After this bombing by the Germans, the morale of the British side was quite low, and it can be said that the pessimistic mood had begun to spread.

Needless to say, just look at the expressions of the people in the conference room, after learning about the advantages of the Germans' night bombing, the British high-ranking commanders present began to be deflated.

Obviously, if this situation continues, the confidence that Churchill has easily mustered will be lost, and once the belief in victory is lost, then there will be traitors and capitulationists, which is the least likely thing for Churchill to see.

So, Churchill had to find a way to tell the British that Germany was not omnipotent, that war was a double-edged sword, and that while stabbing the enemy, he would also be wounded himself!

What could be more morale-boosting than bombing the other side's capital?

For example, after the bombing of Pearl Harbor by the island country, a pessimistic atmosphere permeated the entire United States, believing that the military strength of the island country was too strong, and it actually directly killed the Pacific base of the United States.

However, Roosevelt immediately came up with a solution, and he insisted on using the impossible to realize the possibility, using aircraft carriers to carry bombers and bombing island countries, which immediately raised morale and played the most prominent role in the United States winning the entire World War II.

Churchill wanted to do the same.

However, his words immediately aroused Dowding's dissatisfaction: "No, we don't have the strength to do that at all. ”

If the Germans can succeed, Britain may not succeed, not to mention that the night bombing of Berlin is simply a battle with no return for the British bomber forces.

Throughout World War II, the mortality rate of the bomber unit was quite high, and the death rate of the British bomber unit was as high as 50 percent! You must know that the submarine force, which has always considered itself to have the highest casualty rate, had a casualty rate of only 30 percent in World War II.

Germany's air defense forces are quite complete, they have advanced radar equipment, and the prospects for this bombing are not optimistic.

Dowding was adamantly opposed.

Hearing Dowding's words, Churchill just coaxed: "General Dowding, it's enough to take care of your own affairs, think more about how to organize air defense forces and protect our airspace." ”

It's useless to say more, and Dowding isn't in charge of this anyway.

In 1936, the British Royal Air Force formed several special commands: the Fighter Aviation Command, the Bomber Aviation Command, the Coastal Aviation Command, etc. In the same year, Dowding became commander of the fighter aviation.

That is to say, the air defense of the homeland is under the control of Douding, however, the bombing mission has nothing to do with him.

Churchill's words made Dowding's face blue and red for a while, but he finally held back and said nothing.

The relationship between Dow Ding and Churchill is not good, after all, Churchill's indiscriminate command makes Dow Ding quite disgusted, but, in this eventful season, Dow Ding really does not have the courage to leave, as a senior general, he needs to be responsible.

And now, the commander of Britain's bomber force is Lieutenant General Arthur Harris, a fat, gray-haired veteran who became a member of the Royal Air Force's predecessor, the Royal Flying Corps, in World War I.

Now he is being watched by everyone, and when Churchill finished scolding Dowding, he turned his eyes to him.

Lieutenant General Harris knew that it would not be easy to bomb Berlin, because his own bombers had limited performance, and it was impossible to go around in a big circle, and they could only fly over the airspace of France, the Netherlands, and other countries by sea, and the interception of German troops along the way would be quite terrifying, and it would indeed be a thrilling task.

But what could be better than a bomber sortie to boost the morale of the British people?

In his mind, bombers were the best weapon to attack the enemy, break morale, quickly end the war, and avoid massacres.

And now, it's that time!

"We, the Royal Bomber Unit, will successfully complete the mission." The mouth under a pinch of mustache moved, and his speech was sonorous and powerful, encouraging everyone present: "We know that this will be a difficult battle, but we cannot refuse, after all, this is our mission, let the Germans know the fate of bombing us!" ”

There is no choice, it has to be so!

"Yes, and quickly, just tonight, we're going to let the Germans know how good we are!" Churchill said.

Tonight! There was only one day to prepare, which exacerbated the uncertainty factor, and Dowding frowned, not saying a word, the sadness of the layman leading the insider.

The Germans have been planning for months for this air raid! And the supporting equipment, even after a few years, to say further, even when Ciric took power, Reinhardt sent a large number of agents to Britain, which was to pave the way for last night's bombing.

Otherwise, how is the guidance on the ground accomplished, even if there is radio guidance equipment, the ultimate goal is still guided by the ground, whether it is a reverse street lamp, or a bonfire on the ground, etc., it is all done by the agents who are ambushed there in advance.

Britain, on the other hand, was not prepared for anything, and even so, they still had to complete this task.

Daytime bombing, that is impossible, so they can only bomb at night in the same way, and their advantage is that Berlin never sleeps.

If the air defense control is carried out in Berlin because of the fear of British air raids, the whole city is pitch black, it is absolutely very shameless, and the current Germans are definitely the proudest, they will not make the night in Berlin dark.

So, there is still hope that they will succeed!

"I will personally practice it for the soldiers who go out on the expedition." Churchill said: "I will be at the airport, waiting for them to triumph!" ”

This air raid on Berlin was listed as the highest level mission by Churchill, and Churchill wanted to go in person, which was inspiring!

"Report, Update." At this moment, Brigadier Halke, who had just answered a phone call, had excitement on his face: "We have confirmed that the German Führer Shirek is currently in Paris!" ”

In Paris! Hearing this news, Churchillton was also excited, if this is the case, it would be better, compared to the bombing of Berlin, the bombing of Paris is less dangerous, if you can blow up Ciric, it will be even better!

The Germans bombed their own Whitehall Street, and they bombed Ciric's official residence, which is called a tooth for a tooth, and the civilians of Berlin who were bombed are even better!

"Looks like we need to renegotiate our plans." Churchill lit his cigar and he suddenly had a feeling of relaxation, God, had not given up on Great Britain yet!
