At the same time, Raeder also sent an outflanking fleet of destroyers and light cruisers to bypass the frontal defense line and weave in the direction from which Limer's fleet came at full speed, which was to encircle the formation behind Limer.

Information from both sides was sent to the High Command Exercise Command, although Hitler was once an army corporal, but he also liked naval warfare, and Hitler's disappointment with the navy in history was that the German navy had indeed made no achievements, and now Hitler also has certain expectations for the navy.

The general headquarters of the exercise is set up in the operations hall of the high headquarters, a huge sand table has been placed in the center of the war hall, and the fleets of the two sides have been placed in each other's current positions.

"Look at the arrogant boy of the Krupp family, who is still blindly rushing forward, but he doesn't know that Marshal Raeder has sent a fleet to take the back road."

"Yes! You see that more than 30 submarines of General Dönitz have already left the entire fleet, this is Dönitz's wolf pack tactic! More than 30 submarines went to round up together, and it makes people's scalps tingle to think about it, now I think Onde has no chance to turn the tables, and it is a matter of time before it is annihilated. ”

When Hitler heard Marshal Keitel's arguments, he asked, "Do you all think that Ondet is a mortal defeat?" ”

Marshal Keitel was not optimistic about Onde at all, his mind was still stuck in the era of giant ships and cannons, and of course he would not say good things about Li Mo.

"Of course, my Führer, I think Ondel will be annihilated, but because of his strange things, Marshal Raeder will lose a little more."

Air Force Commander-in-Chief Catherine is inclined to Li Mo both in terms of personal emotions and personal ideas. You have to know him, the commander-in-chief of the Air Force. It is won by all the traditional forces working together, among which the Krupp family has contributed the most. However, there is no way to compare the strength of the two fleets between Li Mo and Raeder, even if Li Mo invents some strange things. I'm afraid it won't change the fate of being annihilated, but Catherine's words won't say this:

"My Führer, there are many examples in history of winning more with less, and anything that is possible in war can happen."

"Hmm." Hitler agreed with Catherine's words, but how could Field Marshal Keitel get Hitler to agree with Catherine's words, in that case, it would mean that the strategic development direction of the entire German Navy would be transformed, and all the plans to build battleships would be rejected in favor of the production of damn aircraft carriers. This was unacceptable to Marshal Keitel, a giant ship artillonist. Field Marshal Keitel opposed Catherine, not that he and Catherine had a grudge, absolutely not, but they had different views, and the starting point was actually for Germany.

"Impossible, my Führer, to win more with less is a land battle! Naval battles are simply fantasy where less wins more, and naval battles have always been big ships beating small ships. Big artillery is better than small artillery, and I bet that Ondet will be surrounded and annihilated in this exercise. General Catherine, you dare me bet you. ”

What Marshal Keitel said seems to have made sense, and there is no example of a naval battle in which less wins more. Hitler, after listening to Marshal Keitel's words, turned his head to Catherine again to see how he responded:

"My Führer. I accepted Keitel's bet that if anyone lost, they would firmly support the carrier blitzkrieg. ”

"Good!"

……

Britain is also highly nervous at this time. Britain was not afraid of the German Navy, the British Navy was only the home fleet. The total tonnage was two or three times that of German ships, and if you add some fleets in the colonies, it is even more incomparable to Germany. At this time, Germany's military strength was rapidly expanding, the world economic crisis was still continuing, and Britain's domestic economy was continuing to slump, and the Chamberlain government must now try to avoid war in order to revive Britain.

Chamberlain's thinking cannot be said to be wrong, nor can it be said to be right, if Hitler fulfills his promise and will not claim other territories after recovering the Sudetenland, then Chamberlain's appeasement policy is right, but Hitler is obviously not such a person, how can Hitler be satisfied with this small Sudetenland, that is simply impossible, and this dooms Chamberlain to be a tragic existence.

In the council chamber of Buckingham Palace, the king and his wife summoned Chamberlain again, and George VI's stuttering problem was still being corrected, but this time he still spoke:

"Prime Minister...... You...... What do you think...... Germany...... Exercises. ”

Chamberlain was actually nervous in his heart, afraid that Germany would take the opportunity to make some big moves, then he would really be a British sinner, so Chamberlain prayed in his heart that Hitler would not make trouble. Chamberlain wiped the sweat from his forehead with a hand towel and replied respectfully:

"Your Majesty, according to the information sent by our intelligence officer 007 in Germany, Germany is indeed conducting naval exercises this time, because the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy and Ondet? There was a fierce conflict between Krupp's tactical ideas, Marshal Raeder believed that today's sea power was still the final word of the giant ship artillery, while Ondt believed that the current navy had entered the era of aircraft carriers, and the two made a bet to use actual combat exercises to decide the victory. ”

George VI was surprised and hurriedly asked:

"Prime Minister...... When will Germany ...... Got an aircraft carrier? What is the strength of the two sides of the exercise? ”

"Your Majesty, Germany has only one aircraft carrier, we don't have to worry about it at all, we already have six aircraft carriers, and this year we will start building seven aircraft carriers, and Germany will only have one aircraft carrier, and it took four years to build it, which is not worth mentioning at all."

Chamberlain: This is to dispel the concerns of the Kings that Germany has aircraft carriers:

George VI gave an "um" to show that he understood, and Chamberlain, who had paused slightly, continued to answer the king's question:

"Marshal Raeder led the absolute main fleet of the entire German Navy, which included more than a hundred ships such as pocket battleships, and more than thirty submarines, while Limer's formation was one Zeppelin aircraft carrier, six destroyers, six submarines, and two supply ships, with a total tonnage ratio of twenty to one."

"Ahh George VI was stunned, this difference in strength is really too big, such a naval battle can also be fought, is the kid of the Krupp family funny, the king was so surprised that he couldn't speak, and the queen next to him began to speak:

"Yes, the kid of the Krupp family actually has this courage and outstanding foresight, our British Empire has just begun to explore the theory of aircraft carrier sea power, and Ondet this kid has taken a bigger step, and he is worthy of being the kid that our princess likes at a glance."

"Ahem......"

The king and Chamberlain both knew about Princess Elizabeth's one-night stand with Li Mo, so they would not be surprised, but the queen said it so directly, which still made the two of them cough.
