The first to take off is the swordfish bomber. At this time, they are not carrying torpedoes, but mines. Their task is to lay mines in the port to prevent French warships from rushing out of the port.

It's very simple. It's easy to fight when you close the door. As long as French warships can't get out of the port, it's a matter of minutes to destroy them.

Just as the swordfish bomber took off from the deck of the aircraft carrier, the school firing aircraft were also ejecting and taking off quickly on all battleships.

In later generations, general warships were loaded with helicopters, but now, large warships are loaded with seaplanes. They take off on warships with catapults. When they land, they land directly on the sea, and then wait for their warships to be recovered with cranes.

In the middle of the ship's side of the warrior, a super Marin walrus water reconnaissance aircraft was quickly ejected into the air. It is a two winged reconnaissance aircraft, which can also carry out artillery calibration.

The open cockpit cover has always been British. At this time, in the back of the cabin, observer George, who is responsible for artillery calibration and firing, feels the great impact and rises with the carrier based aircraft.

Every take-off is like being kicked hard on the smooth ground. This feeling is really uncomfortable!

In a few seconds of vertigo, George adapted to flying. The pilot in the front cabin has piloted the plane and raised his own height. On the side of anti Poti, the French battleships are neatly arranged and haven't started to move. It's the best opportunity!

Holding the optical instrument, George was measuring quickly. At the same time, he kept reporting: "distance, 15340 meters, azimuth, 60 degrees, 30 minutes, 2 seconds, the first test launch, start!"

"Boom!" Here's the warrior. A main gun fired quickly. According to the data provided by the calibration aircraft, it began the test firing.

With a beautiful track, the shell flew over and hit the breakwater!

If it's on a warship, you don't know how far away the shooting is from the target. It's all blocked by the anti Poti. However, on the high school shooting plane, everything can be seen clearly!

"Close shot, raise one point up, all guns, shoot together!" George shouted excitedly that his own shell was only tens of meters away from the French flagship Dunkirk. As long as the elevation was raised a little, it could hit! At the same time, all our own shells hit each other's warships, which can kill the French flagship with one shot!

It's exciting enough to think about it.

"Raise the anchor," this way, let general sur also give orders.

Stay here and only be beaten. They must move, even if the steam pressure is temporarily insufficient!

By what? Tugboat, of course!

Compared with the steam engines of battleships, tugboats almost always use diesel engines. They can move as soon as they start. At this time, they can only rely on tugboats to make them move first, even if they turn around first, so that they can enter the combat state!

"Boom, boom!" 381mm shell, flying again!

This time, the accuracy of the British warship is really high enough!

They almost flew over the head of the French warship and splashed into the sea nearby. A tugboat was almost overturned by the splashing water!

"Play far!" In the sky, George looked at everything on the sea with great depression. This time, he shot far! Just at the school shooting, he forgot to consider the speed of his warship!

Damn it!

But this time, it won't be wrong again!

Just when he was going to continue the calibration shooting, he only felt his plane turning rapidly. In an instant, he couldn't see the sea.

At the same time, shells flew by his fighters and exploded black smoke in the sky not far away.

Antiaircraft guns!

Of course, the French Navy noticed the school firing plane, which is the first target they have to deal with, although it is a little far away!

On the French warships here, various types of anti-aircraft guns, whether they can reach or not, are shooting into the sky. Even if they can't shoot down each other, they just hurt it or even interfere with its flight, it's also useful!

At the same time, the school firing aircraft on the French warship also took off. They want to command their warships and attack the British Navy here!

As long as the battle begins, it will never die!

At the same time, the news of the exchange of fire quickly spread back to France.

The space in the conference room was not large. There was a smell of smoke everywhere. Darlan closed his eyes and didn't want to talk, while Pierre's words were constantly coming into his mind.

"Now, our warships rush to fight and may suffer heavy losses. Only by turning to Germany can we help our navy." Said Pierre.

Turn to Germany? What is the pride of the French navy? Darlan is very contradictory.

The navy is different from the army.

Germany can ask France to have no army, but it has not killed all the French navy, because the French navy is not under German control.

And the navy is proud.

At the end of World War I, Britain and France drove all the German warships to Scarpa Bay and wanted to take these warships as their own.

What happened? The Germans made a hole in them. At the end, they sank all these warships. The British got nothing and were happy.

Therefore, Germany did not ask the French Navy what to do. After all, it could not be controlled. In case of urgency, the French sank all their warships, which was not good for Germany.

In history, it really happened that the warships of the French fleet sank to the port of Toulon, leaving Hitler in the air.

And now, the British first could not hold their breath and opened fire on the French fleet. In this way, it is equivalent to giving Germany a chance!

Darlan doesn't want to have anything to do with Germany, but now he has to bear the result of the possible collapse of the French fleet. His brain is in a mess and he doesn't know what to do.

"Report, governor fakenhausen is here." Just then, an adjutant came in and reported.

At this time, France had completed the surrender ceremony and was divided into two parts. In the north of France, German Falkenhausen exercised the duties of governor of military and political integration.

Now, governor fakenhausen came here, which surprised everyone.

"Invite him in." Beidang said quickly.

Although bedang is also the ruler of France, now that France has become two halves, he often needs fakenhausen's support. Now, when the other party takes the initiative to visit, he will definitely greet him with a smile.
