robbed a British submarine, Li Guang didn't dare to be careless. Now that Germany and Britain are fighting in Norway, the North Sea is not very peaceful. Here, both Britain and Germany were likely to attack merchant ships.

On the night of the robbery, Li Guang's PC immediately changed the name of the Soviet Union, and the purpose of the trip was to declare to the outside world that it was St. Petersburg (called Leningrad) in the northern part of the Soviet Union on the Baltic Sea.

In fact, the final destination of the trip was Gdansk, the northern port of Poland. This is the largest port in Poland. The location of this transaction has added a lot of difficulty to Li Guang.

Originally, if it was a port on the coast of Germany, the PC number would have been able to dock during the day. But this trading location, the PC has to venture for three or four days, and it is currently the most dangerous sea in the world.

Denmark, Noham, and Sweden were strategically important to both Britain, France, and Germany. Denmark is located between the Baltic Sea and the North Sea, and is a choke point on the sea; Norway was located in the northwestern part of Scandinavia, and the German occupation of these two countries would limit the movement of the British fleet in the Atlantic and Baltic Seas, and German ships would have unhindered access to the North Sea and Atlantic, ensuring the safe arrival of Swedish iron ore to Germany.

And supplies from the Baltic coast can also be transported from here. Although land transportation in Germany is very developed, after all, the cost of land transportation is still much higher than that of sea transportation. The control of Norway and Denmark would be of great benefit to Germany's shipping.

The Germans occupied Denmark on April 9 after four hours of fighting.

During daylight on the 18th, the PC had approached the Deland Peninsula (Danish territory). On the surface, it is very safe, you must know that Denmark has surrendered to Germany, and Li Guang has the documents of the German Minister Mokdol, and he will not be obstructed.

But this is all superficial, and it is difficult to predict when British fighters will drop a bomb. It is not uncommon to be hit by German warplanes or submarines.

In fact, the entire North Sea is within the bombing range of the shore-based fighters of the two countries, and for the PC, it must be extremely passive when encountering surface ships, and it is also in a state of being beaten when encountering fighters, and only submarines can cope with it.

During the whole day of sailing in the North Sea, Li Guang was cautious, and thanks to the bad weather conditions, there were no fighters and no warships. Until the evening, the PC entered the Skagerrak Strait.

It is not so much a strait as a rectangular bay on the eastern side of the North Sea. It is located between southern Norway and the Danish peninsula called the Tereland. It leads to the North Sea to the west and to the Baltic Sea to the east through the Kattegat Strait, Denmark and Sweden.

Thanks to some information found on British submarines, Li Guang has some understanding of this strait. The strait is shallow in the south and deep in the north, with an average water depth of 200 meters and the deepest depth in the east reaching 809 meters, which is very convenient for navigation, and is one of the busiest sea lanes in the world, and is also the throat of the Baltic Sea coastal countries in and out of the North Atlantic, and its strategic position is very important.

Entering here, the PC number began to send telegrams to contact the Germans. At eight o'clock in the evening, German patrol boats came up to meet them. The Baltic Sea to the west was under the control of the Germans, and with the documents given by Minister Mokdor, the German soldiers were quite friendly. In those years, there were not many merchant ships that sent supplies to the Germans, and Li Guang and his entourage were warmly welcomed.

Four submarines remained in the Skagerrak Strait and did not penetrate deep into the Baltic Sea. Li Guang feared being discovered by the Germans in the Baltic.

That night, the PC docked in Copenhagen, Denmark, and Colonel Claude, the only person Li Guang knew in Germany, was arranged by the German side to accompany him throughout the whole process, and he made a special trip to wait here.

Claude was no longer the decrepit German Navy Captain in Uruguay, with shiny leather shoes and a neatly trimmed mustache (Hitler's). ）。

It was evident that this was the time when he was in high spirits, and at the dinner, Claude said to himself that he had just been received by the Great Führer. Li Guang casually complimented: "It is estimated that the next time we meet Colonel Claude, I am afraid that it will be General Claude." ”

The Germans really didn't know what politeness was, and Claude licked his face and said proudly: "Under the teaching of the great Führer, this will not be too far away." ”

Li Guang has never known Claude's social background, but this guy can achieve the position of colonel at a young age, in addition to writing articles and speculating on the right way, there should definitely be some other help. Claude, an officer who once served on the Count Speer (self-sinking), can be regarded as having a slight stain on his body. can be promoted so quickly, the background can be imagined.

Although the current Claude is not high, it is also a weight. He was now directly responsible for the logistical supply of the entire German submarine force, and he also had a considerable say in the procurement of submarines. Half-drunk, Claude finally revealed a little. Claude's father was the owner of the Horvaz shipyard.

Li Guang heard this and gasped. The Holvaz shipyard is a giant company, and nearly half of Germany's submarines are produced by this factory. And this plant is also capable of producing a wide range of warships, including battleships.

Although Li Guang also has a large shipyard in Uruguay, there are not many comparable surnames with this kind of factory, no matter how large the scale is. The Oolong shipyard was even building destroyers and aircraft carriers, but Li Guang himself knew that the warships he built were not at all the same as the British and German warships, and Li Guang's advantage was only that he had an advanced historical vision. When it comes to whether the ship design is reasonable and advanced, it is not enough to even lift shoes for these world-famous factories.

In my memory, the only German aircraft carrier under construction, the "Graf Zeppelin", was built by this enterprise. Due to the dispute between the German Navy and the Air Force over the ownership of the aircraft, the construction of the aircraft was constantly delayed, and the outbreak of World War II led to the end of the construction of the aircraft carrier in May 1940, and the construction of the aircraft carrier was about 85% complete, mainly due to Hitler's decision to devote most of the Navy's funds to the development of the U-series submarines, so the first aircraft carrier was not completed.

The so-called struggle for the ownership of the aircraft was not due to the war itself, but to Hitler's hardcore --- the desire for power of the Luftwaffe commander Hermann Wilhelm Goering, who declared: "All that can fly in Germany is under his control." ”

Navy Commander Raeder and Hitler themselves were not very close, and even a little bit of a reading surname, so it was naturally difficult to gain the support of the Führer, and as a result, it was difficult for the Navy to have fighters, and without fighter aircraft carriers, it was naturally of little use. Therefore, the suspension of the aircraft carrier is a natural thing.

Due to Li Guang's influence, the Germans were more enthusiastic about developing submarines, and it seemed that there was no hope for the aircraft carrier to be completed.

After learning about Claude's background, Li Guang's eyes lit up. This is the real rich second generation, and there is definitely something to do in the relationship business.
