At the beginning, Loeb promised that Germany would send a mountain division when necessary, and they just listened to it casually as a joke at that time, you know, the weapons that Germany gave support had already made Finland extremely grateful, and without those weapons supported by Germany, Finland would have been unable to hold on to them.

Germany also sent some volunteers, but the number was not large, mainly flight personnel, and now, it is actually said that it will send a mountain division, which of course will make everyone excited.

Great, Finland is already very small, and it would be great if a mountain division came over!

"Really?" A Finnish officer, who was present, asked incredulously.

Loeb laughed but didn't say anything.

Containing the energy of the USSR and bringing more time to Germany is the policy formulated by Ciric, the integration of Europe, it will take time, and now, starting with the euro, it is just beginning.

It will take one or two years to integrate the whole of Europe and have a solid rear before we can continue to move eastward, and now further support for Finland is necessary.

What's more, Germany also needs to train its own army, which has the experience of fighting in cold regions, so it is also very useful for Germany, as for this mountain division, of course, like the previous plan, it will not send any pure-bred Germanic people over.

Within Germany, several foreign legions have been formed.

There are not many purebred Germans, and it is not enough to conquer the whole world.

Therefore, Germany had to expand its own troops, and the Foreign Legion mainly came from these aspects.

First of all, there is the Germans scattered throughout Europe, Germany was a territorial concept in the Middle Ages, and the establishment of the Holy Roman Empire and several Crusades made the Germans spread throughout Central and Eastern Europe and the Balkans.

These Germans volunteered to join the SS, such as the SS13 Waffen-SS "Holy Knife" Division and the SS39 Waffen-SS "Italian 1st" Division.

And even more numerous, the various volunteers in the German occupation zone.

Although their country was occupied by Germany, the public always admired the strong, and it took less than 20 years for Germany to achieve national rejuvenation, defeat the entire Western European countries, and the locals began to change their thinking about Germany, and even joined.

For example, the SS5 Waffen-SS "Viking" division, the French-dominated "Charlemagne" division, the Dutch "Dutch" division, and the "special brigade" composed of Danes, Norwegians, and British, etc.

Therefore, Germany already has a large number of foreign legions, and there is no problem in transferring a foreign army over, and besides, these foreigners are almost all staunchly anti-Russian, and no one wants to be red.

"General Loeb, please convey to me the highest respect for your Führer." Finnish President Kajander said: "When this war is over, we in Finland will join the eurozone." ”

This promise is quite weighty.

At present, the euro area is mainly occupied by Germany, and it can be said that once the euro is used, that country will lose the dominant function of currency, and its own economy will be controlled.

To put it simply, Finland is now independent, and if it encounters economic problems, the country can solve them by issuing additional currency, although there will be inflation, and many countries will do this.

However, once the eurozone is accessed, the issuance of the currency will be controlled by Germany, which will be detrimental to the country's economy.

In this era, there is no idea of great unification in Europe, countries hold their own small interests, where there are so many ideas of cooperation, annexing each other is almost the same.

In this way, the opinion put forward by the President of Finland carries quite weight.

"Okay, I will convey your opinion, now, let's join hands and drive out the Soviet invaders together, we must be prepared for a long time, take advantage of the cold of Finland, use the high mountains of Finland, and defeat the Soviets!" Loeb said.

He's confident.

At the same time, thousands of kilometers away, in distant Moscow, celebrations are taking place.

"Our tactics really worked, this time, it only took us one day to break through the Mannerheim Line!" Voroshinov said: "Comrade Stalin, your decision is really too wise! ”

At the beginning, it was Malyshev who proposed the tactics of the sea of tanks, and at the same time, in order to compromise with the cost, Stalin decided to mass-produce the T-34, and it seems that this decision is quite wise.

In this battle, they suffered heavy losses, more than 200 T-34 tanks and more than 80 KV-1 tanks, but this did not prevent them from appearing in a victorious posture, because they were finally able to completely break the defensive line in a short time, just like the Germans.

In fact, they only conquered one line of defense in Finland, but it was also significant and showed that such a solution was possible!

"Order Comrade Kotin, do a good job in the production of tanks, this T-34 tank, I hope to produce tens of thousands of vehicles a year." Stalin touched his beard and said.

Since the tactics of the tank sea are useful, let's continue to explode the tank sea! Get tons of tanks to destroy the enemy!

"Comrade Stalin, this is a good idea, however, we should also see that it is not safe to have only the tactics of the tank sea, and I suggest that we should develop newer tanks at the same time, to surpass the performance of the German tanks, which is also very important." Voroshinov continued.

By now, the mass production of the T-34 could not be stopped, and if the USSR had produced the T-34 in its entirety, then Kotin's position would have been quite awkward.

The KV-1 tank developed by Kejing is not enough to block the shooting of the opponent's anti-tank guns in terms of performance, and it is not suitable for mass production in terms of cost, so this kind of tank will eventually be eliminated.

This is quite unpleasant for the designer, and the best thing is to give him another model and let him continue to develop it!

Just now Voroshinov patted himself on the back, of course, for the sake of the following: "Comrade Kotin, having more experience in the development of heavy tanks, I propose, Comrade Kotin, to develop a new heavy tank with higher performance than the current KV-1 tank, as an elite in the army. Our Soviet tanks are the best. ”

Stalin nodded: "Yes, we need not only a sea of tanks, but also more advanced tanks." We cannot stand the fact that they are even more backward than the German tanks. ”

At this time, the entire Kremlin is very happy, no one will think about it, those tankmen who charged desperately in the battle, and finally died, each of them, have gone through more than ten years and twenty years, and consumed countless social resources before they came out, and treating people as consumption is the most unfair and the most unfar-sighted.
