Late at night on September 8, Liverpool, an important city in western Ennd. On a blocked military pier, a destroyer is moored here.


    Following the lights on the pier, soldiers were loading boxes of bulky things onto the destroyer. A middle-aged man in a suit was talking to a captain officer.


    "Captain John, you must safely transport these items to Canada. This is rted to the future of the British Empire!" The middle-aged man looked serious.


    "Yes, sir, I will do my best." Captain John nodded. He is the captain of the destroyer named ''Lancaster''. Among the many destroyers of the British Royal Navy, this destroyer has a very strong performance. The discement has reached thousands of tons, and the maximum speed is as high as 35 knots.


    "We have prepared supplies for you in d. After the battleship arrives there, you can replenish fuel and fresh water, and then sail all the way to Canada without stopping. Arriving in Canada safely is the greatest victory. God will bless you!" said the middle-aged man.


    "Sir, my luck has always been good. This time, I believe I will be able to reach Canada safely." Captain John said with a smile.


    Soon, all the goods were loaded onto the warship.


    "Sir, it''s almost time, I have to go." Captain John said.


    The middle-aged man nodded,


    Captain John yed on the warship.


    The destroyer ''Lancaster''unched, and the battleship slowly withdrew from the pier, turned around and sailed into the Irish Sea. They need to enter the Antic Ocean before dawn, and then sail westward at high speed to reach Canada.


    Of course, if they encounter a German warship on the way, they have to make a detour to escape. Although the performance of the destroyer "Lancaster" is good, it is nothing more than a destroyer. The 114mm naval gun is obviously unable to confront the German battleship. Once you encounter a battleship of the German Navy, you will only have to escape for your life. However, with a speed of up to 35 knots, the destroyer "Lancaster" has a little more possibility of escaping. It is not so easy for the battleships or cruisers of the German Navy to catch up.


    The destroyer ''Lancaster'' transported one hundred tons of gold, which was worth more than fifteen million pounds. Moreover, it is still the value of the pound before therge-scale depreciation. After the gold arrives in Canada, it will be an important fund for the rise of Britain in Canada. Of course, this one hundred tons of gold is only a small part of Britain''s huge wealth. They had still more gold and other riches waiting to be shipped to Canada by various means.


    As soon as the destroyer "Lancaster" left the port, a telegram was sent from a poor area in Liverpool. In the telegram, the departure time and route of the destroyer ''Lancaster'' were clearly marked.


    In order to intercept the wealth that the British are about to ship to Canada, the German intelligence agency has spent a lot of money. Many intelligence personnel who have been lurking for many years have been activated to search for relevant information. In addition, the current war situation is very unfavorable to Britain, which makes many British people desperate, and they are naturally willing to cooperate with Germany. This allowed German intelligence agencies to finally grasp the information.


    On the Antic Ocean, the German Navy responded immediately. The battlecruiser "Blücher", with two light cruisers and six destroyers, formed a hunting fleet, preparing to encircle and suppress the destroyer "Lancaster". The order they received was that it would be best if they could force the destroyer Lancaster to surrender. If it doesn''t work, it will be sunk. It would be better for the gold to sink into the Antic than for the British to ship it safely to Canada. Besides, after sinking into the Antic Ocean, Germany can organize salvage forces to salvage it, and maybe it can be salvaged.


    At dawn on the morning of September 9, the destroyer "Lancaster" had already entered the Antic Ocean. The heart that Captain John had been hanging on for a long time finally returned to his stomach.


    The Antic Ocean is vast and boundless. As long as warships enter the Antic Ocean, it will be very difficult for the German Navy to find them again. After all, in the era when there were no reconnaissance satellites, searching for warships at sea was like finding a needle in a haystack.


    "Captain, what exactly are we transporting this time? So mysterious?" an officer asked curiously.


    "Shut up, don''t ask more questions than you should. This is a secret of the empire!" Captain John said with a straight face.


    Immediately, the officer had no choice but to say no more. Of course, the curiosity in my heart must be indispensable.


    On the entire warship, except for Captain John, no one else knew what they were transporting. This is undoubtedly for secrecy. The value of one hundred tons of gold is astonishing. It is already possible to build several of thetest capital ships. Therefore, Captain John naturally knew how important this mission was.


    At 7 o''clock in the morning, the destroyer "Lancaster" continued to sail. Captain John was very tired after staying up all night. After he exined a few words to the navigator, he went to the captain''s cabin to rest.


    Ten minutester, a seane flew from the northern sky. After discovering this seane, the British naval officers and soldiers on the destroyer "Lancaster" felt as if they were facing a big enemy.


    The navigator ordered the warship to turn, and at the same time sent someone to call Captain John.


    Captain John was woken up just after falling asleep, which made him very annoyed. However, the current situation could no longer allow him to get angry.


    "Damn, why is the German seane here? Has our whereabouts been exposed?" Captain John cursed.


    The mission they performed this time was a secret mission, and the level of secrecy was very high. It stands to reason that it is unlikely that the news will be leaked. However, the German seanes appeared, which undoubtedly exins the problem.


    "Captain, what should we do now?" asked the navigator.


    Captain John frowned and thought for a while, and then said: "The battleship continues to move forward, pay close attention to the surrounding sea area, and once you find a German ship, turn immediately!"


    It was just the seanes of the Germans, which did not pose much threat to them. However, Captain John knew that other warships of the German Navy must be on their way.


    Captain John''s guess is not wrong, the German fleet is indeed operating in this sea area. After receiving the report from the seane, the fleet immediately approached the destroyer ''Lancaster''. Especially those destroyers have already increased their speed to the maximum.
