Even if they are self-deceptive, they want to have a little peace. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoIn this war-torn era, they can only rely on such ideas and persist in living.

German bombers really did not visit London again on this day, as if they had abandoned the city, which had almost disappeared from the map.

Truth be told, to the civilians of London, there really aren't any high-value targets worth destroying here.

The factory area is almost in ruins, and the valuable machine tools and equipment that have accumulated over time have now been buried under the rubble.

The machine tools that were rescued with great difficulty were transferred to the safer north, and these equipment are still congested on the road, and it will take many days to form production.

At night, there are significantly more people who come out to watch the sunset, and during the day they are afraid of bombing, and it is much safer at this time.

Of course, the German night bombardment was just as desperate, but the intensity of the night bombing was not comparable to the well-organized daytime bombing.

"Mrs. York...... You look good today. The middle-aged Englishman who had been filling the bomb crater just now took off his top hat and spoke to an old woman he saw.

The old woman was married to a small nobleman, who later died, leaving her with a lot of property.

Before the war, the old lady had a lot of properties in London, and the middle-aged man who greeted her was also one of her tenants.

It's a pity that most of her property is now in ruins, but the middle-aged man, who still owes the old lady's rent, maintains a polite attitude.

After all, this old lady is very particular when she rents a house, and often waives some fees and rents, which is very praised by the surrounding neighbors.

Everyone maintained due respect for the old man, and the old man did not have any shelf, smiled at the middle-aged man, and stood on the edge of the crater that had been filled in with his bag.

"The weather is really nice today." The old man was in good health, with an intimate smile on his face, and he picked up a topic casually.

"Yes, ma'am...... What is rare is that such a good weather, the Germans have not come to spoil the fun. The middle-aged man replied politely.

It stands to reason that on a clear day, the Luftwaffe would have dispatched a large number of bombers to drop hundreds or thousands of tons of aerial bombs over London.

It was a sea of fire, so everyone is now glad that the Luftwaffe didn't come here.

At least, it's a good day for this day. The people on the streets looked at the sky and rejoiced that they had survived another day.

No one knows why the Germans did not come today, and no one knows whether the Germans will come tomorrow.

But at least, their lives today are under a sky without war, which is very gratifying.

"It seems that what the newspapers say that we have defeated the Germans is true!" Looking at the sunset above the sky, which was about to set, the old woman said with emotion.

She had lived through the First World War, when she had already lost her husband, and she had heard of the German airships bombing Britain, but she never imagined that her hometown would be in such ruins.

At that time, like many young people, she was convinced that Britain could win the final victory – and indeed they did, defeating the mighty German Empire.

Britain brought a rising Germany to the ground and turned Germany's mighty High Seas Fleet into its own trophies.

The proud Britain is still the empire on which the sun never sets, and it is still the most powerful country in the world in name!

Now, the war has broken out again, and the flames of war have also burned to their hometowns. Britain could certainly win the war once again and remain the victorious power.

Patrol cars whizzed past the streets, and in the distance stood vigilant British Army troops with their iconic saucer-shaped steel helmets on their heads, smoking cigarettes and watching the crowd shuttling through.

In this corner of the war, people enjoyed a moment of tranquility, and everyone prayed that tomorrow the terrible German bombers would not appear.

In fact, the prayers were more radical – they hoped that those terrible German bombers would never appear......

Farther afield, people are searching for valuables in collapsed buildings, gathering up what is still usable so that they can be taken to bomb shelters for further use.

The current Britain, although it has not yet reached the point where everything is scarce, has begun to make ordinary people feel overstretched.

Some of the originally ordinary daily necessities, such as iron basins and tableware, have now dropped significantly.

In addition, the supply of electricity has also been limited due to the bombing, and many times the underground bomb shelters are in a state of power outage, and only the ventilation system is allowed......

Even more nervous is the fact that beef has begun to be available in limited quantities and bread has begun to be limited in quantities, which has caused panic among citizens.

The German bombing destroyed the water supply system and paralyzed the power supply system, which caused problems for local production and life.

And what is even more depressing is that in the short term, none of this damage can be repaired, and people can only endure it until the end of the war.

……

"Mr. Prime Minister...... While there is nothing wrong with saying this, highlighting the involvement of the Germans would also allow us to disguise the retreat back to Matroux as an ordinary battle. One of the aides spoke to Churchill.

Although the citizens of London were in a very good mood today because the Germans did not know why the bombing had stopped, the top brass knew that the situation on the battlefield in North Africa was not optimistic.

Although the enemy retreated back to Byrddy, it was possible to counterattack back to Matru at any time, and the British strengthened Matru with only one Australian 6th Infantry Division.

Now that the Balkans are clouded and new war may break out at any time, it is very difficult for Britain to appease its ally Greece and strengthen its forces in North Africa at the same time.

The first question is how to continue to strengthen the defense of North Africa while increasing the number of troops in Greece.

Churchill meant to continue the transfer of troops from India, but this was definitely a distant decision - to rely on the support of Indian troops would have to wait at least 20 days or more.

Maybe the reinforcements had just reached the Suez Canal, and Matroux had already been lost there. How will we deal with the defeat of losing Matru when the time comes?

"The best way to hide defeat is to find a way to win!" Churchill looked at his staff and replied.

He didn't want to use this clumsy method to get by, but the current situation really didn't allow him to be honest with his own people.

Now, he is thanking the German commander named Rommel in his heart for not taking advantage of the situation and really capturing Matroux and completely embarrassing him, the British prime minister.

Of course, he was not stupid, he knew that the main reason why Rommel did not attack Matroux may be that his own strength was not enough to attack the city.

That's why he was in a hurry, because if he waited until Rommel came back, it would be time for him to have the strength to capture Matru.

Faced with such tremendous pressure, Churchill had to continue to increase his forces in North Africa: "Draw a division of troops from India and rush to Egypt as soon as possible...... It's a long-term response! ”

Then he looked at the ugly face of the army general next to him and ordered: "Find a way to transport more A9 and A10 tanks to Africa!" We want to regain the strategic initiative! ”

"But...... Mr. Prime Minister, if we send tanks to Africa, the ability of the mainland to resist the landing will be reduced...... "The army generals felt a lot of pressure on their shoulders.

He was responsible for the absolute security of the British mainland, and it was a very difficult task to prevent a possible German landing on the long coastline.

After all, although the troops in his hands seem to be as many as a million, most of them are recruits with little combat ability.

The skeleton of these recruits was the 330,000 defeated troops retreating from Dunkirk – demoralized and lacking in heavy weapons.

These days, because of the German bombing, Britain has hardly produced heavy weapons such as tanks in large quantities.

In addition to anti-aircraft guns and some artillery deployed on the mainland, the British army only had small arms such as rifles.

Suffice it to say that it was the English Channel and the battleships of the British Royal Navy that prevented the Germans from landing, and not the poor British ground forces.

In such a situation, it would be a huge adventure to send people from the already insufficient army to distant Africa.

"My troops have to defend kilometers of coastline...... Sir! If the Germans landed, the consequences would be unimaginable! The army general said anxiously.

"You draw troops...... I will order the navy to strengthen the forces of the homeland and relieve the pressure on your defenses! "After all, Churchill was the Minister of the Navy, so he still knew more about the Navy.

It is said that the navy should strengthen its own forces, but in fact, the internal statement is still very vague. Because the British Navy is deployed globally, it is nothing more than an attitude to strengthen where to strengthen.

For example, if the patrol circle of the H fleet is expanded to the north, it can be regarded as strengthening the naval forces of the homeland - you see, how convenient it is?

The army officers also knew what the Prime Minister was thinking, but he couldn't think of any good way, who let Admiral Wavell and Lieutenant General O'Connor, who had recently caused trouble, both be from the Army?

"Alright! Sir...... If you insist, I agree to send a local division to reinforce North Africa. The army general finally replied helplessly.
