After a burst of laughter, Lu Teyans said to Cheng Hao seriously, "Cheng Hao, your idea is very feasible, your biggest problem now is how to transform theoretical knowledge into practical experience, a new ship in the fleet brings not only a change in combat power, but more importantly, whether the logistics can be guaranteed, and Bismarck has now awakened the spirit of the ship, oil, food, soul steel ......"

"When everything is not ready, rash action can sometimes be fatal, but you are still young, take advantage of this battle to train yourself, and look forward to your performance!"

Saying that, Lütjans got up and walked out, "I will report to His Excellency the Führer immediately, you and Bismarck should catch up with each other, you must know that the navies of the whole empire are now envious of your luck."

Looking at Lu Teyans, who was suddenly out of tune, Cheng Hao pulled the corners of his mouth and sighed, "Bismarck, let's go out for a walk......

Bismarck, who had been standing on the side without making a sound, heard Cheng Hao's voice, and immediately stood up and nodded, "Got it, commander" Seeing Bismarck with a serious face, Cheng Hao shook his head and grabbed Bismarck's hand.

"Well, Commander......" Bismarck's serious face flushed......

"Bismarck, do you remember that in this world, you are my family, do you understand what I mean" Cheng Hao suddenly turned his head to look at Bismarck's pale blue eyes......

"Hey......" As a soldier, Bismarck has a hard time understanding Cheng Hao's thoughts, as a traverser, Cheng Hao has too many things that he can't share with others, except for Bismarck.

This is also the reason why when Bismarck appeared in Cheng Hao's life, Cheng Hao suddenly became very hard-working, because he not only wanted to fight for his own fate, but also for the girl next to him......

"You don't have to answer my question now, think slowly, all my life, I've been ......"

Bismarck nodded, staring at Cheng Hao with confused eyes, with her current mind, it was difficult to understand Cheng Hao's deep meaning now, but Bismarck still subconsciously clenched Cheng Hao's hand, the commander's hand was very warm......

At this time, it was already raining and fogging in the Norwegian sky, and the cold air seemed to be able to condense even the air, Cheng Hao looked at Bismarck who was still wearing a short skirt on the side, and Cheng Hao hurriedly put his coat on Bismarck's body......

"Sir...... I'm the ship's spirit...... Bismarck glanced at Cheng Hao in surprise, and as he spoke, he grabbed his coat tightly, and the meaning was self-evident......

It seems to be a very tsundere Bismarck......

Cheng Hao smiled and didn't speak......

In the rain and fog, two behemoths of the German Empire sailed out of the harbor and headed for the ocean beyond......

Berghoff......

Admiral Raeder stood in the conference room stiffly, nervously said to the girl sitting in front of him, "Your Excellency, I can explain ......"

"Explain what?" Sitting in front of him was the Reich Führer, Leonie. Hai Lan, she put down the telegram in her hand and looked at Raeder with an indifferent face, "The two battleships of Scharnhorst and Gneisenau in the original plan have not been dispatched, and at present, there are only two ships, Bismarck and Prince Eugen, to carry out the Rhine exercise plan!" And most importantly, why didn't Scharnhorst and Gneisenau report back to me if they were damaged and could not take part in the battle? ”

Leonie. Hailan angrily threw the telegram in his hand at Raeder, who was standing aside.

"Your Excellency...... Führer" looked at Leonie with an angry face. Hailan, Reddle took a step back, and said in a hesitant voice, "Don't miss the opportunity, Britain is struggling in the Mediterranean, and the only way to cut off its supply lines is to take advantage of the situation......

"The best policy? Is your so-called best strategy to send the Imperial Navy to death? Or do you, like Goering, think that everything that can be sailed on the seas in the whole empire is yours? ”

Leonie. Hailan stood up violently and walked towards Reddell, whose height of one meter three made her have to raise her head to meet Rydel's eyes.

Leonie. "In World War I, I was just an ordinary army corporal, but my bravery earned me this Iron Cross of the First Class. ”

Said Leonie. Hailan pointed to the medal she had been wearing on her chest, "Do you know why I've been wearing it?" I just want to remind myself that I used to be only an army, although I am now the head of the Third Reich, but I don't know about other branches of the military, and I don't interfere, I have given you rights, and I have always respected the views of you generals and marshals, but how do you repay my trust in you? You've let me down so much! ”

Leonie. Hailan glanced at Raeder and said disappointedly, "I will personally deal with Lütjans's report, as for you, from now on, remove the position of Admiral and Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, and Dönitz will take the position, so reflect on it at home!" ”

After that, Leonie. Hailan strode out of the conference room, leaving Raeder with a gloomy face......

"Goering...... a sneer broke out of Raeder's gloomy face, and he left the conference room...... How ironic......

Commander of the British Home Fleet, John Brown. Tovey sat on the battleship King George V and fell into deep thought. Tovey received a report that a British reconnaissance plane had lost contact in Norwegian Harbor. Although it is a loss of contact, but John. Tovey knew very well that the plane had probably been destroyed by the Germans......

The loss of contact is just a nice excuse......

The lack of intelligence made John. Tovey only knew that the German ships included the battleship Bismarck, and as for the rest, Johann Murphy knew that the German ships included the battleship Bismarck. Tovey didn't know anything about the disadvantage of intelligence, so that John. Tovey had a headache.

John. Tovey knew very well that due to the fog, no matter how many reconnaissance planes were sent, it would be useless, so it was better to carefully analyze where the German ships would go. Tovey stared at the charts carefully, his fingers tapping on the table.

On 17 April, the Germans captured Yugoslavia and were crossing the Vardar River and advancing south.

The German mechanized forces drove straight into Greece, and the remnants of the British army retreated, fleeing from Dunkirk to the British Isles.

One vanguard crossed the Isthmus of Corinth and spearheaded the Peloponnese, while the other, aggressive, advanced into Athens. South Mediterranean Coast......

Known as the Desert Fox, Rommel's African Corps was divided into four routes, pressing from the coast of Cyrenaica to the British line. The last foothold of the Greeks......

The German army had ravaged most of the Allied territories, and now almost only Britain was stubbornly resisting the German attack, but the British mainland resources were close to exhaustion, and the maintenance of the maritime lifeline was already crucial to the survival of the British national fortunes......

On one of his sea charts, the routes of 11 convoys have been plotted. One of them, codenamed WS8B, was responsible for carrying 20,000 British troops to the Mediterranean.

The convoy, escorted by the battlecruiser HMS Counterattack, the aircraft carrier HMS Victory and seven destroyers, was sailing at the Irish coast at the Gulf of Clyde. Looking at the situation in the Mediterranean, John. Tovey judged that the German ship wanted to strike at the WS8B. Once successful, the consequences ...... Disastrous......

John. Tovey secretly made up his mind, and at the same time, if the German ships hid in Norwegian Harbor and watched the convoy in the North Atlantic, he would have to draw out heavy troops and monitor their movements at all times, and if the German ships broke through the blockade and broke into the North Atlantic, he would have to do everything he could to encircle and annihilate the strong enemy! It is absolutely impossible to let any problems arise with the lifeline at sea!

In order to maintain a tight blockade, Tovey decided to keep a watch on all possible shipping lanes through which Bismarck might pass, and to deploy a strong strike force on each channel.

Given that the shipping route between the Orkney Islands and the Faroe Islands was an unlikely passage for German ships, only aircraft were used here for searching. On the shipping route between the Faroe Islands and Iceland, Tovey deployed a cruiser force. He himself sailed aboard the battleship HMS George V, and led the HMS Victory and the Counter Attack to the seas.

In the Danish Strait between Iceland and Greenland, the heavy cruisers Suffolk and Norfolk were dispatched to patrol, and Vice Admiral Holland was led by the Prince of Wales from Scapa Bay on the Hood to support......

A fierce battle is about to break out!
