Chapter 61: The generator is scheduled to be turned on

It is important for us to realize that without victory there would be no British Empire, that without victory there would be nothing that the British Empire had emblem, and that without victory there would be no centuries of strong demands and impulses that humanity should move towards its own ends.

I took on my task with high spirits and confidence. I am convinced that by uniting our cause, our cause will not be thwarted.

At this critical juncture, I feel that I have the right to ask for support from all sides. I was going to say, "Come on, let's work together and move forward side by side!" ”

Suddenly, there was a loud noise on the radio, followed by a conversation:

"Quick, broadcast this order at once, this is an order given by Prime Minister Churchill to all the British people, ...... Hurry up ......"

It seems that there is an emergency. There was no time on the radio station to switch the announcer's conversation, so Nelson quickly stood up and walked over to the radio, listening carefully for the urgent order that was about to be broadcast:

"I'm Prime Minister Winston Churchill, and now we're in big trouble, the damned Germans have surrounded the British Expeditionary Force in Dunkirk, our army is in danger now, and I've ordered the Navy to do its best to retreat.

There are about hundreds of thousands of people who need to retreat, but the navy simply does not have so many ships, in order to save more British soldiers, I ask the British who have ships to drive your ships to Dunkirk to help transport the British expeditionary force......"

With a "bump", the coffee cup in Nelson's hand fell to the ground and shattered, Nelson was stunned by Churchill's words, is the British Expeditionary Force about to end? Is his son still alive? Nelson's mind was a mess.

The sound of weeping and footsteps coming in from the window on the street, and the anxious voice also made Nelson hear it clearly:

"Quick, get me to the dock, I have a boat ......"

"That's right...... Someone with a boat hurry to the pier......"

Only then did Nelson react, he didn't even turn off the radio, and rushed out of the room, and many people on the street were running, and these people were almost running in the direction of the docks. Dover was originally a port city, only thirty-four kilometres from Dunkirk, and the closest way to Dunkirk is from here.

Nelson also began to run with the flow of people, he also parked a family yacht at the dock, Nelson was not very good, only five minutes of running before he was out of breath, suddenly Nelson behind the boat came a bicycle bell:

"Mr. Nelson, I'll let you go!"

Nelson looked back and it was Raven, the neighbor's boy, who was riding a half-used bicycle. Nelson, who used to go out on the school bus, did not hesitate to sit on the bicycle shelf.

"Don't you kid don't have a boat? So what are you doing at the docks? ”

"Huh...... I don't see anyone who needs help, and I have a part to do to save the British Expeditionary Force. ”

Nelson nodded silently, as long as Britain has these young men, Britain can't die:

"Boy, give me a hand! I need a deputy on my yacht and I'll pay you ten pounds a day. ”

"Mr. Nelson, how can I ask for your money! It's all to save the British Expeditionary Force, and I can't ask for this money. ”

“…… Really nice lad......"

The whole dock was busy, but it wasn't chaotic, and the first person to arrive would leave first, and everyone's goal was Dunkirk anyway. Nelson soon took Raven aboard his yacht, and after a slight check on the condition of the yacht, the two immediately started the yacht to keep up with the endless fleet.

The sun reflected the sea red, as if the sea was covered with a red veil, and the sea shimmered with a string of colorful circles.

Standing on the bow of the boat, Nelson admired the infinite scenery of the sea, and he suddenly felt that people were so small, and the world was as boundless and unfathomable as the sea.

The sight of the seagulls in the sky spreading their wings and flying on the surface of the sea is intriguing, and the perseverance and perseverance of the seagulls in the sky are intriguing, and he is convinced in his heart that he can save his son.

……

At eight o'clock in the evening of the 17th, the moon climbed up the treetops and gave out a bright light, gilding the earth with a layer of silver. At night, it seems quiet. In the bright moonlight, there are several rolling hills, some like a few sharp swords straight into the sky, in the mountains, there is a cuckoo call, crisp and pleasant, beautiful and beautiful!

Beneath a ridge, two German soldiers were whispering:

"Captain, what time is it?"

"It's 7:45, and the attack will start in fifteen minutes."

"Then I'm peeing......"

"Hurry up, kid, I'll wait for you in the tank."

Captain Claes bent down and slowly walked to the No. 1614 tank parked in the woods, and the rest of the brothers in the crew saw that the commander had returned, and hurriedly reminded in a whisper:

"Commander, the company commander has given the order, let all the crews prepare for the attack."

"Aren't you going to shell for thirty minutes?"

"The order has been changed, it says that the shells are to be used in the port of Dunkirk, and now it is only shelled for ten minutes."

"Ten minutes of shelling? The enemy on the opposite side did not have time to build strong fortifications, and I watched the shelling for five minutes, so as not to waste shells. ”

The Anglo-French forces had only begun to shrink this morning, and it was impossible to build a very strong defensive line, but one thing was that the Anglo-French forces were already very concentrated at this time. They formed a large defensive ring around the Dunkirk area, although this large defensive ring is not strong, but it is definitely enough in terms of troops, there is no shortage of weapons and ammunition, and there should be a lot of artillery, and what the British and French forces are lacking now should be tanks and aircraft.

The Anglo-French army originally had a lot of tanks, the total number was more than that of Germany, and the performance was similar, the total number of No. 4 tanks in Germany was only more than 400, and the Anglo-French army lost more than 1,000 tanks within a few days of the start of the war.

It was mainly caused by their use of tanks, which they used as a support weapon for infantry attacks, a tactic that was almost at the level of World War I, and under the German blitzkrieg, it was definitely a fate.

As for the aircraft, there is really a difference in performance, the German BF109 is indeed better than the British and French aircraft, the British Spitfire is slightly better than the BF109, but the British only have two squadrons of friends, this number of Spitfires, is not enough to change the tide of the war, Britain defended the security of the homeland, and now does not dare to send Spitfires to France, the Spitfires of those two squadrons are used to protect London.

Claes entered the tank, he stretched half of his body outside the tank's watchtower, and as soon as eight o'clock arrived, Claes saw a sudden flash of light behind him, which was the fire produced when the cannon was fired. Immediately after that, countless orange-red cannonballs appeared in the sky, and these cannonballs dragged the orange-red time past Claes's head, making a "whirring" sound like the waves of the sea.
