Chapter 1742: Schell and Hipper

"The Kaiser representative is coming tomorrow. Ludendorff and Marshal Tirpitz are coming together. It seems that we must come up with a plan." In the office of the commander of the High Seas Fleet, Admiral Scheer looked at himself. Admiral Hipper, the commander of the German fast fleet opposite, said.

"I still retain my original opinion. This period is not suitable for attacking. We have no advantage, and we are fighting on the opponent's home court. And most importantly, the situation within our fleet is not suitable for warfare! People in the navy office arbitrarily conduct personnel affairs. Transfer, their part-time job is the British accomplice!" Admiral Hipper said angrily.

The so-called war is the continuation of politics. This statement cannot be wrong. Although the contradiction between Prussia and Bavaria has been temporarily suppressed, the results after the last secret war still have a certain impact on all aspects of Germany, especially for the navy. So. Under the instruction of the Kaiser, the upper German navy began to consciously clean up some Bavarian personnel in the fleet. Of course, this cleanup is at most changing positions. However, this is what caused the instability of the high seas fleet itself and the decline in quality!

War is a science, and the attitude toward science must be honest. He will not change because of the so-called "revolutionary needs" or "soul of Yamato". If it deviates from this line, the army should always kneel. Kneeling. As the "Bavarian" concentrated area in the high seas fleet-the German fast fleet, this situation is particularly serious. After replacing a group of low and medium officers, the combat effectiveness is even more reduced. If it were not for the high power of Hipper, With deep roots in the army, Scheer tried his best to protect him. I am afraid that the admiral from Bavaria will leave the fleet to sit in his office.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything. The aviation units in the German High Seas Fleet’s aircraft carrier fleet have not received any impact. The reason is simple. These units are "seconded" to the High Seas Fleet by the Kingdom of Bavaria. The internal personnel relations belong to Bavaria, not Prussia. , Prussia has no right to intervene in personnel affairs.

　　 "Major General Rodhart and the air team under his command refused to participate in the battle." After a while, Hipper said.

　　 "Why? Because of the terrible relationship between the two countries now?" Scheer performed in disbelief.

"If you want reasons, Major General Rodhart can make countless articles, but in the final analysis, there are two points. The first point is that Major General Rodhart's air force belongs to the Bavarian Air Force and the High Seas Fleet does not have the right to direct command. It was possible to command before because His Royal Highness served as Marshal of the Navy. The other is that the major general thinks it is not appropriate to attack now, neither in terms of equipment nor tactics." Hipper said.

　　 At this time, don't mention the "military power" of the Prussian General Staff. This thing is only available in theory. When it comes to reality, it needs to be analyzed in detail. If the Kaiser really dared to push the command system of the entire aviation team, let's not say whether there was any radical reaction from Bavaria. Anyway, this aviation team is completely abolished...

　　 "I'm afraid your Majesty may not be willing to listen to our explanation this time." Scheer said worriedly.

　　 "It doesn't matter, if William II wants the title of Commander of the Fleet, then just give it back to him." Hipper was very calm.

"Hippel, you have changed a little for me. You are not the Hippel I knew and admired before. You gave up your life's career, you gave up your glory and duties!" She You finally got angry. "We are not fighting for a certain individual, we are fighting for the empire, for all Germans."

"You should talk to William II and the Junker nobles about this. He is the initiator of this incident. They are not thinking about how to make the cake bigger, but about how to grab the cake from others in their own hands! I despise this kind of person the most." Hipper made no secret of his dissatisfaction and anger in his words.

　　 "Well, this question, let's put it aside, this is a high-level business, it has nothing to do with us." Scheer tried to ease the atmosphere. "I also disagree with the attack under the current circumstances. So far, there is not even a complete plan in my mind. How do we break this blockade? The fleet attack on the Shetland Islands is not realistic, the greatest possibility That is, while we were attacking the Shetland Islands, we were ransacked by the large fleet, fighting on the opponent’s home court and the fleet that was significantly stronger than ours. This is ruining the high seas fleet."

　　 "To tell the truth, I think the prerequisite for the high seas fleet to attack is that Prince Ruprecht takes over the actual command of the fleet, otherwise, no one can lead this fleet to defeat the British." Hipper said.

The only consensus reached by Scheer and Hipper in this conversation is that under the current circumstances, the German High Seas Fleet is not suitable for attack. Scheer is preparing to draft a document describing the current difficulties ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and Hipper You are responsible for stabilizing the mood of the current Bavarian High Seas Fleet personnel. After all, regardless of whether the fleet strikes or not, Scheer and Hipper are unwilling to allow political influence to spread to the fleet.

"There are also the guys from the Social Democratic Party. A lot of rumors came from them, not only the fleet, but also the port staff. They have been a bit too active recently, and we just couldn’t keep them all locked up. !" At the end of the meeting, Admiral Hipper suddenly remembered something and said.

"Social Democrats? There is a lot of trouble in their parliament. Some people in the fleet are also in series. If it were before, I would not care about their actions. But now, when the contradictions between the two countries begin to become prominent, this unhealthy trend is indeed problematic. "Admiral Scheer frowned and said.

　　 "This must be paid attention to. I have mentioned this matter with His Royal Highness. He thinks there is a conspiracy." Admiral Hipper said.

　　 "It seems that our pressure is not only from the British and the Kaiser. There are also our enemies in the Parliament building in Berlin." Scheer shook his head and said. "I will pay attention, but, at least for now, we must first deal with the special envoy of the Kaiser. In addition, if possible, I hope you can communicate with His Royal Highness. After all, the current blockade makes the empire weak. Even if we cannot solve the problem fundamentally, we must at least make this blockade less tight."

　　 "As for the Kaiser, there will be nothing wrong with me," Admiral Scheer said.
