Bismarck

And, most importantly, would the captain travel thousands of miles to China?

It’s incredible to think about it, especially with so many sailors following them.

Although Bismarck thought that it would be best to surrender to China, at least he could live in peace...but the difficulty was really great.

If there are no particularly big changes in the future, it will be almost impossible.

Thinking of this, she sighed slightly.

It would be best if Germany had not been defeated...

What she didn't know was that when she was "suffering from insomnia", Lütjens also had trouble falling asleep.

After talking with Bismarck, he was also thinking about the future of Germany - although in the eyes of later generations, this was already Germany's most glorious time. It had just been immersed in the joy of victory in a great war, and no one would believe that Germany would fail - including Lütjens, who did not believe that Germany would be defeated.

He was worried about other things.

There is no doubt that the British Expeditionary Force has completely failed. Britain has also lost a large number of its manpower and is unable to launch military operations on the European continent in a short period of time. It is only a matter of time before the victory at Dunkirk leads to the surrender of the great power France.

But behind the victory, as a maritime power, Britain's army is not its main force. As long as the navy is there, it will not surrender. Germany wants to transport its forces to the British mainland, which requires strong naval support, at least to maintain an absolute presence in the English Channel, and also to have a large number of transport ships - and the only warships they can show off are Tirpitz and Bismarck.

Lütjens believed that these two warships were the most advanced, but they had limited impact on the overall strength of the navy. In addition, the Bismarck was still under overhaul, which greatly reduced the overall combat capability of the navy. Even if France surrendered in the end, the German front could only reach the sea at most, and it could not use the French base as a springboard to attack Britain.

This is a very uncomfortable situation - the British can come to the continent at any time, but the Germans cannot cross the channel.

Logically speaking, if Germany put all its national strength into building a navy, it could have fought against Britain under the guidance of the Tirpitz and Bismarck battle lines, but this was impossible because the polar bear on the Eastern Front was also ready to move.

Although the Soviet Union and Germany signed a non-aggression pact, everyone could see that the two countries were not on good terms with each other - in the past, Poland served as a buffer zone in between, but now... the two countries are almost face to face.

Both sides deployed troops on the border, guarding against the opposite side.

Lütjens was not from the Army High Command, but he knew that several Soviet border divisions were undergoing large-scale equipment changes. If they were to wait until the equipment changes were completed, their strength would be greatly enhanced. Whether the German Wehrmacht could resist would become a suspense (historically, the mustache took advantage of the fact that the Soviet Union had not yet completed its equipment changes. If it had not taken advantage of this opportunity, it would be hard to say who would invade whom.)

Lütjens had no particular prejudice against the GCD, but he knew that in the eyes of the Führer, the GCD and the Jews were on a par with each other. Especially during World War I, the German GCD played a very disgraceful role as a guide, which made the Führer hate it deeply...

However, if Germany and the Soviet Union finally fought, they would be caught in a situation of being attacked from both sides. Even if Germany was now unstoppable and could not find a worthy opponent on the European continent, if it was surrounded by two major powers at the same time...

In fact, Lütjens was worried about a third aspect, but this trouble seemed to be far away from them, so he just thought about it briefly.

This concern comes from a country across the Atlantic Ocean - the United States of America.

During World War I, this cunning country watched the fierce fighting on the European continent, made a fortune from the war, picked up a huge bargain, and took the opportunity to develop its armaments on a large scale.

If Bismarck had not reminded him (thinking of this, Lütjens couldn't help but think of the tempting scene of Bismarck just now) and he had paid special attention to it, he would not have discovered that the country opposite had developed into this state.

Even though Germany has now created a huge wave on the European continent, the diplomatic relations between the United States and Germany have not been severed. A few days ago, the German Embassy in the United States sent a notice reporting that US President Roosevelt approved the plan for ten aircraft carriers and six 45,000-ton battleships. The US naval strength is not inferior to that of Britain. If more than a dozen main battleships are added - deploying them in the Atlantic will definitely be a big problem.

But it has just been approved, and actual construction will take several years, so it is not an imminent issue - and whether a war will break out is also a question.

In addition to the external environment, there are also internal problems of the navy, army and air force, the relationship between the army and the head of state, and so on. A series of problems are also lurking in the dark like hidden time bombs...

So, although they have won the battle, Lütjens understands that it is not really the time to celebrate the victory.

This is the current situation...Lütjens sighed.

"Good morning, Captain." Bismarck greeted Lütjens who was coming downstairs with him with a smile.

"Hey, Captain, did you not sleep well last night?" Bismarck suddenly stopped and stared at Lütjens' face for a while. "You have dark circles under your eyes."

"Yeah, I didn't sleep well." Lütjens nodded. "You look very energetic."

"I don't need to sleep." Bismarck walked up to him with a smile. She didn't dare to act too boldly since Krupp was downstairs.

"General, the Propaganda Department just called and they were looking for Miss Bismarck."

"Oh?" Lütjens walked to the dining table and sat down. "I see. Just ask them to pick her up at home."

"Yes." Krupp nodded and left.

"Eat or not?"

"Eat!" Bismarck also sat down and picked up the bread.

"You don't have to go to the Navy Department with me today. Follow the people from the Propaganda Department when you get there."

"kindness."

"Krupp, what time is it?"

"They said to come at nine."

"Should I prepare anything?" Bismarck asked. "Like clothes or something."

"Well, the Propaganda Department said they will prepare these young lady."

"Okay." Bismarck nodded.

Chapter 180: Heading to William

Although Bismarck's current clothing is a bit similar to military uniforms, it is also completely different, and is even more different from what female soldiers wear today - now German female sergeants basically wear military uniforms that are similar to the suits that girls wear in the workplace in later generations. They wear a boat-shaped hat on their heads, and occasionally wear black stockings on their legs, but they still look conservative.

Therefore, her dress was really quite bold compared to the generally conservative World War II, especially the short skirt from her lower body to her hips, which was not much longer than the hem of her top and could not cover her two long white legs at all. Occasionally, when she exercised a little more vigorously, she could see some scenery, which was even more sexy and seductive.

In addition, Bismarck's facial features were much more delicate than those of German women of that era. She was tall but not bloated or stout, and the proportions of each part of her body were just right. She was thin where she should be thin, and big where she should be big. In World War II when women were generally big and strong, having such a girl was certainly eye-catching.

It was based on this that Reger did not hesitate to recommend Bismarck. Although there were many ladies in the Navy Department, and many of them were secretaries, he searched his mind and found that Bismarck seemed to be the only special case in the Navy Department. The others were just ordinary people, just a little younger.

In the past, whether on the ship or elsewhere, no one said anything out of consideration for Lütjens's face. But since they were going to take promotional photos, how could he appear on camera in that state? So when the people from the Propaganda Department arrived, they brought a suit for Bismarck, and to be on the safe side, they had suits of all sizes.

Bismarck chose a set of clothes that was 170 square meters and changed at home before following them out.

The car was a bus similar to a modern school bus, with a long protruding head in the front. Bismarck took a look and found that it was from Opel.

"Miss, please come this way." Since it was a propaganda campaign led by the navy, there were naturally naval officers present. A young man stood at the door and guided Bismarck into the car - a lieutenant, whose rank was actually lower than Bismarck's.

After getting on the bus, she found that there were quite a few people on the bus, including photographers, logistics personnel carrying bags, men and women. The woman was wearing a military uniform similar to Bismarck's, but as soon as Bismarck got on the bus, she attracted everyone's attention - the men stared at her face with fiery eyes, while the women were a little complicated, with both envy and jealousy.

Even after taking off the sexy clothes and wearing an ordinary military uniform, her foundation was still there. Her delicate face and proud figure were enough to offset the difference in the clothes.

Bismarck was a little embarrassed. It would be fine if she was the focus outside, but in such a small space... She looked at the officer who brought her up with some helplessness.

"Ms. Bismarck, please sit in front of the director." The young man blushed a little and quickly pointed to an empty seat for her - a window seat in the front left row.

"Thank you." Bismarck nodded slightly and sat down quickly.

Sitting next to her was a male model, and in the back row was the director in charge of the photo shoot.

"Are you the Bismarck recommended by the Navy Department?" The director was a middle-aged man with a beard, about 40 or 50 years old. When he saw Bismarck just getting on the car, he was stunned by the man's appearance. He thought that the person recommended by the Navy Department would probably be similar to the other female models in the car, and should look like that, but this was beyond his imagination.

He carefully looked at Bismarck in front of him and found that although she was tall, she did not look rude. Her every move was elegant, and there was a heroic spirit in her eyes that ordinary girls did not have.

"Yes, I am Bismarck." The seat blocked many gazes, and Bismarck relaxed a little.

"It's the same name as the battleship." Director Asilao said.

"In fact, I am the secretary on the Bismarck."

"Oh, I see."

Asilao suddenly realized that it was from the Bismarck, so no wonder there was that aura between his eyebrows.

The other models were either girls from the Logistics Department or the Communications Department, and some of them were not even soldiers. How could they have experienced the cruelty of war? Although the girl in front of him was just a secretary on the Bismarck, she had survived the hail of bullets. Naturally, others could not compare with the Bismarck.

Asilao felt that perhaps the one recommended by the Navy Department was the most reliable one this time.

The male model next to him was also from the navy. When he heard that the girl next to him was from the Bismarck, he was immediately in awe - after all, in the navy, the Bismarck can now be said to have become a legend.

Born on the Bismarck and so beautiful, he couldn't help but secretly glance at the girl next to him twice, his eyes were fiery.

Unfortunately, Bismarck did not focus on him.

"Sir, where are we going to shoot?" she turned and asked the director.

"You don't know?" Asilau asked curiously, "We are going to Port William."

"William?!" Bismarck said in surprise. "It's so far, how long will it take us to be out?"

She originally thought that she would only be away for a few hours, and she wanted to go out for dinner with the captain in the evening... If she went to William, that might not be the case.

Sure enough, Asilao said, “We’re going to be out for three days, going back and forth on the highway, and filming for a day.”

"Ah, it's been such a long time..." Bismarck was speechless. If he had known what clothes to change, he could have changed them there.

"Going to William? Is it going to Tirpitz?" Bismarck asked, remembering something.

"Haha, yes." Asilau nodded. "Originally we wanted to go to Hamburg to photograph the Bismarck, but your battleship was said to be too badly damaged. Later the Navy Department suggested that we photograph the Tirpitz. Anyway, both ships are the same."

"That's true, but the Tirpitz was also damaged in the Battle of Dunkirk. I was on the Tirpitz at the time."

"Really? Is the damage serious?" Asilau's heart was lifted. If the Tirpitz was also severely damaged, a large part of the filming in William would not be completed this time.

"It's not serious. It shouldn't be a problem if the photos are not taken very carefully." Bismarck said after thinking for a while.

"That's good, we'll just go and take some shots." Asilao said with a smile.

"Yes." Bismarck nodded.

I just separated from Tizi, but I didn’t expect to meet him again. This is a really interesting encounter.

The two buses drove onto the highway to Wilhelmshaven one after the other and began a journey that would last seven or eight hours.

Bismarck leaned his head back in his chair and looked out the window. Speaking of highways, he had to thank the little mustache. In order to solve the serious social problem of unemployment relief caused by the "Great Panic" in 1929, Germany, under the leadership of the little mustache, began to plan the construction of radial roads and ring roads connecting Berlin to various borders from 1933. It is said that the initial goal was 7500 kilometers - of course, the project has been suspended because of the war.

Although many people were opposed to investing huge financial resources to build such a luxurious highway in the beginning, the well-built sections have already demonstrated its importance - at least for Bismarck and others, if there were no highways, it would take at least two days without taking a plane.

The highway has also boosted the economy along the way. Along the way, some towns are obviously more prosperous than other places.

However, thinking that these prosperous places would no longer exist soon, Bismarck found that he no longer had the mood to appreciate them.

She turned around, not looking at the guy next to her who was trying to chat with her, and closed her eyes pretending to be tired.

The convoy arrived in William at dusk, but it was still a few kilometers away from William Port. After greeting the local garrison, they found a hotel to stay in.

There were limited rooms, so it was impossible to have one room for each person. Bismarck and two models from the logistics department were assigned to one room.

The relationships between girls are naturally complicated. Bismarck didn't know if he had done anything to offend them. He always felt that the two roommates seemed to be very unhappy with him. The two of them huddled together and ignored him.

Although Bismarck was a little depressed, she was not used to getting along with strangers, so this was also good as it gave her some free time.

Ignoring the chattering models and the slightly nervous female soldiers, Bismarck quickly lay down on the bed in the hotel.

He closed his eyes and let his mental strength emanate silently - now that he had arrived at the port, of course he had to say hello to his sister.

The Tirpitz had just ended the Battle of Dunkirk and had just returned to the port. It was now parked not far from the Bismarck. The sailors on the battleship were busy cleaning the hull and repairing damaged weapons and equipment.

Bismarck scanned the hull briefly. Lindemann was walking towards Tirpitz's room. What was Tirpitz doing?

Mental power quickly invaded...

Grape in the room felt a familiar scent surrounding her, like the scent of her sister.

"Didn't my sister go back to Berlin? It must be an illusion..." Tizi pulled his own alopecia, smoothed his hair, and refocused his attention on the picture in front of him.

"By the way, let's add a stroke here, it will look much better." Ti Zi smiled and drew a line, and immediately the sister in the picture looked a lot fuller.

"It's a pity that she's wearing too little." In the picture, Bismarck is leaning against the wall shyly, with her knees bent and her long hair hanging down, looking charming and attractive.

Tizi bit the pencil and looked up at the sky. "But sister's underwear is really beautiful. It should be drawn like this... Never mind, let's just leave it like this for now. Sister is beautiful like this."

Before she had finished her stroke, she felt Lindemann approaching.

"He can't see it." Ti Zi's mind turned, and a hole immediately opened in the wall, and she hid the easel inside.

Lindemann arrived right after.

"Lindemann, what's the matter?" Ti Zi pretended to be innocent.

"Have you done something bad behind my back?" Lindman looked into the room with a suspicious look on his face, where some scattered paintbrushes were.

"no!"

"Why are you so excited?" Lindemann said with a smile, "Just to tell you, your sister has already arrived in Port William and will come over tomorrow."

"Ah, why is my sister in Port William?" Ti Zi was shocked.

But in Lindeman's opinion, this was just a sign of Tizi being overjoyed. "She came here to take promotional photos. I told you sisters that you will meet soon. Isn't she here now?"

"It's over, it's over, it's over!" Ti Zi was about to cry. He threw himself on his little bed without any image and wrapped his head with a pillow.

"What's over? Are you unhappy?"

"No, I'm just too happy." Ti Zi said with a bitter face.

It’s over...it must be my sister. She saw it...
