Chapter 305 Huge sensation!  “Is oil really dug out?” Mussolini couldn’t help but said out loud when he heard the report from his subordinates. Deep down in his heart, he actually did not believe that oil would be dug out. You know, it is an endless desert with a harsh environment. And they have occupied the colony there for decades. The result? We have tried so hard to dig out the oil, but now someone else has dug out the oil. Isn't this a big joke? However, at the same time, he also harbored a secret hope in his heart that oil could actually be dug out. That’s tens of billions of barrels of oil! It can be said that Mussolini has been suffering from this kind of worry about gains and losses for this period of time.

Now, the dust has finally settled and oil has actually been dug out. "Yes, according to preliminary estimates, there are about a billion barrels of oil, and in the future, there will be at least tens of billions of barrels. As for the specific number of barrels, more engineers need to be dispatched for exploration, but it should be similar to the data provided by the other party. "Ciano tried hard to hold back the excitement that was almost bursting out of his heart, and began to describe the situation of this oil field in as much detail as possible. In any case, one thing that is now certain is that the oil fields really exist. Thirty billion barrels of oil! Even if they only get 15 billion barrels in the end, the families involved will still be rich. Even if they can only get a small part of it, it is undoubtedly an astronomical sum. After all, these days, anyone with one hundred thousand pounds can be considered a rich man, and billionaires are as rare as a feather. "Thirty billion barrels of oil. This is really a big deal. I really didn't expect that the other party would have such courage." Mussonelli couldn't help but sigh with emotion. "Based on current oil prices, it is worth almost tens of billions of pounds. This is a huge amount of wealth, enough to increase our national defense strength several times." "But next, we must immediately increase the number of troops stationed in the colony and strengthen the military power there. In addition, we must increase the construction of infrastructure and put the oil fields into production as soon as possible." "Only in this way can we truly hold this huge wealth firmly in our hands and provide solid support for the development and strength of the country." Mussonili's eyes were firm, as if he had seen the glory of the country's rise due to this oil field. future. "Yes." Ciano responded quickly. From the bottom of his heart, he admired Mussonelli's ideas. But it would be even better if his family could also make a fortune. Because he is not the only one with such thoughts. Many people hold on to this. Because these families have already purchased a lot of oil refining equipment. Most of the oil refining equipment on the market was bought out, and a batch of equipment was even purchased in Germany. The purpose is to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune.

As for what Mussolini said, just listen to it, because the biggest buyer is his family. "Your Excellency Prime Minister, there is another problem, that is, there is no oil refining equipment on the market." Upon hearing Ciano's words, Mussolini was stunned for a moment, and then looked at him in disbelief. He naturally knew what this sentence meant, but he didn't expect that these people under him didn't care about the interests of the country at all, and all they thought about were individuals. Taking a deep breath, Mussolini said in a cold tone. "Then go to other powers to buy equipment. No matter what, we must put the oil fields into production in the shortest possible time." "Yes." Ciano wanted to say something, but did not dare to continue, so he could only nod in agreement. But he knew that this purchase would be a long way off. Because the benefits this time are so great, the families behind these people will definitely not give up such a big cake. On the other hand, Germany was also ecstatic when they learned of such a large oil field. They didn't expect it to be true. Even William, who provided the information, was rewarded. Permissions have also been elevated. William took this opportunity to ask about the plans for the super bomb. "How do you know about the super bomb?" At this time, after Marshal Keitel heard William's words, his first reaction was that someone had leaked the secret. Otherwise, how could an intelligence officer know about such a top-secret plan? Looking at Marshal Keitel's expression, William's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that the plan was true. Otherwise it wouldn't be this expression. Thinking of this, William felt that Cun Yunsheng was really scary. No! In other words, he felt a little bit scared about the organization behind it. This kind of plan that only a few people knew about, the other party actually knew about it. "I know it from a person." After speaking, William briefly described what Cun Yunsheng told him. Hearing this, Marshal Keitel remained silent. He did not expect that the other party, who was far away in the Far East, would actually know about the super bomb plan. "Are you sure it's true?" After a long time, Marshal Keitel asked. "It's true, the oil this time is the coordinates provided by the other party, otherwise..." William said with a wry smile. Upon hearing this, Marshal Keitel was completely silent, not knowing what to say for a while. "Marshal Keitel, this plan..." William asked cautiously.

"It's true." Marshal Keitel nodded, and then said again. "According to the views of those physicists, it is no problem to destroy not only one city, but half of the city. However, this research is too expensive and it will take some time to complete it." "According to what you said, the research progress of the United States is definitely faster than ours. They have accepted many of our physicists." Marshal Keitel didn't say the rest of the words, but the meaning was clear. "You can look for that inch again and ask him to provide more detailed information. As for the price he needs, you can agree to it, as long as it is not too excessive. Now it seems that it is possible for us to cooperate with him." Marshal Keitel once again He spoke. "Yes." William did not expect that this so-called super bomb plan would be so serious. The super bomb plan is still being discussed here, and the discovery of oil fields in the desert once again shocked the world. First among them was the British Empire. The first reaction is that it is impossible. This is a scam. How is it possible? Oil fields have just been discovered in Persia. And then oil fields appeared in the deserts of North Africa? This is definitely a trap. But it soon became clear that this was really not a trap. Because Germany and Italy sent a large number of engineers and workers, and purchased oil refining equipment everywhere. In particular, Vichy France's oil refining equipment was directly packed. Not only that, but the oil refining equipment of other countries that remained neutral were also packed up. Now the British Empire completely believed that all this was true. At the same time, the news of oil being dug up in North Africa was like a thunder exploding in their hearts, triggering a series of complex and profound thoughts. For the UK, this is undoubtedly worrying news. They are well aware of the strength of Germany's military power. Once it has sufficient oil resources, German aircraft, tanks and warships will be able to gallop on the battlefield more unscrupulously. Britain is worried that Germany will use this advantage to increase its influence on the European continent and pose a greater threat to its allies. Especially the Soviet army on the eastern front, they are now in a stalemate with the German army. Now with the oil fields, the potential of the German army became even greater. Fatty Qiu was thinking anxiously about what to do. At present, the only way the British army can deal with it is to continuously contain the German army. But the British army's method is the navy. If it cannot be contained externally, it can only increase investment in its own military industry and strive to achieve new breakthroughs in weapons and equipment to make up for possible strategic disadvantages. In that case, military spending will have to be increased.

Now the military expenditure is very huge, and the emergence of a large number of counterfeit currency has put their economy on the verge of collapse. Continuing to increase military spending may cause even greater chain reactions. But without increasing military spending, the German army has become stronger. The war continues to drag on. How to fight this? Continue to sell your father's land? Seek close cooperation with other Allies to jointly formulate more effective strategic arrangements to curb Germany's expansion momentum? It seems like this is the only way to do it. Now only the US military has this strength. Thinking of this, Fatty Qiu made up his mind to continue selling his land. Isn't it just selling land? What a big deal! The British Empire, with its great family and great business, didn't care about this. On the other side of the ocean, the United States was equally shocked after learning the news. You know, the United States is definitely the strongest industrial power at this time. At the same time, we are also well aware of the decisive role of oil in the war. They realized that Germany's digging up oil might prolong the war and increase its cruelty and uncertainty. "So, we must now adjust the direction and intensity of assistance." This is Marshall's view. His views are shared by many people. Because they all know that once Germany slows down, the war will continue. Therefore, they must increase their assistance to the European battlefield, including providing more weapons and equipment, material resources, and military personnel. "Well, you're right." Luo Wheelchair, who was in the middle seat, agreed. "Not only that, our industrial production must also be accelerated to meet the huge material needs of our allies against Germany." Hearing this, everyone was worried, because they all knew that Germany had discovered oil, which was really like the sky falling. "We should move the entire Atlantic Fleet to the Mediterranean." Someone suggested. "In that case, how should the German submarines be contained?" These words made everyone silent again. Because the German submarines were very rampant.

"The number of warships is still not enough. The speed must be increased again. The losses on the Pacific battlefield are also very heavy. Warships are needed everywhere." Marshall said again. "Didn't Stilwell do a good job in Indochina? Let him find ways to continue to expand his results in Southeast Asia and hold back Japan. We may have to change some strategic directions. We must not let the German army expand its influence on the European continent." Luo Wheelchair spoke. "yes." Romania has re-examined its global strategic layout and devoted more attention and strength to the European battlefield to maintain world peace and stability. In other words, if the German army continues to expand its influence on the European continent, it will affect their post-war situation. To put it bluntly, the interests in the Far East battlefield are nothing to the United States. Everyone in the conference room is worried at this moment, because they are all American elites. They also know that oil is the "lifeblood" of modern warfare. Germany's discovery of oil fields means that its war machine will gain stronger power. With oil, Germany will rely on its rich oil resources to further strengthen its air force and launch more violent bombings on the British Isles. In this way, the British army will be under great pressure, and they may definitely give up and choose to surrender. This is absolutely not allowed! The United States will never allow the British Empire to surrender. Because in that case, how can we fight? At the same time, the German army armored forces may become more unscrupulous due to the abundant supply of oil, completely wiping out the Soviet army on the Eastern Front. The current Soviet army can barely sustain itself because of the support of the US military. Although they are far away from the direct threat of the European battlefield, they are also clearly aware of the serious consequences of Germany's possession of oil. This may slow down the Allied advance in the European battlefield and increase the costs and risks of the US military's participation in the war. They worry that Germany will use new oil resources to strengthen its submarine force, threaten Atlantic shipping routes, and cut off material support to its European allies. "Fat Qiu's phone number?" Luo Wheelchair was stunned for a moment when he heard his subordinate's report, and then picked up the phone. "Don't worry, we will expand the scale of the Lend-Lease Act. Next, our supplies will be given priority to Europe. Yes, the British Empire must persevere. The final victory must belong to us." Luo Wheelchair knew that at this time, he had to boost morale and give Fatty Qiu some confidence, otherwise, the other party might really fail. "Find a way to dispatch three divisions, not five infantry divisions, and two armored divisions to the British Isles. We must help them boost their morale. They must not surrender." Luo Wheelchair ordered immediately after hanging up the phone. Everyone knows that the British Empire must not surrender at this time, otherwise it will be really doomed. So no one has any dissatisfaction with the other's decision. … "Oil has really been dug out." Cun Yunsheng looked at the information sent and couldn't help but shook his head. It was really fast. This is the foundation of the great powers. If it were him, he wouldn't know where to get the equipment and the exploration team.

"Sir, will this have a huge impact?" Meng Fanlie naturally knew that the coordinates of the oil field must have been given by Cun Yunsheng, otherwise how could the German army have such a huge oil field. "What impact? It's just to extend the lives of the German army." Cun Yunsheng sneered. In addition to industrial strength, it is population, which is also a measure of war heritage. At this moment, the German military's human resources are almost reaching their limit. If the fight continues, there will even be production problems in the rear. (End of chapter)
