Chapter 62: Suspicion
Sebastian was stunned, and then a huge chill penetrated his body, Sebastian suddenly understood something at this moment, if this operation was carried out by Miss Bismarck, then there was no doubt that Britain would directly destroy our only large ship at present......
Even Altmark, who had already stepped into a mature body, was unable to materialize the projection after coming into contact with this spar, if it was Bismarck......
He turned to Sickert in a trembling voice and asked, "Does the captain know about this?" ”
Sickert shook his head with a wry smile and explained, "This is just a conjecture, I can't report it directly to His Excellency the Captain without conclusive evidence, and if it's a trap, don't you think the British are paying a heavy price for it?" That's why I've been hesitant. ”
Sebastian nodded in agreement, "Whether it is that spar or the naval version of Enigma that we got is very important to us, the impact of the former can even interfere with the normal state of the martial spirit, and the latter will mean that the British side has cracked our encryption channel, although I am very confident in Enigma, but this kind of thing still has to be taken seriously, once Enigma is deciphered, our wolf pack tactics may ..... So, what the hell are the British thinking......"
The irritable Sebastian kept walking around, and Sickert scratched his head on the side, "Let's wait for the captain to wake up and report to him, even if it's a trap, we haven't almost eaten the bait, and the price paid is within the acceptable range of the current situation." ”
Sebastian nodded helplessly, looked at the bad weather outside the porthole, and sighed, "It seems that this is going to change the sky......"
Under the baptism of the wind, the sea continued to form huge waves, and at this moment the Tirpitz was easily navigating the huge waves with the same Atlantic bow as her sister.
Due to the different operational concepts of the German and British navies, there are great differences in the design of warships between the two countries, especially in the bow.
Because the British fleet focused on the decisive battle of the fleet, under this kind of thinking, the battleship's job was to shoot passionately with the enemy battleship, in fact, the battleship was just a huge battery that could constantly move on the water, and only went to the battlefield during the decisive battle, and stayed in the port on weekdays
Therefore, the British fleet has very low requirements for the seaworthiness and endurance of ships, and in order to defend the British Isles, it needs a large number of ships to do it, so it chooses a low-priced, simple vertical bow.
Unlike the British, the endurance of the ships was very high because the German fleet was trapped in the Baltic Sea most of the time, and occasionally a few surface ships entered the Atlantic Ocean to carry out long break-up engagements.
The Bismarck-class battleships were not designed for a purely decisive battle of the fleet, but on this basis, the combat environment of the Bismarck-class was taken into account, and considering the scarcity of German surface ships, the Bismarck-class battleships would definitely fight in the case of their own numerical inferiority. Now that the overseas colonies have been completely lost, the warships cannot rely on the bases of the overseas colonies for replenishment like the warships of other countries in battle, and the huge hull gives the Bismarck-class good endurance, and the Atlantic bow is suitable for them to sail in the storms and waves of the Atlantic.
Unlike the Germans, who were at this moment's leisure, the commander of the Home Fleet, John Brown, was at the moment. Tovey frowned.
Looking at Jack standing in front of him, John. Tovey held back the doubts in his heart, and John Brown, who was the commander of the home fleet, was immediately the commander of the home fleet. Tovey also found it difficult to understand why the people of MI6 and the Governor's Palace would choose such an ordinary cargo ship to carry out the Ideal Township plan, but in the case of confirming the news with the country, Jack's identity as an ordinary crew member has been confirmed, and now it is useless to lament the failure of the Ideal Township plan, and the question now is how much do the Germans know about the Ideal Township Project?
Looking at Jack fidgeting in front of him, John. Tovey personally stepped forward, made a cup of black tea for Jack and handed it over, looking at the nervous Jack, Tovey had no choice but to whisper, "Don't be nervous, you are actually the greatest group of people in the British Empire, if it weren't for you and countless people like you to transport supplies for the Empire, we wouldn't be able to hold on to the present, you are the real heroes of this country." ”
I heard that John. After Tovey's words, Jack's body trembled involuntarily, for these ordinary sailors who are struggling to bring fresh blood to the country on the sea lines of communication, it is a kind of affirmation for them to be respected by the commander of the home fleet.
"Thank you, for your affirmation, do you want to ask about Bismarck?" John. Tovey didn't deny or nod, he picked up the blanket that had fallen on the ground for Jack, draped it over Jack, and said in a slightly apologetic tone, "I should have let you rest at this time, but I have one thing I have to ask you about." ”
"Is it about Barbossa?" Look at John. With Tovey's serious expression, Jack felt that there was nothing else to bother the resolute officer in front of him except Barbossa's problem......
John. Tovey nodded hurriedly, looked at Jack, who was a little nervous, and hurriedly asked, "What happened on the ship?" ”
"Before those Germans boarded the ship, we had thrown all the food we could throw into the sea, in order to prevent accidents, Barbossa was already in place in the telegraph room at that time, and when the Germans boarded the ship, we immediately sent troops to control all the crew members on the Black Pearl, but in the telegraph room for some reason Barbossa had a conflict with those German soldiers, and the telegram for help was sent in that environment."
Jack recalled, while giving Tovey a cautious look, "The captain of the Bismarck insisted that Barbossa was a member of MI6, and in that case, Mr. Barbossa ......"
John. Tovey sighed, all of this seemed to be deliberate, was that what the Germans had been aiming for from the beginning......
John, who does not give up at the moment. Tovey then asked Jack, "What about Mr. Barbossa's body?" ”
"Taken away by those Germans....." Jack's ears could still hear Barbossa's last cry, "Your Excellency, Bismarck......"
John. Tovey nodded, gritting his teeth and saying, "The Royal Navy will definitely make them pay their due." ”
