Rows of planes on the deck of the aircraft carrier have been pushed to the take-off position at one end of the deck, and the propeller has been turned. The smoke emitted by the motive is filled in the air. For pilots and crew, this is the smell of fighting, and this is the smell of victory.
The German new airship base in Foellner, Belgium is full of cigar-shaped behemoths, and the crew members have untied the cable "Zeppelin" and buzzed away and finally disappeared into people’s sight.
Calais, a coastal city in France, has become a frontier for German planes to bomb Britain. Various planes are parked on several large lawns near Calais. In the south of the city, a piece of earth and stone is being filled. The airport is also stepping up construction. The latest "Owl" heavy bomber takes off and lands. The ground crew is busy fighting bombers and bombers turn their propellers, and the whole ground is soon covered by a rumbling motive.
Prince looked at the tanks and armored cars on the Berlin train platform smugly. Just last night, with the help of the Queen, he finally succeeded in persuading William II to transfer the armored army to the front line. This armored army rushed the vanguard of Prince’s 5 th regiment to Verdun to the Oriental Gate of Paris.
At eleven o’clock in the afternoon, Londoners finally got what they had been waiting for.
3o5 German planes flew over the Dover Strait and appeared in the British. This is the largest group flight in the history of wooden planes, with a range of 2ookg3ookg. German planes brought about 0 tons of zha medicine at one time, and thousands of black bombs doused the hope in every British heart.
Thirty-seven British aircraft also appeared in the London wing ring logo, which cheered the British people on the ground. Londoners didn’t know that these were the last planes and pilots of the British Air Force. At the beginning of the war, Britain had more than 200 planes and lost more than half of them in the French battlefield. A few days ago, it was hit hard again in Dover, and a large number of planes and excellent pilots were lost. These 37 pilots were almost inexperienced novices, and they were also unfamiliar with the performance of the newly installed weapons of the British aircraft. The factory has been working hard, but the output is still not optimistic. People have been purchasing more aircraft from Germany and Britain, and the root of the aircraft industry has not been greatly developed. Compared with their root of shipbuilding industry,
Nearly 100 Tian fighter-bombers in the German fleet suddenly rushed out like a flock of eagles to pounce on their prey. Many German pilots have experienced the French War and are very experienced in Chinese fighting. They kept a keen eye on the few British planes. These British planes were temporarily equipped with machine guns and were arranged according to German torpedo weapons. However, the torpedo plane is the weakest attack aircraft except reconnaissance planes. The machine guns on the front of the British plane are equipped with two machine guns and one machine gun in the co-pilot position. The German fighter-bombers are simply not in the same level, and there is a huge difference in experience, quality and quantity.
British pilots pulled the trigger at a long distance, and a string of white bullets flashed across the distance. When the distance was shortened, the German plane easily dodged. When the distance was shortened, the color bullets hit the metal motive and the wooden skeleton, making a completely different sound.
Londoners have forgotten to hide. Adults and children are watching their planes in the street. Germans are fighting. Everyone is expecting the British Hawk to drive the German planes away. However, one after another, dragging smoke or breaking wings and falling down, but being painted with British rings marks that people’s mood is getting heavier and heavier.
The sky is getting more and more chaotic, and planes are chasing each other everywhere, which makes people worry that they will accidentally collide.
A German fighter-bomber grabbed the British plane’s ass tightly. Obviously, the British didn’t have much to do. The plane was quickly chased by the German plane. Two long bullets flew across the British plane’s wing and the British plane suddenly lost ground.
A British biplane single-seater finally stared at a German plane, but the British pilot was surprised to see that the other side swung two wings, a sharp turn disappeared, and when he was looking around, two deadly bombs flew from his back …
37o！
The first battle in London ended with such a big score. While German pilots marveled at the superior performance of their own planes, they also silently admired those British pilots who flew simple and old planes without fear. During the whole massacre, no British pilots escaped. Their blood defended the honor of the British Airways Force.
In addition, except for a small number of old reconnaissance planes, there is no Hawk belonging to the British in the British Isles.
German fighter-bombers regrouped in formation, and bombers also dropped bombs one after another. Black raindrops fell to the ground, and flames and smoke kept rising.
Only 15 minutes later, the bombing ended. The main targets of military camps, factories and shipyards were destroyed or ignited. Some government and civilian buildings were also attacked by bombs. It seems that the whole of London is braving black smoke, fire engines jingling, people crying for help, children crying, and British ground machine guns shooting almost filled the whole city with water columns spraying burning rooms everywhere.
I bombed London! A sense of pride and satisfaction rose in the hearts of German pilots returning home.
Seeing the smoke, the British naval officers and men in London clenched their fists and vowed to fight to the death for the German navy. However, the German warships did not appear. They were waiting for bombs and torpedoes from the German naval air force
Hundreds of warships, large and small, were crowded in a narrow sea area and decadent in the "fishing operation". At this time, the German torpedo machine finally showed its great power. The torpedo depth was adjusted very shallowly, and even the wooden warships failed to fly in. Many British warships just escaped from one torpedo and were hit by another. There are also poor wooden hulls of old warships. A nearly lost bomb can blow them out of a big hole. The British machine guns are crazy. Machine guns and scattered grenades fired at the Germans, and several white spots rose obliquely into the middle and then fell in the distance. After the German plane left, the sea was in a mess, with burning floating objects and broken pieces of wood everywhere, and some twisted warships were still struggling to swim to the surrounding ships.
At lunchtime, the tycoons finally flew to Britain, and the bombs they carried were far more numerous and heavier than those of airplanes. Seventy-six airships of various types brought over 100 tons of bombs at one time, and the mental stress brought by heavy bombs was not comparable to that brought by airplanes. A loud noise shocked the soul of every Londoner, as if iron fists had been slammed on the land of England again and again.
The first wave of attacks ended, and the British machine gunners sat in the battle position panting heavily. During the whole afternoon battle, they didn’t shoot down a German plane to bomb the city. The German planes dropped bombs at a higher altitude and didn’t strafe the ground. The German bombers who attacked the British fleet didn’t lower their altitude at all, and the torpedo planes were also conveniently dropped far away. The Germans were consciously sacrificing accuracy to ensure that the planes and pilots were safe and dealt a maximum blow to the British confidence.
British citizens in London are busy cleaning up the mess.
German pilots in Calais, France sit in the shade and enjoy delicious sardines, beef and potato soup.
German airship pilots in Dover Strait enjoyed the beautiful sea view while chewing bread.
Pilots of the naval air force of the aircraft carrier leisurely drink coffee or watch the crew load petrol bombs into the plane one by one and then sigh.
The admirals and generals of the British Admiralty looked at the delicious food in front of them, but they didn’t want to talk; The ministers and generals of the 6 th Army Department of the United Kingdom looked at the piles of conscription orders on the table but were troubled by the training of recruits and weapons and equipment; The ground crew of British Airways watched the pilots pass the tableware and burst into tears.
The officers and men of the British navy at the mouth of the Thames couldn’t stand it any longer. Seven armored battleships and five cruisers of the first sub-fleet led by John Joe, vice admiral, sailed angrily eastward to the second sub-fleet. Six armored battleships and four cruisers led by Smith, vice admiral, sailed to Calais, and many small warships joined the two revenge fleets themselves.
Churchill and Betty were surprised to get the news that two sub-fleets set sail without authorization. "Emperor! What are these impulsive stupid cows doing? "
Shortly after the two British fleets broke away from the big forces, a large number of planes flew over them and headed for London without looking back, but the line signals kept returning to Calais and the high seas fleet
When the second wave of planes flew to London, Londoners seemed to have gradually adapted to this noisy environment. The black bombs fell to the ground and the white bombs rose from the ground. The citizens put out fires and saved lives.
When the French retreated from Calais, France, several fortresses near Calais were destroyed, and a few fortress guns were left behind. Now the port defense is under the responsibility of four field artillery battalions of the German Sixth Army. Twelve 15 mm and 21 mm fortress guns were brought from Germany by train. At present, three submarines and two civilian boats modified patrol boats are parked in the temporary coastal fortifications. After receiving the news that the British fleet is coming to Calais, the German soldiers are nervously preparing to board the guns. A fortress gun slowly raised its muzzle and hid behind the coast. Sixteen 12 mm howitzers were also ready to shoot. Reconnaissance planes flew over the port and stopped at several airports near the coast and turned away from the coast.
Germany’s high seas fleet, 10 dreaded ships and 6 armored battleships, with 16 destroyers, sailed out of formation and displayed battle formation at 10 nautical miles in front of the aircraft carrier. The aircraft carrier was slowly raised to the deck at the landing point of the calibration projectile. The co-pilot carefully adjusted the surface line and established direct contact with their battleship shooting command post.
Chapter 16 A dead-end shine
At 3 o’clock in the afternoon, the second fleet of the British soil fleet led by Lieutenant General Smith has turned to Calais with the main gun of six armored battleships, four cruisers and some small warships outside Calais, and the soldiers of the German Sixth Army also watched them nervously behind the gun emplacement.
*********
An hour ago, the British Admiralty in London
"The situation of the Minister of the Navy is very unfavorable to us now!" Betty will rush in from the outside, and the military cap is still habitually worn obliquely on her head.
"Mr. Jiang has a good opinion?" Churchill replied with a straight face as if the world owed him a lot of money.
"We will be in the fleet to the mouth of the Thames. Now, not only have we not been able to fight the German fleet head-on, but we have also been bombed by German planes. This is very unfavorable for the strength of the imperial navy! Those two sub-fleets can’t be chased back. Let’s just attack the German fleet! " Betty put her hands on Churchill’s desk and sounded very depressed. "It’s better to hide the fleet than to stay here and get beaten!"
"Hide? Then the Germans can bombard London with swagger. What do you think that means? "
Churchill seems to be very resistant to this problem. He has thought about it many times before. He will disperse the fleet to the western ports of the British Isles to protect the sea transportation lines and harass the Germans on the North Sea route. If the Germans dare to board the British soil, they will attack the German fleet. This is of course a good way to maintain their strength. However, the German fleet is shelling and bombing British ports along the British coast all day, and several major ports and shipyards on the east coast of England have been hit hard. Not only do the British people feel panic about the potential of national sea war. The damaged royal family even ordered the navy to defend the capital. It is inevitable that London will be bombed by the Germans, but if it is directly bombarded by the German fleet, the morale of the British people will fall to the brink of collapse and there is a possibility of unrest. Even if the German fleet in London is abandoned, it will probably continue to attack other British ports and shipyards. Without these shipyards, Britain’s hope of reviving its navy will be dashed.
"Erpitz heydrich, that’s a tough move!" Churchill clenched his fist vigorously.
Betty sat down in the chair and took off her hat. "Alas! We are here waiting for the Germans to slowly destroy us a little bit! "
"I was going to wait for the arrival of the British-French joint fleet from the Mediterranean to fight back, but now it seems that we have no time! I really don’t have any choice now. Let’s attack! " The call to attack was so weak at this time, and Churchill’s heart was full of sadness.
"What? Attack? " Betty almost jumped up from her chair. "But without those two sub-fleets, our strength is even worse than that of the German fleet!" "
Churchill glanced at him and casually said, "If nothing unexpected happens, the German battleship fleet has now left their aircraft carrier formation to meet the John Joe sub-fleet alone. If John Joe wants to lead the German battleship fleet to us, there will be hope to destroy the German naval forces, and the German navy will pose a much smaller threat to us!"
