Battle of the Third Reich

Vol 5 Chapter 361: engine

After getting up in the morning, the head of empire went to the garden of the Prime Minister’s Palace for a round of steps as usual. After taking a shower, he put on a clean and neat uniform, and then wandered to the restaurant in the main building for breakfast. As always, the restaurant is already filled with clerks and officers from the headquarter base camp, and the food here is the most top-notch in Berlin.

Twenty chefs and 40 service staffs, led by two top German chefs, provide high-quality catering services for more than 600 staff in this mansion 16 hours a day. The restaurant consumes more than 2,000 eggs a day, and the transportation vehicle of the logistics office transports all kinds of fresh meat, seafood and fashionable vegetables from various places from the train station and the airport every day. The head of empire is a qualified foodie, and this attribute has been firmly engraved on Xu Jun's soul.

After frankly accepting the triumphant victory of more than two hundred people, Xu Jun's solemn expression, with a steady pace, came to his exclusive dining table. This table is located in the middle of the restaurant, and a circle of space is created around it, so that the diners can see the situation in the restaurant at a glance.

Except for a small commander's flag standing on the table to show identity, the rest of the furnishings are no different from other tables in the restaurant. Xu Jun sees two people standing beside the dining table, waiting for his empire's head.

"Good morning, General Weiller, General Dole." When he walked to the table, Xu Jun took off the cap on his head and handed it to Disenhofen behind him.

"Good morning, my head." Weiler nodded.

"Good morning, my head of state." The former head of state's personal adjutant, the current commander of the Berlin garrison, Hans Dole respectfully bowed to him, and a gold star badge on his shoulder had a shiny star emblem.

"Please sit down, gentlemen." Xu Jun stretched out an elegant hand to signal the other side to sit down, and Disenhofen hurriedly opened the seat for him.

"Thank you, go for breakfast, Eric." Xu Jun ordered to the adjutant.

"Yes, my head of state." Disenhofen agreed, and after nodding to the two generals present, the young adjutant turned and walked towards the table that belonged to him.

"Wait a minute for me to meet Schillach and Bobbert, it will take about thirty minutes." Xu Jun unfolded the napkin beside the plate.

"Bobert? Your newly appointed national leader in agriculture?" Weiler asked casually.

"He is also the acting minister of the Ministry of Food and Agriculture, and I plan to get him right next month." Xu Jun said with a smile.

At this time, the waiter pushed the dining car that had been prepared, and the three waiters quickly brought the head of state and the two generals to them in advance.

"For your health, my head of state." Weiler raised the hot milk in front of him.

"For victory, for Germany." Xu Jun lifted the cup at hand.

"In order to win, my head of state." Hans was a bit sloppy, but finally kept up with the rhythm of the two.

Hans Dole was specifically called by Xu Jun, and Weierle was a frequent visitor to the breakfast table of the head of state. This treatment really envied a group of colleagues. The problem is that this man has won the new appointment of the head of state. People have no way to take him, they can only hide in the corner and bite the handkerchief with jealous red eyes.

Xu Jun summoned Hans to come, in addition to connecting with his feelings, he mainly wanted to discuss with this loved one. About the preparations for his inspection at the army training ground near Berlin next week, he will still be there. A small-scale military parade will take place, when the Berlin garrison troops will also select a group of elite troops to participate.

After breakfast, Weierle accompanied Xu Jun to the office, and Hans stayed in the lounge to rest, waiting for Xu Jun's call.

"The air defense tower project in Berlin? I ordered it to be cancelled." Xu Jun stopped, this is the passage for the exclusive head of state, and on one side is a row of tall glass windows, where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Prime Minister's Garden .

"This project is a waste of resources. What we need to build now is a complete air defense early warning system. We should invest all funds and materials in more important projects. The headquarters has long concluded that heavy air defense firepower cannot be fixed at A place where it is easy for the enemy to find loopholes in the defense line and find opportunities to take advantage of. We want to move these anti-aircraft guns to quickly maneuver to the direction where each enemy will appear, and at the same time be able to interact with the air defense radar system As well as the cooperation of the Air Force fighter forces, our goal is to reduce the burden of the imperial air defense units as much as possible." Xu Jun was a little emotional. As a model in Hitler's bunch of head-slapping plans, he almost missed the project. .

Germany’s giant anti-aircraft turret has been proven by history. It is completely a wasteful and useless gadget. If this thing is really so magical, why would Hitler and Fatty go into the air raid shelter for three days, how could a large urban area of ​​Berlin be The explosion was messy.

"However, at present, the threat of local air defense is not great. Our current defense focus will be shifted to the eastern border, and an efficient air defense network will be established in the eastern airspace. At present, the number of large-caliber anti-aircraft guns is far from enough, so I have been repeating We must increase the production capacity of Rheinland Steel and Krupp, and we can subcontract some orders to manufacturing plants in France and the United Kingdom. If possible, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark, and Norway can all participate. I hope that by the end of this year You can see the result before." Xu Jun backed his hands and looked at the greenery outside the window.

"According to the original plan, the number of Air Force fighter units will be expanded by at least half by March next year, but the current situation is not optimistic. This issue will be specifically discussed at the regular meeting of the headquarters. The research and development of new aircraft also It needs to be accelerated, and the technical cooperation with the UK should be strengthened again. I am very dissatisfied with the current research progress. Since the British have provided a full set of technical drawings, they have also sent experts to guide them. Why are Mercedes-Benz and Henschel until now? I haven’t been able to come up with a finished product yet. If they continue to hold on to their pile of technology, I will consider whether to hand over the order to the British for production.” After that, Xu Jun stretched out his hands and wiped the clothes and The non-existent dust turned around and looked at Weiler.

"I will order Odin's Eye to closely monitor the situation in these departments and report to you as soon as any problems are found." Weierle quickly answered in a hurry.

Thanks to the blessings of the former thief, the British most advanced engine technology almost fell into the hands of the Germans, and even included some secret models still under development, some of which even Churchill did not know.

Xu Jun has a deep understanding of British engine technology. In the history of Britain, the technological level in this respect has always surpassed the whole world. When Ross Royce was put into production as an artwork-like griffon engine, the wealthy American It's just blindly stacking cylinders there repeatedly.

It can be said that the development of American wartime engines is completely inseparable from the technology supported by Britain. Regardless of whether it is air-cooled or air-cooled, British goods are renowned for their reliable performance and excellent manufacturing. The famous products produced in the United States and Germany are actually rough imitations of British engines.

Germany finally took a new path with its own invented technology. Judging from the overall performance, the German aero engine seems to be comparable to the same level products of the United Kingdom and the United States. However, with the passage of time, the German engine occupied the initial stage. Some advantages gradually began to lose. In the later period of the war, the performance of the product was far behind by the opponent. This result made people feel sighed.

The reasons behind the German engine's backwardness are complicated, not only because of the design. There are many factors that restrict the explosion of the German engine. For example, the most basic point is that the material technology. Germany lacks rare metals and cannot mass produce high-quality alloy steel for key engine components. Both in terms of wear resistance and high temperature resistance, Can not be comparable with similar products in Anglo-American.

The German engine is completely relying on the ingenuity and solid foundation of the designers, using some advanced design and unique structure, trying to make up for the defects in the material, which can narrow the performance gap between the British and American products.

However, these problems no longer exist. Germany can obtain a lot of much-needed raw materials from European countries and overseas colonies. The material problems of core components will no longer trouble German designers. With the acquired British technology, Xu Jun firmly believes that the crown of the world's strongest engine will sooner or later fall on the head of the German Empire.
