Chapter 594: Hints of arrogance
Although he was so downcast that he became a vagabond, Dlobinsky still had a pair of sharp eyes like a pilot, and when he heard the sound of an air raid siren, he definitely did not go to the bomb shelter, but looked up at the sky.
So soon, German fighters dared to attack London? I don't know what the cross-painted fighter plane flying overhead is? Is it BF109, or is it F190?
As he thought, he looked at the sky, but saw something terrible in the sky, which was rapidly falling.
Rockets, that's the rockets of the Germans!
Although Dlobinsky was a tramp, he was a rather literate tramp, and when he was in the army, he liked to study something, and he had a keen premonition that weapons with liquid engines would dominate future wars.
Now, that big thing, is rapidly landing, it is a rocket launched by the Germans, and the target, it is London!
There were crowds of people all around, coming out of the various buildings, trying to make their way to the bomb shelter, for many citizens, for the first time, and there were even frightened shouts.
In Dlobinsky's eyes, there was only despair, this kind of mass killing weapon could not be defended against at all, he had calculated that no fighter could intercept rockets.
It's not a level at all, and the other party's speed is too fast.
A few seconds after the air defense siren sounded, the rocket had completely fallen! It crossed Dlobinsky's field of vision almost as soon as it plunged into the nearby Thames.
It's so fortunate that this rocket didn't cause any casualties to civilians!
While he was thinking about it, he heard a violent explosion, and there were more than one rocket coming!
The second rocket hit the bell tower just now! In the huge explosion, the entire bell tower disappeared, countless fragments of buildings were splashed in all directions, and the nearby densely populated streets, when people were retreating towards the bomb shelters, they heard a terrible explosion, and then, countless broken bricks fell from the sky!
A woman clutched her head, blood gushing from it, and she let out a shrieked cry of terrified incomparability.
There was also a man, who was hit in the leg by a large piece of debris and his whole body could not move, and there he was screaming for help.
The people next to him didn't dare to approach because they were afraid.
Save!
For some reason, Dlobinsky suddenly remembered that his country, which had disappeared under the indiscriminate bombardment of the Germans, and countless people had been displaced, and he could no longer hesitate to think of this.
He ran over quickly, leaning on his own hands to tear apart the fragments of the building, and by this time, the man's breathing was getting weaker and weaker.
Fire trucks, ambulances, soon dispatched, and there were more and more rescuers on the scene.
Dlobinsky finished what he had to do and wanted to leave, but he heard a voice in his ear: "Excuse me, is it Second Lieutenant Drobinsky?" ”
He turned his head to see a tall Englishman with a serious expression on his face.
Few people call him a second lieutenant anymore, and at the same time, he knows what that title means.
"Yes." He said.
"I am a member of the Royal Air Force and would like to invite you to join us in the Royal Air Force." The other party said.
Join the RAF!
With the beginning of the war, the British were finally in a hurry, the fighters were gone, they could be reproduced, however, the pilots would not be trained in a short time.
In this case, they finally thought of pilots from other countries, and it would be quite a considerable force to organize these people!
"I'm willing to join." Dlobinski said firmly, if nothing else, just to avenge Poland!
Prime Minister's Office.
The Prime Minister's Office, also known as 10 Downing Street. Located in Westminster, London, London, Downing Street, next to Whitehall in Westminster Borough, is a Georgian style building.
It was built in 1680, and in 1733, the British king set up No. 10 as the Prime Minister's official residence, No. 11 as the Chancellor's official residence, and No. 12 as the Chancellor's office
At this time, at 10 Downing Street, the top brass who decided the fate of Britain were frowning at this time.
"The opinion of the navy is that warships can be dispatched, but the consequences may be more serious, not only will they not be able to rescue the troops, but even the navy may catch up, and all efforts will be in vain without gaining air supremacy." This was stated by Chief of Staff Archibald.
The Navy has already applied to dispatch without air supremacy, but now, this approach will not be favored.
Even Churchill knew that several battles had woken up the British, and they knew how far apart they were from the Germans.
"Another option is to wait until the evening, and the Navy will risk trying again." said the commander of the Navy.
Then there was a dead silence in the room, and Churchill had not spoken, and his cigar had reached its head, and he did not even know it.
Wait until evening? Germans, will they give themselves this chance? Perhaps, in the evening, the expeditionary force will surrender!
"Prime Minister, urgent military situation." At this moment, General Dowding, who had just gone out to answer the phone, walked in: "The Germans struck at our air base, and our fighters suffered heavy losses. ”
Germans, strike at the air base? Only then did Churchill react that the Germans had already done something to their own homeland?
"How many fighters did the Germans come?" He asked.
"It's not fighters, it's the Germans, it's new weapons." Dowding's face was ugly, and before he could explain, a sharp air raid siren sounded over London.
The people present were in a panic, could it be that the Germans came up with a large group of planes? What about your own fighters? Why not to move?
No one is not afraid of death, and if the Germans start attacking London, it means that everyone can die from the German bombing.
"If you want to go into a bomb shelter, go for it." Churchill said that he did not get out of the bomb shelter, but stood in front of the window and witnessed a German missile that hit the bell tower in the distance.
At this point, there was no need for Dowding to explain, and Churchill knew what the Germans' new weapons were. He also knows that in the future, Britain will probably be under the threat of such weapons every day!
This is a provocation by the Germans, a provocation against the British Empire! Dare to attack your own capital directly!
At the same time, it is also an arrogant hint from the Germans that their own expeditionary force may not be able to be saved.
Churchill's heart was lonely for a while, but then, on his face, it was once again identified that even if the expeditionary force was lost, Britain would definitely not lose!
