However, in terms of the navy, it was not the Führer who felt that he could really pull out a war with the British fleet to fight like that. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

You must know that since the famous Battle of Jutland, the German Navy has long lost the mind of a decisive battle with the British Navy.

At present, the German Navy is only thinking about the crooked and evil way of "secretly fighting a guerrilla war with the British Navy and sinking their merchant ships."

Although sometimes crooked ways can also play a lot of unexpected roles, it seems that if you want to rely on crooked ways to win the war, you seem to be too confident.

Li Le knew that the wolf pack submarine warfare advocated by Dönitz actually reached the tonnage of sinking enemy merchant ships in only two months, exceeding the desired value of manufacturing tonnage.

That is, from 1939, when German submarines entered the Atlantic, to 1945, when German submarines were driven out of the Atlantic, in more than 5 years, only two months, the German submarine forces completed their operational goals.

For the rest of the day, Britain and the United States used their huge shipbuilding industry and increasingly sophisticated anti-submarine systems to stop the German wolves from wreaking havoc.

In the last two years, the German submarine force became the most dangerous combat unit, making proportional exchanges in the dangerous Atlantic, similar to suicide attacks......

The effects of the surprise soldiers can often be reflected at the beginning, and the results will be very brilliant at the beginning.

But if there is no upright master to cover, the strange soldier will eventually become a lone army and become a breakthrough for the enemy's counterattack!

If the German surface ships were not so weak, the pressure of the enemy's counterattack would not have been on the submarine forces. Then submarine warfare can achieve greater results, and it is not impossible to change the outcome of the war.

Li Le looked at Raeder, looking at this admiral who no longer had the mind of a head-on decisive battle, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.

He clearly knew that the future naval war would be the world of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft, but he could not convince his subordinates that he firmly believed in all this.

He clearly knew that Bismarck in the Battle of Denmark, in fact, the British battleships did not have a battleship that could match Bismarck.

The battlecruiser Hood, which arrived in a hurry, was of course very clear about what happened to Li Le. If this time there was still an aircraft carrier in the German fleet, the course and outcome of the whole naval battle would have been completely different.

Li Le felt that by increasing his naval strength, he would definitely win more, and he might even severely damage the enemy's fleet.

But Raeder didn't know, he and his men didn't know that this could be the result, they were still living in the shadow of the Battle of Jutland, in the shadow of Operation Rainbow, and in the shadow of the British Navy's invincibility......

"Get ready to sail now! I need a complete combat plan! Including going to sea and returning home, emergency measures in case of enemy troops, and more! Li Le looked at Raeder and ordered solemnly.

Raise soldiers for a thousand days, use soldiers for a while! Li Le gave the Navy the best and completed the construction of the battleship Tirbitz ahead of schedule! It's time for the navy to show its fangs and be brave in this fateful war!

Raeder knew that he couldn't shirk it, so he could only speak depressedly, nodded and agreed to the Führer's order: "Obey, my Führer, I will come up with a plan of action as soon as possible and organize the fleet to enter the Atlantic!" ”

Glancing at Raeder, Li Le ended the conversation with satisfaction: "My marshal, make a plan of action as soon as possible, believe me, victory will definitely belong to the Imperial Navy!" ”

Hearing the Führer say this, Raeder squeezed out a smile in embarrassment - victory? If I don't get hit hard, I'll be satisfied!

……

The quiet of the town, shattered by the sound of noisy footsteps. On the road at the entrance of the village, groups of soldiers, carrying their own weapons, were advancing into the distance.

The soldiers wore military uniforms with large open collars, and were crowned with domed steel helmets with a distinctly undulating edge on their heads.

The Carcano Type 1891 rifle they carried on their shoulders was one of the standard armaments of the Italian Army.

As you can see the name, this Italian standard infantry weapon is a bolt rifle designed and produced in 1891...... No!

Born in 1891, this rifle is actually about the same performance as the Japanese Type 38 rifle, and even the caliber of the weapon is the same as the strange 6.5 mm.

Perhaps in the design, the Japanese also referred to this European "power". Germany, Italy's ally to the north, is using a different caliber of weapon.

Before the war, Italy was not idle, and the military's weapons designers developed a more advanced rifle, named the M38 rifle......

Then, this rifle, which was born in 1938, used another bizarre caliber of 7.7 mm! This bizarre caliber was also used by the Japanese on the Type 99 rifle.

Just like a tongue twister, the Italian Type 91 rifle uses the caliber of the Japanese Type 38 rifle, while the Japanese Type 99 rifle uses the caliber of the Italian Type 38 rifle......

But don't underestimate this rifle, which was born in 1891, was in service until 1981, when it was completely eliminated.

This kind of weapon is even called "South Africa's AK-47" in some poor countries in southern Africa, and it can be called such a name, which shows that it is still a very useful weapon.

Of course, the best weapon is a traditional bolt rifle that uses 6.5 mm caliber non-mainstream bullets.

Throughout World War II, as in most countries, there was no superior performance or criticism of the defects of the infantry weapons - mediocre and mediocre.

One by one, the Italian soldiers carrying such weapons continued on the path outside the village, and there was no end in sight.

From time to time, there were also some officers on war horses on this road, and some horses pulling carts, and heavy goods were piled up on the carts.

In the village, there were also some high-ranking Italian officers pointing at the surrounding mountains, as well as soldiers resting around them.

"The order we got is to let us cross the border, our military supplies are not in place, this kind of all-out war, we have no hope of winning." An Italian officer said with his hands behind his back, looking depressedly at the mountain peaks in the distance.

The officer in front of him was equally depressed, and nodded in agreement: "The leader has been driven crazy by the victory of the Germans, and he can no longer correctly judge the situation in front of him. ”

"The German victory in North Africa was so sudden, accurate intelligence, and a crisp assault, it really seemed like a dream." The Italian officer who spoke first wore a floppy hat on his head, while the Italian officer opposite him wore a steel helmet. At this time, the officer in the soft hat spoke and sighed.

The officer in the steel helmet spread his hands and continued to nod in agreement: "If I didn't know how few troops Rommel attacked, I wouldn't have believed that he only had that few troops. ”

"That's the most important question, okay?" The officer with the soft hat said: "The fact that he dared to attack with such a small number of troops shows that he basically judged the strength of the British......"

"When you say that, I did doubt it. Was it that the Germans had accurate information about the enemy's forces that dared to allow Rommel to launch a counterattack so desperately. The Italian officer in the steel helmet spoke.

The officer with the soft hat sighed and questioned: "This German is not interesting enough, I have the intelligence of the British, tell us in advance, we will not lose so much." ”

"You're thinking too much about it." The Italian officer with the steel helmet sneered and explained: "As far as the situation in North Africa is concerned, that is, we know the enemy's strength, is it capable of counterattacking?" ”

When he said this, he paused and continued: "Besides, if the Germans tell us this kind of information, who will believe it? ”

Hearing him say this, the Italian officer with a soft hat also had to nod his head and agree: "What you say makes sense." ”

No matter how sour, he had to admit that the Germans' intelligence could not be taken seriously by the Italians.

If it weren't for the fact that German intelligence had flowed out of the Führer and was pushed to use it from top to bottom, Germany itself would not have believed it, and there would have been intelligence to accurately judge the number of British counter-attack forces.

As a result, believing in the Führer, brought a brilliant victory for Germany. To this day, the whole of Germany trusts the Führer's intelligence, and according to it, wins victory after victory.

"But now, what are we going to do?" The Italian officer, with his floppy hat, continued to look at the mountains in the distance, and asked in his own words.

On this day, October 26, 1940, Italy's leader Benito Mussolini, despite the dissuasion of his men, prepared to launch a full-scale attack on Yugoslavia, a country on the Balkan Peninsula.

Because at this time, Yugoslavia, a powerful country in the Balkans, was still a pro-German regime, so Italy had always been hesitant to invade Yugoslavia.

Recently, however, Greece received the last reinforcements from the British, concentrating more than 40,000 Commonwealth troops to secure its borders.

And a series of victories in North Africa by the Germans stimulated the expansionist Italian leader Benito Mussolini, who hoped that he could get a head start in the Balkans and achieve the benefits he desired.

So, Mussolini forgot the promises he made to Yugoslavia during the previous invasion of Albania, and also forgot the fact that his troops were not ready for war.
