The whole British Expeditionary Force is Britain's most elite force, which is Britain's Jinhua. If this force is consumed on the European continent, Britain's future will not be optimistic.

The departure of a large number of most capable officers and soldiers who have passed the test of war and graduated from regular military academies will be a great disaster for Britain. If these troops are killed, it will be difficult to reorganize them.

This is not an ancient time when you could use a kitchen knife and tie a sharp iron bar to a bamboo pole as a weapon. Professional soldiers are very important.

As for the Navy, there is no choice now. The construction of the Navy needs time. They will have to wait until last year before they can have new warships. This is still under the condition that the other party does not interfere.

Even the most pessimistic prediction is that the key task of Britain in the next stage is to defend the English Channel well and wait for the Germans to attack.

At this time, an excellent army is the most important. It is even worth catching up with the navy in your hand!

Ramsey's will is very firm. Even if he catches up with the Navy, he will save his army!

"Then we need air supremacy." Lieutenant Colonel Jack kraustow said, "only when we seize the air control over the Strait can our naval ships be meaningful. Otherwise, the warships we send can only become the prey of German dive bombers."

Stuka, roaring over the whole of Europe, that unique scream is the impression of World War II. At the same time, this dive bomber attacks warships without ambiguity.

If we do not seize air supremacy, the deployment of the navy is meaningless.

In the previous war, they could not effectively control the air control. The German air force was too powerful. BF109 and fw190 flew wantonly in the French sky and could not stop them at all!

But now, they must seize the air supremacy, that is, the air supremacy over the Strait. Only under the protection of the air force and the dispatch of the navy can it be meaningful.

"Admiral dowdin, will give us air control." Ramsey said: "now, we have no time to wait. Once the expeditionary army loses its faith, it is easy to surrender all."

Although he was reluctant at that time, Admiral dowdin had no choice but to pull out his fighter force to help seize air control!

Time is running out. When the last hope disappears, the British Expeditionary Force in the encirclement circle can easily embark on the road of surrender.

Now, now, prepare the warship!

While the navy was preparing warships, the fighter units of the air force also began to take off.

General dowdin did not analyze it from the perspective of the interests of the whole Britain, but he looked further.

When France lost the war, Britain became the last and most critical strategic place. The Germans will certainly try their best to conquer Britain.

The early arrival is definitely bombers. Then the British fighter forces will have a heavy task. They should protect their own airspace!

Now, he has a hunch of how difficult the situation will be in the future. Every pilot and fighter under him are valuable.

Dowdin's vision has always been long-term. After the Germans began to develop BF109, he had a premonition of danger. With his strong support, Machel successfully transformed the racing aircraft into a fighter.

Even before all kinds of technical faults were overcome, he had placed an order. He knew that there was no time to wait.

This is fire breathing.

The biggest difference from flamethrower in history is that Rolls Royce went bankrupt. The Merlin engine needed for flamethrower has died out. Even, many technicians have gone to Germany.

However, the deep foundation of a big country is shown at this time. Xierik can stop the Merlin engine, but can't stop the Centaur engine. This advanced air-cooled engine is installed on the flamethrower. The 1800 horsepower engine has long been equipped with flamethrower. It has good maneuverability, which can be comparable to German fighters!

However, up to now, the heat dissipation problem of the air-cooled engine with fire has not been completely solved. Therefore, the pilot with fire has more reason to fly with the cockpit cover open.

When it was first developed, dowdin placed orders for 300 aircraft. Later, he continued to place underground orders. So far, he has placed orders for more than 2000 aircraft.

Among them, the super Marin company has 1160, while lefey's automobile factory is also about 1000. However, due to the delayed delivery of engines, the total output of flamethrower is less than 500 so far!

It is far from enough to defend the sky over Britain. According to dowdin, there should be at least tens of thousands of these five hundred jets! In particular, tens of thousands of experienced pilots are needed!

Now, Churchill issued an order to fully cooperate with the generator operation. In this case, he had no choice but to do his best to mobilize more than 200 flamethrowers and fly to the airport on this side of the Strait.

He could not mobilize the rest of the squadrons, because they were still flying and spitting fire. They had only been equipped for a few months. If they were driven to the battlefield, it would be almost like dying. At the same time, he did not mobilize other fighter forces and fly the troops of old biplane, which would not increase the war results for the Germans?

Lee air force base.

The sharp voice echoed over the whole base. This is the horn of battle!

After hearing the sound of dispatch, all the pilots ran out of the preparation room. They ran to the apron, where there were fighters that they had just completed maintenance and could dispatch at any time.

Here, three squadrons, squadrons 19, 66 and 611, all of which are the latest Spitfire fighters of the same color.

The nose is high, and its nose is obviously a circle larger than the fire jet in history.

At the front was Henry Carson, the commander of the 19th squadron. He was a tall Scotsman with golden hair. While running, he was covered in the flight cap.

He climbed into his fighter, put on his parachute and fastened his seat belt. He shouted to the ground crew, "stay away and prepare to start the engine."

He was busy in the cockpit. He pumped oil manually two or three times, and then pressed the electromagnetic switch to start.

"Buzz, buzz." The front engine emits black smoke. This multi cylinder engine takes time to start.

After the black smoke jumped out, finally, all the cylinders worked normally.

The ground crew gestured to him that the engine was normal. He released the brake and slid to the runway.
