"Colonel, we're here!"
When arriving at the General Staff Headquarters in Hamburg, Colonel Mainz found that the atmosphere here was relatively tense.
The German military camp in Hamburg seemed empty compared to when he left. Mainz did not react at first and rushed to Hinden. When I entered the Marshal's office, I realized what this meant. After all, hundreds of thousands of troops had been laid off, so it would be strange that the military camp was not empty!
"came back?"
Marshal Hindenburg looks much more haggard than he did a few months ago. The old marshal's energy does not look very good. The thick dark circles under his eyes and the tired look on his face make people very worried about his health. situation
"Army Colonel Mainz von Levinsky reports!"
Mainz straightened his chest and paid a military salute to the old marshal meticulously.
"Haha, didn't you meet any beautiful girl on the road who stole our colonel's heart? Sit down and talk!"
The old marshal laughed and joked. Mainz was embarrassed and blushed for a rare moment, but he didn't explain anything. The explanations were all redundant. The old marshal was just making fun of him and didn't really care about this issue. Sure enough, Marshal Hindenburg waited for him to sit down and then spoke:
"How are things going in North America?"
Marshal Hindenburg did not ask about Mainz's affairs in Mao Xiong and the Far East, but directly asked about his experiences in North America.
This does not mean that the old marshal did not understand what happened in Mao Xiong and the Far East. It can only mean that the old marshal did not understand what happened in Mao Xiong and the Far East. Just pay more attention to things in North America
"The plan went very smoothly.
With the help of Goldman Sachs, we have successfully entered the most promising automobile industry in North America.
In the future, the automobile industry in North America will usher in a golden development period of ten years.
During this period, as long as our technology continues, Lagging behind other car manufacturers, I am confident that we can use Hans' craftsmanship to build a better performing product and earn more activity funds for the Empire!
Hindenburg nodded, indicating that he understood.
"I read your telegram and understand your plan, but I want to ask you, are you sure that this secret plan to infiltrate Chen Cang will succeed?"
Marshal Hindenburg trusted Mainz very much, so he did not interfere too much with his plan. However, he had to ask questions about some things in the plan that made him uneasy.
What Hindenburg said The darkness of Chencang actually refers to Mainz's use of North American automobile factories to secretly develop and produce armored vehicles and tanks for the German army, accumulating technical experience for future armored tactics of the Third Reich.
According to history, it spread to the world in 1929.
After the economic crisis, the economies of all countries were greatly affected, and the Weimar Republic was no exception.
A large number of workers were unemployed and social unrest led to great changes in the country's political power.
Mustache began to come to power, and after Mustache came to power, He immediately abrogated the Treaty of Versailles, not only refused war compensation, but also wanted to massively expand the army, restore Hans's national defense force, and completely break through the various restrictions on the German army in the Treaty of Versailles.
From now on, the German army will be lifted in at most fifteen years. Restrictions have begun to develop and produce their own weapons such as aircraft and tanks!
But the accumulation of technology takes a lot of time. If the German army does nothing now, then their technology in tanks, armored vehicles, etc. will lag behind Europe and the United States. and other countries, after all, these countries are not restricted by the Treaty of Versailles. They can develop and produce these weapons as they wish!
In order to prevent the German army from having a huge generation gap in weapons and equipment, from now on, they must find every way to start developing them! These weapons try their best to keep up with the world's trends. Once the treaty is abrogated in the future, the technologies they accumulated before will be able to come into play immediately!
During World War II, the importance of aircraft and tanks was unquestionable. It can be said that these two weapons are the most important weapons in land warfare, so they must be developed more intensively.
As for aircraft, it is not bad, because the civil aviation field will develop rapidly in the future, and civil aviation passenger transportation business will appear between countries. The German army can secretly carry out relevant research and experiments under the guise of developing civilian aircraft. As long as Britain, France and other countries do not find conclusive evidence that the military has intervened in these matters, their plans will not be discovered.
But tanks. This aspect is not that simple. After all, no one will use tanks as transportation vehicles, so it is difficult to produce tanks in the country.
Hans's local area is not large, and there are not many factories. The production of tanks requires strong technical support. That's fine. The Allies only need to conduct regular random inspections of relevant factories to easily learn about the German army's small moves. Therefore, they cannot place their tank production and research and development centers in their own countries.
Therefore, one of the purposes of Mainz's visit to foreign countries this time is. Find a suitable place to secretly study tank technology belonging to the German army
"I have considered the security factors. So far we have only three options. One is to cooperate with the red bears. The red bears are isolated by all countries in the world. The Allies even strongly supported the generals of the White Army in an attempt to overthrow them. , if we propose to cooperate with them at this time, I believe that the red bear will definitely not refuse, because currently, no country in Europe except us will leak or transfer these technologies to them!"
Hindenburg nodded. The situation of the red bear is worrying. Under such circumstances, it is of great significance to them to get the support and recognition of a major European country. Therefore, the basis for cooperation between the two parties is actually very good, but He knew that Mainz rejected the idea after the on-site inspection, which made Hindenburg curious. He didn't know why Mainz did this.
In Hindenburg's view, although the red furry bear is an Eastern European country, it is far away.
Hans is not too far away.
Compared with other areas, it is on the edge of Europe after all.
Therefore, if we cooperate with Mao Xiong, the exchange of technology and personnel between the two parties will be easier.
After all, the transportation in this era is not that big.
It is particularly developed.
So far and for a long time in the future, there is no trans-Atlantic route.
Even if there is, based on the safety of current aircraft, the safety of this route is difficult to guarantee at this time from Europe to North America!
The only way to travel to Europe from North America and North America is by cruise ship.
The cruise ship takes about 8-15 days to sail at sea.
Cruise ships in this era still have a relatively high accident rate when sailing at sea.
In 1912, something like the Titan even happened Due to a catastrophic shipwreck like the Nick, the R&D center is located in North America.
The distance is too far and the journey takes too long, which will make it difficult for them to exchange the latest technology.
However, Mao Xiong does not have this problem. The speed of the train is relatively slow, but no matter how slow it is, it can still be reached in two or three days. Compared with the transatlantic route, this speed is undoubtedly much faster, and the railway technology of this era is relatively mature and safer. Shipping costs are much higher!
So, why did Mainz not consider the furry bears even though the conditions are the best?
