I'm afraid this time, watch "Greyhound"

The naval battle movie is very exciting. It is a scene of real naval battles. Although you know it is a war, you can also appreciate the aesthetics of violence because you are completely out of the way.

"Greyhound" appeared at this time of fierce confrontation between China and the United States, making people appreciate the beauty of war, but not so out of the way, and even began to feel a sense of substitution, thinking about how our lives would change if there was a war idea. This stems from the film's depiction of war.

"Greyhound" tells the story of an escort in the Battle of the Atlantic, one of many escorts, encountering a wolves attack by a U-boat, and how the two sides fought.

First of all, the film made me feel cold. There was ice on the boat, and there were waves. The cabin windows needed wipers, but they were frozen. Those soldiers must be wet, on the ice and slippery boat... …is the cold where the ice and snow have nowhere to hide. But the soldiers could not escape.

The sea seems to be sticky, dizzying tossing the fleet and warships, but not letting them escape. The dark sea, the white foam-like waves, the trajectory of various artillery fire, this is my memory of the battle in the film scene.

Then came the shock. Several cargo ships were sunk overnight, and more than 200 people died. This was a one-day event. And people accepted it so calmly, as if they accepted fate. This may be the destruction of people by war. War is fate. It redraws everyone's fate, and you have to accept it.

The U-boat must surface after being injured, which is a rational choice, but it is not rational to still use naval guns and machine guns to fight surface ships on the surface, it is a warrior's choice. Anyone who has played the Korean War game knows that the result of the confrontation between the submarine and the destroyer on the surface is to be crushed. This is their fate, and the war-torn fate.

How many resources and manpower are needed to deliver supplies to Britain and maintain British resistance. The food and materials that originally belonged to every family were transported to the ocean and sank to the bottom of the sea. They were constantly produced, transported, and kept silent, but all people could not stop. It is the rear of the war.

That's what the Navy is like, and it still doesn't seem to have changed, but I hope warships are just an aesthetic display tool that embodies industry and state machinery, rather than being victims and perpetrators of explosions. All navies are the same.

No matter what country's navy, no matter how mighty the warship, when it explodes and the sea water pours in, the warship becomes a box of death - like a drowning person whose lungs are stimulated to swallow uncontrollably until their lungs are full. Water - this is the warship devastated by the explosion, with soldiers inside.

The Greyhound was fortunate, and many others were unfortunate. Hope the Pacific, not the Atlantic, is warm and calm.
