"This war, though it is still going on. However, the British have already attacked our homeland. The Army, which had just been in the southeast, was defeated by the Germans, losing millions of troops. Therefore, it now seems that it is very difficult to defeat the Germans and hold the homeland. In order to ensure that the empire can one day rise, we need to ship this gold to Canada as the capital of the empire's resurgence. However, it is a pity that I don't know which link went wrong, and the message still leaked. Captain John said with a bitter face.

"Captain, what do we do now? If the Germans do not accede to their demands, they will really kill us! A young sailor couldn't help but ask. Obviously, people don't want to die.

"Captain, now we are surrounded by German warships, and they can't escape. There are only two roads ahead of us, one is to sink into the sea with the gold. The other is to give them the gold in exchange for our lives, as the Germans demanded. The Navigator said.

Captain John nodded, they were indeed left with only two options. However, the choice of this made Captain John very difficult. If it were him, he would rather sink. In this way, the glory of the Royal Navy can also be maintained. However, Captain John could clearly see the desire to survive in the eyes of the sailors.

"For the sake of the interests of the British Empire and the glory of the Royal Navy, we should fight to the death, and we must not surrender to the Germans!" Captain John said.

"Captain, the Germans will kill us all. They are all devils and will do what they say! "A sailor was almost crying.

"Otherwise, let's open the sea valve and let the battleship sink! In this way, the gold would not have fallen into the hands of the Germans. An officer suggested.

"No, the Germans made it very clear, if they don't give them the gold, they will really kill us." A tall sailor shook his head in refusal.

Captain John's face couldn't help but look ugly, and he understood what they meant from the conversation between the men. Obviously, everyone wants to live. If he stubbornly orders the ship's sinking, they may immediately tie him up or even kill him. The interests of the Empire, the glory of the Royal Navy, seem so fragile and small when life is threatened.

"Captain, we all have families, and we don't want to die like this. Let's surrender to the Germans! A sailor pleaded with a look on his face.

Everyone else looked at Captain John with supplication as well.

"Alright, just do as you say!" Captain John sighed helplessly.

"Yes, Captain!" The other sailors all had expressions on their faces that they would survive the catastrophe.

The destroyer 'Lancaster' immediately telegraphed back to the German fleet, and then, at the request of the German fleet, began to reduce its speed until it came to a complete stop.

The soldiers of the German marines, who had been ready for a long time, climbed aboard the destroyer "Lancaster" in a dinghy.

The British sailors were very cooperative, and the German Marines easily took control of the warship.

Subsequently, a large amount of gold began to be transferred to the battlecruiser 'Blucher'.

When the boxes were opened one by one, and the inside was full of glittering gold, everyone who saw this scene even became a little short of breath.

"Very well, the British are still very cooperative. Drive that destroyer back to Germany. Then, the battlecruiser 'Blucher' returned home, and the other battleships continued their mission! Major General Lübeck ordered.

One hundred tons of gold, worth more than three hundred million marks. This is also a lot of wealth for Germany. If it is used to build aircraft carriers, it is enough to build several.

The news that the destroyer 'Lancaster' had been captured by the German Navy shocked the British government. That's a hundred tons of gold! It was taken away by the Germans. Churchill was also very troubled, and although he had asked the Gold Transit Committee to keep it strictly confidential, this was the end result.

However, despite the failure of the destroyer Lancaster, Churchill still asked the Gold Transit Committee to continue to find a way to transport the wealth to Canada. If they had stayed in Britain, once the British Home Army had been defeated, all that wealth would have fallen into the hands of the Germans. Rather than that, it is better to ship to Canada as much as possible. Even if there will be some failures, you will be able to carry some wealth away. After the fall of the British Empire itself, they could count on a resurgence of that wealth. Otherwise, Canada's millions of people and tax revenues alone would not have been able to achieve their plans.

In addition to the use of destroyers to transport those riches, the British Gold Transit Board adopted submarines. Compared to destroyers, submarines are more secrecy and less easy to detect. However, after the German intelligence agencies understood the means and routes of transportation of the British wealth, they still blocked the British several times.

One submarine had just entered the Atlantic Ocean when it encountered a destroyer of the German Navy. As a last resort, the British submarine could only dive urgently to evade.

However, the destroyers of the German Navy continued to drop depth charges, forcing the British submarine to surface.

Eventually, the British submarine was damaged and had to float. The hundreds of tons of gold it transported also fell into the hands of the Germans. If the submarine does not float, then it will have to sink to the bottom of the sea. Those submariners who don't want to die will naturally take saving their lives as their first priority.

Of course, there are also people who see death as their home. In the battles of the German Navy to intercept the destroyers and submarines of the British, they often encountered people who fought to the death until they were sunk, and they would never surrender to the German Navy.

The action of the British Gold Transit Committee lasted for a full month. During this time, they used twenty destroyers and thirty submarines to transport the wealth. Some of this wealth was intercepted by the German navy, and others were sunk and sunk to the bottom of the icy Atlantic, where they became buried treasures at the bottom of the sea. The rest was safely transported to Canada. The total value of that wealth was in the hundreds of billions of marks. This is also the reason why the British government can still hold out in Canada after the fall of the homeland, and it also armed a strong army to constantly make trouble for Germany. It can be said that these wealth played a crucial role.
