The Rise of the Third Reich

Chapter 754 Yakov, danger!

The day after Herschmann returned to Berlin, he received a visitor from afar at his mansion in the Charlottenburg district. The visitor was Count Haushofer, the German ambassador to Japan. He flew back to Berlin from Japan on Christmas Day and brought back a diplomatic memorandum from the Japanese government.

The Japanese agree to peace talks in principle, but they cannot change their existing combat plans before reaching a peace agreement with the United States.

In addition, in order to unify the positions of the various Axis powers, Japanese Prime Minister Hideki Tojo also proposed to hold an Axis summit somewhere in the Middle East.

In addition to the above two points, Japan has also made a series of assistance requests such as aviation technical assistance, cooperative development of advanced fighter jets, special steel and aluminum alloy assistance, and combat vehicle technical assistance.

It was Hitler's decision whether the Axis summit could be held, and Haushofer estimated that it would probably happen.

However, technical and strategic material assistance has to be decided by Hessman, and Hessman has always been stuck on the issue of technical assistance - Hessman knows how awesome Japanese manufacturing will be in later generations, and of course he has to get stuck now. Be tight, otherwise Japanese manufacturing is very likely to overwhelm German manufacturing in the future!

So after Haushofer met Hitler, he came to visit Hessmann.

"The maximum speed at an altitude of 6,000 meters is no less than 345 knots (about 638 kilometers per hour), climbing to 6,000 meters does not take more than 6 minutes, and the range is 5 hours of flying at 250 knots and half an hour at maximum power (that is, the combat radius 1,150 kilometers or more), the turning combat capability is no less than the Zero War Type 32, and the firepower is stronger than the Zero War Type 32..."

Hersman shook his head slightly while looking at the information Haushofer brought. He knew that what the Japanese wanted was a "perfect" fighter that could hit high altitudes (638 missiles at 6,000 meters). The performance of kilometers per hour is no problem for hitting mid- and high-altitudes, but hitting extremely high altitudes is not enough), it must also be able to perform combat at mid- and low-altitudes, and it must also have a long range.

This aircraft should be the "Gale" carrier-based fighter. As long as it has an 18-cylinder large-displacement air-cooled or 24-cylinder liquid-cooled piston engine with superior performance, it should be put into production in two years. Engines of this level are readily available, and the BMW-802 series and Jumo-222 series can handle them.

However, when the Me-262 jet fighter has begun small batch production and the carrier-based Me-262T has also begun research and development, it will take another two years to develop a piston carrier-based fighter like the "Gale". For Germany, it is A waste.

Therefore, the plan of the German Naval Aviation is to continue to upgrade the Fokker Zero so that it can cope with low-altitude combat and leave enemies at mid- and high-altitudes to the Fw-1e-262T.

But now that the Japanese have proposed cooperative development, they might as well export the BMW-802 technology to Japan in exchange for half of the rights to the "Liefeng". In this way, if the development of Me-262T encounters difficulties, it can be replaced with the German version of Gale.

With the BMW-802, the development and production of the three aircrafts P1Y, N40 and Ki84 should also be greatly accelerated. With these types of aircraft, the Japanese should be able to withstand the Yankees' "dumpling ships" and aircraft... I wonder if the Japanese can withstand the time when these "advanced aircraft" are put into mass production?

While Herschmann and Haushofer were studying what kind of technical assistance should be given to the Japanese, his confidant Natalie had already arrived at the Nuremberg-Soviet-German Friendship Concentration Camp—this concentration camp now holds more than 300,000 prisoners of war. Red Army prisoners of war captured in the Belorussian Campaign were held here. But there was no Red Army major named Yakov Dzhugashvili among them...at least not on the roster of the prisoner of war camp.

However, Natalie could not just go to Hessman to report, because Yakov would most likely conceal his identity after being captured.

So Natalie must spend a lot of time investigating all the prisoners captured from the Belarusian battlefield - she must meet all the prisoners who may be Yakov one by one to determine whether they are related to Stalin's Moscow residence That person!

"Is Comrade Swanitzer here?" A very beautiful voice sounded in the ears of Comrade Li Mei who was moving bricks for exercise. Li Meitong immediately put down the bricks and frowned at the little Nazi witch Irma Grazer.

"Irma, what are you doing with Joseph?" Li Mei asked. "He's already exercising by moving bricks."

Major Joseph Swanitzer was one of the few confidants of Comrade LeMay in Nuremberg. He and Li Mei had several "Queen's Dinners" (it was said to be the Queen's Dinner, but none of the people who came there were the Queen herself. But a few big traitors), but they were unmoved. And he was also one of the very few Soviet prisoners of war who firmly did not believe that he would go to Siberia for labor reform after returning to the Soviet Union. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was smelly and tough.

Therefore, this Red Army artillery major from Georgia suffered some hardships in the Nuremberg Concentration Camp and was "diagnosed" with hyperlipidemia, so he sometimes moved bricks with Li Mei for exercise.

Because they were "comrades in distress" and shared a common language (the Red Army major could speak English, and he didn't like dealing with the Soviets), Li Mei became familiar with him and became friends who talked about everything.

"Curtis, I'm not looking for Comrade Swanizer," Glazer smiled sweetly at Li Mei, "It's the people above who are looking for him."

She is now very familiar with Li Mei, almost becoming friends, and has returned all the packages sent by the Red Cross to Li Mei - because in a package sent to Li Mei, Glazer discovered A dozen nylon stockings produced by DuPont... In Germany in the 1940s, these were a good thing!

"The people above?" Li Mei asked, "Are they from the Russian Empress?"

"No, it's people from Berlin," Glazer said. "If you want to meet a lot of prisoners of war who are 30-40 years old, there are thousands of them. Curtis, you look quite young, you are in your 30s, why don't you come and make up the number. After the meeting For the cream cake, I’ll leave a big one for you.”

Li Mei nodded and said, "Okay, I will come. Joseph has gone to the toilet. I will tell him when he comes back."

"Okay, then you go to the infirmary and wait in line to meet the people from Berlin." Glazer said, handing Li Mei two mimeographed notices, and then hurried away.

It turned out that she was captured by Leshinskaya who came from Berlin today. She wanted to inform a lot of uncles in their thirties to take the captives to the infirmary, so she didn't have time to wait for the strange Svanidze. .

"What? Meeting people from Berlin..." Major Svanizer, who looked a little nervous and always had fear in his eyes, was trembling when he heard that he was going to meet people from Berlin.

"What's wrong?" Li Mei asked strangely, "Joseph, are you scared?"

"No, I'm not afraid."

Li Mei smiled and said, "There is nothing to be afraid of. You are not the only person the Nazis from Berlin want to see. Many people have been notified."

The Nazis in this time and space don't seem to be particularly scary. At least they don't put people in concentration camps to make soap, and they don't treat prisoners of war harshly. So Comrade LeMay and most of the people in the Nuremberg prisoner of war camp were not very afraid of them.

"What? There are many people..." Svanizer's calves were trembling, "Who are they?"

"They are all Red Army prisoners of war in their thirties, but I will go too." As Li Mei spoke, she pulled Swanizer and walked to the infirmary together - this is an excuse to avoid labor, and you can also get Extra food, who would be a fool not to go.

When the two of them arrived at the door of the infirmary, qualified prisoners of war had already lined up in a long line. Most of these people were militiamen captured from the Belarusian battlefield, and they all looked very indifferent.

When the German army occupied Western Belarus, the Bolshevik Party regime in various parts of Western Belarus organized many militias, most of whose members were older Belarusian men (the younger ones all joined the regular Red Army). Most of them were Poles before 1939, then became Soviets for two years, and now they are happily preparing to become Germans. So there was no resistance to the Nazis who captured them.

The reason why the Germans did not let them go was because many factories producing military supplies were now opened in this special prisoner of war camp in Nuremberg, which needed free labor. And there is no place to put them for the time being. Probably because they are afraid that the Red Army will fight back, now almost all the people in Western Belarus have gone to good places like Germany and France to become refugees. So Hitler's biggest headache now is not the war, but how to resettle so many refugees who are preparing to become Germans...

"Alexander, who did you just meet?" Li Mei called to a Belarusian prisoner he knew.

"She is a woman in her thirties. She is quite beautiful." The man replied.

"What are you asking about?" Li Mei asked again.

"Ask me if I am from the 9th Mechanized Army of the Red Army and if I know a man named Yakov Dzhugashvili..."

When Li Mei was thinking about who Yakov Dzhugashvili was, Svanidze beside him suddenly shouted, and then ran towards the gate of the concentration camp.

It turns out that he is Yakov Dzhugashvili! Swanidze is his maternal surname and Joseph is his patronymic. After becoming an "anti-G fate", he found an opportunity to throw away his ID and then reported a false identity. The Germans did not investigate carefully and just let him muddle around in the Nuremberg concentration camp until now.

But he was discovered after all!

Yakov knew that he could not be captured. As the son of the great leader Stalin, he could only die heroically and could not live an ignoble existence!

Since you didn't die on the battlefield, then let's die in the prisoner of war camp... let the guard guarding the gate of the prisoner of war camp beat him to death!
