Chapter 90

December 2, 1936, Christmas Eve.

Hess, the leader of the Third Reich, held a grand marshal promotion ceremony in the ruling government.

Almost all the senior cabinet and military leaders of the Third Reich attended the promotion ceremony.

Since the collapse of the Second Empire, there has never been a marshal promotion ceremony. This has made the generals of his empire look forward to it.

As the saying goes, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. And a general who doesn't want to be a marshal is also not a good general.

The generals of the Third Reich had an almost irresistible desire to become marshals.

This has almost become the obsession of many generals.

Although, only two people were promoted and became marshals this time. However, it gave other generals hope.

Now that someone has been promoted, it means they will also have a chance.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the promotion ceremony officially began.

General Bromberg, Chief of Defense Staff, was promoted to Field Marshal. Admiral Raeder, commander of the navy, was promoted to marshal.

In addition to the two people who were promoted to marshals, a large number of generals from the army, navy and air force were promoted to generals.

For example, the three heads of the Air Force, General Milch, General Kesselring and General Speller, were all promoted to generals. You know, a few years ago they were just colonels.

It only took a few years to be promoted to general, which was already as fast as a rocket.

"Gentlemen and generals. Marshal Bromberg has been working hard for the Wehrmacht for more than ten years to make the Wehrmacht stronger. His contribution can be seen by everyone. Therefore, I decided to promote Bromberg to Marshal!"Hess announced in public

"Bang bang bang!"Suddenly, there was warm applause in the hall.

The other generals looked at Marshal Bromberg with envy. As for jealousy, there was no such thing.

As the chief of defense, Marshal Bromberg made Everyone is very clear about his contribution. Almost everyone believes that this marshal is well-deserved.

However, this also makes these generals feel hot. They also hope that one day they can also be promoted.

"Your Excellency, thank you. I swear to God that I will spend my life serving the Third Reich and making our country strong."Marshal Bromberg's eyes were filled with tears.

Being promoted to marshal was an affirmation for him and he was greatly moved.

Hess nodded:"Marshal, I believe you will do it."

Subsequently, Adao announced the appointment of Navy Commander General Rael as the Navy Marshal.

Marshal Raeder took the marshal's scepter in his hands with joy.

"Marshal Redl has made great efforts over the years to revive and strengthen the navy. In recognition of his merits, he was promoted to marshal of the navy. I hope Marshal Redl can continue his efforts and lead the Navy to victory!" Hess said

"Bang bang bang!"

Everyone cheered again.

Although, compared to Marshal Bromberg, Marshal Redl's contribution seems not enough.

But Marshal Redl is loyal to Hess. So, Hess will naturally not be stingy in giving. He has the rank of marshal.

This also allows more generals to understand this.

That is to show loyalty to Hess. In this way, they will have a great possibility of obtaining the rank of marshal in the future.

The Third Reich has two more There are a marshal and a large number of generals, which makes the generals of the National Defense Force very excited.

They undoubtedly see their own upward path. This will make them work harder in the future. It also makes more generals willing to Hess's allegiance.

At least for now, under the leadership of Hess, the Third Reich is becoming stronger. And this is exactly what these generals want to see.

After the time enters 1937, Franchise The civil war is still raging.

In the shipyards of the Third Reich, the warships built for the Woolly Bear Alliance have also begun work. A large number of various resources shipped from the Woolly Bear Alliance have enabled the industry of the Third Reich to develop rapidly.At the same time, the Third Reich’s national strategic reserves are also rapidly taking shape.

In the Sirte Basin in Libya, North Africa, the Third Reich’s oil experts and workers, under the protection of the military, are exploring for oil here. After a rough exploration, they have locked some areas. Next, they will focus on exploration. According to the reports of these oil experts, the probability of finding oil fields, and large oil fields, is very high. To this end, the Third Reich has planned Build terminals and lay oil pipelines in the coastal area north of the Sirt Basin. After the oil fields are found, the oil there can be extracted and transported to the port through pipelines, and then transported directly back to the country by cruise ship, or to the Kingdom of Caesar.

Although it is undoubtedly a bit risky to start these infrastructure construction before the oil field is found.

If the oil field is not found in the end, wouldn’t these constructions be in vain?

But Hess is extremely confident and convinced. Oil fields will definitely be found in the Siirt Basin.

Under his support, even among the cabinet and the military, some people still had doubts. However, Hess's order was still carried out.

Hess had no choice but to do it. We must seize the time.

Building docks and burying pipelines all take time.

If we wait until the oil field is found before starting, I am afraid it will be too late. Hess hopes that after the oil field is found, it can be exploited in the shortest possible time, and then Transport the oil back to the country. In this way, the Third Reich will be able to obtain a large amount of oil from the oil fields in North Africa before the war breaks out in the future. Even if the oil fields are bombed after the war breaks out, and even the shipping lines are cut off, the oil It could not be transported back to the country.

However, the Third Reich had enough oil reserves before, enough to last until the day when the Third Reich won the victory on the battlefield, or had an advantage.

Therefore, Hess had to race against time, as fast as possible to transport North African oil back to the country and further increase the Third Reich's oil reserves.

All in order to win future wars. Even some people don't understand and think Hess is crazy. But Hess persisted. He believes that when the day of victory comes, everyone will be convinced.
