Of course, in addition to cooperating with Mao Xiong, the other channel for obtaining supplies is Mainz's system mall.
Curiously, he opened the system store and checked it out, and Mainz breathed a sigh of relief.
There are all the daily necessities he needs, such as rice, flour, oil and other food. In addition, there are also various types of medicines, clothing and tools for sale in civilian supplies.
And there are basically no restrictions on these things. As long as you have enough funds, you can buy as much as you want.
What Mainz is most concerned about is the price of these supplies. After all, he currently only has two thousand points of funds. If the prices of these supplies are too expensive, he may not be able to afford them.
Prices in the system mall are not expensive. Take food as an example. A small amount of money can buy a ton of rice, which is enough to feed 30 households for a month. With 2,000 money points, it can almost feed 60,000 households for a month.
However, considering the population size of Hans as a whole and the number of points in Mainz's hands, 2,000 points is still a bit small. It can only serve as a relief and cannot completely solve the problem.
Fortunately, things in the system mall can also be purchased with gold or silver in the real world, or even precious metals and relatively strong currencies such as pounds and US dollars, so as long as you have enough funds in hand, these things are not a problem.
Therefore, the only problem facing Major Mainz was to work hard to make money.
After coming out of the system mall, Mainz finally remembered to check the other two rewards of the system.
He was curious about what kind of new skills the system had rewarded him with. After opening it, he discovered that the system rewarded him with a skill gift pack. This gift pack contained skills for three different arms, including the navy's submarine tactics, the air force's bombing tactics, and the army's. infantry-tank coordination tactics.
To be honest, all three tactics are quite attractive.
Needless to say about the navy, the High Seas Fleet, which the Second Reich spent decades and hundreds of millions of marks building, has now become someone else's possession and will soon be taken away by the Allies and become their spoils of war.
Moreover, in next year's Treaty of Versailles, the German navy was severely restricted. The Allies only allowed the German navy to possess six 10,000-ton non-dreadnought battleships with main gun calibers below 280 mm. In addition, the Allies also mercifully allowed the German navy to possess It has 6 light cruisers, 12 destroyers and 12 torpedo boats.
However, because of the losses suffered by German U-boats in World War I, under the requirement that the sun never sets, the Allies stipulated that the German army was not allowed to build or own submarines.
These restrictions made the German navy go from being second in the world to being ranked last in Europe and third in the world. The inability to build and own submarines completely cut off their possibility of finding another way to threaten the Allies.
However, it is impossible for the Third Reich not to develop a navy.
Hundreds of years of history have proven how passive a country with sea defenses is when facing attacks from the sea by foreign powers.
During World War II, although the British army They could not defeat the Germans on the frontal battlefield, but because of their strong naval strength, the Germans were unable to cross the shallow Sun Never Set Strait and were unable to completely eliminate Sun Never Set's resistance.
Therefore, they were constantly harassed and attacked by Sun Never Set.
As a result, a large part of the empire's power was dispersed in Western Europe and other places for passive defense.
If there had not been the problem of the sun never setting at that time, the German army might have been able to concentrate its forces and add new forces from the rear to the Soviet-German battlefield. In that case, it would most likely have rewritten the outcome of the Soviet-German war.
Therefore, it is extremely necessary to develop the navy and prepare for future attacks on the homeland.
It is difficult for large surface ships to hide their whereabouts. As long as they are built, they will inevitably be discovered. Therefore, they can only build smaller submarines that are easier to hide. The submarine tactics provided by the system can come in handy at this time..
However, the current situation is unstable. There is no possibility of relaxing the Treaty of Versailles within three or four years. Moreover, Mainz knows that there is a rising star like Dönitz in the navy, so he thought about it and finally gave up on choosing submarine tactics..
After abandoning submarine tactics, the two remaining options are the air force's bombing tactics and the army's infantry-tank coordination.
During World War I, aircraft were put into combat for the first time, and they quickly evolved into multiple subjects such as fighting for air supremacy, ground bombing, and even sea attacks. This greatly improved the air force's status in the war.
Although the level of fighter jets and bombers during World War I was not high, the aircraft technology of various countries advanced rapidly, especially heavy long-range bombers. In the later stages of the war, heavy bombers from various countries appeared one after another and played an increasingly important role in the war. Come bigger.
As a time traveler, Mainz knows very well that in the 21st century, among the three armies of the army, navy and air force, the highest status is precisely the air force with the shortest history. Whether it is the army or the navy, if they lose air supremacy, it will basically be difficult to defeat them. Survive enemy air strikes, let alone perform your role!
In World War II, the German army's dive bombing tactics were extremely amazing. It was the best partner with the armored army. Together they destroyed cities and fortresses on the European battlefield, and they were invincible.
And it just so happened that the bombing tactics provided by the system were dive bombing tactics.
This makes Mainz greedy!
But in the end, he chose the infant-tank coordination strategy!
Because he knew that the Third Reich relied on blitzkrieg to sweep across Europe, so it was the most important thing for him to enhance its armored tactics capabilities as much as possible!
After choosing the infantry-tank coordination tactic, Mainz used the rewarded skill points on armor tactics.

Seeing the skill description behind the armor tactics, Major Mainz breathed a sigh of relief.
In 1943, there were several large-scale tank battles on the Soviet-German battlefield, including two large-scale battles at Stalingrad and Kursk, especially Kursk in July 1943. In this battle, both sides invested an unprecedented scale of armored forces. Armored tactics reached the peak of the war in this year. In the decades to come, mankind has never seen a tank war of this scale again!
So this year's level can be called the pinnacle of World War II!
