528 has never been stronger
"Stand upright!" All the German soldiers stood up in a pool of blood, and then greeted the German Admiral Raeder who boarded the battleship with the most heroic salute.
Raeder wore the most decent gown, and it was probably the happiest moment of his life.
From his time as commander-in-chief of the German Navy, Britain's mighty navy was like a wall that stretched in front of him and made him extremely oppressive.
Whenever he thought of the battleships of the British Royal Navy, as the commander of the surface ships of the German Navy, he was almost so frightened by that powerful force that he could not breathe.
Operation Rainbow in Scapa Bay turned into a sharp arrow and pierced the chest of the German Navy. For many years, as a member of the German Navy, when it comes to the British fleet, there is no talk of tiger color.
And now, stepping on the deck of this battleship, Raeder suddenly found himself talking about a tiger and a distorted enemy, and now there was nothing to fear.
The German Navy was closer to victory than at any time in history, and it was a great victory when Raeder was at the helm of the Navy.
By virtue of this alone, he, the marshal of the Navy, can definitely go down in history. Now he was extremely satisfied, and the corners of his mouth were raised.
On the docks of the harbor, behind Raeder is the majestic military music of the German Navy. In front of Raeder, standing were Germany's most elite soldiers.
The soldiers stood beside the corpse and greeted the highest officer they saw in their most upright posture.
"Gentlemen, thank you for your hard work." In order to be able to safely receive these warships, Raeder borrowed this special force from the Führer, which was not fully trained.
I heard that everyone in this unit has chosen the most loyal fighters, and everyone must have a combat record, be familiar with various weapons, and most of them can also speak at least one foreign language.
Each of these soldiers is delegated to the front-line combat unit, and can easily command the battle of an infantry squad or even an infantry platoon.
But here they are, they can only be soldiers. The most interesting thing is that even if you can only be a soldier, few people are willing to leave this mysterious army.
Stepping past the corpse of a British soldier, Marshal Raeder had seen Britain's newest battleship so closely for the first time.
The battleship HMS George V was the newest type of battleship to be commissioned by Britain before the war, and was equipped with a full 10 guns of 356 mm caliber.
If necessary, the design of the battleship allowed the Germans to retrofit the battleship with 380 mm or even larger caliber guns, but now the German Navy does not have any plans to convert battleships at all.
Even though he knew that the German Navy relied on advanced carrier-based aircraft and the aircraft carrier to win the naval battle, Raeder still liked the battleship under his feet.
As a traditional naval commander, he was born fond of battleships and loved this romantic feeling that belonged to men alone.
Obviously, the ships that the enemy surrendered and sacrificed were more pleasing than the ships he built.
So Raeder himself came, walking step by step on the deck of this mighty British battleship, watching this great battleship with great interest.
In the distance, the battleship Counterattack, which originally belonged to the British Royal Navy, was using a pumping machine to remove the water from the cabin.
As with this battleship, the British sailors opened a handful of sea clearances, flooding some of the Counterpunch's compartments.
A few minutes earlier, the Royal Navy's fastest battleship, the Counter-Attack, and one of the most powerful ships, the King George V, had become trophies of the German Navy.
Coupled with the Royal Navy's most modern and largest aircraft carrier, HMS Ark Royal, Germany is now well placed to form another fleet.
Actually, Raeder thinks so too. He was to form another strike fleet in the waters off Norway and the Netherlands to strengthen Germany's northern coastline.
Previously it relied entirely on carrier-based aircraft and torpedo boats, but now it has a fleet, a fleet of huge battleships and battlecruisers.
As for the aircraft carrier Ark Royal, Raeder knew that eighty percent of the Führer was going to be handed over to Lütjans to form Germany's first aircraft carrier fleet.
Raeder didn't have any annoyance when he thought about it. He had never had so much power in his hands, which made him, the marshal, very satisfied.
In northern Germany, Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands and other regions, Germany now had the battleship George V and the battlecruiser Counterattack.
Together with the German battleships Bismarck and Tirpitz, and two Scharnhorst-class battlecruisers, Germany had six capital ships.
If the treaty between Britain and Germany was signed, including battleships such as the Rodney, the German Navy would have 13 capital ships, and the fleet would be large enough to dominate the Atlantic.
Even, once Germany has such a powerful fleet and takes over the Strait of Gibraltar, Germany's power in the Mediterranean will directly surpass Italy.
When attacking the USSR, relying on such a powerful fleet, Raeder's navy could pass through Turkey, attack the Sevastopol region, and directly threaten the hinterland of the USSR!
Thinking that he could have so many capital warships, Raeder couldn't help but feel a little fluttering.
"Stand upright!" In the area of the bridge, the German Navy has already taken over the work. The place has been cleaned up, the bodies have been carried out, and the blood is being cleaned up.
Seeing Marshal Raeder walk in, the naval officer on duty shouted the order to stand up with his chin held high. Everyone stood upright, waiting for the marshal to arrive.
Raeder walked over to the steering wheel in the middle of the bridge, looked at the harbor in the distance, and nodded in satisfaction.
The majestic military music still looped on the docks, and the Dutch locals watched the British naval flag slowly fall on the masts of the battleships.
The locals, who had been allies of the British a year earlier, had seen the vast fleet of the British Royal Navy, which was almost invincible.
The battleships that looked like mountains were once their backers and dependents in the fight against the German Army, but at this moment, they were hunting in the sea breeze and replaced with the battle flag of the German Navy.
"The body of Marshal Charles is on the third level of the ship's hull...... a naval officer walked over and reported the latest progress of the work.
The sailors were scrambling every corner of the cabin to beware of the British sailors sabotaging the ship by any means.
For example, planting explosives in inconspicuous places is a very dangerous method. Normally, there is no clue, but once the battleship is hit, these explosives can become a terrible force to sink the battleship.
Unfortunately, the search for dangerous goods ended up in vain, because the Germans were too strict, or perhaps the British were too attached to their ships, so they did not carry explosives to their ships.
Thinking about it, if they had explosives in their hands, it seemed that they would not be so embarrassed to use them at the moment of rebellion.
"I won't look at him, and if possible, send his body back to England for burial. To treat a warrior, you must treat a warrior like a warrior. "Raeder was going to give his opponent a decent funeral, and he felt it was what he should do.
Compared with the tragic land war, the battle at sea has always carried a little chivalric romance, with a hint of human flash.
After the German submarine sank a British merchant ship, it invented a code telegram to report the location of the shipwreck and notify the British Navy to come to the rescue.
The British Navy would also rescue the survivors of the German submarine officers and men who had fallen into the water and send them to their own prisoner of war camps to wait for the victory to be decided.
……
Just when Raeder was full of ambition, standing on the bridge of the British battleship, feeling the glory. In the office of the head of state of the Prime Minister's Office, Li Le also heard the news of the safe arrival of the warship in Hong Kong.
He knew that the shortcomings of his combat effectiveness at sea had been filled, and the current Germany no longer seemed to have too obvious weaknesses.
If the British naval heritage could be safely received, then Germany would not have to add more naval warships in the short term.
By settling down and focusing on the development of the army and air force, Germany's industrial production capacity will be more concentrated. Once a production cycle is in place, the integration of production capacities across Europe is absolutely powerful.
"What we have to do now is to sign an armistice agreement with Britain as soon as possible, so that the handover of the navy can be completed as soon as possible." Li Le looked at Ribbentrop and said.
Then he paused, thought a little, and then continued: "The British must take advantage of this conflict, and my opinion is that they must not back down, and continue to adopt a high-pressure posture to destroy their will!" ”
Ribbentrop nodded and said to his Führer: "The British have agreed to the treaty, part of the agreement has been signed. ”
"Don't be careless! Nothing can be done carelessly until our army enters south London! Li Le was afraid that Britain would once again take the lead and play the old trick of delaying time and insisting on the war, so he warned his subordinates.
At any time, before the enemy is completely knocked down, don't be careless, it is the quality that a qualified strong person should have.
Since he is a soul from the 21st century, Li Le naturally knows how many movies there are in which the bad guys chatter endlessly, and finally waste a great opportunity to kill the protagonist.
"We must take the initiative and tell the truth first, and don't let the British side distort the facts." After ordering Ribbentrop, Li Le waved his hand and gave the order to evict the guest.
Because outside the door, there was another person he wanted to see. So he had to end the conversation as soon as possible to save time for the next meeting.
Watching his foreign minister walk out of the room, there was soon another knock on the door.
