From here, you can only see an outline of the other party for the time being, but just looking at that outline, you know it's an aircraft carrier!
Yes, definitely an aircraft carrier!
With the constant fine-tuning of the high-power telescope, he soon saw that the flat flight deck, the huge chimney on the starboard side and the superstructure were integrated, and the whole warship had obvious characteristics of the British aircraft carrier.
But now, the British have no aircraft carrier in the Atlantic. Moreover, the British Navy flag flying in the wind on the warship is not the British Navy flag, not in terms of color!
"Attention, 15 nautical miles ahead, 30 degrees starboard, found an aircraft carrier, suspected to be a French aircraft carrier!" Carl shouted down through the phone.
The French also have aircraft carriers, but this aircraft carrier is basically unknown in this era.
This is the Bayan, the aircraft carrier, originally the Normandy class warship No. 5, which began construction on January 10, 1914.
Unfortunately, due to the outbreak of the first World War, a large number of workers were recruited into the army and priority was given to the manufacture of other armaments. The construction progress of the Normandy class was slow and even completely stopped later.
At the end of World War I, none of these warships with four main guns had been built.
After the war, the French believed that the design of the Normandy class was outdated. Coupled with the Washington Naval Treaty signed by France and Western powers in February 1922, the French military decided to scrap and demolish the unfinished Normandy class warships.
At this time, the French Navy realized that Britain, America, Japan and other countries had begun to build or transform aircraft carriers through the deck. France also urgently needs to carry out relevant research on shipborne aviation. To this end, the French Navy decided to transform the No. 5 ship "Bayan" with the lowest degree of completion into an experimental aircraft carrier.
The French naval technical regiment once boarded the British aircraft carrier "hundred eyed giant" for investigation. In the reconstruction process of the "Bayan", it learned a lot from the successful experience of the British aircraft carrier. In this way, the newly built warship also has a lot of the appearance characteristics of the British aircraft carrier.
The aircraft carrier has a full load displacement of 28000 tons and can carry up to 40 carrier based aircraft. In addition to the carrier based aircraft, the ship itself also has strong self-defense firepower and is equipped with eight 155 mm single barrel naval guns.
Unfortunately, due to the problem of the engine, the maximum speed of this aircraft carrier has just exceeded 20 knots, which is quite inconvenient to operate the carrier aircraft. Therefore, until the end of the war, this aircraft carrier was almost unknown.
However, for France, this aircraft carrier is very important because it successfully transported French gold!
Yes, this is the task assigned by the French navy to its aircraft carrier! Although this aircraft carrier has some chicken ribs, it is an aircraft carrier after all!
After joining the United States and using the aircraft carrier to transport gold, he began to use the aircraft carrier as an aircraft carrier. It's not cool, but this is the mission of the Bayan.
Now, this aircraft carrier is performing this task.
The cruisers Joan of arc and Belden were responsible for transporting Brest's gold, while the Bayan was responsible for transporting gold from the port of Toulon.
After all, Germany could not take into account all of them, so it let the Bayan ship load gold from the port of Toulon. Moreover, it was relatively smooth in the port of Toulon and started here all the way!
The aircraft carrier Bayan is ready to continue northward and meet with two other cruisers. When the three ships meet, they cross the Atlantic Ocean and finally arrive at Halifax port, Canada.
The gold in Toulon port was transported only this time, and the rest was directly transported to the African colony belonging to France. After all, it is closer there.
Now, the Bayan is still sailing on its own route, and it has no vigilance.
Now, the French leadership is a mess. Brest was attacked, which frightened the French. Those who did not know the inside felt that the Germans were opening up a second battlefield and coming from another direction. Those who knew the inside felt terrible. The Germans had a clear insight into their own gold transportation plan.
If the gold is intercepted by the Germans, France really has no future!
Under such circumstances, everyone was in a mess. Unexpectedly, no one thought to inform about the meeting of two sunken warships in the Atlantic as planned!
In this way, the Bayan is sailing normally on the route. The surrounding fishing boats are a good cover for it. If it is mixed with the fishing boats, it can better hide its tracks.
So far, Spain has not joined the war, which makes many people take chances.
On the bridge, general labard frowned. He is the person in charge of the maritime operation. He will lead three warships to Canada.
The situation has deteriorated so fast that the French Republic can't hold on for half a month?
He is concerned about the French Republic and the whole situation of World War II. He is not worried about his warship.
Although the Germans have controlled the east coast of the Atlantic Ocean, the sea is so vast that their formation of three warships has no problems along the way as long as they are not on the route.
At the beginning of World War II, when German submarines were the most ferocious, many captains found nothing after going to sea and often couldn't find a target for half a month.
Now, among the fishing boats, they are safer.
This sense of security has made them pay a heavy price.
On the bridge, the intern in charge of lookout is Paul. He has just joined the Navy for less than a month. The nearly 30000 ton warship is still relatively stable. However, looking at the distance, it will always be faint in front of him for a long time.
Anyway, there was no one to supervise, so he did it carelessly. Take a look and have a rest. On the sea, it was only a fishing boat at most. There was nothing to look at.
His carelessness has destroyed the whole warship!
At this time, Germany's German class warship, Lord speber, had found it!
When the lookout reported, the captain, Colonel lansdorf, immediately aimed his telescope at the sea area. Soon, he was ecstatic.
"Report to the fleet immediately. We have found the aircraft carrier of the French navy. In order to protect the safety of our fleet, we will launch an attack immediately!" Said Captain lansdorf.
Attack now! He can't wait. It's really boring to be the nanny of these landing ships. Now, he has a big target, which is on his own route. Of course, he will attack!
"All ships, combat alert!" Colonel lansdorf continued to give orders: "all main guns, load armor piercing bullets immediately! Two cars, three ahead, ready to seize the shooting position! "
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
