What kind of waiting is the longest waiting? Others are in the toilet and you are outside the toilet? Well, this is not the case. The feelings of the German navy lieutenant general Lütjens and the British lieutenant general Holland may be the kind of waiting outside the toilet.
There are a lot of coincidences in history that make people laugh, for example, now, although both countries have admirals, but in such an important naval decisive battle, the leaders who happened to be not the highest commander of the navy-coincidence What is the fact that the military ranks of the two people are both lieutenant generals.
Just on the German Navy ’s flagship carrier, the Empire ’s High Seas Fleet, the bridge was busy. Some people were confirming the fleet ’s position and guard ring, while others were asking if the guard ship behind had found the position of the British Navy.
Lütjens raised his head and looked at the clock hanging in the conductor's room, striking the table anxiously, his expression tight and expressionless. How anxious his heart is, only he knows. The pressure to make this decision is driving him crazy.
The admiral lowered his head and stared at his fingers, seeing the pair of hands that had been so firm and trembling at the moment. He knew that if he opened his mouth now, he would tremble even his lips and his voice would be out of tune. He was not afraid of the responsibility on his shoulders, but the dream of burying an empire.
He had an urge to take the case and turned his bow to fight a net with a British cannon. It's a pity that he knew he couldn't do this, because he didn't even have the qualification to fight a dead net, he only had to escape, only to escape with his life.
I don't know how many times. He raised his head again, looked at the wall clock on the wall, and looked at the minute and hour with a daze. He prayed that dawn would come soon, but he was afraid of the approach of dawn. Contradictory moods haunted my heart, and they were lingering and made people suffer every minute.
Because dawn was the moment when he started attacking, the carrier aircraft in the hangar had already hung the bomb torpedoes, and he was looking forward to the moment of dawn; however, he did not dare to expect the dawn, because the pre-dawn moment The moment of darkness may be the moment when the British battleship fired all its cannons and disappeared.
And on the British fleet flagship Hood, Lieutenant General Holland also kept pulling out his pocket watch, frowning at the time above. If there is a person in this world who can feel the feeling of the German fleet commander Lieutenant General Lütjens, then this person is undoubtedly Holland.
The same anxious wait, the same nervous and hesitant, the same urgent expectations, and the same fear of confusion. At this moment, they are indeed two brothers and brothers, each experiencing their own depression and fear. As the flagship of the fleet and the core of the entire fleet, now the battle cruiser Hood at the foot of Lieutenant General Holland rushed to the forefront of the entire fleet, and immediately behind him was another maritime giant— -The same is the reputation of battlecruisers.
Admiral Holland put down his pocket watch, because he found his hand was shaking, if the details of the excessive tension were seen by others on the bridge control tower, it would affect the morale to a certain extent-any one In detail, Lieutenant General Holland wants to be the best.
He had a obsession in his heart, which was the obsession of the Royal Navy of the British Empire for a hundred years. There was a figure in front of him, which was in the hearts of every sailor in the Royal Navy of the British Empire. He wants to shoulder shoulders with that hero Nelson, he wants to create his own legend of Holland!
The surface of the sea is still very dark, and nothing can be seen in the distance, but Holland knows that the German fleet is there, not far away. The hands of the clock have pointed to the number in my heart that looks forward to indefinitely. It seems that God is on the British side this time.
"Order the fleet, speed up!" Lieutenant General Holland stood in front of a window directly in front of the bridge. With a faint light, he could vaguely see the two magnificent turrets of the foreship of the battleship Hood The 381 mm caliber gun that doubled his confidence. This is his capital for victory over Dawn, and a guarantee for the future of the British Empire ’s sea power.
There was a news just now that a British submarine hiding near a Dutch port sent a telegram confirming that no German navy was found. This information greatly increased the confidence of Lieutenant Holland and also let him know that the German navy fleet must be in front of him.
So at this moment of destiny, at 2:41 in the morning, Holland issued his offensive order: "Turn on the boiler and boost it! The entire fleet sprinted at the highest speed! Pulled into the distance with the German Navy!"
And at 2:41, the German navy received bad news that made Lutjens dizzy. At the end of the team, the destroyer responsible for the alert returned the message with a signal light. At 2:37, the guard ship radar found the trailing British ship formation. It seems that the distance seems to be more detrimental to the German navy.
Lütjens took out his handkerchief and wiped it twice on his forehead. Then he propped himself up and walked to the chart table again. Using the distance ruler he had been using for many years, he measured the distance between the two sides again.
"It seems that the other party is speeding up, even if our military's ship turns around to release the torpedo, it may not work." Lütjens dropped the measuring ruler and stared at the chart. "Can only give up? Give up a few ships. Escort the ship, trouble to the British Navy? "
He knew that the destroyer would definitely not work, even if there were more destroyers, it would be impossible to slow down the behemoth such as Hood and launch torpedoes? If you fail to enter the range of 10 kilometers, you will be sunk, and you can't even reach the maximum distance to release the torpedo. Even if you are lucky enough to enter the distance, you will be killed by the destroyers and cruisers that rushed up. It is estimated that you can't see the real body of the Hood.
"Report!" An officer came in, his face was not very good-looking, he handed a telegram to Lütjens, and then reported the painful report: "The armored ship Admiral Spey is turning towards the rear . "
"The Admiral Spey call, I will call off! Please continue to lead the army north, long live the heads of state! Long live Big Germany!" Lütjens took the telegram, looked at the words silently, suddenly felt Something burst out of his eyes.
These naval officers did not lack courage, but they did not dare to make the future of the empire at sea because of their courage. When disaster struck, the soldiers of the Imperial Navy never lacked courage, as did the predecessors who carried out the Rainbow Project, as did the soldiers who are preparing for the Battle of the English Channel.
Following the turn of the Admiral Spey, there were two destroyers and a cruiser behind the palace. These warships equipped with only small-caliber anti-aircraft artillery did not hesitate to turn when they turned. They silently turned the bow. , With their weak bodies, blocked in front of the giant warships of the British Navy.
"The fleet accelerates! The speed is increased to 24 knots! Every effort must be made to postpone the time of war until dawn!" Rütjens wiped his face directly with his hand instead of using his handkerchief. The voice issued his battle order.
All warships began to accelerate, and the tragic atmosphere pervaded. Some naval fighter pilots demanded to take off ahead of time. They would rather crash into the sea and carry out a wave of air strikes on the British ship. But Lütjens rejected the request, and he wanted to save every combat power and greet his dawn.
Soon, the sound of artillery battles from both sides came to the rear. The German Navy relied on radar technology to fire first, but it seemed that these shells had little effect on the British Navy's battle cruisers. However, the first strike did cause trouble for the British Navy, and the entire British fleet had to reduce its speed to 24 knots.
At close range, the British Navy ’s Battleship Hood fired back and fired. The first volley shot hit the sea near the German battleship due to night sighting, but the second bombardment of the British Navy gunner showed himself The superb aiming technology directly hit the German cruiser that rushed over to launch the torpedo, and directly knocked this German cruiser in two.
Knowing that he was escaping, the German navy armored ship, Admiral Spey, did not flinch. He dropped the British giant ship and ignored the cruiser and the destroyer who bit the left wing of the British fleet. British light cruiser, but he was also paralyzed on the sea at the same time, losing the ability to continue fighting.
The main gun of the Counterattack hit the rear main turret of the Admiral Spey, which directly cut the tail of the battleship into two pieces, and the front main turret of the German ship was also hit by a British cruiser. Less than ten minutes later, this 10,000-ton battleship was hit by a fire and the entire hull began to tilt sharply.
The desperate German navy officers and soldiers are still fighting desperately, and the 150mm caliber artillery on the ship is still firing until it is finally scrapped into scrap iron. However, the British Navy did not have time to waste such a small fish, leaving only a cruiser to continue bombarding the German ship to clean up the mess.
Hearing the sound of gunfire getting farther and farther, watching the sky still dark, Lütjens began to have a desperate mood. Could it be said that the of the ocean is just an unattainable dream of the German navy? Could it be said that the invincibility these days is just a big dream? Could it be said that the name of the sinner of the German navy will be recorded in the annals of history?
why? Lütjens couldn't help but clenched his fists, he gritted his teeth and grieved loudly in his heart and asked: Why? Why don't I have a battleship?
