Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

The attendant frowned and said, "What is Lin Yuan? How dare you order the people of our British Empire not to leave Mumbai? It's too arrogant. I think reading this telegram is an offense to you, so I didn't dare to read it. "

After listening to the attendant's words, Tanzambique laughed loudly, and laughed for a long time before saying: "This is Lin Yuan's psychological tactics, bluffing, what's there to be afraid of?"

The attendant hurriedly said: "Lin Yuan is famous for his words and deeds, how could he intend to intimidate?"

Tanzambique asked with a smile: "Do you know how far Mumbai is from Madras?"

The attendant thought for a while and replied: "It seems to be more than 1200 kilometers?"

Tanzambique said with a smile: "It's 1345 kilometers. If Lin Yuan's aircraft wants to fly this distance, the payload must be very low. The low payload means that it cannot carry large anti-ship weapons, so Lin Yuan can't fly at all. Without the ability to attack us, Lin Yuan is just talking big talk."

The attendant hurriedly asked: "Then Lin Yuan has no other means of attack?"

Tanzambique laughed, and said: "What other means of attack are there? Forget it, don't say much, don't pay attention to Lin Yuan, and don't need to announce this telegram to the outside world. By the way, the 'Mag' How is the Lite' big cruise ship getting ready?"

The attendant hastily lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, the Margaret is loaded with your treasures and a thousand rich British businessmen. It will leave the port in an hour and head for San Francisco in the western United States."

Tanzambique nodded and said: "Very well, this ship is loaded with a lot of my treasures. I have been operating in Mumbai for so many years, and most of the good things I have accumulated are on it. I must let this ship arrive safely. U.S."

The attendant said, "Why don't I call the captain of the Margarita right now and let him set sail immediately?"

Tanzambique gave a "hmm" and said, "Let it set sail quickly, Lin Yuan is full of tricks, if he really has some tricks, it will be extremely bad for us."

The attendant agreed, and ran out to make a phone call. The captain of the Margaret, Royce, immediately ordered to set sail. The displacement of the large cruise ship Margaret was as high as [-] tons, which even surpassed the main force of the British Navy. Battleship, so the whole ship looks like a moving mountain on the sea. In navigation, it is an international practice for small boats to avoid big ships. Because it is easier for small boats to turn, the small boats in the channel turned one after another to make way for the Margaret. .

The Margarita was equipped with 32 boilers and 3 steam turbines. Even so, it was quite laborious to start. After an hour of twists and turns, the Margarita finally left the port and sailed into the blue Indian Ocean.

The Margaret was traveling at an economical speed of 15 knots. The captain, Captain Royce, was standing in the command room, staring closely at the distant sea. He was afraid that other ships would suddenly appear on the route. Margaret After all, the No. [-] is a large ship with a displacement of [-] tons, and it is also a cruise ship, not a high-mobility ship like a warship. The difference in maneuverability of the Margarita can be imagined, so Captain Royce is very afraid that there will be a sudden appearance ahead. A ship, I couldn't avoid it in time, and then collided. The rich businessmen in Mumbai were sitting on the ship. They are inextricably linked with the British political circles. If they hurt anyone, they will be finished.

The Margaret was thinking about it, when the chief of communications suddenly ran over and said, "Report to Captain Royce, we suddenly received a message from the Chinese Navy."

Captain Royce was taken aback, and said to himself, "Chinese navy? Isn't the Chinese navy in Madras? Why did it come so soon?"

Captain Royce muttered something, then smiled and said to the communications officer: "What did the Chinese navy say? Is it 'Suspect your ship has pirates, please stop the ship for inspection'?"

The chief of communications shook his head and said: "The Chinese navy didn't say that. They said that Lin Yuan had issued an order that all British people in Mumbai must stay in Mumbai and wait for Lin Yuan's trial. Anyone who leaves without authorization will be shot. Turn the ship around and return to Bombay, or it will sink us."

Captain Royce frowned, raised his binoculars and looked around, but found no ships of the Chinese Navy, and asked in surprise, "Where are the ships of the Chinese Navy?"

The correspondent said: "The telegram says they are following us at four o'clock."

Captain Royce hurried to the side of the porthole, raised his binoculars and looked in the direction of four o'clock, and found a long strip-shaped thing on the sea, which was half buried in the water, somewhat similar to a ship , but there is a big difference.

The binoculars in Captain Royce's hand suddenly fell on his chest. He took two steps back and said in shock, "Oh my God, it's a Chinese submarine."

The communications chief was also stunned, and said in a trembling voice: "Why is it a submarine? Why did the Chinese submarine come to us?"

Captain Royce hurriedly said: "It's too late to think too much now, so I quickly sent a telegram to the Governor of Tanzambique and asked him to make a decision. Should we follow the Chinese's order to return?"

The chief of communications sent out a telegram in a hurry. Tanzambique was dumbfounded when he received the telegram. He shook his head desperately and said, "Oh my god, it's incredible that Lin Yuan sent the submarine here."

The attendant said from the side: "Master Governor, we can't just watch the Margaret suffer, let's let the Margaret come back."

Tanzambique's complexion suddenly sank, and he said: "No! The Margaret cannot be allowed to come back. The Chinese will become more and more powerful in Mumbai. If the Margaret does not escape, there must be no chance." , I heard some experts say that the speed of submarines is very slow. The Margaret is a large ship equipped with 32 boilers and 3 steam turbines. Its speed can reach 20 knots. As long as the speed is increased, the Chinese submarine is Absolutely can't catch up."

The attendant asked tentatively: "Then I will order Captain Royce to speed up and escape?"

Tanzambique nodded emphatically, and the attendant immediately sent a telegram. Captain Royce picked up the communicator and ordered: "Four cars advance three, accelerate to the maximum speed!"

The Margaret is a ship equipped with four propellers, so Captain Royce gave the order of "four cars advance three", and the Margaret immediately accelerated, cut through the waves, and sailed far away .

Inside the Chinese Navy submarine, Commander Guan Tong said loudly to the captain: "Report to the captain, the enemy ship has accelerated and wants to escape."

The captain smiled helplessly, and said, "Does a civilian cruise ship still want to race with a nuclear submarine? Increase the power of the pressurized water reactor and catch up."
