Chapter 143: Goal Accomplished

In the humble lounge, there were only Lu Yuan and Hitler, and Hoffmann had been driven to guard the gate by Lu Yuan under the pretext of confidentiality. "Your Excellency, take a look at this plan, and after reading it, you will have a general idea of what I am talking about." Lu Yuan took out a document bag from the box under the bed and handed it to Hitler, who opened the file bag and pulled out a thick stack of documents from it, looking like there could be twenty or thirty sheets.

Hitler only looked at the first few pages of the document, then raised his head and looked at Lu Yuan with a serious face, "Young man, do you know what these things mean?" It is not easy to hit the economy of a country, not to mention that there are so many countries involved in your material that Germany does not want to face the same situation as it did after the First World War. Hitler's tone was very serious, but Lu Yuan knew that the hero in front of him was just testing himself, because there was no one in this world who was more eager to conquer the whole world than him.

"Your Excellency, with all due respect, Germany's geographical location has fundamentally restricted the possibility of Germany wanting to go global, and besides, Germany's local resources are not abundant, and it cannot rely on local resources to support the rapid expansion of the German army. The purchase of resources from outside will inevitably consume and occupy too much government funds, which will not only aggravate the excessive consumption of government funds, but also cause contradictions between the military and military enterprises. ”

"My plan looks very complicated, but in reality it is the simplest, it is nothing more than to find some master counterfeiters, and then gather them in a tightly controlled territory to counterfeit the currencies of various countries as realistically as possible. Places such as London and Paris are not the main cities targeted by the plan, and the direction of the implementation of this plan should be placed in colonial cities and regions. Even if the counterfeit banknotes of small denominations were detected by the bank, they would never spend a greater effort to track them down, not to mention that by the time they found out, the materials purchased with these counterfeit banknotes might have already arrived at German seaports. ”

"We can even make arrangements in advance, install some people in some large cities in advance, and use restaurants, shops, bars, cinemas and other places with a lot of people as a cover, little by little to take small denomination counterfeit banknotes to the bank to exchange for large certificates of deposit. In this way, those small denominations of counterfeit banknotes have become 100% safe bank deposits, and as for how to use those bank deposits to buy the goods that the Empire needs, I think the Empire's commercial department will think of a better way. ”

Lu Yuan's account sounded very general, but Hitler listened very seriously, he was especially interested in Lu Yuan's talk about how to launder money, and carefully looked at the information planned by Lu Yuan, Hitler was very silent for a while. In fact, as early as October last year, German intelligence had drawn up a plan to counterfeit counterfeit banknotes, but this plan was not approved by a high-level meeting of the government. At this moment, Lu Yuan once again came up with such a plan, and Hitler was actually tempted.

"Boss, you said that if we are like this, will the SS see through it?" Seeing Hitler's motorcade leave the No. 3 barracks, Lu Yuan, whose back was already soaked with sweat, had not completely recovered before he was carried back to the workshop by Schuhmann and Hogg, and Hogg was even more nervous at this time. Lu Yuan shook his head gently, in fact, he had no bottom in his own heart, and he dared to act in front of Hitler, Lu Yuan was also apprehensive.

"Hogg, keep your composure, as long as we don't say anything ourselves, how will the SS know. If the SS had already found out about something, then why didn't they just arrest the three of us? Besides, the boss had been alone with the Führer for so long, and I guessed that the SS must have known nothing, and we were just as usual. Schuchmann turned his head to Hogg and said, but the sweat in his palms completely betrayed himself.

"You two, don't scare yourselves, don't you see the Führer smiling when he leaves. Don't worry, as long as the Führer doesn't annoy us, the three of us will be safe, but I promised you to find a way for you to make money. Lu Yuan joked with a smile. Schuhmann and Hogg recalled that Hitler's expressions when he left, and they seemed to be similar to what Lu Yuan said, and then they finally put their minds at ease in disbelief.

I don't know if it was Hitler's personal order, but since after lunch, a large number of materials have been sent to Barracks No. 3, but all of these materials are used for rifle production, and there are no propellants and explosives that Lu Yuan urgently needs. "Lu, this is an order personally issued by the Führer, you can rest assured that you can develop your new rifle in the No. 3 barracks, the kind of anti-tank weapon you designed, the Führer has ordered it to be handed over to the Krupp company to continue research." Hoffman, who rushed to Barracks No. 3 with these materials, was a little embarrassed, after all, he had to take with him all the design drawings and data of Lu Yuan's anti-tank weapons when he left.

Lu Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief when he heard this, and smiled at Hoffman with relief, "Great, I have already suggested to the Führer in the morning, this kind of anti-tank weapon involves too much, and there is no way for the No. 3 military camp to complete independent research and development." It's not bad to hand it over to Krupp, after all, Krupp has such strength, but you have to remind them to pay attention to the propellant part, and it is best to pay special attention to the amount of propellant. ”

Lu Yuan's reasonableness seemed to make the already guilty Hoffman even more embarrassed, and under Hoffman's instigation, Lu Yuan had to be "embarrassed", and under the witness of Hoffman, he made a few small requests to the engineers of Krupp who accompanied him. "I need a hundred 6.5 caliber rifle barrels, fifty Mauser rifle caliber rifle barrels, I don't want ordinary barrels, but want Krupp to help me specialize in the production of these barrels with special gun steel and naval gun technology. In short, what is the quality and standard of naval guns, what kind of standard and quality are these barrels I want, I hope that each one can shoot 200 rounds in a row without deformation and loss of accuracy. ”

"In addition, I also need ten heavy barrels of 12.7 caliber, and these ten heavy barrels are naturally also made of cannon steel, and the length of each one must not be less than one meter five." Lu Yuan's small request sounds nothing to the people of Krupp Company, and there may not be many other things in Krupp Company, but when it comes to high-quality cannon steel, it is the most. Under Hoffmann's proof, the engineers sent by Krupp agreed to Lu Yuan's small request very happily, and Lu Yuan also handed over the design drawings and data of anti-tank weapons to the other party without reservation.

"Boss, why did you only ask Krupp for a bunch of barrels? That's Krupp, why don't you ask them how many cannons they want? Hogg was very puzzled and asked Lu Yuan, who was full of joy at the moment, and the latter only cared about being happy, and did not answer Hogg's question. After a while, under Hogg's resentful gaze, Lu Yuan, who gradually recovered from his joy, smiled at Hogg.

"Hogg, you don't understand. If we ask for cannons, not only will we leave a bad influence on the Führer, but we will not be able to transport the cannons safely to China, and even if we can transport the cannons back, how can you sell them? Don't take the Japanese for a fool who eats dry rice. I do this, naturally, I have my purpose, you just wait to become a rich man. Lu Yuan's answer made Hogg even more confused, and he never got the answer he wanted from Lu Yuan's mouth.

The Krupp company took away the information and design drawings of the anti-tank weapons, and Lu Yuan now only had how to improve his assault rifle, because with Hitler's favor and special instructions, Lu Yuan also received some new materials sent by Hoffmann one after another, and the aluminum alloy that has been continuously studied by the German metallurgical research department for decades is one of them. Compared with the aluminum alloys used by the Americans in daily life, the aluminum alloys studied by the Germans at a deeper level seem to be more recognized by Lu Yuan, although these aluminum alloy materials cannot really be used in weapon research and development, but Lu Yuan used them to make magazines and slides on the gun body to fix the scope.

The magazine made of high-hardness aluminum alloy is much lighter in weight, and even if Lu Yuan carries 8 of them, it will not be much heavier than the original 5 magazines. It's a pity that Lu Yuan's magazine made of aluminum alloy did not pass the live-fire training, and after the magazine made of alloy was repeatedly reloaded, there was often a gap between the gun body and the magazine, resulting in a jamming phenomenon. Lu Yuan had no choice but to give up the idea of reducing the weight of the rifle, and then changed back to the original design.

In Lu Yuan's busy day and night, a week passed quickly, and Hoffmann, who came again, also sent the barrel specially produced by the Krupp company. The one hundred and sixty barrels were divided into three boxes, and the first thing Lu Yuan looked at was not the fifty Mauser rifle caliber barrels, but the twelve .7 caliber heavy barrels. Each heavy barrel with a length of more than one and a half meters weighs more than the barrel of a heavy machine gun of the same caliber, and Lu Yuan picked up each of them and looked at them carefully, that kind of look, that kind of focused look, made Hoffman secretly remember it in his heart.

With a specially customized barrel, Lu Yuan's previous busyness became even busier, and in the small shooting range in the No. 3 barracks, gunshots rang out day and night. "Yes, very good, Schuchmann, you can also try it, after changing to this high-quality barrel, the accuracy and firing range of the rifle have been greatly improved." After testing the gun himself, Lu Yuan happily handed the rifle in his hand to Schuhman, as for Hogg, he was not interested in these things at all.

It seems that in addition to constantly improving his three rifles, Lu Yuan is no longer interested in other things, and even Hoffmann's invitation to go to Berlin to watch a movie is rejected during this period. Time passed day by day, and after successively finalizing the assault rifle and the close-range sniper rifle, Lu Yuan finally began to make the heavy sniper rifles he had always wanted, and those heavy barrels were prepared by Lu Yuan for his heavy sniper rifles.
