Sometimes things just happen to happen. When you want something, it happens to appear.
For example, when you forgot to review, you just grabbed 2 questions at random. As a result, the teacher happened to check the questions you jotted down, and then the whole class did these two questions and got them right.
There are very few people, and you are one of them. So, you were praised by the teacher, who praised you for your serious and solid review at the parent-teacher meeting.
For example, you and your roommate went to surf the Internet all night happily, and ended up falling asleep in the dormitory during class the next morning. But it happened that the teacher in class was serious and rigid on weekdays, and he was called by name every day, so he happened to be in a happy mood today.
, no names were called. So all of you in the dormitory were lucky enough to escape.
For another example, just when the entire German leadership was looking forward to a small-probability event like defeating the British Royal Navy, the telegram of Lütjens and Raeder's victory was sent back to Berlin.
That's right, looking at the senior leaders of Germany, apart from Reinhardt who confidently hoped that the aircraft carrier tactics would be able to surprise and defeat the British Empire's real main fleet, none of the other generals were optimistic about this matter.
Let's talk about Brachy and Catherine. Although one of them is the commander of the army and the other is the commander of the air force, neither of them is the commander of the navy. However, the two commanders have some ideas about the level of their country's navy.
In the eyes of the generals, the only advantage of the German navy is that it has more and stronger carrier-based aircraft than the British fleet. It is similar to the famous Cheng Yaojin's three-axe in the East. Once it is used up, there is nothing left to take.
Take action.
Putting aside the air defense and anti-submarine capabilities, the average level of German warship artillery strength is far inferior to that of the British Navy. If the two armies were to fight in close combat, the German High Seas Fleet's chances of winning would be slim.
But even with only these three tricks, Reinhardt still resolutely invested the entire High Seas Fleet in this battle, firmly placing all the bets of the German Navy on this game, and ordered the High Seas Fleet to rely on aircraft carrier tactics to fight hard.
war!
The moment they got the victory telegram, everyone turned their shocked and admiring eyes to the head of state who was sitting firmly on the mountain. There is nothing more valuable than this. When everyone was uneasy, the sharp eyes of the head of state had already pierced the eyes.
Break through this eternal fog of war!
He was well strategized and determined to win thousands of miles away. Before the war even started, he was convinced of victory, so he bravely and resolutely invested all his wealth.
Reinhard saw the reactions of everyone in the conference room. He just smiled faintly, his eyes shining with wisdom, and quietly looked at the route map of the High Seas Fleet's North Sea operation, with a light breeze between his eyebrows.
The light clouds give people the feeling that they have seen through everything.
A group of dead-headed people. If the carrier-based aircraft in the distance cannot defeat the British fleet, won't this head of state order the entire army to retreat immediately?
Do you really think I’m as rigid as you?!
Yes, this is Reinhardt’s real confidence.
Lütjens's First Squadron was originally composed of the fastest warships. If there was a real emergency on the carrier-based aircraft, but it happened to collide with a ghost and failed to win, Lütjens could turn his head and get away.
Far away from the British fleet.
Fighter combat is far away. Even if they lose, the warships in the rear can still escape in advance. Furthermore, the Zeppelin-class aircraft carrier, which has lost hundreds of carrier-based aircraft, can further increase its speed and reduce the load on the aircraft carrier.
As for Redl's Second Squadron, although the types of warships were complicated and complicated, and their speed was slowed down, they were also in the rear, farther away from the front line, and the distance they had to cover when retreating was shorter, so there was no problem of being unable to escape.
Even if they are really about to be overtaken, use the various captured multinational warships of the Second Fleet, plus the fleet of the Norwegian allies as cannon fodder, and cooperate with the two powerful new German "Imperial Class" battleships to block the attack.
It's also more than enough.
After the losses of the backward cannon fodder battleships are almost enough, and the blocking time is enough, the "Empire-class" battleship can escape with its super high speed.
The speed of the "Imperial-class" battleship has long been verified with the immature "Peter the Great".
The defective "Peter the Great" given to the Soviet Union was able to overwhelm the British fleet with its speed during sea trials. Now, the two "Imperial-class" battleships with truly mature technology have no worries about being outmatched in speed.
The British fleet.
Of course, these are all things for later.
Think about defeat before thinking about victory. This is the biggest skill Reinhard learned from General Sickert, and it is also an excellent quality that a leader should have. Although Reinhard is convinced that aircraft carrier tactics are almost the same in this era.
Bugs (loopholes) exist, but after all, he is not an omniscient and omnipotent God, and cannot guarantee that no unexpected situations will occur.
Therefore, whenever Reinhard was instructing an action that departed from the original history, he would consider every possible way out and would not ignore the one percent possibility of failure.
This is also the reason why he has always stayed up late and worked overtime since the beginning of the French War. There are too many deduction results and corresponding solutions for future wars that require him to consider and give instructions. Every battle can be said to have unlimited development possibilities.
, so the accompanying files will also be endless.
"Everything is as expected." Facing the admiring looks of a group of generals, Reinhard pretended to be sophisticated and said with a smile: "Long before the fleet pulled anchor and set sail, the outcome of this battle was already
Destined outcome. Predicting war has always been my strength. In the past 20 years, I have never made a mistake!"
Indeed, every decision made by Reinhard made the believers around him believe in one thing again and again - the head of state can foresee the future, and he will not lose to the super deduction of any professional general.
ability!
Sometimes, even iconic generals such as Manstein, Rommel, and Guderian, who have already demonstrated their talents and have been worshiped by countless soldiers, will lament that if the head of state does not enter politics, but stays in the army, he will definitely
Become a top commander who can make any so-called famous general inferior in comparison.
Think about it, in peacetime, Reinhard could rise all the way up and become an army general. In a real war, maybe he would have become a marshal with medals on his chest.
"My head of state," Brauchich stood up with great shame at this time: "You have once again proved to us that you are an unparalleled strategist. Regarding my disobedience to your will and the unauthorized suspension of armor,
Regarding the troops, my subordinates are really full of guilt and regret."
Brauchic now really feels that he was simply a fool back then. He refused to obey the instructions issued by the omniscient and omnipotent head of state, and insisted on changing the instructions of the head of state on his own initiative and calling a halt to the army.
Doesn't this mean leaving the correct answers without copying them and making up a wrong answer to fill in the test paper?!
