"Captain, the second engine is faulty, shall we return?" the pilot asked the captain on the side.
The captain turned his head, looked at the engine that was still emitting smoke from the porthole, and said, "No, continue flying."
As a four-engine bomber, this aircraft originally has this function. When long-distance endurance is required, two engines can be turned off to reduce fuel consumption. Therefore, although one engine is missing, it can still continue to perform. Mission.
This was the first large-scale bombing mission. The captain did not want to quit because one engine failed. At least now, it seems that the other three engines are still working normally.
In order to be able to continue the mission, the captain deliberately concealed the problem of the engine failure. As a result, when they flew to the scheduled assembly area, they discovered that their bomber group had completed the assembly two minutes ago and set off!
It doesn't matter, just catch up by yourself!
Therefore, the captain ordered the navigator to fly according to a predetermined route based on radio guidance, hoping to catch up with his own formation.
Unfortunately, with one engine missing, their speed was slower than the fleet ahead, so instead of catching up, they lag further behind.
After flying over the center line of the strait, nothing was found, so the captain decided to fly over and bomb himself according to the predetermined goal!
A lone bomber flying high in the sky. Their target is a factory near Greenwich. This factory mainly produces alloys, which are necessary raw materials for aircraft engines. Flash Dance Novel Network
Adjusting the route, the crew members of the bomber did not feel alone, they were fighting!
"Ahead, the goal is about to be reached." The navigator shouted.
Fly strictly according to the route, but they did not notice that the wind direction over the UK had changed at this time. They flew more than 20 kilometers forward. The front is not Greenwich, but London!
"No target was found." the navigator shouted.
According to the prior arrangement, there will be people on the ground to guide them. Simply put, it is just a flashlight sending simple three short and three long light words to the sky, but now, they have not found it.
It was pitch black below. Because the bombing started long ago, the cities in these areas have already implemented light control.
After flying around this area for two laps, the navigator was suddenly overjoyed. In front of his eyes, a flickering signal finally appeared: "Found the target, prepare to drop the bomb, fly straight, and enter the bombing route!"
At this moment, they didn't know that the flickering signal below was not the target factory at all, but the Big Ben on the Capitol, which was reporting the time on time! Although London has implemented light control, the management staff neglected and forgot that this clock will flash when it tells the time on time!
To the north of this magnificent Big Ben is Whitehall Street, where the ministries of the British government are located.
In the middle section of the west side of Baiting Avenue, there is a short and narrow horizontal street, the famous Tangning Street. This street No. 10 is a three-story gray brick building that is not well-known, built in 1680.
Yes, this is 10 Downing Street, the British Prime Minister's Office. It is the center for the British government to make major decisions, formulate policies and hold conferences that change the world.
And now, in this three-story building, Churchill has no sleep all night.
"What, even our Woolston factory was bombed?" After receiving the news, Churchill clenched his fists.
Fighting and fighting until victory is Churchill's consistent belief. He also firmly believes that he can win. But now, reality constantly pours cold water on his head.
The two Spitfire factories were completely razed to the ground. The Germans used hundreds of bombers to bomb Britain. The most frightening thing was that the night bombing was a surprise attack by the Germans. Effect.
"Within a month, we couldn't even produce a Spitfire." Chief of Staff Archibald said that this is the heaviest blow to Britain.
If Britain wants to protect its own country, it must deal with the German bombing. First, it must defeat the Luftwaffe, but now? A night bombing by the Germans, the British fighter production capacity disappeared.
Churchill's cigar had gone out, he stood up and looked at the dark night sky. God, don’t you think the suffering that Britain has endured is not severe enough?
"Boom!" At this moment, suddenly, a violent explosion occurred on the street hundreds of meters away, and the dark streets were shiny.
"Protect the Prime Minister!" The captain of the guard yelled and came up to throw Churchill down. Almost at the same time, the glass in front of Churchill was shattered.
"Boom, boom!" The explosion sounded one after another! The entire Whitehall Street has suffered terrible bombing!
The bombs dropped from a high altitude were not very accurate. They were originally aimed at the Big Ben. As a result, almost all the bombs fell to the north of Big Ben, where the British government is located!
A bomb exploded almost ten meters away from No. 10 Downing Street. In the huge explosion, the entire street was exploded into a crater ten meters deep!
Countless fragments flew, hitting the three-story building at No. 10 Downing Street, a corner of the building, unable to withstand the huge impact, collapsed!
In front of the small building, on the high flagpole, which symbolizes the flag of Great Britain, it was also in the explosion and was torn open numerous openings, but it did not fall down, and it was still flying in the wind!
In the dark night sky, there were countless fire lights across Whitehall Street.
London, burning, seat of government, burning!
Fire trucks arrived urgently, and countless people came out spontaneously to take part in the rescue!
At this time, the bombers in the sky, without knowing that they had performed a feat, almost killed British Prime Minister Churchill. At this time, they finished bombing, circled, and prepared to return, only to find that they seemed to have stabbed a hornet's nest.
Originally, the following was just an ordinary factory, even if it was protected, it was only the size of an antiaircraft artillery company, but now? There are hundreds of light beams suddenly lit up below!
These beams of light swept back and forth, cutting the sky mottled away.
"Quick, climb, climb right away!" the captain shouted loudly.
There must be a problem, is this a trap? With so many searchlights, it is only a matter of time before you are discovered, but as long as you climb high in the sky, there is no problem! You know, no matter how powerful the anti-aircraft artillery is, it is impossible to reach an effective shooting height of eight kilometers!
The three engines ran their horsepower, and they climbed up desperately. Just as they climbed to seven kilometers, they were caught by countless beams of light. Then, below, countless anti-aircraft guns fired together, seeming to be facing the sky, venting their dissatisfaction. .
Unfortunately, they are doomed to be useless.
