Everyone thought that the war had ended and the most leisurely place should be the Supreme Command under the head of state.

Unfortunately, the busy situation here is even more busy than when the war in Britain started in full swing.

Countless documents were sent here, and then classified and processed by the secretary and officers at all levels, and then classified and sent to Marshal Kettle.

Germany's eastern front is really a very large armed group. There are 200,000 Italian expeditionary forces, as well as minions from Romania and other countries.

In addition to the 3 million German Army troops, the food consumed every day is a huge expense.

These troops were also equipped with various models of cars, a large number of carriages, tow artillery, armored vehicles, assault guns and tanks of complex models.

The thrifty German troops, from the No. 2 tank to the most advanced No. 5 Leopard tank, are still equipped in the hands of various armored units.

The artillery troops are even equipped with many 150mm caliber howitzers transformed with No. 2 tank chassis, as well as the famous Staker tank destroyer.

Of course, the ones with the most equipment are still the same things, No. 3 assault gun, No. 4 tank, and Trailer Tank Destroyer.

It can also be easily seen from here how important the tank destroyer pioneered by the First Head of State is. In just less than a year, it has become the backbone of German armored forces.

Because the battle on the Western Front has ended, countless planes have to be transferred from the Western Front to the Eastern Front. Germany has maintained about 5,000 aircraft of various models all year round, and now most of them can fly to the Eastern Front to participate in the war.

There were about 700 ju-52 transport aircraft, 1,500 FW-190 series and me-109 series fighters, and more than 1,700 ju-88 bombers and ju-87 Stuka flew to the east.

Every day, everyone can see groups of planes flying over their heads, and the number is so large that everyone can't count them clearly.

The number of aircraft on the Western Front has been reduced from about 5,000 to about 1,100. It goes without saying how much power has been saved in between.

Germany's original disadvantage of more than 3,700 aircraft on the Eastern Front was suddenly reversed, and the number of aircraft soared to such a terrible value of 7,600.

Historically, when Germany operated in Barbarossa, it had about 5,000 aircraft. Li Le is obviously much stronger now than in history.

First, he won the Battle of Britain, and the victory allowed him to save at least 1,000 aircraft.

Secondly, he controlled some of the UK, defeated the UK, and allowed him to reduce the number of fighter jets in France, and also allowed him to draw about 500 more aircraft to participate in the war.

Finally, Sperer's industrial coordination improved Germany's production efficiency, which allowed Germany to have a total of 1,000 aircraft to fight.

With so many aircraft, Li Le's Air Force combat effectiveness can definitely be described as amazing.

His plane is much more advanced than his opponent's planes, and his pilots are much stronger than his opponent's pilots.

"In order to solve the logistics supply problem of attacking the Soviet Union, we built the supply station too far..." Keitel pointed to the map and introduced the current border situation to Li Le.

The distribution of materials and troops is planned according to offense. If it is temporarily changed to a defensive mode, the losses may be even greater.

German troops are so suitable for attack that it is too wasteful to make them defend. A large number of troops are equipped with high standards, and retreating at this time is likely to create chaos.

If the Soviets were aware of it and suddenly crossed the border and started attacking, the German border would fall into a desperate defeat.

Li Le looked at the map and didn't know whether he was good at attacking or turning to strategic defense was more in line with the current situation.

There is no longer a history he is familiar with to learn from. He now has to rely entirely on his own judgment to guide the development of the Third Reich.

History has long been beyond recognition. If history was still there, history still had three points of inertia. Then when Britain surrendered, history broke away from its original trajectory and headed for a fork in the road that Li Le had no idea.

Previously, Li Le planned Barbarossa completely based on a series of repairs made in accordance with historical inertia.

However, this war was suddenly advanced due to the Soviet Union's reaction and the fall of Britain, which made Li Le's series of improvements and repairs lost their original meaning.

"If the Barbarossa plan is implemented in advance, will it lose control in the end?" Li Le stared at the map and asked Keitel.

When Keitel was stunned when he heard the question of the head of state. He didn't know why this problem made him feel uncomfortable, but his instinct made him feel different.

Then, the German marshal realized the key to the problem. Even before the operation to invade Britain was not optimistic about, the head of state sought his opinion without asking for his opinion in an inquiring tone.

Thinking of this, Keitel realized that the head of state had no certainty in winning this war beyond the plan.

Immediately afterwards, the German marshal felt relieved - God blessed, who can be sure to win in such a war that will devote all the whole country to the fate of the world?

"My Head! Start the offensive plan in advance. Our offense will lose momentum near Smolensk. This is something you have known for a long time." Keitel was not easy to answer, so I can only say that everyone has deduced the answer countless times.

Li Le nodded and suddenly spoke to Keitel, "Then we will implement the Barbarossa plan as soon as possible, and fight to Smolensk, and then to Smolensk!"

What is this? Kettle thought to himself. He just signed the "English-German Armistice Agreement" on March 8, but on March 10, he decided to enter a state of war again?

In other words, the Head of State fulfilled his commitment to the people of this country: if you defeat Britain, you will usher in peace. Unfortunately, peace has come, but it has only been two days...

What a irony, the good head of state that the people loved began to brew a new war on the third day of the armistice.

However, as a marshal, the content of Keitel's answer became: "My head of state, with weak attacks, will be subject to fierce counterattacks."

"Now we have more than 700 transport aircraft in our hands, and more bombers are responsible for clearing obstacles... The ground will be faster and the material transportation can be more." Li Le was more optimistic because he knew that the Barbarossa operation that had never happened.

Knowing that plan, when he was planning the new Barbarossa plan, the data provided to the staff members was much more harsh than everyone optimistically estimated.

Many people believe that the Soviet troops were not very combative and would be defeated and surrendered after losing a lot of vitality.

But Li Le knew that even after he reached the city of Moscow, Stalin and his troops had no intention of surrendering.

Stalin even issued an order to execute all retreating commanders and soldiers who gave up their positions.

It was the first time that Germany experienced scorched earth policy and cruel street fighting in the Soviet Union. How terrible it was.

"To prepare Blauxiche, we must start the offensive before the Soviets launched an attack..." Li Le and his aide Keitel actually had a consensus on this.

Kettle even had the same idea, including Blauchic, Guderian, Manstein, Lundstedt, Weix, etc.

Everyone believes that rather than having an invaded righteousness, it is better to launch an attack first and more in line with the traditional advantages of the German army.

Instead of breaking Poland and even Romania into ruins, it is better to directly attack the Soviet Union and fight comfortably on the vast plains of Ukraine.

Driven by this idea, the top leaders of the German army were generally willing to take the initiative, and Li Le was also prepared to launch the Barbarossa plan in advance with such an idea.

At this time, on the developed highway in Germany, cars were speeding one after another, transporting as much material as possible to the front line.

In the sky, transport aircraft are not simply a transition. They also shoulder the task of transportation and transport as many aviation bombs stored on the Western Front to the Eastern Front to participate in the war as possible.

The road was also uneasy, and war horses and bicycles became the protagonists here. The tall horses and bicycles were loaded with daily necessities, as if they were suddenly dragging time back to World War I.

The busiest thing is the railway line, where a large number of newly produced tanks were transported to the East Line, and the carriages were filled with new recruits who were going to report to the East Line.

While everyone was still celebrating the arrival of peace, the Third Reich's transportation system was driving at full capacity and making final preparations for a new war.

The oil exported from the Libyan Games arrived in Italy and Greece more efficiently because it did not have the threat of enemy attacks.

Countless refined oils were sent to the front line, driving Germany's unprecedentedly powerful armored corps and air forces, ready to fight a life-and-death battle with an equally powerful enemy.

The new Barbarossa faces a plan of great thunderstorm that may not exist in history. The power that both sides have hoarded on the border has been mobilized, and the battle seems to be about to break out.

"My head of state, then, what day should the attack be launched?" Keitel, who knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, asked the head of state standing in front of him.

Li Le thought about it and ruled out the few days he was about to start the war, and he could only launch an attack within a week at the fastest time.

So the head of state spoke slowly and gave a specific action date: "It's timely scheduled for March 20! On that day, implement the Barbarossa plan!"
Chapter completed!
