Chapter 453: The Rainbow in England

"Commander, do you want to ....... Let's have a rainbow action too! Forbes' chief of staff, lowered his voice, leaned in and whispered.

That's right! If the Germans could blow up all the battleships with one Operation Rainbow, the British could do the same!

Closely, Forbes was about to give the proposal a loud applause.

However, after not being agitated for long, Sir Forbes found that their current situation was still different from that of the Germans.

At that time, although the German army was compressed to the limit, German soldiers were still left on every battleship.

But now, all the British officers and men were held in batches in the prisoners' lounges vacated by the ships of the Italian Navy, and were detained, unable to touch the ships that had been seized by the Italians.

"Nope." Sir Forbes shook his head and sighed: "I thought about it and found that our situation is different from the environment of the Germans at that time, and there is no way to imitate their success. ”

In fact, most of the so-called successology in later generations have the effect of beating chicken blood, and it is not really possible to make those who learn successology successful.

Everyone's success model cannot be replicated.

The success of an individual, or a team, requires a specific historical environment, an economic background, and opportunities that are available but not sought.

If you want to follow the old path of successful people and succeed once, most of them will not succeed.

Unless, that person's luck is very good, he really encounters the love of God, and the loser is the model of the previous successful person.

To use a simple analogy, Reinhardt went to the Bermuda Delta, was shipwrecked, and crossed it.

So, he relied on his understanding of the history of World War II and the automation knowledge he had learned, and happened to meet the eve of the outbreak of Operation Rainbow, seized the opportunity, decapitated in one fell swoop, and then rose through the ranks in the Weimar government, and at the same time used his golden finger to reform technology and military equipment, all the way to the present.

However, if someone suddenly asks for it today, he asks Bermuda Delta to try his luck and see if he can happen to cross it and change his life against the sky....... I guess the man will be taken for a fool.

Just kidding, not everyone is the protagonist of the book, all the way to the plug-in, with a golden finger, extremely arrogant all day long and always covered by people.

In the same way, the "Rainbow Operation", which the German Navy is good at, may not be played by the British Navy.

"Commander, I don't think so!" After listening to the chief of staff's advice, Forbes' adjutant also turned his head to look at Forbes thoughtfully: "There are no conditions to create conditions." Although the Italians kept us officers in a centralized manner, many of our junior soldiers were still kept in their original posts by the Italians to maintain the operation of the ships. ”

Since the Italian navy took over all the remaining British warships and a large aircraft carrier for a while, and the Italian officers and men were not familiar with the operation of the British ships, they wanted to bring this captured fleet back to China, and they had to temporarily use the British soldiers to maintain the navigation of the British ships.

The adjutant then moved between Forbes and the chief of staff, and whispered in a voice that only the three of them could hear: "As long as we can get back to the ships, maybe we can command our subordinates to quickly destroy the bottom of the ships and sink them." ”

"Is it possible to scuttle a battleship under the sight of the Italians?" Forbes dragged his chin with his hand and frowned.

"What's not to do, didn't the Germans complete Operation Rainbow under the nose of our Marshal Betty!" The chief of staff said very positively.

Field Marshal Betty, as the chief of staff spoke, was the British admiral who was ridiculed by Reinhardt as a psychopath, and was responsible for monitoring the German fleet.

At that time, if it weren't for the fact that prisoners could not be killed due to international law, it is estimated that Betty, who had always been hot-tempered and small-tempered, would have dragged Reinhardt out and shot him for an hour.

It's a pity that Betty held back her breath until the end and didn't find a way back.

Although Betty was promoted to Field Marshal of the British Empire the following year after Operation Rainbow ended, he never let go of the humiliation.

Of course, Reinhardt was actually frightened for a while afterwards.

In fact, Reinhardt hated and feared Betty, the executioner who led his troops to China in June 1900 and was famous for his fierce suppression of the Boxer Rebellion.

At that time, to put it bluntly, he was just a prisoner, and it was easy for Betty, as a British general, to kill him.

The reason why he was not pushed out and killed was really thanks to the support of the German naval officers and sailors at that time, and the support of General Ludwig, perhaps this made Betty throw a mouse trap and endure her cruel nature, and did not kill the arrogant Reinhardt like she did with those Boxer warriors on the land of China.

Later, Reinhardt, who ran back to Germany, was comfortable for a while.

At that time, in addition to a fat man named Churchill, there was also an old man named David Beatty, who was also paying attention to the young German.

Churchill was okay, he and Reinhardt had no grievances at that time, and he only observed Reinhardt out of curiosity.

Marshal Betty was different, he deliberately investigated Reinhardt, and he was almost angry to death in advance.

You must know that with her exploits in suppressing the Boxer Rebellion in China, Betty was promoted to colonel of the Royal Navy of the British Empire at the age of 29 at a young age.

Then, in another ten years, Betty successfully became the youngest rear admiral in British history in the past 100 years to obtain the qualification of commanding the flagship, breaking the record held by Viscount Nelson for the fastest promotion to a general by a non-British royal family.

However, after he heard that Reinhardt, who humiliated himself in front of the public, was promoted from a sergeant at the time of meeting to the youngest general in German history in only 5 years, the British field marshal finally vomited blood in anger.

Everyone in the world knows that Reinhardt's Operation Rainbow caused the British Empire to lose a fat captured fleet and miss the opportunity to stabilize the world's first navy.

However, few people know that because of Reinhardt's appearance, Operation Rainbow became even more dramatic, and the humiliated British Admiral Petain left a knot in his heart, and finally ended up with a grudge at the end of 1933 after watching his enemy Reinhardt rise to prominence for fifteen years.

Because of the long-term anger, a generation of British famous Betty was by Reinhardt 3 years in advance!

Not to mention anything else, just based on Reinhardt's windfall of relying on brazenness, Forbes they can't imitate it.
