The Third Reich: The Return of the King

Silva turned a blind eye to the navy’s complaints. Although it was a pity that the Samba navy was weakened, it was also inseparable from the navy’s continued mischief. If it weren’t for the mess they had made before, they wouldn’t have been suppressed like this.

So in the final analysis, the navy itself was not clean either. What’s more, this matter had nothing to do with him. Before he came to power, the navy had already declined, so the other party’s complaints should not be told to him at all, but to the previous navy leaders and the presidents of Samba.

If Silva said that he didn’t envy the powerful navy of the Third Reich and didn’t want to have a navy of the same size or even stronger than the other party, he would definitely be lying.

However, he knew very well in his heart that a powerful navy of this scale could only be owned by those powerful superpowers. Samba was only a regional power at this time, and it was not at that level at all, so they could only think about it. There was no chance, or there was no chance to build such a powerful navy within decades!

So envy can’t be envied. Instead of envying and complaining here, it’s better to think of ways to solve other more practical problems.

“How many fighter jets and bombers does our Air Force have, and where are they mainly distributed?”

The navy couldn’t be asked for in a short time, but they could still count on the air force.

After World War I, stimulated by the war, Samba and other countries in South America realized the importance of the air force, and began to purchase various aircraft from abroad.

Samba, which has a slightly stronger industrial strength, even proposed a plan to develop and build advanced fighter planes in its own country.

Of course, this plan was not finally realized, because the manufacture of aircraft is inseparable from one problem: the production of aircraft engines!

Even propeller engines are not something that everyone can manufacture.

Even if it can be built, it is meaningless if the technical level is too different from that of the fighter planes of mainstream countries. In this case, it is better to just buy them. As a result

, Samba’s fighter plane self-manufacturing plan was stillborn, and the military became a comprador, colluding with foreign arms dealers, and bought a large number of aircraft that were eliminated by various countries after the war from the British Empire and Europe.

These aircraft were still advanced ten years ago, but now, these fighter planes have long been outdated.

After the advent of the German BF-109, the air forces of various countries quickly attracted a wave of all-round The new trend of equipment replacement.

The Samba country, which cannot manufacture aircraft and can only purchase from abroad, originally wanted to order a batch of advanced fighter planes.

However, due to the outbreak of World War II, the weapons of the warring countries were not enough, and no one could sell advanced fighter planes to them, resulting in Samba country not being able to buy good things with money, and could only make do with the original fighter planes.

It may not be a problem for these fighter planes to bully the children around. After all, the armaments of South American countries are generally messy, and most countries are not as good as Samba country!

However, using this kind of fighter to fight against the air force of the Third Reich is simply looking for death!

So after hearing Silva’s words, the generals of the Air Force immediately began to sweat.

How should he answer this question from the other party?

Answer truthfully?

Will the other party be unhappy and dismiss himself?

Lie?

If he lies, what if the other party misjudges the strength of the air force and lets him take the air force to fight the German army, wouldn’t that let them die?

So for a moment, he was very entangled in his heart and didn’t know how to answer the other party’s question.

“What’s wrong? You are an air force commander, but you don’t even know how many fighter jets you have and where they are distributed?”

Silva was very angry when he saw the other party stood up and stood there in a daze without saying a word.

He thought that the other party was dissatisfied with him and felt that he was just a lower-level officer who came to power through a coup, so he looked down on him and was unwilling to talk to him.

Silva’s background was not high, and his position in the army was not high before, which led to a great lack of prestige.

This has always been a thorn in Silva’s heart, and he cares about it very much. So even if the air force commander didn’t mean it at this time, he still associated it with this aspect.

Therefore, the air force commander, who was worried about angering Silva, didn’t want to make the other party’s misunderstanding deeper because of his hesitation, and became even more angry!

“”No, President. I know how many fighter planes the Air Force has and where they are located. However, our planes are one or two generations behind the latest planes of the Third Reich and Europe. So even if we have a numerical advantage, I’m afraid we are no match!”

The Air Force Commander finally reacted and hurried to explain.

Silva stared at the other person’s eyes for a long time. After making sure that the other person was not lying, the doubts in his heart subsided a little.

However, he still didn’t have a good impression of this guy. He had made up his mind that after this matter was resolved, he would clean up the army thoroughly. He had his own confidants in the three services of the navy, army and air force, so as to ensure that his position could be stable.

If he could not control the army well, then the things he did before could be done by other officers below, and then he might be the one to be overthrown!

“Do you mean that we have the advantage in numbers?”

However, there was an important piece of information in the other party’s words that caught his attention.

The number of fighter planes in the Samba Air Force was actually more than that of the Third Reich, which was really surprising.

“The Third Reich is too far away from us, so they have only sent a small number of air force planes. The rest of the air force is mainly six aircraft carriers and the carrier-based aircraft on them. The number should be within 400, and the total number of our fighters is close to 1,200. The numerical advantage is very obvious!”

The Air Force Commander saw that Silva was suspicious of this matter, so he hurriedly explained
