In the offices of Hitler's private villa in Berchtesgaden.Holding a cup of German bitter coffee, Luo Yaoguo tried his best to sit opposite the head of state, with a smile like a spring breeze on his face, pretending that he really liked listening to the head of state's speech.
"Mr. Marshal, it seems that you haven't fully understood the harsh environment our alliance is in. Although the Soviet Union will face defeat in the near future...but this does not mean a real victory! I Those who understand Britain and France, these two colluding countries will never allow Germany and China to rise to the leadership of the world!" Adolf Hitler screamed, shaking his fist vigorously:
"I know! I know! They will definitely try their best to destroy our two great countries! Maybe they will destroy you and me physically, so that our two countries will lose their direction, or Losing the future! That's the meanest way to do it, but it's not easy given our vigilance.
... It is also possible to form an alliance to block Germany and China, just like Napoleon!This is the UK's usual measure, but that's totally useless, because the Soviet Union has been conquered by our two countries, and her resources and land can provide us with everything we want!However, the naval power of Britain and France is still strong. At that time, the Strait of Malacca, Suez Canal, Gibraltar, and the English Channel will be heavily blocked by their navies.There is no way for the German navy and the Chinese navy to join together to break the British Empire's maritime superiority!
So the best way is to send all four battleships of the Chinese Navy to Europe in the name of attacking Leningrad, plus two German battleships and three aircraft carriers... We can use them to go to Europe if necessary Smash the British Home Fleet!As long as the British home fleet is smashed, Britain will surrender and we can get everything we want!And you China can become the hegemony of Asia again.We Germany are the masters of Europe! "
Luo Yaoguo frowned and smiled in embarrassment. Hitler's plan was undoubtedly another carefully calculated gamble!Before Germany was at war with Britain and France, the six battleships of the Chinese and German navies were concentrated against the capital ships of the British navy.Although the total tonnage of capital ships owned by the British Navy is far greater than the sum of the six "Zhenyuan" class ships.The former is 55 tons, while the latter is only 950 tons.But in a real fight, it is difficult to predict the outcome!Because the six battleships of China and Germany are all new ships launched in the 24s, and their tonnage exceeds the limit of the "Washington Naval Treaty", they have better protection and firepower.
Except for the Hood, which has a large tonnage of more than 4 tons, and the two Nelson-class ships, which have a large tonnage of more than 3.8 tons, the rest of the British battleships are more than 2 tons. The protection is much worse than the six Zhenyuan-class ships!What's more, the task of the British Navy is to dominate the world, not to watch the gate. It is impossible for them to gather all twenty or so capital ships at their doorstep!So once the war starts, the British are likely to be forced to use 10 to 15 capital ships to fight against the six super battleships in China and Germany!
In this way, even if Germany's current leadership in aviation technology is not considered, the Chinese and German navies are not without a little confidence in a decisive battle with the main fleet alone.And even if it fails unfortunately, China can still rely on a strong naval aviation to maintain maritime superiority in the South China Sea, so this proposal is completely feasible.
Although he already agreed to this proposal in his heart, Luo Yaoguo's face became more and more serious at this time. He seemed to be knocking on the armrest of his chair unconsciously, and said slowly: "My head of state... is now at war with the Soviet Union. There is no victory yet, the main enemy we have to face is the Soviet Union! If we now concentrate the battleships of the two countries in the Baltic Sea, what will Britain and France think? Will they change their support for us and turn to the Soviet Union? What about an alliance? If that's the case, our cause will face the greatest difficulty! I think it is an extremely irrational act to be at war with Britain, France, and the Soviet Union at the same time."
Hitler breathed a sigh of relief, and waved his hand indifferently: "Mr. Marshal, I am very aware of your worries. But I have a way to let your warships sail to the Baltic Sea without provoking Britain and France."
"Your solution is..." Luo Yaoguo frowned and asked.
"I think you should know that the Soviet Union is about to attack Poland, right?" Hitler's eyes suddenly flashed a strange light, and he giggled: "Our Polish friends are arrogant and think they can defeat the Soviets. I know it's impossible, I believe you think so too?"
Luo Yaoguo nodded slightly, but did not speak.He also found it strange that the Poles had no reason for their self-confidence and their habit of thinking out of reality.Although the industrial strength of the Soviet Union is not as good as that of China and Germany, it still far exceeds that of Poland. The population of the Soviet Union is several times that of Poland, and Poland is a plain country with no danger at all.How could they think that they could definitely defeat the Soviet Union?Even Natalie, who has always been more rational, thinks so!
Hitler paused for a while, looked at Luo Yaoguo's reaction, saw him nodding his head in agreement, and continued: "To tell you the truth, my representative has secretly met with Stalin during this time. And I have already met with that communist tsar. Some consensus has been reached, and I will acquiesce in his destruction of Poland! An ally of the Western world is facing destruction, and Germany will not save it...Only China sent reinforcements from thousands of miles away, and of course two battleships! You said that Britain and France are here What would you do in this situation? Just because you sent two battleships, do you form an alliance with the Soviet Union? Let the Soviet Union destroy Poland, and cooperate with the Soviet Union to destroy Germany! Then they go to fight the Soviet Union by themselves? If Britain and France have such courage , They destroyed the Soviet Union a long time ago! This matter was easy in 20 or 21. Britain will only concentrate her navy scattered all over the world and mobilize it to the mainland to watch us, while France may Will take the Maginot Line to sea! They won't do anything else."
Luo Yaoguo seemed to hesitate for a while, shrugged his shoulders in confusion and said, "But do you really intend to let Poland be wiped out by Stalin like this? Without her 200 million to 300 million troops, our troops will be close to the number of the Soviet Union." So, will our war to destroy the Soviet Union be..."
Hitler gritted his teeth and sneered: "Poland will not perish, but it will not be so powerful! When Germany is advancing westward to compete with Britain and France for world hegemony, I don't want a powerful Poland to stare behind me!"
"I understand." Luo Yaoguo's expression was still a little heavy. "Then after the demise of the Soviet Union, I am afraid that we will have to use six capital ships to fight a decisive battle at sea with more than [-] capital ships owned by the entire British Empire, is that right?"
Hitler thought for a while, nodded, and smiled: "Yes, six battleships versus twenty battleships! But Admiral Raeder thinks that we will win the naval battle, because we have more advanced aircraft and are more powerful than the British. The aircraft carrier! Raeder believes that in future naval battles, aircraft and aircraft carriers will really play a decisive role. The theory that battleships and aircraft carriers jointly dominate the ocean is completely absurd. So those battleships are just used to seduce the British mainland fleet... …If they will come out, the German planes will sink them all!" The Führer began to shake his fist again, screaming: "Sink it! Sink it! Sink it all!"
Luo Yaoguo nodded slightly.Probably because they have too many battleships and are reluctant to abandon them.The so-called "the theory of battleships and aircraft carriers jointly dominating the oceans" has a certain market in Britain and the United States, two naval powers with many battleships, and France and Italy also believe in this set of theories.This theory believes that battleships are equally important naval weapons as aircraft carriers, and only when these two weapons are used in conjunction with each other can they finally win the dominance of the sea.However, China, Germany (participating as a military adviser), and Japan, who have really fought naval and air battles and understood how vulnerable battleships are under the attack of aircraft, do not believe in this theory at all.
"Okay, I can let Zhenyuan and Dingyuan come to Europe, and I can also participate in the war against Britain and France." Luo Yaoguo looked up at Hitler. "Then what can China gain after the victory?"
"Asia! The right to move freely throughout Asia." Hitler waved his stiff, outstretched arms. "Germany has no interest in the territories of Asia, and it is China's natural right to be the hegemon in Asia! The German Empire fully agrees."
"If Britain and France are defeated and surrender, Germany must agree to hand over their Asian colonies to China!" Luo Yaoguo looked directly into Hitler's blue-gray eyes, and almost said his request word by word.
"Okay, no problem, I can now sign an agreement with you on behalf of Germany." Hitler promised unequivocally.
"Also, Germany cannot declare war on the active United States under any circumstances!"
"What? Don't you take the initiative to declare war on the United States?" Hitler was taken aback, and asked back: "Why did I do that? Marshal, do you think it is necessary for us Germany to go to war with the United States?"
"What if the United States supports Britain and France to fight us to the end?" Luo Yaoguo said: "Even after Britain and France are occupied by Germany, the United States will support the British and French governments that have retreated to the colonies to continue to resist!"
Hitler hesitated for a moment, a little confused, shrugged impatiently and said: "I can't imagine why the United States would do this? Wouldn't it be good for Germany, China, and the United States to rule the world together? Why didn't they annex Canada and Australia?" , then the United States will become one of the largest countries in the world in terms of territory and the true heir to the Anglo-Saxon world empire."
Luo Yaoguo smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, I also can't think of why the United States would do that, but my intuition tells me that this situation is very likely to happen. So I hope to get your assurance that if Germany wants to cooperate with the United States To start a war, you must first obtain China's consent! Otherwise, China will reconsider its position."
"Okay." Hitler frowned, with a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes, "That's it, Germany will not take the initiative to declare war on the United States without China's consent! Is it okay?"
……
When we left Hitler's villa, it was snowing outside.Goering stopped at the door to shake hands with the guests.Luo Yaoguo walked out with the Russian Empress Anastasia at this time.He was wearing the uniform of a marshal with a long wool coat over it.The empress was in a thin and revealing velvet evening dress, with silk gloves on her hands, and an ermine shawl over her fragrant shoulders.She took Luo Yaoguo's arm, left the villa in the snowflakes, and got into a Maybach sedan with yellow and black flags that had been waiting at the side.
"Fuwen, where's your Natalie? I remember she came to the dinner with you." The queen looked around, but she didn't see the Polish beauty, and said with a sneer, "Could it be because of me, you guys?" ..."
Luo Yaoguo gave the Queen an angry look. "She walked away with Marshal Himigvi. I asked her to persuade this old stubborn one last time. They can't fight like that... You can't put 75 troops on the east bank of the Buwag River. That's courting death! The only one The only feasible way is to concentrate the 125 million troops on both sides of the Bwag River to hold on to the river, and at the same time build a solid line of defense around Warsaw and plan to hold on. Stalin did not have much time. As long as Warsaw can hold for a month or two, the Soviet Red Army will Only retreat."
"Huh, you really 'love the house, even the birds in the house'." The Queen said in clumsy Chinese.
"Hehe, it's Aiwujiwu, right?" Luo Yaoguo smiled wryly, "I really don't want Natalie to be sad. How sad she would be if Poland perished!"
"What about me? If Russia perishes, I, the queen, won't be able to survive." The queen pursed her mouth and muttered.
Luo Yaoguo frowned and shook his head slightly: "Russia will not perish, because Hitler will go to war with Britain and France after defeating the Soviet Union. He needs a stable rear, so he will not move Russia. Support Hitler in the next war!"
"Is Russia going to follow Hitler in declaring war on Britain and France?" The queen frowned, her face suddenly darkened.
"Yes, only in this way can your empire survive."
Chapter 0722 Stalin's Assault ([-]) Discovery of Nuclear Fission
Summer purple lightning pierced the blue-black sky, crossing and flashing long and short behind the Sun Yat-Sen Monument. July 1937 came peacefully amidst the suffocating heat and constant thunderstorms.
"With such heavy rain, it seems that Professor Meitner will not come here, so I should go to the research institute by myself." Wei Bojian said.A gust of cold air rushed through the open window into the hot, humid office, throwing thick raindrops onto a blackboard covered with equations that hung on the wall.Intensive showers began to fall in the street.
"At this time, I don't know if I can call a taxi?" Zeng Huayan replied.He was transferred from the Engineering Command to this U engineering committee to replace Natalie. When the Polish beauty was pregnant with her second child, Luo Yaoguo gave him her part-time job on this committee.
"I'm afraid I'm not so lucky. It's off-duty time now." Wei Bojian looked at his watch and said, "Oh, it's almost six o'clock. Guoliang, call the Academia Sinica and talk to Professor Meitner, and then call the taxi company Hang one too and let them send a car."
"Yes, sir."
Wei Bojian fastened his tie, put on a cotton jacket, and gathered the documents on the desk. "I'll have to study the numbers again. It's a little unbelievable, Guoliang, don't you think?"
Zeng Huayan shrugged his shoulders, waved his hands and said, "I'm just a civil engineer, and I've learned how to fight for a few years. I don't know anything about these things."
Wei Bojian smiled at him with a sense of superiority, "Actually, I don't understand as much as you do, why in this experiment of bombarding uranium with a cluster of particle streams, there is so much barium used for marking—far more Exceeded the amount at the beginning of the experiment? What is going on here?"
"Maybe it's a mistake?" Zeng Huayan replied inadvertently while dialing the number of the taxi company.
"Wrong? I think so too! But Professor Meitner and Otto Hahn don't think so, maybe this is the gap between me and them?"
After a while, Wei Bojian braved the rain and walked towards a taxi parked in front of the General Staff Building.A BMW-1935 limousine drove out from nowhere and stopped in front of Professor Wei.A tall, plump, beautiful Caucasian woman got out of the car. "Professor Wei—are you going to Academia Sinica? Let's go together."
"Oh! It's Leshinskaya—General! Congratulations, Your Excellency the General!" Wei Bojian smiled and gave Natalie a military salute.
"Sawahara, don't make fun of me. I am a general who is purely a joke. By the way, do you understand what happened to the experiment where the beam of clustered particles bombarded uranium?"
"I don't understand. Natalie, did you go to see Meitner about this too?"
"Well, Fu Wen was very excited when he saw this report this afternoon. He insisted that I go to see Professor Meitner immediately." Natalie said, "He thought it was a great discovery, and asked Professor Meitner to Keep going, don't give up."
Wei Bojian hesitated for a moment, "Does Marshal know physics well?"
"Physics? Understand a little bit. He has a good education, but he is definitely not at the level to be able to engage in scientific research. I don't know if he is... er, let's not talk about it this time. Anyway, he can do whatever he wants me to do. By the way, what do you think of this experiment? Is there any military use?"
"Military use... I don't know, and I haven't even figured out the principle yet."
"This—when will the principle be figured out? If the principle is figured out, can you know immediately? By the way, Ms. Wu is still working by her side now, right?"
"Of course, Ms. Wu and Professor Meitner get along very well." Wei Bojian said with a smile, "It's all about academic issues, and the two of them can often talk late into the night."
