Chapter 1061
Chapter 1061
Arnold did not immediately understand what the Führer meant. He thought that this meeting had nothing to do with him. He himself did not know why he was named. So when the Führer mentioned him, Arnold was confused.
“Well, most of the areas we currently occupy are concentrated in North Africa along the Mediterranean coast. There is less rainfall here and the available land area is also small. Under this circumstance, it is not realistic to develop agriculture. Unless we occupy the fertile land in the south, otherwise, we basically have no room to play on the agricultural issues in Africa!”
This sentence was said frankly, but it sounded like shirking responsibility.
Mainz was not satisfied with this answer, but he did not lose his temper. Instead, he asked:”Rommel’s troops have just occupied a large area of land in East Africa. Do you have any suggestions for the development here?”
Arnold had studied this issue, so he answered calmly:”There are a large number of plateaus in East Africa. The eastern part of the Great Rift Valley of East Africa actually has poor geographical conditions. The plateau climate here is harsh and not suitable for agricultural development. However, there are some local specialty agricultural products, such as mangosteen, yam, sorghum and barley!”
After hearing what Arnold said about these agricultural products, everyone present was not interested. Europeans hardly eat these things, but Asians eat a lot. Europeans generally eat bread and meat, including beef and pork.
In fact, Europeans rarely eat agricultural products such as vegetables.
This eating habit was okay at that time, because the level of social productivity was relatively low, so the people’s meat intake was not particularly large, and not every household could eat meat every day, so the accumulated fat was not too much, and the obesity problem in society had not yet manifested itself.
However, in later generations, due to the intake of a large amount of high-calorie food, the obesity rate in Europe and the United States was very high, and obesity easily caused various diseases, which made the families of these patients bear a great burden, and the country’s fiscal expenditure, especially medical and social support, was also increased. The third empire is also under tremendous pressure.
Therefore, from the perspective of a latecomer, Mainz does not want the obesity problem of future generations to appear in the empire!
Although the Third Reich occupied a large area of the world by force, just like the Russian bear, as long as the strength of the Third Reich weakens, these occupied areas will soon become independent, and then the huge empire will collapse in a very short time!
In order to prevent this from happening, Mainz had to plan ahead. He could not tolerate a large number of obese people in the empire. These people could not serve as soldiers, could not go to the battlefield, and could not participate in heavy physical labor. If these people appeared in large numbers, it would be extremely unfavorable for the empire to maintain its hegemony!
And with the advantages that the empire has currently gained in the world, in the future, wealth and good things all over the world will Things will surely gather to the Empire faster. By then, the people of the Empire will be resting on their laurels, enjoying the good life brought by sucking blood from billions of people around the world. They will eat meat every meal, and a life of luxury will surely become a reality.
This is the case with the Eagle Sauce of later generations. It has only been a few decades since the Eagle Sauce sucked blood from the world, and the domestic population has become extremely fat!
Fortunately, the Eagle Sauce has a relatively large population. Although there are a large number of obese people in the country, in the absence of a world war, it is not a difficult task to maintain the high-quality soldiers needed for an army of about one million! However
, the population of the Third Reich was far less than that of the Eagle Sauce of later generations.
If the Eagle Sauce of later generations had the same obesity rate, the number of soldiers that the Third Reich could recruit would be greatly reduced, which would greatly weaken the military capabilities of the Third Reich.
, and if the military hegemony is lost, it will be difficult for the Third Reich to keep the land it has gained through force, and the good life enjoyed by the people will become a bubble!
Therefore, it is urgent and imperative to fundamentally change the eating habits and dietary structure of the people of the empire!
Compared with other countries in the world, the Celestial Empire in later generations is a very worthy object to learn from.
The people of the Celestial Empire consume a lot of meat.
Although it does not reach the exaggerated level of the Eagle Sauce, it is also much higher than the world average.
However, compared with other countries in the world, the obesity rate in the Celestial Empire is quite low.
The main reason for this is that the Celestial Empire’s dietary structure contains a lot of vegetables and fruits, and rice is also a low-calorie carbohydrate.
This kind of food is eaten a lot but the calories are not much, so it is difficult to accumulate fat and cause obesity problems!
However, for the German army, learning the eating habits of the Celestial Empire is a very disadvantageous thing.
The diets of European countries are relatively simple, and the dietary structure of the army is also quite simple. The main food is bread and meat.
Bread can be made from flour, which can be stored for a long time and is also easy to transport. Meat can be canned and stored for a longer time. Both foods are not easy to deteriorate and are easy to transport and preserve.
However, if the diet structure is changed to that of the Celestial Empire, it will be fatal.
The Celestial Empire’s army must eat hot food and fresh vegetables and fruits.
Without these things, the morale of the soldiers will be affected.
If there are no fresh vegetables and fruits for a long time, the combat effectiveness of the army will even be affected.
The trouble is that vegetables and fruits are not the kind of things that are easy to store and transport.
Both of these materials are extremely easy to damage and depreciate.
Therefore, the difficulty of the Celestial Empire’s military logistics is several levels higher than that of other countries’ armies.
The
Celestial Empire itself is a little easier to say. Their army only needs to fight domestically, and does not need to go abroad or even fight all over the world. In this case, relying on the convenient domestic railway and road transportation network, the Celestial Empire ensures that its logistics supply pressure is not very large.
However, the German military bases are all over the world. There are armies in Europe, Africa, North America and Asia, and the location of the army includes three climate conditions: temperate, cold and tropical!
In this case, the pressure of logistics supply is very huge!
If it is to supply vegetables and fruits, this kind of thing may not be done with the current strength of the empire!
