-- Plymouth Military Port, England

Because the Pétain government and Hitler had signed an armistice, and de Gaulle began to propagate in London to continue to resist Germany and insist on fighting, the French navy was divided into two parts, one demanded to continue fighting until complete victory, and the other required to obey the government's orders and return to France.

Both factions have their own reasons, and neither can convince the other for a while, so they can only stay in the UK for a while, and wait for the internal rationalization, but fortunately, they are both French after all, and they also understand each other's positions, so there is no infighting.

"Look! That's the warship of the British! A French sailor said, pointing into the distance.

"This is England, isn't it the most normal thing to have a British warship? The soldier next to him said disapprovingly, in fact, although Britain lent the military port to the French army, but since France and Germany were ready to sign an agreement, the British army slowly strengthened its strength near the military port, although the French army protested, but there was nothing to be done.

"But they are in battle formations .... The gunsuit was also withdrawn. The sailor shouted as he felt something was wrong.

The battleship of the navy is a kind of grass resistant and extremely valuable weapon, especially the battleship's naval guns, the general life is hundreds of rounds, so great attention is paid to maintenance, usually covered with gun clothing, so the removal of the gun's armor can basically be regarded as a precursor to war, not to mention that the formation of the battleship is also extremely particular, to use the flanks to the enemy in order to maximize the tilt of their firepower, if a fleet has such two characteristics at the same time, it is obviously about to go to war.

"Quick! Pull the alarm! My God! What's going on? Are the British going to war with us? ”

The piercing sirens instantly sounded in the sky, and the sailors who were resting in the cabin hurried out and began to prepare for battle, while the commander of the fleet, Vice Admiral Misellier, immediately sent someone to contact the British fleet to see what was going on, that is, to fight, and to tell us why we were fighting, we were allies a few days ago.

"Report to the Commander! The British, saying that our government had betrayed the Anglo-French alliance and had become a German minion, now give us two choices, either join General de Gaulle's Free France and fight Germany until the last moment, or sink itself in six hours or be sunk in six hours! The liaison officer ran over and said.

"What? Do you want us to take refuge in Charles de Gaulle? He's just a brigadier general, and our general is a lieutenant general, does he recognize the rank? Or are you not a soldier anymore? When the naval officer next to him heard that he was going to listen to De Gaulle, he immediately said that he was one of the leaders of the return faction, and the commander of the fleet, Missellier, did not speak on the surface, but also did not feel angry in his heart, he took a telescope and looked at the British fleet not far away, and only saw four or five battleships and four or five large cruisers as the main force of the fleet looking at his own fleet, he said, "Go and tell the British, we can not leave England, we will not surrender to Germany, but we cannot go to war with our motherland, We hope that neutrality can be achieved until the end of this war. ”

Although several other people felt angry, the situation was like this, and they reluctantly agreed.

After a few minutes, the communication tube came again and said to Missellier, "Commander, they have rejected our request, and said that it was with the permission of General de Gaulle. ”

"Traitor!"

"What qualifications did de Gaulle have to decide the fate of the Navy?"

"The great French fleet must not surrender!"

"Tong" "Tong" "Tong"

There were bursts of artillery in the distance, and Missellier saw that the British fleet was shelling the sea, and knew that it was the British who were forcing themselves to make a choice, he looked at his men and said, "Our fleet is not our own, but all the French people, we cannot selfishly sink the ship for any reason, in any case, the war will eventually end, and France will still need these warships, so I decided to go to de Gaulle and cooperate with the British." ”

"Great!"

"This won't work! General Missellier! ”

There were all kinds of voices, and Misserier shook his hand and said, "I have decided, this is my military order, I hope you will obey my orders!" ”

The crowd agreed, either joyfully or reluctantly, that de Gaulle's Free France had its first fleet.

But Missellier was willing to cooperate with De Gaulle with the British, but the French fleet in the other Portsmouth military port chose to sink itself, they were in tears, singing, watching their beloved battleship sink to the bottom of the sea, Churchill did not have any emotional fluctuations after getting the news, you know, the real main force of the French fleet is in Toulon and other colonies, Churchill asked de Gaulle to send a telegram to all the colonies, asking them to refuse the order of the Petain government in Paris, France, and accept the order of de Gaulle's Free France instead, De Gaulle was naturally happy to do so, less than a week after the British raided the French fleet, the fleets of the colonies in France made a choice, and most of the fleets chose to obey the orders of the Petain government, after all, now the Petain government and Germany control the entire French mainland, and Petain is not a complete traitor, according to the agreement, there are still large areas of land that belong to the free zone, completely ruled and governed by the French, and even the French colonies such as North Africa, Germany did not invade, Such conditions are not too excessive compared to the end of Germany in the last war, anyway, those lost territories can be slowly regained in the subsequent political means and negotiations, didn't Hitler do this, and now it is France's turn.

-- Beilun

Dönitz looked at the telegram he got in the submarine, smiled and said, "I was really right by Jiang, the British really attacked the French, aren't they afraid of completely settling enemies with the French?" ”

The staff officer next to him thought for a while and said, "General, maybe they think that with De Gaulle, the French will obey De Gaulle's orders and fight with us." ”

"Charles de Gaulle? Nobody.... What's going on in Africa? Dönitz asked

"It should take some time to get to the designated location, do the British really dare to come?" The staff officer said in unimaginable terms, knowing that Britain had just suffered a major defeat, and now it was time to lick its wounds, and it was really not in line with military common sense to attack now.

"It's normal, the worst of our three armed forces is the navy, there are hardly many large warships, and now with the addition of French warships, our strength has increased rapidly, and the British, of course, are restless, wait and see if our Chinese friends are right again." Dönitz said with a smile.

In the middle of the night, the sky slowly began to rain lightly, Dönitz was lying on a recliner with his eyes closed, waiting, and a sonar soldier suddenly took off his headset and said, "Report, I found that a fleet is approaching in my direction." ”

Dönitz's eyes lit up and he smiled, "Good! It must be the fleet of the British, quick! Be careful! ”

The periscope slowly rose up, and Dönitz looked into the distance, barely seeing anything at night, but he had a gut feeling that a large fleet was coming towards him on the opposite side.

The location where Dönitz is now located is the only place for the British fleet to reach the Beilun military port, and Dönitz has concentrated more than thirty submarines to ambush here, waiting for the arrival of the British fleet.

"Good! All submarines remain silent, let's see what choice the French will make. Dönitz did not disarm the French army directly as often suggested, in Hitler's heart, he still hoped to get help from the French army, if he directly disarmed the French fleet, it was likely to make Hitler's plan problematic, so he was ready to wait until the British fleet came to kick the British fleet's ass, if the French army and the British fleet were at war, if they did not fight and chose to sink themselves, he could also bite off a large piece of British meat.

In fact, Jiang Cheng did not fully understand Dönitz's psychology, the reason why Dönitz ascended to the position so quickly is because of his representative of the submarine faction, if the German army has a large number of surface fleets, it will naturally reduce the investment in underwater submarines, so these warships in the hands of the French army or sink themselves are more beneficial to Dönitz than in the hands of the German army, of course, Dönitz's thoughts are only subconscious, and they have not really become mental tricks.

"It's the Grand Fleet, I can see it." Dönitz smiled and whispered, maybe it was a coincidence, the British fleet just appeared on the left side of the German submarine, Dönitz clearly saw a black shadow passing by his side, because it was night, and it was raining, the British fleet also carried out light control in order to prevent detection, if it was not too close, I am afraid that it was passing by his side, Dönitz would not know.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

To Dönitz's surprise, the British fleet did not make contact with the French army, and directly attacked the French fleet, in fact, the British fleet also hoped to persuade the French army to surrender, but this is France itself, and the German army can appear at any time, and the British really don't have six time to give the French army, so they can only fight first.

“... Who told me that the British were gentlemen, and I was anxious with him, had Britain and France declared war? Dönitz looked at such a scene and exclaimed in surprise: "The French will be finished!" Immediately rush up and blow up and sink the British! ”

The loud explosion woke the French from their sleep, and Admiral François Darlan, who was hurrying to get dressed, looked into the distance as the British guns illuminated the British warship, and he could tell at a glance that it was a British warship.

"The British are attacking us?" François Darlan felt that his head was running out of steam, although he had received the news that the British had lifted the siege of the French warships in England, but after all, it was in England itself, and there was a precedent for such a thing, but now to attack the warships of the French mainland - this is too shameful, even the Germans allowed France to have a navy.

Darlan immediately ordered to start a counterattack, but the British battleships were walking at sea, the French battleships were motionless in the harbor, and even the ammunition was not ready, the situation was extremely unfavorable to the French army, Darlan only felt that his heart was bleeding, you must know that the reorganization of the French navy was completed in his hands, and now he wants to see his destruction with his own eyes, such a thing is really unacceptable.

A loud explosion pulled him out of his mind, and he was pleasantly surprised to see that one of the Monarch-class battleships in the British fleet had been hit on the flank... Flank? Darlan suddenly felt that something was wrong, and when he continued to look, he found that the place where the fire was burning was near the waterline, which was torpedoed.

Before it was over, there were one explosion after another in the British fleet, and in just two minutes, two battleships, a heavy cruiser and a light cruiser and two destroyers were besieged, all on the left or right flank, and the British navy was surrounded...

"Long live the German submarines!! Long live Hitler!! Darlan shouted excitedly, although he didn't know why the Germans appeared in such a strange position, after all, now the German submarine saved the life of his fleet, as a veteran of the navy, he knew very well that there was only one way in front of the British fleet, and that was to retreat.

Sure enough, the British fleet did not expect that there would be so many underwater hungry wolves lurking around them, they threw depth charges at the suspicious sea like crazy, and at the same time wanted to leave this sea area.

The British fleet began to evacuate, and only one battleship and three or four cruisers and destroyers were really sunk, and the rest of the wounded ships were brought back, and Dönitz looked at the British fleet in the distance and felt great pity.

"Commander, we have to replace our torpedoes, our current torpedoes are still too small in attack power in front of battleships." The staff officer next to him said to Dönitz.

Dönitz nodded and said, "I know, there are new torpedoes, and they will be ready for use right away." Let's go meet the French. ”

"Report! C Fleet Battle Report, Yesterday evening, the British fleet suddenly appeared on the coast of North Africa at the military ports of Oran and Mearsbiel. The British Navy's "H Fleet", under the command of Vice Admiral Somerville, surrounded the French fleet in the military harbor and put forward the conditions: either to join the British in the war against Germany, or to scuttle all the ships in six hours. The French army under the command of Admiral Jean Sur fought back, and our army raided the British fleet in a fierce battle, and won a great victory, in this battle, our army lost five submarines, the French lost one battleship, two heavy cruisers, eight destroyers, and lost more than 1,500 men, and the British lost two battleships, one battle cruiser, four cruisers, and five destroyers. ”

Dönitz clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Good! Immediately send a telegram to the Führer, the British have only a dozen battleships in total, and we will kill him three in one day, see if he is distressed! ”

When the next day's newspaper reported on yesterday's naval battle, the whole world was stunned, the British and the French fought fiercely, the French were rescued by the Germans, the Pétain government announced that it had severed all relations with the British, and the French naval commander-in-chief, Darlan, declared that all French navies should fight the British to the end? What is even more surprising is that it was Britain who went to attack the French army, but under the rescue of the German navy, the losses were even heavier than the French army, and the battleships alone lost three, namely the Royal Oak, the Hood and the War Weyware, although most of them were old ships of the First World War, but it was enough to make the British Navy lose face.
