Chapter 54

"Your Majesty, the Gauls have retreated and we have won!"Admiral Bromberg reported to Hess,

"Very good, it seems that the Gauls are just as we imagined, and they don't dare to confront us head-on." Hess said with a confident smile on his face

"Your Excellency, since the Gauls have chosen to compromise this time. Then, after the first time, there will be a second time. We should be able to let them continue to compromise in the future." said Paul Goebbels

"Yes!"Hess nodded.

He clearly remembered that in another time and space, the Sun Never Sets Empire and the Gallic Kingdom were constantly making concessions and concessions to the Third Reich until the war broke out.

They wanted to divert trouble to the east. Let the Third Reich attack the Woolly Bear Alliance, and let the Third Reich and the Woolly Bear Alliance fight to the death. Both sides will suffer. But the final result is to shoot themselves in the foot. Mustache directly signed a non-aggression treaty with the Woolly Bear Alliance. , then turned around and swept across Western Europe, defeating the Gallic Kingdom in one month, and at the same time began a large-scale bombing of the Empire on which the sun never sets.

"Your Excellency, will the second phase of military expansion continue?"Admiral Bromberg asked.

After all, the Gauls have already compromised, so there is no need for the Third Reich to be so urgent in its military expansion.

"Of course, continue to expand the army. After the military expansion is completed, we will test the Allies again. When the time comes, march towards the Rhine Demilitarized Zone. This is our territory, how can we not have our troops stationed there?" Hess said

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"Admiral Bromberg nodded.

The existence of the Rhine Demilitarized Zone is indeed a shame for the soldiers of the Third Reich.

Their own land does not allow their own soldiers to be stationed, but is controlled by foreigners. After the rise of the Third Reich, it is natural to send troops into the Rhine Demilitarized Zone to end this state.

Of course, this is undoubtedly another test of the Allies.

However, it is a risky bet with the mustache from another time and space. This time is different.

The Third Reich in this time and space is well prepared. After expanding the army to 800,000, it is enough to deal with all problems.

The return of the Saarland has plunged the entire Third Reich into a carnival.

Organized in various places The celebration parade was not only a celebration of the return of the Saarland, but also a celebration of the rise of the Third Reich. The

Third Reich, which had been oppressed, could finally say no to the Allies! In

February 1935, Hess attended The Wehrmacht Army Conference was held.

Previously, Hess proposed the reorganization of the army organization. The current Third Reich Army still uses the army organization from the last world war. Many weapons and equipment are also used from the previous war. Weapons and equipment.

For example, the Mauser 98K rifle used by infantry has been used for decades. Although it has been improved, its performance and power are still very good. However, this is an old rifle after all.

In the next war, Infantry must have strong firepower. Therefore, Hess began to lead the reform of the army.

On the one hand, it was the reform of the weapons and equipment used by the army, and on the other hand, it was the reform of the organization.

The current infantry of the Third Reich Army The squad consists of ten people, one noncommissioned officer and nine soldiers, divided into a three-man machine gun team and a six-man rifle team. The squad leader carries a submachine gun and has two submachine gun magazine pouches. Each pouch contains three 32-round bullets. magazine.

The machine gunner carries an MG34 general-purpose machine gun and a 50-round magazine belt or drum. The secondary shooter carries four 50-round drums, a 300-round ammunition box and two spare barrels.

The third shooter carries Two 300-round ammunition boxes and a Mauser 98K rifle.

Each soldier in the rifle group carries a Mauser 98K rifle and 90 rounds of ammunition, as well as two to three grenades.

Such firepower was already considered in the early days of the war Very good, at least better than most countries. Especially Lao Maozi, he was even more beaten.

However, in the eyes of Hess, this is not enough.

Under the instruction of Hess, the Army has commissioned Mauser Company has developed a semi-automatic rifle. It is expected to be mass-produced within one or two years. By then, a large number of semi-automatic rifles will be used to replace the 98K rifle. You must know that the

98K rifle is a single shot and has a limited rate of fire. Semi-automatic rifles can often fire forty rounds per minute during combat.

In addition, the infantry squad is also equipped with a grenade.

A grenade is a weapon that is simple to manufacture and not technically complex. But it is an excellent infantry support weapon on the battlefield.

In another time and space, the Third Reich and the Eastern Kingdom were equipped with this weapon, and it performed extremely well on the battlefield.

Now Hess is equipped with a grenade in the infantry squad , further strengthening the infantry's firepower.
