Transmigrated as the Crown Prince

What the Soviets didn't know was that in addition to the surface ships, the German fleet also had a terrifying ghost underwater that was wandering in the Black Sea. It even entered the Black Sea one step ahead of the surface ships.

This ghost is the Tiger Shark No. 2 submarine that was officially put into service not long ago.

The hull of Tiger Shark No. 2 is slightly longer than Tiger Shark No. 1, and a Stirling engine (SE) AIP cabin is added in the middle. This submarine has become a veritable AIP submarine. Although the power is not very large, it is enough to provide lighting and various electronic devices on the boat for normal operation. The remaining energy can maintain continuous sailing for half a month at an underwater speed of five knots.

At this moment, in the submarine control tower, the captain Joe Wolfgang Rutte was holding the telegram just sent from the command headquarters.

Wolfgang Rutte, one of Germany's ace submarine captains in World War II, was a controversial military officer.

Rutte is known by later generations as the person with the most complex personality among U-boat captains. On the one hand, he is extremely brave, has innate leadership skills, is good at stimulating the passion and sense of honor of his subordinates, and is also willing to use all means to boost the ship. On the other hand, he can do whatever it takes to win. Sometimes, in order to complete the mission, he can put his crew members in danger without hesitation.

At the same time, he cares deeply for his subordinates. He values ​​marriage and family and always takes care of the crew members like a strict but kind father. As long as any crew member sets foot on a U-boat commanded by Rutte, no matter where he is from then on, Wherever he is, what kind of work he does, or what kind of mistakes he makes, he will become the object of Rutte's protection and help. When later generations evaluate Rutte, they feel that they cannot simply call him a good guy or a bad guy, a hero or a villain, a loyal soldier for the country or a die-hard Nazi, or just a bloodthirsty modern pirate. U.S. military historian Jordan Vause wrote in 1990: "... Today, almost fifty years after the last U-boat sank the last ship, people generally tend to think that U-boats The soldiers had a dirty job to do, and they did it really well." Rutte certainly did this "dirty job" so well that he was called the "dirty job" by both friends and enemies during the war. A "great hunter".

It's a pity that such a talented general died in a shocking way.

Late one night on May 12, 1945, Germany had surrendered to the Allies. In the middle of the night, as usual, Rutte wanted to pass through the military checkpoint he had set earlier, but surprisingly However, at this time, Lutte was shot dead on the spot by a sentry because he did not answer the military command.

A heroic figure who once dominated the war did not fall in the hail of bullets on the battlefield, but fell under the gun of his own sentry after the war. Such an ending also made future generations sigh.

In fact, many people have expressed some conjectures about what happened that night. For example, some people believed that Rutte was in a drunken state at the time, and he naturally could not remember the password because he was unconscious. Others believe that Rutte actually did this on purpose. Because he could not accept and tolerate Germany's failure, he had the idea of ​​committing suicide at the hands of the sentries. But no matter what the reason, Wolfgang Rutte has become a legend.

Rutte handed the message in his hand to the adjutant on the side. "The Soviet fleet is preparing to leave port."

"Oh? Even those broken battleships of the Black Sea Fleet dare to challenge our fleet?"

"The Soviets wanted to use aviation to attack our fleet and assembled nearly 1,000 fighter planes."

"A thousand? That sounds like a lot." The first mate curled his lips disdainfully. "No matter how large the quantity is without quality, it is useless. If there are 500 FW190Ts and 500 A-1 attack aircraft, we may be able to succeed."

"Yes, these furry bears are overestimating their capabilities." After mocking, Lutte ordered. "Let's give them a big surprise, turn ten degrees to the left and move forward at full speed!"

Berlin on the other side.

Ribbentrop's impassioned speech came over the radio.

"As we all know, last year we signed a non-aggression treaty with the Soviet Union that is valid for 10 years. The general content of the treaty is that 'no party shall take hostile actions against the other party; if one of the parties becomes the object of hostilities by a third country, the other party will not be able to that third country in support; neither side will in any way join any group of countries that directly or indirectly targets the other side.'

We have always abided by the treaty and did not infringe on the interests of the Soviet Union in the slightest.

But just when our fight with Britain was in full swing, Churchill, who was eager to jump over the wall, asked the Soviets to attack us from behind on the condition of ceding India.

These perfidious Soviets agreed without hesitation, and in order to eliminate their worries, they launched an attack on Finland.

Fortunately, the heroic Finnish people severely beat the invading enemy and failed to let the Soviet conspiracy succeed.

And just a few days ago, the Soviet Union and the United States got together again. Here I have to lament Stalin's broad-mindedness. Not long ago, he claimed that the US Secretary of State intended to assassinate him, shot all the visiting Secretary of State and his party, and gave the United States several urns. Now they are so quick to get together regardless of the previous suspicion. ? "

After making some sarcastic remarks about the United States and the Soviet Union, Ribbentrop continued. "Since the Soviet Union wants to collude with the United States, it is equivalent to declaring war on us. We have decided not to tolerate such shameless and repeated betrayal by the Soviets."

"Today, our paratroopers have parachuted into the Georgia area and liberated the Georgian people from the rule of the evil Stalin. It is not difficult to see that the seemingly powerful Soviet Union is just a paper tiger with external power and internal interference. It is like a building. A shabby house, we only need to kick in the door and the whole shabby house will fall down.”

Berlin Palace.

Unable to withstand Yannick's repeated invitations, Little Hepburn finally came to the palace.

Little Hepburn, who was sitting on the sofa in Yannick's office and eating ice cream, also heard this broadcast and suddenly asked. "Brother Yannick, why are there wars in the world?"

"..." Although this question seems very philosophical, it is not difficult to answer. If she has read Clausewitz's "On War", she will know why there are wars.

But she probably wouldn’t have the opportunity to come into contact with such books, Yannick thought for a while and asked. "Have you seen 'Tom and Jerry'?" Seeing little Hepburn nodding, he continued. "There is a story about a cat, a dog, and a mouse fighting every day. Then one day the dog asked the cat and the mouse why we keep fighting like this? Why can't we shake hands and make peace? So they signed a peace treaty, and what happened next? "

Little Hepburn replied seriously. "I got a piece of meat, but because the meat was unevenly distributed, they started fighting again."

Yannick smiled. "That's it. We were fighting over this piece of meat."
