Chapter 1790 Semi-General Mobilization

Zhong Yiyouyou said: "Germany has a population of 80 million. If it is added to Romania and other servant countries with deep integration, the total population size will even exceed 200 million! How many troops can it mobilize?"

Wang Geng said in a stern voice: "If a total mobilization is carried out, the 200 million people can mobilize at least 20 million troops! If there is a decisive battle in the local area, there can be even more!"

Zhong Yi nodded gently when he heard this.

This number is approximately similar to the total number of troops mobilized by the German army in another time and space.

However, in that time and space, Germany was forced to conduct a national mobilization until 1944, but did not take the initiative to conduct a national mobilization without gaining the advantage from the beginning.

Zhong Yi continued to ask: "So how many troops do Germany have now?"

Stilwell continued: "Now Germany has about 5 million troops on the Eastern Front of Europe, and the German troops who stay on the Western Front of Europe to serve as security and the African battlefield together have about 2 million."

Wen Yingxing said: "That is to say, the German army now has only 7 million, and there is still a margin of at least 13 million troops!"

Zhong Yi said: "Suppose that if Germany conducts a national mobilization and mobilizes and arms the 13 million troops in a short period of time, don't doubt that Germany has the strength. They have enough industrial manufacturing capacity to produce enough weapons and equipment to arm up to 20 million troops."

After pausing, Zhong Yi said again: "Please imagine what would happen if Germany mobilized and armed 20 million troops within one or even half a year?"

Stilwell and others suddenly shuddered.

After a while, Stilwell said: "Germany should not be mobilizing the whole country, because doing so can greatly increase Germany's military strength in a short period of time, but it will also cause serious damage to Germany. Moreover, the consequenceless wartime economy cannot last for too long. Once the Allies withstand the previous two years, Germany will be backfired immediately."

"It's hard to say." Zhong Yi shook his head and said Youyou, "I just hope the head of state will not pay attention to the Myanmar battlefield."

In another time and space, the head of state did not mobilize the whole nation until 1944. Zhong Yi only hoped that the head of state of this time and space would not change this decision because of him.

...

Wolfburg underground command post, Germany.

The head of state said in a deep voice: "Ketel, then have you ever thought that even if the empire mobilizes and destroys the Soviet Union in a short period of time, will the war be ended?"

"This..." Kettle was speechless.

I'm afraid no one dares to assert about this.

"So." The head of state said in a deep voice, "Even if the Soviet Union is destroyed, there is no guarantee that the war will end. At this time, Germany's national strength and military strength have been exhausted due to the general mobilization, and the allies, especially the United States, have not yet conducted the final national mobilization. So what will happen in the final result? It goes without saying."

"Yes." Keitel said bitterly, "At that time, without even the Allies attack, the empire would collapse and destroy itself from within, which is also an inaccessible disadvantage of the wartime economy."

"So, it is inappropriate to carry out a national mobilization now." The head of state said, waving his fist. "This is also the bloody lesson that World War I brought to our Third Reich."

After a pause, the head of state said again: "But it is necessary to carry out half of the general mobilization!"

"What?" Senior generals such as Kettle and Gorene looked at each other in a glance, half of them mobilized? What the hell.

The head of state said: "According to the estimates of the General Staff, adding some servants to the empire can mobilize about 10 million troops. It is unnecessary to mobilize all of them, but it is necessary to mobilize half of them! Let's do this, immediately mobilize 5 million troops and put 2 million of them into the Eastern Front battlefield."

"The Eastern Front battlefield is already in sight. Another 2 million troops are invested to attack from Kiev and Stalingrad, which should be enough to solve the last heavy army group of the Soviet Union."

"There are already 2 million troops on the Western Front for coastal defense, but it is still a little small. If another 1 million troops are invested, it should be enough. If there are 3 million troops on the coastal defense, if the Allies do not pay more than twice the heavy casualties, it will be impossible to open a second battlefield on the Western Front of Europe."

"In the end, haven't Rommel been complaining about insufficient troops?"

"This time, I will give him enough troops, give him 100 divisions, and then equip him with motorized infantry divisions, armored divisions and enough air force. But I must tell him that with these armies, he must solve the US and British allies on the African battlefield in the shortest time, and then seize the oil and gas resources in the Middle East as soon as possible!"

...

This major event in time and space has finally changed.

However, Zhong Yi didn't know about this yet, and at this time he finally returned to Meng Gong.

Since returning to China to Shanghai to study in 1932, Zhong Yi, who had been away from his relatives for 8 years, finally returned home again.

Zhong Yi's home is on the bank of a small river in the Menggong River Valley, with three connected bamboo buildings, kitchens, pigpens and cowsheds and other auxiliary buildings.

Since there was no road access, Zhong Yi had to get off the bus and walk.

A few hundred meters away, Zhong Yi saw his parents and younger sister standing in front of the bamboo building from afar. The eldest sister Zhong Qi is already married, and the younger sister Zhong Jue is eighteen years old and has already grown up graceful.

Seeing Zhong Yi from afar, the younger sister Zhong Jue immediately rushed over.

Looking at Zhong Jue who was rushing towards him, and then at the gray-haired couple in front of the bamboo building, the memory of this body surged out in an instant, filling Zhong Yi's entire thoughts.

"Little sister!" Zhong Yi couldn't help but open his hands.

"Second brother!" Zhong Jue hugged Zhong Yi's neck intimately.

Zhong Yi also held her younger sister's armpits and held her up, spinning like she did when she was a child.

"Yi'er!" Zhong's mother followed closely, and the tears in her eyes could no longer be controlled.

"Mom." Zhong Yi quickly put down his younger sister, then knelt in front of his mother and bowed respectfully three times, "Unfilial to you are coming back."

"Babe."

Zhong Yi kowtowed three more times to his father.

Zhong's father was a typical intellectual, otherwise he would not have thought of sending his son back to Shanghai to study.

The emotions of intellectuals are all reserved. Facing their son who has been away for eight years, they just nodded slightly and said indifferently, "Are you back?"

But Zhong’s mother’s emotions are much more enthusiastic.

"Son!" After Zhong Yi kowtowed to his father, Zhong's mother hugged Zhong Yi and started crying.

While crying, Zhong's mother also complained to Zhong Yi: "Mom heard that you have become a soldier and went to the front line, and she was worried that you would be terrified. But you still don't write a letter to your home all year round. Are you trying to worry about your mother and me?"

"Mom, my son is not good, my son is unfilial." Zhong Yi said, "You hit me."
