British Egyptian Air Base.

When a famous ground crew member was looking forward to the previous expedition, what about the large fleet of dozens of aircraft?

Arthur Longmore, commander-in-chief of the British Royal Air Force in the Middle East, was standing on the runway, looking at the sky in the distance, and his mood was very dull.

Originally, Longmore had come here to cheer up the victorious returning pilots, hoping to use his presence to give them more energy to devote themselves to the next attack, which would require four or five sorties in a row to destroy the German oil base in Libya.

But now, he didn't see anything, the scheduled time had long passed, and there was still no one to be seen.

"Our radio system has been subjected to strong electromagnetic interference, and we are not able to get in touch with the bomber force for the time being." On the side, the head of the base said to Longmore.

Longmore's heart became even more uneasy, in the internal news, he knew that when the Scapa Bay base was attacked, it was also subjected to strong electromagnetic interference, and the other party's old trick was repeated, which showed that the other party had been prepared.

Will the group of planes that took off in a hurry this time complete the mission?

When Longmore thought of this, the more he felt that something was wrong: "Take off the fighter immediately and go to meet it." ”

Now, the fighters of the British Royal Air Force in Egypt will not be able to take off from their base here and back again in Libya, and if they take off now, I am afraid it will be a one-way flight.

The establishment of a flight base in western Egypt must be considered immediately, but for now, even if it is the last forced landing, a few planes must be taken off and visited.

Just after he gave the order, a sharp-eyed ground crew shouted loudly: "It's back, our plane is back!" ”

In the distance, as far as the eye can see, a bomber is swaying back, and when it gets closer, you can see clearly that it is a Blenheim twin-engine bomber!

At this time, the plane, flying up and down, didn't look like usual training at all, so embarrassed, as if there was some fierce monster chasing after it.

"Stupid, put down the landing gear!" Longmore shouted loudly: "Hurry up and contact the pilot!" ”

The pilot on this plane, I don't know how panicked, after seeing the runway, came down directly, and was about to make contact with the runway, and the landing gear had not been put down!

In the radio, it was immediately called, but unfortunately, it was useless, in the eyes of everyone, the belly of the bomber, touched the ground, raising countless dust, the friction between the belly of the aluminum alloy and the ground, emitting sparks, mixed with the sound of metal being torn.

At this time, the pilot discovered the mistake, but unfortunately, he could not pull it up.

The bomber was on the runway, marking hundreds of meters, and a fire truck, already flashing its siren, drove up, but fortunately, the plane did not explode!

The pilot's whole body was soaked, he pushed open the hatch, and walked down with the support of the ground crew.

"What's going on?" Longmore asked, at this time, he had already seen that the plane had no bullet marks, and it actually landed in such a mess, not knowing what happened?

The pilot's eyes were hollow, and he remembered his experience of escaping death, the terrible plane, chasing after him, he thought that he was in the last seconds of his life, but the other party did not fire.

The other party arrogantly flew past his plane, and the guy in the bubble cockpit raised his middle finger, and then flew away with incredible speed.

After walking around the ghost gate, I almost saw God. When he flew back, the pilot only felt that his legs were trembling, and his arms couldn't control the joystick.

Now, when he saw the commander of the Air Force, he subconsciously wanted to salute, but he couldn't even raise his arms.

"Tell me, what's going on? What about other aircraft? Longmore asked, grabbing his shoulders hard and shaking.

Others? In the pilot's eyes, that terrible scene appeared again, and he couldn't help but shake his head: "I don't know, I only saw the squadron leader and other planes, all of which were shot down, and our bombers kept falling down, and I almost died there, I don't know if other planes have come back." ”

In fact, some of them flew back, but these pilots were all frightened, and after scattering, some flew in the wrong direction and landed in the desert, and even one ran to the sea and finally made a forced landing, and two of them were on the difficult trek and finally returned.

Shot down? Longmore couldn't believe his ears: "Libya, there is no air force, is it Italian planes, or Germans?" ”

Whose? On the plane, there was no insignia, he didn't recognize it at all, he only knew that it was a terrible plane, it was simply the death of the bomber!

"I don't know, I only saw an enemy fighter, that plane, it's terrible."

"What about the other squadrons?" The base commander on the side asked, what about the more than 40 "fighter" bombers of the 12th and 218th bomber squadrons? Wouldn't they have been intercepted too? If the opponent only has one fighter, it is impossible to destroy so many bombers on the other side, right?

The pilot continued to shake his head, the rest of the squadron? He saw those small bombers, got into the smoke, and never came out, now think about it, there is definitely something wrong with such a large area of smoke!

I didn't know what to ask, I just shook my head, Longmore was quite anxious, and he was almost about to curse, but at this moment, an adjutant hurriedly ran over: "General, please return to the headquarters immediately, General Wavell has something important." ”

Back to the command? What's important? Longmore knew that it must have something to do with the bombing failure, he glanced at the pilot and said, "Go, you crew, come with me to the headquarters." ”

No matter how scared this unlucky guy is, he has to take it away, and he will write this mission report.

When Longmore returned to the headquarters, he ushered in Wavell's accountability: "Longmore, what did our bombers do?" Didn't you say that only oil fields were bombed? How did you blow up the oasis? This is a big problem! ”

What do our bombers do? I didn't do much, our bombers were almost by others!

Before Longmore could answer, he heard Wavell continue: "The vice president of Rockefeller Petroleum was killed by the bomb we dropped!" ”

Rockefeller, vice president? Hearing this, Longmore was stunned, how is this possible? But, if it's true, it's a big hassle!

Britain needs to cooperate with the United States, even if the British high-level and the American high-level relations are good, this will be a big trouble, after all, it is not the American high-level and the American president who really dominate the United States, but those monopoly capitalists in the United States!

It's good that you have blown up a capitalist!
