"Is it only the oil-producing regions of southern Iran that will not be given to the Soviet Union" Adolf Hitler quickly picked up on Hersmann's words, and he asked: "Are we going to give the rest of Iran, as well as Afghanistan and India, to the Bolsheviks?"
"Leader, this is a condition for the USSR to join us in the world war, and we cannot give nothing."
Hersmann explained, "But at the moment Stalin will not join, he must want to wait and see."
Otherwise he would not have put forward conditions that are absolutely unacceptable to us" "He didn't want to attack Britain and America with us at all," Adolf Hitler interrupted, "I know very well what he thinks, he wants us to fight Britain and America to the death, and then make a surprise attack while we are exhausted, and take everything into our hands" Hitler probably guessed that Hersmann thought that Germany and the Soviet Union were too close to each other, and that from a geopolitical point of view, it would be difficult for two powerful and bordering countries to become friends, unless there was a common enemy.
For more than 20 years, the Soviet Union and Germany were hostile to the Entente led by Britain and France, which is why there was such a long period of cooperation and honeymoon period.
But with Germany's victories on the Western Front and the Mediterranean, the Entente bloc had collapsed, France was on the verge of complete submission to Germany, and the British Empire was in jeopardy.
Since the factors that caused Soviet-German unity no longer exist, it is only a matter of time before the Soviet-German side turns against each other.
However, sooner or later, the Soviet Union and Germany turned against each other, but it was of decisive significance to Germany.
If peace between the Soviet Union and Germany can be maintained until Germany has nuclear weapons, Germany will naturally win.
If it can't be delayed for that long, then it should at least be delayed until Germany swallows the big cake of the Middle East.
With the abundant oil resources in the Middle East, Europe's huge industrial potential can be fully realized.
In this way, Germany will be undefeated in the future confrontation with the United States and the Soviet Union.
"Leader, precisely because the Soviet Union is a very dangerous potential enemy," Hersman said slowly, considering his words, "we should now try to pacify and delay the outbreak of war as much as possible."
Because we need time to dismantle the British Empire and digest the spoils of war that we have received from the battlefield.
Whether we can win future wars with the United States and the Soviet Union depends to a large extent on how much we can leverage Europe's industrial and demographic superiority, and this in turn depends on how much resources we can obtain from the Middle East, Africa, and India.
Therefore, our main task now is to continue to dismantle the British Empire, and then swallow and digest the resource-rich territory that originally belonged to the British Empire, and in the process avoid a large-scale war with the Soviet Union. ” Speaking of this, Hersmann glanced at Field Marshal Schleicher, another big leader of the "pro-Soviet faction."
Schleicher was in charge of the military administration, and war mobilization was also part of the military and political work.
As a believer in Ludendorff's theory of "total warfare", Schleicher was well aware that the economy of the European Community had not yet fully transitioned to wartime, and that even Germany's own industrial potential had not been fully realized.
The main reason limiting the industrial potential of Germany and the European Community is the lack of raw materials, especially oil.
Because this is the era of mechanized warfare, if there is not enough oil, Germany will not be able to operate even if it produces several times as many tanks and planes.
Moreover, Germany is now trying to expand the size of its navy and air force, which requires a lot of fuel consumption, and the warships of the navy are all oil tigers, and training and sorties must burn a huge amount of oil.
If Germany were to maintain a combined European fleet that was larger than Japan's, it would have to be prepared to supply the fleet with millions of tons of oil every year.
According to the plan of the German High Command, from 1942 onwards, the scale of aircraft commonly used by the Air Force and Naval Aviation will increase by 300 per month, and by the end of 42, the scale of common aircraft of the Luftwaffe and Naval Aviation will exceed 10,000.
The so-called "commonly used aircraft" is actually the concept of a combat unit, and behind a commonly used aircraft is by no means only one aircraft, but there are various elements that can support an aircraft to take to the air for combat.
The most critical of these is not the aircraft but the pilots, according to the regulations of the Luftwaffe and naval aviation, the number of pilots in each aviation regiment should be 15 times the number of aircraft commonly used.
This means that there are 10 pilots who can fight, and at the same time there are 5 pilots who are training or serving as instructors in training groups or who are on leave to recuperate.
This means that if the number of aircraft used by the Luftwaffe and naval aviation were to exceed 10,000, there would be at least 15,000 pilots, and this does not include those who participated in training or served as instructors in the various flight training schools.
Considering that at the moment the training requirements for German pilots are very strict, and the training time is also very long.
The total number of pilots of all levels behind the 10,000 commonly used aircraft is certainly more than 30,000.
Therefore, the amount of fuel that needs to be consumed each year is also an astronomical amount "Leader," Schleicher began, "oil has become a huge bottleneck now.
We now have to expand our navy and air force on the one hand, and on the other hand, to maintain the basic needs of the member countries of the European Customs Union.
The consumption of oil and synthetic gasoline in 1941 was planned to be as high as 22 million tons.
And our synthetic gasoline production can only reach 6 million tons, oil production including Romania, Poland, Western Ukraine, Hungary, Baltic and other places of crude oil and shale oil produced in Estonia, the total is only more than 6 million tons, and we also plan to import 3 million tons of crude oil from the Soviet Union, so the gap is 7 million tons, which needs to consume nearly one-third of the strategic oil reserves."
Hitler looked at his henchman Goering, and the fat man was equally opposed to turning against the Soviet Union now.
He told Hitler: "My leader, if there is to be a war with the Soviet Union, the army will need a large number of tanks, armored vehicles and trucks, which will have to consume a lot of fuel, and the consumption of fuel will probably exceed 30 million tons a year, and the amount obtained will drop to 12 million tons because it can no longer be imported from the Soviet Union."
In this way, the shortfall for a year will increase to 18 million tons, and our current reserves will only last for a year and a few months. ” Hersman went on to conclude: "Only when the steady availability of oil and synthetic fuel exceeds 36 million tons will we be able to go to war with the United States and the Soviet Union at the same time and ensure victory" He reported almost three times the amount of oil and synthetic fuel that Germany had steadily acquired in World War II.
For Germany, which controls most of Europe's productive forces, the production of tanks, planes and even warships is not a problem, but it is fuel that really limits Germany's strength.
And considering that the United States produced more than 200 million tons of oil annually in World War II, the 36 million tons obtained by Germany is actually not much at all.
"Perhaps we can settle the USSR first, with the United States remaining neutral," Hitler said.
"The Soviet Red Army behaved very badly against the Poles and Finns, maybe we can solve the USSR in a very short time, for example, in a few months" "There is no such possibility," Hersman said in an extremely firm tone, "that the Americans will soon intervene in the war, and in fact they have already intervened in various ways."
Weapons and equipment were given to the British, escorts for British ships, and volunteer pilots were also provided.
Many of the pilots we captured in the Mediterranean were Americans, and with our victory in the Mediterranean and the collapse of the British Empire, the United States would certainly become further involved in the war.
Direct entry into the war is only a matter of time, and we should not have any illusions about it.
And it is equally an illusion to expect a solution to the USSR in the short term, even if the Soviet Red Army is far inferior to ours in combat effectiveness, but before the resources of the war are exhausted, the Bolshevik Party will still choose to fight.
And in order to compete with us for world hegemony, the United States will definitely use their huge industrial power to continuously transfuse blood to the Soviet Union.

In this way we would have fallen into a lasting attrition in the vast and cold lands of the USSR.
If we want to win without nuclear fission bombs, we must first gain naval supremacy in the Atlantic, thus cutting off the Soviet Union's access to foreign aid.
And the premise of seizing sea supremacy in the Atlantic is to defeat the British and American navies" First the United States, then the Soviet Union, this is Hersmann's consistent line, who made the United States the world boss in later generations, and the Soviet Union mixed into Rosneft "Defeat the United States" Hitler shook his head again and again, "This is more difficult than defeating the Soviet Union, what if the Soviet Union stabs us in the back when we are in a fierce war with the United States, Stalin must think so now."
"It's not that hard to defeat the U.S., actually," Hirschman said, shaking his head, "and if we're going to land on U.S. soil and occupy New York and Washington, it's going to be very difficult."
We should not lose sight of the courage and determination of the American people to resist foreign invasion, and it will not be easy to defeat tens of millions of troops armed to the teeth on the beachhead of the East Coast of the United States.
But we don't need to do that, we don't need to go to the United States, we just need to defeat the United States at sea, establish a forward base in Canada to fight against the United States, and then turn South America, the backyard of the United States, into an anti-American base for our Germany, and put the United States surrounded by us and our allies, so that the United States will lose its world empire" t1706231537:
