What was transported?

Lockhit, took a glass of whiskey, drank it, looked at the eyes around him, and finally, he couldn't control his mouth.

"We're transporting, of course, valuables, and I'll tell you, it's a secret, it's our arms to England!"

Arms destined for the UK? Suddenly, Field understood: "Your captain is really bold! Don't you all know? Now, except for Britain's own transport company, others do not dare to take British business at all, and the Germans have hundreds of submarines, waiting in the Atlantic! As long as the goods are transported from the UK, nine times out of ten they will be unlucky! ”

Field was well aware that just last month, in the western waters of England, a merchant ship had sunk, and later it was analyzed that this merchant ship was a British ship transporting munitions, which was destroyed by the Germans.

"The Germans are so hateful that they even attack civilian ships!"

"That's right, the Germans actually dared to attack our American ships!" In an instant, the bar was lively.

The Germans hit the merchant ships flying the British flag, then forget it, after all, Britain and Germany are at war, but now, the United States is still neutral, in this case, even if it is their own ships, transporting arms to the British, the Germans, should not be sunk!

This is against international practice, and it seriously hurts the feelings of the American people, who in their eyes, their country is powerful, and now it has been treated so barbarically!

"Don't talk nonsense, I heard that the German agents are very powerful, if the news leaks out, maybe our people here will be wiped out!" Just then, another voice appeared.

"Cruise, you coward! This is our land in America, and who would dare to spread wild land on our land? Field shouted.

"yes, and kill all of us here? How are Americans going to kill their mouths? How dare they use bombers to bomb us? "I drank too much, and York didn't hold back his mouth.

Lockhitt didn't speak, he poured the second glass of whiskey into his mouth.

"Forget it, I won't tell you, I have to go back." Lockhit, apparently preoccupied, as if he was afraid of something.

So, everyone laughed.

As sailors, they are all quite strong men, and they are also very courageous, and now Lockhit, like a coward, was originally very sympathetic to Lockhit's plight, but now, they all look down on him.

What are you afraid of! In this bar, almost all of them are sailors, at least five or six, all of whom have the experience of shipwreck, don't they continue to be sailors?

Lockhid walked out slowly, and at this moment, there was a roar in the sky.

Raising his head, Lockhit's eyes were actually in a trance, he looked at the plane in the sky, four engines, and flew from the east, in this era, there are not many passenger planes with four engines, and the Atlantic One passenger plane, which is the best among them, covers the main route from the American continent to Europe.

Douglas fought to catch up, and on the basis of Douglas's DC-3, the DC-4 was modified, and it also became a huge monster with four engines, trying to compete with the Atlantic One.

It's a pity that this airliner still has a lot of problems to solve, its single engine, only 1450 horsepower, to the Atlantic airliner 1800 horsepower, the gap is too big, at the same time, its cockpit, is not yet sealed!

Therefore, other airlines can only watch as Hughes and Germany's Junkers occupy this vast market together, and only the Atlantic 1 passenger plane is competent on the route from the Americas to Europe.

And in New York, a city on the East Coast of the United States, there are flights every day, so it is not unusual to look up and see a passenger plane now.

However, Lockhit was still looking up at the sky, and he always sensed that something was wrong.

The paint paint of that airliner is not that of the Theseus company? In particular, on the side of the fuselage, how is there still a sign of a cross, or black?

Wait, isn't that a bomber for the Germans?

Thinking of this, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, the two glasses of wine he had just drunk woke up, and at the same time, he saw an even more terrifying scene, under the bomber, something appeared, and the other party threw a bomb!

Damn it!

"Run, German bombers, drop bombs!" Lockhit shouted loudly, and at this moment, his feet were moving, and he wanted to get out of here.

Since the end of the Civil War, the United States has always been quite safe, even the last world war, it was only fought overseas, for Americans, their geographical location, determines their psychological advantage.

And now, there are actually German bombers, coming to bomb! This is difficult for many people to accept, or rather, defenseless.

The people in the bar, instead of listening to Lockhit, shouted loudly: "Lockhit, you drank too much?" ”

Then, the bomb fell, the peculiar frightening sound, finally came, at this time, all the people became anxious, they wanted to run out, but unfortunately, before they could run out, the bomb had already fallen!

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Five or six bombs, falling from the sky, fell near the bar, and the people inside the bar, surprised to find that they were still intact, when they got up from the ground and rushed outside, only to find Lockhit, lying in a pool of blood.

A bomb exploded not far from him, shrapnel cut his stomach, his blood, gurgling out, he fell to the ground, trying to push the intestines back inside, his hands, all blood.

"Lockhit, Lockhit!" Field shouted loudly, and several men found a plank and carried Lockhit, trying to take him to a nearby hospital.

At this moment, the bomber in the sky, half in a circle, dropped the bomb again, this time, its target, near the Hudson River estuary on Liberty Island in the harbor, the most famous sculpture!

The Statue of Liberty, whose full name is "Statue of Liberty National Monument", officially known as "Liberty Shines on the World", was built by France in 1876 to commemorate the centenary of the victory of the American Revolutionary War, and the bronze statue was inaugurated on October 28, 1886.

Dressed in ancient Greek clothing, Lady Liberty wears a radiant crown with seven pointed rays symbolizing the seven continents. holding the torch of freedom in his right hand and the Declaration of Independence in his left hand; Beneath are broken handcuffs, shackles and chains, symbolizing freedom from tyranny.

This sculpture is a symbol of the United States, and for many years, the United States has been praising this sculpture as a symbol of the lofty ideals of the American people fighting for democracy and freedom.

And now, that bomber, in the face of the sculpture that the American people hold in high esteem, dropped its bomb! 18310
