face of akado, spread his hand and said: "this is only part of the reason! We need to avoid the eyes and ears of the joint arms control commission! They can only start work in the middle of the night and dare not use large machinery, which increases costs and limits production speed and output. I'm a big family and a big business. I've got a loan from the United States, but man is miserable. These days, they are being collected by Swedish mines! Because they are still in debt. "

Akado can't spend too much money to buy weapons. After all, several companies in his hands also need to develop. Although these companies eventually became Super enterprises in history, akado doesn't dare to divert too much money now. He is afraid that these companies will miss the development opportunity and eventually be destroyed by him.

Historically, Hitler's regime made up part of its financial deficit by slaughtering Jews and confiscating their property. However, akkado did not dare to do so openly at this time, and his grand German party program also required him not to do so.

Akkado had to sigh and came up with what he thought was the best solution: "Krupp, you give me a list and I will inform Gestapo to start. First, these people must be rich; Second, industrialists are not allowed to appear on the list. I only deal with pure capital speculators. "

Krupp nodded. Akkado wanted to make up for the economic deficit. Although this method is very informal and unfair, it is really a way to make up for the financial deficit quickly.

As far as he knows, akkado even connived at the IDF's private exploitation of coal mines in Ruhr Industrial Zone and sold them to France and Sweden at the reserve price to appease some of France's grievances and paralyze senior French officials. The money was paid to the private users of senior German generals. On the surface, it was no different from their corruption, but the money was secretly concentrated by Gestapo, Additional military expenditures for the national defense forces.

There was no other way for akkado. The 90000 German marks he paid Krupp were intercepted by embezzlement of public funds. He used his power to extract a little egg white from every fried egg of the soldiers' breakfast. The saved egg white was sold to a nearby restaurant, and then he got 90000 German marks of "small money".

Akado even played the trick he saw in an unknown book. He ordered many commercial ships under the national defense forces to "deliberately lose their chimneys" when they went to the ports of Sweden and Denmark, and then bought good copper chimneys locally and transported them back to China as copper raw materials. This clumsy method was used to make up for the control of the Allied arms control commission over the German defense force's reserves of copper raw materials.

He also ordered to monitor all the communication calls of the coalition arms control commission, intercept the letters between them, conduct secret checks, and arrange soldiers to monitor all members of the coalition arms control commission 24 hours a day. He even improved the interception plan to avoid the last forced killing of a magistrate.

Despite such and such restrictions and obstacles, the national defense forces have developed and grown with the joint efforts of sikat and akkado. As of January 20, 1924, according to the German top secret document "the memorandum on the implementation of the Hades plan", Germany has 300000 regular army members, 110 up-to-date aircraft, 17 destroyers and 30 tanks in secret reserve. Of course, this army is still very weak. Its neighbor Poland has more than 600000 troops at this time, twice as many as the German national defense force. However, if we look closely at the composition of the German defense force, it is really frightening. With the efforts of akkado and sikert, more than half of the soldiers in the German defense force have a high school degree or above, and a quarter have graduated from university. This unit has a paratrooper reserve of 2000 people, 4000 soldiers who have directly used or received training in using tanks, more than 1500 soldiers who have been on gliders, and more than 300 soldiers who have actually simulated high-speed air combat in the sky of the Soviet Union. What's more terrible is that in the 15th and 22nd divisions of the national defense forces, 17 people have applied for scientific and technological patents, 94 have published papers on artillery, tanks, aircraft and other professional equipment, and a total of more than 3300 people have received air ground integrated combat training. On average, every 40 people in these troops have a radio station, 33 people can get a mechanical vehicle - including cars and motorcycles, and two people have a war horse. What's more, every soldier in this army can be competent as a platoon leader. They can shoot at least five times a day, while the weekly shooting times of their opponents Poland and France * are not up to this standard. These soldiers have undergone rigorous combat training, and every tactical action is engraved in the bone. On average, they can participate in a small-scale secret military exercise every two months. At the secret base in the mountainous area of southern Bavaria, akado spent more than a year accumulating a total of 9 million rifle bullets, 150000 of the latest 150 mm shells, and 100000 new Mauser 98K rifles for the national defense forces. Most of the raw materials used in these weapons and ammunition are smuggled from Sweden and other countries. Of course, the German defense forces have also stored 700000 tons of oil, 100000 tons of flour, smuggled 100000 tons of rubber from China, and seized the time to build a new 200 km long highway and 400 km long railway relying on the white dove project, a branch of the Hades project. Money is needed everywhere. The tight budget has driven the generals of the national defense forces crazy. It takes a lot of money to produce new weapons, to build a road and railway transportation network, and to reserve strategic materials. It takes more money to pay the army, maintain weapons and equipment, and support a large number of secret troops Research fees for developing new weapons... Akado even fantasized that he could break a cent into two. The economic sources of the German national defense forces are various. The most serious source is the defense funds given by the government, which is the familiar military expenditure; Part of the secret sources are the seizure of the property of speculative capitalists, part is akkado's Secret savings, and some are the income from exporting weapons, the benefits from secret cooperation with the Soviet Union, and akkado's private income subsidies. In any case, at the beginning of 1924, the German defense force was reborn. It now has the ability to face its neighbors alone, defeat Poland and even challenge France. Ryan revealed to acardo privately that if he collides with French forces head-on, he is confident to command the 15th division to break through the defense line of any French army. When akkado collected his thoughts, he had already sat on the auditorium of the exercise. More than 20 new tanks lined up on the school field. With the infantry carried by trucks and armored vehicles, they launched an attack on the established target. They released smoke, advanced and retreated with evidence, and soon won the target area. In the process, two biplane planes swept over at low altitude, Dropped two stones to simulate air support. In the applause, the soldiers began to shout the name of akado: "akado! Akado Then, under the leadership of the officers, they chanted a louder slogan: "long live the great Germany! Long live victory Akado stood up, stood at attention, saluted, and answered loudly to the cheering soldiers below: "long live victory! Long live the great Germany
