Long Live His Majesty the Kaiser!

Why fight at this time? The German people no longer want to fight. What if it was even a year earlier?

Is there really no mention of Sun Xiaochuan in historical texts? In fact, I really want to read the Japanese history of Emperor Kogawa, because it is quite niche and I haven't seen anyone write about it.

Authoritative historians such as Bernd Wegener named and criticized Manstein and Guderian among the Eastern Front generals for tampering with history the most. The so-called three famous German generals are not recognized by the historians at all. Let's talk about the sources of the three famous generals. Liddell (also translated as Liddell) and Guderian reached cooperation with Manstein and the Rommel family. Liddell beautified and praised them, and they also praised and admitted that their military capabilities were learned from Liddell. For example, German mobile warfare (Blitzkrieg, Germany itself calls it mobile warfare, the British were the first to call it so, and later Germany also used it) is the credit of many German generals and talents. Among them, Kesselring is the indispensable soul figure who turned blitzkrieg from theory into actual combat. Guderian himself admitted that without Kesselring, mobile warfare would not be even half as effective. Liddell gave all the credit to Guderian, touting Guderian as the father of blitzkrieg, while Guderian touted that his theory of armored warfare was all learned from Liddell, who was his mentor. Liddell touted Guderian, Manstein, and Rommel as the so-called three famous German generals. At the same time, he said that Guderian, Manstein, and Rommel all learned their military knowledge from his theories. This is the source of the so-called three famous generals. Liddell once approached Kesselring and other generals, but Kesselin and other generals refused to cooperate with Liddell. Modern historians have long scolded Manstein bloody. Modern historians' evaluation of Manstein is that he is a liar who is not worthy of being a soldier at all. It is a shame for soldiers. The main force of Germany was ruined by Manstein. Touting Manstein's achievements in China is based on what Manstein boasted about or what the Junkers Corps and Liddell praised. It is even simply that the country looks down on civilian generals with grassroots backgrounds and people who like to flatter aristocrats make up their own words, which are completely inconsistent with historical facts. Famous German generals recognized that Rommel could only be a corps commander at best, and was completely unqualified to be a group army commander. Rommel was too strong, and he would not be able to meet famous generals. Since Montgomery took office, Rommel has been losing battles against the British army, and his casualties have always been higher than those of the British army. After the Battle of Medenin, Rommel said in his diary and to his close associates that the North African Army was destined to be wiped out. I would use illness as an excuse to leave North Africa to avoid ruining my reputation. Even before Montgomery took office, Rommel suffered great losses when he met famous generals such as Koenig and Freiberg. If other famous German generals had not played an important role, the African Army would have been severely damaged in the early stage. Rommel did join the rebel group and prepared to launch a mutiny. Not only did he not report the knowledge, he did not know about the assassination. Many members of the rebel group themselves did not know Stauffenberg's plan. Rommel advocated launching a mutiny to capture Mustache. He was a pure 25-year-old boy. Mustache was very kind to him. And Rommel also hated his savior Carl Hanke because of a trivial matter. He was a pure white-eyed wolf. Moreover, the SS was cleaning up guerrillas in France. Rommel also slandered the SS for massacring French civilians and sent the SS who suppressed the guerrillas to a military court. After the war, the leader of the French guerrillas came out to prove that it was indeed French guerrillas that the SS eliminated, and they did not kill civilians indiscriminately. The strongest players in Germany are Model, Kesselring, Lendulik (the leader of the three Austrian heroes, an Austrian Croat), and Scherner. The second-level famous generals, Steiner, the founder of the SS army, General Lör and General Raus, one of the three Austrian heroes, General Halpe, Otto Waller, Walter Wink, Werner Ostendorf, Carl August Hanke and other famous generals. The strongest general in the second tier is Air Force General Alexander Lehr. It can be said that his comprehensive ability far exceeds that of other famous generals in the second tier. Third block Otto Giller, Theodor Scherer and other famous players. Manstein is reluctant to be ranked in the third gear, because I ranked Mountain Soldier General Julius Ringel in the third gear. The famous Soviet general Trofimenko, who defeated Manstein three times, played against Ringel. Ringel's performance was much better than Manstein. Trofimenko defeated Manstein three times. In the first game: Operation Winter Storm, Manstein commanded 42,000 German troops to attack Trofimen's headquarters. The Soviet army under Trofimenko had 38,500 men and only 42 light tanks. In this battle, the Soviet army suffered 14,827 casualties and defeated Manstein. The German troops under Manstein suffered about 23,000 casualties and completely lost 279 tanks and assault guns. Second Game: Zhitomir Counterattack, Manstein commanded the Guards Division, the Imperial Division and the 1st Armored Division, 25th Armored Division and 3 Infantry Divisions of the Wehrmacht to attack Trofimenko's 27th Army. Trofimenko defeated Manstein again, with 21,463 Soviet casualties. The German army suffered 39,000 casualties, completely losing 383 tanks and assault guns, and the three ace armored divisions of the German army were crippled. The third game: Cherkasy rescue and blocking battle, Manstein invested a total of 68,000 German combat troops to attack Trofimenko's headquarters. A total of 49,350 Soviet combat troops were invested in the entire blockade. The Soviet army suffered 27,859 casualties in this battle. The German army commanded by Manstein suffered more than 46,000 casualties and completely lost 494 tanks and assault guns. Manstein lied repeatedly about his casualties. The above-mentioned German casualties are corrected versions by German historians. From March to May 1945, Trofimenko commanded more than 350,000 Soviet and Bulgarian troops to attack more than 40,000 troops under Ringel's command. Many of the more than 40,000 troops under Ringel's command were militiamen and Hungarian and other foreign soldiers. They were extremely short of ammunition and ammunition, and the German army had no air superiority. Fighting for two months, Lingle's men suffered only more than 5,000 casualties. It was not until May that Lingle received Lendulik's order to abandon his position and break out and surrender to the US military. Lingle led his troops to successfully break through and retreat. Lingle was an Austrian, born in 1889, and was a major at the time of the Anschluss. Guderian made a huge mistake in 1945, which seriously lowered the rating. In the 1945 Battle of Pomerania, General Routh commanded 200,000 German troops to resist Rokossovsky's 600,000 Soviet troops. Rokossovsky was unable to move forward, and the progress was slow and the casualties were huge. As a result, Guderian forcibly ordered Rouse to counterattack and asked Rouse to put all reserves into the counterattack. Rouse repeatedly protested to no avail. Rouse had a total of 177 tank assault guns and destroyers, and Rokossovsky had 1,480 tanks and self-propelled artillery. In the end, the counterattack failed. The few armored vehicles under Rouse suffered heavy losses, and the Pomerania defense line was on the verge of collapse. Famous Soviet generals believe that if Guderian had not forcibly ordered Raus to counterattack, Raus could have held on for more than two months, and the Soviet casualties in the Battle of Pomerania were estimated to be close to 400,000. Guderian's early performance was also seriously overestimated. In 1941, Mustache asked Guderian to stop attacking and repairing. As a result, Bock and Guderian did not listen to Mustache and attacked without authorization, which resulted in the crippling of a German armored division. At the beginning of the Battle of Smolensk, the German 39th Motorized Corps was surrounded by the Soviet troops and was on the verge of being annihilated. The 7th Armored Division was also semi-surrounded by the Soviet troops. Hoot had three armored divisions available, but did not make any rescue plan. Hoot asked Bock to mobilize the reserve team for rescue. Bock had six reserve divisions available, but Bock was reluctant to mobilize his own reserve team for rescue, and asked Guderian to rescue. Guderian refused to rescue, arguing with each other to preserve their strength. Two days after the 39th Motorized Corps was surrounded by the Soviet army, Model saw that the German troops in the encirclement were about to be annihilated. Before the top management issued a rescue order, he rushed forward with his 3rd Armored Division and defeated the eight Soviet divisions and rescued the German troops in the encirclement. Battle of Minsk Hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops broke through to the west and south. Air Force Commander Kesselin sent four telegrams to Bock, Guderian, and Hoth, requesting the three to send troops to block the Soviet troops in the west and south. At that time, Bock had 11 full divisions that were not engaged in the battle. Guderian and Hott had six armored divisions that could be deployed. All three refused to send troops to block the Soviet troops in the west and south. On June 26, Model made suggestions after observing the battle situation. He first sent a message to Schwepenburg, the commander of the direct army: Apply to break away and march eastward, seize the ferry to the west and block the escape corridor to avoid complete failure of the encirclement. Schwepenburg forwarded Model's blockade request to Guderian, who gave two levels of clear instructions: the core mission of the entire army is to quickly assault eastward and seize deep cities. The armored forces cannot be divided and consumed in clearing out the scattered troops. Guderian asked Model to immediately continue to follow up the main force eastward and not to divide troops westward. After receiving the rejection telegram, Model judged that a complete breakthrough of hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops would cut the strategic value of the entire Minsk siege in half and cause big trouble to the German army in the future. Model did not ask for instructions again, but directly ordered the entire division to change direction and forcefully march westward day and night. Model blocked the 162,000 Soviet troops in the west, defeated and annihilated them. Guderian learned the next day that Model had secretly transferred west, and once ordered him to immediately return to the team and march eastward. After the war, Guderian and others shamelessly took credit for themselves, saying that they ordered Model to block the Soviet army. In the defense of the Luga Bridgehead, Rouse, who was still a brigade commander at the time, led 5,200 German troops to face a fierce attack by more than 250,000 Soviet troops. Loeb and Hoppner conserved their strength and did not support Rouse for seven days. In the end, Rouse relied on his 5,200 German troops to repel more than 250,000 Soviet troops. In this battle, the Germans suffered 412 casualties and 89 irrecoverable losses, while the Soviets suffered 54,000 casualties and 23,000 irrecoverable losses. Loeb and Hoppner shamelessly took credit for Rouse's work. They clearly took all the credit for themselves despite not having done anything in the process. In the Third Battle of Kharkov, Manstein did not want to fight in the first place. It was Mustache who insisted on fighting. The strategic command was by Mustache, and the tactical command was by famous generals such as Rouse and Hausser. Manstein was held back throughout the whole process. As the army commander at the time, Rouse fought bloody battles with three Soviet armies for ten days. When ammunition was low, Rouse asked for help many times. Manstein was watching the show with 47,000 elite armored troops in hand, and it only took four hours to reach Routh's troops. Due to lack of ammunition, Routh's troops could only engage in large-scale hand-to-hand combat with the Soviet army. The warehouse was full of ammunition and it only took about five hours to transport it to Routh's troops. However, Manstein strictly prohibited the delivery of ammunition to Routh's troops. Hausser on the same front line was treated the same way. No reinforcements were given, most ammunition supplies were not given, and only some light weapons and ammunition were given. Hauser's department also launched a large-scale hand-to-hand battle with the Soviet army. After Hauser defeated the Soviet army, Manstein ordered that Hauser was not allowed to pursue the Soviet army, was not allowed to encircle and annihilate the Soviet army, and was allowed to leave the Soviet army in the encirclement circle. After the war, Manstein shamelessly took credit for himself. By the way, at Dunkirk, Rundstedt was the first to give the order to stop the attack. On May 23, Rundstedt ordered to stop the attack. On May 24, Rundstedt made his suggestion to Mustache, who agreed to stop the attack. On May 26, Mustache ordered the army to attack again. However, Rundstedt and Kleist were extremely conservative in their attacks. After the war, the blame was passed to Mustache and Göring. The noble general who should support the most is Reichenau. Reichenau made great contributions in the early stage, while Rundstedt was extremely conservative. Reichenau defied Rundstedt's orders many times and achieved many decisive battles. After the war, Rundstedt and Kleist took the credit of Reichenau as their own, which greatly weakened Reichenau's achievements. Although Reichenau was an aristocrat, Reichenau was extremely ostracized and hostile by the Junkers officer corps headed by Rundstedt because of his die-hard loyalty to Mustache. Mustache twice wanted to appoint Reichenau as the commander-in-chief of the army, but was forced to cancel the appointment by the Junkers officer corps headed by Rundstedt.

Can't the previous shortcomings be corrected? It's hard to stretch. If there are too many, it will be poisonous.

The biggest failure of this article is the so-called golden finger of the national policy tree. Now that you've cheated, let's cheat to death. What's the use of something like this that doesn't hurt or itch? In essence, the most fundamental reason for the failure of the so-called second and third virtues is insufficient resources. Whether it is various natural resources or human resources, they are far from being comparable to their opponents. With the level of productivity at that time, other so-called technologies, systems, military mobilization systems, military combat effectiveness, etc., Could not bridge this natural gap. Therefore, the author's design and structure of this article cannot be said to be behind closed doors and to speak for himself, but if a simulator with strict standards is used to run it, Germany will lose no matter how it moves around (unless the hang-up is opened a little more and it enters the nuclear age in advance). The golden finger of the national policy tree is meaningless. From a Shuangwen perspective, it would be better not to have anything at all. If Pig's Knuckle was a time traveler without plug-ins, had foresight, and had various abilities (political, economic, military, cultural, diplomatic, people's livelihood achievements, etc.), And then turned around in the headwind situation at that time, this sense of accomplishment would be infinitely more satisfying than relying on the so-called golden finger to create various advantageous conditions. Although it is fun to play games and rely on plug-ins to pass the level, it is not worth mentioning compared to relying on various attempts on your own and fighting hard to pass the level with punches and kicks. Of course, this requires very high writing skills such as the plot design of the article, the shaping of details such as pig's feet and supporting characters, etc., And most people cannot grasp it. In short, either don't cheat, or if you want to cheat, just cheat. Taking this article as an example, the author can fully achieve the various beneficial results brought about by cheating by adding various other realistic ability bufs to the pig's feet. There's no point in leaving it open, it's not as good as not leaving it open.

First, let's talk about the history of the Netherlands wanting to sell Dutch New Guinea after World War I. In 1919, the Netherlands offered 20 million pounds to sell Dutch New Guinea, which was later reduced to 12 million pounds. However, other countries still thought it was too high and did not buy it. It was not until the discovery of oil fields in Dutch New Guinea in the 1930s that the Netherlands stopped selling Dutch New Guinea. The protagonist can buy it as the emperor's private domain, which can prevent nobles from interfering. Twelve million pounds is just over 87 tons of gold, and the capital will be recovered within one year after taking New Guinea. Dutch New Guinea has the Grasberg copper-gold mine, the largest copper-gold mine in New Guinea. Mining began in 1972 and gold was discovered in 1988. At the peak of the Grasberg copper-gold mine, the annual output of gold was about 100 tons, and the annual output of refined copper was about 900,000 tons. When the annual gold production reaches its peak, the annual output of gold is 108.1 Tons, and when the annual refined copper output reaches its highest, the annual output is 975,900 tons. At its peak, the annual gold output ranked first in the world, and it was once known as the second largest copper mine in the world. Output declined after 2004. The annual output of gold in open-pit mining has been around 60 tons for a long time, the annual output of refined copper has ranged from more than 600,000 tons to more than 800,000 tons, and the annual output of molybdenum has remained between 9,500 tons and 14,000 tons. Before 2018, the annual silver output has been maintained between 200 tons and 260 tons for a long time, with the highest annual output of 265 tons of silver. In 2018, the annual gold output was 83.67 Tons. Afterwards, in order to protect the environment and shift to underground mining, the annual gold output dropped to about 50 tons, and the annual silver output dropped to less than 200 tons. After more than fifty years of mining, in 2026, the Grasberg Copper-Gold Mine still has about 1,600 tons of unmined gold reserves, about 7,000 tons of silver reserves, 27 million tons of copper reserves, and about 800,000 tons of molybdenum reserves. 10,000 tons of refined copper cost about 1.6 Million pounds during World War I. In 1919, 10,000 tons of refined copper cost 1.12 Million pounds. After 1925, 10,000 tons of refined copper in the UK has been stable at around 500,000 pounds for a long time. The price of imported refined copper in Germany is higher than that in the UK. In 1918, 10,000 tons of molybdenum cost more than 38 million U. S. Dollars. During World War II, 10,000 tons of molybdenum cost between more than 15 million U. S. Dollars and 25 million U. S. Dollars. There are differences in different countries and years. After the exhaustion of rare metals such as manganese, chromium, nickel and molybdenum, Germany can no longer even repair weapons and equipment. In Germany's later military production, a large amount of unusable scrap iron was included in the output, even if it is usable, because of the reduction of rare metals such as manganese, chromium, nickel and molybdenum, the quality of the equipment has also greatly declined. At the end of 1943, the molybdenum mines in Norway were destroyed by Allied bombing, and the production dropped by more than half. Norway's molybdenum production accounted for four-fifths of Germany's annual molybdenum production. In early 1944, the manganese mines in Ukraine were lost by Manstein, and Ukraine's manganese production accounted for six-tenths of Germany's manganese production. The supply of chrome ore in Turkey was cut off. By the end of 1944, the manganese ore, chromium ore, copper ore, nickel ore, molybdenum ore, mercury ore, lead-zinc ore and nickel ore in Finland were all lost. Only one-fifth of the bauxite ore in the Balkans was left. In the end, only mercury ore and bauxite in Italy were left, while manganese ore, antimony ore, lead-zinc ore, and magnesite in Czechoslovakia and Austria supported German military production. Before these production areas were lost before 1943, these rare metals were far from enough. Germany's equipment output was far inferior to that of other powerful countries, but there was a serious shortage of rare metals. In the 1930s, Germany had bought up all the rare metals available around the world. In 1940, most of the rare metals were seriously insufficient. In 1941, the amount of nickel added to the Panzer III tank was reduced. By early 1943, the nickel of the Panzer III tank and the Panzer IV tank was reduced by half, and the molybdenum was also reduced a lot. After that, only manganese and a little chromium were left. After losing most of the manganese ore and other metal production areas in 1944, except for the Tiger tank, the armor quality of other German tanks was already at the same level as ordinary civilian steel. Tank armor steel does not need to add nickel, chromium, and molybdenum. It can only be supported by manganese, which greatly reduces its defense power. But apart from mortars, other artillery pieces in World War II must use nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy steel. Carbon manganese steel is used for small and medium caliber mortars. Heavy mortars can only use carbon manganese steel, but the performance is generally short of life. If you want good performance and long life, at least chromium molybdenum must be added. If the air-cooled machine gun wants to be able to fire continuously for a long time, chromium molybdenum must be added. The air-cooled machine gun made of carbon-manganese steel can only fire in bursts, and it will stop for a period of time after firing about a hundred rounds. Nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy steel is commonly used in aviation machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns. In 1942, Germany no longer added nickel and only used chromium-molybdenum alloy steel. The service life and continuous shooting ability of the machine gun were halved, and the shooting accuracy and armor-piercing ability were reduced by one-third. Aerospace engines require nickel, chromium, molybdenum, cobalt, and aluminum. If any one of them is missing, it will be scrapped directly. Nickel is the most important. If copper, tin, lead, antimony, and tungsten are missing, the failure rate is high. Manganese and zinc are standard in all machinery. Manganese, chromium and molybdenum are essential for all industrial equipment. Nickel is not required for simple equipment but is essential for high-end equipment. Nine out of ten military industrial equipment and chemical industry equipment require nickel, and three quarters of heavy industry equipment require nickel. Alloy steel has the largest amount of nickel added, followed by chromium, manganese, and molybdenum. Cobalt and tungsten are indispensable for industrial tools and molds. They are used in large amounts and are also necessary for some industrial equipment. On March 15, 1945, the German Army on the Western Front had 67 German-made field guns available. Together with the captured field guns from various countries, the German Army on the Western Front had a total of 387 field guns available. The German army in the Italian theater has twenty German field guns available. Including the captured ones, there are a total of 110 field guns available. The German army on the Eastern Front has 1,980 German-made field guns available. Including captured ones, there are a total of 3,280 field guns available. In February 1945, the Allied forces on the Western Front had more than 35,000 field guns available, and the Allied forces in the Italian theater had more than 10,400 field guns available. The Allies added thousands of various artillery pieces to the front every month. In February 1945, the German army on the Western Front had 337 tanks and assault guns available. By mid-March, most of the German armored units under Model had been transferred to the Eastern Front. In mid-March, Model still had 71 tanks and assault guns available. In February 1945, the Allied forces on the Western Front had more than 20,000 tanks available for tank destruction. In February 1945, the German Army on the Western Front had 307 aircraft available, and the Allies on the Western Front had 33,000 aircraft available. The Allies added more than 2,000 combat aircraft to the Western Front every month. From February to April 1945, 4,760 Allied tanks and 4,375 aircraft were completely destroyed, most of which were destroyed by Model's troops. In February 1945, the German army in the Italian theater and Lao Mo's Italian army had a total of 121 aircraft available. In February 1945, the Allied forces had a total of more than 12,200 aircraft available for combat in the Italian theater. In addition, there were more than 3,300 Allied aircraft available in North Africa. Allied aircraft in North Africa dealt with the German forces in the Italian theater and the Balkan theater. In the Battle of the Ruhr, Model's army group had only a total of more than 70,000 rifles, and many of these more than 70,000 rifles were scrapped. There was a lack of rare metals and the equipment could not be repaired. If one was damaged, one would be missing. In 1936, a metric ton of high-carbon ferrochromium in the United States cost US$520. High-carbon ferrochromium contained about 65% chromium. In 1936, a metric ton of low-carbon ferrochromium cost US$600. Low-carbon ferrochromium contained about 65% chromium. Low carbon ferrochrome is better than high carbon ferrochrome for making special steel. The cost of refining low carbon ferrochromium is also higher, so it is more expensive. Refining special steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel can be done by directly adding ferrochromium. Pure chromium is not required, but pure chromium is needed to chromium plate weapons. The bores of large-caliber artillery must be chromium-plated. Countries with sufficient chromium in the bores of medium-caliber artillery and anti-aircraft guns are chromium-plated. Medium-caliber artillery in countries with tight chromium resources such as Germany are not chromium-plated. The inner bores of machine guns and sniper rifles must be chromium-plated. Some countries have chrome-plated submachine guns, while others do not. In addition to the inner bores, there are also many important parts of weapons that need chromium plating. In addition to being necessary for steelmaking, manganese is also used for manganese-based phosphating. The inner bores of large-caliber artillery, machine guns, and sniper rifles must be chromium-plated, while the inner bores of rifles, submachine guns, and artillery without chromium plating are required for manganese-based phosphating. Important components such as bolts must be manganese-based phosphated. Precision parts of tank engines and armored vehicle engines must be manganese-based phosphating. In addition to making alloy steel, molybdenum is also used to make armor-piercing projectiles. In addition to the Grasberg copper and gold mine, there are also many copper and gold mines on the island containing molybdenum. Antimony is needed to make gears and bearings. The alloy formed by antimony and lead is used to make bullets and cannonball cores. Antimony compounds are used for sensitivity adjustment and combustion optimization of ammunition primers to ensure reliable ignition of ammunition and normal firing of weapons. Armor and armor-piercing bullet coating: Antimony is added to steel or tungsten alloy to improve the impact resistance and wear resistance of the material. It is used in tank armor, anti-tank warheads, etc., Which can effectively resist the attack of enemy weapons and enhance the penetration ability of armor-piercing bullets into enemy armor. It is best to add antimony to the manufacture of high-strength gun barrels. Antimony oxide is widely used in the manufacture of aircraft, ships and military vehicles. Matches and other daily necessities require antimony, and some medicines require antimony. Many of the copper and gold deposits in New Guinea contain antimony. Papua New Guinea and Indonesia occupy half of New Guinea and its affiliated islands. As of 2025, the New Guinea nickel mine has a total of more than 19 million tons of metallic nickel reserves, more than 1.5 Million tons of metallic cobalt reserves, more than 36 million tons of metallic chromium reserves, and 3 million tons of manganese reserves. Those that have been mined in history are not included in the statistics. New Guinea nickel ores are generally symbiotic with nickel, cobalt and chromium, and some nickel ores are also accompanied by iron, manganese and gold. The more than 36 million tons of metallic chromium reserves only include the chromium reserves associated with nickel ores. There are also a large number of independent chromium ores in New Guinea, but there are no statistics on independent chromium ore reserves. New Guinea and its affiliated islands have more than 100 million tons of manganese ore, mainly of high grade, and are basically open-pit mined. The Karima Manganese Mine has about 30 million tons of manganese ore reserves. It is located in the Gulf Province of Papua New Guinea with a grade of 50%–70%. The Karima Manganese Mine is only about ten kilometers away from the coast. Rigo manganese mining area, close to Port Moresby, has reserves of more than 10 million tons, grade 45%–55%, low phosphorus and low iron, high-grade metallurgical grade. There are also several medium-sized manganese mines with manganese ore reserves of several million tons. Most of the manganese mines in New Guinea are close to the sea or large rivers. New Guinea has 20 million tons of vanadium reserves, which are symbiotic with iron and titanium. Teak is called plant gold. A large amount of teak is used to build aircraft carriers and battleships. New Guinea is one of the teak producing areas. There is a tungsten mine in Papua New Guinea with a tungsten reserve of 24,600 tons. It is not just this tungsten mine. The reserves of other tungsten mines are unknown. In 1940, the price of vanadium pentoxide in the United States was US$2.1/Pound. The price of 10,000 metric tons of vanadium pentoxide is US$46.297 Million. Vanadium pentoxide contains 67.9% Vanadium. The equivalent of 10,000 tons of pure vanadium is more than 68 million US dollars, but extracting vanadium from vanadium pentoxide also consumes various resources and labor. The German MG34 machine gun uses chromium-molybdenum-vanadium alloy steel, the Tiger tank contains vanadium, American aircraft engines add vanadium, British Spitfire engines also add vanadium, and the underwater parts and gun mounts of ships also add vanadium. STS armor is a nickel-chromium-vanadium alloy steel. From the 1930s to World War II, STS armor was used on almost every class of U. S. Warships. Its thickness ranges from bulkheads and anti-fragment layers to armored decks and lower armor belts. Before World War I, 10,000 tons of nickel in Germany cost just over 10 million US dollars. In the economic crisis of 1930, the price of 10,000 tons of nickel was US$1.7 Million, in 1934 it was more than three million US dollars, in 1939 the United States' 10,000 tons of nickel was US$6.28 Million, the UK and Germany's 10,000 tons of nickel were about US$6.6 Million, and in 1941 the UK and the United States' 10,000 tons of nickel were US$7.7 Million, and Germany's was more than US$8 million. This is a price controlled by the government. When buying nickel from other countries, 10,000 tons of nickel is about US$14 million. I don't need to say more about the importance of lead and zinc. The amount is very large. In 1939, 10,000 tons of zinc in the UK cost about US$1.33 Million. In 1939, 10,000 tons of lead in Canada cost about US$1.16 Million. Papua New Guinea has the fourth largest lead reserves and the third largest zinc reserves in the world. In 1939, 10,000 tons of aluminum in the United States cost US$4.41 Million. Papua New Guinea has proven bauxite reserves of 1.9 Billion tons, excluding the half of New Guinea island occupied by Indonesia. The reserves are of medium and high grade. The half of New Guinea island occupied by Indonesia has bauxite reserves of one billion tons. The annual output of bauxite is more than 6 million tons. It is high-grade bauxite and is easy to mine, totaling 2.9 Billion tons. Those that have been mined in history are not included in the statistics. The gold reserves in New Guinea are at least 10,000 tons. The total gold reserves of the giant gold mines, copper and gold mines that I know of exceed 100 tons of gold, and the total gold reserves exceed 10,000 tons. There are also hundreds of large, medium and small gold mines. The silver reserves are more than 40,000 tons, including those that have been mined in history, and the copper reserves are more than 400 million tons, mainly the symbiosis of gold, silver and copper. As of 2026, more than three billion barrels of crude oil have been mined and proven in New Guinea, and there are still many newly discovered oil fields that have not yet been proven, estimated to be tens of billions of barrels. Making single-base smokeless gunpowder requires sulfuric acid and cotton, while double- and triple-base smokeless gunpowder requires sulfuric acid, cotton, and nitroglycerin. It is better to add nitroglycerin and reduce the amount of cotton. At the peak of World War II, Germany did not occupy cotton-producing areas. A small amount of wood could be used to make smokeless gunpowder. Smokeless gunpowder made from high-quality military wooden paddles could produce rifle and pistol bullets that were about nine-tenths as powerful as cotton smokeless gunpowder, and machine gun shells that were about eight-tenths as powerful as cotton smokeless gunpowder. The logistical pressure of wood-paddle smokeless gunpowder is more than twice that of cotton smokeless gunpowder. In places with a lot of moisture, it is more likely to deteriorate and the logistics pressure is greater. Wood-paddle smokeless gunpowder is also highly corrosive to weapons. In 1943, Germany's high-quality military wooden propellers were seriously insufficient. Substandard but barely usable wood was added to the smokeless gunpowder, which made the power weaker and the failure rate of the chamber soared. Sulfuric acid is even more scarce. In addition to making smokeless gunpowder, sulfuric acid has many other uses and is in high demand. The raw material of sulfuric acid is sulfur, which is also associated with pyrite, lead-zinc ore and copper ore. Copper ore produces the most sulfuric acid, followed by sulfur. In addition to making sulfuric acid, sulfur also plays a lot of other roles. New Guinea has many volcanoes, a lot of sulfur, and rich reserves of lead, zinc and copper minerals. As long as there is enough labor, New Guinea can plant a large amount of coconuts, palms, sugar cane, rubber, jute, sisal, and jute. In addition to coconut palms that can extract glycerol, the mountainous highlands and lowlands of New Guinea are suitable for growing peanuts, and the mountains are the most suitable for growing peanuts. The highlands of New Guinea have more than 600,000 hectares of land suitable for growing soybeans. Historically, in 1942, Germany was seriously short of edible fats and oils and industrial fats. Jute is also an important strategic material and is used in large quantities. The coastal plain of New Guinea is suitable for cultivation. Price can be grown three times a year. New Guinea highland tomatoes are called the most delicious tomatoes in the Pacific and even the most delicious tomatoes in the world. There were many natural disasters in the Republic of China during this period. If the protagonist wanted to, he could attract tens of millions of immigrants. And there are also many German immigrants. Not counting the Austro-Hungarian Germans in the first half century of World War I, more than 21 million Germans immigrated to foreign countries. The small number of people in German colonies is purely due to bad policies. For example, for the same area of ​​land in German New Guinea, the coastal plains of German New Guinea are about five times more expensive than the land in the United States. The undeveloped mountainous areas in German New Guinea are twice as expensive as the plains of the United States. It is not yet possible for ordinary people to buy if they want. The threshold is high. The wages of white employees in German New Guinea are far lower than those in Germany, not lower, but much lower. The treatment is even worse, the working hours are longer, and there is no social security. White workers have to pay expensive travel expenses to go to German New Guinea. If the workers' families want to live in German New Guinea, they will have to pay a high monthly residence fee, and the workers' monthly wages are not enough to pay. The island of New Guinea has more than 40,000 square kilometers suitable for growing cotton, mainly the Ligoufre Plain in the south. This plain is 70,000 square kilometers, of which 26,500 square kilometers have a savanna climate. The climate is suitable for growing cotton and the land is fertile. Although cotton is not enough, it is still much better than Germany in history.

World War I and World War II were about resources and population. Technology actually has little to do with it, because the technology in Europe and the United States is basically at the same level. If one company has it, then within three months, the opponent will basically have it, and then it is a tactic of mutual consumption. In this case, it is impossible for Germany to win World War II one to many, not basically impossible, but just impossible. Unless Germany's population more than doubles, and resources can be self-sufficient, there is hope.

Some things are unavoidable, such as the war of Japan. It will inevitably be fought on the mainland and attack the United States. But in the European battlefield, you must copy the blitzkrieg of Poland and the blitzkrieg of France. The problem is here. If you don't want Italy, how will you fight against the red giant later? How far is it from your homeland that Yingzi and Laomei will land directly from Italy? The problem is that the place is mountainous. Do you want to blitz Italy? Or are you prepared to rely on the entries to be bold? Later, you and the United States, if you go against the times, what will happen to the United States and you? The key is that Britain and the United States can be regarded as the same pants, or you join forces with the Red Giant to fight against the combination of the United States, Japan, Britain, France and Italy? The key is that according to the urine of Tsarist Russia, are they really willing to give up Europe and turn their heads to Asia, which has not yet completed industrialization, and watch you eat the richest Europe? Just out of curiosity

The monthly vote is about to expire, and there is no book that I like to vote for. If I focus on writing about them, I will vote for this book. Brother, the author, please reply when you see it. In the Battle of Arras in 1917, at the critical moment when the German army was defeated, Kesselring, who was the artillery staff officer of the Bavarian Sixth Division at that time, turned the tide, gathered thousands of defeated troops, commanded more than 8,000 German troops to block the onslaught of more than 100,000 British troops, and organized a counterattack to regain some important positions lost by the German army and seal the breakthrough. If Kesselring hadn't turned the tide in this battle, 300,000 German troops would have been surrounded and annihilated by the British army. In the Emperor's Battle in 1918, when the German army was defeated, Kesselring, who was the staff officer of the Bavarian Second Army at the time, once again turned the tide and gathered 18,000 German troops to block the onslaught of 160,000 British troops and prevent more than 200,000 German troops from being encircled. In September 1915, in the forward highlands of Dargan, Model commanded 287 German troops and blocked the attack of 91,000 French troops. During the period of Model's command, the German troops suffered 63 casualties. French army archives record that the French troops who attacked Model's position suffered more than 7,300 casualties. Model held on for eight days. After Model was seriously injured and sent to the hospital, the French army immediately broke through the position. The German army urgently mobilized two field divisions for reinforcements to seal the breakthrough. In April 1916, Model was appointed as the acting battalion commander in critical situation. Model commanded more than 400 remaining soldiers to withstand the 14-day fierce attack of 120,000 French troops, preventing 180,000 German troops from being encircled and annihilated. The French army that attacked Model's position in 14 days of fierce fighting suffered 12,000 casualties, and Model's troops suffered 91 casualties. The French army's casualties are all casualties in the French army's original battle report. On April 25, Model was seriously injured and sent to the hospital. More than 40 minutes after Model left, the position was occupied by the French army. From April 26 to May 5, the German army invested 80,000 troops to retake the position originally held by Model. The German army suffered 27,265 casualties and the French army suffered 21,095 casualties. In March 1918, the British army counterattacked at the Emperor's Battle, and the Walled Army was on the verge of collapse. At that time, Model was the captain's staff officer in charge of logistics. He happened to be here. On March 24, Model temporarily took over the command and commanded 390 German troops to block the onslaught of more than 70,000 British troops. Until March 30, the British army was repulsed by Model, preventing three German divisions from being surrounded and annihilated by the British army. The German troops under Model suffered 47 casualties, and the British troops attacking Model suffered more than 5,400 casualties. 11 British tanks were completely destroyed. After the British army was repulsed, command was handed over to the new battalion commander, and Model continued to manage logistics and supplies. In the Battle of Hongta Pass in 1916, Scherner led 180 German troops to resist the eight-day fierce attack of 40,000 Romanian troops. The Romanian troops suffered heavy casualties and were defeated. In this battle, 54 German troops died and 2,895 Romanian troops died. From Romanian official statistics. In the Battle of the Alps in 1918, as a company commander, Scherner gathered the defeated Austro-Hungarian troops, led more than 600 German and Austrian troops to resist the 21-day fierce attack of 75,000 Allied troops, and successfully covered the safe retreat of a large number of defeated Austro-Hungarian troops. The records of Kesselring, Model, and Scherner were tampered with and compressed by the Junker nobles. After 1980, a large number of original files were dug out, and many of the records of the three men hidden by the Junker nobles were made public.

The German translation is Walter Krueger, and the English translation is Walter Krueger, which is actually the same name. First of all, let's talk about the meaning of this name. Walter (Walter) During the Germanic polytheistic period, it meant the ruler of the army. During the monotheistic period, it was downgraded a lot and became a warrior who fought for God. In the 19th century, Walter (Walter) added the meaning of carrying all the authority and divine power of the first-generation god-king Tivaz and the second-generation god-king Wotan in Germanic mythology. Only those who are loyal and righteous can receive blessings. The more loyal and righteous people will receive more blessings. Those who are disloyal and unjust will not receive blessings. Krüger (Kruger) originally meant a pot maker and a tavern owner. In the 19th century, it added the meaning of receiving gifts from the German mother goddess and local blessings, making it easier to carry the spiritual power of the German ancestors' blood and the power of the earth. All ancient Germanic names with the symbolic blessing of gods and ancestors require the user to match the corresponding virtues. Walter was given the highest moral requirements in the entire name system, and his ideal personality is almost perfect. Walter (Walter) has the highest character requirements: absolute loyalty, absolute selflessness, fairness and restraint, willingness to sacrifice himself for the group, giving up personal desires, and maintaining justice and order. It is the moral pinnacle that mortal heroes can reach, so that they can obtain the blessings of gods. Without a very high moral character, it is useless to be named Walter. Walter Krueger, a four-star general in the U. S. Army, was called the first general in the U. S. Army by MacArthur and the first general in the Pacific Army by Nimitz. MacArthur said that he "attacked quickly and decisively, defended tenaciously and resolutely, was humble and restrained in victory, and never failed." He is known for his "maximum victory at the minimum cost". He is considered the most outstanding tactician and strategist in the United States Army. He was a scholar of military history, a careful planner, and a gifted field commander. The combat operations he commanded were known for their low casualty rates. It is versatile in sea, land and air, and is very good at conducting intelligence and training special forces. In 1919, he was a wartime colonel in the U. S. Army with the permanent rank of captain. During World War I, the United States was severely anti-German, and he was also ostracized. He also felt disillusioned with the United States. If the protagonist is willing to reuse him, he can be recalled to Germany. Walter Krueger was born in 1881 in West Prussia, Germany. After his father died, his mother immigrated to the United States with him and his siblings in 1889. Kruger finished high school. Although he wanted to join the Navy, he was unable to do so due to his mother's objections. In 1921 he graduated with honors from the Army Academy and in 1926 from the Naval Academy with honors. He later also studied aviation. Promoted to major general in 1939 and lieutenant general in 1941, he served as commander of the Third Army and commander of the southern defense of the United States. In January 1943, he served as commander of the newly formed Sixth Army in New Guinea and Australia. The death toll of Japanese troops in the battles he commanded was generally more than twenty times that of the US military. In the Battle of Hollandia in April 1944, Kruger commanded the U. S. Army to land and attack Hollandia, the capital of Dutch New Guinea. There were 52,000 U. S. Troops and 11,000 Japanese troops. More than 150 U. S. Troops were killed and 3,300 Japanese troops were killed. The Battle of Biak Island began in May 1944. The Japanese army relied on the cave fortifications on the island to resist. There were 12,000 US ground troops and 11,400 Japanese ground troops. The U. S. Military killed 474 people and killed 6,100 Japanese troops. 11,000 Japanese troops were annihilated, and only a few hundred Japanese troops successfully escaped. In the early days of the Battle of Biak Island, MacArthur changed Kruger's battle plan, which resulted in heavy casualties for the US military and slow progress. Later, MacArthur agreed to Kruger's battle plan, and US casualties were greatly reduced. Battle of Noemfur Island, from July to August 1944, Kruger commanded 9,400 U. S. Troops to attack the island. The Japanese army had 2,000 combat troops, plus more than 3,000 logistics troops. The purpose was to seize the airport built by the Japanese army. 66 American soldiers were killed or missing, 1,714 Japanese soldiers were killed, and most of the rest were captured. In the Battle of Leyte Island, there were more than 80,000 Japanese ground troops and 200,000 US ground troops. Walter Krueger's Sixth Army lost 2,230 people and killed 56,263 Japanese soldiers. In the Battle of Luzon Island, from January to June, the U. S. Military invested a total of 200,000 ground troops, 287,000 Japanese army field troops, and tens of thousands of Japanese militia and puppet troops, excluding the navy. The U. S. Military commanded by Walter Krueger killed more than 5,400 people and killed 145,000 Japanese field troops. Militia and puppet troops were not included. Only the Japanese field troops killed were counted. The Philippine Campaign ended at the end of June, and Kruger was selected as the commander-in-chief of the ground forces to attack the Japanese mainland. Kruger and the Sixth Army prepared for the attack on the Japanese mainland. The Japanese Army in the Philippines was the most elite unit of the Japanese Army in 1945. It had the most elites and a high proportion of veterans. Even new recruits took longer to train than recruits in other theaters. The Japanese army coach Yamashita Tomofumi was called the first general of the Japanese army. In the Battle of Malaya, Yamashita Tomoe commanded more than 80,000 Japanese ground troops to attack 146,000 Commonwealth ground troops. The Japanese suffered 9,600 casualties and completely annihilated the Commonwealth troops. Among them, 62,000 white troops from the British mainland and Australia were killed and captured. The U. S. Military consumed more than 1.2 Million field artillery shells from January to May in the Luzon Island Campaign of 1945. During the same period, the Allied forces on the Western Front fired an average of about 700,000 field artillery shells every day. The ammunition supply of the U. S. Army in the Pacific was far less than that of the European U. S. Army, and the equipment was also much worse than that of the European U. S. Army. Walter Krueger once defeated Patton, known as the most powerful general in the US military, in a US military exercise. Walter Krueger firmly does not believe in Christianity or monotheism, and he is not even willing to pretend. Walter Krueger cared about the soldiers, shared the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, listened to the soldiers, tried his best to meet the soldiers' requirements, improved the lives of the soldiers, and shared the credit with everyone when he made contributions, and would not monopolize the credit. After retiring from the army, Walter Krueger plans to buy a house of his own. His lifetime savings are far from enough to buy a house, which shows his integrity. Later, his subordinates learned that Walter Krueger could not afford a house, and they donated money voluntarily, so that Walter Krueger could afford a house of his own. Introducing the Alamo Spearheads, a special unit trained by Kruger. Their name comes from the Alamo Battle in the United States. The Alamo Vanguard was established in New Guinea in November 1943 and completed 106 missions without any attrition, death, capture, missing, or disability. The Japanese army killed American prisoners of war in Palawan Island. Kruger made a careful plan and sent Rangers and Alamo spearmen deep behind enemy lines on the evening of January 30, 1945, successfully rescuing more than 500 prisoners of war. This operation is regarded as a textbook case. There are 133 US troops, more than 200 Filipino guerrillas, a total of about 400 people, and more than 1,000 Japanese troops. One U. S. Soldier was killed, a military doctor was seriously injured and died the next day, and four others were injured. The U. S. Military and Philippine guerrillas suffered a total of more than 20 casualties, and killed more than 500 Japanese troops. Walter Krüger, SS General, was born in Strasbourg in 1890. The ability to command armor ranks among the top in the SS. The ability to command infantry ranks second among the SS. The static defense capability is considered by many to be the best in the SS. He is the first-class defense general in the German army. Recipients of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords are awarded medals for removal of individual ace and small-scale tactics and appeasement when relieved of duty. There are 47 generals who have been awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords for their outstanding achievements in commanding large corps. Some of them were awarded to appease aristocratic generals. Rommel and Dietrich were awarded as Mustache's extremely favored cronies. Although Rommel and Dietrich were awarded the award for winning battles, many generals who won battles on the same scale as him and won bigger battles than him were not awarded. Among the marshals who received this medal for their military exploits were Model, Kesselring, Scheerner, and Rommel. Although Manstein also had one, he did not win it through outstanding performance. Manstein fought a huge defeat. He commanded 2.07 Million German troops and servants but Zhukov defeated only 700,000. He suffered a disastrous defeat and was dismissed from his post. On the day of his dismissal, he was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords as a consolation. Guderian did not receive the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords. There are not many generals in command of large corps who have won the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords based on their hard-core achievements without relying on connections. Walter Krueger is one of them. Walter Krueger has a gentle and polite personality, always keeps a cool head, and is considerate of the grassroots, which makes him deeply loved by the soldiers. At the beginning of World War II, he was an SS colonel. He served as commander of the police division in 1941. From December 1941 to March 1943, he served as director of infantry inspection of the SS command headquarters. In April 1943, he served as commander of the Reich division. From October 1943 to July 1944, he served as commander of the Fourth SS Panzer Corps. From March to July 1944, he concurrently served as the commander of the Waffen SS of the Eastern Commissioner's Area, commanding the SS of the three Baltic countries and Western Belarus. In the first Sinavino Offensive in 1941, as the commander of the police division, Kruger commanded more than 10,500 police divisions to resist the attack of about 55,000 Soviet troops. The police division suffered 2,630 casualties in this battle, with more than 900 people killed or missing. More than 9,000 Soviet troops were killed in the attack on the police division, and more than 2,700 Soviet troops were captured. There is no record of the number of Soviet wounded. Historians estimate that the Soviet casualties should be around 20,000. The Battle of Courland The Soviet army invested a total of more than 300,000 combat troops to attack the Kruger defense area. Krüger served as the commander of the Latvian Army of the Sixth SS Volunteer Army at the time. The total combat force under Kruger's command was about 40,000. The Battle of Courland The Soviet army only recorded casualties in the fourth Courland Offensive, the fifth Courland Offensive, and the sixth Courland Offensive, with more than 160,000 casualties. The first, second, and third casualties were not recorded. The more than 160,000 casualties only count the Soviet army field troops, naval infantry, militia, and guerrillas. The casualties of recruits who have not yet been incorporated into the field troops are not included in the statistics. The second Courland Offensive, the fourth Courland Offensive, the fifth Courland Offensive, and the sixth Courland Offensive were all the main Soviet attacks on the Krüger defense area, and most of the casualties were caused by Krüger. In the Battle of Courland, two famous Soviet generals, Beloborodov and Chistyakov, focused on the Kruger defense area. In the list of 33 outstanding commanders of combined armies of all arms selected by the Russian Academy of Military Sciences, Beloborodov ranked 3rd and Chistyakov ranked 8th. Beloborodov, a top-notch attacker. Chistyakov is a tactical organizer with careful layout and balanced coordination of infantry and tanks. In the Battle of Kursk, Chistyakov commanded more than 70,000 Soviet troops and defeated more than 60,000 German troops commanded by Huth. Huth was a famous general on the same level as Guderian. During the Belgorod counterattack, Chistyakov severely damaged the right-wing corps of the Eighth Army commanded by Manstein. Krüger held off the fierce attack of more than 300,000 Soviet troops commanded by two famous Soviet generals and firmly held his position. After Germany surrendered, Walter Krueger committed suicide and died for his country. Friedrich Wilhelm Krueger, the younger brother of Walter Krueger, was born in Strasbourg in 1894. He was an SS general and was responsible for maintaining public security for a long time. He only went to the front line to command field troops in June 1944. In June 1944, he served as the commander of the SS Northern Mountain Division. During the Defense Battle of Lake Loch at the end of June 1944, two Soviet infantry divisions and five artillery regiments launched an attack on the SS Northern Mountain Division. The Soviet army lost 2,157 casualties in this battle, and the total casualties are estimated to be about 7,000. The 7,000 casualties were estimated by the German army based on the number of Soviet casualties. The German army could not count the total number of Soviet casualties, and the Soviet army itself did not record casualties. Modern historians have revised their opinion that the Soviet casualties in this battle were about 4,200, and the German casualties were more than 800. In August 1944, Friedrich Wilhelm Krueger was promoted to commander of the 5th SS Mountain Corps and became an outstanding mountain defense general in the later period. Although he is much worse than his brother, he is still valuable for training. After Germany surrendered, Friedrich Wilhelm Krügel committed suicide and died for his country. Walter Carl Willy Krueger, General of the Armored Forces of the Wehrmacht, was born in Zeitz, Saxony in 1892. He was a colonel at the beginning of World War II. Acting command of the 1st Armored Division from July 1941 to January 1942, and served as the official commander of the 1st Armored Division from January 1942 to January 1944. He was later promoted to commander of the 58th Armored Corps, and then to the commander of the military district, and finally surrendered to the Allies. In the early stage, he was an outstanding armored assault general, and in the later stage, he was an outstanding mobile defense general. The Wehrmacht battle report publicly commended his command ability. However, he only performs the tasks of his superiors and lacks his own record, so he is an excellent executive general. Finally, by the way, Admiral Spruance, the tactical ceiling of the U. S. Navy in World War II, was of German descent and his strategy was also outstanding. In 1921, Spruance was transferred to the Naval Engineering Bureau in Washington to be responsible for electrical technology management. He personally does not like boring shore technical positions, and is worried that he will be stereotyped as an engineering officer and lose his future as a front-line fleet command. The military pay was meager, the pressure to support his family was high, and his future was bleak. He seriously considered resigning from the military and went into business at sea, and was already weighing leaving the navy. His father-in-law even commented that he had an upright personality and was not suitable for the business world. After his wife persuaded him, he temporarily stayed in the army. You can also dig it out. Of course, it is up to the author to decide whether to dig it out or not. I only make suggestions.
