July 12th.
The sky was still dark with a light mist, so Zhou Zhihan gathered all the rookies who were studying in the Allied Regiment and followed him to the seaside to watch the air battle between the ace pilots of Britain and Germany at close range. This pair of rookies It helps a lot in growing up.
When several military trucks carried the rookies to the seaside of Cavour, there was just a glimmer of light in the eastern sky, and it was still some time before dawn.
After getting off the bus, the rookies discovered that they were not the first to arrive at the beach. Many good seats were already occupied by British people who arrived early.
There are people of all ages on the beach, but most of them are young people, and most of the young people are teenagers. These teenagers are very excited and gather in groups to talk about how the Royal Air Force of the British Empire beat the crap out of the Germans yesterday. , among them there was a young man gesturing with his hands about the scene of the air combat, speaking vividly, and the eyes of the friends around him were full of envy.
Obviously, the newspapers did not publish the actual battle situation last night. What people know is the 3-0 victory over England in the first aerial match.
Yesterday, many people who saw the Royal Air Force's fiasco at the beach stood aside in silence, trying not to emulate others' ambitions at this time.
But some people will still say it.
People kept looking across the strait and talking a lot. Some people who had seen the newspaper the day before but didn’t know the situation of yesterday’s battle came to the beach and heard that the Royal Air Force was completely defeated in a one-on-one air battle yesterday. They were immediately happy. Being destroyed, my heart was cast by the shadow of the military's defeat, but I immediately adjusted my mentality and came to cheer for the Royal Air Force today.
Although many people came just to watch the fun, who would admit it?
Zhou Zhihan fell asleep in the cab. He felt that the car was no longer moving and had reached its destination. He yawned, rubbed his face with his palms a few times, wrapped his flight jacket tightly, and stepped out of the car.
July mornings in the UK can also be cold.
"Oh..." Zhou Zhihan stretched out in his leather coat, took out a cigarette and lit it, "There are so many people today."
During this time, Karen particularly hated his smoking.
well!
Woman!
When we first got together, she said that his smoking posture was very nice, and the faint smell of tobacco also fascinated her. But now it's better. Just over a month has passed, and she dislikes this and that...
Seeing dozens of young air force pilots coming out of several military trucks, they immediately attracted the attention of people on the shore. They looked at the pilots wearing handsome leather flight jackets and cowhide military boots, with the corners of their wide flight trousers tucked into their boots. He was so handsome that the envy in the eyes of those young people became even stronger.
Rookies usually envy those veterans in the military camp who can fly fighter jets to the battlefield. Now they are receiving countless envious looks from others. The rookies feel very happy. They feel that they have endless energy and wish they could sit down right now. In the plane, I flew into the sky and shot down a few Messerschmitts to show off in front of my fellow villagers.
When Zhou Zhihan saw this, he quickly ran back to the car and drove with several military vehicles into a small forest on the shore to take shelter. He could also see the air battle clearly from there. He didn't want to be recognized by others and become the center of attention, stealing the attention of the rookies. Limelight.
It's not easy for the rookies either. They are all young people and none of them have a desire to be in the limelight.
On some buildings along the coast, posters and large slogans encouraging preparations for the German invasion can be seen everywhere, encouraging young people to join the army, resist foreign enemies, and defend their motherland and homeland.
The British government did not stop people from watching the aerial battles between the two countries' fighter jets on the beach. The coastline was too long and could not stop them. It just put up many slogans telling people how to avoid German bombers if they encountered them.
Now is the time to share the same hatred against the enemy. Let the Chinese people know the cruelty of war in advance so that they can at least know how to protect themselves and their families in the days to come and not cause trouble to the government.
In fact, the German bombers at this time were only targeting British troops and ships sailing on the sea. Ordinary people and houses were not their targets.
There was a faint light in the east, and the sky gradually brightened, but due to the sea water, the sea was still dark. Normally, many lights on sailing cargo ships could be seen clearly.
During the war, due to the fear of German bombers, ships now dared to sail blindly at night without turning on their lights. In order not to leave bombing marks for the Germans, all the lighthouses along the entire coastline have been demolished, which makes it even more difficult for ships to sail at night. However, Compared with being bombed by bombers, these difficulties can be ignored for merchant ships.
"boom!"
Suddenly, there was a violent explosion on the sea a few kilometers away. Huge flames shot into the sky, frightening the hearts of the people watching in the sky on the coast. When the explosion happened, many people jumped up immediately, and some people immediately fell down. On the ground.
In the firelight, people could see that a cargo ship on the sea a few kilometers away was attacked by German fighter jets. Above the red light waves, the yellow nose of an airplane flashed past and disappeared into the darkness above the sea, leaving only the A cargo ship burst into flames and slowly stopped on the sea.
"Damn, it's the German Messerschmitt. Where are our fighter jets?"
A teenager looked at the burning cargo ship on the sea, jumped up, waved his fist in the sky and shouted loudly.
Immediately, many young people touched the stones on the beach and smashed them into the air. They vented their anger and asked why the Royal Air Force did not show up.
"It's coming!" a teenager shouted, "Our fighter jet is coming, it's a hurricane!"
"Our fighter is here, it's the Hurricane."
People heard the roar of propellers coming from behind, and then looked up to see a Hurricane fighter jet flying overhead.
The teenagers jumped up and cheered: "The damn Germans just wait for death, look! Our hurricane! Our hurricane is coming, let's see how our pilots deal with you damn Germans."
Several young people followed the hurricane and rushed towards the sea. Then they stood in the water, waving their hands and cheering for the hurricane in the air.
Half a minute later, the sound of machine guns suddenly came from the air again, and then the long traces of tracer bullets streaked into the distance like lightning in the air.
After a few minutes, the sky gradually brightened, and people could vaguely see a Messerschmitt and a Hurricane fighter fighter tangled above the sea on the plane, shooting at each other.
After another two minutes, it was daylight, and the people on the coast were boiling because they saw the Hurricane fighter closely behind the Messerschmitt and firing continuously.
"Kill him!"
"Get him down!"
"Kill the Krauts, the great RAF..."
"The hurricane fighter of the great empire on which the sun never sets..."
Seeing that the Hurricane had the upper hand, the teenagers were filled with patriotic enthusiasm. They waved their fists to express their enthusiasm and encouraged the Hurricane fighter to shoot down the Messerschmitt.
Everyone knows that in an air battle, the fighter that occupies the opponent's rear hemisphere position is the dominant side.
Zhou Zhihan, who was sitting in a military vehicle in the woods on the shore, shook his head repeatedly. Although the Hurricane occupied the Messerschmitt's rear hemisphere position, the distance between the two sides was obviously far, and the German pilot was very skillful in breaking out of the maneuver. The Hurricane pilot simply Unable to grasp the shooting advance, the pilot may just want to use the trailing artillery fire to drive the Messerschmitt away from the sea. After all, fighting in front of the fellow villagers, everyone wants to get the upper hand and drive away the enemy aircraft to win.
A few minutes later, the smaller half of the sun's head emerged from the sea, and the entire sky suddenly became brighter. The sea surface was rippled with light, and the white clouds in the sky became richly colored under the red sun, like a pair of translucent watercolor paintings hanging in the sky.
It was daybreak, and many merchant ships could be seen on the sea, passing by the port of Dover.
The battle in the air was clearly visible, as the two fighter jets chased each other in the air, leaving white condensed contrails in the picturesque early morning sky.
Suddenly, the Messerschmitt climbed into the air at a large angle after performing two escape maneuvers in a row.
The Hurricane fighter immediately followed up. He already had the advantage and wanted to find an opportunity to shoot down the Meiji during the climb.
Zhou Zhihan shook his head and sighed. The experience of the British pilots was still far behind the experienced Vulture Legion pilots. The reason why the Messerschmitt gave up its rear hemisphere position was to lure the Hurricane to climb up with it.
The Messerschmitt pilots of the Condor Legion are experienced and their ability to interpret the battlefield is so strong that they know after a few rounds that their opponents are inexperienced.
In fact, the Hurricane fighter can completely use its superior plane hovering ability at this time not to follow up, but to lower its altitude toward the sea, directly breaking the dive advantage that Messerschmitt wanted to establish, because it is still three thousand meters away from the water. At a high altitude, Messerschmitt did not dare to dive and attack.
"well!"
Zhou Zhihan sighed again. He had talked about these tactics many times. Do these stubborn British guys have to suffer a big loss before they can remember them?
Seeing the Hurricane fighter jets chasing after them, people on the shore began to cheer and jump. The rookie pilots were also very excited. They discussed the current battle in groups, while several instructors looked at the sky and shook their heads.
