Chapter 148: sea transportation


   "Woohoo." The train whistled and drove into the station.
Inside the stuffy tanker, there is an unpleasant smell. In the past few days, they have been around the entire Spain. The disadvantage is that they are almost falling apart these days. The strongest fighters are holding back a few in the stuffy tanker. God will collapse.
  The good thing is that they finally transported the gold in this carriage to the port safely!
   Pushing open the door of the stuffy tanker, a fresh sea breeze blows over, and everyone feels more comfortable.
   "Quick, quick, quick!" At this time, Alexander's eyes were all bloodshot. Over the past few days, he has changed the route many times, and finally, the gold was transported to the port without fail.
   Now, the eyeliners of those Germans may still be waiting for themselves in the southern port? Alexander was quite proud, and he was quite calm all the way.
   Now, there is only one last thing left, take these gold on board!
   The train drove directly to the port, and there was a distance of hundreds of meters from the train spaces in the port to the Soviet cargo ship Amur moored on the dock.
   There is one last thing left.
   Alexander cheered up. He knew that he couldn't let his guard down now. Maybe those guys would come here to grab it? Six hundred tons of gold, this is a figure that drives countless people crazy.
   Moreover, the work of moving is very slow.
   Standing at one of the highest points of the dock, Alexander personally supervised the transportation. This was the final task.
  As long as the gold is carried on the cargo ship, Alexander's mission will be over.
   After all, a cargo ship is a country’s maritime territory. No one will intercept the cargo ship without a valid reason.
  At the same time, in order to prevent accidents, the cargo ship Amur will never act on its own. The Soviet warship Tashkent-class destroyer has already arrived here at the same time. When it returns, it will provide protection along the way.
  Actually, the scale of this destroyer is a bit small. If news of the Amur transporting gold leaks out, it might attract more coveters. However, this destroyer represents the Soviets, and an attack on this warship means a declaration of war on the Soviet Union.
  All countries will definitely weigh it up. In the end, they can only watch their own warship the transport ship away, and absolutely dare not start.
   Moreover, only this one will not attract the attention of other countries. If a large number of warships are sent in mighty forces, the British will definitely be the first to be alert.
  The most worrying thing is the land. As long as he gets on the boat and leaves the port, Alexander can breathe a sigh of relief.
   He didn't know. At this time, a few kilometers away from the port, someone was already observing the roof of a small building.
   "We guessed right, the Soviets, as expected, unloaded and loaded the ship from here." Facing the sea breeze, he carefully observed this side with a binoculars, and Reinhardt sat down with a relaxed expression.
   "Major Reinhardt, you are so amazing!" the assistant said admiringly.
   "On land, it's nothing. We need to inform Captain Skorzny and come down to see them." Reinhardt said.
Reinhardt regrets that due to various factors, he could not rob this lot of gold on the ground. His task is to supervise and find all the intelligence of the other party, and the action is handed over to the people led by Skorzny. Finished.
   I really want to grab the gold by myself.
   These golds were moved for a whole day. When night fell, the Amur and Tashkent-class destroyers secretly left the port and embarked on the return journey.
   Amur, a cargo ship with a displacement of 1,000 tons, is now loaded with 600 tons of gold, the cargo ship is already very heavy, the draft is deep, and the speed has also dropped.
   The two large chimneys at the top continuously emit puffs of black smoke, and the boiler is working at full power. Unfortunately, the ship can only be driven to 12 knots.
  Compared with cargo ships, this is already a good speed, and some of the supertankers of later generations can only travel at 6 knots.
   And the Tashkent class on the other side is a little impatient.
   The historical Tashkent class is a warship built by the Italians to help the Soviet Union. It was not built until 37 years later. It was a high-speed ship. In the trial voyage, it ran out at a high speed of 43.5 knots, which was considered a success.
   And now, Germany has robbed the Italians of the contract, or that it has nothing to do with the Italians. Cyric's visit has successfully taken down this kind of ship and built a ship for the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union is quite satisfied.
Therefore, the Tashkent class is different from the history. For example, from the perspective of power, this warship does not use a boiler, but uses the latest German MAN diesel engine ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Although only two are equipped, it can Let this warship reach a high speed of 30 knots. At the same time, the endurance brought by the diesel engine has also been greatly improved, exceeding 10,000 nautical miles.
   After this warship was equipped with the Soviet Navy, they were very satisfied. If it were not for the follow-up plan to purchase aircraft carriers, the Soviet Union planned to let Germany provide a few more warships of the same type.
   Now, on the Tashkent-class destroyer, Captain Nicholas is standing on the bridge, looking at the night sky in the darkness, feeling a little anxious.
   "Amur, why is it so slow? Can't they hurry up?" Nikolai said.
   "We have used the lights to urge, but the Amur is a cargo ship after all, and the current speed is already very difficult." First officer Grassi said to him.
   "I really don't know what those people in Moscow think." Nikolai said, "Why don't you send a clipper."
Nicholas is not in charge of matters on land, but when it comes to sea, Nicholas is the nanny. He must ensure the safety of the Amur. The shorter the time at sea, the better, and according to the current speed, he has to go up. Half a month!
   Now, the mighty purge that took place in the Soviets has not yet begun. If another year passes, Nicholas’s words will be enough to kill him.
   "Gracy, you are here on duty." Nikolai finally left the bridge helplessly. He was tired and should go back to rest. The voyage on the sea was destined to be long.
   On the lower level, in the engine room, the engineer yawned, and was lethargic amidst the noise and vibration.
   This can be said to be the most difficult place on the entire warship, and it is also the only place where military capacity is not guaranteed. For example, the current marine engineers wear almost only one pants, and sweat is constantly falling.
   This is a normal night.
