December 4, 1940, Austro-Hungary, the small town of Mittersill
The Air Marshal is showing his power, and the Chancellery is also taking advantage of this incident. From Europe to Asia, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, the whole world is trembling because of the assassination in Berlin. Hans, the Alliance, Japan, Britain is all involved, and if we're not careful, the world war will expand further, okay?
But this series of chaos has little to do with Li Yunlong. Well, it can't be said that it doesn't matter. During a large-scale inspection of Potsdam, the Gestapo actually discovered heavy mortars and hundreds of rounds near Potsdam Airport. High-explosive grenades, which means that once Li Yunlong and the others prepare to land in Potsdam, they will be hit. Judging from this density of firepower, there is absolutely no possibility for Li Yunlong and the others to survive.
Today, Li Yunlong and his group of hundreds of vehicles arrived at the small town of Mittersir in the Austro-Hungarian region. Since Hans has annexed Austria-Hungary, this place is also Hans' territory in a strict sense.
Previously, Hans had sincerely paid one hundred tons of gold in advance to purchase the large-scale tungsten mine mentioned by Li Yunlong, so Li Yunlong had to fulfill this contract.
Arriving at the small town of Mittersill, Li Yunlong personally drove to a valley and commanded the guard company to skillfully bury half a ton of explosives, followed by a huge explosion. The mountain on one side was completely peeled off. Seeing this, Li Yunlong didn't say a word, leaving Colonel Rudolf and others who were still messy in the wind, and ran to the car to smoke. Don't say anything. , the Caribbean cigar presented by the Air Marshal, it tastes really good.
After a brief moment of consternation, Colonel Rudolf quickly ordered the accompanying Hans scientists to take samples for testing. In just ten minutes, the results came out. A scheelite mine with a tungsten trioxide content as high as 0.7% should not be underestimated. Looking at this content, you must know that the tungsten trioxide content in the two large tungsten mines in the Iberian Peninsula is only 0.091% and 0.3% respectively. Relatively speaking, 0.7% is already a rich ore. Of course, this However, the current test results of these ores cannot be determined to be the tungsten trioxide content of this mine.
The ecstatic Colonel Rudolf reported the news to Berlin urgently, and arranged for technicians to expand the scope of exploration. He wanted to grasp the reserves of this tungsten mine and the average content of tungsten trioxide as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the monk came over, Hand a tourist map to Colonel Rudolf.
I saw dozens of points marked on the tourist map, and each point was also marked with depth data. Colonel Rudolph still didn't understand that these were detection points and depths, so he quickly arranged for technicians to check the data.
In the evening, rough data were compiled in the hands of Colonel Rudolph. The scheelite deposit was divided into two areas bounded by Filber Creek. It is estimated that the ore reserves are more than 5.5 million tons, the average grade of tungsten trioxide exceeds 0.5%, and the tungsten trioxide reserves are more than 25,000 tons. According to Hans' current consumption, it is enough for them to use it for more than a hundred years.
Wang Yue is actually skeptical about this data. The data released by Hans in another world are very different from this. But the problem is that a scheelite mine that has been mined for fifty years can still mine 400,000 tons of ore every year. , you told me that the ore reserves here are only about 5 million tons?
That night, the Air Marshal personally rushed to the small town of Mittersill on behalf of that person, expressed condolences to everyone at the scene, and once again expressed his gratitude to Li Yunlong. Being able to completely solve the tungsten ore problem with one hundred tons of gold would definitely be a huge profit for Hans. Okay, don't forget that the mine is within the territory of Hans, but if it cannot serve this war, it will be of no value to them at all.
In order to maintain the greatest degree of confidentiality, the propaganda department announced that plague had appeared in the town of Mittersill, and then the SS sealed off the area. The Prime Minister's Office has given them the latest order, that is, no matter what the cost, At a price, 10,000 tons of tungsten ore must be mined that month, and in 1941, the mining volume of 500,000 tons of ore must be guaranteed.
At the same time, several papers by Hans scientists have also been released, indicating that they have made breakthrough progress in using molybdenum ore to replace tungsten ore. In the future, the proportion of tungsten alloy weapons in Hans military equipment system will gradually decrease. , until it was completely replaced by molybdenum alloy weapons. As soon as the news came out, the price of tungsten ore in the international market fell for a time, but it soon rose back up because everyone thought it was just the bluff of the Hans. How good are tungsten alloy weapons? Use it, otherwise we wouldn't have to compete with you for ore resources, right?
Li Yunlong didn't care about how the Hans used this tungsten mine. After chatting with the Air Marshal about their investigation into the British mastery of Enigma, he took people to Munich and even visited the Prime Minister's Office. Didn't even attend the celebration party.
When Li Yunlong came to Munich, he found John Rabe who was working here. The casual Colonel Rudolf was dumbfounded. How did you know that this person was here? We all have people like this who have been refrigerated by the secret police. It’s hard to find. How did you find it?
No matter how shocked he was, Colonel Rudolf had to report the matter immediately. As the attaché of Hans's embassy in the mountain city, he knew better than anyone how sensitive John Rabe was. It was clear that Li Yunlong was going to cause trouble. Rhythm.
Unexpectedly, the reply from the Prime Minister's Office was only one sentence, which was "full cooperation". In the past few days, Hans was exerting pressure on their Eastern allies. Naturally, he did not mind Li Yunlong adding fuel to the fire and commanding the Japanese whether they dare to turn against him or not. The Prime Minister's Office is not worried at all. They can just fall out if they fall out. That person also understands that the Japanese are very stubborn and will do great things in Asia even without Hans's support. In this case, do you have this? The covenant really had little impact on Hans.
That night, the Munich Grand Theater was brightly lit. Under the watchful eyes of thousands of representatives from all walks of life and Hansi military and political dignitaries, Li Yunlong awarded John Rabe the Order of the Blue Sky and White Sun on behalf of the mountain city government. In addition to the medal, there were also 10,000 bottles of Umbrella Penicillin and a ton of high-sugar compressed biscuits sponsored by the company were both requested by Wang Yue. On the one hand, he wanted to commend the other party's achievements, and on the other hand, he was worried that the history of another time and space would repeat itself in the other party. Such a person would eventually It is indeed a pity to die due to poverty and illness.
What everyone didn't understand was that Li Yunlong actually signed an authorization document with John Rabe on the spot. Li Yunlong purchased the entire copyright of "Rabe's Diary" with 10,000 silver dollars.
