Vanelk came here mainly to help the German army and the Southern Army in Florida establish their own military industrial system and help them solve the problem of producing weapons on their own
“The construction of the military factory is currently in full swing. Once the machinery and equipment from Europe arrive, our military factory will be able to start producing various weapons, including firearms, bullets, artillery and shells, by next month at the latest, that is, before the end of this year!”
Vanelke has extremely strong funds in his hands, and has also gathered a large number of elites from all walks of life. These people were all brought to Florida by him at this time to help Model gain a foothold here.
With the help of these elites, the German army was able to build its own military factory in Florida faster than expected and solve the problem of production and supply of its own weapons and equipment.
With sufficient weapons and equipment, the German army will have the capital to expand outward and fight out as soon as possible. After all, all the weapons in their hands now need to rely on the supply of the European headquarters. Once the sea routes are cut off, they will be unable to continue, let alone take the initiative to fight out, even defending their own one-third acre of land will be difficult!
Hearing Vanelke’s words, Model breathed a sigh of relief
“If the weapons problem is solved, then the restrictions that restrict the Air Force from carrying out strategic bombing will be gone. At that time, the Air Force will send a bomber unit to be stationed here permanently, and continuously bomb all parts of the United States, spreading panic and despair on every inch of American land, and letting the American people feel what cruelty is!”
After Model tasted the sweetness once, he had an inexplicable trust in the strategic bomber unit of his own air force!
The great victory in the Battle of St. Marys made him realize that with the participation of the air force, their army could achieve the greatest victory at the lowest cost.
Moreover, the air force ignores the obstacles of terrain. The ultra-long combat radius and ultra-fast flight speed make their deterrence range far beyond the traditional army.
They can fly thousands or even tens of thousands of kilometers in just a few hours, causing a large number of casualties in places where the army cannot reach, greatly undermining the enemy’s war potential and combat confidence!
Therefore, Model very much hopes that the Air Force can send a bomber unit to be stationed in Florida to help them fight against the Eagle Sauce!
However, this idea is difficult to achieve, because Florida is currently unable to produce the various weapons and ammunition needed by bombers, including aerial bombs, incendiary bombs, ground-buster bombs, etc., not to mention the latest weapons such as thermobaric bombs!
If these things cannot be produced, the bombers will have no bombs to use, and they will… Then it will be useless!
Moreover, in addition to weapons, the fuel needed for aircraft operations is also a thorny problem, which also troubles the German army. The
German army currently has 7 armored divisions.
Among the troops that have landed, there are more than 3,000 tanks, in addition to more than 2,000 armored vehicles and 15,000 trucks!
With so many vehicles, the fuel consumed in a day during combat is as high as thousands of tons.
During the Battle of St.
Marys, the German army burned more than 50,000 tons of fuel, resulting in the German army’s fuel reserves.
Therefore, after the US army retreated, the German army was unable to carry out a large-scale pursuit.
It just symbolically attacked the north for a while, and then it was over!
At present, the German army’s inventory of various weapons and ammunition is still relatively sufficient, but their gap in various fuels is getting bigger and bigger. After all, in normal times, various vehicles are also running, and as long as they are running, they need to consume fuel!
Therefore, the most urgent problem for them now is actually the fuel crisis.
“The fuel problem is not difficult to solve. When I went south this time, I brought all the exploration data of Mobil Oil in the south. It contains the oil distribution and reserve data of all areas in the 15 southern states of the Eagle Sauce, including the data of local oil fields and mining in Florida. These should be very helpful for you to mine oil and build new refineries to solve the problem of fuel shortage!”
Vanelke’s lurking in the Eagle Sauce for so many years has obviously not been in vain. Through the acquisition of Mobil Oil, he has mastered a lot of information on several oil-producing states in the south of the Eagle Sauce, and has also established a complete database, which records in detail the data on the distribution and reserve quantity of oil in the Eagle Sauce.
With these data, the German army does not need to look for oil everywhere like a headless fly!
“Great, you are indeed my savior, and your information is really timely!”
Before Model even opened his mouth to mention this problem, the other party had already helped him solve it, which made Model very happy, and his attitude towards Vanelk immediately became more enthusiastic!
“Don’t be too happy, I haven’t finished talking yet!”
Seeing Model’s excitement, Vanelk smiled and then poured a basin of cold water on him.
“Uh… do you have anything else to say that shouldn’t be said?”
“Go to hell with you, what shouldn’t you say? It’s something you don’t want to hear, right?”
“If it’s bad news, then I really don’t want to hear it, so can I not listen to it?”
In front of his old friend, Model rarely pretended to be stupid and joked with Vanelk.
“Not listening doesn’t mean the problem doesn’t exist. If you are willing to listen to me, I think your previous idea is very good. I can send a telegram to the Führer, asking him to send more bombers. At that time, your air strike capability will be further improved, much stronger than it is now!”
Model’s eyes lit up. Vanelke’s position in the Führer’s heart is not inferior to his. As a senior official who has been lurking in the enemy camp for so long and has made great contributions to the empire, it is natural for Vanelke to be valued!
Apart from anything else, just his control and planning ability over Goldman Sachs Group, his position after returning home cannot be low!
After all, the German army occupied so many areas in Europe, and there are so many companies and assets in so many countries that need to be integrated and then operated. For this kind of thing, Speer is not the most suitable candidate. Vanelke is obviously more suitable than Speer!
So once Vanelke returns to the empire, he will definitely be reused by the Führer!
In this case, the Führer might really consider what Vanelke said seriously, and maybe he will really agree with his suggestion!
“Oh? Tell me, what do you think?”
Mordel’s expression became full of interest. He saw a hint of ambition in Vanelk’s eyes!
“The local oil in Florida is relatively scarce, so extracting oil in Florida not only has limited output but also is very costly. So my suggestion is not to extract oil in Florida, but to march westward and take over this place!”
