The Frenchman made the road this time. When two cargo ships from Italy arrived at the Port of Toulon with crude oil compensated for the French, the French Navy's position also relaxed with the positive news.

You see, human beings are so shameless: they cannot be awe when they are beaten, and they cannot be surrendered by exploitation, but as long as they get the benefits, many people will be willing to stand up and sell their country.

Of course, even if the interests are considered are small, the Vichy French regime has to consider how to live.

The overseas colonies of France now remained almost neutral in good faith, or surrendered directly to Britain.

In this one-sided situation, the domestic economy in France is naturally not much better.

What's more, France has to compensate Germany for huge war reparations and pay to support the German army stationed in France.

With internal and external troubles, the situation of Vichy's French government was not very good. Although Li Le's arrival made this situation very much change.

First, Li Le improved the relationship with Vichy France and arranged small-caliber howitzers and other small-caliber squads to France for production.

In-kind goods can be used to offset the default payment, and Li Le gave a very favorable purchase price - this has immediately relieved the pressure from the French government.

This time, giving priority to the French oil dividend to France is also a bold diplomatic attempt made by the Axis powers.

Although I didn't get much oil, this was the first time that the Vichy French government had gained additional benefits after following the Axis powers.

It was precisely because of this interest, and a pioneering way, that allowed the French Vichy government to finally break their idea of ​​not participating in the war as much as possible.

Although the French were still cautious, they just dispatched fleets to ensure the safety of French transport ships on the route between Tunisia and France.

But you should know that this transportation line belonging to France is in front of the route between Libya and Italy, and is closer to the British H fleet in Gibraltar.

Once the British fleet enters the Mediterranean and tries to cut off the maritime routes of the Axis powers, the first thing they have to face is the French route.

Fortunately, the H fleet had just lost the battleship of the Determination and would not enter the Mediterranean to hunt for a while. At the same time, Malta is now German, with 20,000 Italians stationed on it and more than 60 German aircraft.

At least, Li Le happily waited for the French's kindness, and the French fleet had already made its own attitude, at least providing external alert and guarantee for the Axis routes.

"The Air Force has been having a good time in Malta these days?" Li Le has become accustomed to his empty office these days.

This huge room made Li Le gradually discover the advantages: the lighting is good and he can "take a walk" in the office.

Now, in this huge office, Gorene sat on the sofa with a proud look on his face, playing with a diamond from Italy.

Germany is far from being exhausted at the moment, so Goering is not in a passive state of fighting.

Now he attacked from all directions and had just won the Battle of Malta, so he was naturally proud.

His paratroopers performed as strong as ever in Malta, and the oil benefits he received also allowed Gorene to receive a dividend from the state.

Oil resources are national strategic resources, so naturally, Gorene and the Head of State cannot handle it privately.

Under this premise, the state will use the purchase price to acquire the oil in the hands of Li Le, Goringhimlehes and others, and regularly provide money and other wealth like dividends.

This time, at Goring's own request, he used this huge diamond to pay for the oil dividend. Goring likes luxury goods, so he has been carrying it for the past few days.

"Of course, my head, we dropped countless bombs in Malta and destroyed the British defenders." Goring was indescribable when he mentioned Malta.

By mastering this important island in the Mediterranean, his oil industry has achieved basic security. If this is not worthy of his compliment, then nothing is worth it.

He laughed as he answered: "Our troops suffered very minor losses, only a few planes were shot down, and less than 2,000 people were lost."

Li Le also heard about the victory process of Malta. Rather than saying that the German paratroopers were wise and powerful, the Italian landing troops were very courageous, it would be more appropriate to say that the British gave up Malta by themselves.

As a time traveler from the 21st century, Li Le knows the remaining power of Britain now. The British really can't afford much troops to compete with the Germans in the Battle of Malta.

It is one thing to have an early advantage, and it is another thing to really win. Malta's victory also inspired Li Le very much. This is the first battle he planned since time travel.

"Can the Air Force bombs consumed by Malta be replenished in a short period of time?" Li Le did not continue to lie on Malta's victory, but instead targeted the British Isles.

Goering was also preparing for the Battle of Britain. Although his air force had drawn some to Italy, most of these troops began to concentrate in northern France starting yesterday.

Germany has prepared powerful forces beyond history for this world's largest aerial invasion war.

It includes 1,500 bombers of various models, 350 Stukas, 700 me-109e and 270 fw-190 fighters, and 150 me-110 twin-engine heavy fighters are also provided.

Thanks to the good news of Libya's discovery of oil, there are hundreds more German fighter jets than in the same period in Britain in history.

A large part of these extra aircraft were drawn from various places, and only the fw-190 fighter jets came from increased production.

Li Le's purpose was to assemble such a powerful air force to destroy the British air defense system as much as possible when he was still familiar with his opponent.

Li Le did not intend to use small fuss to waste his advantage in knowing the enemy's military deployment. It would take him a few days to completely destroy the air defense network in southern Britain and force Dowding to move the northern reserve team south.

As long as these British air forces are annihilated, he will be able to gain air supremacy over Britain, and there is no need to waste precious V2 missiles to engage in expensive city attacks.

Compared with German aircraft of the same period, only the number of me-110 fighters has been weakened because a large number of me-110 fighters are undergoing modifications and being converted into night fighters.

"My head, you have nearly 3,000 fighter jets gathered in northern France and Norway. These troops are elite with practical experience and have no power in the world to compete with such a powerful aircraft group." Goering was full of confidence in his troops.

In fact, he was the same in history. Even with important factors such as radar, the Germans were still comparable to the British Air Force.

The elite German pilots even gained advantages in some regions for a time until the head of state ordered revenge on bombing London.

"The bomb factory has a new wartime working system, so the ammunition produced is enough for us to consume." After a pause, Gorene answered Li Le's concerns about ammunition.

He also added questions about oil: "In addition, with the future supplement of Libyan oil fields, the strategic material department has agreed to move out 10% of the oil reserves to strengthen the air force's oil distribution."

Today, Goering has more dominant power than in the same period in history.

Because in 1940 in another time and space, he did not have the support of Libyan oil fields, allowing him to arrange and add aircraft to perform missions at will.

"Let the pilots hurry up and train and identify all aviation targets as soon as possible!" Li Le said nervously to Golin.

This is the second time that he emphasized that the troops must destroy the target in the first wave of attacks, because if the British changed these bases and radar stations, his "invisible intelligence department" would not work anymore.

Therefore, only by exerting all your strength to destroy radar stations, airports, and those disguised fighter aircraft production workshops can we achieve the goal of suppressing the British Air Force in a short period of time.

"I understand, head of state! I have emphasized discipline. When the reconnaissance forces confirm the targets you designated, we will distribute photos and let the attack aircraft team allocate the targets." Golin solemnly answered Li Le's words.

He had already believed in the information in the hands of the head of state. For the sake of oil and money, he certainly would not doubt Li Le's statement.

So compared to the doubts at that time, Gorene now chose to believe in Li Le, and believed in the targets that Li Le determined were indeed very important.

"Continue to accumulate strength and strive to officially start the attack plan code-named Blizzard on August 1!" Li Le set the time for the new Battle of Britain. In fact, the real battle had already begun on July 10.

However, during this period, because the Luftwaffe's main energy was focused on Malta, the British Air Force was just a small fight.

"Believe me, my head of state! The Air Force will give our British opponent an unforgettable surprise on August 1st!" Goering said to Li Le.

German senior executives have temporarily set their plan to attack the UK on August 1st, because Li Le, who knows the weather, knows that the weather over Britain has been good in the short term and can last until mid-August.

The British were also waiting for the arrival of the Luftwaffe. The British Air Force commander Dowding was experienced and could definitely be regarded as a difficult opponent.

If Li Le had not mastered the invisible advantage, it would have been really difficult for the Germans to win this war, or to put it another way: Germany, which had already pointed the technology tree, has now lost the Battle of Britain!
