Imperial Overlord

Taking money from someone is like killing one's parents. Although Europeans may not have heard of this old saying, they also feel the same way.

"My Führer!" Goering suppressed his excitement and promised excitedly: "Tomorrow morning, the first planes to attack Malta can take off! I will raze it to the ground!"

Now, the island of Malta is a fishbone that prevents Goering from making a fortune, traversing the line of communication in the Mediterranean like a sting in his throat.

Compared with Li Lelai, Goering wanted to get rid of this **** hidden danger so that the Mediterranean route would be truly foolproof.

"General Student's airborne troops can leave at any time. As long as the Italians' navy is ready, I can guarantee to capture the island of Malta within half a month!" The guy who had just been promoted to the imperial marshal assuredly assured.

"Of course you can do it! Marshal of the Empire! But we have to make careful plans to minimize losses and achieve great victories!" Li Le nodded in agreement.

Of course you can guarantee it! You will even take the island of Malta regardless of any loss, regardless of the cost, because the Libyan oil fields provide you with enough profit every week to make you regardless of the cost.

Thinking that Italians can take 30% of the project without doing anything, Li Le also feels very painful.

But after all, Libya is an Italian colony, and it is impossible for Li Le to directly control Libya's oil fields beyond Italy.

At the same time, the German state took 30% of the share, and this part of the money will be subsidized in future economic and military procurement.

The other 30% was divided up by German capitalists and chaebols. They got the profits that the state repaid to them, making them willing to lend more money to Li Le.

Compared with the previous 15%, Li Le took a full 5% less, and he also divided up 5% to satisfy Goering, Hess, Himmler and others.

Hearing this news, Li Le knew that he had become the most important person in this circle. As long as he could find wealth, no one would dare to question his position as the head of state.

To put it another way, no one would be willing to question that a person who can bring them riches is a fake head of state - if you question the God of Wealth, isn't it crazy?

Not only is no one questioning Li Le, but everyone will even regard Li Le as a god, even if it is not for the sake of the head of state, it must be for the sake of the banknotes, right...

"First of all, the weapons for air defense must be transported as soon as possible. It is not easy to rely on secrecy for such a big thing." Li Le said to his army commander and air force commander.

As for the German navy...they don't have much power in the Mediterranean Sea, even if Raedl wanted to get in, he couldn't get in.

However, the navy will also be the direct beneficiary of this oil field. The navy that lacks oil can go to sea more frequently, or send more submarines, which is obviously a good thing.

"As for the National Defense Forces, a regiment can be transported to ensure that the oil field will not be attacked by a small group of enemy troops." Brauchitch is still not willing to go on an expedition, but he is still willing to help with proper security work.

"One division! What I want to ensure is the absolute safety of the oil field! Don't worry about logistics, leave this to the Italians and Goering." Li Le didn't mind doing everything for Goering.

Goering was extremely positive. He nodded with a smile. If it wasn't for his ears, he would have grinned to the back of his head: "Of course, I will take Malta in 15 days!"

Although the Italians have been obstructing the Luftwaffe's plan to enter Italy, Li Le is sure that Mussolini's envoy, who now asks Germany to help capture the island of Malta, should be on his way.

To know that Germany controls Romania's oil supply, the Italians can only drink some soup. It's an indisputable fact that they are even more oil-starved than the Germans.

So when the news of the discovery of oil in their colonies is confirmed, then they really dare to use their money to ensure that the oil flows into their oil barrels.

With the help of the Italian Navy, it was not difficult for the German troops to capture the island of Malta. The problem was that the losses were heavy or light.

"If the logistical supply can be guaranteed, then I think it is feasible to transport a division to Libya." Seeing Goering's excited eyes that seemed to eat people, Brauchitch had to be generous.

After all, he has no reason to insist. The army is also the beneficiary of the oil field, and it is one of the most profitable institutions.

With thousands of tanks and hundreds of thousands of cars and motorcycles, the army's daily oil consumption is so huge that it is a headache.

If there is a new source of oil, then at least the whole army will not have to be careful about using gasoline and other petroleum products in their hands.

It's only one division, Brausch is cruel, let alone one division, as long as he is given enough tanks and fuel, it is two or three divisions, so what's the harm?

"On the other hand, it's air defense, which is also your problem, Goering." Li Le gave the benefit, and naturally he wanted to ask for something in return.

Goering also knew that the air defense was under his jurisdiction, but he had just heard the news that he was very rich, and at this time he seemed to have a lot of money.

Capitalists are willing to produce more things, and naturally they are willing to sell more things. Anti-aircraft guns are one of them, and production has always been high.

"Draft anti-aircraft guns from all over the country and rush them to Libya! The air force in various places will be filled later, how about it?" Goering gave his answer after a little thought.

"First, 50 anti-aircraft guns will be dispatched, and they will be transported to prepare for air defense. Then this number will be increased to more than 200!" Li Le instructed.

Goering nodded in disapproval. If Libya's oil production was really as high as the head of state estimated, let alone 200, even 500 anti-aircraft guns, he would have transported it silently!

"What about the alert radar? The test ones are also shipped over, and used together to see the effect!" Thinking of the radar, Li Le gave another order of his own.

They are adding materials to North Africa little by little here, from more oil field equipment, all the way to pipeline consumables, valve booster equipment and so on.

In addition to the army and various anti-aircraft guns, as well as food and drink for tens of thousands of people... Compared with another time and space, Rommel's expedition to Africa is not much smaller.

"How could it be possible to transport so many things..." The more and more people talked, they finally realized that they didn't have the terrifying transport capacity of the Allies.

They are in the Mediterranean, and they still need a lot of preparations to do. For example, set a small goal: make a profit of 100 million... er, no, build 100 transport ships first!

"Rent a French boat! Rent a Turkish boat! Rent a boat from all the countries that can be rented! Then on our own side, we must hurry up and build our own boats!" Li Le said fiercely through gritted teeth.

Goering nodded, looking like he was never dying: "Just do this, we must ensure the absolute safety of this route!"

The reporters around were watching from a distance that the commander of the army and the air force were chatting with the head of state.

The atmosphere before the three was a little weird. Sometimes they seemed to be fighting against the same enemy, and sometimes they were like three scumbags who went to prostitute together, grinning wickedly together.

But it was obvious that the atmosphere of the conversation was very lively, and they were discussing a topic that excited the three of them.

"You can't treat Libya in North Africa as a single cause! Do you understand?" Later, Li Le felt that he should draw a big pie for his subordinates.

He took Goering and Brauchitch out of the stage, walked into a quiet conference room, and said, "North Africa is an important area that we must operate!"

"My intelligence department also found an important piece of information, which is another unknown place that also hides a lot of oil!" Li Le threw out his temptation without waiting for the two to say anything.

"Pfft!" Goering, whose mouth was dry and just took a sip of water, squirted the water out of his mouth at once. He looked at his head of state in shock, UU reading www. uukanshu.com seems to be confirming that this statement is true or false.

Brauchitch wasn't much better either. Although he didn't drink water, he couldn't spit it out—but he was the one who was sprayed... Goering sprayed his pants, making him embarrassed.

It's a pity that the two marshals can't care about their manners now - because the head of state seems to have said something about another oil field just now.

"Is what you said true?" Brausch opened his somewhat dry mouth and asked.

"Where is it?" Goering didn't confirm it, but his expression was already that of "Wherever we are, we will fight to occupy it".

The saying that wealth and silk moves people's hearts has its practical significance in any era. After Li Le sighed in his heart, he laughed.

He waved his hand and said, "This is what I want to say. I must keep the location a secret because it is an enemy-occupied area."

As he spoke, Li Le tapped on the table with his fingers: "But I can clearly assure the two of you that the reserves are huge, and it is worth our investment in North Africa!"

Sure enough, it was a temptation, and it was a temptation that no one could refuse! Goering and Brauchitch glanced at each other, and in each other's eyes they could see the words "Desire to Win".

The head of state said that there is oil in Libya, and indeed there is oil here. If the head of state said that there must be oil in another place, 80% of it would be true.

There is nothing more tempting than a real temptation. And this kind of thing, the sooner you get on the scene, the more benefits you will get.

"If necessary, my head of state, the Air Force can mobilize 100 fighter jets to go to North Africa!" Goering quickly promised that this time, he did not wait for Li Le to reach out, and he cooperated to launch his own bargaining chip.
