Imperial Overlord

"That kid is Wittmann?" At the other end of the playground, an officer with the rank of colonel hung on his shoulders, looking at Wittman standing next to the tank, and asked his deputy.

The deputy nodded, raised his chin with his hands behind his back and said, "Yes! When this school was established, the head of state personally ordered him to report here..."

A tank passed in front of the two officers, with choking smoke and a deafening noise.

After all, this is a giant tank weighing 41 tons. It is difficult to intuitively imagine the effect of driving it, which is similar to the feeling of a giant truck whizzing past you.

After the tank drove past, the officer's eyes still fell on Wittmann in the distance, and at this time the other two members of Wittmann's crew had turned and walked to the other side.

"How could the Führer be interested in such a small person?" The officer took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out and stuffed it into his mouth.

The adjutant behind him walked over to him, lit the lighter in his hand with a crisp click, and lit the cigarette in the colonel officer's mouth.

"Huh!" He let out a breath of smoke, and the officer squinted at Wittmann who was standing in the distance looking at his tank, and asked, "If the Fuhrer cares about him, let him be a lecturer in the teaching company..."

"When the Führer mentioned him, he asked him to go to the front line..." The adjutant said to his superior with some confusion.

"Huh?" The colonel frowned, looking at Wittmann who still knew nothing in the distance, and said to himself with some doubts: "What is this planning? curious?"

It stands to reason that if you don't care about Wittmann, how can you personally inquire about the transfer of a sergeant as the head of the state?

But if you care about Wittmann, the same problem plagues everyone: with the ability of the Führer, it is a little difficult to easily transfer to the staff, or to assign it to a certain military department or even an army headquarters. None.

Even if he wants to take the technical route and let him work in the teaching company, without leaving Berlin, he has a greater chance of promotion.

The problem now is that the head of state has asked about the promotion and transfer of this ordinary soldier, but he wants this person to return to the battlefield... This is a bit baffling.

"The Führer has seen this man named Wittmann?" The colonel finally asked after thinking for a few seconds at a loss.

"According to the troop's operational mobilization, the possibility that he has seen the head of state can basically be ruled out." Of course, the adjutant investigated everyone who came here, and he was responsible for the absolute confidentiality of this school.

Then, he opened his mouth and talked about Wittmann's seemingly simple resume: "He fought in Poland in 39 years... Nothing too outstanding..."

"Nothing too great? Be specific?" The colonel was still curious about this. After all, he felt that a sergeant caught the attention of the head of state was a legendary thing in itself.

"In the process of attacking, he completed the investigation plan very well, but he didn't have very good results." The adjutant opened his mouth and answered because he focused on Wittman's information.

He doesn't watch every person's information in detail, and remembers it in his mind. But obviously, a sergeant who was personally transferred by the head of state deserves him to see every detail in the file in detail.

After all, there are not many officers recommended by the head of state. Among the trainees in this batch, there happens to be only one such as Mitchell Wittmann...

"The most beautiful operation of his armored reconnaissance company was to occupy a village where the Polish army was stationed, killing 17 Polish soldiers and taking more than 150 prisoners." The adjutant mentioned these with a familiar meaning.

He glanced at Mr. Colonel, and finally said: "There is a Polish Combat Commemorative Medal, which was recorded once, but did not get a higher medal."

"Damn it." The colonel said with a wry smile, "I can find 300 people with such resumes in this school."

This is not his boast, everyone here is carefully selected, most of them are selected by the army headquarters such as Brauchitch.

Most of the people who can get here have a second-class Iron Cross on their bodies, and some even have a more advanced Iron Cross on their necks.

"Forget it! If you can't figure it out, don't guess, just train him normally. Be careful when selecting, don't go against the head of the state." The colonel turned around with his hands behind his back and started walking back.

His adjutant followed him and began to walk backwards. Behind them, another Panther tank whizzed past in the mud, and the tracks rolled up into a muddy patch.

"Didn't the Führer want him to go to the battlefield? Then let him go to the front line! The rest is out of our control." The colonel walked to his own office in the distance without looking back, and the adjutant stopped to look at it. Wittmann in the distance glanced at him and quickly followed his boss.

Wittmann suddenly had a premonition that someone was looking at him from a distance. He looked away from his Panther tank, looked in the other direction of the playground, and saw the backs of two officers.

He retracted his gaze, looked at the camouflage-painted Panther tank in front of him, and recalled the scene of passing over the concrete pier just now.

"What a good tank!" Wittmann commented in his heart.

…

"My Führer, this month's tank production rate is already the highest." In the Führer's office, Speer explained his production plan model to the Führer using a lot of tables.

"The production of the 75mm L48 tank gun itself has put a lot of pressure on the factory. If the production of the 88mm L56 tank gun is increased, a new production line needs to be opened." Speer reported a depressing report.

He has improved many crucial industrial production procedures in Germany, matching a large amount of material production data. However, the data itself is constantly changing, which makes his work very complicated.

The 75mm caliber tank gun should be equipped with an improved model of the No. 4 tank, and it should be provided to the artillery separately, and at the same time, it should be supplied to the Stalker tank destroyer whose production is increasing every month. The production has been increased several times.

Now, the backbone of Germany's future anti-tank artillery force can produce a full 600 barrels per month, which can be said to be a very large number.

However, this number is obviously still not enough to meet the Army's needs for this type of artillery. In Li Le and Brauchitch's future plans, more than 1,000 barrels of this cannon are to be produced per month.

You know, next month, the production of the Stalker tank destroyer is likely to create a record of 450 units under the efforts of Speer.

Therefore, most of the 75mm caliber tank guns produced now must be supplied to the Stalker production line.

But the towed anti-tank gun also needs such a barrel, and the improved No. 4 tank also needs such a barrel...

"The new tank has now been put into production. The production of the 88mm L56 tank gun must be guaranteed! You must guarantee the production of this type of artillery! Guarantee the production of the new tank!" Li Le ordered.

With great difficulty, it took him just three months to divert design concepts such as the T-54 tank from later generations to build a new Leopard tank.

As a result, due to the problem of production capacity adjustment, it will take two months or one month to be able to produce large-scale production. Isn't that a joke?

What makes Li Le even more depressed is that because of the fast chassis design, Krupp, Henschel and Porsche have all built new tank factories at the request of the German military.

And these factories are chassis production factories, and now these tank chassis factories have been ordered to start production.

After diverting some of the steel of the No. 4 tank and using a part of the strategic reserve, the No. 5 tank chassis has produced as many as fifty vehicles.

I have to admire Germany's amazing strength in industry. The tank chassis that has just been tested already has a terrifying production capacity of 50 vehicles per month.

Of course, this is also directly related to Li Le taking the lead in building a tank production workshop and preparing a large amount of spare steel.

As early as a month ago, several major tank manufacturers in Germany dispatched workers to organize a new tank production line personnel organization, so that the production can be carried out so smoothly.

However, due to the constraints of the 88mm cannon, the current production of Germany's new tank, the No. 5 Panther tank, has barely produced 45 units this month, making up a training camp.

The rest of the tanks have no tank guns, and UU's turrets can't follow up with the manufacture, which has formed a rather embarrassing situation.

Next month, in November, Germany's new Leopard tank production is expected to exceed the 100-unit mark, but the corresponding artillery production may not keep up.

This is why Li Le asked Speer to find a way to increase the production of new tanks.

"My head of state, we have now employed female workers in many positions, but the labor gap is still huge." Speer replied helplessly.

He opened a document and said to the head of state: "Many factories are against the use of female workers, and they find various reasons to prevaricate our inspection."

"Moreover, under the current situation, it is not appropriate for us to continue to increase the proportion of new workers in the factory." Speer pointed to the information in front of him, and then said: "In many factories, the proportion of new workers has risen to a dangerous value, no It should be improved further.”

"Give me the thorns of the conflicting female worker!" For the first time since the time of transmigration, Li Le had a real killing intent in his heart.
