"I don't know very well, according to the battle reports from our front, the Germans did not know that a large number of fighters suddenly appeared from there and completely annihilated the 12th Bomber Group!"

Viscount Aranbrook replied with an embarrassed expression. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"How could the Germans suddenly have a large number of fighters and attack the 12th Bomber Group? What are our intelligence networks eating! And how did the Germans know that we sent a bomber group in the morning to carry out a bombing mission on the Magana airfield! ”

Prime Minister Winston Churchill roared like thunder.

"Tsk! Needless to say, our intelligence must have leaked out! Otherwise, how would the Germans know our every move! ”

Before Viscount Aranbrook could reply, Marshal Dill gloated and sneered beside him.

And he also glanced at the angry Prime Minister Churchill with relish, and his heart was simply happy and elated.

"Humph! Finally see you damn bastard, it's time to get beaten up by the Germans! Deserve! Call you so hateful, let me demote! ”

At the same time, Marshal Dill was also in his heart, and muttered coldly to Churchill.

"Check it out! Whoever gave the information that betrayed us, I will deal with him severely! ”

In the face of Marshal Deere's flaming remarks and ridicule, Prime Minister Churchill was even more grim and roared loudly.

"Yes! Prime Minister Churchill! ”

The corners of Viscount Arambrook's eyebrows twitched, suppressing his anger and responding disapprovingly.

After saying that, he left in a hurry without looking back.

As for what Churchill continued to abuse behind him, he did not want to listen to it at all, and to pay attention to it.

"It's all a bunch of rubbish! Even bombing an island as small as tofu would have caused such heavy losses! How do you tell me to explain to President Roosevelt! ”

Churchill was agitated and continued to growl.

"That's right! This is a very serious problem, because I think Roosevelt would have known about it before we did! Eisenhower should have reported on him! But then again, I feel that we also need to properly rectify our intelligence network, and we only found out about such a big matter two days after the fact, which will be a great hindrance, disadvantage, and danger for us to understand the battle situation on the front line! ”

Marshal Dill was very calm and analyzed lightly.

"I agree with your suggestion! It's time to put the intelligence services in order! In fact, I now want to know most about how the Germans learned of our plans to bomb Magana airfield, and why they even knew so clearly about the timing of our attack! What the hell is that bastard who betrayed us! ”

Churchill squinted his eyes and said bitterly.

Marshal Dill did not respond to his words, but stood quietly and silently.

His face was expressionless, making it impossible to guess what his inner workings were at this moment.

In response, Churchill stopped talking, staring silently at New York Bay, which had been left behind the royal liner Queen Mary.

More than two hours later, the U.S. military dispatched six airboats from Tompkinsville on Staten Island to sail across the gray harbor to the HMS Queen Mary, a royal liner, ready to meet Churchill and all the high-ranking British officers who accompanied him.

It wasn't long before Churchill and his entourage of more than 150 generals, bodyguards, civilians and Royal Marines were stepping into the airboats and speeding towards Tompkinsville.

On the docks of the harbor, President Roosevelt's closest adviser, Harry ? Hopkins was waiting for them with a smile on his face.

Behind them, of course, there is the famous 'Federnand? Magellan's seven-car presidential train car, and its locomotive has been reoriented to face Washington.

Not long after, Churchill and his group of more than 150 people successfully landed on the dock.

All the soldiers and other staff members on the Royal Cruise Line Queen Mary, who were looking down on the German prisoners on board, cheered enthusiastically and cheered for Churchill and others who had successfully disembarked and landed.

Calm has been restored, and the matter of the 12th Bomber Group, which has just been received, has been completely blocked.

Because in his dictionary, he absolutely does not allow himself to be defeated by failure, or it can be said that he does not allow failure to exist in his heart.

"Wait and see! Germans! Our thunderous revenge will be upon us soon! I will never allow the British Empire to lose this damn war! ”

In Advisor Harry? Hopkins smiled brightly and accompanied enthusiastically; Churchill, who entered the carriage of the presidential train, made up his mind very firmly in his heart.

In a short time, the presidential train car slowly started up amid the noisy whistle, ready to speed away towards Washington.

At this time, Chen Yanlong was engrossed in studying the map of the Mediterranean Sea in the headquarters that Moder used for him.

But his gaze was always on Sicily and the surrounding islands.

Sicily is located in the south, in the middle of the Mediterranean, in the shape of a triangle, and the northeast end is separated from the Apennine Peninsula by the Strait of Messina, which is 3 kilometers wide; With a hilly coastline of 1,484 km, it is the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea with a population of about 5 million people.

There are plains along the coast, which are prone to earthquakes, because the island has one of the largest and most active volcanoes in Europe, Mount Etna, which is more than 3,300 meters high.

In addition, agriculture in Sicily is dominated by crops such as wheat, vegetables, grapes, and cotton, and subtropical fruits such as citrus and lemons are grown and exported.

In addition to agriculture, the fishing industry on the west coast of the island is also very developed, where sardines and tuna are famously produced.

And in the fifties of the twentieth century, oil and gas were also discovered here; This led to the development of regional industries, as well as mineral deposits such as sulphur and salt works.

In its vicinity, there are many small islands and archipelagos scattered, among which the more famous are the Egadi Islands; The Lipari Islands, the Pelage Islands and the Pantelleria Islands.

"How can I be able to consume a large number of Anglo-American Allied forces here?"

Staring at this small island where the mafia originated in later generations, Chen Yanlong frowned deeply and muttered to himself.

"Hey! Forget it, it seems that it is better to go to the field and observe it then! Now I just look at the map, I don't know what the terrain and landforms are like! ”

Chen Yanlong finally stretched and said.

"The most important thing right now should be to find a way to create a few new weapons production departments (in fact, exchange weapons storage sites) that can be exchanged directly for weapons such as assault rifles, Me262 jet fighters, and T-54 medium tanks, X2 rockets, and the Navy's carrier battle group. Otherwise, I will casually exchange weapons and equipment anywhere, which may arouse the curiosity of people who are interested and investigate! ”

At the same time, he also thought to himself in his heart.

"Ahh By the way, I even forgot that now I can also exchange for the TA152 fighter, a high-altitude and high-speed piston fighter developed by the Fw-190 at the end of World War II; Along with the P-51 and Spitfire, it is hailed as the ultimate piston fighter. And its handling performance is very good, making the Ta-152 ace Joseph? Sergeant Major Kiel commented on it, that is, using it in air combat, it can definitely eclipse all the British and American Allied fighters, because of its extremely small turning radius and surprising climb performance, it is the most dazzling of the active fighters of World War II, and no opponent can match it. ”

Chen Yanlong was alone in the new headquarters, and when he was secretly talking, he suddenly remembered with a stirring spirit.

"Hey! Good! Later, I will ask Moder to set up a secret weapons and equipment storage location for me, and let me secretly exchange a hundred TA152 fighters, let them fight an air battle with the Soviet army here in Orel, and see if their performance is really so powerful! ”

Immediately, Chen Yanlong immediately made a happy and decisive decision.

In fact, the reason why he wanted to make up his mind to produce this fighter was because he was in a World War II novel on the Internet before the crossing; I saw a comment written by a book friend named Weiye, which once said: "At the end of World War II, Ta-152 saved many pilots of the JG301 Wing in fierce air battles; And in the most difficult time of the entire wing, we survived only thanks to the unsurpassed climbing and turning performance of the Ta-152. "It would be very reassuring to have a Ta-152 with you at all times." The Ta-152 was my life insurance in the last days of the war. ”

While the top ones are full of confidence in the performance of the Ta-152, they also have some regrets. Sergeant Major Heinz Gasso considered the Ta-152 "too good to be true, surpassing the P-51 in all directions." And the most common thing the JG301 veterans say to each other is, "Why didn't we have this kind of aircraft sooner?" He even sadly recalled the Battle of Britain: "If there had been such an aircraft for a long time, what could those cunning 'Spitfires' be worth? ”

Chen Yanlong was also very interested in this comment, so he wanted to try the combat capabilities of these fighters now, whether they were as powerful as rumored.
