Standing on the seaside in France, looking at the sea of flames in Paris, Imperial Marshal Göring called his wife Amy and said: "The British capital is already in flames, London has become the target of the Luftwaffe, and we have hit the heart of the enemy with one punch."
That night, the Reich Marshal also addressed the German people over the radio and assured: "There will be more such devastating attacks on London by the Air Force in the future. I guarantee that from now on, Britain will never have the power to fly over Berlin again. .”
Although the Royal Air Force came to the rescue shortly after the Luftwaffe arrived over London, they arrived too late. The huge damage had caused about a thousand deaths and tens of thousands of injuries in the city. London docks were severely damaged. of damage, the East End was bombed, leaving many people in the city homeless.
After the Luftwaffe returned to their base, they lost a total of 52 fighter-bombers. They achieved an unprecedented victory. Many people believed that the war against Britain was coming to an end.
General Hugh Dowding was very responsible for the attack on London. He felt deeply guilty, so he ordered the next day to mobilize defense systems from other cities and rush to London. He must be in the capital within a few days. A dense network of firepower was gradually established in the sky
At night, after the German bombers withdrew from London, people in London kept asking why when the Luftwaffe attacked, only the A214 Spitfire was engaged in a desperate fight with the Luftwaffe in the sky above London.
Where was the RAF then?
Where are the British soldiers when the British people need them?
Although the Chinese failed to prevent the Luftwaffe from bombing London, he used his heroic feats to comfort people when they were bombed by Germany.
When the Germans were dropping bombs frantically, only one foreigner rushed forward without hesitation to stop them. British Air Force pilots, where are you?
Those observers and generals who said they would defend the security of British territory to the death, where were you at that time? Drinking brandy?
Still smoking a cigar?
Or smoking a cigar and drinking brandy?
Many citizens saw the A214 Spitfire running out of ammunition and being chased out by a Luftwaffe fighter jet. People were asking, wanting to know where the A214 Spitfire was now?
We need him back.
We need him.
People tried their best to find out where Spitfire A214 was now. When they learned that he flew back to the airport and landed safely, people rushed to tell each other that he was safe.
However, people heard bad news. The pregnant fiancée of the Allied ace pilot was killed in a sea of flames during a German bombing yesterday. When he found his body, his body could not be identified. Only the body was found around his neck. The ace pilot made her a pendant from a bomb casing with her name written on it.
The next day, the Luftwaffe continued its air raids on London. The bombers were not large-scale, and several bombers were intercepted by the Royal Air Force before they entered the skies over London.
On this day, Zhou Zhihan drank all day long and never left the room. The door was locked and no one was allowed in.
Everyone in the alliance feels sad for Karen. She said yesterday afternoon that she had too much pregnancy reaction and asked for a few days off to recuperate in London. Who knows...
In the next two days, the Germans continued to invade the skies over London at all costs and caused huge damage to London. Thousands of places in the city were bombed and then caught fire. Nearly 10,000 citizens died. Half of the houses were bombed. There were ruins, the whole city was devastated, and there was a pungent burnt smell.
Just when the Germans thought that Londoners were about to raise their hands and surrender, they never imagined that this strong and unyielding nation would become even more tenacious and unyielding. The German bombing behavior only increased the hatred and hatred of British civilians towards the invaders.
During this period, the British Fighter Command made great changes in its combat methods. Spitfires and Hurricanes no longer used scattered squadrons to fight. They used large fleet formations that could compete with the enemy and the Luftwaffe. In the confrontation, hundreds of Spitfire and Hurricane fighter planes shined in the sun, engaging in a desperate battle with the roaring Luftwaffe.
If the success of the first air raid on London convinced the Germans that the Royal Air Force was on the verge of exhaustion, then the powerful power displayed by these Royal Air Force fighter jets frightened them.
In the face of the brilliant achievements of the Royal Air Force, all the big words of Imperial Marshal Göring seemed very ridiculous. Behind his back, many people began to call him that slow-moving farmer who only talks big words.
The German Reichsmarschall had spent the past few days alternately ecstatic and anxious. On the one hand, he was delighted by reports of destruction in the British capital. He was fully convinced that the more people died in London, the more likely the rest of the country would be. The desire for peace only grew stronger, and on several occasions he assured his men that Operation Sea Lion would not be necessary because the Luftwaffe clearly controlled British skies without a single German soldier reaching the British coast. The British can be subdued by the air force.
But when Göring heard reports of Luftwaffe losses over Britain, he fell into a deep depression.
Once when Göring went to inspect the German Air Force in northern France, he heard a lot of complaints, which made him depressed.
The bomber force said they were not adequately protected.
The fighter force said that London was on the edge of the range limit, so they could only fight for ten or twenty minutes before flying back.
The generals of the fighter and bomber forces were worried about the increasing losses. Bombers were constantly shot down by fighters of the Royal Air Force that Luftwaffe intelligence had promoted as no longer existing. Fighters were also shot down one after another because they had no fuel. Insufficient, unable to adapt to changes in the fierce battle in the air, and some aircraft fell into the sea because they ran out of fuel.
In this regard, Goering tried his best to comfort these grumbling troops. He told the officers and soldiers to take care. If he carried out the last large-scale daytime attack, everything would be over. Everything would be fine. The Royal Air Force would be annihilated in one fell swoop, and London would suffer a heavy blow. It was so heavy that the brandy-drinking farmer had no choice but to cry for mercy.
In the past few days, the Air Force Headquarters gave Zhou Zhihan a holiday to rest and adjust. Karen's sudden death was a huge blow to him. At this time, flying a plane to fight was counterproductive.
Airport staff saw the unshaven and depressed Zhou Zhihan every day, leaving early and returning home alone every day, sometimes staying up all night. Everyone knew that he didn't believe Karen had left and was looking for Karen every day, so they gave him a car. Wherever he wants to go.
A few days later, when the German Air Force launched another large-scale air raid on London, Zhou Zhihan took to the skies to fight. After shooting down four or five enemy planes in a row, the A214 Spitfire disappeared from the sky above London.
The next day, people found the A214 Spitfire that crashed due to mechanical failure in a very remote place. The aircraft was burned to the ground by the fire, leaving only the empty shell.
Not far from the fighter jet, there was a body curled up that had been burned to the point where only the skeleton was left. It must have been that when the fighter jet crashed, the powerful impact threw the person out of the cabin.
Judging from the unit nameplate around the neck of this skeleton, he was the Allied ace with a prominent reputation that made the German Air Force fearful.
At this point, the No. 1 ace of the Allies fell on the British battlefield, and the British people told each other in tears.
