Light scattered in the dark passage of Scarpa Bay Naval Court

The door of the conference room is closed, and the jury and the judge are having a heated discussion. On the other side, there is a detention room guarded by gendarmes. Betty is sitting on the sofa with a sad expression, but she is absolutely happy.
"It’s time to think about the future." Betty hurriedly threw away her cigarette end and blew a few words at her scalded finger for a long time. After that, a few words popped out of her mouth. "Immigration to the United States to become a professional manager at Eiffel Shujia Department Store? Or return to Ireland to inherit his father’s career and become a wandering captain? "
The corridor came whispering for a second, and a little light shone near the dark room. The old man came in trembling with a pipe in his mouth and a suit and tie.
"Mr. Belfo …"
Betty was embarrassed, and there was a little trepidation in her tone. It was because of Winston Churchill’s cautious but self-respecting respect. Betty knew that King Arthur was not as talented as Marshal Hill, and that King Arthur had an advantage over a previous naval leader. This fact was precisely the lack of the Royal Navy. "
"General Betty, I have been a member of parliament, chairman of the local zhèng fǔ incarnation committee, Irish minister, Irish chief secretary, finance minister and foreign minister, and I have been a prime minister and leader of the Conservative House, but my 40-year-long resume is that there is no place where the navy has made diplomatic relations."
Admiralty has always been aggressive. King Arthur casually sat beside Betty with a pipe in his hand and waved his greeting. Betty sat on the sofa. Belfo was like an old man who always liked to remember the past. Betty talked about his first memories of the navy.
"I don’t know anything about the navy. My limited impression of the navy is that the Royal Navy is invincible, and there is a young man named David Betty in the navy who is promoted to major general at the fastest time. He may develop into a comparable figure to Nelson during his vacation!"
"Cough that young man hull golan bay naval battle; J and jīng heart planning Dogel sandbar ambush not only failed to eat the west lime fleet but let the Germans sink three capital ships; Ri Dylan’s naval performance was even worse. Losing five capital ships, not to mention dragging the weak fleet, led to the collapse of the British Empire. "
David Betty joked and laughed, and Zhang made up the story for the Secretary of the Navy.
Fortunately, however, that young man’s military career is over. He will fight hard on Wall Street, and he will go to the sea and master and commander. No one needs to worry about what kind of disaster this guy with high hopes will bring to Britain.
When Betty complained, the energetic old guy J: ng didn’t interrupt. He was snickering with a cigarette butt until Betty was thirsty.
"General Betty, listen, the horse is about to be finally sentenced. Let me ask you a question while I have no ideological burden. This question is very important. Please answer me honestly. The old man has only one question."
Betty didn’t nod, but Betty regretted Dambert’s question.
"Captain Clemente Ley of collingwood in Portsmouth naval battle was frightened by the aggressive First Reconnaissance Fleet, and the old slick Jackson was vague about collingwood’s next move." Belfo paused to pick up his pipe and took a mouthful of Gherardini. "I’m curious that you are being imprisoned by the Navy Procuratorate and investigated. It’s not suitable for you to haunt Scarpa Bay base headquarters, and what motivates you to make a decision to reach the controversial command of collingwood, which is not under your command?" …,
"What is it? What is it! " Betty’s line of sight, Belfo’s wrinkled face, and a trembling hand tried to touch the cigarette case to remember the matchbox. "Is there anything else to ask about this question?"
"It’s time for Mr. Sentencing …"
When the court adjourned for ten minutes, it was just a snap of your fingers. The gendarmes pushed the door and came in, looking at the two people who were deadlocked hesitantly.
"Young man, I understand." Belfo finally picked up his face and smiled and stood up with a cane. "Congratulations!"
(Gorgeous dividing line)
"Is this a dream or a reality?" Lampard touched the hard stubble in front of the mirror and wondered
Looking back seven hours ago, Lampard could still break out in a cold sweat when he was confronted by the naval military court in Scarpa Bay.
"Deputy Commander Lampard, you have the responsibility and righteousness to know the service status of the main ships of the fast fleet. Before the naval battle in Scarborough Gerakl Strait, did you know the operation status of three machines that were transferred to the tireless patrol class after attending the Wan Li in the Falkland Islands?"
"General Lampard, I understand that it is from you that you suggested that naval experts recognize that the naval battle in Ritland suffered a major defeat. Although this was Betty’s final decision, you should be responsible for it!"
"I have checked the fleet Rizhi and found that there were minor problems in the mainframes of the battleships Tired of War and Queen Elizabeth on the eve of the battle, which directly led to the unsatisfactory performance of the two fast battleships in the whole naval battle. General Lampard was in your hands when the fast fleet was in command. I think you were responsible for the sinking of the second world war patrol fleet and the Tired of War."
For more than an hour, Lampard was almost cornered by the prosecutor of the naval procuratorate. Lampard has a good writing style, but this does not mean that he is excellent in eloquence. However, even if he is excellent in eloquence, I am afraid he does not want the prosecutor to argue that because he shirked his responsibility, it will be blamed on Betty.
After the recess, the judge went back to the courtroom, and the clerk took the lead and shouted "Stand up!" "
Everyone got up and listened to the judge’s sentence with trepidation.
The old judge wore reading glasses, opened the thick splint, pulled out the verdict paper signed by the jury members, and smashed the hammer symbolizing credibility.
The sound of the falling hammer was not loud, but it frightened the fragile hearts of the trembling people. Lampard clasped the defendant’s stand with his hands tightly closed, and silently recited a meaningful prayer in the Bible’s gospel of Matthew in the New Testament.
"Ask the emperor to forgive us for our transgressions, and we will forgive others for offending us."
"According to the first paragraph of Article 120 of the Naval Law, the third paragraph of Article 69 and the common law constitution J Ο ng of Article 64 of the Regulations on Punishment of Violation of Military Discipline in Lu Haijun, I declare that Jason Lampard was responsible for the Battle of the 2Ο 4Ο Skaparak Strait in March 1915, but he did not commit the crime of dereliction of duty because of his minor crimes."
"What?" Everyone in the military court opened their mouths and a word flashed in their minds, "Crazy! This is all crazy!"
(Gorgeous dividing line)
After the trial of Major General Lampard, Jellicoe will start the trial, and the trial of former fast fleet commander David Betty finally reached the high court.
Osmond Brock, deputy commander of Scarpa Bay base who was kicked out of court, was celebrated by the officers and men of the big fleet, and many orkney residents were comforting Betty’s wife Ethel Shu. Even though it was David Betty who suggested that the big fleet should withdraw from Scarpa Bay and abandon the residents of orkney Island, the "two-faced, three-faced bastard from barnsley, South Yorkshire" preferred to talk quickly to David Betty,
"Silence" and "Stand up" can’t hide from you who shouted "Sentence has begun". The noisy square suddenly became quiet. The drunken sailors and Orkney Islands residents held their breath and looked at the door closed. The military court base headquarters was nervous. More than one platoon of gendarmes dispatched guns in front of the military court. Another hundred gendarmes armed with sticks were ready to quell the sā chaos at any time.
In the military court, Belfo, the secretary of the navy, strolled leisurely out of the background of the naval court. Except for Jackson’s cronies, his naval officers deliberately kept their distance from the commander-in-chief of the big fleet, so there was a strange scene in the crowded court. Jackson and three or two navies were sitting alone and were very dazzling.
"Although the outcome is doomed, I still hope that the naval military court can retain the last face of General Betty, even if it is a decent resignation …"
King Albert, a naval officer, is deeply loved by the people. His brother whispers that his ancestors asked the royal family not to interfere too much. Political proverbs show the worship of David Betty unabashedly.
"Bertie shut up!" In 1915, King Edward didn’t have the Duke of Windsor who didn’t love rivers and mountains and loved beauty. He let sailors sit in on the trial from Belfo, the Minister of the Navy, and secretly met David Betty. He had a keen political sense and realized that there might be an accident that shocked the whole of Britain. He glared at his brother and put his index finger on his lips.
"David Betty, the former commander of the fast fleet, temporarily revised the campaign plan during the battle of the Gerakl Strait in March 1915, which led to the expansion of the campaign scale and campaign risk limit; After leaving the North Sea before 3Ri, David Betty chose to divide his troops before the naval battle, which caused the two patrol fleets to be unable to support each other. On the night of 3Ri, 4Ri, the German First Reconnaissance Fleet broke down one by one and lost two main battleships, which led to the damage of the battleship Tired of War. David Betty misjudged the speed of the first German reconnaissance fleet in the naval battle in the morning of March 4, which led to the fast fleet being entangled in the first reconnaissance fleet and losing two capital ships again.
On April 29, 1915, David Betty misjudged the attack direction of the German ocean fleet, which had a negative impact on the judgment of the Admiralty’s big fleet. On April 29, David Betty banned the naval procuratorate from appearing at Scarpa Bay base headquarters and asked the collingwood to withdraw from Portsmouth port under the guise of the big fleet, which led to the collapse of the Mediterranean aid fleet.
After the collegiate bench deliberated and admitted the case, the facts were clear after court investigation and court debate, but some evidence was not sufficient.
Before revising the battle plan of Scarborough Gerakl Strait, Secretary of the Navy Churchill demanded and was forced by the bad situation to divide the troops before the naval battle. The reason was that the speed of warships could not be broken one by one. It was due to Major General Moore’s command error, the damage of the patrol antenna of the Lion and the misjudgment of the speed of the German first reconnaissance fleet after the decisive battle in bad weather. It was attributed to the obstruction of the eleventh destroyer fleet.
On April 29, 1915, David Betty misjudged the attack direction of the ocean fleet and rumored that the case of the retreat of the big fleet was not investigated. On April 29, David Betty regarded the ban of the naval procuratorate as true, but according to the testimony of the captain of the collingwood, the return of the collingwood originated from the Navy newspaper rather than David Betty’s suggestion.
According to the first paragraph of Article 120 of Article 32 of the Naval Law, the fourth, fifth and seventh paragraphs of Article 266, and the sixty-ninth and seventieth articles of the Regulations on Punishment of Violation of Military Discipline in Lu Haijun, the common law constitution, General David Betty, is responsible for violating the prohibition of the naval procuratorate, but it does not constitute dereliction of duty and crime. "
Jackson had no patience to hear the judge’s verdict. He looked at Belfo, the secretary of the navy, and rushed out of the door.
"So I declare that General David Betty’s crime is released in court and executed immediately!" to be continued
