Imperial Overlord

The so-called little investment is not so simple, because just knowing Libya's oil production is not enough, it is far from enough.

At least for Germany and Italy in the Axis powers, the Mediterranean Sea is not a safe heartland, but a battlefield full of crises!

The British controlled Gibraltar, a naval base and land fortress that gave the British easy access to the Mediterranean to fight.

At the same time, the Suez Canal was also in the hands of the British, which allowed the British supplies in places such as India and Burma to be directly transported to Alexandria.

Although the Italian Mediterranean Fleet has almost blocked the British route in the Mediterranean, its size and combat effectiveness are far from the standards that make the German-Italian route here safe.

Unless...the island of Malta can be captured. This is a place where the Axis forces have never been before. Li Le also thought about it for many days before he was determined to fight a battle that would change the future.

If the Allied forces on the island of Malta are eliminated, will it affect all subsequent African wars? This is really an uncertain factor.

At least from the point of view of Li Le, who is familiar with history, any slight change is an adventure enough to make him tremble with fear!

Because any change may determine the future direction of history, change everything he is familiar with, and obliterate his most confident and powerful advantage—the prophet!

"My Führer, investment?" Goering couldn't understand why the Führer asked such a question.

Could it be that this oil field is not a national industry, but a cake that everyone can participate in?

Li Le didn't pretend to be mysterious, and said directly: "Because this plan was initiated by me, I agreed on about 15% of the shares in advance... Are you interested in doing some deals with me?"

"What deal?" Goering, who was most interested, was the first to speak. His greedy nature gave him a natural curiosity and desire to possess all wealth.

"Capture the island of Malta and open up the sea line of communication! I want to build a military base there to ensure the safety of the lifeline of the Mediterranean oil!" Li Le said seriously.

Everyone in the room had expressions of tears and laughter on their faces. The so-called Libyan oil base had not even a shadow, yet he decided to fight for this oil field.

If there really is an oil field of this size there, not to mention the capture of an island of Malta, the capture of Gibraltar is also worth planning and considering.

But there is still not a single pipe in the Siirt Basin in Libya. To mobilize the air force and the army to fight a war... Obviously, everyone is not very willing.

"If I invest now, I will naturally get more. When all the dust settles, I can do things myself, why should I separate them?" Li Le talked about the theory of off-plan housing in the 21st century at the right time.

This method of selling houses in advance and giving discounts has indeed attracted customers to a large extent - the price is too high, and there are still many people who are willing to take certain risks for large discounts.

Li Le is doing the same now... The profit that a giant oilfield can provide is too attractive and worth the risk for many people.

It's one thing to be attractive, but the first person who stands up to pay or is willing to pay his own price still needs a lot of courage.

The benefits of the oil field are too great, so the conditions for exchange are also huge, so huge that it is prohibitive.

For a long time, no one came out to speak, and the scene was a bit deserted for a while.

"It seems that you still don't want to believe what I said." A plan that had been carefully arranged for several days, Li Le perfected every detail after thinking about it countless times.

He must seize every opportunity that allows him to prove himself, so that his image of the prophet can continue to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

"Everyone! Remember the Rhineland?" He asked a question calmly.

Then came the question: "So, who remembers Poland? Remember the French victory?"

He looked at everyone present with a smile, and finally said slowly: "I am now preparing a plan, the action code is 'Electric Eel'..."

"It doesn't matter whether you believe me or not. What I need is that after the success of the electric eel plan, you will make your decision on Libya, how about that?" Li Le asked.

His proposal made Goering, Goebbels, and Himmler all agree very much. If the invisible shadow force of the Fuehrer can really get accurate information, that oil field is certainly worth investing in.

The so-called investment here includes political investment and investment in the head of state!

When everyone's interests are tied together and they have chosen to believe in the head of state, Li Le's identity is no longer suspected.

Everyone will only remember the benefits, their own interests, and the terrifying invisible shadow army of Li Le.

Leaving aside the mysterious electric eel plan for the time being, Li Le met with a famous person in history, General Stedent, after the meeting.

He is the commander of the German Airborne Forces and has a wealth of experience in airborne combat.

And the German paratroopers under this man may be the most powerful and most experienced paratroopers in the world so far.

The two had lunch together and discussed a lot of issues related to the combat of paratroopers.

Like almost everyone who understands technology and tactics, General Student was also shocked by the erudition and professionalism of the Führer.

From the perspective of the 21st century to analyze the paratroopers' operations during World War II, the perspective is absolutely accurate and there are few mistakes.

The two of them talked for a long time from rifle weapons to steel helmets and other equipment, and even parachutes.

During this process, Li Le took out his STG-44 assault rifle and introduced his great invention to his paratrooper commander.

Assault rifles are indeed suitable for paratroopers to fight, otherwise the Germans would not bother to make FG42 paratrooper guns for paratroopers.

Compared with the FG42, the concept of the STG-44 assault rifle is obviously more appreciated by Student.

What shocked Student even more was that this STG-44 assault rifle was obviously not a concept product, but a mature design.

From the principle of gas conduction to the structure of the bolt, and even those parts should be stamped parts, those parts should use a simplified production process, the head of state can even tell the precise data.

This shows that at least a year later, his paratroopers will be able to use more advanced weapons, and more attention and support from the Führer - this is what every commander dreams of!

"Your wisdom is astounding, my head! You know more about paratroopers than I thought!" Student said finally.

When he was talking, he ate the last piece of beef. Li Le watched the other party swallow a mouthful of saliva and forced a smile.

In his heart, that piece of beef was much more valuable than Student's praise.

"General Student praised it so much... Waiter! Waiter! Bring another steak to our Lord General! Let's go!" Li Le ordered the empty general with a fork and said with a smile.

The other party was obviously full, so he hurriedly refused. But Li Le insisted on serving another piece of beef for his love, but the two started talking about the island of Malta after the waiter left.

"My head of state, relying solely on airborne troops, the cost of occupying the island of Malta is probably not small." Student looked at the map and said to Li Le: "If the enemy resists, we may lose thousands of people."

"There are more than 10,000 defenders on the island of Malta, and the defense is actually not strong." Li Le cheered his general: "You will get strong air support."

"It's a better way to storm the pier, capture it and let more troops land from here." Student gave his suggestion.

Li Le was fluent, nodded and agreed with his plan: "Of course, I will prepare a troop of 8,000 people to land from the port with the help of the Italian navy. All you need to do is capture the port and cooperate with this force to solve the problem. The defenders in other places are fine!"

Soon, General Student got up to leave. Although he and Li Le had a series of "mouth cannon" addictions on the map, he could only agree to help the Fuhrer to draw up an offensive plan.

As for the mobilization of one soldier and one soldier, this kind of thing cannot be achieved without the high-level meeting and the consent of Goering.

As the head of state, although Li Le can issue orders to fight, he still needs to seek the consent of his subordinates—even if it is a nominal consent, it is still required.

When Student turned to leave, Li Le was only sent to the door, and the moment the head of state closed the door, he turned and ran out of the speed of an antelope.

I saw him rushing to the dining table, stuffed the steak that was about to be cold into his mouth, and then chewed it.

Feeling the gravy moisten the tip of his tongue, Li Le suddenly felt that cooking is a great career, a career that can ride a dragon to fly in the sky just like in the anime!

The aroma that he hadn't felt for a long time made Li Le feel that his limbs were full of strength. It was a great power from protein, full of the toughness of muscle fibers!

He was almost moved to tears, and this was the only way he came up with an idea just now.

Meat! I want to eat more and more meat! Li Le kept roaring in his heart, but the chewing movement in his mouth was not slow at all.

Originally, he just wanted to eat a little bit, but this foodie hadn't tasted the tenderness and deliciousness of the meat for too long. As a result, after three mouthfuls, it only took a few minutes for him to find that the entire plate was empty.
